“Always appreciate the love you give to Tucker when we’re away. On top of taking such wonderful care of our boy we appreciate you also brining in packages.”

“Raven is such a sweet soul! She was truly amazing with our pup. We are incredibly happy we found her to take care of our girl while we were out of town. Raven made sure to document each visit with the cutest photos! She is very trustworthy, we definitely have her come back to our home to watch out pup next time!”

“Denver is a responsible pet caregiver. He was prompt every morning and evening. He kept me up to date on Maizey’s visits. If he is not sure of something he is not afraid to message you for clarification. He took good care of my furbaby and I would definitely use him again.”


“Haley is so great to work with! We have used her to let our dog out a few times and will continue to use her for drop ins/boarding. Very comfortable with her, and never worried about our fur child when he’s with her. Highly suggest!”

“Lori is fabulous! She took EXCELLENT care of our babies. We even forgot to get a preferred treat for our dog to take her pills in and Lori went out of her way to get it so our girl wouldn’t be sad. She went above and beyond! All of our animals (even our most skittish cat) loved her immediately. Her daily updates after every visit made us feel so at ease during our trip. Also normally after a trip our babies are standoffish or SUPER clingy and they’re acting as if we haven’t even been gone. She made their lives feel normal and kept their routine. This was our first time using Rover, and we’re so very pleased with Lori’s care for our babies! We will definitely use her sitting services again.”

“Lee Marie is amazing. We a lot of dogs and she’s so patient and sweet. She responds quick if there are any changes and is very accommodating. We are very thankful for her.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced dog owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. My golden retriever, Scout, has taught me firsthand that every dog deserves patience, attention, exercise, and lots of love. Whether your pup is energetic and adventure-loving or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to tailor their care to their individual needs. I enjoy daily walks, outdoor time, play sessions, and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I know how hard it can be to be separated from your furry family member, which is why I’m always happy to provide regular updates, photos, videos, and messages so you can have peace of mind throughout the day. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel completely comfortable and cared for. I genuinely love dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I would be honored to provide reliable, attentive care that makes your experience as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, daily exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Your pet will rarely be left alone and will be treated like part of the family while in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy under supervision. I also share my home with Scout, my friendly golden retriever, who loves making new friends and gets along wonderfully with people, dogs, cats, and other animals. I have experience caring for pets with a variety of needs, including separation anxiety, senior care, medication administration, and injectable medications. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to provide a calm, cozy, and stress-free environment where your pet is treated like family. Whether your furry friend needs extra attention, playtime, cuddles, or specialized care, you can trust that they will be in caring and capable hands.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life! I graduated Austin Peay with a Bachelor’s in Agriculture and concentrated in Veterinary Technology. While I was in school, I worked at a boarding facility and daycare. I worked in an animal hospital for over 3 years until I had my son in November. I stay home with my son now as a full time mom. My veterinary experience allows me to administer medication, provide extraordinary care, and give lots of love! I currently am a stay at home mom to my son who was born in November! Our days are open and willing to help out families with their fur babies! I have 4 dogs of my own- 2 senior small girls, a senior lab (though she doesn’t act like it), and a middle aged silly boy! They are all friendly and welcoming to any animal in our home. I do have an unfenced yard but do have runners and will leash walk all animals in my yard. I am able to crate any animal if necessary.
About: We’ve always had pets since I was little. I love animals and can’t wait to welcome your pet to our home for visiting and a fun little day trip or staycation. My children love helping with our furry friends getting exercise too. We’ll be sure they get some R & R too! Feel free to reach out and we’ll discuss needs personally as each pet is different. Typically I’m able to accommodate any needs for you and your pet. Feel free to reach out and we’ll discuss needs personally as each pet is different.
