“Brittany was wonderful. She kept me updated about Buddy. He had a good time with her. I would be happy to have Buddy stay with her again on my next trip. He got along with the other pups in the house and everything went smoothly.”
“My dogs are well taken care of by Aric and his family. I feel comfortable leaving the pups with them even when we leave the country for a couple of weeks. We will continue to use their services!”
“Our dogs were given so much love over the last week. One of our pups had an upset tummy in the middle of the week and she kept us updated. She sent us pictures and I'm so thankful that I know they got lots of attention. We already another trip booked using them and a 3rd will be booked soon. Thanks for loving on my babies ❤️ Amy P.”

“Crystal helped me with a short notice boarding request. She was great with communication during the stay. When I picked my dog up, she was happy and healthy. No problems. Thanks so much.”
“Kallie is very kind and very knowledgeable about dogs. My Charlie was given a lot of attention and excellent care during his stay in her home. I amany photos daily, which eliminated my anxiety about leaving him in someone else's home. I will definitely hire Kallie again to keep my Charlie when I have to travel.”
“Shawna was wonderful!! She was very quick to respond to messages and sent a lot of pictures of my buddy. It was really nice to have a peace of mind that my dog was in such good hands while I was out of town. 10 out of 10 recommend!!”

“The whole family took very good care of Abby. I could tell by the daily updates that she was being treated just like she was part of the family. Abby perked up when I showed her a picture and said one of the children names, looking around for her new found friend only settling back down when I started to pet Abby. Can’t thank them enough for the attention given. Awesome service!”

“Ruth and her husband provided excellent care for my dog while I was away. They have great knowledge about dogs and offered a wonderful home away from home for my pup. Highly recommended.”
About: Surrounding myself around pets has always given me serenity and peace. I worked at a dog resort where I fed, walked, played with, cleaned up after, and even had nap time with many dogs. I have studied dog behavior and group play through lessons given by my employment at the dog resort. I can administer medication and do my absolute best at following any requirements your fur baby needs! I have a friendly mini golden doodl), a playful toy Australian Shepherd, and two sweet cats whom I love to pieces! I also work from home and have a very flexible schedule.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!”
“Absolutely amazing and stunning experience. Abigail was incredible! I got so many photos and videos. She took my dog to the dog park many times and even took him in to get a few toys when he chewed up the ones I sent with him. 100% my dog did NOT want to leave her, he had such a great time! Abigail is new to this platform, but has great experience. Definitely give her your business!”

“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”

I have a fenced in backyard, but I can also leash walk your pets as needed. We also have a great nature trail within 5 minutes of my home for higher energy dogs.
“Stephanie is THE best sitter I have ever had, period. The number of ways she went above and beyond when watching our three kitties when out of the country for 18 days was incredible. She sent tons of pictures and gave updates frequently on how the cats were doing and was willing to deal with one of our cats who needed oral pills in the morning (and can be quite difficult!) I cannot recommend her highly enough!”

“Shannon visited my boy cat Smokie at my house a few times. I couldnt be more thankful! (not to mention one day was Valentines) xoxo. I was unexpectedly delayed on my return home and Shannon is an angel to have stopped by to make sure he was safe <3 Thank you, R.”
“I can't say enough good stuff about Cheyenne! You should know that I have never trusted many people with my animals, but Cheyenne earned my trust and kept it. Anyone who knows me knows what a huge compliment that is. After another sitter flaked out on us, she came to the rescue at the very last minute. She is always on time, communicates well, kind, caring, and went way beyond to make sure not just the animals were happy... but us too. We put extra on her and she willingly went even further. I hope she is still doing this when we go on our next trip! Again, she is great. Great customer service, very professional, and great with animals. :) Cheyenne, I'm sorry I didn't share the YouTube videos for the parrots sooner. If I had known it would make yall instant friends, I would have. Lol”
“This was our first experience with boarding our cat. Sharon, was extremely friendly and welcoming to us and our cat. Sharon sent us daily updates and multiple photos letting us know how our cat was doing. Hands down the best you will find to watch your animals. Highly recommended!!! We will definitely use her services again!”
“Showed up and did everything, very respectful of my space and my pets. It’s always a stress wondering if someone will be reliable especially with your pets while you’re on vacation. I’m very pleased and would definitely recommend to anyone in need of pet sitting.”
“Very pleased that Jay was able to take care of my cat, MIka, while I was away. Such a good feeling to travel, knowing that all is well on the home front! Communication was top notch and the care he provided was excellent.”
“Katherine, Cared for our cat exceptionally well. She went above and beyond with keeping her fed and watered (our sassafras cat-who runs the house) is very picky). She updated us after every visit, I would recommend her and will absolutely rebook with Katherine!”
“Paige did a great job taking care of our fur babies. I have always felt uncomfortable leaving them, but Paige made me feel at ease. She was very willing to come meet with me so I could let her know their preferences and show her their environment, including where they liked to hide! I would definitely be very happy to leave them in her care again.”
About: Cats are some of my favorite creatures on earth, and I have owned two of my own for seven years. One of my cats has separation anxiety, so I know how hard it can be to travel while worrying about your pets. My goal is to provide an enriching but calming experience for your cats while you’re away so you can have peace of mind. I have experience administering medication to cats, and am meticulously observant about any behavioral changes.
About: I’ve owned animals my whole life, especially dogs. I have two dogs of my own who are very spoiled. I would love to meet your dog(s) and take some stress off of your day. Thank u! I am a part time college student going to class late on Tuesday and Thursday . I work from 9-5 on Wednesday and Friday and 9-3 on Saturday at a furniture store in Madisonville. I have plenty of down time all throughout the week. I will accommodate any needs that you have for your pet(s) in your home. I would love to take them out for walks or take them out to play and burn off some steam like I do for my own dogs.

We love getting to meet all kinds of different dogs, and having them interact with my kids. I’m home pretty much all the time so I never have to crate unless they sleep in one at night. I have clients that have been returning since 2019. I have 2 little girls, and all the dogs I’ve watched have been great with them!

I’m able to administer any medications you may need for your fur baby! I’m currently home 24/7 unless I have doctor appts, or have to run a few errands.

“Wendy is such a gem! She was reliable, thoughtful, and very responsive. The kitty she cared for earns his name "Spooky" because he is easily spooked. Within a few days, however, he was showing up for attention and petting. We got pictures every day and are so pleased that we could be away without worries.”
“Delaney, you were amazing!! Harold is shy and actually came up to you and you got great photos! Which says a lot about your warm energy:) Thank you again! I will definefitely request you in the future:) Lori”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Decatur
“My dog ran back and gave Kallie two good-byes before coming to me to go home, which was a great sign to me that he really loved her and trusted her. She is very good with my golden retriever and has a nice home and fenced yard for him. I am so happy I found her.”
About: We're a homeschool, pet-loving family. Your furry friend is going to have an awesome and FUN time while you're away! We do plenty of walks and outdoor play. Our house is large and open as well. We do ask that pets are kid friendly and house-broken. We've pet sat for friends and family for many years and would love to give your pet a fun stay! We're hoping to create long-term relationships with pet-parents. I'm a homeschool mom and love to spend time at home snuggling furry pets! I have an awesome neighborhood with sidewalks and other friendly, neighbor dog-walkers. I have a large house and welcome pets that want to be petted, walked and loved on. For independant cats, there is plenty of room to roam. Note, my yard is not fenced, but we have a huge lot to explore and sidewalks for long neighborhood walks.
“THANK YOU Darlene. this was my first time scheduling a sitting time for my dog on Rover and away from home. Darlene was everything I wished for anyone watching my sweet Chico even for a few hours. she is a natural! she allowed us to bring Chico for a first quick meeting before the sitting date, Chico took up with her immediately and was very comfortable in her home. Her home is in a really nice and beautiful location ideal for anybody’s pet. She send me pictures and comments about Chico and how he was doing, I know he was not only taken good care of but was spoiled same as I do. Definitely will use her again and recommend her!”
About: Experienced vet assistant and kennel technician with a strong background in both dog and cat care. I've volunteered at animal shelters and lived in a multi-pet home, providing daily care, enrichment, and love to animals of all breeds and temperaments. I work from home and can provide near-constant care and attention for your pets. They’ll never be left alone for more than an hour or two, ensuring a safe, supervised, and comforting environment at all times. Your pets will enjoy a loving, comfortable home with plenty of freedom to relax—including cozy spots on the furniture. They’ll have safe playtime 4 times a day at a local dog park and are let out for potty breaks 6 times a day. When we aren't going on walks, the dogs will be free to roam the townhouse and enjoy plenty of love and pets! At night, they’ll sleep peacefully in their crate, but don’t worry—I provide plenty of fun and enrichment during the day to make sure they’re happily tuckered out and ready for a restful sleep. Every pet gets personal attention and care tailored to their needs, so they feel right at home.
About: I'm offering small dog, under 15 lbs and cat sitting in my home where lots of love and care are the priority. Chloe my 13 year old Shih Tzu Maltese has lived with kitties her entire life. I work from home and pets have always been a huge part of my life. Taking care of their daily needs comes natural and is always the priority and gives me lots of joy. If you're ok with your doggie running around the house enjoying their day that's what you'll find here. Doggies & kitties can enjoy outdoor views from the large picture window that provides great entertainment. Back yard has a fenced in area for outdoor potty breaks and outdoor playtime. For cat boarding I have six spacious cat condos with lofts that can comfortably accommodate two kitties. Each condo is facing a large picture window that provides a peaceful environment for a kitty's home away from home loving stay. Lots of kitty attention and love included.

About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.
About: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.

I have experience administering medication and providing special care. In addition, over the years, I've gained experience caring for the dogs of other owners. Your baby will be pampered and spoiled as if he or she was one of my own. Your pet(s) will receive multiple potty breaks throughout the day. In addition, pet(s) will get daily play time in large fenced backyard and 2 walks a day. I have a half an acre fenced backyard, so plenty of space for your baby to run around and play. Clean dog beds, and if preferred for sleeping, crates with beds for all sizes. For the length of the stay, your baby will be able to make himself or herself at home.
About: As a lifelong dog owner and frequent dog sitter for my close friends and family, I get how important it is not to have to worry about your dog when you can't be home. Ditch those worries and enjoy yourself while an incredibly professional, reliable, & responsible person hangs out with your dog! I'm here to offer a dog-friendly house with lots of cozy furniture to sprawl on, a big back yard, a great walkable small town, and plentiful nearby hikes for outdoor time. Your dog will feel right at home. Depending on your dog's energy level, we'll spend our time playing in the yard or exploring a nearby hike, or just lounging at home for the more sleepy senior dogs. I'm here to make your dog's vacation just as fun and comfortable as yours! I have a flexible, chill work-from-home job, allowing me to hang out with your pet 24/7! I can tailor my schedule to your dogs' play, potty break, and rest needs. I have a spacious home and yard, and have lots of time for whatever attention your dog needs. My sweet senior dog chills all day on the couch with me while I work, and we take frequent breaks to hang out on the porch and play in the yard.

Can’t thank them enough for the attention given. Awesome service!”
