“We had such a great experience with Ritch and his family! They took such good care of Henry, were so communicative, flexible and kind. We really appreciated it and will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Huri was absolutely amazing with my little Nelly! She made sure that Nelly was well socialized, active, and loved. I also got some lovely picture updates on Nelly during her stay.”
“I am very thankful for Christopher. He was available last minute to dogsit my baby Bruno. He also had a dog himself that my dog could play with and when I picked him up I could tell that my dog enjoyed himself and had a good time. He also was very communicative during the stay and provided updates with pictures. Thank you very much for taking care of my baby and providing him a good experience. I Would definitely use him again and I 100% recommend him to anyone needing a dog sitter. Thank you again Christopher!!”
“Robin was an excellent sitter for my anxious dog, Lily. She provided a lot of care and attention to Lily’s specific needs including careful introductions with her own pets, and ensuring that Lily was always as comfortable as possible in a new space. Lily is a rescue dealing with some fear issues, and Robin really went above and beyond to make her feel safe and at home. I highly recommend Robin and her sweet pup, Ladybird, who was also an excellent host.”
“We are new puppy owners and boarded our dog for the first overnight stay with Marissa. Marissa was wonderful and so caring to our sweet puppy who had some separation anxiety. Would 100% referral her to others as drop off/pick up was easy and her communication was fantastic. We are using her again in a few weeks so now will be a repeat customer.”
“Janelle continues to be a safe, calm, caring individual where I can feel comfortable allowing my little one 🐾🐕🦺 to stay when I have to go away for some time. I super appreciate her always providing the best support and care for Storm. Always very communicative, flexible and kind. Thank you so much for keeping Storm safe.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, and extended stays in my home. Friends, family, and pet owners have trusted me to provide attentive and reliable care, whether that means feeding, exercising, grooming, or simply keeping their dogs company throughout the day. I love staying active and enjoy taking dogs on long walks around my neighborhood, Centennial Park, and the Vanderbilt area. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship for your dog. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. Long walks are one of my favorite activities, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I live in an apartment with access to a dog park within the community and several walkable areas nearby. I’m also close to Centennial Park and the Vanderbilt campus, which are great locations for safe, enjoyable walks. I have experience caring for dogs in my home for extended stays, as well as providing dog walking and pet-sitting services. During visits, I can provide exercise, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention to help your dog feel happy and secure while you're away.
“My pup can be a little anxious around new people but she warmed up to Janey right away. Janey took great care of her and sent updates everyday. Could travel easy knowing she was in good hands!”
“Amanda is a fantastic sitter! My dog gets so excited when I drop her off, which always makes me feel so much better. She has a fantastic back yard and her two dogs are very friendly.”

“This is the second time Ashley has watched my dog and he absolutely adores her. She is very quick at responding and sent pictures every day he was with her. She even drove out of her way to drop a toy off that I left over at her place. She is the best!”
“Natalie was great! She took wonderful care of our dog, Nutmeg, a 30 pound female mutt. Nutmeg especially enjoyed playing in Natalie’s big back yard and getting to know Natalie’s dog. Natalie took our dog for walks and sent photos every day, which we appreciated. Also, Nutmeg seems calmer after spending time at Natalie’s. We hope to book again.”
“My puppy's stay with Austin was fantastic, and he took amazing care of her. This was her first time staying with anyone but family, and Austin was incredibly patient with her and her adjustments to a new environment. I got pictures and updates every day, and she got amazing personal attention and care. I would definitely recommend Austin.”
“This is Elsa’ s 4th or 5th visit with Erika. I have at least 4 more trips this year- she is great about staying in touch and Elsa has started to get excited when She sees where we are.”
“Alexis was amazing! Her son and their dog welcomed Snowball and they treated her like their own. It was our dogs first time sleeping over with someone other than us and we couldn't have asked for a more loving family. The daily updates with pictures was just the icing on the cake.”
“Julie and Josiah were wonderful! Their dog Nova is super friendly and played so well with our golden. They kept us informed on how things were going, sent pictures and made the overall experience seamless. We look forward to booking with them again!!”

“Bowman was pleasant and seemed to carry out the tasks we agreed upon. Communication was succinct. I would have preferred more detailed updates and I’m sure he could do that if requested.”
“Abbey was absolutely wonderful! She did drop-in visits for our three cats. Very communicative, kind and caring. I would definitely entrust her with the care of our fur babies again in the future. :)”
“Kait was so great with our two kittens! She gave us detailed summaries of each visit with many pictures. She gave them so much love and attention, we would definitely recommend kait and have her take care of our kitties again!”
About: I’ve been fostering litters through rescues since 2021! I have experience with everything from pregnant kitties, newborn babies/birth, and elderly cats! I also have experience administering oral medication, cleaning litter boxes like you’ve never seen them cleaned, and best of all snuggling and playing with the babies :) even if all they want is to stay far away from me, I’ll love them just the same ♥️ I’d love to take care of your cat!
“I have been stressing about finding a cat sitter that could meet Ginger’s medical needs. Gingers very easygoing considering my other two shy & spicy babies, Clover & Koko respectively. But a lot of people & special needs cat boarding facilities were aphrenrsive about giving a cat 0.25 mL of medicine once a day for 2 different medications. Thanks again Sophia for taking care of my girls!”
“Brianna was absolutely amazing with my cat Tasha! She made sure she was fed, happy and gave her some additional playtime each day! I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Stephanie did a great job at caring for my 3 y/o cat while i was away for a few weeks! She performed her tasks independently, skillfully navigating my building/apartment's modern technology. I would love to have her again.”
About: I’m just a guy who loves pets and loves walking! I currently have a sweet Bernese Mountain Dog named Heidi who’s almost 2 and a quirky Exotic Shorthair cat named Humphrey who’s 6! I grew up with cats so I’ve been taking care of cats my whole life. I’m known for being a very responsible and responsive person. You can trust me to take care of your pets without worry. I’m doing this as a side gig as I have a full time job so I prefer to keep my gigs within my neighborhood (Hillwood) or nearby and outside of normal working hours (8 am to 5 pm) but I can be flexible with enough of a heads up. To be completely honest, I have never “professionally” cared for pets, so if your pets require special care, I will probably not be your best choice. I’m not trained in performing special care on any animals. However, if you just need someone responsible and relatively cheap to check in on your pets, I’m your guy! If your pets like friends then I can bring Heidi or Humphrey with as well!
“Taylor was very nice and updated us all the time regarding our kitties, she also wanna make sure if they eaten and ask us regarding that. its my first time using this and I’m very satisfied.”
About: I am the proud aunt of two rescue cats, Yuri and Pepper! I’ve been to go-to pet sitter for them ever since my sister brought them home. Cats are so often misunderstood, so I think it’s incredibly important they are cared for by someone who knows and loves cats. I have learned from years of caring for my own and other’s cats how to look for body cues to know whether they want space or cuddles. I promise to provide your cat the absolute best care and provide as many updates as you need to maintain peace of mind. From special diets to medication, I will adapt to your cat’s needs.
“Kristian was very attentive and kept me updated when she checked in on my two cats! They were happy and clean, the best thing to come home to after a trip.”
“I’m so happy we found Nicole! She did a wonderful job watching our cat. It was our first time leaving her for longer than a night at the house and Nicole reassured us she was being well taken care of with food, pets, and play time! It was evident in the pictures our kitty took a strong liking to Nicole!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Belle Meade

“Robin was amazing. Attentive and communicated well. She kept my pup super active while she had her and went above expectation of what was asked. Thank you so much!”
“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: Dogs and cats are the center of my world! I have over 11 years of paid and volunteered hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets, including my own animals and those I’ve fostered through rescue organizations. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life but over the past 11 years I have volunteered at various animal shelters and provided the services offered on Rover through word-of-mouth and other platforms/websites! I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages—from newborns to seniors—and pets with medical conditions, special needs, and behavioral challenges. I also have experience with birds, rabbits, and some reptiles. My family owns a farm so I have experience providing care for farm animals as well! What sets me apart is my ability to quickly assess and adapt to each pet’s unique personality and requirements. I’m especially patient and attentive with nervous or reactive animals, and I’m experienced in administering medications, maintaining structured routines, and creating calm, secure environments for animals in transition. AND I just might take the cutest/funniest candid photos of your pet that you’ve ever seen. Check out my photo gallery of cute fur babies I’ve loved on! Fostering has also given me valuable experience with socialization, basic training, post-surgery care, and working with pets recovering from trauma or neglect. I genuinely love building trust with animals and helping them feel safe, which is something pet owners consistently appreciate when they leave their companions in my care. IMPORTANT NOTES: *House sitting is a great way to ensure your pet has companionship in addition to having their physical needs met (food, water, bathroom etc.) Please note that house sitting and constant care are two separate services. Constant care (aka 24/7 house sitting) means that I would only leave your pet in the event of a genuine emergency. Otherwise, all of my time will be spent at your home caring for your pet. This is priced at an hourly rate, which will vary case by case. For traditional house sitting, we will discuss a plan that you’re comfortable with for how often I will leave your pet(s), and how long they will be left alone. If your request is well in advance of the stay, I can most likely adjust my schedule to focus more on your pet(s) if needed. Please vocalize your wants, needs, and expectations. **Meet and greets strongly suggested/required in some cases if: A) You have a pet with extreme anxiety, behavioral issues, or unknown reactions to being left in the care of a new person. B) You live in an apartment complex—mainly if you feel or have been told that your complex is difficult to navigate. I don’t want a large chunk of the visit to be spent trying to fI want to be spending as much time with your pet as possible! C) You have particularly unique and/or specific preferences for your pet’s care. I love detailed instructions—actually, I prefer you share as many details with me as you’d like. No one has ever bothered me with too many details/instructions! I would love to get a feel for and see what this will look like during the meet and greet. ***as of 2/20/26 I will have moved from Franklin, TN 37069 to Nashville, TN 37215. My ability to continue services with repeat clients from before that date (without an additional distance fee) is contingent on driving time to your location. **** if you find any part of the booking is not meeting your standards/expectations, please communicate this to me so I can adjust the issue or potentially request a refund via customer support for that visit. I strive to individualize care per your requests in order to effectively meet the needs of every client. Furthermore, I want my clients to always feel heard and supported. *****Boarding and day care information if you have a medium to XL size dog, pets who don’t react well to cats, and/or you prefer a yard and extensive exercise during the booking: My family owns a large property and farm about 10 minutes from my apartment. I am able to stay there in their guest house with your pets rather than board them at my apartment. That’s why it says I live in Greenhills yet also have a yard/fence, and live on a farm. This is honestly preferable for any large dog who are guarded/activated around other dogs. Like most apartment complexes, my complex is heavily populated by dog owners and we would encounter other dogs each time we go outside. That being said, I can still board larger and/or reactive dogs, dogs who don’t mix well with cats, and dogs requiring extra exercise. We would just be staying on the farm! ____________ More about me (if you’re curious): -Outside of pet care I am a licensed social worker (non-practicing at the moment) and a part time esthetician student. My social work career mostly includes providing individual or group mental health therapy, and case management for individuals experiencing homelessness, previously incarcerated, and/or with mental health and substance use disorders. As you can probably imagine, shifting towards Rover and esthetician school has been a major change! -During my free time I love working out—Pilates, barre, & running/walking. I’m relatively athletic so I can provide exercise tailored to each pet’s needs. With pets whose owners would prefer more exercise, I am able to provide more fast paced exercise, such as speed walking or jogging. And you’ll never have to worry if your dog happens to be a larger dog and/or pulls on the leash. Still haven’t met a dog I haven’t been able to walk! -I’m very big on volunteer work since I am not currently practicing social work. I have a very nurturing side, and while I’m so excited to become an esthetician, I would love to still be engaged in service of others. Right now I am developing an outline for a “pay what you can” farm-to-table service using the products of my family’s farm. Also in progress is an incorporation of my skincare, beauty, and wellness services into a larger ministry that serves survivors of trafficking, addiction, and/or DV. -During my free time I also enjoy binging thrillers and crime dramas during my free time. I’ve been getting into true crime podcasts. So yes, I’ll most likely be listening to Dateline while driving to our meet and greet at your house when I’ve never met you before. As if I need to be any more nervous about that part of this job! Happy to do it though. I love this job. But if you do happen to want to meet at a dog park or coffee place, I won’t object! - I’m a Nashville native and the oldest of four kids in my family. I’m a bit of an extroverted introvert. I enjoy my alone time and being home as much as possible. But if you bring me around social situations, I could talk to just about anyone about anything. - I have a kitten, young adult kitty, and a senior cat living with me full time. I have a senior (family) dog living with me only a few months out of the year when my parents snowbird in Florida. However, due to his recent decline in health/mobility, he most likely won’t be living with me in Winter 2026, unfortunately. I commute to a night school M-Th 5:30pm-10pm and work another job remotely. A few days each month, I work in person and won’t have much availability on those days. I typically know my schedule 1-3 weeks out, so scheduling conflicts are adjustable if I’m already available for the majority of the booking. Last minute bookings are typically contingent on flexibility and/or my being available without having to cancel appointments or compromise the quality of another pre-existing booking. Rover is my main obligation outside of school. I prioritize my rover bookings over most things. Alongside client satisfaction, self-care is imperative to me. While I am finishing school over the next few months, I typically will not accept early morning bookings unless there is flexibility with the times. However, I am able to offer late night visits on days off from school due to my routine sleep schedule. Quite a few of my repeat clients work night shifts and I’ve provided care for their pets between 11pm-4am. I try to avoid committing to any visits after 4am and before 10am so that I can keep a consistent sleep schedule, and be punctual for you! When caring for pets, safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions from the owner, including dietary needs, medications, walking preferences, and any behavioral considerations. I have gained a good amount of experience over the last few years in the area of taking care of senior pets and pre-adoption pets. My pup, Pasco, is currently receiving medications and palliative care, so I have personally experience in this area. Before adopting my kitten, Ocean, I recently fostered three pre-adopted kittens that needed bottle-feeding and gentle help with passing stool. I make sure the home environment is pet-proofed—keeping hazards like wires, cleaning products, and choking risks out of reach. I also monitor pets closely for any signs of distress, illness, or unusual behavior and will notify the owner immediately if anything seems off. Building trust with both the pet and their owner is equally important. I take time to get to know each animal’s temperament, routines, and comfort zones so they feel safe and secure in my presence. Whether in my home or theirs, I maintain a calm, structured environment, offer plenty of positive attention, and create a consistent routine that pets can rely on. Regarding trust and safety, as a sitter I also request that you disclose any video and/or audio surveillance inside your home before officially booking with me. It goes against Rover’s guidelines (and federal law) to not disclose indoor surveillance. I recognize that it is part of today’s culture to have at least some form of video surveillance on one’s property. 90% of clients I work with have some form of video surveillance. As an owner myself, who also hires Rover sitters to care for my pets, I understand there’s an element of trust that has not yet been built, in addition to the general security concerns associated with being out of town. I am not against video surveillance and wouldn’t turn away a client for having a couple cameras. However, excessive surveillance throughout the inside of your home is not something I’m comfortable with, personally. I have no doubt you’ll find someone who doesn’t mind, but I am not that person. For in-home services, I’m respectful of the client’s space—leaving things clean and secure, and keeping communication open with daily updates, photos, and check-ins so the owner feels confident their pet is in good hands.
“Melissa was so good with Blue. He played well with Hudson and she sends lots of photos and updates. Her yard is the best we have ever experienced. Both her front and backyard are fully fenced with lots of shade and room to run and play. I will definitely be leaving Blue with Melissa and Hudson again.”
“Enzo seems to have had a great time with Jonathan! Would definitely do it again in the future. Jonathan was responsive and answered any questions we had.”
“Elizabeth was so great with our dog and her dog George was a great playmate with Mila! She kept me informed throughout the day and sent us a great video. Looks like they had a photoshoot as the rover card had great pictures. Highly recommend!”
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!
“Xue was great, Hoochu immediately loved her! She was very good at communicating everything and she was able to take care of him even though it was a very short notice. I will definitely book with her again!!”
About: Hi everyone, I’m Bre! I tried Rover briefly back in 2022 before becoming a full-time foster dog mom. I’m excited to give it another try! I work a normal Monday-Friday office job but I work next door to my apartment community! So I can walk over to take dogs on walks multiple times a day. My fiancé works from home so he will be there all day as well. Pets are my favorite roommates! I live in a beautiful apartment community that’s full of dogs. I do have permission to dog sit from management! Dogs are welcome to free roam my apartment
“Ginger loved Kathy and so did I. Ginger is a rescue dog and this was her first experience away from our home. This was also my first experience with Rover. I was extremely pleased!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I love dogs of all sizes. We have two black labs and a shepherd mix. We also have a cat and several aquatic creatures. I’m currently working part time from home and have plenty of free time to care for your pets. My schedule is fairly flexible and I look forward to meeting your furry friends! I’m very detail-oriented and happy to follow your instructions for the best care for your pets. I love walking so happy to do neighborhood walks or hit the local hiking trails or dog parks.
“Terri Jo did a great job taking care of Murphy for several hours on Saturday and Sunday. Murphy caused some problems by barking at Terri Jo's cats, but she solved the problem by separating them. Murphy loved playing with Terri Jo's dog, Daisy. Terri Jo was flexible in accommodating our schedule. It was a good experience for us.”
“Taylor is amazing!!! She genuinely cared for Jackson. He was really sad when we left and she made him feel loved. When we returned, we could tell he had a great time with Taylor. We knew he trusted her when Taylor sent a picture of Jackson napping and he was lying upside down. He only does that when he trusts people. We will definitely reach out to Taylor again for day care.”
About: Hi! It’s so great to meet you 👋🏼 I go by Carly and I have a sweet doodle of my own. I have loved taking care of doggies and their homes for the last 9 years and I take pride in providing the best care for your sweet pet. It’s been so wonderful to see that appreciation reflected in each of my clients. I work from home and am typically always with your pup! I know that traveling can be stressful and I truly love making it as peaceful and easiest as possible. I communicate as much as desired so you can be rest assured that your beloved pet is in safe hands. I have a home with a large fenced in backyard that makes it doggy paradise! I work from home full time with a super flexible schedule, which means I have a lot of freedom and flexibility to work around your wishes and your pet’s needs.

Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Bowman has been great walking our dog. He is very responsive and conscientious. One day he did not have an access code he needed so he sent me a message. I was in a meeting so unable to respond right away. It was about 20 minutes until I was able to get back to him, so I assumed he'd left. He was still waiting and got my pup's walk in! I would highly recommend him for taking care of your fur babies. :)”
“Samantha did a drop-in visits with lily and she was absolutely fantastic! Kept me up to date the entire time and made sure lily was exercised and loved on. I will definitely be using her again and again!!!”
“Carey was very attentive, taking notes before walking my pup and was very communicative throughout! My dog was very happy after and I could tell she was well cared for! Highly recommend!”
“Kayla is a trustworthy and reliable dog walker 😊 She always provides picture updates and lets me know how Theo does on his walks! She seems to really care about Theo, so I know he is in good hands. I highly recommend her!”
“Andressa is the best! Our first time using her. Aretha and Buddy love her. Such wonderful pics and info. We will definitely ask for her services again!’”
“Kait is AMAZING. She came to the rescue with a last minute dog walking request and my pup LOVED her. She took so many photos, left a detailed report, and was super communicative and responsive. I can’t wait to book another walk with her in the future so that my dog can see his new friend!”
About: Need a flexible, helping hand for your beloved fur-babies? I'm your gal! I grew up with dogs, and have years of experience pet-sitting for dogs, cats, rabbits, and even ferrets! :) I love all animals & open to new ones too (minus snakes). During the school year, I work FT at an elementary school, but I love to petsit during my summers off—but I am still available during the school year, after school hours and weekends. During the summer, I’m off of work (I work at an elementary school) so I’m flexible when it comes to dropping in or spending time with your pet! I'm available FT during July through the beginning of August, until school begins. After that, my availability changes to after school hours and weekends. Whether it’s a drop in for food, walks, or cuddles, or if your need is me staying overnight—I’m open! I am available to do drop ins or overnight stays with your pet, depending on your need. I’ve done both and can do multiple check-in for feedings, walks, etc. during the day. And/or staying overnight with them if you’re out of town!
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and have cared for animals my whole life. I’m comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining a clean environment. I’ve cared for pets with a range of personalities, including those who are shy or anxious, and I always prioritize making them feel safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs and routines and treat every animal like my own. I am currently a grad student with a pretty flexible schedule! I am available most weekdays after 2 pm and all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific care needs so your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection!! I also keep your home clean and am happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I care for pets the same way I care for my own family, with patience, reliability, and real affection. I pay close attention to the details that matter to each pet such as favorite toys, routines, quirks, energy levels, or comfort needs. I am especially good with puppies who need extra guidance and consistency and with senior pets who benefit from a slower pace and a gentle touch. I make it a priority to communicate with you often so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel at ease while you are away. What truly sets me apart is the combination of responsibility and genuine love behind everything I do which helps pets feel comfortable, understood, and cared for every moment they are with me. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already build my days around structure and responsibility as a Lipscomb student. My class schedule gives me plenty of flexibility for regular walks, feeding times, play breaks, and check ins. I enjoy starting my mornings with movement, so taking pets out early fits perfectly. I also have long breaks between classes which allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day. On weekends I am even more available, so I can focus fully on longer walks, outings, and extra attention. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, so it feels like a natural and fulfilling part of my everyday routine. I live in an apartment that is clean, comfortable, and set up to be a safe space for pets. When caring for pets in my home I follow whatever routines they are used to, keep their environment calm, and make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I am mindful of their comfort and always keep their feeding, crate, and potty schedules consistent with what they know. When I am caring for pets in a client’s home I make sure to respect their space and follow their established routines exactly. I keep everything clean, stick to the instructions you provide, and give your pet the same level of love and attention they would get if you were home. Whether I am in my own apartment or in your home my focus is always on making your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for.
About: I've had dogs most of my life and handled every dog emergency there is. I have kind and gentle nature and have lot's of experience both pups that have endless energy and older dogs that need a little more help. I work part time from home helping women who are caring for their parents so I'm very flexible and can often even change my schedule to fit yours. I feel strongly that the advantage of having pet care in your home is that they get to keep their routine! So my rule is follow instructions while making sure they feel safe and loved.
About: I am a work-from-home (dog) mom. I have two Australian Shepherds, who I have raised since they were both 8 weeks old, so I have experience with very high energy dogs/puppies. They are very well behaved with other dogs, and love to socialize. I have always grown up with dogs since I was 4 years old, and couldn’t imagine not having a dog at any age. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am able to give constant attention throughout the day, including regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and feeding! Since I am home a lot of the time, pets are not alone for long periods of time. I also love to stay active, so walks & outdoor time are regular parts of my day. At home, I create a safe, comfortable and low-stress environment. With my two dogs, I often watch my best friend’s dog, so I am very used to managing multiple dogs. I also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. If a clients dog prefers its own time/space, I can accommodate due to having multiple floors/rooms in my home for separation. When caring for a clients dog in their home, I’m very respectful of their space and stick to the schedule I am told. I also provide updates such as photos and videos so the owner is more comfortable!
About: Growing up, I’ve always been around animals and caring for pets. I had a corgi named Mickey, a bunny rabbit named Kiki, a German shepherd/hound mix rescue named Bailey, and a dachshund/terrier mix named Cinnamon. I’ve also helped house sit and care for my siblings’ dogs many times, including a shorkie mix named Oakley and a goldendoodle named Ranger. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I work full-time during the week, but I am available for pet care before and after work, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. I maintain a stable schedule and can provide reliable, consistent care while ensuring pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, and companionship. I pride myself on being responsive, communicative, and treating every pet as if they were my own I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel comfortable and confident leaving their pets in someone else’s care. I always prioritize safety, patience, and consistency while following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in a client’s home or during house sitting, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and supervision so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog owner and animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs. While attending the University of Georgia, I volunteer with the Athens Area Humane Society, where I’ve worked with dogs of different breeds, temperaments, and needs. A few summers ago, I helped care for a foster dog during labor and was involved in raising, socializing, and training her puppies from birth. I’m patient, responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals! I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐾💕 Pet care fits into my routine really naturally! I’m used to being around animals and I genuinely love taking care of them. I make time every day for feeding, walks, play, and just giving them attention and comfort so they feel happy and safe. I’m also a UGA student home for the summer, super flexible with my schedule, and I can usually help whenever needed, even last minute. I don’t provide care in my own home, but when I’m in a client’s home I just try to keep everything super consistent and comfortable for their pet. I follow whatever routine the owner already has set (feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, all of it) and I’m really big on giving them attention so they don’t feel stressed or alone. I’m very patient and I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away!
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I have 5 dogs of my own and absolutely love dogs. I know how to work well with young dogs and senior dogs. I’m currently on summer break from college. I have a lot of free time during the days and absolutely love dogs and taking care of them. As someone who has experience caring for multiple dogs of different ages and personalities, I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to laid-back senior dogs. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, secure, and stress-free.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for all of my years! Strays became pets and like family. My main experience is with small to medium sized dogs and caring for kittens to senior cats. I recently lost an 18 year old cat who had been diabetic for 10 years and I gave him insulin twice a day. I have experience with giving medication pills, fluids and shots. I love my animals like babies and will for yours too! I run an online clothing reselling business which is very flexible, so I can be at your pets appointment timely and ready for their undivided attention! I can visit your home for your dog or cat as often as needed, get a good walk in and get lots of play time together!

“I am very thankful for Christopher. He was available last minute to dogsit my baby Bruno. He also had a dog himself that my dog could play with and when I picked him up I could tell that my dog enjoyed himself and had a good time. He also was very communicative during the stay and provided updates with pictures. Thank you very much for taking care of my baby and providing him a good experience. I Would definitely use him again and I 100% recommend him to anyone needing a dog sitter. Thank you again Christopher!!”
“We are new puppy owners and boarded our dog for the first overnight stay with Marissa. Marissa was wonderful and so caring to our sweet puppy who had some separation anxiety. Would 100% referral her to others as drop off/pick up was easy and her communication was fantastic. We are using her again in a few weeks so now will be a repeat customer.”
“Janelle continues to be a safe, calm, caring individual where I can feel comfortable allowing my little one 🐾🐕🦺 to stay when I have to go away for some time. I super appreciate her always providing the best support and care for Storm. Always very communicative, flexible and kind. Thank you so much for keeping Storm safe.”
“My pup can be a little anxious around new people but she warmed up to Janey right away. Janey took great care of her and sent updates everyday. Could travel easy knowing she was in good hands!”
“This is the second time Ashley has watched my dog and he absolutely adores her. She is very quick at responding and sent pictures every day he was with her. She even drove out of her way to drop a toy off that I left over at her place. She is the best!”
“My puppy's stay with Austin was fantastic, and he took amazing care of her. This was her first time staying with anyone but family, and Austin was incredibly patient with her and her adjustments to a new environment. I got pictures and updates every day, and she got amazing personal attention and care. I would definitely recommend Austin.”
“This is Elsa’ s 4th or 5th visit with Erika. I have at least 4 more trips this year- she is great about staying in touch and Elsa has started to get excited when She sees where we are.”
“Alexis was amazing! Her son and their dog welcomed Snowball and they treated her like their own. It was our dogs first time sleeping over with someone other than us and we couldn't have asked for a more loving family. The daily updates with pictures was just the icing on the cake.”
“Julie and Josiah were wonderful! Their dog Nova is super friendly and played so well with our golden. They kept us informed on how things were going, sent pictures and made the overall experience seamless. We look forward to booking with them again!!”
“Stella had a great time with hunter. He was very easy to schedule with and worked with me since I got back late from my trip. He also sent pictures of Stella having a great time each day.”
“Michelle and Bryce were great with Buster. Quick and friendly communication before and during his stay. They sent pictures every day that showed him making himself right at home. I could tell he was well cared for and enjoyed his stay. Would definitely use them again.”
“Jonathan is spot on in his profile when he says he won't be the cheapest option but he's the most valuable option. He's a professional when it comes to working with animals and not just a guy offering up his place for some extra cash (not that there's anything wrong with that). He took our two Goldendoodles for a five day boarding stay and they loved it. We initially did a meet & greet and then did a daycare day a week before boarding so the dogs got to know him a bit before hand. They were so excited to go back when we dropped them off for boarding which gave us such peace of mind leaving for our trip. We will definitely use Jonathan again.”
“I just adopted a new pup two weeks ago and had to leave town for a night, so I tried Rover for the first time after seeing Nadyne’s amazing reviews. Truly a 500/10 experience. I can’t imagine boarding my girl again! From the start, the love and care were so evident. Drop-off and pick-up were easy, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating with my travel times. The frequent updates and pictures put my dog mom heart at ease, and seeing my pup make herself at home so quickly (even hopping on Nadyne’s bed!) reassured me she felt safe and happy. Nadyne treated her like her own, from running errands, going to dinner, and even helping her socialize confidently with a bigger dog. I’m beyond grateful for such a perfect first experience. I’ll absolutely be booking again. She’s the best!!!!”
“Rachael was super nice and very responsive. Great fenced backyard oasis for my dog pepper. Also a cute neighborhood for walks. Pepper was so excited and happy when we picked her up! Will definitely work with Rachael again!!!”
“John was amazing with Theo! He was very flexible with timing and care instructions. He sent videos everyday and made sure Theo got all the love and exercise. We would definitely use John again.”
“Zitian was very pleasant to work with. He took great care of my six puppy while we were on a long road trip and did not have any access to my regular sitters. I’ll definitely use him again the next time I’m in Nashville”
“My pup had the best time with Madeline! He came home happy and sleepy and enjoyed lots of walks and cuddles. He gets anxious when I board him and Madeline did such a good job making sure he was cozy.”
