“If you are looking for someone to watch your furbaby and give them all the care and love you would, choose Christy!! My husband and I have a one year old mini aussie shepard (Zelda) with moderate separation anxiety. We went on our first trip without her and this was also our first time having someone that wasn't family watch Zelda. We were so nervous to be leaving her with someone we didn't know, but after the meet and greet we knew right away Christy was going to take excellent care of her. She sent us updates throughout our trip with pictures and we never once worried about Zelda's safety. This whole experience has been incredible and I would give 10 stars if I could! Zelda absolutely loves her and we will choose Christy from now on ❤”


“Bailie took great care of our kitten, Shortbread! She sent us great picture updates everyday, and he seemed well taken care of when we picked him up. Thanks Bailie!”

“Victoria and Michael provided loving care to my sweet Kili on her first visit ever to their home while I was travelling. Every day, Victoria sent me pictures and brief videos, with quick text updates, to reassure me that Kili was safe, was having fun, and was making friends. I fully intend to use them again in the future when I need a dependable, loving sitter for my sweet girl. Big thanks to them for making Kili's first ever kennel experience a positive one!”

I will be recommending and using Christopher for the future boardings I intend to book!”

“Lavar and Amber do the absolute best job with our poodle, Zoey. She always comes back happy and tired from all the activity she gets. We love using them for our dog sitting needs!”

“Kortney was amazing. She tooksuch great care of my handsome boy over the few days he stayed with her that he was sad to leave her. I'm absolutely going to plan play dates with her and definitely rebook. I received pictures, video, and updates about him. I was very happy with her and her service.”

“Jamie took great care of our dog Rocky this week. She was kind enough to offer a meet and greet, and then was flexible to change the date when the weather wasn’t cooperating. Jamie sent daily updates with photos. Rocky enjoyed playing with Jamie’s dogs and her other boarding pups. She seemed to feel at home with Jamie and her family. We will definitely rebook with Jamie in the future.”

“Brian and Tara were fantastic! They were incredibly responsive to messages and flexible to accommodate our travel details and a meet & greet. They have an excellent set-up, and our dog was in great hands. We particularly appreciated the frequent updates, pictures, and videos! We will definitely use them again!”

“Repeat pet sitter. Awesome again. Sent pictures multiple times. I knew how well taken minkie was. And there was a window for her to watch birds. She went above and beyond: cutting the cat nails, which minkie never let's me do and getting. Will Continue to pick Robin as a pet sitter, she is the best.”

“I’m so grateful for the amazing care my dogs received from Lisa! They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. Lisa made sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention — even making sure they got a quick walk after the rain. Communication was smooth throughout, and I felt totally at ease while I was away. I’d absolutely trust her again for future stays. Highly recommend!”

About: I have always been an animal lover and have grown up with dogs in my home. Neighbors, family and teachers/professors have relied on me to walk, feed and tire out their pets when they are out of town or gone for long periods of time.

I'm available after 3:30 Monday through Friday and anytime on Saturday and Sundays. Can also be available for lunch breaks on Monday, Thursday and Friday if needed. Depending on what the dog owners are comfortable with and if the space permits, I love to play in fenced in backyards to tire out fur babies (fetch, tug of war, chase, etc). I also love a good walk with lots of sniff and potty breaks!

We understand that pets are family, and our goal is to provide dependable, loving care while you’re away. As lifelong pet owners, we’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals over the years. Madison also participated in FFA and 4-H for three years, gaining hands-on experience with animal care and responsibility.

About: I have been volunteering at a dog shelter for the past 4 years and it has been wonderful, I got to indulge myself in the love and care for dogs, cats and other animals and i got to understand the love and attention they need. It made me realize how amazing animals are to us. I also eventually dog sit for multiple people, and dog walk around my neighborhood. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 5-5:30. As I am in school and im on the bowling team for school. I have two precious Cavapoo and they are super playful and they love company, if there is another dog at my house I typically take them out on a leash just for safety purposes. If there is anything else people would like me to do i would be understanding. Kennel, puppy pee pad, etc.
“Ariana was great with my pup! She was flexible and accommodating, which I so appreciate. My pup came back tired and happy from daycare with Ariana and her pups, so I know she had a good time! Would totally recommend her to watch your kiddos!”


“Luigi had tons of fun at daycare today, thanks Ashley! Loved seeing all the pictures taken throughout his day and happy to hear he did well on his leash/walks too :)”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and could not imagine life without them! Pets deserve all of the attention and love even when you’re gone. I understand the stress of having to leave your pup and can assure you they’ll be in great hands! We’ll go on walks, play throughout the day and snuggle at night. I work from home full time. I am here to hang with them and keep them busy while you are gone. I take my own pup on daily walks and Riley loves to have a friend around. I have lots of grass around my apartment and a big dog park for them to play. I also love going on walks with them and being active if that’s what they like!
About: I have extensive experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, breeds, types, colors, and temperaments. I have owned dogs, cats, turtles, frogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and a lizard. (I once had a pet worm in an animal cracker box. I thought he would like living in a little zoo.) For 7 years I took care of my disabled mom as well as 5 dogs and 2 cats. During that time, I also worked as a foster volunteer for Music City Pug Rescue–most of which were geriatric surrenders whose owners had passed away or moved into a nursing facility. While I questioned my own sanity at the time, looking back now, those were some of the very best days of my life! Today I only have one dog, Marley, (my lucky charm rescue–a Tibetan Terrier who was just hours away from euthanasia when I saw his picture online) and I am renting my home. So while I can't board your pets, I am happy to take care of them at their own home! Sadly I have lost pets to terrible chronic illnesses like cancer and diabetes. I've been through two torn ACL surgeries, one hip surgery, blindness, deafness, and incontinence. My current pup, little Marley, has been paralyzed twice. The first time, I was able to afford an expensive back surgery. But when it happened again six months post-op, I rehabilitated him myself. Now, 6 years later, he's still walking! I thank God every morning and night for giving me another day with him. My experience caring for all of these dogs and their health problems means that I know how to care for their special needs. Whether it's taking a dog to weekly chemo treatments or giving him two shots of insulin each day, I am capable of caring for your pets and promise to do so just like they are my own. Whether it's for a few minutes, a few days, or even a few weeks, I would love to spoil your pet(s) with lots of hugs,and kisses. Not to mention walks, toys, fur brushings, head massages, playtimes, and treats–at your request, of course! Plu$, I am always willing to work with you on rates, so don't hesitate to make an offer. No matter the price, I promise to give you the best service possible. ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ I can design and 🧧 💰I can create a special GIFT CERTIFICATE for any of my services (final booking will be based on availability) I work from home and am free to pet sit, walk, feed, and take them on potty breaks throughout the day. While I only have availability to sit 41 dog at my home during the day, I am enabled to stay at your home for half an hour....or 24 -- or even a couple of weeks if that's what you need! (While I have extended stay rates listed, I am open to discussing long-term or permanent services, too. Just ask!) I do have a small dog and I take him with me everywhere. So if you do need someone for overnight services at your home, I will be bringing him with me. I will treat your canine and/or feline fur babies (or scaly ones!) just like they're my own. Likewise, I will care for your home with respect and with the utmost confidentiality. I can be as discreet as you need me to be, or I can take your pets to visit their friends if that's what you want me to do. For at-home pet sitting, I will meet with you and your pets beforehand to give you peace of mind. We can get as detailed as you want. Whether you give me a typed document outlining their care plan, or just hand me a key and tell me when to stop by, I am happy to accommodate you either way!

About: Hi, my name is Hannah! I am 30 years old and currently a full time mama to one, and dog mama of 2! We have a goldendoodle, and a Great Pyrenees.I've been around many dogs(all breeds) and I've cared for them as well. I believe in caring for pets just like they are my own. I love spending time with them,playing, and just giving them the unconditional TLC(tender loving care) that every animal deserves. I've had experience with giving dogs medication on a time schedule, walking and running, overnight stays, keeping shoes on pets where they did not scratch the owners floors,and mostly making sure pets are safe at all times and that they have plenty of food and water available. I consider myself to be a reliable and trustworthy person who takes pride in her work. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a stay-at-home parent. Since I’m already on a consistent schedule with my toddler—feeding times, outdoor walks, and playtime—it’s easy to integrate caring for pets. If I’m caring for a pet in a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d want for my own home. I follow the client’s instructions to the letter—whether that’s feeding, playtime, cleaning litter boxes, or administering meds. I send updates and photos so they feel confident their pet is in good hands. Cleanliness and reliability are very important to me, especially when entering someone else’s space.

I also have experience with puppies and with senior/special needs animal care. I have pets of my own and always love taking them on walks and would love to be able to do that for other peoples pets as well. I have a very open schedule as long as I know in advance. I am free most days and have very open availability through the day. I always try and learn what the pet(s) are used to and attempt to emulate that. Pets can be protective in their home so I always try and make them as comfortable as possible.

“Alesha is my pups other mother. Sake is almost 17, so she needs extra reassurance that she is safe since her eyesight is fading. Alesha walks my dog regularly, but also stepped in as mom for two months last year when I was on a place every 4 days. Her love and compassion is why she is my go to person to take care of my best friend. Knowing that you have someone to love your pet as much as you do is important.

About: Hi, I'm Marissa! I'm one of those people who, before I came out of my shell, spent more time with animals than people. Sometimes I still do. I've had dogs and cats all my life, and also rode horses starting just before I was 4. I have 9 years of experience on Rover and another 2 independently dog walking and sitting before that. I’ve cared for many kinds of dogs and cats, fish, turtles, donkeys, a family of racoons, and more. And I have a lot of experience caring for older animals and animals with medical conditions. I also used to volunteer with my mom transporting rescue dogs with Echo Dog White German Shepherd rescue. I am a homebody for the most part, so once I'm there I'm probably not going anywhere. My capital W Work is writing - I'm 13 years into an elven magic realism epic screenplay/novel series, it is my passion project and pet/housesitting gives me the time to tend to that vision, and fur babies to keep me company! Walking and playing with them keeps me active and in my beloved nature. It is a great joy to give people peace of mind while they travel, knowing their home and furbabies are in good hands. I know how stressful it can be - I was born in the Northeast and then moved to Nashville when I was 12 so my mom and I would drive up there to visit family, but we would often bring our dog and cats with us on that 13 hr ride because we didn’t have anyone we trusted to watch them. It’s a great time, unless it’s a family emergency. Now, I get to be that person for other people! My clients relaxing, knowing that they can have fun or do what needs doing and that their fur babies are taken care of at home - that is priceless and never gets old. If you have 3 or more pets, I'm happy to give a discount. I know how hard it can be trying to find care for them when you have many. Feel free to reach out! Pets are family. I will make sure they receive the best care possible! I'm a night owl myself when I'm home but whatever their routine is, I will stick to that as much as I can. For dogs, walks are included in housesitting if you want that. And any plant and garden care etc. Totally depends on your and your pet's needs. I'm so excited to look after your fur baby!
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind (including special needs) since I was very young, from having my own to walking and feeding neighbor’s dogs or caring for them when they went away. My first job was at a Doggy Daycare and I have worked as a groomer and had my own Pet Care business for 10 years in Massachusetts up until I just moved to Nashville in June. I currently have open availability for all your pet care needs! Any days and times needed I can fit into my schedule with no problem. I have many former client’s numbers I can always provide for recommendations if needed. I stay at your home with your pet(s) so they can stay in their own environment comfortably and provide them with all the care and love until you get back! We will go over their needs and schedule beforehand so everything will be all set.
About: I absolutely love caring for dogs and have experience looking after dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. I’ve also completed many drop-in visits, including feeding, providing fresh water, giving medications, and making sure each dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I am currently enrolled in school full time so it fits into my routine perfectly with not having to work different jobs while in school. I care for every animal as if they were my own, providing them with the same love, attention, and care I would give to my own pets. I also treat every client’s home with the most respect and care, keeping their space clean and treating it as I would my own.

About: I have experience with all animals from reptiles to cats and dogs. all sizes. I have a german shepard mix and used to have a pitbull as well. I also have a cat which has helped me broaden my pet experience! I love making sure all furry friends are happy,healthy and taken care of! Its apart of my everyday life with a dog and lizard at home. making furry friends happy and keeping them healthy is important to me I have a fenced in yard, making sure all animals stay inside at all times. When outside it is important to me to watch what my furry friends might be doing making sure they aren’t getting into anything they aren’t supposed to
About: I have been around cats and dogs most of my life. Had mostly larger breed dogs. Two Weimaraner‘s, a black lab, and a Rottweiler. Had a cat for about 10 years growing up. My son has a Great Pyrenees that I went with him to pick up when he was only two months old and he is now a year and a half. I walk my sons dog two times a day at minimum while he is working. I do travel some, but otherwise I will be home. Retired and ready to walk. I always wash, and clean water bowls, food bowls when adding new food. Put on calming music for the dog as well to ease them.

“If you are looking for someone to watch your furbaby and give them all the care and love you would, choose Christy!! My husband and I have a one year old mini aussie shepard (Zelda) with moderate separation anxiety. We went on our first trip without her and this was also our first time having someone that wasn't family watch Zelda. We were so nervous to be leaving her with someone we didn't know, but after the meet and greet we knew right away Christy was going to take excellent care of her. She sent us updates throughout our trip with pictures and we never once worried about Zelda's safety. This whole experience has been incredible and I would give 10 stars if I could! Zelda absolutely loves her and we will choose Christy from now on ❤”


“Bailie took great care of our kitten, Shortbread! She sent us great picture updates everyday, and he seemed well taken care of when we picked him up. Thanks Bailie!”

“Victoria and Michael provided loving care to my sweet Kili on her first visit ever to their home while I was travelling. Every day, Victoria sent me pictures and brief videos, with quick text updates, to reassure me that Kili was safe, was having fun, and was making friends. I fully intend to use them again in the future when I need a dependable, loving sitter for my sweet girl. Big thanks to them for making Kili's first ever kennel experience a positive one!”

“This is my second time using Christopher. And Smokey had a blast so I witnessed in the daily photos and updates from him. His dog Emile is very understanding and knows what to do with all breeds and types. Matches Smokey’s energy with his own and has fun. I will be recommending and using Christopher for the future boardings I intend to book!”

“Kortney was amazing. She tooksuch great care of my handsome boy over the few days he stayed with her that he was sad to leave her. I'm absolutely going to plan play dates with her and definitely rebook. I received pictures, video, and updates about him. I was very happy with her and her service.”

“Jamie took great care of our dog Rocky this week. She was kind enough to offer a meet and greet, and then was flexible to change the date when the weather wasn’t cooperating. Jamie sent daily updates with photos. Rocky enjoyed playing with Jamie’s dogs and her other boarding pups. She seemed to feel at home with Jamie and her family. We will definitely rebook with Jamie in the future.”

“Brian and Tara were fantastic! They were incredibly responsive to messages and flexible to accommodate our travel details and a meet & greet. They have an excellent set-up, and our dog was in great hands. We particularly appreciated the frequent updates, pictures, and videos! We will definitely use them again!”

“I’m so grateful for the amazing care my dogs received from Lisa! They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. Lisa made sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention — even making sure they got a quick walk after the rain. Communication was smooth throughout, and I felt totally at ease while I was away. I’d absolutely trust her again for future stays. Highly recommend!”

“Ritch and his family were superb taking care of our retired Greyhound Spidey. He was very well loved by his three boys, will definitely be calling them again!”

“Abigail was so sweet with my puppy, trying to understand what the puppy needs and providing closely. Also thank you for taking last minute ask for the sitting request. Absolutely the best!”

“We had a 10/10 Rover experience with Marissa! She was super easy to coordinate with and we could tell that she took the best care of Eddie. He was so sleepy when we brought him home from playing with her pup all weekend! We will definitely be calling her again.”

“Mo was absolutely amazing. Kept me informed with videos and pictures once a day. She kept me updated about how he was doing as well. She had a very nice big fenced yard for him. Would definitely recommend!”


“Pluto was comfortable with Janey right away and settled and loved her yard and house from her first 5 minutes there. Janey was thorough in making sure she knew what Pluto needed and how she could make her comfortable during her stay. It was obvious at the end of Pluto's vacation with Janey that they had bonded and Pluto was happy. As an extra bonus, Janey is one of the kindest, coolest, and most interesting people I have met in quite a while. The whole experience of booking a stay with her for Pluto was positive from beginning to end.”
