Personalized care for your dog or cat - Burns
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Burns
“I was so nervous about leaving our lab-mix but once we got there, he was immediately comfortable and completely made himself at home. He had the best time playing with the other dogs and kids and I enjoyed getting the pictures and videos of it. They treated him just like their own! Victoria & Michael will definitely be who we use from now on!”
“Our pup was so well taken care of while staying with Bailie! She was thoughtful enough to send us messages complete with pictures daily. When we saw his big smile we knew we had found the best friend/sitter for our pup.”
“Huri was absolutely amazing with Maverick! He tends to get pretty anxious when he’s away from me and often won’t eat, but he was so comfortable with her that he ate all of his food — which says everything. Huri kept me updated throughout his stay with thoughtful messages and plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she truly cared about him and made him feel safe and at home. I can’t recommend her enough and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Angie took wonderful care of my 9-year-old pup for a week. Our boy is typically anxious at sitters’ homes, but not with Angie! The calm vibe at her house suited him perfectly, and he came home so happy. We appreciated her”
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care my dogs received from Lisa! They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. Lisa made sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention — even making sure they got a quick walk after the rain. Communication was smooth throughout, and I felt totally at ease while I was away. I’d absolutely trust her again for future stays. Highly recommend!”
“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!!”
“Lavar & Amber provided me with wonderful photos of our dog having fun or enjoying a good ear rub. This service made me feel good about making the choice to leave our pup with them. Look forward to booking with them again!”
“Alexis and her husband were wonderful!! They were so interactive with our dog, giving us updates and sending pictures daily. Our dog enjoyed playing and hanging out with their sweet dog. He got plenty of attention, cuddles, and FUN. He was so well taken care of. Thank you for hosting Ube!”
“We are so thankful we found Deborah. Our pup had the best time and came home so happy. Deborah sent regular pictures and updates and made us feel at ease that our girl was being taken care of :)”
“Kortney was amazing. She tooksuch great care of my handsome boy over the few days he stayed with her that he was sad to leave her. I'm absolutely going to plan play dates with her and definitely rebook. I received pictures, video, and updates about him. I was very happy with her and her service.”
“Jamie took great care of our dog Rocky this week. She was kind enough to offer a meet and greet, and then was flexible to change the date when the weather wasn’t cooperating. Jamie sent daily updates with photos. Rocky enjoyed playing with Jamie’s dogs and her other boarding pups. She seemed to feel at home with Jamie and her family. We will definitely rebook with Jamie in the future.”
“Brian and his family were excellent caregivers for Rex while we were gone. They sent frequent pictures and text updates to let us know how he was. Plus, Rex loved them and wanted to be by their side, which is a great sign! The large piece of property was perfect for Rex to run around and get some exercise. We would definitely choose them to watch him again! Highly recommended!”
“Ritch and his family are exactly what you hope for when needing to have someone look after your pet. They took such great care of my dog Arya, and sent me picture updates every day. I’m so thankful for the love they showed to my pup, and would highly recommend them!”
“Will absolutely book again! Moneissa went above and beyond to accommodate my senior pitbull, Lola. She sent daily photos and updates of Lola enjoying the spacious, fenced-in backyard, which gave me so much peace of mind. Because Lola has mobility issues, Mo thoughtfully created a special setup in her home to support her needs and handled her daily medications and diaper changes with care. I’m incredibly grateful for the attention and compassion she showed—highly recommend!”

“Carly was great with our animals! She was very communicative. We forgot to update the instructions regarding the dose of one of our cat’s medication and she reached out to confirm before administering it to him. We appreciate her attention to detail!”
“Tammy came by to feed the cats and change their litter boxes while we were away. She was great with the cats, and very respectful of our home while we were away. She did a great job! We would not hesitate to hire her again.”
“We had an emergency situation a messaged Austin. He dropped everything Christmas Day and went to our house to feed, water and check on our fur babies. He sent updates and pictures every day and was incredibly kind and helpful. I recommend Austin with the highest rating.”
“This was the first time I have used a dog sitter instead of boarding my dog through a facility or leaving him with a family member. I just moved to Nashville and was very displeased with the local boarding facilities, and resorted to dog vacay. I was a little nervous at first, but Karri was great! She was very easy to get in touch with (text or call), had a very nice house and big back yard, and has a very warm spirit. I felt like I was dropping my dog off at my parents house for the weekend. She sent me texts daily with pictures of my pup to reassure me that he was being loved on and cared for. She was also VERY flexible, as I was stuck out of town for an extra day and night due to flight cancellations. Cooper seemed to love it at her house! I would 100% use her again!”
“Marissa did a great job house/cat sitting while we were away for a few days. She was punctual, communicated with us how things were going, and most importantly, took great care of our cat!!”

“WOW! Angie went above and beyond to make Honey's birthday at her house wonderful. She made homemade GF pumpkin cakes (after asking Honey's dietary needs), found party hats, and made it an absolute party. I was having a rough, stressful day, and the photos and updates Angie sent of Honey + Winnie celebrating made my whole day. We will continue trusting Angie with our fur babies!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and horses most of my life and just generally enjoy their company. I am familiar w administering meds, adept at noticing issues and detail oriented. I am available full time during the week at my home and can do morning and evening drop-ins as well. Overnight stays are available as well.

My home includes two kitty cats and one medium-sized gentle doodle who enjoys playing and snoozing depending on what your dog enjoys. :)
“Kellyn wad amazing! She sent me pictures during the process and kept me updated with everything! I even ran alittle late kept her updated with the situation and she was just amazing! Daisy got along with her dog! Love it! 10/10 reccomend!”
“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!”
“Ute was great proving day care for our new puppy. As he was in a new home and trying to adapt to life without his mom and littermates, Ute went the extra mile to attend to his needs as a young puppy. I highly recommend Ute!”
About: I have extensive experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, breeds, types, colors, and temperaments. I have owned dogs, cats, turtles, frogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and a lizard. (I once had a pet worm in an animal cracker box. I thought he would like living in a little zoo.) For 7 years I took care of my disabled mom as well as 5 dogs and 2 cats. During that time, I also worked as a foster volunteer for Music City Pug Rescue–most of which were geriatric surrenders whose owners had passed away or moved into a nursing facility. While I questioned my own sanity at the time, looking back now, those were some of the very best days of my life! Today I only have one dog, Marley, (my lucky charm rescue–a Tibetan Terrier who was just hours away from euthanasia when I saw his picture online) and I am renting my home. So while I can't board your pets, I am happy to take care of them at their own home! Sadly I have lost pets to terrible chronic illnesses like cancer and diabetes. I've been through two torn ACL surgeries, one hip surgery, blindness, deafness, and incontinence. My current pup, little Marley, has been paralyzed twice. The first time, I was able to afford an expensive back surgery. But when it happened again six months post-op, I rehabilitated him myself. Now, 6 years later, he's still walking! I thank God every morning and night for giving me another day with him. My experience caring for all of these dogs and their health problems means that I know how to care for their special needs. Whether it's taking a dog to weekly chemo treatments or giving him two shots of insulin each day, I am capable of caring for your pets and promise to do so just like they are my own. Whether it's for a few minutes, a few days, or even a few weeks, I would love to spoil your pet(s) with lots of hugs,and kisses. Not to mention walks, toys, fur brushings, head massages, playtimes, and treats–at your request, of course! Plu$, I am always willing to work with you on rates, so don't hesitate to make an offer. No matter the price, I promise to give you the best service possible. ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ I can design and 🧧 💰I can create a special GIFT CERTIFICATE for any of my services (final booking will be based on availability) I work from home and am free to pet sit, walk, feed, and take them on potty breaks throughout the day. While I only have availability to sit 41 dog at my home during the day, I am enabled to stay at your home for half an hour....or 24 -- or even a couple of weeks if that's what you need! (While I have extended stay rates listed, I am open to discussing long-term or permanent services, too. Just ask!) I do have a small dog and I take him with me everywhere. So if you do need someone for overnight services at your home, I will be bringing him with me. I will treat your canine and/or feline fur babies (or scaly ones!) just like they're my own. Likewise, I will care for your home with respect and with the utmost confidentiality. I can be as discreet as you need me to be, or I can take your pets to visit their friends if that's what you want me to do. For at-home pet sitting, I will meet with you and your pets beforehand to give you peace of mind. We can get as detailed as you want. Whether you give me a typed document outlining their care plan, or just hand me a key and tell me when to stop by, I am happy to accommodate you either way!
“Riley stayed all day with Kathy & her adorable dog Gracie. He was well cared for & was a happy boy when I picked him up. She was very professional, house was immaculste. Will definitely use them again soon. Barbara Lynn”
“Alexis and her family were wonderful with my 7 month old mini poodle pup. We ended up in a big jam and needed last minute day care for four days. I sent an inquiry at 8:30 the night before, and Alexis responded within a couple of minutes! She was also great at reporting in and sending photos. My pup was well cared for and had a wonderful time playing with their darling young son and sweet dog. Big thanks to Alexis and her terrific family!!”
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!
“Thank you so much Ashley for taking such amazing care of little Luigi! He genuinely gets so excited to come hangout with you and his fur friends. He can’t wait until next time!”
“Our dog Greta was so happy with Jamie! She was flexible with our varying hours and very helpful throughout. We’ll definitely book her again next time we’re in Franklin. You can’t go wrong choosing Jamie as your pet sitter.”
About: Hello! I’m a single mother currently looking for some extra income and I can’t think of a better way to do that than to do it with furry friends! I work from home, so that makes it really easy to care for an extra pet when I can. I currently have two cats in my home, and they have their own space, so if your dog is unsure with cats, that would not be a big issue. I grew up in a home that always had multiple cats and at least one dog at a time. I have experience working with dogs with special needs (blind & feeding issues), small dogs, large dogs, young dogs, puppies, and senior dogs. I currently work from home, so my days are pretty flexible for walks and drop-ins. Working from home also leaves great flexibility with boarding, and helps ensure that your dog(s) will never be left for long amounts of time! I have a small fenced in yard, though it does not include grass, I do have a very big field nearby, which I’d be happy to run around with a dog (leashed). I have two cats, both of which are friendly with other animals. I do have a young son, but he is very respectful of pets and is with his dad every other weekend.
“Fantastic!! They were SO good with our skittish dog, and were super communicative. We were coming from out of town on a family emergency, and were able to book with Erik at the last minute. We are so grateful for their five-star treatment of our pup while we spent time with loved ones.”

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

Plus, with my house sitting services, you can have peace of mind knowing your home is secure and well-maintained while you're away. It's a complete package of care for both your pets and your property. I currently do not have a job so I’m free everyday mostly.

About: I have been a lifelong dog owner, caring for multiple breeds including dachshunds, chocolate lab, beagle mixes, Doberman, Rhodesian ridgeback mix, and mini schnauzer. I have hands-on experience providing end-of-life care for a senior dog with osteosarcoma, demonstrating compassion and patience in difficult situations. Currently, I care for a 5-year-old neutered Doberman and an 8-year-old spayed Mini Schnauzer. My work-from-home schedule allows me a flexible schedule for your pet’s supervision. This deep personal experience, combined with my flexible availability ensures professional and cozy care tailored to each dog's needs. Since I work from home, taking care of dogs fits perfectly into my day. I’m able to check in on them frequently and give them plenty of breaks and playtime. I make sure they get regular exercise and lots of affection between work tasks. Because I’m home almost 24/7, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit each dog’s unique needs and routines, making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away. I ensure that all dogs are treated with love and respect. Letting them know they’re safe and that everything is okay while their humans are away is of utmost importance to me.
About: What sets me apart is my dependable, active, and caring approach to pet care. I'm used to creating routines, paying close attention to individual needs, and staying patient and consistent qualities that translate well to caring for pets. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or your senior pet needs a slower, gentler pace, I'll tailor my care to fit their personality and routine. I'm committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping owners informed with regular updates and photos. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own, so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. Pet care is part of my daily routine and fits naturally into my active lifestyle. I make time each day for feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure that any pets gets enough exercise and attention. As a personal trainer, I'm already used to maintaining a structured schedule, so caring for a pet is something I plan around my client sessions and workouts. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention. I make sure they always have fresh water, a clean environment, and lots of positive interaction. I'm happy to provide energetic pets with plenty of exercise while also respecting the needs of senior pets or those who prefer a slower pace. I treat every pet like they're part of my own family and keep owners updated with messages and photos so they have peace of mind while they're away.
About: I’v taken care of dogs since I was old enough to be responsible for them, around age 12. I was in charge of feeding our family dogs, walking them, and exercising them through intentional playtime. We had 3 dogs then, and now we own two. I enjoy going on long walks and hikes, and often take my dogs on hikes. I also enjoy a casual run, and I am happy to take dogs on runs as well! I just graduated from college, and I have a couple weeks available until I begin my job. I will start working as a Firefighter for the Franklin fire department on June 8. Once that starts, I will be available on most weekends and evenings to care for your pet! I am happy to walk or run your pet! I also offer pet-sitting. As a responsible student, with several years of families trusting me with babysitting, I can give you confidence that your home and pet will be cared for as if they were my own.

About: I have three pups of my own, (Roosevelt, 6 year old border collie, Sadie B, 5 year old dalmatian mix, and Chewbacca, 1 year old Carolina dog.) They are all rescues. I adore them, they are my babies. I would have many more if I had a farm and could talk my husband into it. I visit dog shelters regularly and become familiar with all the pups. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pups when you go out of town. Please contact me with your pet sitting needs.

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats the last 7 years. In a boarding and clinic environment. I have experience with every size dog and cat as well as medicine administration (oral or injection). I’m usually home with my fur babies unless I have to run errands. I might be gone up to 4 hours. When boarders are in my home I try to stay with them more until comfortable. Then if they are social can introduce my pack and slowly meet one by one. Eventually everyone will be able to be out and play. I have a fenced in front yard and fur babies to play with your pets. We have a variety of temperaments and ages, based on your pups body language I would probably have the right fit for them :) or they can also have alone time and be rotated out to avoid other dogs. I crate all my dogs at night before bed. I have cameras around my yard and outside the house for security as well.
About: I'm a big dog person, and I frequently take care of my family's dog while they're away. While I was in college, I often dog-sat for a family friend, staying in their home and taking care of their pet. I'm home for the summer before heading to graduate school, and would love to spend some time with animals! This summer, I am home for a while with completely open days. I'm happy to take on summer holidays or help with mid-day walks, etc. I love to let animals spend their time outside in a safe way, either with a fence or on a leash. I'm also happy to hang out indoors if the dog prefers, and ensure everything is taken care of!
About: Hi, I'm Marissa! I'm one of those people who, before I came out of my shell, spent more time with animals than people. Sometimes I still do. I've had dogs and cats all my life, and also rode horses starting just before I was 4. I have 7 years of experience on Rover and another 2 independently dog walking and sitting before that. I’ve cared for many kinds of dogs and cats, fish, turtles, donkeys, a family of racoons, and more. And I have a lot of experience caring for older animals and animals with medical conditions. I also used to volunteer with my mom transporting rescue dogs with Echo Dog White German Shepherd rescue. I am a homebody for the most part, so once I'm there I'm probably not going anywhere. My capital W Work is writing - I'm 13 years into an elven magic realism epic screenplay/novel series, it is my passion project and pet/housesitting gives me the time to tend to that vision, and fur babies to keep me company! Walking and playing with them keeps me active and in my beloved nature. It is a great joy to give people peace of mind while they travel, knowing their home and furbabies are in good hands. I know how stressful it can be - I was born in the Northeast and then moved to Nashville when I was 12 so my mom and I would drive up there to visit family, but we would often bring our dog and cats with us on that 13 hr ride because we didn’t have anyone we trusted to watch them. It’s a great time, unless it’s a family emergency. Now, I get to be that person for other people! My clients relaxing, knowing that they can have fun or do what needs doing and that their fur babies are taken care of at home - that is priceless and never gets old. If you have 3 or more pets, I'm happy to give a discount. I know how hard it can be trying to find care for them when you have many. Feel free to reach out! Pets are family. I will make sure they receive the best care possible! I'm a night owl myself when I'm home but whatever their routine is, I will stick to that as much as I can. For dogs, walks are included in housesitting if you want that. And any plant and garden care etc. Totally depends on your and your pet's needs. I'm so excited to look after your fur baby!

“I was so nervous about leaving our lab-mix but once we got there, he was immediately comfortable and completely made himself at home. He had the best time playing with the other dogs and kids and I enjoyed getting the pictures and videos of it. They treated him just like their own! Victoria & Michael will definitely be who we use from now on!”
“Our pup was so well taken care of while staying with Bailie! She was thoughtful enough to send us messages complete with pictures daily. When we saw his big smile we knew we had found the best friend/sitter for our pup.”
“Angie took wonderful care of my 9-year-old pup for a week. Our boy is typically anxious at sitters’ homes, but not with Angie! The calm vibe at her house suited him perfectly, and he came home so happy. We appreciated her”
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care my dogs received from Lisa! They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. Lisa made sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention — even making sure they got a quick walk after the rain. Communication was smooth throughout, and I felt totally at ease while I was away. I’d absolutely trust her again for future stays. Highly recommend!”
“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!!”
“Alexis and her husband were wonderful!! They were so interactive with our dog, giving us updates and sending pictures daily. Our dog enjoyed playing and hanging out with their sweet dog. He got plenty of attention, cuddles, and FUN. He was so well taken care of. Thank you for hosting Ube!”
“Kortney was amazing. She tooksuch great care of my handsome boy over the few days he stayed with her that he was sad to leave her. I'm absolutely going to plan play dates with her and definitely rebook. I received pictures, video, and updates about him. I was very happy with her and her service.”
“Jamie took great care of our dog Rocky this week. She was kind enough to offer a meet and greet, and then was flexible to change the date when the weather wasn’t cooperating. Jamie sent daily updates with photos. Rocky enjoyed playing with Jamie’s dogs and her other boarding pups. She seemed to feel at home with Jamie and her family. We will definitely rebook with Jamie in the future.”
“Brian and his family were excellent caregivers for Rex while we were gone. They sent frequent pictures and text updates to let us know how he was. Plus, Rex loved them and wanted to be by their side, which is a great sign! The large piece of property was perfect for Rex to run around and get some exercise. We would definitely choose them to watch him again! Highly recommended!”
“Ritch and his family are exactly what you hope for when needing to have someone look after your pet. They took such great care of my dog Arya, and sent me picture updates every day. I’m so thankful for the love they showed to my pup, and would highly recommend them!”
“Will absolutely book again! Moneissa went above and beyond to accommodate my senior pitbull, Lola. She sent daily photos and updates of Lola enjoying the spacious, fenced-in backyard, which gave me so much peace of mind. Because Lola has mobility issues, Mo thoughtfully created a special setup in her home to support her needs and handled her daily medications and diaper changes with care. I’m incredibly grateful for the attention and compassion she showed—highly recommend!”
“Marisa was super nice working with us. We had a snow and ice storm the day before we left. She made arrangements for us so we didn’t miss our trip. Coco did well with her.”
“Dolly always has the best time with Kellyn! Kellyn is so kind and thoughtful. Dolly loves playing with Kellyn’s dog and we love that Dolly gets that socialization with another dog while we are away since she is an only dog at home. Kellyn is so good at sending us pictures and updating us on how Dolly is doing. We so appreciate having such a wonderful sitter for Dolly.”
“Suzy was amazing and took great care of my baby! We had such a wonderful experience! Eugene stayed over the 4th of July weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She made sure he got his ear medication every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious she genuinely cared about him, and I felt completely confident that he was safe, happy, and well taken care of. He had the best time playing outside and came home tired in the best way. I would absolutely trust her with Eugene again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”
“Ariana was awesome! Sent pictures of Yona with her Aussies daily! I could tell Yona had such a great time! I would definitely recommend Ariana to anyone looking for someone to watch their pup! Thanks so much Ariana!”
