“Kallie was very sweet and used good judgement when exposing my old girl to her pups. Pippa was very content and happy at pickup. I would recommend Kallie to watch your pup 🐶”
“Overall great experience! Great communication from Lyndsey. She would send daily pictures and I could see how happy Kira (German/Australian Shepherd mix) was to be there. Was very easy to pick up and drop off. Kira also loved the homemade treats Lyndsey provided. Will continuously recommend her.”
“we were hesitant leaving our very active puppy with anybody, but Aric was able to answer all our questions and quickly! After booking and then showing up, our puppy had thrown up as we pulled into the driveway, Aric and his wife were extremely kind and cleaned the mess for us! They were great! They checked in and sent updates as asked throughout the week. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Deree and her husband were wonderful with our English bulldog, Parker! She’s not even a year old, so it meant a lot knowing they took extra care with her and paid attention to her needs as she can be very hyper at times and needs some re direction. I felt completely at ease the entire time knowing she was in such good hands. I forgot to pack enough food for the second day, and they stepped in without hesitation to make sure she was fed and well taken care of, which I really appreciated. Their yard is nice and fully fenced in, making it a safe and fun space for the dogs to play. Parker clearly had a great time she slept the entire day when she got home! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl. We will definitely be using you again!”
“Denita is great! We had a last minute trip and ended up arriving back much later than expected. She was flexible and allowed our girl to stay another night. The pictures and communication were wonderful to receive. We will be re-booking!!”
“This is our second time boarding our two Bostons in Melody’s home…clearly because the 1st time went so well. She lets them chill on her furniture, run around her fenced yard and takes them for long walks on the Greenway. We couldn’t ask for a more caring and trusting pet sitter! And she is excellent at sharing photos & videos of them throughout their stay. And they love her husband too😉”
“My Cali is very Happy and Brittany is awesome. She’s very loving with my fur baby. Cali for sure will be coming back to stay at Brittany’s house. I recommend her 100 %.”
“Shannon was loving and caring towards our pups. She sent daily pictures and even gathered the babies a bath before we picked them up. So happy with her service and care.”
“We prayed about our dogs safety, comfort and care while we were gone during spring break. Meghan has been God’s good gift to us and our pup! So happy to have found a great caregiver and home!”
“Wendy was absolutely amazing with Remington, and he was very happy with her, and her family. If anyone needs a dog sitter I highly recommend Wendy, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Wendy. Remy thanks you too. ?❤️”
“Cynthia is a 10/10 Trusted Sitter. If I could give her over 5 stars on Rover, I most certainly would without hesitation. The ‘start to end’ booking process was seamless and she was excellent to communicate with. She was beyond accommodating and all I needed to really know upon pick up was how my Tegan behaved. She did not want to leave Cynthia’s side which was a GREAT sign. Thank you Cynthia and Miles for opening your new, clean home to Tegan and spending time with her. Having to travel often for work doesn’t make it easy leaving my dog daughter behind but knowing she’s in good hands with you and close by, makes a world of a difference. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for having this service as an option here in Polk County, TN!!! Looking forward to our next Rover boarding with you in a couple of weeks!”
“Melissa was so sweet and sent plenty of pictures of my fur babies during their stay! She is extremely responsive and flexible and kept me informed daily of how my dogs were doing.”
“Ruth and her husband provided excellent care for my dog while I was away. They have great knowledge about dogs and offered a wonderful home away from home for my pup. Highly recommended.”
“Maddie was great to work with and took great care of our dogs. Facility and boarding arrangements were top notch and Maddie sent updates and photos so we could see how our dogs were doing. Great communication and will be using Maddie in the future.”
“Sharon took great care of our cat! She stayed in touch with us throughout our vacation and sent pictures each day. We could tell our cat was enjoying her vacation, as well. Thank you for everything, Sharon!”
“She was great! She communicated well and was very accommodating when I needed her to keep Eris a little longer at the last minute. I really appreciate her flexibility and would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 15 years — starting with my own and growing into a trusted home-away-from-home for others’ pups too. Over that time I’ve cared for everything from bouncy puppies learning the ropes to senior dogs on daily medication, so I’m comfortable adjusting to whatever your dog needs. Every dog who stays with us gets fenced acreage to roam, a steady daily routine, and plenty of family time — plus photo updates so you always know they’re happy and well cared for. I’m a homeschooling mom, which means your pup gets lots of company throughout the day! A typical day starts with an early morning outing to run around and go potty, then breakfast, followed by lots of in-and-out playtime throughout the day. We wrap up with dinner and a calm bedtime routine. Your fur baby will get plenty of socialization, playtime, and snuggles from our family all day long — they won’t just be boarded, they’ll be part of the household. Your dog will have their own climate-controlled space, separate from our other animals but fully visible to them — so they can watch (and be watched by!) our cats, chickens, mini donkeys, and our own fur babies from a secure, fully enclosed 6-foot no-climb fence. Dogs stay in their kennels overnight, and for occasional breaks throughout the day depending on weather. Please bring your dog’s kennel, leash, and food dishes for their stay. If your pup needs medication, we’re happy to administer oral or topical meds for a $5/day fee. And if you’d like some extra peace of mind, I’m happy to send daily photo updates during their stay!

“My experience proved that Cheyenne is a responsible woman that took care of my 3 cats. One would not eat much, and she therefore made an extra trip to attempt to feed her. She also texted me about the issue and suggested she could try to feed her again. Cheyenne is very considerate and I would not hesitate to hire her services in the future.”
“Stephanie did a wonderful job watching our cats. She was prompt with responses to messages and gave regular updates on how they were doing. Would definitely request for her again next time we are out of town.”
About: I have had decades of experience walking and caring for dogs, cats, frogs, lizards, turtles, parrots, poultry and more. I have taken care of big dogs and little dogs, cats and kittens. I am familiar with giving medications to animals, as well. I work part time and have a fairly flexible schedule. I am a licensed paramedic and educator just earning extra income. I keep parrots and poultry currently with cats and dogs. I have had had herps and reptiles in the past, as well. I will treat your pets like they were my own. I know the anxiety of having to leave pets to get out of town and will do everything I can to make sure you don't regret it.
“Tasia took great care of my pets. Excellent communication and thankfully she was able to urgently change her schedule not once but twice to help me out. I’m very grateful for her and would highly recommend her.”
“Everything was great, we couldn't be happier with her service. I don't know what we would do without her help, and she was so easy to work with, it was nice to know we had nothing to worry about while we were away from home. Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!”
“Very pleased that Jay was able to take care of my cat, MIka, while I was away. Such a good feeling to travel, knowing that all is well on the home front! Communication was top notch and the care he provided was excellent.”
About: I’ve owned animals my whole life, especially dogs. I have two dogs of my own who are very spoiled. I would love to meet your dog(s) and take some stress off of your day. Thank u! I am a part time college student going to class late on Tuesday and Thursday . I work from 9-5 on Wednesday and Friday and 9-3 on Saturday at a furniture store in Madisonville. I have plenty of down time all throughout the week. I will accommodate any needs that you have for your pet(s) in your home. I would love to take them out for walks or take them out to play and burn off some steam like I do for my own dogs.
“Showed up and did everything, very respectful of my space and my pets. It’s always a stress wondering if someone will be reliable especially with your pets while you’re on vacation. I’m very pleased and would definitely recommend to anyone in need of pet sitting.”
About: Hey there! Im on par with crazy dog lady at this point❤️ I'm dedicated to taking care of your pet(s) and making sure that they have everything they need and are safe. I have four of my own and I would adopt more if my husband would win the lottery and buy us a dog farm lol. I do not mix my dogs with your pets to ensure safety of all puppers! I will care for your pet(s) just like I would any of mine. I don't have children, I have fur babies :-) My house has a large fenced backyard with trees and is just like being in the woods. I will follow the instructions you leave for me, feed them at the times that you request, and dispense any medication as instructed. I am great with communication and will absolutely send you pictures and updates throughout the day because Id want them as well! I work from home and my schedule is very flexible, so I will be able to check on the babies all day and play as needed. If I am coming to your home overnight, I will need access to wifi for work, that is mandatory. I would love to take care of and play with your furbabies; they’re family too. I have a fenced in backyard, but I can also leash walk your pets as needed. We also have a great nature trail within 5 minutes of my home for higher energy dogs.
About: Hi! I’m Lyndsey and I was a veterinary technician for 4 years, but have been dog sitting full time for the past 3+ years. I also have my own licensed dog boarding business, and do Rover on the side when I have availability! My husband and I live in Athens,TN. We have about 5 acres of land fenced in. We love getting to meet all kinds of different dogs, and having them interact with my kids. I’m home pretty much all the time so I never have to crate unless they sleep in one at night. I have clients that have been returning since 2019. I have 2 little girls, and all the dogs I’ve watched have been great with them! During all of the stays for the dogs I watch I provide homemade treats, and toys to play with. I hope to watch your fur baby real soon! ❤️ So I’m available any weekend or weekday to dog sit your sweet fur babies! I will make sure they are in great hands! Look forward to meeting new clients! I’m able to administer any medications you may need for your fur baby! I’m currently home 24/7 unless I have doctor appts, or have to run a few errands. So your dog wouldn’t ever need to be crated unless you have them sleep in one at night. I can also admin meds if they require to have any during the day. I have a fenced in yard that wraps around my whole house, and also send pics throughout the day how they are doing. They have plenty of room to play as well.

About: I’ve owned dogs and watched dogs for a long time. I’ve had experience with teacups to Danes. I bred Jack Russels for 3years and worked as a vet assistant for 2. I love all animals so, yes- I will watch your cats, birds, fish, and reptiles too. I currently work night shift- Sunday through Thursday. I’m off weekends and for all major holidays so feel free to save my link for those family vacations! My yard is fenced and I live right next to the greenway and dog park so, there are plenty of outdoor opportunities for excercise and play with me. I’m also very comfortable with cuddles in bed or on the couch on rainy days. 🥰
About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.
About: I have raised dogs and small animals my whole life. I have watched family and friend’s animals. I am currently a Veterinary Technician student online learning more about animal care each day. I do not only watch pets, but I will go the extra mile to ensure you and your pet have the best experience possible!! I currently work monday - friday 7-4:30. After those times I am available. I am available most weekends. Let me know what days you are needing and I can work with you! I take my pups to walk in parks, or around my neighborhood. I can adapt to whatever your situation you and your pet have. Just let me know what your pets need to do and it will be done. I have inside dogs, but they go out several times a day for potty breaks and to exercise.
About: My name is Tina and I am a retired veterinary technician with 8 years experience in veterinary medicine and 20 years in animal care. I am looking to pet sit full time. I used to pet sit part time before I moved to Tennessee. I pet sat for 7-8 clients at a time. I take care of animals ranging from dogs, cats, pocket pets, reptiles, birds, farm animals ect. I do not discriminate against dog breeds or pet ages. They are all amazing to me and I have a huge passion for animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I am 100% comfortable giving medications (pills, liquids, insulin injections, rx diets ect) to your pet if needed. My services would include stopping by to feed, water, give attention to your pet, clean up messes, give meds, let outside to go potty, and make sure everyone is happy and healthy. I will also walk your dog if needed to be leashed walked vs let into the fenced yard to play and potty. I have experience pet sitting for clients with MULTIPLE pets also. I can't wait to meet you and your furbabies! I am currently trying to make pet sitting my full time job, so I am pretty open when it comes to days and times to take care of your pet/pets. I can not stay overnight due to having pets at home myself to take care of. I go by all instructions left by pet owner. I know some pets have to stay seperate whether it be when eating or at all times, so they will not be together unless client is okay with it. All pets will be on a leash unless yard is fenced in for them to safely go outside to play. While in the fenced yard I will be there the entire time to supervise play time and to give the attention they need.
About: Liscensed as a veterinary medical technician in the state of Tennessee. Attended college at Lincoln memorial university and have been practicing since 2004. I've always owned animals and have worked with all different species. Very flexible. I work from home right now and I have lots of freedom with my schedule. I generally know a week in advance if I'll be away. I live in the country and have little traffic on my road. We can take long walks away from all my pets.

About: I’m currently a kennel worker at the animal clinic of Athens, and going to school to be a veterinary assistant. I have two dogs, two cats, and a ferret of my own so there’s really not much that can phase me, and I love meeting new animals!! Since I’m working part time and pretty close to home my schedule is flexible. I also have hour long lunch breaks in which I go home for. I have a fenced in yard and doggy door! So if you’re worried about your pup getting out or not being able to have access to outside you can rest assured your pup will be alright.

“Lyndsey and her kids were wonderfully sweet to my dog while I visited a tourist attraction. She was very prompt in all of our communications and understanding when I mistook a time zone difference! Lyndsey has a lot of experience and I highly recommend her for your pets needs!”
“My dog ran back and gave Kallie two good-byes before coming to me to go home, which was a great sign to me that he really loved her and trusted her. She is very good with my golden retriever and has a nice home and fenced yard for him. I am so happy I found her.”
“This was the first time for Penelope in daycare. Denita was very patient with Penelope and warmed up nicely. Penelope will be going to camp in a couple weeks with Denita and I think will be great. 👍👍”

About: Experienced vet assistant and kennel technician with a strong background in both dog and cat care. I've volunteered at animal shelters and lived in a multi-pet home, providing daily care, enrichment, and love to animals of all breeds and temperaments. I work from home and can provide near-constant care and attention for your pets. They’ll never be left alone for more than an hour or two, ensuring a safe, supervised, and comforting environment at all times. Your pets will enjoy a loving, comfortable home with plenty of freedom to relax—including cozy spots on the furniture. They’ll have safe playtime 4 times a day at a local dog park and are let out for potty breaks 6 times a day. When we aren't going on walks, the dogs will be free to roam the townhouse and enjoy plenty of love and pets! At night, they’ll sleep peacefully in their crate, but don’t worry—I provide plenty of fun and enrichment during the day to make sure they’re happily tuckered out and ready for a restful sleep. Every pet gets personal attention and care tailored to their needs, so they feel right at home.
About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.

About: Hi there, I'm Tiffany! I loooove all fur babies..pups, kitties, ferets...you name it!

“Jay was absolutely amazing with my pup, always sent me detailed feedback and never missed a picture, which truly helps when you are away from your pup. Jay is the type of person that goes the extra mile to make sure you know your pup is in good hands. I would use Jay moving forward without a question!!”
About: If I were looking for a dog sitter I am exactly the kind of sitter I would want. And I am picky! I will dote on your babies. My husband said he's never known anyone who sincerely cares for, and worries about, animals more than me. And he has seen a lot of pet owners because he's a veterinarian. I worry about all of God's creatures, what they're thinking and feeling, are they cold, thirsty, hungry, loved. I am so in love with animals that I became vegetarian 29 years ago. I'm not crazy, I just love animals. I am a college graduate and hold a professional job. Your animals will love me. I can provide frequent high energy exercise as tolerated by each pet. I have plenty of energy to ensure your pet gets adequate exercise and happiness. I care for each animal with individualized love, safety and attention. No animal will feel left out. I've never met a dog I didn't love.
About: I’ve owned animals my whole life, especially dogs. I have two dogs of my own who are very spoiled. I would love to meet your dog(s) and take some stress off of your day. Thank u! I am a part time college student going to class late on Tuesday and Thursday . I work from 9-5 on Wednesday and Friday and 9-3 on Saturday at a furniture store in Madisonville. I have plenty of down time all throughout the week. I will accommodate any needs that you have for your pet(s) in your home. I would love to take them out for walks or take them out to play and burn off some steam like I do for my own dogs.
About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.
About: I've been a veterinary nurse for over 10 years. I'm experienced in all facets of animal care and specialize in pets with medical needs and seniors! I work per diem in veterinary medicine. My schedule has a lot of flexibility! I like to vary my weeks between the two. Spending time with others pets and helping animals in clinic keeps me happy and makes me proud! In my home, pets will be treated as my own. I do not require kennels or cages if the pet isn't used to them. I invite them to be as comfortable as possible! I give them my undivided attention, and depending on the activity needs of the dog, take them on plenty of walks and adventures! Cats hold a special place in my heart and are always welcome in my home. ❤️

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and regularly care for the pets of family and friends. I truly love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and give them the same care, attention, and affection I’d want for my own pets. After all, pets are family. My schedule is very flexible as a part time server and college student. I’m generally available every day before 4 PM, and I often have evening availability depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit their needs and can accommodate most requests with advance notice. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, stress free environment. I have a very friendly dog who loves other animals and can provide a crate if needed. I follow each pet’s routine, respect their individual needs, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while their family is away.
About: I’ve had dogs, cats, and horses since I was a little kid. I currently have a rescue pup, Rosco, who is my whole world. I’ve helped my friends and family with their fur babies for years and I’m happy to care for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I work from home so my schedule is quite flexible. I'm happy to help in any way you need, whether it's letting them out to potty, providing walks, or play time. I always want to make sure the house rules of the client are followed. Whether that’s leaving music or the tv on for your fur babies or making sure they’re safely crated before leaving the house.

About: I am new to Rover, but have been working with dogs/cats both in the veterinary field as vet tech, and Sitting for 8 years. In addition, I have owned dogs my whole life. I am *Fear-Free Certified* with a special interest in animal mental health, and making sure they feel calm and secure. I am skilled in reading body language and acting accordingly. I am also skilled at medication administration, oral or injectable. I have worked with dogs both in critical and emergency situations, and would be able to take the correct steps if an emergency were to occur. Historically, I have mainly worked with dogs and cats, but I am open to Sitting any species of any size. Along with my years of experience handling and caring for animals, I am an honest, passionate, and down-to-earth person, making me an excellent and efficient employee. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting all the furry babies! I just moved to Tennessee from South Carolina and have a completely open schedule! I am looking forward to meeting new clientele. I can take walks any time of day and am free to Sit every day of the week. I only offer services through my clients' homes as I stay in an apartment. Pets are more comfortable this way, and can keep in their normal routine. Whether that be multiple walks a day, going to the park, or just relaxing in the back yard.
“FANTASTIC. If I could leave 10 stars I would. Danielle really came through helping me with zero. If I am ever back in Tennessee I’d go the extra mile to drop him off to be in her care. Super communicative, helpful, resourceful with my needs. Thank you so much for you help!”
About: Liscensed as a veterinary medical technician in the state of Tennessee. Attended college at Lincoln memorial university and have been practicing since 2004. I've always owned animals and have worked with all different species. Very flexible. I work from home right now and I have lots of freedom with my schedule. I generally know a week in advance if I'll be away. I live in the country and have little traffic on my road. We can take long walks away from all my pets. I have one medium dog inside and she can be separated from your pet.
About: I’m currently a kennel worker at the animal clinic of Athens, and going to school to be a veterinary assistant. I have two dogs, two cats, and a ferret of my own so there’s really not much that can phase me, and I love meeting new animals!! Since I’m working part time and pretty close to home my schedule is flexible. I also have hour long lunch breaks in which I go home for. I have a fenced in yard and doggy door! So if you’re worried about your pup getting out or not being able to have access to outside you can rest assured your pup will be alright.
About: My name is Tina and I am a retired veterinary technician with 8 years experience in veterinary medicine and 20 years in animal care. I am looking to pet sit full time. I used to pet sit part time before I moved to Tennessee. I pet sat for 7-8 clients at a time. I take care of animals ranging from dogs, cats, pocket pets, reptiles, birds, farm animals ect. I do not discriminate against dog breeds or pet ages. They are all amazing to me and I have a huge passion for animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I am 100% comfortable giving medications (pills, liquids, insulin injections, rx diets ect) to your pet if needed. My services would include stopping by to feed, water, give attention to your pet, clean up messes, give meds, let outside to go potty, and make sure everyone is happy and healthy. I will also walk your dog if needed to be leashed walked vs let into the fenced yard to play and potty. I have experience pet sitting for clients with MULTIPLE pets also. I can't wait to meet you and your furbabies! I am currently trying to make pet sitting my full time job, so I am pretty open when it comes to days and times to take care of your pet/pets. I can not stay overnight due to having pets at home myself to take care of. I go by all instructions left by pet owner. I know some pets have to stay seperate whether it be when eating or at all times, so they will not be together unless client is okay with it. All pets will be on a leash unless yard is fenced in for them to safely go outside to play. While in the fenced yard I will be there the entire time to supervise play time and to give the attention they need.

“Kallie was very sweet and used good judgement when exposing my old girl to her pups. Pippa was very content and happy at pickup. I would recommend Kallie to watch your pup 🐶”
“Overall great experience! Great communication from Lyndsey. She would send daily pictures and I could see how happy Kira (German/Australian Shepherd mix) was to be there. Was very easy to pick up and drop off. Kira also loved the homemade treats Lyndsey provided. Will continuously recommend her.”
“we were hesitant leaving our very active puppy with anybody, but Aric was able to answer all our questions and quickly! After booking and then showing up, our puppy had thrown up as we pulled into the driveway, Aric and his wife were extremely kind and cleaned the mess for us! They were great! They checked in and sent updates as asked throughout the week. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Deree and her husband were wonderful with our English bulldog, Parker! She’s not even a year old, so it meant a lot knowing they took extra care with her and paid attention to her needs as she can be very hyper at times and needs some re direction. I felt completely at ease the entire time knowing she was in such good hands. I forgot to pack enough food for the second day, and they stepped in without hesitation to make sure she was fed and well taken care of, which I really appreciated. Their yard is nice and fully fenced in, making it a safe and fun space for the dogs to play. Parker clearly had a great time she slept the entire day when she got home! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl. We will definitely be using you again!”
“This is our second time boarding our two Bostons in Melody’s home…clearly because the 1st time went so well. She lets them chill on her furniture, run around her fenced yard and takes them for long walks on the Greenway. We couldn’t ask for a more caring and trusting pet sitter! And she is excellent at sharing photos & videos of them throughout their stay. And they love her husband too😉”
“My Cali is very Happy and Brittany is awesome. She’s very loving with my fur baby. Cali for sure will be coming back to stay at Brittany’s house. I recommend her 100 %.”
“Shannon was loving and caring towards our pups. She sent daily pictures and even gathered the babies a bath before we picked them up. So happy with her service and care.”
“Wendy was absolutely amazing with Remington, and he was very happy with her, and her family. If anyone needs a dog sitter I highly recommend Wendy, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Wendy. Remy thanks you too. ?❤️”
“Cynthia is a 10/10 Trusted Sitter. If I could give her over 5 stars on Rover, I most certainly would without hesitation. The ‘start to end’ booking process was seamless and she was excellent to communicate with. She was beyond accommodating and all I needed to really know upon pick up was how my Tegan behaved. She did not want to leave Cynthia’s side which was a GREAT sign. Thank you Cynthia and Miles for opening your new, clean home to Tegan and spending time with her. Having to travel often for work doesn’t make it easy leaving my dog daughter behind but knowing she’s in good hands with you and close by, makes a world of a difference. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for having this service as an option here in Polk County, TN!!! Looking forward to our next Rover boarding with you in a couple of weeks!”
“Melissa was so sweet and sent plenty of pictures of my fur babies during their stay! She is extremely responsive and flexible and kept me informed daily of how my dogs were doing.”
“Maddie was great to work with and took great care of our dogs. Facility and boarding arrangements were top notch and Maddie sent updates and photos so we could see how our dogs were doing. Great communication and will be using Maddie in the future.”
“Sharon took great care of our cat! She stayed in touch with us throughout our vacation and sent pictures each day. We could tell our cat was enjoying her vacation, as well. Thank you for everything, Sharon!”
“She was great! She communicated well and was very accommodating when I needed her to keep Eris a little longer at the last minute. I really appreciate her flexibility and would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 15 years — starting with my own and growing into a trusted home-away-from-home for others’ pups too. Over that time I’ve cared for everything from bouncy puppies learning the ropes to senior dogs on daily medication, so I’m comfortable adjusting to whatever your dog needs. Every dog who stays with us gets fenced acreage to roam, a steady daily routine, and plenty of family time — plus photo updates so you always know they’re happy and well cared for. I’m a homeschooling mom, which means your pup gets lots of company throughout the day! A typical day starts with an early morning outing to run around and go potty, then breakfast, followed by lots of in-and-out playtime throughout the day. We wrap up with dinner and a calm bedtime routine. Your fur baby will get plenty of socialization, playtime, and snuggles from our family all day long — they won’t just be boarded, they’ll be part of the household. Your dog will have their own climate-controlled space, separate from our other animals but fully visible to them — so they can watch (and be watched by!) our cats, chickens, mini donkeys, and our own fur babies from a secure, fully enclosed 6-foot no-climb fence. Dogs stay in their kennels overnight, and for occasional breaks throughout the day depending on weather. Please bring your dog’s kennel, leash, and food dishes for their stay. If your pup needs medication, we’re happy to administer oral or topical meds for a $5/day fee. And if you’d like some extra peace of mind, I’m happy to send daily photo updates during their stay!
“Smokeybear did well. Christina took very good care of him. I could tell she loves all animals and treated Smokey as one of her own pets. He seemed very happy after his stay there Thank you Christina.”
