Personalized care for your dog or cat - Alfalfa Center

“Jean was amazing! I have a high-energy Goldendoodle, and she was great with her. She kept me updated with photos where my pup was either playing with other dogs or happily doing her own thing. I felt totally at ease the whole time knowing she was in such good hands. Great communication, super thoughtful care!”

“Charlotte is the absolute best pet sitter. She was wonderful with our Irish Terrier, Darcy. She took her to the dog park multiple times and sent us texts and pictures to keep us updated which was wonderful. We would absolutely recommend her to watch anyone's fur babies. ❤ ? ❤?”

“Hi. Amanda and her family took the best care of our Shanay! Shanay went on outside a lot and played with the family’s dogs. Amanda was very attentive and kept me up dated. It was truly a pleasure to board our dog with Amanda, she provided nurture and love. Thanks a million!!!!”

About: Over 17 plus years of dedicated, successful experience in loving, caring for, and nurturing animals, ensuring their safety, health, happiness, trust, and overall well-being daily. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily life—I’ve had pets all my life, continue to lovingly care for my own, and bring that same devotion to every animal I meet. My home is a warm, pet-friendly environment where animals are treated like family; even my 5 and 9-year-old sons have been raised to treat pets with respect, kindness, and gentle care.

About: I was born and raised around pets which include your typical farm animals as well! I have always had dogs, cats, birds and even fishes! I hold my animals dear to my heart! I will take care of your animals like they are my own! I have a soft spot for Dogs and Cats. I don’t mind walking dogs but it’s more than likely your dog will be walking me! I love playing with animals, it makes me happy and the animal as well! If you need to ask me questions, feel free! And I’m looking forward to meeting your animal(s)! I work as a Pharmacy Technician, but I have free time to take care of your animals! Let me know what you are looking for and I can let you know if I’m available! Maggie Mae is my pride and joy. She’s a very lazy English bulldog that needs more care than the average dog. I will take care of your fur babies like their my own!

“Jonathan did a great job with our two cats. He was wonderful to work with and made sure that they were well taken care of while we were on vacation.”

About: I have always had pets growing up, and have taken care of countless pets of all species, breeds, ages, and sizes for friends/family since high school. I love the challenge of winning over an animal that is hesitant around new people. The more stubborn they are to warm up to new people, the harder I try to win them over. But it is always at their pace and on their terms so that they are completely comfortable with me. Your pets will be loved and spoiled like they are my own. I am available during the nights for in-home pet sitting, with the option to pop in during the day to let your pet out and for feedings. When I care for pets in their own home I make sure that the pet owners show me where everything is located within the home for the animals, and leave emergency numbers such as vets in an accessible place in the case of emergency. I will take as much time with your pets as they need in order to be comfortable and well provided for.

About: I will tell you a bit about me and I need to know about your dog as well. Before contacting me about caring for your dog, make sure their profile(s) is completed here on Rover. Upload a picture and submit as much info as you can provide. It helps me determine if your dog is a good fit for what I can provide. About me: Raised in the country surrounded by both family pets and farm animals, caring for critters is second nature to me. I am a doting grandma who lives too far away from my kids to see my grandchildren so I channel that attention toward my Australian Shepherd, Gumbo, and my new puppy, Boo, the Yorki-Poo. After I lost my husband and best friend I found the best way to cope is to help others and keep busy. If I can help you out with your dog or cat while you're away, let me know. I can use the extra income but also I need to feel useful. I keep my fee low. Tips are appreciated. I board at my home in the country near Dukedom, TN. Think of boarding here as bringing your dog to Grandma's house. There will be some spoiling and if pet parents permit, homemade dog cookies! Currently I am home all the time. Your dog will be with me and my dog while here. Gumbo (30 pound neutered male) likes to play fetch or frisbee and we do this daily. I feed my dog early morning (6-7) and early evening (6-7). I give a lot of outside time when weather allows. I give my dog a lot of attention and your dog(s) will get the same. We are a pack and your dog will be part of that pack when he/she stays with us. I live on 6 acres near Dukedom, TN. My large backyard has a chain link fence. If your dog likes to play ball or frisbee this is a great yard to do it in. In addition to the backyard, I have a large field that I keep a path mowed around just for walks but to go there your dog(s) must have excellent recall or be leashed trained very well. I don't want to be pulled around or have to struggle to hold them. Dogs really like going to the field. "No" is the word I use to stop misbehavior. If there is a different word you use, let me know. It is good to know what words/phrases your dog recognizes. It'd be great if you write those down and give it to me. I have carpet throughout my living quarters so PLEASE only housebroken dogs. I give numerous long outdoor time between 5 AM to 9 PM. Potty breaks are every couple of hours. Your pet must be vaccinated! Bordatella vacs are recommended every six-to-twelve months. if your dog frequents places with other dogs, get 6 month vaccine. My dogs are vaccinated. In the warmer months, it is very important that dogs have a flea and tick preventative or have some defense against these nasty bugs because both are out here. I keep grass mowed but they still get on the dogs so make sure they have a preventative. My dogs wear clothing treated with Sawyer flea/tick spray and I have had great success with that method along with a monthly prescribed medicine. Bring your pet's food/bowls/treats along with feeding instructions. Filling out pet profile in depth on Rover helps tremendously! It has an area for vet info and anything I would need to know about your dog can be on their profile! Gumbo has dog toys that he shares but if your dog has a fave, bring it. If your dog must sleep in a bed or crate, bring it. Sometimes a sweater or anything with your scent on it comforts a dog that misses his/her owner. You're welcome to bring that. If he/she has a brush that you want me to use, bring it. I can brush dogs but have no proper facility to bathe. In the summer, I have a small dog pool to cool off in and plenty of shade in the backyard. NO cell service out here so I do not carry my phone with me. I check my messages several times thru the day but I'm not like most that have their phone on them. It does me no good. Many rural people pay for cell service despite not getting it at their homes. I have a landline that works providing my internet service works. If there is anything else you need to know, do not hesitate to ask. I have my profile set to only take in three dogs at a time. I have two so I think five is enough. I am very attentive so rest assured I am keeping a good eye on them.

About: Experienced in 25 years with all domesticated animals from bottle feeding to senior care. I have raised and rehabilitated lots of animals. I have a lot of experience at rehabilitating wildlife as well. I stay in contact with local shelters, vets, and sanctuaries. I currently work from home and I make my own schedule so that allows me to know in advance what days I can book your furry (or non furry) pal! Being home also allows me to spend much needed time with your pet, especially if separation anxiety is an issue. I will take multiple pets from the same owner. I want your pal(s) to have the best experience at our home. I stay at home the majority of the time. One of my three dogs are crate trained. I have experience with crate training if your dog is used to a crate upon leaving or at night. I have a separate 3rd bathroom that I have always used for my own dogs in case they need to be put up a while upon leaving briefly. If your little guy or gal is shy, no worries I have all the patience needed for that. If he/she wants to stay away from the others, I have a separate large room (with TV for noise) and extra bathroom. My dogs love watching dog TV, and maybe yours will too. If your pal follows a strict schedule, it would not be a problem to accommodate!

About: I love all dogs more than anything in this world! I met my first soulmate when I got my dog, Patches, who I still have and is currently 5 years old. I can train dogs, any type of training you can think of. And you can ensure this place as a safe haven for your furry friend while here at the Hilton! 😝 I’m currently working at UPS as a seasonal support delivery driver. But it’s only temporary until after the new year. I do work Monday-Saturday right now but i leave my house around 9:30-10 and am always home by 3:00 p.m. But while im gone there will always be another person here to watch after your dog, i.e., my dad, or my mom. I have a big fenced in yard. It is an 8 ft chain link fence so they will get plenty of exercise. I have 2 dogs that can keep your furry friend company! But if you’re dog isn’t really into other dogs, I do have a seperate area that’s just as big and also fenced in with an 8 ft Chain link fence all around! So they could either be with my dogs or seperate from my dogs!

“Very professional and kind Would use his service at anytime.”

About: Ive taken care of my neighbors cats and walked other friends dogs multiple times and I've always loved all kinds of animals I've also taken care of my brothers snake before as well I'm available to walk, drop in or even house sit all kinds of animals. I can do it mainly during the day but I can also do house sitting that requires over night stays I can't have other dogs to come over to my house due to having 2 other dogs and 3 cats in the house so I can't bring them here. But I have plenty of experience caring for them in other environments

About: I’ve always had/been around dogs. With that comes responsibility and loving care. I have experience with all sizes and willing to accommodate any special needs. I’m currently a college student at Murray State, almost all my classes are online besides on Tuesday. My schedule is flexible, we can work out a time/date together. I do go to church on Sunday, so I would need that morning/afternoon off. I am a big cuddle bug. I pay attention to the small details. I enforce rules while trying to add some tricks. I keep the environment light and I try to accommodate in anyway for my clients and their babies(dogs).
