“As a first time Rover user, I was hesitant in trusting our fur baby with strangers. I am so glad I read their reviews and went with my gut instinct! Rue had a great visit and was not in any type of distress after we picked her up - unlike after being boarded. The communication was excellent and we even received daily pictures! I would not hesitate to use them again!”

“Do your pet a favor and hire Cara to pet sit. You will both be glad you did. Cara is kind, dependable, thoughtful and conscientious. She obviously has a way with pets. My cat was enthralled with Cara from the first meeting - headbutting her, rubbing up against her. And, from the pics Cara sent while I was away, my cat’s crush on Cara continued. I was away for nearly three weeks and returned to find a happy and contented cat. Thank you, Cara.”


“I highly recommend Mary. She was absolutely fantastic. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such capable hands. She came on time, followed instructions and made sure everything was ok.”

About: I grew up in a home that always had a dog, I've had my own boy for seven years now and I've been pet sitting for friends and family for the past two! I'm looking to fill my off days while also helping others care for their pets. My schedule is a bit finicky, but I'm happy to answer questions and make something work! I always have water and a portable bowl for the dogs that I walk. The summer heat is no joke and staying hydrated is important.

About: Aristocrats is one of my favorite movies to put it plainly! Aside from dogs I was also raised with cats and have 5 of my living with me now. What sets me apart is being able to understand the different needs between both animals and the knowledge of how to care for both! No need to worry about booking another sitter for having multiple animals.

About: To say I love animals would be an understatement. Children and animals are just two of my passions. I am Mississippi born and raised & excited to make new friends with your fur baby! I offer private house & dog sitting, day boarding and walking services within my community and among friends and family members. I am a former veterinary receptionist and assistant well versed in dog boarding, day care/play dates, daily activities/feeding schedules and habits, etc. I also own & have taken care of family members’ dogs all my life since my youth and they’ve always responded positively to my love and affection. I treat every dog like my own children, to me they are family. They all deserve sufficient love, care and attention. I am a Stay-at-Home Mom who works from home full time as a Birth and Postpartum Doula, childbirth educator and breastfeeding consultant AND PT Tech at Apple. I am available to love on your baby whenever my schedule permits and whenever you need me for private booking. I live in a single family townhome with a dedicated dog park and near a public closed in park with a walking trail in a great, quiet and diverse neighborhood, with my standard goldendoodle, 1 orange tabby, 1 Bombay, 2 Calico DSH and a tuxedo cat. Two children whom loves to play with all and any pets they come into contact with and engages in activities with them.
“My pup,Emma, had a wonderful adventure at Amanda’s home with her beautiful goldendoodles. She was well taken care of and thoroughly enjoyed her stay today! Thank you Amanda for everything! Emma is happily exhausted from her experience today!”

About: I’ve been working with dogs for over 19 years and provide a structured, calm, and safe environment in my home. I have a dedicated dog room with secure kennels, supervised interaction, and clear boundaries. I currently own and train multiple dogs, including a fully trained service animal and another dog I’ve personally raised and developed. This gives me strong experience with behavior, energy management, and different personalities. Dogs in my care are treated like family, but with structure. They can enjoy comfort like furniture once they demonstrate respectful behavior and cleanliness. I do not allow destructive or uncontrolled habits. I’m comfortable with puppies and can reinforce basic training, routine, and good behavior during their stay. I also provide advanced training reinforcement as part of my care. Dogs naturally work on obedience, confidence, impulse control, and daily mental and physical engagement while they’re here. I have experience building service-style task foundations and higher-level behavior, but I do not certify service animals. Every dog benefits from structure in my home, whether they need basic manners or more advanced work. My focus is safety, consistency, and communication so every dog is properly supervised, exercised, and leaves more balanced, responsive, and confident. Pet care is part of my daily routine, not something I fit in on the side. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, structured interaction, and regular potty breaks, exercise, and mental engagement. My background in disciplined environments has shaped how I run my home—dogs here benefit from routine, clear expectations, and a calm, controlled atmosphere. Each day includes a balance of activity, training reinforcement, and rest so dogs stay healthy, settled, and stress-free. Because I’m available throughout the day, I can adapt to each dog’s needs—whether that’s higher energy, puppy structure, or a more relaxed pace. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so owners can feel confident their dog is safe, engaged, and well looked after at all times. Safety, trust, and structure are the foundation of how I care for every dog. My home is set up specifically for pet care, with a dedicated dog room, secure kennels, and supervised interaction at all times. I carefully manage introductions and only allow dogs to interact once they are calm, balanced, and a good fit. Dogs in my care follow a structured routine that includes regular potty breaks, exercise, mental stimulation, and rest. I maintain clear boundaries while still allowing comfort—dogs can enjoy furniture and a relaxed environment once they demonstrate respectful behavior and cleanliness. I require dogs to be crate familiar or comfortable with structured downtime. Owners are encouraged to provide a crate or familiar setup for overnight stays, though I have limited kennel space available if needed. I prioritize communication and will keep owners updated with how their dog is doing. My goal is to provide a calm, controlled environment where dogs feel safe, are properly supervised, and leave more balanced and well cared for than when they arrived.
About: Along with the confident ability to provide the best care for your fur babies, I have experience working as a veterinary assistant, and I begin vet tech school in the fall! Being a dog mom myself, I know how difficult it can be to leave your fur babies for any amount of time. I hope that as your potential pet sitter, I will be able to give you as much peace of mind as possible when doing so. My promise is to treat each of your animals as they were my own—with love, patience, and compassion! Being experienced in the veterinary field, I also have the ability and training to care for senior pets, pets who may be diabetic, take medications, etc. As a student, My schedule has gaps in it that do allow for me to care for your pet multiple times a day. This will give me time to care for your pet as you request! I have a fenced in yard that your pet will be able to have supervised play time as much as they would like! I am extremely flexible. However you typically go about your day with your pet, I will do my best to keep that routine for the comfort of your pet!
About: I’ve spent my entire life on a farm with multiple different animals( at one point I even had a pet opossum). I’m used to having 6 dogs in the house with me and I’m super homesick and miss them! I have one dog here. She’s a border collie named Eloise and she’s very friendly and loves all other animals. I would love to care for your animals too! I spend a lot of time with Eloise taking her to the dog park, watching movies, and doing other activities and would be happy to add a few more to the party. I have experience with almost every dog breed and love them all, especially the quirky ones. I work weekends but am available Monday through Thursday. I can also do pickups and am comfortable with animals in the car. I can do early morning walks or runs on the weekends though. In my house the animals are my equals and my friends. I feed them first, they are allowed on the furniture, and i genuinely want them to be as comfortable and happy as i can make them. I have a fenced in backyard and front yard. I also like to go for runs in the morning so I would be happy to provide them with as much or as little exercise as they prefer.

I also have a fanny pack for treats (with your approval), doggy bags for poo, and wipes for paws as needed.

Any special food plans, medications, or specific tasks can and will be done according to your directions and instruction. You know them best, after all! 💞 All of my services will include several pictures and fun videos to share with you so you don’t miss any of it. 🌟

We frequently go to the dog park to get exercise and take long walks. 🐾💕
“As a first time Rover user, I was hesitant in trusting our fur baby with strangers. I am so glad I read their reviews and went with my gut instinct! Rue had a great visit and was not in any type of distress after we picked her up - unlike after being boarded. The communication was excellent and we even received daily pictures! I would not hesitate to use them again!”

“I was total happy with Captain’s stay with Kanieshawa. She was very understanding when I forgot the time of Captain’s drop off. She provided updates and comments which were very helpful. I will be using her services again should we need them.”

“Tiera is absolutely amazing. My fur baby loved her and was very comfortable with her and her home. Her dog was also very welcoming to my dog and they got along great. She played fetch with him, took him from walks, and spent time with him. She kept me updated each day with pictures and text messages of what he was doing. She was very accommodating for early drop off when i needed it and was willing to work with me if I was late for pick up. I highly recommend her and look forward to using her in my near future”

“WE LOVE MARY PEYTON! It was such a relief to be able to enjoy our vacation knowing our Pinky girl was well taken care of! We got regular updates and pictures of our girl and Mary Peyton even bathed her, trimmed her nails and cleaned her ears! She will definitely be our go-to girl from now on when we go out of town! Thank you, MP! You're the best!”

About: I’ve spent my entire life on a farm with multiple different animals( at one point I even had a pet opossum). I’m used to having 6 dogs in the house with me and I’m super homesick and miss them! I have one dog here. She’s a border collie named Eloise and she’s very friendly and loves all other animals. I would love to care for your animals too! I spend a lot of time with Eloise taking her to the dog park, watching movies, and doing other activities and would be happy to add a few more to the party. I have experience with almost every dog breed and love them all, especially the quirky ones. I work weekends but am available Monday through Thursday. I can also do pickups and am comfortable with animals in the car. I can do early morning walks or runs on the weekends though. In my house the animals are my equals and my friends. I feed them first, they are allowed on the furniture, and i genuinely want them to be as comfortable and happy as i can make them. I have a fenced in backyard and front yard. I also like to go for runs in the morning so I would be happy to provide them with as much or as little exercise as they prefer.
