House Sitting in Taylorsville

“We could not recommend Rachel & Rover with more enthusiasm. Rachel was absolutely FABULOUS with our furry child, Poppins. It was a sense of release to be able to communicate with Rachel as our vacation progressed. Poppins went from hiding under the bed to comfortably sit & sleep w Rachel. She's sensitive & a little nervous. Rachel was able to build a relationship with her. Thank you for this valuable resource! Rachel is a gem-- our house was spotless, even the bed sheets & towels were laundered & changed!+ Thank you 😃”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I currently have 4 dogs and an umbrella cockatoo! I love all animals big and small! I especially love large breed dogs! I’m currently looking for a position in animal care and am looking for experience to achieve that. I have open availability currently. I’m available for house sitting, check in visits or walking services. I treat all pets like they’re my own! I understand how to interact with new pets and am aware not all pets will want contact. I enjoy sticking to a routine. I’m well versed in giving medication to dogs and keeping to a schedule if needed.

“Good dog/house sitter! She took care of my Boston Terrier, got my mail in everyday, made sure my outside plants didn't die. Bailey was very trustworthy!”

“Serenity took wonderful care of our animals just as requested. She came a day before to meet them, was on time, and our dog took to her immediately. Would definitely rebook with her in the future is needed!”

“We couldn't be happier with the care Mai and Jonathan provided for our pets, Cooper and Bec, while we were away on vacation. From the moment we left, they gave us complete peace of mind with regular updates, photos, and thoughtful communication. It's clear that they genuinely love animals and treated both Cooper and Bec like part of their own family. When we returned home, Cooper was happy and well cared for, and Bec was relaxed and content. Knowing that both our dog and cat were receiving such attentive, loving care allowed us to truly enjoy our time away. Mai and Jonathan went above and beyond to make sure all of their needs were met, and we are so grateful for the kindness and responsibility they showed. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Cooper and Bec, we would gladly have you watch them again!”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for pets is something I truly love. I have over 10 years of experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’ve dog-sat many times for friends and families, including caring for multiple pets in one home for weeks at a time (3 dogs and 4 cats). I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I also have experience with senior and special-needs pets. I once cared for an elderly German Shepherd whose back legs no longer worked. I helped with mobility, hygiene, feeding, and cleanup, and made sure she stayed comfortable and loved. This experience taught me patience, compassion, and how important gentle care is for older pets. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to give pet parents peace of mind through reliable, attentive care. I work part-time at a restaurant, so my schedule is very flexible. On days I am not working, I am available to stay with pets all day and provide overnight care. On the days that I do work, my shifts are typically about 5 hours long, which still allows me time to care for pets before and after work. If I am scheduled for a double shift, I have a 1-hour break in between, which I can use to check in on pets, walk them, and make sure they are comfortable and cared for. I always prioritize making sure pets are not left alone for long periods and maintain a consistent care routine. When caring for pets, my top priority is creating a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and house rules to ensure consistency for the pet. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, keep a close eye on pets during walks or playtime, and maintain a clean environment including food areas and litter boxes. I take time to build trust with each pet at their own pace, especially those who may be shy or anxious. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide dependable, attentive care so owners can feel completely at ease while they’re away.

“Amanda is great with Scooby! We really appreciate her communication and photos the entire time we were away. She is very trustworthy and caring, and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands!”

About: I’ve taken care of 6+ litters of puppies, the largest being 10 pups! I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes from bearded dragons to Great Danes! I currently work part time so i have plenty of time to play with your pets! I can house sit whenever I’m not booked, and quick visits will usually be around 8 am and 8 pm. Pet care is entirely up to the owners! If there are specific instructions to pet care let me know and I’ll do my best to cater to your pets needs. I can crate pets if preferred as well.

“We are so grateful for Kelly! She stayed with our three dogs from November 7–9 and took such wonderful care of them. It’s not easy managing three personalities, but she gave each of them so much love and attention. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. When we got home, the dogs were happy, calm, and clearly had been well cared for — it was such a relief to know they were in such good hands. Kelly went above and beyond, and we can tell she truly loves what she does. We’ll definitely be calling her again the next time we go out of town or just need a drop-in!!”

About: [ Pet-sitting taken seriously for your peace of mind! ] Growing up in a household full of creatures, I’ve taken care of dogs, kitties, birds, bunnies, and a pig! I have a deep love for animals and bugs. Most recently I’ve helped handle and raise puppies!! While I understand how nerve-racking it can be to leave your pets at home while you’re away, pet-sitters like me are here to monitor your pets and provide them the detailed care they deserve in the meantime. Your pets deserve the patience, attention to detail, and unconditional love I'm looking to help provide. I promise to take special care of your sweet furry family members! ♡ My schedule is open! Rover is my priority at this time. There is plenty of room in my schedule so I can take special care of your fur babies! Every morning I make sure my pets have fresh water, and then we get the zoomies out with some exercise! All of the animals in my house eat at specified times, some twice a day. I am sensitive to their needs and do notice as their behavior shifts day-to-day.

About: I’m very experienced in caring for animals having grown up around them since I was a kid. I regularly house sit for my friends cats and dogs so am comfortable around both. Im more than happy to take care of any size dog. Grew up with everything between Great Danes and Chihuahuas! I currently work full time so boarding through the week will be tough if you aren’t comfortable with your pets being by themselves through the work day. That being said, I’m very prompt in returning and, with no pets of my own, your pet will have all my attention. I am totally available on weekends for in house stays or keeping them at my apartment. For those looking for their pets to stay at my apartment, there is no yard but long sidewalks that I already walk daily. So incorporating your pets into that routine is easy. I have a locked closet to seal away any food or goodies you may send and am careful never to leave anything that could be potentially hazardous. Lots of play will be on the menu and maybe some Netflix.

About: I'm a sahm so I have flexible hours! You and your pets comfort is my biggest priority. I have a senior dog as well so I am sensitive to those needs. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible. I do go to the gym everyday so I would need to be able to do that. My son, he's 6 would be with me during the week but if it was overnights for the weekend he would not. I do not care for pets in my own home it would need to be your home. I'm happy to house sit and take them on walks.

About: I am a very active person and will keep energetic pets busy. I also have experience with caring for older dogs and making sure they are well taken care of and have everything they need. I have experience in keeping up with medication needs of dogs and ensuring they have all their necessary vitamins. I am currently going to college at KSU for mechanical engineering. In my free time I would love to care for your pets. I have a lot of time outside of school and feel that pet sitting is a great way to fill this time. I have had pets throughout my life that I watched and cared for. I made sure they were well taken care of and always had everything they needed. I have also taken care of other friends and family pets and always had a positive experience.

About: I have grown up with animals and am comfortable caring for tiny kittens to giant dogs. I have experience in training animals and better yet giving them love and care. Just let me know a little bit about your pet and I will cater to best fit their needs whether they want to be lazy around the house or go for runs or just need some belly rubs I'm here to make them happy! I have a flexible schedule to walk and/or do house visits frequently. My schedule also allows me to give nearly constant care and attention if needed for your pets. I believe every pet should get shown as much love as possible and I'm here to help!

About: I have a lifelong love for dogs and years of hands-on experience caring for them. I grew up around dogs and currently have my own pitbull named Sage, who I adopted and trained myself. She is the sweetest girl and has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and giving dogs the love and structure they need to thrive. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because animals have always been a big part of my life. I care for my own dog, Sage, every day by making sure she gets exercise, attention, and proper care. I also regularly help take care of my boyfriend’s five cats, so feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and giving them love and attention is something I’m very used to doing throughout the week. Because I’m already in the habit of caring for animals daily, it’s easy for me to incorporate pet sitting into my schedule and make sure every pet gets the time, care, and attention they deserve. When caring for pets, my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible by feeding them on schedule, making sure they have fresh water, taking dogs on walks or letting them out for bathroom breaks, and giving them plenty of attention and playtime. I also keep litter boxes clean for cats and make sure they get the affection and care they need. Because I’ve grown up around many different animals and currently care for my own dog, Sage, as well as my boyfriend’s five cats, I’m very comfortable with different personalities and needs. I’m attentive, patient, and always treat every pet like they’re my own while making sure the home stays clean and everything is exactly how the owner expects.

About: I grew up on a farm and have experience with farm animals, cats and dogs and birds. I've fostered and rehabbed many. Currently I only have my rescued "Adventure" toy poodle. I have taken care of some reptiles but will not call myself a pro. I've also raised/cared for all kinds of domesticated rodents. If your animal needs special treatment medical or has extra picky behaviors, I am willing and not afraid. I've trained most dogs in my life using hand signals and I'd love to learn your training methods. I maybe an old dog but I can learn new tricks. I am also available for house, farm and plant sitting. I am happily retired, so my time is my own. I can't think of a better way to spend it than with my pets and yours. Every home is different and pets have their specific needs. I'll listen to how you keep your pet safe and I'll follow your lead. You know best.

About: First off, we work with you! Pricing is just a base, definitely contact us to discuss what you are needing and we can figure out a price that works for us both! We are a mature, dedicated couple turning our lifelong passion for animals into a full- time retirement journey. My background includes years of working with a wildlife rescue and operating professional mobile petting zoos. My husband has helped me with petting zoos since late 2023. We are both comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and species of animals. We currently volunteer at our local animal shelter, walking and socializing dogs of all temperaments. We are also studying and learning basic obedience training and practicing with the dogs at shelter as well. With both of us focused on your pet, someone is almost always available for potty breaks, playtime, and companionship! We follow your house rules and medical instructions to the letter. We treat your pets like our own "grand-animals" - with extra spoiling and total safety. 🥰 (Prices are negotiable.) Find us on FB - Keener Pet Services We are flexible, but I do expect our business to grow. We will always do what we are able with any available time that we have. Unfortunately, we are unable to bring cats or dogs to our house. However, we can bring caged animals to our house if that kind of care is needed. We have experience with indoor bunnies, guinea pigs, geckos, hedgehogs, ferrets, bearded dragons, and snakes, just to name a few examples of animals we could bring home with us. In your home, we would request a detailed outline of what you would need done and how you'd like us to do it. We respect people and their property, so we would only go into the common areas of your home, and any areas you've requested service in.

About: I have grown up around dogs and cats all my life. I love all furry friends and have always felt an extreme love for all sorta of animals. I have always been the first to volunteer to babysit any friend’s or neighbor’s dogs and have near professional experience with caring for them. I also volunteer at the Macon Animal Shelter weekly. I am very punctual and detail oriented. I know how much pets mean to people and will treat yours like it’s my own! I am currently at Mercer University on my last year. As a senior, I have a lot of free time during the week and weekend. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I am free from 9am -5pm. I am also available for home-sitting overnight, however might need a few hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays for class. I have no pets at my house in Macon (since I am in school) but I do have 2 dogs and 4 cats back home. I have a pretty big backyard and my dogs love to be out and about. They stick to a pretty consistent food diet. I am great at following directions and am quick at learning the habits of pets. I would love to have the opportunity to get to know you and your pets!
