“Mariah did an up front meet & greet to be certain our dog would be comfortable with her and her dogs. She sent us daily pics and updates, and treated our dog like one of her own.”
“Melanie and James were fantastic with Jax! Jax made himself at home soon after my boyfriend and I left. Melanie and James are very personable people. We will definitely book with them again if/when the need arises.”
“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!”
“Regina was so helpful. I had a very late notice request, and Regina was willing to work with me to make sure my doggy was well taken care of. Made sure to send me pics and videos of my dog. 10/10 would recommend and will be using her again!!! Thank you so much, Regina!”
“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.”
“Jenn and Derek took real good care of Penny while I was visiting TN . Penny had a blast. She was safe and well cared. I received updates on her frequently including pictures of her and the activities she did. She looked like she was home. Great job. Well done. I would recommend your services. Thank you Jenn and Derek. Great team work.”
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.
“Cindy is the best! Roscoe is a very anxious black lab but she made him feel like he was home. She communicates well and sends pictures often. First time we’ve left Roscoe and didn’t worry one time about him. She’s the best! Thank you Cindy!”
“Bethany and her family are the best place by far to leave your dog! She was able to accommodate us last minute for a long stay. Our puppy is only 4 months old and did wonderfully there. She kept up on her routine and helped train her in other areas. She also sent daily pictures and videos for our kids to see. Can’t say enough good things about her.”
“You will find yourself very fortunate if you are able to book Drew for pet sitting. Her experience and knowledge of pet behavior really helped set my mind at ease. I just moved to the area from Colorado and I have a senior dog that has been my companion and has gone everywhere with me for the last 10 years. She is an indoor dog used to be pampered. This is the first time I was unable to take her on a road trip with me. You can imagine my stress, apprehension and uncertainty to leave her with someone I had just met. During my meet and greet session with Drew I had a new sense of reassurance. She listened to me validated me and followed all my instructions. She communicated with me several times a day including photos & videos. Drew was flexible with me during my uncertain schedule. My dog was taken care of very well. Drew was able to adjust to any issues that came up quickly and appropriately. She was also competent & confident administering medication’s as needed for my dog. I would highly recommend Drew for your pet sitting needs. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about animals. I enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet like my own and always try to give them the attention and care they deserve. Additionally, I have a prosthetic leg, which has made me more adaptable, patient, and attentive in everything I do. It’s taught me how to approach situations with care and awareness qualities that carry over into how I care for animals every day. I’m a Tennessee Tech student, and since I don’t have classes in the afternoons, I have a lot of availability to care for pets. I’m dependable, patient, and I like making sure pets stay active, comfortable, and on their normal routine while their owner is away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, fresh water, walks or bathroom breaks, and time to play. I also spend time with them so they feel comfortable and not alone while their owner is away.

“Having to organize last minute sitter for Chloe, I was referred to Rover and Laree was the sitter we selected. Being away on business travel, I had little time to connect with Chloe, Laree was kind and above service by sending me a picture each day, this gave me a peace of mind. Thank you ❤️. Kau”

“Hayley is the best. My cat loves her and she keeps me posted about him daily during her visits. I have recommended her to a friend and will continue to recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter”
“Jenn is an excellent pet sitter! She checked in on my cats twice a day while I was out of town, and she took care of every little detail including meals and litter boxes. At the last minute, one of my cats needed to be given medication twice a day so Jenn took care of that too. Throughout the entire process, she was easy to communicate with and incredibly detail-oriented. I really appreciate how easy it was to book her services, and I plan to book her again in the future. I would recommend Jenn to anyone who needs help with their pets.”
“Mariah did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my 3 cats. She provided updates daily and sent pictures when cat made an appearance. I will definitely use Mariah next time my 3 cats need a babysitter.”
“Wendy house sat and fed the cats in the morning and evening. I think the cats were happier with Wendy staying overnight. Wendy did an excellent job and I was well pleased. The cats were not stressed as they have been in the past when I have had someone just come feed them twice a day. If you have cats (or dogs) I would recommend Wendy and house sitting.”
“Brianna was amazing.. and always kept me informed. She dropped in on my 3 rambunctious cats and did extra duties like getting my mail and cleaning up where she didn't have to.. will definitely use her again if the need arises!”
“She is absolutely fantastic I highly recommend her. She took extra special care of my cat. He likes to be put on the sink and brushed with a warm flea comb and she even did that for him. I will use her again for sure. She even did FaceTime with him on her visits so I could talk to him.”

“Jennifer is a great pet sitter. I had her sit my 2 cats and 2 chickens. The cats were in the process of being toilet trained. Jennifer went beyond expectations and encouraged them like I do. They were so comfortable with her even my one picky cat that hides from strangers. I couldn't have lucked out any better than finding her to take care of my babies!”
“Austin kept in contact with me im every visit with Coco. And took great pictures of her and of our birds. He swept the dog hair from the floor. He does a great job. We will definitely use his services again for Coco.”

“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 :)”

“My husband and I were on vacation in Lake Tahoe and needed day care for our pup while we visited beaches with no dog access. Bethany accepted the job on very short notice and agreed to watch our dog even though he had a sore on his muzzle that needed some extra attention. Bethany’s house is very dog friendly and she gave our dog tons of attention and entertainment. Bethany is very professional with healthy boundaries for the dogs she takes in and genuinely enjoys loving on animals! She also provides us with lots of updates during the day so we never had to worry how our dog was doing.”

About: I have over 20 years of pet care experience by providing care in my own home, and in clients homes for medium and large dogs as well as cats. I also have 4 years of fostering experience with rescue dogs, including pregnant moms and birthing puppies. With all this experience I have provided medications, given laser therapies (with clients equipment), bottle and syringe fed young pups. I have walked dogs on leash and on slip leads. My mission is to make cats and dogs in my care feel safe, comfortable and loved while their pawrents are gone. We are a couple based sitting service, which allows for your pet to have several outdoor potty and play sessions, and plenty of snuggle time indoors as well. I am open to providing care for 4 dogs in my home in addition to my pack, and am able to take multiple cats (they have their own room in my home so that they are not stressed by the dogs and vice versa). In my home dogs would have access to outside time as needed for the majority of the day. I will follow all expectations for your dog in your home. In our home dogs are allowed on the furniture as we allow our own on the furniture. I believe in positive reinforcement by providing love, treats and redirection. I will not and am not comfortable using shock collars, prong collars or choke collars.

I am flexible in my care routine, and open to feedback. I work from home and have a very flexible job that allows me to play with and care for my animals at ease. I have a free schedule in the evenings and on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and love to play with my animals outside. I have several dog beds and they find comfort on the couch!
“This was the first time I had ever considered a sitter for Bear and I was a bit apprehensive because my rescue baby tend to be aggressive with other dogs and Gabriel did not shy away from the challenge. She came by to meet him because I was ill and could not keep my appointment. Bear instantly connected with her and he actually was okay with being around other dogs. She has a special connection and I am so glad to have connected with her and it is so comforting to know Bear really enjoy being in her care.”

I’m a stay at home mom so I can pretty much help or watch animals whenever needed! My 3 and 1 year old love to help me with the fur babies ❤️ I have a decent sized fenced yard that they can run around in and in my opinion fur babies are our family and should be allowed to sit with us on the couch.

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.

I have a dog of my own that I’ve done plenty of research for in order to take proper care of him! I’ve also had two more dogs and seven cats of my own back in my hometown! Safety is my biggest priority. In my client’s home, I will utilize every safety resource that is offered: fences, leashes, crates, and more. I will always make sure your fur baby is taken care of!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a long time and understand their needs. I’ve helped rescue many dogs over the years. I have experience helping anxious dogs feel comfortable. I love to take walks and I think dogs make walks even more enjoyable! I understand their basic needs but also understand them on a deeper level if they were to need special attention. I cannot currently care for animals in my home but I am happy to care for them in their home. I am comfortable with whatever level of care your pet requires.
“She took my dog for a nice walk around and played with her, left everything how it should be, and got along great with my dog and let her get some energy out! I’ll definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Austin was a life saver for us and our new adopted pup. Austin is responsive, professional, and really good with our dog. He gives him treats and belly rubs after his walk, uploads pictures, and even offered to work with him on some commands we’ve been working with him on. Highly recommend Austin.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a 8 years old. I specialize in senior dog care and special needs care. I love all animals. I'm at home full - time. I'm available 24/7 to take care of your pet and love on them as if they were my own. I would take your dog out on a leash everytime for potty breaks. My dog, Chico, uses a tie out chain, but that's his routine and only used for him. I would personally take your pet on a leash and never let them out of my sight. If your pet needed to be in a crate, I have a small size and medium size. I let animals on furniture for naps and cuddles and on the bed for any overnight stays.

About: Ive taken care of many animals across the board including puppies, dogs, senior dogs, chicks/chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, and cats. I have experience clipping and bathing dogs as well. Ive taken a couple animal science classes as well to further my animal knowledge. I love all animals and understand needs vary and I don't mind doing the “gross” stuff. Id take care any of my clients animals just as my own. Ive also had very successful attempts in training puppies! When I babysat for a family I had to also manage 4 dogs with cleaning, feeding, and potty breaks. I now take care of my own dog and work around my college schedule. This includes walks, feeding, and a potty break before, in-between, and after classes. I also have a family cat that I tend to and have given shots to. I have tons of leashes and portable bowls for anywhere your fur baby would need. I also have leash seat belt buckles. I can care for your animals anytime of night as well.
About: Growing up my family always had at least one dog. We had all different breeds, both large and small. So whatever breed your sweet pup is, I’m happy to watch them. Right now I’m working 8-4 and attending school three nights a week in Nashville. I have an hour lunch which allows me to go home everyday for potty breaks and play time at noon! My partner is also at the house most days after he gets home from work around 9am. Every dog we’ve watched absolutely adores him! I live in a duplex that has a decent sized front and side yard - so we can play fetch whenever we’re not able to make it to the dog park.
About: I have had a love for animals ever since I can remember! Throughout high school I worked for a well known vet clinic learning the ins and outs. After high school I began working in pet boarding facilities where I learned how to administer medicine to dogs and cats, stick to multiple feeding schedules, learn about multiple pet behaviors and much more. Pets bring me so much happiness in this world and I love nothing more than to be around them. I am currently self employed and a part time online college student. This allows me to have an open schedule and plenty of free time to love on your fur babies! ***IMPORTANT*** HOUSE SITTING: I do not stay in homes overnight. House sitting consists of multiple trips to your home. Typically every 4 hours with around an hour to an hour and a half of play time, cuddles and walks within the drop in visits. I do not like to stay gone for too long however the need for every 4 hours is due to the needs of my other business and fur baby. We can always discuss needs further to make sure I can meet your expectations. I am still pretty flexible! If your pet requires a full day of consistent care there will be an additional charge. The first two hours of the stay would be covered under my base rate and thereafter would be an additional charge which can be discussed. This can be discussed after knowing the needs and what your expectations would be. I try to be as accommodating as possible. :) House sitting visits will include plenty of attention, walks, play time, feedings, watering plants if needed, bringing in mail and other small things similar. DROP IN VISITS: This is typically the need for just one visit a day such as if you're gone from home for a long work day or if you have cats that just need checked on once a day. If multiple visits are needed, it may be best to choose the house sitting option. A drop in visit will include walks, play time, treats and feedings if needed I treat everybody's pet as if they were my own. I will always create a clean and safe space for them. I believe that for most of us, our fur babies are more like our children. So providing the best possible care is important for me.

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!”
“Regina was so helpful. I had a very late notice request, and Regina was willing to work with me to make sure my doggy was well taken care of. Made sure to send me pics and videos of my dog. 10/10 would recommend and will be using her again!!! Thank you so much, Regina!”
“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.”
“Jenn and Derek took real good care of Penny while I was visiting TN . Penny had a blast. She was safe and well cared. I received updates on her frequently including pictures of her and the activities she did. She looked like she was home. Great job. Well done. I would recommend your services. Thank you Jenn and Derek. Great team work.”
“Cindy is the best! Roscoe is a very anxious black lab but she made him feel like he was home. She communicates well and sends pictures often. First time we’ve left Roscoe and didn’t worry one time about him. She’s the best! Thank you Cindy!”
“You will find yourself very fortunate if you are able to book Drew for pet sitting. Her experience and knowledge of pet behavior really helped set my mind at ease. I just moved to the area from Colorado and I have a senior dog that has been my companion and has gone everywhere with me for the last 10 years. She is an indoor dog used to be pampered. This is the first time I was unable to take her on a road trip with me. You can imagine my stress, apprehension and uncertainty to leave her with someone I had just met. During my meet and greet session with Drew I had a new sense of reassurance. She listened to me validated me and followed all my instructions. She communicated with me several times a day including photos & videos. Drew was flexible with me during my uncertain schedule. My dog was taken care of very well. Drew was able to adjust to any issues that came up quickly and appropriately. She was also competent & confident administering medication’s as needed for my dog. I would highly recommend Drew for your pet sitting needs. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about animals. I enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet like my own and always try to give them the attention and care they deserve. Additionally, I have a prosthetic leg, which has made me more adaptable, patient, and attentive in everything I do. It’s taught me how to approach situations with care and awareness qualities that carry over into how I care for animals every day. I’m a Tennessee Tech student, and since I don’t have classes in the afternoons, I have a lot of availability to care for pets. I’m dependable, patient, and I like making sure pets stay active, comfortable, and on their normal routine while their owner is away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, fresh water, walks or bathroom breaks, and time to play. I also spend time with them so they feel comfortable and not alone while their owner is away.
About: I’ve spent 25+ years caring for all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, and even reptiles. Living on 17 acres gives plenty of space for safe walks, playtime, and exploring. Whether your pup loves fetch, your cat just wants cuddles, or your reptile needs special attention, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. I work from home so I’m usually always around! With 3 kids here everyone pitches in so your pet will always have someone around to care for them! 17 acres for your pets to explore if they like being outdoors. A comfy home indoors for the less adventurous ones! Our house is clean and safe and welcoming to all sort of animals.
About: I have been grooming for 14 years and offer boarding. I offer one on one services for all pets. Contact for appointments to book for grooming or boarding. Groomong and boarding is what I do full time and I'm home almost all the time so your babies will always be looked after and have me around them watching over them. I have fenced in yard and have separate kennels for each Pet so everyone will be separated unless owners are ok with them interacting with my own personal dogs who are very friendly.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life growing up on a farm and helped raise champion dalmatians! I would love to care for your pets! I am a stay at home mom! I am available anytime you need me! I would be thrilled to take care of your furry friends! I live near a park and go on regular walks that would keep your pet entertained! I am always home so they would never be alone!
“Hannah is a wonderful pet sitter. She and her sweet family took good care of my Dolly doggy. She came home tired, but happy. She will be my first choice for Dolly next time I need her looked after and loved.”
“For our first experience with Rover, would couldn’t have asked for a better experience than we had with Parker. Our 7-month old pup, Ash, is high energy and we were worried he would be a trouble. No concerns from Parker with his behavior, and Ash came home in perfect spirits to very thankful parents! Looking forward to working with Parker again in the future.”
About: I’ve spent all of my life with a passion for animals and grew up taking care of pigs for 4-H and FFA as well as riding and caring for about 16+ horses since I was 10 years old. I took veterinary college accredited classes in high school and have owned and cared for 3 dogs over the years. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats but I can take care of them in your home if needed. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a baby on the way in September. I’m am always at home unless I’m out grocery shopping or out at dinner with my fiancé. So I have plenty of time to care and love on your fur baby and make them feel right at home! I have no pets in the home currently and I would only be able to take your dog on walks and around the property to use the restroom as we have no fenced in yard currently. They will be inside most of their stay. When pet sitting at your place I can most of anything that is needed. I do not have a crate available at my house currently so if you would like your baby in a crate or kennel, you would need to supply that as well.
“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!”
