“Victoria was an excellent dog sitter for me while on vacation to Jamaica. By dog stayed with her for 9 days and I was sent pictures of her playing and relaxing at least once per day. Her lot is huge and gives dogs enough space to run around and play. My dog has been exhausted for the last 2 days from all the fun she had. 10 out of 10 would recommend.”
“Christy was a absolutely perfect. It was a last minute decision to us Rover services for our pet, and Christy approved our request within minutes. She sent us pictures of him playing everyday that he was there. I liked the fact that she has a fenced in back yard and that he was there with other dogs which I’m sure made it more fun for him. He was taking to Christy immediately so I knows it would be a good fit for him also seen the love she has for dogs. I would definitely take him back to her.”
“As the dog parent, I was impressed with Bailie’s communications daily. She has an amazing setup and Russell felt comfortable and at ease at her house. No concerns with his level of care and I’ll use Bailie for boarding needs in the future. Thank you so much, Bailie!”
“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.”

“Juniper had such a great time with Lisa. Her property is beautiful and spacious and so peaceful. You can tell that everyone is well loved and cared for. When I arrived to pick up Juniper she was running around and playing with all of the other dogs. Highly recommend!!”
“I was only gone for a two day trip, but Smokey had fun, Christopher took great care of Smokey. He has a dog named emile who is sweet and an understanding dog. He also had another dog come by for a sitting and Smokey had fun with him/her as well! I have already booked another boarding with him and fully trust him to take care of my fur baby. A good man and has extensive experience with many breeds!”
“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!”
“Marcus was the perfect choice for keeping our senior dog. He was so attentive. He cared for Rex like he would his own dog. He sends pictures and updates frequently. When issues arose, Marcus reached out immediately and asked for guidance and offered assistance. I was able to fully relax and enjoy our family trip knowing that Marcus was keeping Rex exercised, fed and cuddled.”

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!

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.

Pets can be protective in their home so I always try and make them as comfortable as possible.
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 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.

I currently have 3 large dogs, a female German Shepard mix, a male brindled mutt,a yr old male German Shepard. I also have 2 very chatty orange tabby cats. All of which are rescues. I’m currently working part time from home, so I have all the time to care for your pets! I am free to house sit, take your pups for a walk during the day or even just pop in to check in on them. Nothing is as nice as being able snuggle with your furry ones. I want to be able to help you by taking care of your pets as if they were my own. Be assured they will get all the pets and snuggles while you are gone. I will follow the owner’s routine as closely as possible. If the pets are use to sleeping the room with you, I do not mind staying in the room with them if you prefer, otherwise the guest room is perfectly fine.
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.
“Alesha is my pups other mother. Sake is almost 17, so she needs extra reassurance that she is safe since her eyesight is fading. Alesha walks my dog regularly, but also stepped in as mom for two months last year when I was on a place every 4 days. Her love and compassion is why she is my go to person to take care of my best friend. Knowing that you have someone to love your pet as much as you do is important. I can travel for work knowing that Sake is in good hands.”
About: I’ve taken care of hundreds of dogs over the past 2 years, all of different ages and sizes, with different needs. From walking, transporting, playing, supervising playtime, cuddling, cleaning, and assisting those in need, I am capable of doing just about anything you need for your fur baby. (Worked at Greymont kennel services and Chasing Tail Pet Farm, have done pet sitting off of rover, and have owned multiple dogs of different age/size, with different limitations) I have a very flexible schedule, but I do have to be available for school drop off and pick up. (0700 then again at 1500) In your home, your pets comfort and safety are a top priority, as is respecting your space. Your home will always be left as it was found if not better, and your pets won’t be lonely with me around!
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. Thanks "Every once in awhile a dog enters your life and changes it." "A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself." "Be the person your dog thinks you are"
About: I am UNavailable Monday, Wednesday, and Friday 6 to 9 am and 7 to 10 pm due to classes. I am also UNavailable Tuesday and Thursdays 6 to 9 am and 6 to 9 pm due to classes. I have always taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I have had a cat nearly my entire life and taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I am currently a college, graduate-student, so I can take care of your dogs and cats most of the time during the week. I have seven pets, also known as my "children," that I have taken care of for the last 4 years. I can always take your dogs or cats out on a walk, give them the play time that they need. I can provide all the love and cuddles that they need.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. More recently I have fostered and I’m able to even administer medication if necessary. We love caring for animals. My schedule is very flexible and I can work around your needs. I’m up with the sun and can work into the evening. Happy to fit your pet into my schedule! I am are very strict about keeping dogs on leashes and cats inside. Your pet’s safety is our number one priority. I’ll keep a close eye on your pet.
About: I have always had a deep passion for animals, which began in childhood when I was thrilled to be old enough to walk my grandparents’ dogs. For the past four years, I’ve also had the joy of being a cat mom, which has further strengthened my appreciation for the love and care that pets bring into our lives. I understand how important it is to ensure pets feel safe, cared for, and engaged while in my care. In addition to my personal experience, I have over two years of professional pet care experience, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and administering specific care and medical instructions. I am comfortable working with both low-energy and high-energy dogs, and I always tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule, as I am off work at 2 p.m. each day and have the remainder of my day available to dedicate to walking or caring for your pet. In addition, I have 3 full days off each week, allowing me to give your pet plenty of attention, exercise, and playtime! Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. Just as I do with my own pet, I carefully monitor the environment to ensure there are no potential hazards, such as unsafe objects, foods, or items that could cause harm. My goal is to provide a secure, comfortable, and caring environment so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away. I truly enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality. Whether we’re playing, building trust, or simply sharing space, I find every interaction rewarding!
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!
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 love to care for dogs and have watched ages from puppies to senior dogs. I have also done many drop in visits to feed or give medication. I am currently enrolled in school full time so it fits into my routine perfectly with not having to work different jobs while in school. I care for animals as if they are my own whether it is someone else’s animal or mine. I also respect everyone else’s environment and home as if it is mine as well.

“Victoria was an excellent dog sitter for me while on vacation to Jamaica. By dog stayed with her for 9 days and I was sent pictures of her playing and relaxing at least once per day. Her lot is huge and gives dogs enough space to run around and play. My dog has been exhausted for the last 2 days from all the fun she had. 10 out of 10 would recommend.”
“Christy was a absolutely perfect. It was a last minute decision to us Rover services for our pet, and Christy approved our request within minutes. She sent us pictures of him playing everyday that he was there. I liked the fact that she has a fenced in back yard and that he was there with other dogs which I’m sure made it more fun for him. He was taking to Christy immediately so I knows it would be a good fit for him also seen the love she has for dogs. I would definitely take him back to her.”

“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.”

“I was only gone for a two day trip, but Smokey had fun, Christopher took great care of Smokey. He has a dog named emile who is sweet and an understanding dog. He also had another dog come by for a sitting and Smokey had fun with him/her as well! I have already booked another boarding with him and fully trust him to take care of my fur baby. A good man and has extensive experience with many breeds!”
“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!”

Will absolutely be Booking with them again in the future!”
