“This was our 2nd time in 2 weeks using Jennifer to watch our 2 small dogs. Im not sure our dogs were ready to leave when we picked them up!! It's obvious that Jennifer & her husband love dogs, plus they have a fenced yard. We won't take our dogs anywhere else!!”
“I cannot recommend Jessica enough! This is our 43rd experience with her and she was incredibly accommodating, hospitable, and caring with my toy poodle from start to finish. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my baby was in such loving hands. You can truly tell she has a genuine love for animals and treats them like family. She went above and beyond to make sure my poodle was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable, she is absolutely the best choice for a sitter!”
“The way my dog disowned me when dropping him off this time to Lydia’s. It’s his 2nd boarding experience with her and he ran in her home so quick without looking back lol Lydia is amazing as always. Excellent timely communication with photos of your pup 😍, sweet fur baby companions for your fur baby to frolic with and she’s super understanding with last minute changes, for example my flight was delayed (twice now smh 🙈) and she’s made the process so much less anxiety inducing by offering grace in those moments. 💯 repeat customer if she continues to have my running late ass and my obese baby boy”
“Jessica is THE person you want watching your fur babies! She took outstanding care of my 3 month old puppy! She sent photos almost daily for an update on him! Her communication was excellent! I wouldn’t want to trust anyone else with Ody after seeing how much love she showed him! He was very spoiled with Jessica! Thank you very much!”
“We appreciate Jill and Aaron so much! They were so cooperative with us when our scheduling was all out of whack. Such kind and friendly people. We received constant videos of our pup and they let us know how he was everyday! This was our first time boarding with them but it will definitely not be our last! Thank you guys so much”
“Kandace is absolutely amazing. She took such good care.of Molly who seemed to be so happy in her care She kept us updated and even sent some super cute photos. We will use her again.”
“She was amazing! She handled my doggo so well and took such good care of him! We got constant updates and a multitude of pictures and videos. She is very well rehearsed in handling dogs!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Maria! She took incredible care of my puppy while I was on vacation, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. She sent regular updates, adorable photos, and kept me in the loop without me even having to ask. It was clear my pup was happy, well-loved, and in great hands. Coming home to a relaxed and content dog said it all. Maria was reliable, professional, and truly went above and beyond. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, she’s the one!”
“This is my second time using her with my two dog! She sends me great photos of my dogs every to keep me updated and my dogs always have good times at her place. Strongly recommended!”
“Our fur babies had a wonderful experience with Heather. Her level of professionalism is phenomenal (pictures sent daily, conscientious communication) We give her 4 paws up! ???”
“James took great care of Jaxx by providing pictures and updates while I was away. He kept me updated with feeding times and communicated quickly with any concerns. I will absolutely book with James in the future.”
“They did an exception for our 50lbs dog and they exceeded our expectations. Very understanding and great communication. They were loving and caring towards our dog and kept us posted.”
“I was so happy that Skilar sent me pictures and updates during my pups stay with her! I had cold feet at first because this was Merediths (my pup) first stay with someone at their home. I highly recommend Skilar, as she made my doggy as at home as she made me feel confident leaving her!”
“Jennifer was amazing! Our golden doodle stayed with her over Christmas and sent pictures everyday and updated us on our boy (even on christmas)! When we picked him up, he was happy as can be, would definitely bring him back!”
“Highly recommend Jonathan to anyone looking at entrusting their dogs with a caring, responsible care giver and loving environment. Milo was nothing but happy whenever I picked him up. He had a blast!”
About: Caring for pets has been part of my life since childhood. Over the years, neighbors and friends have trusted me with their dogs for walks, feeding, bathing, and playtime.

My routine is structured and dependable, so I can provide regular walks, playtime, and care without interruptions. I’m also available for overnight boarding on weekends and flexible check-ins during the week. responsibility and reliability are at the core of everything I do. I have a secure fenced yard and one small friendly dog who love company, which creates a safe and social environment for visiting pets. I follow any special instruction without any problem.
“What an amazing place to leave our fur baby. Jen and her kids were amazing to our dog. Jen sent me pics of our dog throughout his stay. Great communication too! Will definitely use again.”
“We used Heidi for this first time over the 4th of July and it went amazing! she took care of him like he was her own. Kept him on his schedule and sent constant updates on how he was doing. It allowed us to relax on our family trip knowing our fur family member was being well taken care of. We would absolutely use her again! Thank you Heidi!!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats of every kind since I was 10 years old. I have 3 cats of my own currently living with me who are all in perfect health, and my senior cat (from my college years) is living the retired life at my parent’s lake house, so he’s still doing great too! I also had a cat when I was younger who was diagnosed with diabetes toward the end of her life, so I learned how to administer insulin shots on cats. I am comfortable giving my cats any type of medicine, even the one that fights me the most on any kind of medicine, haha!
“Jennifer was fantastic. She saved me from a last minute work trip and was able to help me out without any issues at all. Her communication is fabulous and I would definitely recommend her to everyone!!!”
“Enjoyed getting pictures and updates every day while we were out of town. June took lots of notes during our meet and greet and took great care in knowing our 3 kitties all have much different personalities. I was at ease our entire trip knowing June was dropping in to feed them and give them a little play time each day. We will definitely be using them for our future trips!”
“Yanya did a great job caring for and playing with Maggie Mae. She was very patient and caring. When she noticed that Maggie had an injury she called me immediately and waited for instructions.”
“Ayla-Lynette did an amazing job with my two kitties, one of whom required daily injections and was not easy! Was so grateful that they were in her care, she was wonderful at keeping me updated and sending photos in the lake. I highly recommend her to anyone reading this, she will take wonderful care of your animals. Thank you again Ayla-Lynette!”

About: I started dog-sitting while I was in high school. I am currently a medical student who would love to help take care of your animal (s). Being a medical student has strengthened my sense of responsibility, attention to detail, and compassion. I will carefully schedule my study blocks so I can provide dependable, attentive care. Time with pets is something I genuinely look forward to each week. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with plenty of safe outdoor space nearby for walks and fresh air. Inside, pets have a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at home.

“Toby is AWEmazing with my Rottweiler Mello he always works with my schedule and is great with working with me last minute. He also sticks to his commitment when I have something planned weeks Ahead! I will def continue using him for my boarding and drop ins !!!”
About: I absolutely adore cats 🐈 . I have four of my own, all adopted from shelters or through Facebook adoptions 🎁 . I understand their needs and desires. 💞 I never pry for their attention, as I know it can be stressful for them when a new face enters their space. 🧐 I promise to provide your cats with the best care and do my best to understand them. 🤗 🥰
About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime, just have to work around my husbands schedule! But that shouldn’t be an issue. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily
“Hailee was the best! She was very prompt in getting back with me when I requested her to come and set with my two goldendoodles. She drooped in three times a day with our girls for several days and she was always on time. She played, fed, watered and loved them. She also was so good about sending pictures and letting me know how my girls were doing. Everything was very clean when I came back home. I highly recommend her and I will be using her again.”

Will definitely be going back in the future!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for 17 years, starting at the age of 10, and my love for animals has only grown over time. I have experience with daily care routines, exercise, companionship, and basic pet needs. I understand pets are family. My goal is to provide peace of mind to pet owners while giving their pets the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m patient, responsible, and committed to keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work remotely, which allows me to be home and fully present with pets throughout the day. This means frequent potty breaks, playtime, supervision, and plenty of attention, with pets able to move freely and feel comfortable all day long. I have a fenced in yard and 3 happy dogs who think they are human. Your pets are more than welcome to play with mine. However I can keep them separated if requested. If crates are necessary for your pets I can incorporate that as well. Whatever suite you and your pets needs!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and temperaments and provide a safe, loving environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I follow each pet’s routine closely and send regular updates to owners. I am a stay at home mom to one baby, so my schedule is very flexible! Morning and evening care times are preferred.

“I was able to meet Roy before my fur baby's extended stay and do a meet and greet. Roy is very professional and friendly. Even though Cavi is not crate trained and a bit much, Roy was able to put my fears at ease knowing that my fur baby would be taking care of. Definitely recommend Roy.”
“Patrick and Chris are excellent dog sitters and all around great people. I work early mornings in the hospital before any other daycares open and was worried I would have no place to bring my 4 month old puppy. They willingly took my pup in at 0515 am. She was so excited to see them the next morning. We will absolutely use them again!”

About: I have taken care of my own pets (cats & dogs) as well as for neighbors, friends, and family most of my life and I will always treat them like my own. My own black lab fur baby is a senior girl. I've had her since she was a pup, so I have experience with all stages of life with dogs.

I am a responsible pet parent, and I will always treat your fur babies like they are my own. I treat them how I would want mine to be treated if I were using these services.

About: My family has had dogs of all kinds growing up. I used to pet sit before when it worked with my schedule and it is my favorite job. This will be a fantastic job to have while I start my vet schooling to continue my passion, caring and loving for any and all dogs/animals. I’m very flexible and willing to work with your schedule. Shoot me a message and we can talk/get to know each other. Meet and greet are always welcome. I want you and your pet both to be comfortable. I have a completely open schedule and can make most anything work. I also have my own transportation and can do multiple days if needed. I am more than happy to dog sit at your house where your dog feels comfortable. I always want the dog to know they are in a safe environment and keep them happy while mom and/or dad are gone. Dogs always a first priority. Get up in the morning and go potty, then do breakfast (if that’s the routine), go for a walk or play in the yard, and then snuggles if they are up for it. Then follow the rest of their daily routine and I don’t mind sleeping with the animals if that’s what they do. I’m not much on putting dogs in the crate if I am home.
About: I've cared for dogs big and small since I was eleven. I've watched pets, dogs and cats, for my neighbors and family who needed a caregiver while they're out. I've given the animals baths, walked them around their neighborhood, kept them fed and cared for, and I've stayed the night at my relatives for their dogs. They're typically calm and happy around me, despite separation anxiety. I love animals more than most people! I have full open availability with no other pressing school or work obligations. Sitting and dog walking fits perfectly into my routine as a very active person who needs a lot of walking and stimulation myself. It depends on what the client has provided for me at their home and what they have instructed me to do. I'll take them outside or keep them in per the owners' requests.
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver, I know that your pets aren't just animals—they are family. I bring years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, ranging from energetic daily walks to dedicated, full-week overnight house sitting. As a cat owner myself, I am deeply attuned to pet behavior, routines, and comfort levels. My top priority is ensuring your peace of mind while you are away. You can count on consistent, transparent communication, including detailed updates and plenty of photos or videos of your pets happy and thriving. I treat every animal in my care with the utmost respect, attentiveness, and love, keeping their schedules on track and their tails wagging! I am very flexible with my schedule and do this as my full time job! I have plenty of time to take care of your furry friends! I am willing to help with care for your pets in anyway I can, I feel comfortable administering medication as long as it is explained and shown to me ahead of time! Your pets are always safe with me!
“Kayla is wonderful with our Dottie girl! Dottie is so excited to see her. She is a new pup and Kayla is so patient, kind and playful with her! Kayla is incredibly communicative, she is always timely and gives us such peace of mind knowing our Dottie is in great hands! We feel so fortunate to get to work with Kayla!”
About: My wife and I did pet sitting in Virginia for a little over 3 years before moving to Tennessee. Our pet parents loved us and recommended us highly. We have never met a dog or cat that didn't like us and some even called my wife the dog whisperer because she has a very calming demeanor. We have taken care of dogs from toy poodles to boxers (3 boxers at one time for the weekend). We love to play and snuggle and we will treat them like they are our own. I work nights but my wife is a stay at home grandmother and between us we have plenty of time to give your dog(s) or cat(s) the special time they need and we would love the chance to get to know yours. I am home full time so I have plenty of time to love on your pet(s) except when I have to go to other clients homes to love on theirs. I have a fenced in yard and take them out regularly and I go out with them to make sure they are safe and secure.
About: What truly sets me apart is not just my love for dogs, but the hands-on experience I have caring for a wide range of breeds and personalities. I currently have three dogs of my own a sweet 8-year-old Chihuahua-Yorkie mix who is our spoiled little baby, a very energetic Shih Tzu who keeps me on my toes, and a gentle giant of a German Shepherd who’s just a big cuddly lovebug. Because of them, I have real-life experience managing everything from small, senior pups to large, high-energy breeds. I’m especially patient with hyper dogs I know how to keep them active, happy, and well-behaved. Whether it’s caring for older dogs who need extra love or keeping up with pups who never seem to run out of energy, I genuinely enjoy every moment of it. I treat every dog like family and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and entertained while you're away. You can trust that your furry friend will be in caring and capable hands! I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule, which means I get to choose the shifts that work best for me. This allows me to easily plan around pet sitting needs. As long as I’m given a little notice, I can adjust my work hours to fit your schedule whether that’s for regular check-ins, overnight care, or last-minute plans. You can feel confident that your pet will get the attention and care they deserve without any conflicts. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it by using leashes and taking pets on regular walks around my neighborhood or to nearby parks. I enjoy being active and love spending time outdoors with the dogs, giving them plenty of exercise and enrichment. My own dogs are very friendly and would love the extra company, which helps create a warm and welcoming environment for any visiting pets. I’m dedicated to making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for whether they’re staying in my home or I'm visiting them in theirs.

I have a very flexible availability, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day—whether that means morning walks, mid-day drop-ins, evening visits, or extended stays. I’m able to adjust my day to meet each pet’s needs, making sure they get the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I plan my routine so that I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, and I never rush through visits. I prioritize communication with pet parents and keep a steady rhythm of updates and photos. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it never feels like a chore—it’s a regular, happy part of my life. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and consistent environment that helps every pet feel secure and relaxed.

I always take the time to learn your pet’s likes, dislikes, and comfort needs so they feel right at home.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every dog like family. I have three sweet, well-loved pups of my own—a playful 1-year-old shepherd husky, a gentle 5-year-old black lab— & the sweetest 1 year old Corgi, so I understand different energy levels, personalities, and care needs. I’ve raised 2 of them since they were puppies, which gave me hands-on experience with puppy training, routines, and positive reinforcement, as well as providing calm, patient care for more mature dogs. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first, whether that means structured playtime, relaxing cuddle time, or keeping routines consistent to reduce stress. I’m attentive, dependable, and genuinely love building trust with both pets and their owners so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I am currently a full time stay home dog mama. My entire days revolve around my fur babies since my schedule is completely open. I’ve loved dogs my whole life and I’ve recently moved to the area from Colorado and went from an apartment to a house with a big yard so most of my days are spent outside with the fur babies. I do have a very large fully fenced in backyard and my dogs pretty much come in & out as they please. They have a large water bowl outside that is always filled and I spend time working with them and giving treats throughout the day as well.
About: I have been living with Pets since I was younger. I have always been good at taking care of animals. The love I have for pets is unspeakable I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals.

About: With over two years of experience house sitting for friends and family—often for extended periods—I’ve earned a strong reputation for being dependable, respectful, and truly dedicated to the pets I care for. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, from energetic puppies to gentle senior pets, and I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs, routines, and personalities. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to provide both companionship and specialized care, especially for older pets who need a little extra patience and attention. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply offering comfort and snuggles, I treat every animal like they’re my own. My goal is always to keep pets happy, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I am currently working part-time! But my schedule is completely up to me and flexible. The good thing about the job I work at is I get to create my own schedule! As long as I am kept in the loop with the people I provide services for dog sitting, walking, and care will always be my top priority! I treat every home and pet I care for with the same respect I’d want for my own. I always follow routines closely—whether it’s feeding, walking, or giving medication—and make sure pets stay safe by double-checking doors, gates, and anything they might get into. I’m clean, organized, and careful to leave the home just as I found it. Most importantly, I take time to understand each pet’s needs and personality so they feel comfortable, calm, and cared for while their owner is away. Trust and safety are always my top priorities!
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since the age of 13. My aunt had 3 dogs so whenever I could I would watch them and stay there for a week at a time when she was out of town I fed them walked them even had to bathe them when they got into dirt. From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do ! I’m currently working full time and I am having a Baby the end of November. I am extremely flexible and able to do any and all jobs ! So unfortunately have a German Shepard who isn’t around dogs all the time so I would have to work in my clients home. I am a very clean and neat person I never leave a mess. If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.

“I cannot recommend Jessica enough! This is our 43rd experience with her and she was incredibly accommodating, hospitable, and caring with my toy poodle from start to finish. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my baby was in such loving hands. You can truly tell she has a genuine love for animals and treats them like family. She went above and beyond to make sure my poodle was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable, she is absolutely the best choice for a sitter!”

About: Caring for pets has been part of my life since childhood. Over the years, neighbors and friends have trusted me with their dogs for walks, feeding, bathing, and playtime. I’m experienced with both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need extra patience and care I’m currently serving on active duty, but my schedule allows me consistent time in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends to dedicate to pets. My routine is structured and dependable, so I can provide regular walks, playtime, and care without interruptions. I’m also available for overnight boarding on weekends and flexible check-ins during the week. responsibility and reliability are at the core of everything I do. I have a secure fenced yard and one small friendly dog who love company, which creates a safe and social environment for visiting pets. I follow any special instruction without any problem.
“What an amazing place to leave our fur baby. Jen and her kids were amazing to our dog. Jen sent me pics of our dog throughout his stay. Great communication too! Will definitely use again.”
“We used Heidi for this first time over the 4th of July and it went amazing! she took care of him like he was her own. Kept him on his schedule and sent constant updates on how he was doing. It allowed us to relax on our family trip knowing our fur family member was being well taken care of. We would absolutely use her again! Thank you Heidi!!”
“We’ve worked with Miranda now several times—our dog loves the time and effort she puts into each stay to make our boy special! Already making plans to have her watch him again in the near future!”
About: Hi, I’m Daphne! As a military wife, I understand that life can bring some unexpected, last minute schedule changes. So if there’s a weekend where you have to be away, I’d be more than happy to help watch over your fur baby! As a fitness instructor who values keeping an active lifestyle, I dedicate my weekends to the dogs by taking them out on neighborhood walks, trails, or play dates to the dog parks — so if you need weekend care, look no further! Both of my dogs, Presley and Winston, play well with other dogs but can still be old souls who lay around and sleep all day too. While my husband is deployed until 2027, I want to continue helping out dogs in our community. A bit about our fam: We have a passion for animal rescue and welfare. We’ve fostered, volunteered, and have been active in our animal shelter. I have background handling both small and big dogs, dogs with high energy, and defeated dogs who have had overall rough lives. If we see any dog in need, no matter if it’s at 11pm, in the rain, or running through the roads, we will without hesitation, stop to help give that dog whatever it is they may need. We have come across many strays and have helped reunite them with their families or have found them forever homes with the help of our local animal shelters. Our dream life is working alongside a local animal rescue back home after military life and continuing to rescue & rehabilitate more dogs in need! If you need those “after hours” drop off/pick up times — don’t hesitate to ask! I am home on weekends all day so I am flexible with your schedule. My camera roll is filled with pics of my own dogs so you can expect constant photos, videos, and updates on your baby throughout their time here! What you can expect: I usually keep dogs in their individual crate overnight as well as separating them at feeding times. This is for their safety as I wouldn’t want anything harmful happening to them overnight when I am not watching! They may behave well in your home but in new environments, I want to take extra precautions. The dogs are not inside for more than 2 hours as I let them outside for potty breaks and outdoor playtime often, with weather conditions kept in mind.
