“Lorinda was so sweet and great with Flora. She sent plenty of pictures and her home seemed like a fun place with lots of space for the dogs to run around. If I'm back upstate for family stuff I'd love to have Flora stay with her again!”
“Never used this booking app before. However, Steve and Patty made the experience wonderful and easy. They provide updates on my pup, worked with me on my arrival times and held a very important meet & greet. You could feel safe leaving your dogs with them and leaving out of town. I will definitely use them again in the future”
“We loved that you loved Turbo as much as we do. Lots of pictures and updates each day. Greatly appreciated! We'll cared for and lots of playtime with the other dogs. They also told me about his scrap on his nose because he was nosing through the fence. Turbo is a very active dog that wants to be with humans anywhere he goes. He gets a little wild if he is not right next to you. Belly rubs and some loving is all he needs. Thank you! so much for taking such good care of Turbo!”
“Bee was a great sitter! She always responded right away when coordinating pickup and drop-off and I felt very comfortable leaving my 1-year old terrier with her. My pup had time playing with her dog in their yard and was completely relaxed and happy when I got him back. It was so helpful having someone I could trust for this last-minute overnight stay.”
“Charlene watched our dog Dale for 3 nights and he had a wonderful time. Charlene was so friendly and experienced. Dale takes 3 medications and that was no problem for her to administer. The dogs are welcome to sleep on the couches and beds and she really makes them feel at home!”
“We were so thankful that Kellyanne was available for us last minute, especially since our boy Odin had recently been dealing with a leg injury. She was so accommodating and made sure we were comfortable, as it was also our first time boarding him. Would definitely recommend Kellyanne!”
“Booked last minute and was very accommodating. I needed a day sitter for my 2 labs and received pictures/ updates thought the day. My dogs had a great day and were well cared for. Would definitely recommend and book again in the future.”

“We would highly recommend Gil. He was very attentive and caring, trying to be as knowledgeable about our dog's care and routine as possible. We received prompt updates as needed, and pictures showing our fur girl having a stress free visit. She seemed very comfortable being in his household and care.”
“Nicole was a lifesaver! After getting over booked at a kennel during Cooperstown Baseball season, she came to my rescue. Great communication, flexible, easy to work with, updated me with pictures and she even trimmed my puppy nails. Highly recommend her.”
“Coop had just a fun time! As happy as I was to have him come home, I know he was sad to leave his new friends! It was so cute to see Justin's little girl with his leash walking him!!! Besties for life!! Would recommend Justin and his family to anyone!”
“Dana took great care of Loki on our long trip away! He got a little stomach upset (typical for him with routine/environment changes) and she was very attentive, communicative, and helped get him back on track. Everything was really smooth, and Loki always comes back happy & calm :)”
About: I have been around animals my entire life and have cared for my own pets since I was young. Over the years, I have owned and cared for many different types of animals, including Pit Bulls, Yorkshire Terriers, German Shepherds, Bulldogs, Shar-Peis, mixed-breed dogs, cats and kittens, turtles, rabbits, and chickens. Through this experience, I have learned how to understand different temperaments, provide daily care, maintain feeding schedules, exercise pets, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I am patient, responsible, and genuinely love animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am committed to treating them with the same care and attention that I give my own pets. I currently have a very flexible schedule because I am on summer break from university. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and I can often accommodate different schedules, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I understand the importance of consistency in a pet's routine and will do my best to meet their specific needs. I live in a pet-friendly home with no other pets, which allows me to provide focused attention and a calm environment. My home has a living area, kitchen, bathroom, and multiple rooms, giving pets space to relax and feel comfortable. While there is not a fenced yard, there is plenty of outdoor space nearby for leashed walks, and a park is located close to my home for additional exercise and enrichment. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety, follow the owner's instructions carefully, maintain regular feeding and potty schedules, and make sure pets always feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Sheila was amazing! She took great care of my puppy while we were out of town for a week. She had excellent communication, prompt responses and sent daily photos and videos. I loved that our puppy looked like she had a blast! I will definitely be reaching out to Sheila again the next time we go out of town.”

I’m that girl that gets distracted more by dogs than anything else. Your dog is a priority to me. I make sure to walk and keep your pup happy, healthy and well fed. Definitely a few treats on the side. I love taking care of animals and being around them. Dogs and animals alike are like family to me. They deserve all the love in the world. There is plenty of time for me to get out and about with your faithful companion. I will be able to give them long walks and plenty of time to play. In your home, I can play with your dog with their toys and if you have a yard, we can play fetch and lay out in the sun. Here at my home, you can be assured that I will love them just the same, if not more and keep them on their schedules.
About: I've had dogs my entire life, but really started taking a lot of responsibility for their care around 12. From small breeds to large, I've loved them all! I have experience with behavioral issues, medication administration, seizures, and other medical issues. I'm a stay at home mom of two beautiful disabled children. We have one cat and one dog. I'm always home and available during the day for boarding. We have nice, big yards and we live in a very friendly neighborhood! I'd also love to help take care of your babes on the weekends, evenings, and occasionally during the week! I have an unfenced but spacious yard. Our home has the capacity to keep everyone separated if needed, but lots of room to be together, too! We have plenty of room for a crate, if that's how your sweet babe thrives, but we also support snuggles during sleep, too!

“Sammi was absolutely incredible with my cats. She went above and beyond for them — she kept me updated every step of the way and did everything she could to ensure my cats were comfortable. She truly cares about their needs; of course this is a job, but I could tell she put effort and love into watching my babies. I’d recommend her to anybody!!!”
About: I have watched tons of dogs and stayed at peoples houses for months at a time. I have taken care of puppies, senior, sick, and everything in between.

I will continue to dog sit until I land my post grad job! I make your dogs feel comfortable with me and follow the most similar patterns as you would if you were there looking after them. I treat your dogs with the upmost care and love. I often treat them with a special pup cup every time I watch them!!! I’ll also make sure to send you tons of pictures.
“I can't say enough good things about Johnna. This was my first time having Johnna pet sit for my dog and three casts. She sent me several pictures of the pets and wrote informative reviews of how they were doing. Johnna walked Flossy, my dog each day. She was meticulous in terms of picking up after the animals. When I returned I found the house in order. Johnna is pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her.”
“Tia was absolutely amazing, our girl was well taken care of, and she provided pictures and updates. It’s a relief when you find someone who takes away the stress of being away from your pets. Tia definitely put us at ease. We will be using her for all our future vacations 👀”
“Gil's calm and thoughtful demeanor immediately inspired trust. His care of my cat was flawless. I will request Gil next time I am away. I recommend Gil without reservation.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and helped train them when they were puppies. I have 1 dog and a cat right now, and love playing with, walking them, and cuddling. I worked at a doggy daycare for 2 years and as a pet groomer for under 1 year, and I also earned my Dog Training Certification through Animal Behavior College. I adore pets and always have, and I strive to make any pets day the best with whatever they need! I currently go to school and work part-time. Working part time allows me to have more time to play with your dogs. I am able to spend time with your pups on Mondays and Wednesdays anytime 12pm or after. Along with Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays at any time! The first thing I will always do with your pups is let them get to know me by letting them set the course of our greeting, if they are shy we go slower. Whatever the dog needs is my number one priority along with keeping the Pet Parent informed. I will always be attentive when watching your pup in your home, and if there is medication that needs to be administered I can do so properly with the exception of needles/shots.
About: I have 3 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs of a variety of breeds, and have worked with puppies as well as older pets in home environments such as suburbs, cities, and rural areas. I am happy to cater to your pet's special needs, and I focus on respecting each pet's boundaries and getting to know them on a case by case basis, with the hope that they grow to trust me as much as they trust you! Since I am a writer who works remotely, I am open on a weekly basis and am able to be flexible in order to meet your scheduling requirements. I work hard to ensure that your pet's personal boundaries are not crossed while we take time to get to know each other. I especially care about learning their preferences in order to earn their favor and eventually their trust. Depending on each pet, I try to be very sensitive to any shifts in their mood or behavior, such as if they get anxiety when left alone or are afraid of loud weather.
“From the photos she sent it looks like or cat was well loved white we were gone. Emily was communicated quickly and was able to accommodate our situation. Would absolutely recommend her to others.”

“This was my dog's first time with a Rover sitter. Lorinda did her best to get him settled. She understood he was not wanting to be social. She got her chair and stayed by him while he was in her fenced area. Couldn't ask for more.”
“I can’t thank Gil enough for the attentiveness, caring, and love he showed to my 15 yr old dachshund! Gil took the time to listen to my wife and me when we described to him our pup’s tendencies and hinderances. We felt confident as we pulled out of the driveway that our old guy was in great hands! Gil made sure to send us photos of our pup throughout the day, as well as updates on its evacuations (very important for an older dog). Overall, I can say unequivocally that Gil was a perfect sitter for our elderly pup, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter in that area! Kudos, Gil!”
“Kathryn was great. This was the first time leaving our pittie with a stranger, and we were very pleased with the way everything was handled. Kathryn met our expectations, and we look forward to working with her in the near future.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Mia and providing the update and pictures. I truly appreciate it! I loved the pictures you sent and shared them with my family. She slept well last night after having so much fun at your home. Thanks again!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from cats & dogs to fluffy chinchillas! I have special experience working with powerful breeds, including retired and aspiring K9s, as well as senior & special needs pets. My home comes equipped with accessiblity tools like pet stairs & ramps suitable for even larger dogs. Our quarter acre is unfenced, but we do have a small enclosed area off the porch & several long leads to enjoy more of the grassy lawn. Safety is paramount. I’m comfortable giving medication, following specialized diets, & assisting with mobility issues. I’m an experienced pet parent who just said goodbye to my 17 year old rescue pitbull; I’d like to open my now-too-quiet home to your beloved family members. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ friendly ❤️ I’m a professional writer who works exclusively from home. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to any specific needs, take all the potty breaks, and ensure both enriching play & restorative snuggles. And treats, of course! I have a fenced potty area off my porch for easy quick breaks, and several long leads for exploring the unfenced portions of the property. My senior dog recently passed away but she left soft beds in every room, jars of treats, and a big basket of toys I know she’d love to share.
“Kevin did a great job with my playful, big, high energy pup! He had great communication setting up the booking and pickup times. When I picked up my dog, I could tell that she was happy and tired. Very happy with the experience!”

About: I have had pets most of my life. I quit my job and started a non-profit, St. Lewis Foundation, which didnt work out, so all the animals in my care became my pets. They were mostly senior and unwanted animals, which is where my heart is. I am unemployed right now, looking for remote work . So I am home all day. I have the time to let your pup out as many times as he/she wants. If they are a little dog I will be right by their side. I am up 6a - 9p. I have 3 senior cats that sleep up high most of the day, so your pup needs to be okay with cats. All pups sleep with me in my king size bed (if they want to). I have a dog bed next to me in my office or a couch in front of a large front window. I have locked screen security doors in case your pup likes to sniff the air. Central AC (I like it cool) and heating. I have many balls and treats (if allowed) and would love to throw the ball a bit. Back yard is not huge but sufficient. All my dogs have passed and I am missing a dog so much but cant commit right now. So let me love on your pup!
“Thank you Justin & Melissa for taking good care of Nick for me . I will definitely use your services in the near future. Thank you for being so accommodating for us . You’re the best . Thanks again Mike”

About: Hi! My name is Brooklin, and animals have been a huge part of my life for over 18 years. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I previously worked with the Charleston Animal Society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs. My background has given me the skills to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care for your pets while you're away. I am comfortable administering medications when needed and have experience monitoring pets' health, feeding schedules, water intake, bathroom habits, and overall well-being. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I strive to make them feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My goal is to treat every animal as if they were my own and provide pet parents with peace of mind through dependable care and communication. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! At the moment I have a full time job, but have weekends off. I plan to entail doing this on my weekends and even after work days. This is more then just making it my routine. I adore animal(s). I have a fenced in yard, I as well have a crate. Plenty of opportunities for walking adventures. I enjoy going to the dog park, as well with adventuring outside anywhere with the animal(s). Whatever you set for rules or boundaries I’ll always continue to respect them, and always follow. I enjoy working with animal(s)
About: I’ve taken care of lots of pets over the years. I enjoy being around animals and showing them love because they do the same for us! I have a genuine love for taking care of things if I can help it and I’m going to school to even become a nurse. I also started a house plant hobby. Taking care of things is just in my blood. I’m available more in the evenings . My schedule is flexible but inconsistent because I’m part time at my jobs but we can discuss availability if you book me to take care of your pet(s)! I have a fenced in back yard and just one cat. I’m able to keep them separated if needed. I also have my own home and it’s a smoke free one! I’m very clean and clean my home daily. I let my cat on the couches so yours will be allowed the same if they are not dirty of course.
About: By hiring an experienced and professional pet sitter, your pet will be able to suffer much less stress by staying in their own home and sleeping in their own bed. Additionally, there will be no exposure to dangerous illness from other animals, and I will provide the extra TLC they'll need while you're away. You can trust me, and feel confident your pet is in capable, caring hands while you're away from home. I offer "Meet & Greet" interviews for first time clients (within 15 miles from Middleton, TN), because I want you to feel comfortable with the whole process, and with me. My goal is to give you the peace of mind you'll need when you are away, and to make your return convenient, easy, and hassle-free. (Meet & Greets over 15 miles away from Middleton will incur a $1/mile travel fee for each mile over the first 15.) My rates are very reasonable. Rather than charging by the hour, I charge by the day, which makes it much more affordable for my clients. I can provide references of past customers upon request. I am also available to watch your pet in my home (my dogs are very socialized with both dogs and cats), but I have found that it's more convenient for me, and far less stressful for your pet if they're allowed to stay in the comfort of their own home. Depending on your distance from me, I can visit your pets 2 - 3 times each day, for 30 - 45 minute intervals, or I can stay at your home for as long as you'd like me to, including overnights, if that's what you prefer. I am very flexible and will work with you to set up a schedule and system that works best for you and your pet. You can also rest easy knowing that I am insured while in your home. I have experience administering medications for both cats and dogs. I will also walk them, play with them (of course!), snuggle and love them like my own, and do whatever other activities you'd like me to do. I have taken care of as many as 5 dogs at one time for a week or more, so no pet sitting job is too difficult for me, because when you love animals like I do, it never seems like work! :) Please contact me today to discuss your needs so I may provide you with a quote, and thank you for considering me for the care of your precious pets! ~ Lolly Winne LollyPup Pet Sitting F.A.Q. 1. How many visits are there per day? The number of visits is determined by you, the pet owner. Normally, cats require only one or two visits per day, unless medications need to be given. Dogs usually have two to three visits per day at morning, midday and evening, but the number of visits and time of visits are at the client's discretion. 2. How long are the visits? The length of each visit depends on the client's needs. The average visit lasts 30-45 minutes, but longer visits may be requested and the price would be adjusted accordingly. 3. Will you provide services other than animal care? I can also bring in the mail, open/close blinds as needed, take out the trash, clean litter boxes as needed, turn lights on or off, etc. to provide your house the security it needs while you're away. 4. What will happen if my pet becomes ill while I am away? You will sign a vet release form at the time of the first visit. If you're pet becomes ill while you are away, I will contact you first, unless I deem it to be an emergency. In the case of an emergency, I will take your pet to the vet you indicated on the vet release form. If their office is closed, I will take your pet to the emergency vet clinic. 5. Will you spend the night? I am available to do overnight stays on most occasions. This type of visit usually requires more advance notice so that I can mark those dates on my calendar. 6.

Thank you for your assistance, my clients and their pets appreciate your thoughtfulness. THANK YOU! :) About this sitter: Anyone who knows me would say I'm a HUGE animal lover. I have a special place in my heart for dogs. If I pass by someone walking their dog, I've been known to turn around, go back, and ask the owner if I can pet them. Yes, this typically results in the weirdest expressions, but hey, their dogs totally love me! LOL A little about me... I'm 50 years young and live in Middleton, TN with my wonderful husband and our 3 small sweet fur babies (2 shih tzus and a bichon/poodle mix). I have 2 grown children and an 8 year old Pit Bull named Jax who lives with them in Murfreesboro, TN. I'm originally from upstate NY (born & raised 4 hours north of NYC, in cow country!) but moved to the south to be with the love of my life. :) I worked in a kennel years ago, so I've handled virtually every type of dog there is, and there was never a time when my family didn't have a dog or two in the house growing up. I've been jokingly called "The Dog Whisperer", as I'm known for befriending dogs that are normally unapproachable. The bottom line? I LOVE DOGS! Honestly? I think I must've been a dog in a past life... LOL ;) I will happily watch your pet in my home, however I much prefer to travel to your home to take care of them, where they are happiest and the least stressed. I'm willing to travel anywhere, as long as my travel expenses are covered. Please contact me today for a quote. :) I have been pet sitting for about 15 years now. Please read the testimonials provided by several of my past clients. :) About my yard: I have a large, fenced in back yard where the dogs can run free and get plenty of exercise. There's plenty of room for multiple dogs. My experience administering medication: I've done this countless times. This has never been an issue for me. I don't work a regular job because I have my own businesses. This allows me the luxury of making my own schedule and working from home, so I am able to stop whatever I'm working on an any given time to take care of any animals that are in my care. It's truly the perfect side job for me. At my home, I have 2 fenced areas that I can use for when your dog(s) need to go out, otherwise they'll be inside with me getting lots of love. They would never be let out unsupervised as I'd never want to take a chance of them escaping. (My goats are known for this so they've made me paranoid. Lol) Oh, and by the way, I have Valais Blacknose sheep (a.k.a. the "world's cutest sheep!") and Nigerian Dwarf goats who all stay in their own fenced pasture together. I also have two very sweet LGDs who are wonderful with other dogs, but stay in the pasture and lean-to (attached to my house) with them at all times to protect the animals and property from coyotes. And they do their job extremely well! At your home, I will follow whatever instructions you provide for the care of your fur babies, and I'll send you text updates everyday, including pictures and video.

“Lorinda was so sweet and great with Flora. She sent plenty of pictures and her home seemed like a fun place with lots of space for the dogs to run around. If I'm back upstate for family stuff I'd love to have Flora stay with her again!”
“Never used this booking app before. However, Steve and Patty made the experience wonderful and easy. They provide updates on my pup, worked with me on my arrival times and held a very important meet & greet. You could feel safe leaving your dogs with them and leaving out of town. I will definitely use them again in the future”
“We loved that you loved Turbo as much as we do. Lots of pictures and updates each day. Greatly appreciated! We'll cared for and lots of playtime with the other dogs. They also told me about his scrap on his nose because he was nosing through the fence. Turbo is a very active dog that wants to be with humans anywhere he goes. He gets a little wild if he is not right next to you. Belly rubs and some loving is all he needs. Thank you! so much for taking such good care of Turbo!”
“Bee was a great sitter! She always responded right away when coordinating pickup and drop-off and I felt very comfortable leaving my 1-year old terrier with her. My pup had time playing with her dog in their yard and was completely relaxed and happy when I got him back. It was so helpful having someone I could trust for this last-minute overnight stay.”
“Booked last minute and was very accommodating. I needed a day sitter for my 2 labs and received pictures/ updates thought the day. My dogs had a great day and were well cared for. Would definitely recommend and book again in the future.”

“We would highly recommend Gil. He was very attentive and caring, trying to be as knowledgeable about our dog's care and routine as possible. We received prompt updates as needed, and pictures showing our fur girl having a stress free visit. She seemed very comfortable being in his household and care.”
“Nicole was a lifesaver! After getting over booked at a kennel during Cooperstown Baseball season, she came to my rescue. Great communication, flexible, easy to work with, updated me with pictures and she even trimmed my puppy nails. Highly recommend her.”
“Coop had just a fun time! As happy as I was to have him come home, I know he was sad to leave his new friends! It was so cute to see Justin's little girl with his leash walking him!!! Besties for life!! Would recommend Justin and his family to anyone!”
“Dana took great care of Loki on our long trip away! He got a little stomach upset (typical for him with routine/environment changes) and she was very attentive, communicative, and helped get him back on track. Everything was really smooth, and Loki always comes back happy & calm :)”
About: I have been around animals my entire life and have cared for my own pets since I was young. Over the years, I have owned and cared for many different types of animals, including Pit Bulls, Yorkshire Terriers, German Shepherds, Bulldogs, Shar-Peis, mixed-breed dogs, cats and kittens, turtles, rabbits, and chickens. Through this experience, I have learned how to understand different temperaments, provide daily care, maintain feeding schedules, exercise pets, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I am patient, responsible, and genuinely love animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am committed to treating them with the same care and attention that I give my own pets. I currently have a very flexible schedule because I am on summer break from university. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, and I can often accommodate different schedules, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I understand the importance of consistency in a pet's routine and will do my best to meet their specific needs. I live in a pet-friendly home with no other pets, which allows me to provide focused attention and a calm environment. My home has a living area, kitchen, bathroom, and multiple rooms, giving pets space to relax and feel comfortable. While there is not a fenced yard, there is plenty of outdoor space nearby for leashed walks, and a park is located close to my home for additional exercise and enrichment. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety, follow the owner's instructions carefully, maintain regular feeding and potty schedules, and make sure pets always feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Sheila was amazing! She took great care of my puppy while we were out of town for a week. She had excellent communication, prompt responses and sent daily photos and videos. I loved that our puppy looked like she had a blast! I will definitely be reaching out to Sheila again the next time we go out of town.”

About: I’m a huge animal lover. When I was little, I had a few dogs growing up and was surrounded by my family’s pets as well. I give all animals love and affection. I’m that girl that gets distracted more by dogs than anything else. Your dog is a priority to me. I make sure to walk and keep your pup happy, healthy and well fed. Definitely a few treats on the side. I love taking care of animals and being around them. Dogs and animals alike are like family to me. They deserve all the love in the world. There is plenty of time for me to get out and about with your faithful companion. I will be able to give them long walks and plenty of time to play. In your home, I can play with your dog with their toys and if you have a yard, we can play fetch and lay out in the sun. Here at my home, you can be assured that I will love them just the same, if not more and keep them on their schedules.
About: I am just starting to my fourth career, playing with your companion. I recently retired from teaching sustainable development at UAlbany. I now spend my days outside with hairy friend Herman. I picked up my first stray, Bandit, at 9. I have had a at least one dog since then, I am now 63. All from shelters or strays. I also did doggie foster care too. Known to be gentle and friend of the furry ones. I start each day with a morning meander across the 25 acres on a dead end road. Your companion will be well exercised, loved and cared for as long as they get along with my 14 year old hairy friend Herman, who lets cats eat from his dishes. He runs the place when it comes to house rules. He does not have viscous bone in his body. After three careers and global travel I am recently retired. My days are spent gardening, walking, sitting on the porch, listening to music, etc. I am rarely gone more than a few hours as Herman, my four legged friend, needs special care at 14 years old. I am typically up before dawn, no dog or alarm necessary. My day typically begins with me waking predawn and greeting the new day with my hound Herman on the 25 acres we cohabitate. Most is abandoned agriculture returning to forest for 35 plus years that is bisected by a small babbling brook. Breakfast is then served before returning outside. In climate weather I am outside more than 70% of my day outside. At 14 he chooses to stay in sometimes. Your companion will be free to make their own choice too. My life ambition is to nurture life. I have cared for pets since I was born as my family had cats. There is a fenced area that includes four shaded area. There will be plenty of water, including a baby pool for play as well as sprinklers. This area is shares two fences lines with my garden, has direct access to a walk out basement, and is fully visible from my porch. The dogs will have near 24/7 personal attention and care. I live sustainably. There are no chemicals in my lawn or garden. I have an enclosed porch that in the summer is open air, but no steps to escape. Only with your permission would I walk a guest off leash. Before walking them off leash I will need feel 100% confident they respond to command when other distractions are present. Again with your permission I would take your friend to a fenced in dog park visit as a trial run. Herman, my housemate, is a happy healthy 14 year old he is my best reference. He also has final word on all guest of all species. About an 1/2 acre is fenced with direct access from the house through the basement door. It includes shaded doggie lounges, a baby pool in the summer, toys galore, and lots of attention as the space is adjacent to my garden and the covered porch. It has the capacity to be divided if unruly dog needs to be isolated or there are little ones that just need time away from the bigger ones. Indoors, dogs are free to roam in the basement and first floor. If they are cage trained I can accommodate that. The two beds are off limits. To prevent misunderstanding with bed loving dogs I will keep my guest room. Both the porch and the living room couches are fine. Little ones may use chairs too. The house is really set up for Herman’s comfort and safety. The 32x10 covered front porch is a favorite of Herman and all his visiting friends. Your hairy friend will be delighted by this feature too. One more thing, the hardwood floors are currently covered in rubber “yoga mats” as Herman can not cope with slippery floors. There are also many large dog beds that Herman is happy to share. Opps, where are our manners; welcome to our slice of Paradise!😊
About: I am an animal care enthusiast dedicated to assisting you with various pet services, including training, boarding, feeding, walking, daycare, and grooming options. I have owned my own grooming business for two years, and I officially launched it to the public on January 1, 2025. I am energetic and enjoy visiting dog parks and going on walks with pets. In addition to dogs, I also care for and groom cats, and I am open to working with exotic pets as well. I have experience working in a veterinary office, which complements my grooming business. Currently, I am studying to become a veterinary technician and have been caring for and training animals since I was 13 years old. I have successfully trained my own pets to be obedient and have also helped train other pets. Please let me know how I can assist you! I provide grooming services and can adjust my schedule. Please let me know a day and time that works for you and we can work it out! I provide a stress-free environment that rewards good behavior during boarding. I do not allow pets to stay in their crates for long periods. Instead, we spend time outside playing and engaging in daily training exercises with each pet. Each animal is treated like they’re at home, with the option to have their own food and treats, as well as those I provide. Pets are allowed on the couch and can roam freely throughout the house. We do have a designated space for one of my pets due to her tendency to cause destruction if not monitored, but this decision is ultimately based on the needs of each individual pet.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid, having many pets growing up. I have volunteered in the animal care center at Greenburgh nature center where I got to care for a variety of reptiles and mammals. I have dog sat many family friends dogs, and also walked dogs for families I've babysat. Most recently, I worked at the Hudson Valley Humane Society Shelter where I mostly worked with farm animals and dogs, and is where I met and adopted my sweet boy named Suka. I currently am working in Ithaca 6:30-3:00pm and have the afternoons available I would be able to work in the Ithaca area or surrounding all the way to Truxton (where I currently live). Come this September I will have Wednesdays and Weekends completely available. I live on 5 acres, with plenty of room to play. I will always keep your pet on a leash or make sure there surrounding area is gated in so no one escapes. Having a husky, I am well versed on being prepared for escape artists.
