“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Beethoven’s stay! From the moment we met Felicia & Bradley, their family was warm, welcoming, and treated Beethoven as if he were part of their own family. They provided excellent communication throughout his stay, regularly sending pictures and videos that gave us peace of mind and allowed us to see how much fun he was having. It was clear that Beethoven was well cared for, loved, and genuinely happy in their home. In fact, he became so attached to them that he hardly wanted to leave when it was time to come home! Knowing that he was comfortable, safe, and enjoying himself made all the difference. This will definitely be Beethoven’s home away from home. We are incredibly grateful for the care and attention they provided and will not hesitate to book with them again. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and exceptional dog sitters.”

Knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands allowed me to enjoy my time away with complete peace of mind. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found a professional of her caliber.”

FIVE STARS!!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

You can really tell they treat every pet like family. I highly recommend Pamela and Barry to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and compassionate. I’ll definitely be booking again!!😊”
“Lania was absolutely amazing with our cat. We were so nervous about leaving him with someone he didn’t know but Lania put us right at ease.

About: As far back as I can remember I’ve owned or cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters you name it and I’ve probably cared for it. I love dogs the most and currently own three. Training them, caring for them, playing with them are my passions. I can bathe, trim nails, give medications, train them, walk them properly, and integrate them into packs when requested. I work from home M-F and have flexibility with my hours. I like to travel and I know the cost of putting my dogs up in boarding or day care facilities. We've decided to reduce our travel for now to save up money. I am happy to help out where needed. Please don't hesitate to ask questions. We have a fenced in yard the dogs can run and play in. We also have 2 large dog crates and one small dog crate we keep in case the dogs want/need to be isolated. When we are home our dogs are able to play inside and outside. We have parks close by and take our dogs on walks 2-3 times a day. Your pet would either walk with them or separately depending on his/her ability. We play fetch, we do commands, we can run them or play in water if it’s hot. We love dog parks and shaded walking trails as well. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home.. I work from home and can watch them inside while I work. I let them play outside several times a day as wells. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home. We have dog beds for them to lie on. We have a big yard and a pool.
“Wonderful Caregivers. They sincerely love Fur Babies. Sent lots of delightful pictures. Roscoe had a wonderful day and made a new best doggie friend and extended family. We will use Tom and Nikki again. Thanks very much!”

“Winston had a wonderful day with his new friends James, his wife De and their dogs Charlee and Chloe. James did everything we could ask for and more to make Winston's stay a success. We received lots of photos throughout the day showing all the fun Winston was having. That allowed my wife and I to enjoy our day together knowing Winston was being well cared for. This was the first time we used Rover.com and it was a great experience. We will definitely be booking with James again.”
About: Neighbors, friends and family continue to entrust me with their pets of all ages! My pup has hiked to high heights with me, but I’ve also loved many in their final, precious days. Wherever your loved one is, I’ll be sure to care for your fur babe like you would! I am a mom of one that works full time for a University from home. Monday through Friday I work from 8-5 with two 15 minute breaks and a lunch break of at least one hour. I am a triathlete that is often up at 5 AM training. Then, I go on a walk every day on my lunch and often again when I log off for the day. I’d love for your fur babe to tag along! I have two fenced in yards full of sun and plenty of shade. I have a 40 pound doodle that can keep them company and give them plenty of exercise if needed, but I can also keep them separated if that is preferred. I have fresh well water and a walking trail around our property. I can also crate your dog or offer them a bed if they need. Otherwise, your loved one will roam free with lots of play time and cuddles. Whatever your fur babe needs, I’m here to serve you!
“I had the pleasure of having Valeria watch my fur baby, and she absolutely exceeded my expectations. She was dependable, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. My pup was well cared for, happy, and calm when I got back which tells me everything I need to know. Thank You again”
About: Greetings, I am Obadina and I am a graduate of AK9i as a patrol Detection K9 handler and trainer. I went to Tennessee State for Animal Science Pre Veterinary Medicine where I learned animal husbandry. I used that experience to go on to be a vet tech as well as a pet bather and trainer. I am current K9 detection dog handler and trainer. I have experience with high drive dogs as well as nervous dogs and puppies. I can work with any and every dog, from fearful to aggressive. I also offer DeShed nail care and bathing services. DeShed services is when I remove the shedding undercoat that comes out usually during the change of seasons. It prevents mats and painful tangles which not only can relive pain and odor, but also keeps them cool during the warm summer months. It’s a very good alternative to shaving, which actually makes them hotter because their fur keeps the sun off of them . Animal Husbandry is my profession as a K9 handler. Your dogs will be treated like assets they are. It’s an hourly routine as animals respond to predictability which lowers stress levels which leads to better boarding experiences. Your asset will be housed in a climate controlled dry lockable indoor kennel run facility with a fenced in secured play area that’s easy to clean and plenty of storage for your pets supplies.
“Xionella is an excellent doggy dear care provider. My dog was happy staying with her and he made new friends with two of her dogs. I definitely will come back for her service again.”

If you’re looking for a compassionate and trustworthy sitter, I’d be thrilled to care for your furry family members. Let’s connect to discuss how I can help make your time away stress-free! Let me know if there’s anything specific you’d like to add, like pet care certifications or certain animals you specialize in! I work from home, so your dog will have full care during their stay. Routined day, down to feeding schedule, walks, bathroom breaks, etc. Followed by lots of TLC ! I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I ensure they have a clean, cozy space, stick to their usual feeding and exercise schedule, and provide plenty of attention and playtime. I’m attentive to any special instructions, such as medications or specific behavioral needs, and keep the environment secure and pet-friendly. My goal is to make them feel as relaxed and happy as possible, just like they would with their family.
About: I absolutely adore animals. When I was younger, it was my dream to go into the veterinary field (the only thing that stopped me is I have a hard time saying goodbye to any animal.) I've cared for horses and other farm animals on family and local farms, and I currently help my family and friends care for their animals when they're away with work or need help dog training. They come to me with any training questions about puppies, too. I'm experienced with potty training, crate training, socialization, regular care, and elderly pet care. I've always been involved with girl scouts, 4H (animal science), and FFA (future farmers of america), so you can trust that I am widely knowledgeable about everything from lizards to pigs to cats and dogs! Every fur baby will be in loving hands in my care. My pets come first, always. I wake up 5-6am and take care of pets, including feeding, medicine, and litter boxes, then spend some time outdoors whether that's a walk or spending some time in the window to bird watch with cats. My cat eats 3 small meals a day, so lunch time comes next, followed by calm and wind down time. I spend an hour minimum playing at a higher energy with animals, and we take a trip outside (for walkable babies). When we are back inside, it's more wind down time before dinner. Another walk, and it's bed time. I have an indoor cat to keep your baby company when inside I have two outside lovable and energetic dogs and a huge yard Dogs are always on leashes and always within my line of sight Wind down time before eating to prevent bloat Experienced with a variety of warning signs for emergency care Able to give medicine, shots, special prepared foods, and any other needs for babies who need special help
“This was Kings second time seeing Mika but first time at her place. he went right to her and never looked back at me. Made my heart smile because I knew he was in good hands. She sent pics of him throughout the day. He had a ball and made a new pup friend. Thanks again Mika. We can’t wait to see you again soon!”
About: Your pet's new favorite human (after you, of course I bring veterinary experience and a foster's heart to every walk, drop-in, and boarding stay. I'm comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from high-energy pups to shy or sensitive pets who need a little extra patience. Whether we're out for a fun, structured walk or relaxing at home, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress-free. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, so your pet feels understood and cared for every step of the way. I'm also confident with basic handling, medication routines, and keeping a clean, calm environment. Safety is always my priority-secure leashes, awareness of surroundings, and thoughtful care. You'll get plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication, so you always know how your pet is doing. With me, your pet gets more than just care-they get attention, patience, and lots of love. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I have worked in a full service veterinary hospital, and in my home, someone is always present—so pets get constant supervision, playtime, and companionship. I keep routines consistent and tailor care to each pet. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be part of our daily life. Safety and trust are my top priorities, especially when pets are staying in my home. I create a calm, structured environment where they can settle in comfortably and feel secure. My home features a fully fenced acre where dogs can safely run, play, sunbathe, or relax in the shade. I’m experienced managing multiple dogs and cats, so I carefully supervise all interactions and match energy levels to keep everyone safe and stress-free. I stick closely to your pet’s routine—including feeding schedules, medications, and preferences—so their stay feels familiar and consistent. With hands-on veterinary experience, I’m also able to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond quickly if needed. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a quieter space, I adjust to their needs and let them settle in at their own pace. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in a safe, attentive, and loving environment.
About: I have always had a soft spot in my heart for dogs. I have carried this love into adulthood and I enjoy having them in my life. When your four-legged family member is with us they will be treated as one of the family. They will be doted upon and they will be constantly engaged, touched, and talked to. We go for walks in our 1-acre fenced backyard, which facilitates safe rewarding exploration and discovery. We allow the visitors to play and interact with our loving and friendly standard poodles who are great role models to each other and to visiting pooches. Even though your baby will be on their doggie Vaca, We will still use every opportunity to encourage learning, good manners, and good behavior by giving treats and positive reinforcement throughout the day. Stability, engagement, routine, and structure makes a happy dog and we aim to make sure that every four-legged friend who lodges with us, is happy and never wants to leave. Our resident babies eat twice per day and are allowed out for potty breaks three times per day. If it is a rainy day we do indoor activities in our 35x40 temperature controlled dog suite and we even watch a little "Dog TV" We have a great time, rain or shine! Sleeping arrangements will depend on what your baby is comfortable with but we do not allow our pets on the furniture or in our beds (at least when daddy is around). We have kennels but we allow the dogs to sleep anywhere they want to in the dog suite. I am a retired nurse and I am always home so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for dogs in my day. We have a huge fenced in backyard where all the dogs enjoy their time outdoors. We also have plenty of equipment in the yard for their enjoyment.
“Linda is a sweetheart and just loves animals. Our girl enjoyed her time in Linda's care, and we are looking forward to the next time our girl will enjoy some time with her!”
“Felicia and Bradley took amazing care of Ollie. From the start, they were communicative, professional, and clearly love what they do. They sent great photos and updates along the way, which gave me real peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Ollie came home relaxed, happy, and clearly had a great experience. It’s obvious they provide a safe, loving environment and treat the dogs like their own. I would absolutely trust them with Ollie again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, caring sitters.”
“Lyra had a great time with Delmina! She sent lots of photos and videos, and Lyra was happy when we picked her up! We had a great experience and will definitely be regulars!”

About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals over the years, including dogs and cats.

I am currently a college kid home for the summer. With that being said I have a completely open schedule right now until I head back in the fall! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they stay on their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed.

As a lifelong dog owner, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll treat your pets with the same care and respect I give my own.

About: Hey fur parents, I just wanted to come on here and provide a 5 star service to you and your fur baby! Here’s a little bit about me… I’ve pet sat, walked pets, administered medication to many pets that require it on a day to day basis (via orally and injection), and many drop-in visits for a little over 5 years now to highly anxious, aggressive, and elderly animals. I’ve also worked it the veterinary field assisting doctors to provide hands on care to your fur baby for a little over a year now. I’m also in with the AKC. I compete with dogs in conformation, agility, dock diving, scent work, and barn hunt etc. and have been doing that for about a year with all types of breeds and sizes. I have always had a special connection with dogs and all animals for that matter and enjoy every second I can get with any of them. I look forward to doing some pet sitting or walking for you and your fur baby! I work part-time at the veterinary clinic (2 times a week for 5 hours a day) which gives me plenty of time during the week to play with your precious fur baby! I’m also a college student who has recently switched to online classes giving me even more time with your pet! I have a fenced in yard for endless potty breaks and plenty of play area! I have two loving Labrador retriever’s dogs to bring your pet a buddy to play endless tug of war with or if your pet isn’t on the energetic side just a good ole snuggle buddy! 😁
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13 from friends and family, I’ve always loved dogs, but my parents weren’t really a fan of them, now that I move in to my own house, that has plenty of space for dogs to run and play I’d love to take care of your pets as if they were my own I’m a stay at home mom of 2 girls and 1 baby boy, I’m all day at home almost every single day of the week I have a fenced yard, my backyard it’s kind of unusual, it’s like a double fenced yard, one for my house and behind that is another fenced yard for my husbands horses, so if you’d like your dog to have some kind of farm experience they can be on both yards, but if you preferred for your dog to stay away from the horses that can be too
About: I have had all kinds of dogs (even pits) and cats growing up. I have delt with many puppies and senior dogs;) I have also bottle fed dogs and cats. I have goats and chickens I don’t work I’m a stay at home mom with nothing to do. So I’m looking for things to do and I love animals so it’s a perfect match;) I have 5 acres to run and play on but I also have a fenced in area. I have tons of space for them to be happy. I have tons of space to run and play inside.
About: I have always been very good with animals ever since I was little. I like animals more than humans so I promise to take care of your pet like it is my own. I have volunteered at the Human Society and I am going to college to work with animals so I would love to care for your pet to gain more experience. I am currently home from college so I am free all day, Monday through Friday. Then starting in August I will be home Friday through Sunday. I have an unfenced yard but plenty of yard for them to run around and I have a in ground runner that they can be put on for some freedom. I also have two fur babies to keep your fur baby company but they can always be kept separate if needed.
About: I have my own dachshund that I take care of on a daily basis but also have 3 other family dogs tha range from a dachshund to a german shepherd. I’ve always helped taken care of the family dogs growing up. I work 3 times a week and have school but my schedule is very flexible and I can adjust it around based on what I have going on. Any pet in my home that’s not mine would be treated like my own pets. They would be taken care of all the time. The same would apply in someone else’s home. I would follow a schedule feeding and letting the pets out just like I do with my own.
About: My name is Hana Freeman, I am a professional singer/dancer/actress/model, and I can't wait to show your dog(s) all the love and fun!!! I have grown up with cats( rescues and purebreds), dogs ( golden retrievers), and horses my entire life and I am an animal lover through and through. In that time I have helped raise 3 puppies (training each basic skills i.e. sit, stay, no, down,and heel) and taken care of two adult dogs through bouts of cancer and through their passing. I have experience administering antibiotics in pill form and antibiotics in dropper form. I am no stranger to ALL of the responsibilities of pet care. I am very physically fit and capable to hand large and small dogs. I am available in my weeks to accommodate your schedule,and the upcoming seasons do not intimidate me from making sure your dog is cared for and happy. I love to run and play and learn the personalities of all dogs and like to think I bring out the best in the dogs that I have cared for. -Grown up as a care giver to my own dogs so far I have had 5 since I was a child. -Can administer antibiotics in pill and dropper form -Physically fit to walk, run, and play -Not afraid to clean up waste or any other dog messes - Have had dog walking and sitting experience for friends and family - I LOVE DOGS!!!! - I have a flexible schedule Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since I was a very little girl. I have grown up with golden retrievers my whole life and my earliest memory of my first dog, Koa, was taking naps on his belly when I was about two.It was my favorite place to nestle into, and honestly not much has changed! In my home our animals have always been treated and loved like members of our family. My mother is maybe the ultimate care giver and would always take in stray dogs that we would care for until their owners were either able to retrieve them or help find strays new homes. There is something so special to me about the bond between animals and humans and to me life is not as valuable with out it. My experience administering medication Yes. If it is something I have not done before a brief instruction ahead of time is required but once you show me one time I am comfortable administering any kind of medication. Im currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry loved ones! My schedule is also flexible so if anything changes I am able to be more accommodating . My care for an owner's pet or respect for their home is curated based off of each client. Of course my foundation is caring for your home and animal as if they were my own and how I would like my things and animal cared for.

He came home happy with the zoomies, so I think it's safe to say he had a great time! 10/10 do recommend Jill. :)”
About: I don't have any professional experience, but I've grown up in a family that has housed a lot of dogs and cats since I was born. We've had 4 dogs and 7 cats from my early childhood until today, so while I did obviously have the rest of my family to assist with them, I've still had firsthand experience with a lot of different behaviors and habits of these pets and how certain traits or preferences vary between them. I finished college at UGA recently, so I'm currently at home full-time. Pet care would be pretty easy to fit into my weekly schedule. I always try to make sure I feed my cat her treats once a day around the same time, so consistent feeding and cleaning wouldn't be that much harder with additional pets. I am gone some evenings on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, but other than that my time is fully open to help your pets stay relaxed, happy, and healthy. My backyard has a fence, but it's currently old and unrepaired, so the gates cannot close properly, so any pets prone to running will be staying inside or on a leash. My house is very small, but my front and backyard are very spacious, ideal for pets that are uncomfortable in small spaces. My cat can be skittish around other animals, so I will need to keep her in a separate space from them, but my family's done that with many of our cats, so it will not be a problem for the client or their pets. My roommate stays inside most of the time, so but he's also very friendly and should not pose any issues for the pets.
