“Looove lilly! She came visit us to get to know the cats before we left. This was my first time using rover and also our first time leaving our cats after moving to a new place so I was pretty anxious.

She kept me updated and love all the pictures she sent me. TY LILLY 🤍”
“I was away for the weekend and needed someone to stop by to check in on my cat, Charlie. Aaron responded to my request quickly, and he was very professional when we had our first meet and greet before booking. While watching Charlie, he had amazing communication over the weekend and always sent photos and updates with every check-in. Charlie can be pretty nervous around new people, but Aaron was super patient with him and let him warm up at his own pace. He kept the litter box clean and even washed Charlie's food dishes, which I really appreciated. Aaron was very reliable and easy to work with, and I felt like I could relax on my weekend trip knowing Charlie was in good hands. I would definitely book with Aaron again!”
“Ella was amazing!!! She kept me updated on my little baby’s and listened to all my worry’s about leaving them alone for a few days. She was so sweet and both my cats loved her. I will be recommending her to everyone, and booking with her again 🫶🫶”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is the kindness and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I truly understand that every dog is unique, whether they’re a bouncy puppy learning the ropes, a senior dog needing gentle care, or a shy pet who just needs a little extra love to feel safe. I approach every pet with compassion, making sure they feel at ease and cherished in my care. From creating a nurturing routine to sending heartfelt updates to owners, I treat every furry friend like they’re part of my own family. Their happiness and comfort are always my top priorities. Lo que me distingue como cuidadora de mascotas es la amabilidad y la paciencia que le brindo a cada mascota que cuido. Entiendo verdaderamente que cada perro es único, ya sea un cachorro saltarín que está aprendiendo a comportarse, un perro mayor que necesita cuidados suaves o una mascota tímida que solo necesita un poco más de amor para sentirse segura. Trato a cada mascota con compasión, asegurándome de que se sienta a gusto y querida bajo mi cuidado. Desde crear una rutina de cuidado hasta enviar actualizaciones sinceras a los dueños, trato a cada amigo peludo como si fuera parte de mi propia familia. Su felicidad y comodidad son siempre mis principales prioridades. 🐶🐱❤️ Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I make sure to set aside dedicated time to care for pets, whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening cuddles. Each day starts with planning to ensure pets have everything they need, from meals and playtime to exercise and companionship. I adapt my schedule to fit the specific needs of each pet, whether that means flexible times for potty breaks, feeding, or quiet time for older dogs. On a weekly basis, I create a routine that maintains a pet’s consistency and comfort while making sure to have time for new activities and learning opportunities for puppies or energetic dogs. Pet care isn’t just a job—it’s a fulfilling part of my day that brings me joy and allows me to build strong bonds with each animal I look after. El cuidado de mascotas es una parte integral de mi rutina diaria y semanal. Me aseguro de reservar un tiempo específico para cuidar de las mascotas, ya sea con paseos matutinos, sesiones de juego al mediodía o abrazos por la noche. Cada día comienza con una planificación para asegurarme de que las mascotas tengan todo lo que necesitan, desde comidas y tiempo de juego hasta ejercicio y compañía. Adapto mi horario para satisfacer las necesidades específicas de cada mascota, ya sea con horarios flexibles para ir al baño, alimentarlas o momentos de tranquilidad para los perros mayores. Cada semana, creo una rutina que mantiene la consistencia y la comodidad de la mascota, al mismo tiempo que me aseguro de tener tiempo para nuevas actividades y oportunidades de aprendizaje para los cachorros o los perros enérgicos. El cuidado de mascotas no es solo un trabajo, es una parte gratificante de mi día que me brinda alegría y me permite construir vínculos fuertes con cada animal que cuido. When caring for pets at a client’s home, I make their safety and comfort my top priorities. I start by getting familiar with their daily routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any special needs or preferences. I ensure the home is secure by checking for potential hazards and making sure doors and gates are properly closed. During walks or play sessions, I stay attentive to keep them safe from traffic, other animals, or any unexpected situations. I provide interactive play, walks, and plenty of affection to keep pets engaged and happy. If any special care is needed, like administering medication or following a specific diet, I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions exactly. Building trust with both the pet and their owner is important, so I keep communication open with regular updates and photos. My goal is to create a comforting environment where pets feel at ease and loved, allowing their owners to feel confident and relaxed while they’re away. Cuando cuido mascotas en la casa de un cliente, hago de su seguridad y comodidad mis principales prioridades. Empiezo por familiarizarme con su rutina diaria, incluidos los horarios de alimentación, las pausas para ir al baño y cualquier necesidad o preferencia especial. Me aseguro de que la casa sea segura comprobando si hay peligros potenciales y asegurándome de que las puertas y portones estén bien cerrados. Durante los paseos o las sesiones de juego, me mantengo atenta para mantenerlos a salvo del tráfico, otros animales o cualquier situación inesperada. Ofrezco juegos interactivos, paseos y mucho cariño para mantener a las mascotas ocupadas y felices. Si se necesita algún cuidado especial, como administrar medicamentos o seguir una dieta específica, me aseguro de seguir exactamente las instrucciones del dueño. Generar confianza tanto con la mascota como con su dueño es importante, por lo que mantengo la comunicación abierta con actualizaciones y fotos periódicas. Mi objetivo es crear un entorno reconfortante donde las mascotas se sientan a gusto y amadas, lo que permite que sus dueños se sientan seguros y relajados mientras están fuera.🐾
“Maria, provided excellent care to my dog in daycare. She sent photos through out the day and my dog looked very happy and comfortable. She was flexible with me and kind as well. I would ask Maria to watch my dog again.”
“Jessica was amazing!! We needed a last minute sitter for our brand new, very needy 9 week old puppy, and she was more than up to the task. We were very comforted by her friendliness and the frequent updates. Will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: My grandparents never allowed us to have any pets in our home. As soon as I turned 18, I got my first puppy. Since then, it's been quite an adventure for my spouse and I. With more than 12 years of dog fostering, transport, and walking, I've cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments and he's been there along for the ride. Our rescues have taught us the importance of individualized care. I'm committed to providing a loving, fun, yet safe environment for your fur family member(s). We can't wait to meet your fur best friend! I’m currently a stay-at-home-mom taking online college courses. We are home (almost) all day to care for, play with and let out your loved pups! I am now offering boarding services in my home on Fort Campbell. Our rescues have since crossed rainbow bridge and we now have a pup that loves to play with others. Slow, monitored introductions are always done. I have three children, 10, 7.5 and almost 2, who've also gained a love for any and all animals, while also knowing to respect and give space when it is needed.
“This was my first time using Rover. I was a bit nervous but Kendra was great. She had me introduce my dog, Leo, to her dogs through the fence before bringing Leo inside the fence. The dogs interacted great. Kendra also sent me a picture of Leo letting me know things were going well. It's great to be able to get away and not have to worry about you pet. Thanks Kendra!”
“The love Kelcey has for pets is amazing! I felt comfortable leaving Kali with her while I worked and ran errands. Kali was sooo tired when he returned home (that means he had a BLAST!). Thanks again Kelcey! Kali will be back! :)”
“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.”
“AMAZING! Thank you so much for taking care of our small pup! Our ball of energy came home tired which tells us he had lots of fun playing at pup daycare! Also, quick with responding which is a great plus and nice home with a large fenced yard for all the pups to play in! Will definitely book again!”
About: My heart is open to all creatures, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and cherished in my care. Whether it’s through playtime, cuddles, or attentive care, I treat each pet with the same affection and dedication I would give to my own! I currently have ample time to efficiently care for your baby (or babies). Mornings begin with feeding and some outdoor play. Midday involves engaging in daily activities while keeping the pets entertained nearby. Afternoons are all about quality time and interactive play. Finally, evenings include dinner and a final play session, allowing everyone to wind down for a good night's rest—then we repeat! Caring for pets in my home and my clients’ homes involves a tailored approach based on their specific needs and the services I offer. I create a secure and comfortable space with plenty of toys, cozy spots, and outdoor access. In Clients’ Homes, I maintain the pet’s usual routine to minimize stress, following their feeding and play schedules. I ensure the home is safe by securing potential hazards and providing a comfortable space for the pet. I provide regular updates to the pet owner, sharing how their pet is doing.
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 day/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 time to my own dogs by taking them out on neighborhood walks, trails, & play dates — so if you need care full of fun for your pup, 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. 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‘m currently home full-time 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 with me! I separate dogs at feeding times and keep them in their individual crate overnight. Crating 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. My goal for drop-ins is to make each visit feel familiar and stress-free by sticking to their routine as much as possible and caring for them just like you would! *I kindly ask that you provide your pup’s kennel for boarding as they must be crate trained. I do not accept dogs with history of excessive barking and/or chewing/destruction/escaping when crated*
About: As a dog mom myself, I know how hard it is to trust someone new with your beloved furry family member. When your dogs are in my home, they are a part of our family. I can’t remember a time in my life where I didn’t have a dog, and now that I’m an adult with my own, I’m dedicated to providing the best care for my daycare and boarding clients. Because my husband and I both work from home, someone is always available to supervise your babies. A typical day at our home looks like this: 630a - Wake Up 730a - Short Morning Walk 8a to 930a - Independent play & relax 930a - Breakfast 10a to 12p - Independent play, potty breaks as needed 12p - Lunch 1p to 4p - Independent play, potty breaks as needed 4p to 530p - Outdoor play 530p - Dinner 7p - Evening Walk 8p - Settle Down With a flexible work schedule, I have the ability to adjust my schedule to the dogs in my care. Our home is 1200 sq ft with over a quarter acre of 6ft privacy fenced backyard space. Our fence is thoroughly checked weekly for any holes, loose boards, and other defects that could lead to escapees. All doors, except for our dedicated office space, are closed during the day, but dogs have access to our shared family spaces. While we do not have a doggy door for backyard access, we do potty breaks approx every two hours or as needed. In our home, it is myself, my husband, and our dog Jessie, who is friendly to all. Although she is friendly, we do pick up all toys, chews, and food when other dogs are in our home. That being said, dogs will also be fed separate regardless of personality simply because dogs act different in homes that are not theirs. We find that this keeps both our dog and yours safe in our home.
About: Hey pups and parents! I have hands-on experience working with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I’ve trained my own dogs in scent work and obedience, giving me a strong understanding of behavior, communication, and structured training. I’ve also spent time working in dog rescue, which has taught me patience, adaptability, and how to support dogs with a wide range of backgrounds and needs. No matter how busy my schedule gets, I always make time to care for your pets. I ensure they’re fed, comfortable, and given the love and attention they deserve every day. Their well-being is a natural part of my routine, and I’m committed to keeping them happy and healthy In my home, every dog is treated with gentle care, patience, and consistent attention. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the family—from providing a clean and comfortable space to offering regular meals, playtime, and affection. Their well-being is always a priority, and I take pride in creating a peaceful, caring environment where they can relax and thrive.
“Once again so pleased with Leslies care for our pups! My wife went into labor early this week and Leslie had our pups for the day on fairly short notice! They always come home nice and tuckered out! 10/10 recommend!”
About: I have taken care of pet’s since I was a kid from family pet’s to friends to walking neighbors dogs. Whether your pup is wanting to take a nap on its bed, or chase squirrels in the back yard or take a stroll around the block I’m here to accommodate his/her needs. I work from home majority of the time, the most I’m out of the house is 4 hours consecutively. When I am away and at night I lock the pet’s in their own crate ( unless they have a “thunder-buddy”) to ensure their safety so no accidents happen. Your pet’s health and safety is my top concern. I have a child in home so his safety is also my concern. I know new places and people can give some pup/s anxiety and not all dogs do well with kids. If your doggo is anxious around kids please let me know so that way I can ensure my families safety while also accommodating and ensuring your pet is at ease while in my care. I have a fenced back yard for your pet to get adequate outside time, If your pet likes walks I am happy to take them for a stroll around the block, I am firm on sticking to your pet’s feeding times and will accommodate that to my best ability. I provide treats and toys to pets that are cared for in my home, if your pet requires any type of special care ( allergies, anxiety, food aggression, hyperactive, etc) please don’t hesitate to tell me so I can make sure I am providing your baby the best service possible.
“Jennifer is just the best! She is so loving and kind, and has a heart of gold. She regularly goes above and beyond for my sweet boy and me, and she’s like family now. We just love her and her family to pieces! I wish there were more people in the world like them.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and pets since I was a teenager. My friends relieve on me to watch their dog while they travel. I make sure they are happy, fed ans taken care of as it they were my children I currently work a part-time job from home, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pups. I’m mostly available in the mornings and evenings, but I have a flexible schedule and can work around your needs. I care for pets with patience, attention, and lots of love. In my home, I make sure they have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and cared for.

About: Thanks for checking out my profile! I have a deep love for all animals, cats dogs rats reptiles you name it. I have a lot of experience with seniors, medication administration, and am willing to take on any challenge. I’ve had dogs, cats, rats and ferrets growing up my whole life! I’m currently studying in college to be a wildlife biologist. Please be transparent about your animals behaviors! It will help them have a better experience. I currently work part time, so I’m home most days of the week. I have lots of time to take care and love on your fur babies! I’m also available on the weekends and most holidays. I have a big yard, and my own friendly fur babies to keep yours company when I’m away. If your animal needs to be crated, or separated from other animals, that’s okay just let me know!
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.
“Holly came over for a meet and greet + walked my pups the following day. She was so kind + sweet with the dogs. I’ve booked with her for future walks and would refer to anyone looking for a dog walker!”
“Im so thankful Kendra is able to walk my dogs. She responded right away when I first contact her and was able to walk them the next day. I love seeing the report cards with the pictures. I feel better knowing my dogs get out for a walk during the day.”
“Ayla was a wonderful sitter and walker! She even brought an extra food bowl for my pup when I told her I only had his water bowl! She was attentive, on time and lovely to work with! Thank you Ayla??”

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. 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
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: I've taken care of my own dog for the past 8 years, but before that I was raised around dogs and other animals. My grandparents and uncle always had multiple dogs for hunting, so I am very comfortable around and them and developed a love for dogs at a young age. I have dog sat on various occasions over the past 10 years, and I would love to continue to do it while I’m on the job search. I have a relatively flexible schedule throughout the week since I am pregnant and out of work for the moment, so in most cases would be more than willing to try and work something out. I am currently living in a house with my own dog so I would rather not be doing home services on my end but it is possible for well behaved dogs since my dog is very friendly.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable, compassionate animal lover with hands on experience working in a veterinary clinic. That experience has given me a strong understanding of animal body language and safe handling. I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality and routine. I know every dog is different, and I believe they deserve patience, kindness, and plenty of love while you’re away. I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and lots of attention! I am currently taking classes online so i will be home all day with your fury little friend! I am very flexible and I can work around what works best for you. I have a pup named Potter who love to go to the park. He is overly friendly and love to play. We go on daily walks and park trips and occasionally play in his puppy pool.

“Miss Catherine was absolutely wonderful from the initial introduction to the pickup of our pooch. Sooner stayed 5 days with Miss Catherine and she came back to us like she spent 5 days at discipline school..it was wonderful. Miss Catherine sent updates and videos of Sooner nearly everyday so we wouldn't worry about her while we were out of town. I highly recommend Miss Catherine and will definitely be using her again if she is available. Our first time using a service and she blew us away with her professionalism and love of animals. Miss Catherine is well worth the money. You don't be disappointed!!!!”

“Jennifer was amazing! It was my first time ever having my dog stay was someone that wasn’t a family or friend and I was really nervous for my dog Milo. She was very communicative and send me plenty and pics and videos in which my dog was always smiling in. She gave him lots of love and cuddles and made him feel at home which I appreciated sooo much. This made this a great experience for me and Milo and I plan on bringing him back for daycare since he had such a great time. She was very accommodating to his needs as well, I asked her to put ointment on a few patches he had and I could tell she was keeping up with it bc he’s fur looked so good when I picked him up. I can’t say enough about how satisfied I was with her service. Thank you Jennifer!”
“I’m really cautious about who watches my girls, but trust James in a heartbeat! Luna has so many allergies and he followed all of the details that Luna comes with to properly care for her! I never had a doubt about leaving my Luna with James. He also took the girls outside to play from time to time to release some of their pent up energy! When I brought my fur babies home they were exhausted and nap time all around. I always knew what was going on when I was out of town! Thanks James!!”
