Personalized care for your dog or cat - Wakefield
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Wakefield
“This was our first boarding experience with our 6 month old puppy. Myra came through for my family in a pinch & we are so grateful. She sent pics of our boy while we were away & he appeared to be in great spirits. When we arrived for pickup, it was obvious that he was comfortable with both Myra and her home, which was very comforting as well. Would recommend.”
“Duke had a wonderful time with Laura at the farm and enjoyed playing with the other doggies, animals and children. Laura kept in touch and is a wonderful sitter. Great environment for our dog!”
“My two pups had a great time! Merry sent pictures and updates regularly. She took them on walks and had play dates to get their energy out. Would recommend!”
“We highly recommend Megan! She took great care of our senior bulldog Puck. He gets anxious with any kind of change, and she helped to make him comfortable and make him food to help with his sensitive/ upset stomach. She did great giving him medicine and eye drops. Will definitely book with Megan again. Thanks!”
“Another great stay with Ruby!! We’re so glad we found her. Our boys just love spending their time with her and she is just so amazing with them. She’s also so great with photo and video updates…it really makes being away from my boys so much easier. I know they’re always in great hands with Ruby! ❤️”
“Anita thank you so very much for taking care of our precious Ella!!!!! I highly recommend Anita, she has such a sweet spirt, friendly and very professional. We felt very comfortable and relax while on our 5-day vacation, because she provided daily pictures of Ella and kept us updated. Thanks a Million, you are the best.”
“Todd & Gail were amazing! They came through for me me at extremely short notice to board and wipe for artichokes, small, my precious Seven during a crucial moment when I needed a sitter right away. Immediately, after being welcomed into their home to sit for a minute I knew right away. It was a good environment, and that they were good people. They were great to my dog Seven and I appreciate them so much. I will definitely be using them Todd & Gail again if need be!”
“Gage is amazing with our girl! He always keeps us updated on how she’s doing and can somehow make her smile in all the pics! She is always SO happy to be with other dogs. She loves staying with them. Would definitely recommend!”
“Highly recommend Chris & Tommie! It was our first time leaving Arwen and we knew instantly she was in good hands. Great communication with daily updates while we were away. We will definitely re-book in the future!”
“Brett and Stephanie took exceptional care of my two dogs while we were on vacation. Since this was our first time using them, they meet us and our dogs days before to ensure we were comfortable in selecting them. Exceptional communication from the moment I reached out, until after the end of our dogs’ stay in their home. Pics and videos sent throughout each day. They offered the use of their kennel for our puppy so I didn’t have to load up and bring our own. They had toys for our dogs to play with on top of the personal ones we brought. My mind was at ease during our entire vacation, and I have to admit they seemed reluctant to leave when I came to pick them up and take them home!!! Will be using Brett and Stephanie from this point forward! And I know my dogs will look forward to visiting them again soon.”
“Jennifer was so amazing with taking care of my dog thunder and giving him all the love and attention he needs. My dog is a husky so he comes with some accommodations and she was more than willing and able to accommodate him. Great at sending pictures and keeping you updated on your pup!”
“Rugby had a great stay with Cam! He really loves other dogs and he had a chance to play with her dog and another dog. As it turned out my son broke his leg while we were away and it was very reassuring during that difficult time to know that Rugby was getting excellent care. Thank you again Cam!”
“Sharon provided excellent care for my fur baby! She is attentive and kept me updated with everything he was doing; she also took pictures and shared them with me. She is the absolute best.”
“Sylvia and her husband is always a pleasure, and Nala loves them. They communicate very well and keep you updated with pictures and videos of your baby. I truly appreciate them.”
“Shabnam was wonderful! She gave us daily picture updates and was always quick to respond to messages. She was flexible with drop off and pickup times and our dogs have been so sleepy since being home so I know she kept them busy. Highly recommend!!”
“Ms. Nina is a great sitter. She gave updates about my dog & was very flexible with pick up and drop off timing. I felt at ease with my dog at her home. Thank you so much!!!”
“Bridgett was great. She sent daily updates and pictures and communicated efficiently from the moment I reached out about her availability. I would absolutely use her again!”
“We are repeat customers. Alison was kind enough to watch Brody for two full weeks while I recovered from surgery. She kept me updated with photos and videos at least twice a day. He looked like he was having the time of his life staying in her home. I was worried he wouldn’t want to leave! Highly recommend this loving home for your pup!”

The mail was all in a pile. Their water dishes were good. I have all good things to say! It was very nice not having to worry about my boys.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior cats. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, administering basic medications, and giving lots of love and attention. I understand that every cat has a different personality, and I’m patient with shy or anxious cats while also keeping energetic cats engaged with playtime. I treat every cat like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away
About: I've been caring for cats for as long as I can remember. In my teen years, my family rescued and cared for a total of ten cats at once. Growing up in a home with up to ten cats at once taught me how to handle every type of feline personality - from cuddly lap cats to those who prefer their personal space. I have experience with Cats who are fearful, apprehensive, or slow to warm up. I can maintain the litter box, play, administer oral meds, give injections, and support anxious or reactive cats. If your cat has quirks, medical needs, or a big personality, I'm the sitter who won't be intimidated.
“Hannah was great in taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She made everything simple and eased any worries we had about leaving our cats for two weeks. She's awesome and so sweet!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Kayla absolutely put our minds at ease. We have two cats who love attention, and that’s just want Kayla did. She was great at communicating before and during the visit. Definitely recommend!”
About: I have never had an animal not love me at first sight. I have had 3 dogs and raised 4 cats so I am very familiar with animals I am currently in college so my schedule allows for me to stay the night with your pets or just come and check on them any time necessary. At least 2-3 times a day. More if needed I keep my animals safe, secure, and well fed. I will treat your pet like my own and give them lots of love and treats if so permitted.
“Melissa is wonderful! Used her for a second time and will continue to use her. She is very caring and loves animals! She always send pictures and updates! Highly recommend!!”
“Samantha is a great pet sitter. She sent us detailed messages and pictures about the cats and how they were doing. She did everything as we asked for. Highly recommend her to be your pet sitter.”
“Heather did an excellent job taking care of our cats, KiKi and Hissabella, during her drop-in visits. She was dependable, attentive, and made sure they were well cared for while we were away. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We appreciated the updates and could tell our cats were comfortable and happy. We would definitely recommend Heather and would gladly have her care for KiKi and Hissabella again!”
About: I'm a country girl. I love all animals. I was raised on a farm. Animal caretaking is my specialty. I also attended school for assistant laboratory animal technology I'm currently working from home. I spend my time caring for my own pets. I also pet sit for friends and family members when they are out of town. I have a fenced backyard. I also have a fence inside of that fence. Which will separate bigger dogs from the smaller ones. I have a closed in patio for puppies or pets that just want to be left alone.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and truly love animals of all ages and personalities. I’m especially patient, attentive, and affectionate, and I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and loved while they’re away. I’m comfortable caring for senior pets, giving medications if needed, and helping shy or anxious animals feel calm and comfortable.
“Adel did a great job taking care of our two cats. They were relaxed around him and he kept them on their feeding and playing schedule. He was also excellent with sending regular updates. Would definitely recommend him to others!”
“Titeara took wonderful care of our Phoebe. 💜 She was very intentional about getting to know her and introducing her to the new space. She asked great questions about what would make Phoebe feel safe and happy while we were away. It’s always hard to leave behind a pet especially with someone new, but we received so many pictures and updates that demonstrated attention to our girl and care for our preferences for her. Phoebe had a great time there, and it was really great to see pictures of her daily- clearly confident, loving, and playful.”

About: I have loved and cared for animals ever since I was a child. And look forward to caring for your pet. Hope to see you I am a retired mail carrier and would love to spoil your fur baby while you are away. Plenty of toys and fun,hugs,and laps to sit on I have a fenced back yard and a small 3 year old fixed Boston Terrier who loves playing with other dogs. Under watchful dog mom eyes. We have a one year old male Boston who is also dog friendly. and fixed.
About: I'm a lifelong dog owner and lover of many different breeds. I currently have a miniature pinscher and a dachshund who are used to company and making new friends. I've also owned beagles, terriers, and a Belgian malinois. I love to play with dogs and take them on walks. I'm responsible, reliable, punctual, and fun! I'm home every afternoon and am free for walks some mornings and I will be available for walks in the early evening during the warmer months. I'm comfortable giving them oral medications or a special diet. In a nutshell, I love dogs and enjoy them more than most people. I'd be happy to take yours on a walk or babysit. I'm also comfortable bathing and brushing them (I haven't mastered haircuts yet, though). I love all size dogs, but as I am a smaller person, it's easier for me to handle breeds under 40 pounds. I work from home part time and am home everyday so boarding and dog sitting fits in easily with my daily routine. I'm usually free on the weekends as well I have a fenced in yard and a doggy door in my home. I'm home everyday and have a pup of my own to keep your dog company.
“Our boy spent the day with Maggie and her crew in preparation for his week-long visit in a few weeks and it was a great experience. Maggie sent us updates throughout his visit and earned our pup's trust, which is not easily given. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Jennifer is absolutely great with dogs my chihuahua is so scared of everything she made my baby at ease. This was a first to leave her she sent updates daily and photos couldn't ask for a better person to watch your furbabies. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who worries as much as I do. She is the right person. Loves dogs couldn't happier”

About: I currently work in veterinary medicine and am enrolled in vet tech school, so caring for animals is something I’m passionate about both professionally and personally. I have experience handling pets of different sizes, temperaments, and medical needs, and I always prioritize safety, patience, and comfort. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or a calm routine, I’ll make sure they feel cared for and loved while you’re away. I work at an Animal hospital in Oxford currently, so I have lots of free time to take care of furry friends! I also spend most of my time at home! Although I do stay in a tiny home, I have access to the dog park right up the road! I am more than willing to carry your pup to the dog park multiple times a day if needed, it’s almost a 5 min drive! If sitting at your place, I’m still happy to take them to the dog park! I can also send updates on how you’re pets doing throughout the day with pictures!

“I can’t say enough great things about Kayla! She took amazing care of my 6.5-week-old Belgian Malinois puppy, going above and beyond to make sure she was happy and well cared for. She provided regular updates with pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was in great hands. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treated my girl like her own. I highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and attentive pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve always taken care of dogs, mine, my families, and friends. They life exciting, there’s simply not much better than the smiles they give me. I train part time. I have plenty of time in between sessions so it is just perfect for my schedule and daily routine. As well as flexibility. I have a fenced in yard at my dads with a Great Dane, and I have to walk my moms maltipoo and morkie. I’ve also always had a cat or 2 and even a few reptiles. Nothing scares me so I can do it all 🤣.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for most of my life—cats were actually my first love, and I’m still a total sucker for them! While I don’t currently have a cat of my own, I’m very happy to provide drop-in care for your feline family members. At home, I have two friendly Golden Retrievers, Aspen and Indy, who enjoy having canine companions around. I work from home, so dogs staying with me get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. We also have a large fenced yard where they have plenty of room to safely get outside and play. I know every pet has their own personality and routine—from the social butterfly who wants constant attention to the shy one who needs time and patience to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care for them like I would want someone to care for mine. And because I know how hard it can be to leave them, I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home, so I’m home throughout the day with my own two dogs, Aspen and Indy. This gives me plenty of flexibility for meals, potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles and lots of companionship. Pets staying with me won’t routinely be left alone for long stretches, and we also have a large fenced yard for plenty of outdoor time. I’m also available for drop-in visits depending on the location and requested time. I finish my workday in the early afternoon, so my afternoons and evenings are generally very flexible for drop-ins. Morning or daytime visits may also be possible depending on timing and distance—just send me a request and we can see if it works! In my home, I try to keep your pet’s routine as close to what they’re used to as possible. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, meals, playtime, attention and plenty of cuddles. We have a large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and my two Golden Retrievers, Aspen and Indy, are friendly and enjoy having canine companions. I can accommodate different comfort levels and personalities. If your dog enjoys being social, they can join Aspen and Indy for playtime and relaxation. If your pet is more comfortable having their own space or needs to be kept separate from other animals, I can accommodate that as well. My goal is for each pet to feel safe and comfortable rather than expecting every animal to interact. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, sleeping arrangements and any special routines or needs. I know being away from home can be stressful, so I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable and treated like part of the family while they’re here. For drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine in their own home, including feeding and fresh water, potty breaks or litter box care, medications if needed, playtime and plenty of attention and affection. I’m also happy to simply provide companionship for pets who are shy or prefer interaction on their own terms. I’ll provide photos and updates during stays or visits so you can relax knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of dogs and many different animals since I was a child! I had many pets ranging from birds, frogs, iguanas, hermit crabs, ferrets, cats, and dogs. I have always been an animal lover! I unfortunately do not get to have a pet of my own due to my husband being in the Air Force. Which means we move around a lot. This has been really hard for me considering the fact that my whole life I’ve been acclimated to caring for and loving pets. Being able to care for your pet while we are stationed here in the Memphis area would fulfill my dreams of being able to take care of animals. I’m currently a stay at home mom and disabled veteran. As long as my kids are at school (7 AM-2 PM) I am 100% available! Outside of those hours I could pet sit for you at my home! I can accommodate depending on your preferences for your fur baby and depending if they are potty trained. I have a 2800 sq ft home. And a huge back yard for your fur baby to play in.
About: I have taken care of newborn orphan puppies and I have potty trained my friends' adult dog. My friends and family say I have a lot of patience. I am a full-time college student. I am home most of the time and I think Rover will give me something fun to do. I absolutely love pets of any kind. I love how they have their own personality I care about their health and happiness. I am very organized and I can stick to a strict schedule. I will make sure your fur baby is comfortable and happy. I'm more than happy to send pictures/videos of your pet every hour to let you know how your fur baby is doing.
“Oh my! Where do I start? Ruby is absolutely wonderful!! She is kind, welcoming, sweet, loving with my little dog and with her own dogs, (and also with birds of the sky), personable,very flexible,_ and accommodating!!! She took lots of wonderful photos during the day and shared them, just as I'd asked. I truly believe she made my dog feel at home, and when I picked him up at the end of the day, he appeared well cared for and happy. I am very happy with the service she provided today, and I believe my dog felt welcomed in her 🏡. I will feel very comfortable and happy to leave him in her care the next time I need her services.💖”
About: I have been pet sitting/ dog walking for almost 7 years now, and I absolutely love it! As a huge animal person, I can confidently say that pets are my passion! I want to love your furbaby like I love my own! I would love to take care of any needs you may have. Feel free to ask any questions! I am a junior at Ole Miss. I mostly have online classes, so I am free a lot! I am also free for overnight housesitting needs! I have 2 dogs back home in Georgia and I miss them so much! They are the happiest pups ever! My roommates and I have a Golden Retriever that we adopted last year! As far as boarding and doggy daycare goes, he would love to play with your pup, but they can also be easily separated if needed! I have so much love for pets, and would love to share so much love to yours!

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Wakefield
About: Hi, I’m Kayla! 🐾 Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog, Brownie, when I was 6 years old, and he was truly my best friend. After caring for him from puppyhood through his senior years, I learned just how much our pets become part of our families. Although we sadly lost him a few years ago, my love for animals has only continued to grow. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from young puppies to seniors, and I’m comfortable with pets who need a little extra care and patience. I have helped train puppies, worked with multiple litters of puppies, cared for senior dogs, and have experience with dogs with diabetes and arthritis. I have also received training through the SPCA working with both cats and dogs. Pet care has been something my family has been involved in for years. My mom and sister were pet sitters, and I spent a lot of time helping them care for their clients' pets. I also have 2+ years of experience working with horses, so I’m comfortable around animals of all sizes! 🏡 Your pets get my full attention Pet sitting is currently my primary work, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate a lot of time to the animals in my care. When I’m staying with your pets, they aren't simply being “checked on”—I want them to feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. Every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pup loves: 🐾 Long walks or short strolls 🎾 Playing fetch and getting some energy out 🛋️ Curling up on the couch for a lazy afternoon 💕 Lots of cuddles and attention 🥣 Keeping a specific feeding schedule 💊 Extra care or medication 🌳 Spending time outside …I’m happy to accommodate them. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing that your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving the same love and attention I would want someone to give my own. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, send regular updates and photos, and make sure you come home to happy, well-loved pets. ❤️ Your pets aren't just a booking to me—they're family, and I’ll treat them that way. This is currently my only job, so I will have plenty of time to take extreme care of your best furry friend who you love so much! I will use respect when it comes to being in and around someone else’s property, I will make sure everything is locked up, and put away when I leave, I will walk the pet if need be however long or short, I can play with them, give them cuddles, and love on them!
About: My husband and I are furtunate enough to work from home. Along with our adult daughter, we take pleasure in caring for, and showering love on, our furry guests. I began my career as a professional dog trainer/behaviorist in Southern California in 1996. It wasn't until after our move to Las Vegas in 2002 that my business was truly established. However, in 2011, we unexpectedly uprooted and moved to Houston, TX, and found myself heading into a new venture in the dog industry. During our 9 years in Texas, I become involved with other canine endeavors, including competing in AKC Conformation with our Akitas and Whippets and occasionally assisting in breed-specific and all-breed rescue organizations. After moving to northwest Mississippi in August 2020, we decided to continue offering our boarding and pet care services because of how much we enjoy it. In addition to playing with dogs, I have a part-time position in my home, which enables me to give each of our canine guests plenty of attention. My husband works full-time from home and is always available as a backup in case I have to run off to an appointment. Also living in our home are our two young adult daughters, Beth & Rachel. We are all dog lovers who also happen to be "dog-wise". Our own dogs are friendly and well-behaved and enjoy having fur-friends come to visit. Admittedly, we do have a good amount of dogs, but we have established a great routine and, if our fur-guest isn't too sure at first, we have plenty of options in keeping dogs separated until our fur-guest feels comfortable and happy. We have a considerable amount of experience at pairing dogs in appropriate play groups according to size, temperament and activity level. Our home is situated on nearly 2 acres with about a half-acre securely fenced for dogs to play in. Our active guests will have tons of fun outside playing with each other and chasing squirrels, in addition to spending a large portion of the day and all night relaxing inside our home. Our more sedentary guests have plenty of laps, couch space, and dog beds to laze around on. While crates are a useful tool for keeping dogs comfortable and safe, especially during the brief periods nobody is home, rest assured your sweet babies will not be locked in a crate for long periods. We also have extensive experience with many types of animals, such as chickens, goats, donkeys and horses and offer drop-in visits, where we come to your home to feed, exercise, and interact with your pet(s) and/or farm animals. Our fee is "per visit" and is the same regardless of the number of pets/animals. Additionally, I offer house sitting on a case-by-case basis where I spend nights at your home. Again, our "per night" fee is the same regardless of the number and type of pets/animals in your home or on your property. However, a premium may be assessed if the care of livestock is fairly substantial. Currently, we are only serving the areas of Holly Springs, Byhalia, and Red Banks for drop-in visits but are available to drive longer distances for house sitting. Feel free to request more information. We have a securely fenced yard and friendly dogs to keep your dog company during the periods I am working in my home office. Our weekends are typically not very busy, but there are 4 of us available to love and care for your pet. We begin each day with a quick stretch of the legs and a potty break followed by breakfast then playtime outside. Dogs are divided into small groups according to size and play style then rotated between fun time in our fenced yard and relaxing in our home on dog beds and couches. Evenings are often spent playing family games or watching a movie. For bedtime, dogs can sleep in our rooms, on the couch, or in their crate, depending on where they're most comfortable.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—whether that means keeping up with a playful puppy’s energy or giving extra patience and comfort to a senior pet who needs a slower pace. I have experience with pets of all ages, including young animals who are still learning routines like potty training, crate training, and basic commands. I stay consistent with whatever training methods you’re using so your pet doesn’t get confused while you’re away. For senior pets, I understand the importance of gentle care, medication routines, and watching closely for any changes in behavior or comfort. I’m attentive, calm, and always focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and stress-free in their own environment. I’m also big on communication—I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, or just some extra love, I’m here to provide reliable, personalized care every time. I would love to spend my free time with any and all the pets. My off days at work would be perfect for this job! Any pet brought to my home will be treated as well as they deserve to be treated, and same when and if I was to come to anyone’s home! Respect is my biggest manor!
About: I'm highly skilled at reading animal body language. I have experience with anxious, temperamental, excitable, shy, and senior pets. I've cared for cats since a young age and have more recent hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I'm comfortable supporting both energetic younger pets and older pets who require a softer approach. I am able to handle animals gently, give oral/injection medications, routine care, play, and feeding. I am currently work part-time Monday through Wednesday from 10:00am-6:00pm. On Thursdays and Fridays, I'm fully available during the day and usually make plans around 6:00pm, but I'm always happy to stop by before or after. I'm completely available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for visits, drop-ins, or extended care. I always make sure I'm aware of any pet allergies, medical needs, and medications that must be given. If a medication has to be administered at a specific time, I will adjust my schedule to ensure your pet's safety and consistency. I take care to keep toxic plants, foods, and loose wires out of reach, and I maintain clean litter boxes and bowls throughout my visits. If certain pets cannot share a space, I will follow your instructions closely to keep everyone safe and comfortable. In case of emergencies, I have a reliable vehicle that pets can safely ride in if transportation is needed.
About: I am overly loving towards dogs and have all the patience for them. I’m a physician associate and am comfortable taking care of pet special needs! I currently a travel PA and working on my doctorate so my schedule is quite flexible. When I am not traveling for work, I am home studying. I have about half off the month off and do better when I have plans such as watching your pet! My schedule is flexible so if you don’t see availability, please PM/request separately! I currently live in a condo with a large outdoor private dog park so I am willing have them with me upon request! I am also open to house visits and always intend to leave your home better than I found it!
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I have a dog who turns 8 this year, which I take full responsibility, that includes: vet visits, grooming, and activities. I also have trained her to do cool tricks! I've taken care of my sister's 2 dogs as well while she was on vacation. I have a lot of experience with small animals too! I have the whole summer off from college, and I am recovering from my illness, so I believe that taking care of a pet will fit into my schedule without interrupting doctor visits. It also is not as straining as a retail job. I will make sure to check for areas that could cause harm to an animal and provide a solution to the problem to ensure safety. I am also schedule sensitive, so I make sure that animals get fed on time.
About: I am a pet person! I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have cared for my own dogs and cats throughout my adult life. Animals have always been part of my family, and I truly love caring for fur babies of all ages and personalities. I treat every pet like my own, with patience, affection, attention, cuddles, and lots of love. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known in my community for taking care of friends’ pets when they’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, supervision, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood and love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. My home is very pet-friendly, I have a large, fenced in backyard, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my daily life. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like family. I have a secure fenced-in backyard with plenty of green space for dogs to safely play, explore, and get exercise. Pets will receive lots of attention, supervision, affection, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m happy to follow each pet owner’s routines, feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special preferences to help pets feel comfortable and secure. If needed, I can also crate pets according to the owner’s instructions and comfort level.
“Jenny has been an excellent dog walker for us! She’s professional, flexible with scheduling, and communicative. 100% recommend and will be using her services for boarding in the future! She shows my baby lot of love and attention too!”
About: I have had pets since I was a child . From fish, turtles, dogs , cats and a guinea pig . I love animals so much. I am currently working part time and I’m usually gone 4-5 hours a day . Other than that I am home pretty much all day. I have a small fenced in yard that would be great for your pet to get a breath of fresh air . And enjoy some play time
About: Back in 2014, I attended Tennessee College of Applied Technology, graduated early with my diploma in Assistance Animal Laboratory Technicians, also with a certification in Purina Mills Animal Care Course. I have done an internship with North Shelby Animal Shelter as well as Bartlett Animal Shelte, where I took stray dogs/ abandoned out for walks and to play. Most of the dogs I encountered with at the shelter were sweet and loving dogs that just need a friend and time to spend with a person. I treated those dogs as my own. I have also intern at University of Tennessee Health and Science Center taking care of rodents, pigs, and other animals. I am someone who is mature, candid and who has integrity. Everyday I work to improve myself and my skills which is part of maturing and becoming better at what I do, this is why I want clients to choose me. I will treat your pets as my own pets. I will love and care for them, as if they where my own.
About: I’ve owned different breeds of dogs from pit bulls to chihuahuas. Growing up I was the dog sitter for everyone around. I bathed walked and took care of them mostly from the comfort of their own homes as their owners were away on trips. I am between jobs rn so for the next couple weeks I am completely free any time of day any day for whatever needs my pets may need. My yard is not fenced in so outside time at my house will consist of being walked on a leash for as long as the dogs may need. But otherwise they will be inside.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve spent many years caring for dogs and cats for friends, family, and clients. I have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. What sets me apart is the level of attention I give every pet. I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, medication, extra cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I strive to provide that peace of mind every single visit. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide dependable care throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays when available. Because pet care is my priority, I can accommodate regular walks, drop-in visits, overnight house sitting, and customized schedules to meet your pet’s needs. I understand that every family has a different routine, and I’m happy to work with yours to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your pets and your home with the same respect and care I would my own. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, and any special needs to help your pet maintain a sense of normalcy while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority. During walks, I use secure leashing practices, stay alert to our surroundings, and make sure pets are safely returned home after every outing. For house sitting and drop-in visits, I keep your home tidy, double-check doors and gates, and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I've had pets all of my life. I love all animals especially dogs. I currently have a toy poodle named jewels . Jewels is actually my sister's dog but she was born on my birthday and we've been inseparable since the first day I laid eyes on her. The love of a pet is unconditional and that's one of the characteristics i love most about dogs. They can sense danger and they can also sense when they are in good hands. Im a 35 year old stay at home mom (to a 2 year old daughter) that loves animals and wants your fur baby to be shown as much love as I would show my own. Hopefully I can help someone whose feeling the guilt of working long hours and not being able to walk or spend as much time as they would like with their pet. Ive been there before so I can definently relate. Sometimes things come up and it has happened to all of us. Hopefully I can help by being that piece of mind for you to know that your pet is not lonely and is in excellent care. My daughter goes to daycare during the week so im pretty flexible 7 days a week. Im ok with schedules but I also understand that things happen. Some situations are unplanned and last minute and that's ok with me as well. Communication is everything. I live in a community that loves dogs and im sure your fur baby will love visiting here. I am a homeowner and I have a big gated backyard as well as a park with a walking trail that I visit frequently on a weekly basis.

“This was my first time using this service for my fur baby and our first time out of town without him. I was worried in the beginning and requested for photos to help ease my mind. Mary was great! She took such great care of my puppy while I was out of town. She was caring, reliable, and pretty much kept me updated throughout the rest of his stay. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treated my pup like one of her own. I truly appreciate everything she did and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter. Thank you again!”
“Melinda was an excellent dog sitter. My dogs really enjoyed their stay at her house. She had a huge backyard that they enjoyed exploring. My older dog does not do well at boarding because he refuses to eat, but at Melinda’s house he ate his food. My husband and I appreciate the care that our dogs received and will be calling her again.”
“Chryschel was amazing with my pet Millie. Millie took a liking to her as soon as she saw her. Chryschel sent regular updates to me when we were away and was very accommodating when my flight got delayed and I changed the pickup day and time. Her homemade treats at the end of the stay for Millie were also very healthy and tasty. She is the best sitter I could have asked for. I would surely be leaving Millie with her in the future.”
“Shoshana is the absolute best! I have a senior dog that needs a little extra attention and she (and her great kids) has been willing to provide the amazing care for her. I can't recommend anyone higher to watch over furry companions. I will always use her as my sitter as long as my dog is still able to be left for a few days.”
