“Jessica was phenomenal. From our meet and greet to pick up, everything was great. She was caring and took the best care of our Chocolate lab. We will definitely be seeing her again.”

“Our dogs have stayed with Viviana several times over the years. It doesn't matter how much time has passed, they are always so excited to see her. They get to play all day on her huge property and she really does treat them like her own. You couldn't ask for a better place for your dog.”

“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing! Beginning with a prompt response and a meet and greet, Elizabeth made me feel comfortable and at ease with my senior dogs staying with her. She communicated with us every day, and when one of my critters got sick, she was quick to alert me, coordinate a visit with the vet, and keep me to to date at every step. I can’t recommend her enough, and we will always look to Elizabeth in the future we we need a sitter!”

“Tami was wonderful with Inky (10 year old lab mix), and I did not worry for one second about him while I was away! This was the first time he and I were separated after I adopted him almost 2 years ago. From the minute I corresponded with Tami, I knew that Inky would be in great hands! He LOVED lying on her covered porch and being in the fenced yard. Tami is very knowledgeable and treated Inky like family! She sent me pictures everyday and let me know how he was doing. I could tell he was happy happy happy being with her! I am new to Maryville and feel blessed to have found Tami! I would highly recommend her! She is a true blessing!! Thank you Tami!!”

“Kim and her daughter took excellent care of our sweet cat named Alice. They visited her daily, rain or shine. Alice is very social and loves attention. They gave her plenty of petting, freshen her bowls of water, refilled dry food, gave wet food, and treats. They also scooped her litter box daily. Alice was happy to have their attention and she was very well cared for during our 4 night absence. I highly recommend Kim as a pet sitter.”

“Rachel was so helpful taking care of my sweet puppy even when he wasn’t feeling his greatest the day she had him! She gave regular updates and even offered son advice to help remedy his upset tummy! She is fantastic!”

About: Caring for animals has been a constant joy in my life since childhood, and I bring over 25 years of experience as both a pet owner and sitter. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with oral and injectable medications, and able to accommodate pets with special diets or unique needs. My experience includes caring for puppies who need training and patience, as well as senior pets who require extra gentleness and support. What sets me apart is the home and environment I provide— Our little farm offers space to explore, a secure fenced yard for safe play, and the love of my entire family. With three children who adore animals, every pet gets an abundance of cuddles, companionship, and supervision. I understand how hard it can be to leave your beloved pets, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. As a stay-at-home mom, I spend about 85% of my time at home. This allows me to give pets consistent love, attention, and supervision throughout the day. My three children, who are all animal lovers, also enjoy providing extra playtime and cuddles, making sure your pet always feels included and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on a 2-acres with a secure fenced-in yard for safe, off-leash play and exploration. Pets are never left alone for long periods and are treated like part of our family. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, experienced in administering medications, and happy to accommodate special diets or crate training if preferred. Our home is filled with love, supervision, and plenty of cozy spots for relaxation so your pet feels secure and happy.
“I feel blessed for having found Jane. My dog came back home so calm and chill, which shows she was loved and not scared. Jane also sent me lots of updates throughout the day. We will definitely go back! Thank you so much”

About: Hello! Thanks for checking in! I would be glad to help care for your furry family member 🐶❤️🐈. A little about me--I have had a love for animals since I was young, and I find that I have always felt most at home surrounded by our furry, four-footed family over the years. We have had animals all my life, and we have raised several breeds of dogs including Dalmatian, Cocker Spaniel, Blue and Red Heelers, Australian Shepherd, Border Collie, Boxer, Standard Poodles, Great Pyranees, and many more loveable mixed breeds. I have taken care of dogs and puppies since I was 5 years old. They were always like family to me, and I have many years of experience of their care and basic command training for puppies using positive reinforcement. I have experience caring for sick and senior dogs as well as every canine that has come into our family has found their forever home and lived out their fullest lives possible. If your pup needs some freshening up, a haircut, or a pedicure, I can help with that. I am a professional pet stylist and member of the NDGAA. I have continued education through NDGAA workshops and worked full-time at a pet salon for a few years while also grooming my own dogs, Standard Poodles, their whole lives (14 years.) I can bathe or groom your dog or trim their nails if needed. I currently work part-time, and I have quite a bit of extra time to care for your pups and kitties. Wednesdays and Sundays are our busiest days, so I will not be able to offer pickup on those days, but the other days are open. I have a fenced yard, and I will leash your dog on walks for extra care. They are free to be downstairs in my home with me and our family, and I will kennel for their safety when and if we leave the home for short errands. For pet care in their home, I can take on walks, let outside into fenced yard, feed, water, and bathe/groom the dogs or trim nails if needed. I also have trained several puppies basic commands using clicker-training and positive reinforcement.

“Reah and her husband are so great! They take wonderful care of my pup, Kida. Kida is always relaxed and happy when I come to get her. They have taken her for walks and they are forgiving of my work schedule. I’m so happy to find good people to take care of my pup! Thanks Reah!”

“I highly recommend Kristi for your babies needs. Being new to the area and having a new puppy is exciting and scary. Trusting someone with your baby is hard. She was so comforting to me and gave me regular updates. This was the first time I left Chandler with anyone. She has 2 dogs herself and Frankie is the same breed as Chandler. Dachshunds needs special care and she even had ramps to accommodate their backs. I will definitely use Kristi again.❤️💙🩷”

“We had a wonderful experience with Tabatha -- she was willing to watch our dog for the day on super short notice and was very accommodating for us. She has a fantastic yard that our dog loved playing in. Our 2 y/o Aussie came back to us tired out, which is not an easy feat -- he had such a great time. Highly recommended!”

“Michelle had a last minute emergency but she was very accommodating and still allowed us to drop our dog off and her husband looked after him. She was constantly sending me updated and photos that he was taking and Busch seemed like he had a great day!”


About: I have loads of experience! From fostering dogs to being a licensed vet tech of 10 years!!! I decided I wanted a different direction and starting my own business and pet sit on the side. I'm loving every second of it! I work from home so taking care of your baby will fit right into my schedule. I can do whatever is needed and more! Just ask! I prefer to care for animals in their homes where they are comfortable, but if they are good with other dogs/peope/ and cats they can come to mine. I have 6bdogs ranging from puppy to senior and 5 cats. They all get along well with other dogs and cats but if one was to join our pack they would have to do the same.

About: I have had a dog as a family pet for my entire life, and I've personally taken care of family friends' pets since I was a preteen as well, so you could say I know my way around the species pretty well and I know that great pet owners mean they are treated as a member of the family.

“Natalie is great. She’s walked and played with both our pups (a small lazy beagle tripod and a huge energetic German Shepherd) a few times. She’s reliable and takes good care of them. We’ll definitely use her in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all shapes, breeds and sizes! I’ve also taken care of a plethora of other animals. I’m comfortable bathing, dogs, and the occasional cat. I’m currently in school online and am raising a toddler alongside my husband and family on the same property. I also have 2 dogs, 2 horses and a bunch of other little critters I take care of daily. We don’t have a super set schedule, but things always get done. Although, if I’m given a schedule I will follow it to a T! I can do whatever you/your pet is comfortable with, apart from off leash walks, because I cannot be held responsible for a dog not recalling. But whether that be crating while leaving them, taking them outside in a fenced yard, or taking them on leashed walks varying in length, I am ready to car for your pet!
“Thomas was wonderful with our doggo! He sent plenty of updates, videos, and pictures. Our dog looked extremely happy! Thomas had great communication and was amazing all around. He helped us so much to avoid having to board our dog while on vacation. Our dog had an accident before one of Thomas visit and he was kind enough to clean it up and offer to run the carpet cleaner. Thomas is 10/10!”
