“I cannot say enough good things about Stephanie! Our dog was SO well taken care of while she was with Stephanie and her family. We got lots of pictures, videos and updates and felt completely at ease the whole time we were on vacation. We would 100% recommend using Stephanie!”
“If there was a way to leave 10 STARS I would. Kaylyn was great with my toy poodle. I got pictures and videos of my dog enjoying her days playing, relaxing on the couch, and having a lazy day sunning. Ginger was just as comfortable and happy with her as she is at home. I had no worries or concerns and was able to enjoy my vacation. I will be using Kaylyn again, it’s home away from home. Thank you!”
“Christa was amazing! She communicated daily with photos and updates on our two dogs. We were gone for six nights. Both drop off and pick up were easy and quick. Our dogs were worn out when I picked them up which let me know they had plenty of space and time to play and roam. I would book with Crista again in the future. She treated our dogs like family, and even took an Easter posed photo of our dogs! :)”
“Kristen is the best..... hands down! My fur baby gets anxiety when I have to leave her. Often times, after I pick her up from a sitter, I have to take her to the vet to get an antihistamine because she develops a nervous itch. This is not the case when she stays with Kristen. When I pick her up, she is just fine and at ease. Kristen sends pics and also frequent updates. She is a sweetheart who truly loves what she does!”
“Our Sophia stayed with Nancy and Stan this weekend. They sent lots of updates and sweet pictures. They loved our maltipoo as if she were their own. You can tell they genuinely love and have a heart for animals. Overall we had a very great experience with them. 10/10 Definitely recommend :)”
“We had an excellent experience boarding with Jaxen! She was extremely flexible with us on drop off due to unforeseen circumstances. She has a very nice kennel house that was clean and spacious for the dogs and a large yard for them to run around in throughout the day! She sent us pictures of Ranger playing and he had a big smile on his face, so I’m sure he enjoyed his stay. Thank you!!”
“Lola seemed to really enjoy her stay with Tish. She had lots of sweet furry friends to hang out with while we were away. She came back to us calm and relaxed like she'd been at a spa. I highly recommend Tish as a sitter. She is clearly experienced with many different dog breeds and has a perfect demeanor for putting your pup at ease. You can relax knowing your best friend is in good hands.”
About: I love animals and have always had a dog plus some fun family pets like gerbils, turtles, fish, and a cockatiel! I often care for my children’s pets when they are out of town. They have a variety of breeds: Mini Golden Doodle, Great Dane, Pitbull, Rottweiler, Lab with puppies, and cats. I’m comfortable with providing your pet with any medications or following special instructions, because I know how important their health is to you. I’d be happy to care for all of your pets. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and can make most anytime work. I prefer daylight hours, and can be available on weekdays or weekends. I have a fenced backyard for your dog to play in, a nice neighborhood to go for walks, and I currently have no pets at home.
“Carrie is absolutely wonderful. She sent tons of pictures and videos and treated my Buster as her own. I was worried he wouldn’t want to come back! We’ll definitely be using Carrie as our go-to sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking. Thanks for everything, Carrie!”
“Will & Jillian were great with Rosie and were great about sending pictures and communicating with us while we were away! We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Bruno loved his stay with Jenny! He came home extremely happy, just as he was when I had dropped him off for his stay. Received daily communication with photos and videos and if any questions came up I was contacted immediately. Will definitely be booking Bruno again with Jenny. Thank you for taking great care of my baby while I was on vacation!!!”
“Julie and Buster were the absolute best doggy sitters for our recent trip. Our little man so well taken care of and Julie was great about sending updates and pictures. Thanks again Julie! Would highly recommend her care service to anyone.”
“Brandi took such wonderful care of my girl Roxy! I loved that she gave me detailed updates on how Roxy was doing and pics showing me how she spent her day. I highly recommend Brandi!”
“This was our second time leaving our boys with Stephanie and I can’t recommend her more! She’s very communicative and sends nightly messages with photos and videos of what they did for the day. We will continue to use her for our boarding needs.”
About: We have had dogs all of our lives. Retired couple in country setting. We have fenced yard and a small 16 pound mixed breed spayed femal dog of our own who is easy to get along with We are retired and able to play and interact with your dog. We can walk them as well. Safe, fenced yard to play every day. Your fur baby is in a safe. Friendly environment. Our dog Ginger loves to play with other dogs. You don't have to worry when you are away.
“Candace is so sweet. She took care of Jersey like he was her own. He was so loved he almost didn’t want to leave lol. She sent updates and communicated daily. My son felt his best friend, Jersey, was treated like family. I would recommend her to anyone!!! Can’t wait to use her again. Amazing!!”

About: I love animals and look forward to meeting yours! I currently have two dogs who have been with me for 14 and 12 years. I have cared for family and friends’ pets and enjoy any time spent with pets. I am retired and have plenty of free time to care for your pets. Since my dogs are set in their ways, I can only offer dog walks and in home visits at this time. Since my dogs are older and set in their ways, I can offer dog walks and in home visits at this time. Thanks for understanding.
“Amanda has been fantastic - she drove over before our initial dates to do a meet and greet with all of the animals as well as give us a chance to show her where everything was at. We had initially scheduled her for later dates but we had an emergency and needed her the next day over the holidays, and she was thankfully available. She sent photos and info everyday to check in and the kitties and chickens were all doing well upon our return. We will continue to have her back when we need longer term in home stays for our dogs as well!”
“It was evident when we first met her, JaNiya is an animal lover. She’s knowledgeable about animals and their needs. She was patient with our scaredy cat and let her slowly get used to the new human in the house. JaNiya is very kind and she was respectful of our home. We will definitely request her to housesit/cat sit for us again.”
About: I have years of experience caring for cats through pet sitting and TrustedHousesitters. I also spent a summer volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I worked with animals of all personalities and temperaments. Along with owning a cat of my own, I’ve also fostered cats, both kittens and senior hospice cats, which has given me experience helping cats adjust to new environments and caring for different needs and personalities. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet while you’re away. Whether your cat is playful, shy, affectionate, or independent, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in your absence. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, playtime, and giving cats the patience and attention they need to feel at ease.
“I requested a last minute stay from Madison and she was able to save the day and watch our house and kitty cat. She sent photo updates of my kitty and was very nice house guest. She made sure to clean our home and asked questions when necessary.”
About: I’ve always had dogs, we have a golden doodle and a labradoodle back home. In my current home I have a 2 year old mixed breed rescue. I was a beach volleyball player at the University of South Carolina and have been in PA school at South Collge for the last year. I have always had a love for pets and would love to spend my summer helping take care of other people’s dogs. I have experience training dogs, with big dogs and with rescues. I will be in Chattanooga for 6 weeks completing my ER rotation and would love to help take care of your pets while I’m in the city. I am a former beach volleyball player at South Carolina (go gamecocks!) and am currently in my clinical year of PA school. My schedule varies which allows me flexibility week to week to be able to take care of dogs in addition to working. I am able to take dogs in my townhouse, so long as they get along with my dog. I am right near walking trails which makes daily exercise easy.
“Brianna is outstanding! She is professional, dedicated, knowledgeable and executed all instructions with care and respect. Our 2 skid-dish cats warmed up to her instantly which gave me peace of mind and I am thoroughly impressed with the level of excellence she provided.”
“Perri is so kind and professional! I was skeptical about using this service (first time user) and she made me a very comfotable by meeting up with me before-hand! She was very helpful and did a great job with my puppy!”
About: I specialize in providing personalized care tailored to each cat’s unique needs whether they love snuggles or prefer their personal space. As a Fear Free Certified professional, I prioritize creating a stress free environment, ensuring your feline feels safe and comfortable while you're away. From feeding and playtime to administering medication and maintaining routines, I’m dedicated to giving your cat the best care possible.
About: Cats are my specialty! I currently own four and I've taken care of cats since I was a teenager. I love keeping them happy, curious, and comfortable, whether they’re playful kittens, confident adults, or seniors who need extra care. I tailor my approach to each cat’s personality, providing playtime, cuddles, feeding, and even medication when needed. I’m patient, attentive, and reliable, making sure every cat feels safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. With experience caring for multiple cats at once, I can manage different moods and routines, giving each feline the attention and care they deserve.
About: I have taken care of many animals since I was around 5. They have been part of my life since I was born. I have experience with bottle feeding animals, senior care, special needs babies, and much more. I can guarantee that your babies will be in the best hands as I will treat them like my own. I am available 7 days a week! Message me and we can find a time that works best with your schedule. I don’t mind to travel as well I will treat your fur baby and your home with nothing but respect. I can come and walk, give potty breaks, feed, give play time. Anything you need, I can be there.
About: To comfort any animal brings comfort to myself. I have experience with all kinds of pets and love all animals but cats are what you’d find in my home. It’s a common misconception that cats don’t require much attention but as a domesticated animal they thrive on human companionship while also having many natural instincts to accommodate. Some require more attention than others depending on their personality. One of the most important instincts to satisfy is the need to hunt/play. There are some automatic or interactive toys that work well but for the most part the best toy is something on the end of a string attached to a wand/rod and their human’s participation. This way you can mimic the evasive movements of an actual prey for your cat to hunt. This provides exercise and stimulation and I would be happy to play with your cat(s) I’m very good at befriending anxious or less trusting cats and identifying the things that exacerbate their anxiety and finding solutions to comfort them. I also have experience administering medications. With a cat the easiest route of administration is a liquid solution mixed in with some wet food or treat or squirted into the back side of the mouth with an oral syringe. Giving a cat a pill can be more difficult but it can be done. I would wrap them in a towel or blanket, lubricate pill so it doesn’t stick to fingers or tongue, tilt head back and insert pill into back of the mouth, return head to level position and rub their throat and/or slightly blow on the nose to stimulate swallowing reflexes, then give them a treat and love them! When possible I scoop our 3 cats’ boxes after every use. I’m happy to clean and scoop your cat’s box(es) with the same vigilance. A clean litter box is one factor in ensuring a healthy and happy cat!
About: Growing up on a farm in rural middle Tennessee, my interest and compassion in animals started at an early age. From turkey to dogs to goats, I’ve cared for many species and feel truly connected to all creatures. Today, providing you and your little loved one the proper care they deserve allows me to further that connection. As a cat owner myself, I understand that as a member of your family, your pets safety and security is of the utmost importance. With my services, you are guaranteed a safe and loving environment for your pet.

“WOW!!!! I was blown away by the level of care and love my dog received in Lauren's care!! The property is a dog's dream come true! It's fully fenced, and there were other friendly dogs for my dog to play with all day. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Lauren! I will most definitely take my dog back to her if I need a sitter again!”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing!!!!!!! She sent pics throughout the time she had them and I just knew they were so loved. Thank you again! You are our new sitter!!! Love, Claire & Izzy”
“Bruno had a blast hanging out with Justin for the day! He comes home tired and happy. After he dropped Bruno off, Bruno sat at the gate wondering where his friends went! Justin is amazing- stop looking for another sitter because you’ve found The One!”
“Gaby was very flexible with my fluctuating schedule. She was also very welcoming and patient with my pup. She reported back about his day and how he behaved during day care. I highly recommend Gaby.”
“Emily and Matt are excellent canine caregivers. This was Chloe’s first experience staying with folks other than our family and she did magnificent because of their loving care. So pleasant and caring, they took great care of our senior dog. A huge shout out to them and we highly recommend Emily and Matt to care for your pet.”
“Crista is amazing! Great communication and my pup had a blast. It’s always hard leaving your dog with someone new but I was immediately comfortable when I met Crista. Highly recommend her if you are in need of dog care.”
“George and his family took excellent care of my dog, Fennec. I got regular updates and a couple of photos, so I never worried. My nervous boy, Fenn, settled in easily with George and the kids. I will definitely take Fenn there again. I highly recommend!”

About: “Little Friend Inn” offers walking, boarding in our home, and drop-in visits in your home. We care most about your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness. Our home is clean and smoke-free. We make it a priority to ensure your pet has a comfortable experience, and we enjoy giving them special perks that make them happy. As a homeschool mom of three delightful teenagers, I am at home much of the time. Our family will enjoy spoiling your pooch with scratches, rubs, playtimes, and lap times if desired.
“Stephanie was very kind and attentive to Biscotti's food, drink, and activity needs. She monitored B's social activity with her dog and two other "guest Rovers" diligently. Biscotti was calm, joyful, and appropriately tired after a full day of socialization. I would highly recommend Stephanie.”
About: With over 10 years in pet sitting experience and 5 training and handling working dogs, I am confident in my ability to responsibly care for your loved one. I’ve centred my life around dogs and would love to have yours join! I have a special interest in animal husbandry, I am skilled in nail cuts, coat maintenance, and teeth cleans. I can accommodate nutrition needs. Skilled puppy raiser! Specializing in proper socialization, crate training, house training, and potty training. I have trained and worked with security dogs on patrol and in detection profiles. We currently train and compete in the German protection sport, Schutzhund. Very competent with working breeds. I work from home so the dogs fit into my daily routine. My dogs and I enjoy morning walks of the property, afternoon play time, and evening family activities. Your dogs will fit right in with our daily lifestyle as if they are part of our family. I have a small fenced yard, secure outdoor kennels, and about 2 acres of open property for dogs to enjoy. Dogs are always fully supervised when not in secure areas. I offer recall training with guest dogs in order to allow them full use of the property safely. Boarding dogs will sleep inside my house in their designated crate and then be included in family life and activities during the days. My personal dogs also sleep in crates. I believe this is important for dogs to have their own personal space to relax and feel safe enough to spend the night. Temperament dependent, dogs will be rotated in and out of daily life with the use of crates. However no dog will spend hours on end in crates. There is a rotation system ensuring everyone gets attention and exercise with time to be out and stretch.
About: Hey there! My name is Jen, and I would love to take care of your babies for you! A bit about me: I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician of 10+ years, with the majority of my experience being in surgery/anesthesia and working in emergency triage. My husband is a Veterinarian/Surgeon with 25 years under his belt this year. He does not help with care and is not responsible for my clients, but is always available for advice and input. In addition, I am a Certified Feline Behaviorist (think Jackson Galaxy!) and thoroughly enjoy working with feline behavior concerns to help keep cats in their homes. I also have experience with basic level dog training and work with a variety of local clients on basic obedience, potty training, crate training, bite inhibition for puppies, etc. in addition to professional pet sitting, boarding, daycare, and basic grooming, I am capable and available for a variety of veterinary technician services like medication/fluid administration, insulin administration, bandage changes, nail trims, etc. I also have a solid understanding of disease and parasite transmission as well as toxicity exposure/ingestion risks and act accordingly with the pets in my care. I interned for several years at Vilas Zoo in Madison, WI and for a year at Chattanooga Zoo here in TN. My husband did a residency at Montgomery Zoo in Alabama, and we met 10 years ago when we both used to own large reptile breeding businesses, primarily working with a variety of snakes. I have also spent years as a wildlife rehabber, working primarily with rabbits, squirrels, song birds, opossums, and native reptiles. Thus in addition to dogs and cats, I am well-versed in the care and biological needs of practically every species you can think of! In addition to my professional skills, education, and experience, I have immense personal experience -- essentially from the moment I was born. My mother has run a cat rescue in Wisconsin for decades, and my grandfather did the same before her. I also have been rescuing cats for the past 20 years. My parents have always kept a wide variety of pets, ranging from cats and dogs to fish, reptiles, small mammals/pocket pets, and exotics, so I have been immersed in caring for almost every kind of pet you can think of since before I can remember. I also have always had an invisible neon sign above my head that only animals can see, which has made it so that all injured, young, or lost pets and wildlife find their way to me no matter where I am or what I'm doing -- even in Army basic training when I was 20, when I rescued a 10-day-old stray kitten from drowning due to a burst pipe underneath our barracks -- so I have always had animals in my care at any given moment. In our personal lives, we have two children: my 19-year-old son and our 8-year-old daughter, both of whom have been raised in animal rescue, veterinary medicine, pet care and behavior training, etc. and have extensive skills and knowledge of their own which brings me immense pride to see. We have 4 kitties and a Boston Terrier, all of whom are very comfortable with the various visiting pet friends that stay with us. They are also spayed/neutered, UTD on vaccines, negative for all common communicable diseases, and UTD on heartworm/flea/tick prevention. My boarding pets have spaces away from our pets if necessary, so interaction is not required and separation is just fine! I have never known a life without being surrounded by animals, without my clothes being covered in fur, and without being called to help care for animals in need. It is not just what I do, but who I am, down to my very core, and brings me immense joy and gratification. I cannot begin to express how much I love what I do. I love caring for others' pets and giving them the ability to be loved and well cared for when their own loving parents cannot be with them for whatever reason. I also have frequently helped clients become aware of health concerns within their pets that they may not otherwise notice, then can have their regular DVM evaluate and address it -- ranging from skin allergies to yeast infections in ears to heart murmurs to dental disease. I feel that my career position, my education, my decades of experience, my knowledge, and my skillset, not to mention having my DVM husband handy for advice and knowledge, puts me ahead of most pet caretakers. It ensures that your babies are in the safest and most experienced, well-prepared hands they could possibly be in! I currently work remote from home as an emergency triage technician and am the Manager of Performance, Training, and Team Success for GuardianVets, so I am available 7 days per week, 24 hours per day to care for pets in my home. I also have some open availability from 8am to 10pm, so I am able to do drop-ins, potty breaks, feed, scoop litter boxes, change cages/bedding, etc. 2-3 times per day before the final visit for the evening. I can make just about any request work! Care depends on the individual pet, their breed, age, personality and needs, as well as what training and rules their parents have in place for them, and whether they are boarding in my 3600 sq. ft. home or I am caring for them in your home. Pets boarding in my home or coming for Doggy Daycare must be UTD on all core vaccines for their species with verification from their veterinarian. For puppies under 16 weeks of age, they must be UTD with the most recent booster for their age. All puppies under 16 weeks or puppies who have not yet completed all 4 vaccine boosters yet will be the ONLY boarding client I keep during their duration of stay in order to best protect their developing immune system. As you would expect, my home and all supplies (crates, bowls, etc) are thoroughly sanitized after each client. Bowls are washed in the dishwasher at over 140 degrees to sanitize, and all floors and kennels are sanitized with Kennel Care (an effective veterinary-grade disinfectant against Parvo and all other infectious agents). I do also require that all dogs boarding here or coming for Doggy Daycare are either cat-friendly or cat-neutral (meaning they ignore them). We cannot board any dogs who are cat aggressive, small dog aggressive, or obsessive cat/dog chasers, due to the risk to our pets. Even though we have a separate space for boarding dogs, the risk of injury or death is too great if they were to somehow get loose and come into contact with them. I am sorry. This specifically means dogs who have a known history of active aggression toward prey animals or an excessive interest/obsession with chasing small dogs and cats. Simply being vocal toward cats or showing interest and wanting to gently investigate is not aggression and is fine. If you aren't sure how your baby would be, you are absolutely welcome to bring them over for a trial meeting on-leash to see how they do with them first! I will always text daily updates and pics to let you know how your babies are doing and what they are up to! I am an obsessive picture taker anyway, especially with animals. :) BOARDING DOGS: I require all dogs to be crate-trained or at least comfortable being in a crate for safety reasons (i.e. if I need to leave the house for any reason, they must be able to be crated). I keep large and medium sized comfortable, secure crates with comfortable washed fresh blankets for boarding dogs, or you are welcome to bring your own! Most boarding dogs are kept in our master suite so that I can supervise them at all times. On the rare occasion where we have boarding clients from two different families, we will set the other one up in my adult son's room. They are never alone or left ignored. For outgoing dogs who adapt well to any new situation and do well with other animals, they are allowed to run around the house with us, chill on the couch, hang out on the bed and watch TV, etc, unless their parents have trained them not to be on furniture, then we uphold this same rule for them here for consistency and they are offered blankets or beds on the floor. This is always under strict supervision, no unsupervised time loose. For dogs who are more nervous/anxious in new spaces, they are crated and given 3-5 intervals of supervised 1:1 time loose in my large master suite rather than the full house, and away from the cats or our dog if they may upset them. For the most nervous babies, I usually recommend remaining crated in a larger crate so they have room to move around, as they feel most secure there, with regular potty breaks. Similar to boarding at a veterinary clinic. All boarding dogs get lots of outside play time in our yard, always on a 30-foot training leash that is attached to my hand at all times. This lets them run and play and have fun while still always being under my control and security. I do not believe in using tie-outs nor do I ever leave a dog outside alone -- whether that is a client's dog or my own. Feeding is based on their own individual preferences and requirements/instructions from their pet parents. I have all necessary bowls here, just need their food provided. BOARDING CATS: For kitties, the most outgoing, friendly, and adaptable cats are set up in our daughter's bedroom so that they have a whole room with a comfy bed and someone to sleep with at night, as well as a clean sanitized litterbox (unless they bring their own). They are also provided plenty of cat-safe toys and clean blankets to lay on. I can provide litter unless your baby has a preference for a specific type/brand, which is no issue! My daughter LOVES having boarding cats with her and will play with them with wand toys, fuzzy mice, and laser pointers for as long as they are willing, and snuggle them in bed while playing Minecraft. I take care of all the care essentials and always have hands-on time with them to ensure all is well. For the more anxious/scared kitties who prefer to hide and have less interaction, they are kept either in a large multi-level cat condo with a litterbox at the bottom, or a large wire dog crate with the litterbox on one side and a plastic step stool on the other so they can sit elevated on top or hide underneath. I set these up inside my master bedroom if I have no boarding dogs, or my daughter's room if we do. They are allowed to decompress in a quiet warm space, and I will spend lots of time petting and loving on them if they would like it, otherwise I give them their space with just periodic check-ins and caretaking (litter, food, water, etc). BOARDING EXOTICS: Species-dependent, we can discuss specifics! DOGGIE DAYCARE: Exactly the same as boarding, just for shorter periods, whether that's an hour or two while you attend a doctor appt, or 8 hours while you work! PETSITTING IN YOUR HOME: I am fully able to stay 24/7 if you prefer, or I can just stay during the day and then head home around 9pm and back again the next morning. For clients who wish me to stay 24/7 in their home, I will need access to high-speed WiFi in order to work my remote job overnight, as I work third shift. I do not have to be isolated from pets for this job, they can hang out with me. :) While I am in your home, I can sleep either on the couch or in a guest bedroom if you have one and are comfortable, either is fine with me. For couches, I will bring my own pillow and blanket. I will not do any cooking or anything that requires making a mess or cleaning up, and guarantee your home will be left in the same condition/state it was when I arrived, and will take any trash with me when I go. Your pets will sleep wherever they are used to sleeping, so if that's with a person, they are very welcome to sleep with me! I can let them out every 1-2 hours, including while working for puppies and seniors who need overnight potty breaks. DROP-IN VISITS: For pets who stay at home and have me come over for care, I usually come over 2-3x per day for potty breaks, play breaks, a walk, meal times, litter scooping, cage cleaning, etc. and overall health checks to ensure all is well. I will always treat them as if they were my own babies and ensure they get lots of love and exercise to burn off that energy during the short time we have!
About: Hi! My name is Sammi and I have 12+ years of taking care of all varieties of animals. I currently own 2 dogs (1 aussie and 1 recently rescued great pyreneese) , 2 cats, 4 horses and 2 reptiles of my own. I have worked with rescues, shelters and non-profits in the past so I am skilled in caring for animals with all kinds of needs. I also work from home with a flexible schedule so I am able to accommodate special requests and special needs animals during the week for those that need more attention. I look forward to speaking with you about how I can best help you and your animals! I currently work from home with flexible hours so am available usually from 8am to 8pm each day, with flexibility where needed. I currently walk my own dogs a mile or two every other day, with them being walked on the property every 4 hours for exercise. I live on 8 acres with woods so plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. I currently do not have a fenced in yard, but have multiple tether setups and/or long line leashes to walk dogs on and let them roam a bit while controlled. My 2 dogs are males who are friendly with others and love to play outside in the backyard. Since I am home during the day, all animals get lots of cuddles in my house (allowed on furniture) and constant interaction of bones, toys, tug of war, toys etc. I do have separate areas that dogs can be crated in alone if preferred. I do also have 2 cats that are dog friendly but have their own room they can be closed off in if needed.
About: I’m a 46year-old pet lover with no kids of my own—my heart belongs to Oly, my service-trained Aussie Doodle! Growing up with dogs has given me a lifelong love and understanding of our furry friends. As the owner of an online business, I work from home and have plenty of time for walks, cuddles, and play. Whether it’s fun adventures, learning new skills, or cozy downtime, your pup will get all the love, care, and attention they deserve while they’re with me! Oly is fully trained off leash, and gets along with dogs, cats, and kids. He comes with me to sit. I have a flexible schedule, which means I can easily adapt to your puppy’s needs throughout the day. My own dog is fully trained and comfortable around all kinds of animals, so your pup will have a calm and friendly environment to thrive in. I provide comprehensive care for my own dog by grooming and trimming his hair and nails myself, ensuring he’s always comfortable and well-maintained. I also keep up with his training regularly, which has made him a well-behaved companion who accompanies me everywhere. Since I work from home, I’m able to offer plenty of time for walks, play, cuddles, and relaxation. When caring for others’ puppies in their home, I bring the same level of attentiveness and dedication, tailoring my approach to meet each puppy’s unique needs while ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy.
About: People always ask me to dog sit their fur babies because they know how much I love animals! I’ve had pets since I was a little girl. I currently have an 8 month old Shih Tzu and a Maine Coon cat. Both are great with other animals. I am available any time, day or night. I am a real estate agent, so I set my own hours, which is very convenient. I mostly work from home, unless I’m out showing houses or attending closings. I am married and have two little girls that are ages 7 and 11 years old. My daughters are also animal lovers, and love helping me take care of other people’s pets. We have a large front yard and a long driveway, so there is plenty of room to run, and we are not too close to the main road. Their are lots of trees and neighbors are pretty spread out.
About: I have owned pets my entire life. They are like kids to me. They are treated with respect and care equivalently so. I like pets more than humans. 😆 I own my own business and I work from home. I set my own schedule. I am very flexible. This allows me to give your pet lots of attention. I have a fenced in yard. I have a Pet door into the yard so they can come and go freely, when they have the “need”.

“JaNiya was amazing with my dog, Goose! I can always tell if he’s been well taken care of by how calm he is when I return from work. She even gave some love to my cat, too!”
About: I'm very passionate about dogs, animals, wildlife, etc! I love to hike and be active outdoors as much as possible. I have a variety of animal experience, I grew up on an Indiana farm caring for many animals. I worked at Petsmart as a dog groomer for 2 years, so I can trim/grind nails and bathe your dog :) I also worked at a veterinary hospital for 2 semesters. I'm currently in graduate school going for Master's of Biology. My classes are online so I have a very flexible, open schedule! Dog walking and sitting will help fund my schooling. I have experience working with almost all dog breeds, so I am able to personalize time spent with each dog according to their needs and comfort level. I have dog sat for many friends and family members in the past, even some with health concerns. I always train my own dogs, and have gone through Petsmart training curriculum to gain more knowledge on pet training. I would love to help enhance your pet's life in any way I can :) I have an open schedule, and can accommodate short or long term needs. I will make time to accommodate for your dog's preferential treatment and love. My 3 dogs are all unique and rescue pets, and require varied attention and diets, which I handle on a daily basis.Your dog's happiness is my priority
About: I have years of experience dog sitting through TrustedHousesitters, where I’ve cared for pets with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I also spent a summer volunteering at a local animal shelter, which gave me experience working with animals of all shapes and sizes. I have dogs and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own animals. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just someone to keep them company, I’m happy to make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant. I only work MIDS on Fridays (normally 12:30-8:30) and Sunday mornings. Any other days I have full flexibility. I always try to make pets feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I follow their normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I know every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I adjust my care to fit their needs. Some pets want lots of playtime and attention, while others prefer a calmer environment and space. I also make sure owners stay updated with pictures and messages so they can feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away. I also tend to stay very close to the house. I like to stay with the animals.

About: Professional, Empathic Petcare 🥰🐾 From an Expert who worked with veterinarians for 3 years and has been grooming dogs for 11 years (that's me ❤️) and special interest in holistic medicine and nutrition. My petsitting and grooming focuses on the health and emotional well-being of your baby. They'll be having a fun vacation in my home or have their fun pet nanny come to them🥰 🐾 Pet care fits into my daily schedule very well, as I make my own hours, leaving me more time to prioritize your fur baby 🥰 They'll be staying in my comfortable, 2 bed 1 bath home on 1/2 acre with fenced in backyard. Not to be left unattended in the yard since it is made from garden fencing, and small dogs unable to climb fencing is preferred. Fence climbing dogs should not come here because there is a fast road adjacent to the slower road that I live on. When I leave to run errands I will sequester my cats in another room from the dogs. I go with the flow, and understand every animal will behave differently so please let me know if your baby has any special needs or habits!

“I cannot say enough good things about Stephanie! Our dog was SO well taken care of while she was with Stephanie and her family. We got lots of pictures, videos and updates and felt completely at ease the whole time we were on vacation. We would 100% recommend using Stephanie!”
“Christa was amazing! She communicated daily with photos and updates on our two dogs. We were gone for six nights. Both drop off and pick up were easy and quick. Our dogs were worn out when I picked them up which let me know they had plenty of space and time to play and roam. I would book with Crista again in the future. She treated our dogs like family, and even took an Easter posed photo of our dogs! :)”
“Kristen is the best..... hands down! My fur baby gets anxiety when I have to leave her. Often times, after I pick her up from a sitter, I have to take her to the vet to get an antihistamine because she develops a nervous itch. This is not the case when she stays with Kristen. When I pick her up, she is just fine and at ease. Kristen sends pics and also frequent updates. She is a sweetheart who truly loves what she does!”
“First overnight visit with Malia for my 2 boys. They seem to have had a great time. Malia was very responsive to my messages and it is obvious she is knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors. She was sweet and took the time to listen to all my information and feeding instructions regarding my 2 picky eaters. When I picked them up, they were both happy and content. It was obvious they were well cared for.”
“We had an excellent experience boarding with Jaxen! She was extremely flexible with us on drop off due to unforeseen circumstances. She has a very nice kennel house that was clean and spacious for the dogs and a large yard for them to run around in throughout the day! She sent us pictures of Ranger playing and he had a big smile on his face, so I’m sure he enjoyed his stay. Thank you!!”
“Lola seemed to really enjoy her stay with Tish. She had lots of sweet furry friends to hang out with while we were away. She came back to us calm and relaxed like she'd been at a spa. I highly recommend Tish as a sitter. She is clearly experienced with many different dog breeds and has a perfect demeanor for putting your pup at ease. You can relax knowing your best friend is in good hands.”
“My Bleu had a great time hanging with George and Ginger! He ran straight into their fenced in yard as soon as I let him out of the car and was exhausted when I got him home. He spent a long weekend with them while I went on a bike ride. I would definitely trust him to keep my boy anytime.”
About: I love animals and have always had a dog plus some fun family pets like gerbils, turtles, fish, and a cockatiel! I often care for my children’s pets when they are out of town. They have a variety of breeds: Mini Golden Doodle, Great Dane, Pitbull, Rottweiler, Lab with puppies, and cats. I’m comfortable with providing your pet with any medications or following special instructions, because I know how important their health is to you. I’d be happy to care for all of your pets. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and can make most anytime work. I prefer daylight hours, and can be available on weekdays or weekends. I have a fenced backyard for your dog to play in, a nice neighborhood to go for walks, and I currently have no pets at home.
“Megan and Chris were great with our pups! Sent lots of pics, which was very helpful in easing our minds about being away from them for a few days. Pups came back happy and healthy! Will definitely book again when the need arises.”
“Will & Jillian were great with Rosie and were great about sending pictures and communicating with us while we were away! We will definitely use them again in the future!”

Received daily communication with photos and videos and if any questions came up I was contacted immediately. Will definitely be booking Bruno again with Jenny. Thank you for taking great care of my baby while I was on vacation!!!”

“Parker was excellent at taking over the care of my dog after she was hit by a car. Very good communication, attended to her medication and observant of her behaviour after head trauma diagnosis.”
“This was our second time leaving our boys with Stephanie and I can’t recommend her more! She’s very communicative and sends nightly messages with photos and videos of what they did for the day. We will continue to use her for our boarding needs.”
“Beth was fantastic! Great at communicating and very kind and accommodating. Our Maggie was provided with lots of great play space and love and care! Would highly recommend to anyone!”
“Candace is so sweet. She took care of Jersey like he was her own. He was so loved he almost didn’t want to leave lol. She sent updates and communicated daily. My son felt his best friend, Jersey, was treated like family. I would recommend her to anyone!!! Can’t wait to use her again. Amazing!!”
