Personalized care for your dog or cat - Franklin
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Franklin
“Danielle was such a wonderful caregiver to our 2 dogs and gave us frequent updates on how they were doing. She sent videos of them playing and even took them around the area so they weren’t left alone long. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our furry children😊”
“Keely took great care of my dog. She sent me pictures and updates throughout my vacation which kept me at ease since this was my first time boarding. Looking forward to working with her in the future!”
“Margaret and Dermott kept our chocolate lab for us while we were away. They sent us pictures and daily updates on how he was doing. It was so reassuring to know he was in great hands! We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“10/10 Jamie was AMAZING from booking to pickup! She was gracious through our need to book last minute (which nobody enjoys having to rush to find a dog sitter, so this was greatly appreciated). She took time to ask questions and fill us in on their process of handling a guest dog in their home. Her home is beautiful (I said I wanted to take his place being boarded there lol), it looks like actual doggy heaven. She sent videos and pictures that made our hearts so happy while out of town, and we could visually see how great she treated our little guy (who can be difficult to say the least). They treated our dog as if he were a part of their family in a short period of time and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her! Oh and a bonus was after we picked our little guy up he behaved SO WELL, like way better than usual…..I think he was missing Jamie, her family, and her dog ❤️ You cannot go wrong with booking with her!”
“Jennifer was great with our dog Molly when we went away over the weekend! She kept us updated with pictures and messages and took her for lots of walks. Thanks for taking such good care of her!”
“Gina was great at taking great care of Mimi. She sent numerous updates and photos of Mimi during their daily activities. Gina was attentive to Mimi's needs. Our dog was well cared for. We would definitely have Gina dog sit our dog in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dog sitter.”

“Katherine was an amazing sitter! She made sure to send updates on how my cat was doing as well as pictures and she responded very quickly if I had any questions. Will definitely be rebooking !”
“Katie and her family were wonderful to my 6 year old Frenchie, Mickey. So much so that he didn't seem to want to leave! They showered him with love and attention, sent pictures and updates every day, and treated him like a member of the family. I would definitely book Katie again!”
“Holly was amazing for my pup Juniper’s first boarding experience! When she came back home she was so tuckered out from all the play, and slept almost the entire day & night! I would book with Holly a million times over!”
“Our boy absolutely LOVED staying with Madasin! He looked SO happy in all the pictures she sent & he might even be missing her now that he’s back home! Lol Highly recommend Madasin & we will definitely use her again next time we go out of town !!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Friends and family have relied on me many times to look after their pets. With time I can train small skills like sitting, laying down, and shaking. I am currently a full time student at Thiel College. Because of my class schedule I will only be available in the early morning, early afternoon, and evening. I have an unfenced back yard and two friendly dogs and lots of toys and treats. I also have two available medium size crates if needed

I have one very friendly 11 month old German shepherd mix who loves to play & is crate trained. I have the backyard & garage on camera, but I keep an eye on my dog regardless.

About: Pets are family, and they deserve to be treated like family. I have doggy sat for a family friend for 3yrs, Zoe, and Zarley. They go out 4 to 5 times a day, they get treats for going boo boo outside. We run around the apartment and play as much as my bones will let me. I am able to brush the furbabies every day, and multiple times a day if needed. I do talk to them like they can answer me…..😂😂. Animals understand more than we think they do. I love animals so much. I wish I could get one for me. But at this time, I am unable to afford one. I will not get any animal that I know I can’t pay for what they need. I was working up until 09/2025. I got hurt at work, and I’m unable to return. I am available 24/7 now. I have plenty of time to give ALL of my time to furbabies now. I have a full time job working midnights. I get off at 7am, but don’t usually go to sleep till around 10am. I do not work Friday nights. My part time job is just Mon., we’d., and Fri, from 9am to 1pm. I have every other weekend off. I always put fur babies first in my home. I play with them as often as I can. They are allowed on the furniture and bed. No matter what I am doing, I will stop to take them out, or play with them. I DO NOT give for babies ppl food, their little digestive system mite not be able to handle it. If there is something extra that you say they need, and you don’t have, I will buy it for them. I remove any and everything off the floors, so they cannot get in it. If there is a special diet that they have, I will just need written instructions on how to prepare it.
“Brook-lynn is great to Max. He's always so excited after a stop in visit with her. She communicates well and always sends me photos. I'd high recommend letting her take care of your fur baby!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Franklin
“What an amazing young lady! Positive, concerned, kind and gentle! Willing to go the extra mile for Murray and us! She listened to us, gave us suggestions…this was our first time leaving Murray with anyone! Keely provided pictures of Murray and asked great questions the entire time she had Mur! Keely agreed to a meet and greet before her time with Murray and it went superbly well. She got down on her knees and talked to Murray. She gave him time to adjust to her and on our designated day Mur walked right up to her and gave her a kiss! It was great! It did our hearts gud! Mur is a senior dog and we are thankful to have found Keely:) She is and will be our go to person from now on!”
About: I only accept pets who are house broken, crate trained and get along with other dogs and kids. I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, I grew up on a farm in East TN. I love all animals. Your pet would feel right at home, be loved and spoiled. I am a stay at home mom, I am free all day every day. I have a senior German Shepherd. I separate my senior dog while boarding. This is a smoke free home. I strive to have an environment that is stress free and helps your pet feel safe. I do not allow any family/visitors while watching your pet.
About: Hi, I’m Jamie, and I’m thrilled to bring my love for animals and my 18 years of experience as a Registered Nurse to the world of pet care. I know that your pets are more than just animals—they’re family. That’s why I offer personalized pet boarding and professional dog walking services tailored to meet the unique needs of each furry friend. I take a very limited number of animals at one time so that your Furry family member will become a member of our family while they’re here! As a lifelong animal lover, I understand the importance of trust and reliability when it comes to caring for your pets! Whether it’s a cozy staycation while you’re away or a fun-filled walk to keep them active, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. ** at this time I cannot accept intact male dogs** thank you for your understanding! I work part time, I am home the majority of most days so chances are I will have availability for you! I am flexible with days and times! Last minute plans? No problem! I have a large fenced in 1/2 acre partially wooded dog run. I have multiple sized crates and smaller fenced in areas as well with plenty of space for you pooch!
“GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!! We were in town working a vendor event at Cooper's Lake. I took my dogs to Gina for doggy day care while we were at the event. One of my dogs is a big, strong, hyper, crazy, high energy goofball that loves everyone and and wants to play nonstop. The other dog is the polar opposite. She's a rescue that came from some unknown traumatic past. She doesn't trust people easily and it takes her a while to warm up to you. Gina matches both their energy perfectly, and they love her! When they spotted her house they were so excited! Even my Paisley was so excited she was squealing! When you have a dog like that you worry about their happiness all the time because they're so emotionally fragile and it takes a LOT for you to leave them with someone unless your 100% sure they're ok. Gina is that type of dogsitter. During the day I got pictures of them on their adventures around her property, updates about their mood and silly pictures of them playing and eating their snacks. She spoiled them rotten! Every night I picked them up they were happy, happy, happy and exhausted! If you need someone to care for your pups I can't even begin to tell you how fantastic my experience was with Gina.”
About: I am a certified veterinary assistant with experience caring for animals in veterinary hospitals, shelters, and private pet-sitting settings. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including pets with mobility or dietary needs, and I have experience administering medications. My goal is to provide the same attentive, compassionate care I’d want for my own pets while keeping owners informed and giving them peace of mind while they’re away. I maintain a relatively flexible schedule while I continue my education in the veterinary field, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends whenever possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is maintaining a safe, low-stress environment while following their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special care requests to help your pet feel comfortable while you’re away. For pets staying in my home, I have a large backyard with plenty of room to play, as well as a long, fenced-in deck where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine under supervision. My home is also equipped with handicap ramps to better accommodate senior pets or those with mobility challenges. Indoor cats can enjoy plenty of natural sunlight from the many windows throughout my home, creating cozy spots to relax and watch the outdoors.
“My friend and my three pooches were well taken care of while we went out to breakfast and went to a musical. Katherine sent us photos, so we knew the kids were all right. Thank you for taking such good care of them.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Franklin
About: I have been a pet owner myself for years. I have years of experience pet sitting, typically dogs, for family, friends, and a few clients through Rover. I work a full time job during the week. Currently, I’m working 2nd shift (3:00 pm to 11:30 pm) and I get every other weekend off. I do work first shift on the weekend that I work (7 am to 3:30 pm). So, it might be a little tricky just depending on your animals schedules and individual needs! I’m willing to work around whatever I can but just want you to be you aware of that! I let the animals decide what to do and when. I accommodate them on their schedules, with respect to the owners requests. I like to keep them engaged whether that’s playing or “loving” time, if they’re up for either.
“Keely has looked after my dog before as a sitter, and I was so happy to have her take my pup for a walk recently. She’s always so kind, reliable, and clearly loves animals. My dog absolutely adores her and gets so excited every time she sees her! It’s such a comfort knowing that Keely already knows my dog, so I can trust that she’s in great hands. She always takes the time to give updates and really goes the extra mile. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Keely to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog walker or sitter!”
About: My mom runs a rescue, so I have taken care of countless animals while fostering them. I also have 7 cats and 5 dogs which brings a lot of experience. I am a college student athlete, so I am currently free most days of the week and weekends. Aside from doing my workouts, I love to get any extra exercise I can!! During the school year I will only be free during the weekends. I have large yard and path cut through my field for exercise. My dogs and cats are friendly to any other animal, but I am able to crate the pet if needed.
