“Ms Melanie was awesome. I could tell the second she saw Oliver that he was in good hands. Oliver had a great time and did not freak when I left because he felt at home too. Thanks Melanie, you'll see us again.”

“It didn’t take 30 seconds of meeting Regina to know that Murphy was going to be in good hands. We loved the updates and pictures throughout his stay. I would 100% use Regina’s services again.”

“If my Penny is the Poster girl for Rover then Mia and Caleb are the Poster Parents! I've never left my dog with anyone but family members or someone she knew closely. I had an urgent housing need for my dog when I came to a graduation at Tennessee Tech, and my original plans had changed quickly. Mia and Caleb are rock stars! A five-star review does not seem good enough. I scoured six reviews to land on them. Location and their reviews had everything to do with it. They made Penny fill right at home, I could tell from the pictures. They even let her sleep in their bed!! She took to them instantly. She has separation anxiety, so I was really worried. But they said she only barked for a couple minutes and settled in just fine. They made a place for on the back of their couch so she could look out the window for me. That makes her happy. I gave them instructions and they followed them to the T. I can't thank the two of them enough. They are amazing. Thank you Mia and Caleb for making my night so much easier and worrisome free! YOU BOTH ROCK!!!”

“Erica was a dream come true. Her and her family took in our three golden retrievers and treated them like they were her own. She communicated often, sent pictures of the dogs and asked very good questions to help them remain comfortable in her care. I honestly won the lotto in choosing her for our dog care when traveling. We had total peace of mind while we were away and it was 100% due to the loving care and true investment Erica and her loving made to our three dogs. Erica is our go to from now on!”


“It was my first time leaving an animal with another person, and I couldn't pick a better person to do that with, Cindy was awesome with Zeus, she sent lots of pictures and video we text back and forth it was awesome I can't say enough about her. Would highly recommend her to anyone and will.”

“I like bringing Sidekick here because I can tell she has a great time. She gets plenty of time to play outdoors and plenty of care and attention from Alyssa and her family. Coordinating drop off/pick up is easy too.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies just a few weeks old to senior dogs. I’ve helped care for litters alongside their mom, worked on basic puppy training, and understand the extra patience and attention both young and older dogs need. I’ve pet sat many different breeds and enjoy keeping dogs active with walks, playtime, and trips to the dog park. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine and personality so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently doing online school from home and am a stay-at-home mom to my 9-month-old daughter, so I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home. I live on a farm and take two long walks each day, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time, exercise, and attention. I love being outside and will treat your dog like part of the family while they’re in my care. I make sure each pet stays on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and feedings according to their schedule. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys meeting other dogs. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind.
“Izabella and her family were so good to our pom Sammy. He got a lot of attention and play time with her kids, which would have made him feel right at home, plus her own dogs were very sweet. They were very accommodating and gave us lots of updates. 10/10 for not having to worry about our sweet boy while we were on vacation.”

About: I have always been surrounded by dogs since birth. Whether it was in my own home or the home of friends and family I have always loved and cared for all kinds of pets. from dogs to snakes to parrots, I have a special love for all kinds of animals and am quick to show my love to any I pass. I am outgoing and love to be outdoors so I love energetic pets who like to run and be in God's nature. I am a project manager in Baxter, TN and also an online MBA student at TN Tech. Although I work full time, I am able to take long breaks and my wife is a great partner who can help take care of them as well! I also have free weekends and would love to enjoy them with furry friends! I have a great outdoor space beside my apartment that is perfect for a dog’s energy. I also would gladly go to dog parks or keep them leashed on a walk if they are untrained for open spaces. I have a lovely wife who loved dogs, and neighborhood friends who have dogs of their own if they would like to be social. If they need to be crated that is also perfectly fine!

About: As a kitten foster and multi-pet household caregiver, I’m used to caring for animals with different needs, energy levels, and personalities. Whether it’s playful kittens, shy cats, or dogs that need structure and attention, I adjust my care to what each pet needs. I’m also comfortable administering medications and paying close attention to behavior and health. I take the time to really understand each animal and respond to what they need—whether that’s extra patience, playtime, routine, or a quieter approach. I take pride in being dependable and communicative. You’ll get consistent updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I offer: • Drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays • Care for multiple pets at once • Medication administration • Extra patience for shy or young animals • Close attention to routines and behavior I treat every pet like my own and focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible :) Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely. As long as I have my laptop, I’m able to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I can care for your pet in my home or yours—whatever makes them most comfortable. If they prefer staying in their own space, I’m happy to bring my work with me and keep their routine consistent. This flexibility means your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. They’ll have companionship, supervision, and a calm presence—whether that’s relaxing on my lap while I work or resting nearby. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a secure, calm environment with close supervision. At my home, pets have access to a large backyard that backs up to a farm and a quiet cul-de-sac street, giving plenty of space to explore safely. While my yard isn’t fenced, I take extra precautions to ensure pets remain secure at all times. I have a small Morkie who enjoys gentle play, and kittens in my care are always excited to meet new friends. Interacting with other animals not only enriches their social experience but also helps kittens become more confident and adoptable. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your routines closely, provide attentive supervision, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and confident in their familiar surroundings.
“I have never had to get a sitter for my dog before and was a little nervous at first but Bethany was so profession and asked many questions about Panda and ensured me she would take great care of her and send picture and video updates, which she did. Panda had so much fun during her stay. I will definitely use her again.”

“Dawn was absolutely AMAZING. You can tell she is very passionate about what she does. She sends you so many pictures of your pet so you know they are doing great and we REALLY appreciate that. If you ever want someone to watch your pet let it be her! we will 100% be having our dog come back here!”

“As soon as we arrived, we felt at ease meeting Presli and Luna. Presli showed us around her home and where our Julio would be for the next few days. We were happy to know he could around with Luna, and be able to relax and sleep inside her home. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our fur baby with Presli, we knew she would care for him like her own! I highly recommend Presli for all your 4 legged babies! If we are back in TN and in need of a sitter, I have Presli information saved. Thank you so much Presli and Luna for welcoming our Julio to your beautiful home and land!”

“Hayley was a great drop in pet sitter for my kitty, Blackie. Her daily visits, pictures and info on how Blackie was doing each day made me feel that she wasn't missing us too much.

“Highly recommend Mariah!! We needed extremely last minute daycare for our 2 pups and Mariah was a life saver! Very communicative, friendly & professional. Sent lots of photo updates & our little ones seemed to have a grand old time with her! Would definitely book again”

“Regina is wonderful watching our Schatzi. When Schatzi arrived she was excited to be there. She was a little bit shy because she heard another dog, but I know she settled in quickly. When we picked her up, she was happy but was tired out from all her excitement of the day and needed a nap :)”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love for animals and the care I put into making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I grew up in a home where we always had both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. As an adult, I became interested in positive reinforcement training and have followed Zack George’s training methods with my own dog. I value building trust, encouraging good behavior through patience and consistency, and creating a calm, positive environment. My goal is to be as much of a companion for pets as they are for us. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet cuddles, or simply having someone nearby to make them feel safe and relaxed, I will treat them with patience, kindness, and respect. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I take the time to learn their routines and preferences so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work in education, which allows me to be available before school, during my lunch break, and after school to check in on pets, take them for walks, feed them, or spend time with them. On weekends, I enjoy having more flexibility to dedicate extra time to getting to know each pet, keeping them company, and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I strive to provide consistent, reliable care while giving each pet the attention they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for your pet. Being away from their owner can already create some anxiety, so I believe it’s important to keep them in the comfort of their familiar environment whenever possible. Before you leave, I take the time to learn your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special preferences. I work closely with each owner to maintain as much consistency as possible, helping pets feel safe, secure, and comfortable while you’re away. I also provide plenty of companionship, attention, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being well cared for.

About: I’ve grown up around multiple animals, having dogs and cats and other exotic animals. I also used to watch neighbor’s pets if they needed me to. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I am a college student who is always on the move and looking for new adventures to go on! I do not offer pet sitting in my own home due to living in an apartment with roommates, but depending on your living situation I always make it fun for the animal wether that’s playing outside or going on a walk.

About: I care for every pet like my own, focusing on safety, comfort, and routine.

I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and always provide updates for peace of mind! I attend school part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I plan my classes around my commitments, allowing plenty of time for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. Your pet will never feel rushed and will get the attention and consistency they deserve.

I keep homes clean and secure, supervise pets closely, and ensure walks are done safely with proper leashing. In your home or mine, I provide a calm, loving environment and regular updates so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I come from a farming background, and have cared for dogs and cats in a variety of environments. I worked as a livestock manager for farming operations a total of 5+ years, besides having owned and raised many of my own pets since I was a kid. I have often volunteered to pet sit for friends and relatives, including both dogs and cats. I can handle all basic daily needs, feeding, walking, monitoring, and even administer medications if required. I am on a seasonal break for the holidays, and looking to supplement my income. I can visit daily within a reasonable distance, or stay overnights when required. Aside from some dates I will block out around Christmas, I have open availability! I will come to you for pet care. Cats will be fed according to their schedule, litter cleaned daily. Dogs will be walked at or near feeding times, and let out for potty breaks as needed throughout the day. Lots of love given at all times! If there are other medical needs I will need details of their care when setting up an appointment.

About: I don’t just watch dogs — I care for them the way I’d want someone to care for my own. I’m experienced at reading body language, honoring routines, and creating a calm, safe environment where dogs feel secure and loved. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or just wants extra snuggles, I adapt my care to them, not the other way around. Your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. Dog sitting fits naturally into my schedule, allowing me to give focused, unrushed attention throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection and supervision. I care for pets in their home by following their normal routine, providing attentive feeding, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of comfort, safety, and affection
About: I've taken care of many dog breeds and sizes that have specific needs. I have taken care of all dogs breeds from great danes to dachshunds and I love them all! I have never found a dog or cat that I cannot get along with. I have a very flexible schedule and am available almost always from services. In my personal life, I currently have my owe dog that is a dachshund jack russel mix. My roommate also has a prembroke welch corgi, so I start off my day with pet care every morning. I love to take my dogs to the dog park and on walks to let them get energy out. Also, since they are both only 7 months I play with them over 6 hours a day with the amount of energy they have. I have a fenced in yard with two puppies at home that are spoiled more and more everyday. I will take care of your pet the same way I look after mine making sure they are loved and cared for, always has its needs met, and never feels lonely or neglected while you are away!

About: I have 5 years of being a dog sitter/ walker, working with numerous breeds and personalities. My main duties were feeding, walking, potty breaks, bathing, and I have experience with administering medications as I’ve worked with dogs with epilepsy. I’m currently in the air national guard so I do work one week in the month but besides that I have an open schedule Monday through Sunday whatever times work best for the client and their pet. I will care for your pets like they were my own. Safety of the pet is my #1 priority. I will adhere to any special instructions about the pet.

“Ms Melanie was awesome. I could tell the second she saw Oliver that he was in good hands. Oliver had a great time and did not freak when I left because he felt at home too. Thanks Melanie, you'll see us again.”

“It didn’t take 30 seconds of meeting Regina to know that Murphy was going to be in good hands. We loved the updates and pictures throughout his stay. I would 100% use Regina’s services again.”

“If my Penny is the Poster girl for Rover then Mia and Caleb are the Poster Parents! I've never left my dog with anyone but family members or someone she knew closely. I had an urgent housing need for my dog when I came to a graduation at Tennessee Tech, and my original plans had changed quickly. Mia and Caleb are rock stars! A five-star review does not seem good enough. I scoured six reviews to land on them. Location and their reviews had everything to do with it. They made Penny fill right at home, I could tell from the pictures. They even let her sleep in their bed!! She took to them instantly. She has separation anxiety, so I was really worried. But they said she only barked for a couple minutes and settled in just fine. They made a place for on the back of their couch so she could look out the window for me. That makes her happy. I gave them instructions and they followed them to the T. I can't thank the two of them enough. They are amazing. Thank you Mia and Caleb for making my night so much easier and worrisome free! YOU BOTH ROCK!!!”

“Erica was a dream come true. Her and her family took in our three golden retrievers and treated them like they were her own. She communicated often, sent pictures of the dogs and asked very good questions to help them remain comfortable in her care. I honestly won the lotto in choosing her for our dog care when traveling. We had total peace of mind while we were away and it was 100% due to the loving care and true investment Erica and her loving made to our three dogs. Erica is our go to from now on!”


“It was my first time leaving an animal with another person, and I couldn't pick a better person to do that with, Cindy was awesome with Zeus, she sent lots of pictures and video we text back and forth it was awesome I can't say enough about her. Would highly recommend her to anyone and will.”

“I like bringing Sidekick here because I can tell she has a great time. She gets plenty of time to play outdoors and plenty of care and attention from Alyssa and her family. Coordinating drop off/pick up is easy too.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from puppies just a few weeks old to senior dogs. I’ve helped care for litters alongside their mom, worked on basic puppy training, and understand the extra patience and attention both young and older dogs need. I’ve pet sat many different breeds and enjoy keeping dogs active with walks, playtime, and trips to the dog park. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine and personality so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently doing online school from home and am a stay-at-home mom to my 9-month-old daughter, so I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home. I live on a farm and take two long walks each day, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time, exercise, and attention. I love being outside and will treat your dog like part of the family while they’re in my care. I make sure each pet stays on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and feedings according to their schedule. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys meeting other dogs. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind.
“Izabella and her family were so good to our pom Sammy. He got a lot of attention and play time with her kids, which would have made him feel right at home, plus her own dogs were very sweet. They were very accommodating and gave us lots of updates. 10/10 for not having to worry about our sweet boy while we were on vacation.”

About: I have always been surrounded by dogs since birth. Whether it was in my own home or the home of friends and family I have always loved and cared for all kinds of pets. from dogs to snakes to parrots, I have a special love for all kinds of animals and am quick to show my love to any I pass. I am outgoing and love to be outdoors so I love energetic pets who like to run and be in God's nature. I am a project manager in Baxter, TN and also an online MBA student at TN Tech. Although I work full time, I am able to take long breaks and my wife is a great partner who can help take care of them as well! I also have free weekends and would love to enjoy them with furry friends! I have a great outdoor space beside my apartment that is perfect for a dog’s energy. I also would gladly go to dog parks or keep them leashed on a walk if they are untrained for open spaces. I have a lovely wife who loved dogs, and neighborhood friends who have dogs of their own if they would like to be social. If they need to be crated that is also perfectly fine!

You can rest assured knowing your baby is living their best life on their doggy retreat, so you can be present and enjoy your own travels.

“As soon as we arrived, we felt at ease meeting Presli and Luna. Presli showed us around her home and where our Julio would be for the next few days. We were happy to know he could around with Luna, and be able to relax and sleep inside her home. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our fur baby with Presli, we knew she would care for him like her own! I highly recommend Presli for all your 4 legged babies! If we are back in TN and in need of a sitter, I have Presli information saved. Thank you so much Presli and Luna for welcoming our Julio to your beautiful home and land!”

“Salena was so great with my dogs. She sent photo updates and when I picked up the dogs, all of their belongings were cleaned/washed, packed up and easy to bring home. Salena gave us peace of mind knowing our dogs were well taken care off, making our vacation a breeze! Thank you Salena!”
