“Deree and her husband were wonderful with our English bulldog, Parker! She’s not even a year old, so it meant a lot knowing they took extra care with her and paid attention to her needs as she can be very hyper at times and needs some re direction. I felt completely at ease the entire time knowing she was in such good hands. I forgot to pack enough food for the second day, and they stepped in without hesitation to make sure she was fed and well taken care of, which I really appreciated. Their yard is nice and fully fenced in, making it a safe and fun space for the dogs to play. Parker clearly had a great time she slept the entire day when she got home! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl. We will definitely be using you again!”

“Cynthia is a 10/10 Trusted Sitter. If I could give her over 5 stars on Rover, I most certainly would without hesitation. The ‘start to end’ booking process was seamless and she was excellent to communicate with. She was beyond accommodating and all I needed to really know upon pick up was how my Tegan behaved. She did not want to leave Cynthia’s side which was a GREAT sign. Thank you Cynthia and Miles for opening your new, clean home to Tegan and spending time with her. Having to travel often for work doesn’t make it easy leaving my dog daughter behind but knowing she’s in good hands with you and close by, makes a world of a difference. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for having this service as an option here in Polk County, TN!!! Looking forward to our next Rover boarding with you in a couple of weeks!”

“Denita was amazing! I was a bit worried since my dog is a bit fearful and doesn’t like to be alone, but he didn’t want to leave when we came to pick him up. I’ve had Denita care for my dog twice so far and both times has been amazing. She updates you regularly with pictures and videos. Highly recommend.”

“WE had them care for our 2 dogs for 9 nights due to us traveling to Chicago for a medical procedure for my husband. We received text and pic updates that made us feel good about knowing that our dogs are in good care. Thank you for everything that you did to make our boys feel at ease and comfortable during their stay. Marty & Olga”

“Darlene treated my dog Summer like family! She was so accommodating with our last minute request. She was wonderful with communication and very knowledgeable about the animals. You can feel her passion for what she does within minutes of meeting her. Thank you Darlene for taking the best care of our girl! We will definitely be using her for all future pet sitting needs.”

“We were highly satisfied with services provided by Brianna. She was super easy to work with and so friendly and courteous. Also she gave us great updates complete with pictures. We will definitely use her again when needed.”

“Shannon was loving and caring towards our pups. She sent daily pictures and even gathered the babies a bath before we picked them up. So happy with her service and care.”

“Sharon is wonderful! She maintains great communication with pics and texts during your pets stay. She is super friendly and my dog loves going to her house. I would highly recommend her and I will certainly be using her services again.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and regularly care for the pets of family and friends. I truly love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and give them the same care, attention, and affection I’d want for my own pets. After all, pets are family. My schedule is very flexible as a part time server and college student. I’m generally available every day before 4 PM, and I often have evening availability depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit their needs and can accommodate most requests with advance notice. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, stress free environment. I have a very friendly dog who loves other animals and can provide a crate if needed. I follow each pet’s routine, respect their individual needs, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while their family is away.
“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”

“Chris did an amazing job taking care of our dogs. He gave routine updates with pictures and details that gave me all the comfort while we were away for the week. He was very flexible with our schedule and extremely detail oriented and meticulous about knowing their routine and any medication’s needed. It was also nice to find a Dog Sitter that does not take a million bookings during the same time. Our dogs are not very friendly with other dogs and Chris made sure not to double book with us. We will definitely be using him again for our dog sitting needs!”

“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. If you choose to get your baby taken care of by me, I will treat them like my own ❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule so they will have all of my attention! If they want it lol. I can also work around specific times you want your dog to eat, medication administered, etc. I have a fenced yard and two dogs that love to play! I can also provide a safe room and playpen for your dog to be in whenever I’m not home if that’s what they please!
“Smokeybear did well. Christina took very good care of him. I could tell she loves all animals and treated Smokey as one of her own pets. He seemed very happy after his stay there Thank you Christina.”

“Maddie took very good care of our dog Cooper. She was very attentive and made sure Cooper’s needs were met. She also sent us photos of Cooper playing with other dogs. We will use her again next time we need to board him.”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 15 years — starting with my own and growing into a trusted home-away-from-home for others’ pups too. Over that time I’ve cared for everything from bouncy puppies learning the ropes to senior dogs on daily medication, so I’m comfortable adjusting to whatever your dog needs. Every dog who stays with us gets fenced acreage to roam, a steady daily routine, and plenty of family time — plus photo updates so you always know they’re happy and well cared for. I’m a homeschooling mom, which means your pup gets lots of company throughout the day! A typical day starts with an early morning outing to run around and go potty, then breakfast, followed by lots of in-and-out playtime throughout the day. We wrap up with dinner and a calm bedtime routine. Your fur baby will get plenty of socialization, playtime, and snuggles from our family all day long — they won’t just be boarded, they’ll be part of the household. Your dog will have their own climate-controlled space, separate from our other animals but fully visible to them — so they can watch (and be watched by!) our cats, chickens, mini donkeys, and our own fur babies from a secure, fully enclosed 6-foot no-climb fence. Dogs stay in their kennels overnight, and for occasional breaks throughout the day depending on weather. Please bring your dog’s kennel, leash, and food dishes for their stay. If your pup needs medication, we’re happy to administer oral or topical meds for a $5/day fee. And if you’d like some extra peace of mind, I’m happy to send daily photo updates during their stay!
“Bethani was wonderful with our dog. She was attentive and could tell he was a little nervous when he first arrived and knew exactly what to do to calm him down and let him feel comfortable and as I was walking away I knew he was in good hands. She provided daily feedback on my pup with pictures and gave him lots of excersize and love. highly recommend Bethani and will use her again in the future”

“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.”


“Robyn did an outstanding job taking care of our laying hens! She is extremely responsible and a very genuine and trustworthy person. I will definitely book her again and can't 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.”


“My experience proved that Cheyenne is a responsible woman that took care of my 3 cats. One would not eat much, and she therefore made an extra trip to attempt to feed her. She also texted me about the issue and suggested she could try to feed her again. Cheyenne is very considerate and I would not hesitate to hire her services in the future.”

About: I have had decades of experience walking and caring for dogs, cats, frogs, lizards, turtles, parrots, poultry and more. I have taken care of big dogs and little dogs, cats and kittens. I am familiar with giving medications to animals, as well. I work part time and have a fairly flexible schedule. I am a licensed paramedic and educator just earning extra income. I keep parrots and poultry currently with cats and dogs. I have had had herps and reptiles in the past, as well. I will treat your pets like they were my own. I know the anxiety of having to leave pets to get out of town and will do everything I can to make sure you don't regret it.
“Stephanie did a wonderful job watching our cats. She was prompt with responses to messages and gave regular updates on how they were doing. Would definitely request for her again next time we are out of town.”

“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.”

“She was awesome! We needed someone super last minute to help check on our babies during a trip we were taking like 4 days from looking in rover. She sent us pictures and even took cute polaroids of the cats and left them for us to see. We loved having her! Thank you again!”

About: Hi! I’m Lyndsey and I was a veterinary technician for 4 years, but have been dog sitting full time for the past 3+ years. I also have my own licensed dog boarding business, and do Rover on the side when I have availability! My husband and I live in Athens,TN. We have about 5 acres of land fenced in. 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! During all of the stays for the dogs I watch I provide homemade treats, and toys to play with. I hope to watch your fur baby real soon! ❤️ So I’m available any weekend or weekday to dog sit your sweet fur babies! I will make sure they are in great hands! Look forward to meeting new clients! 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. So your dog wouldn’t ever need to be crated unless you have them sleep in one at night. I can also admin meds if they require to have any during the day.

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.

About: I have had four plus fur babies as a part of my family for 35+ years ! I love them all as their individual personalities and needs as if they are my own ! They will always be safe, they will always be loved both individually and as a group ! I have trained my own my furry babies over the years ! They were all loving and accepting of all creatures and my babies were little ones ! The little ones get branded not so good but I see the best in them all and attend to their individual needs when they come into my home they become a member of my family and receive the love and attention they need !!! I am retired, therefore I am available 24/7 . I have the priveleage of being home to ensure that each sweetie that comes into my home is attended to both with love and any care they will require anywhere from young puppy to our senior babies who will require more attention in regards to medicine massages for their joints and simply love I have a fenced yard to accommodate small dogs I have one myself who is 7lbs. She is friendly to all new guests! And when I take her out to either potty or to just get free run exercise in my yard I stay with her. I do not leave her outside unattended for not even one second I interact and engage with her both indoors and outdoors with play and love !
About: Hi there, I'm Tiffany! I loooove all fur babies..pups, kitties, ferets...you name it! My senior dog (Rambler) recently passed away, so it’s just me And on any given day, I have random furry guests over to keep me company. The more the merrier :) I have a pretty flexible work schedule, so I'm at home the majority of most days. I have a great space for animals at my home with the inside being tidied up and animal friendly. I’ve been dog sitting/house sitting for people for years and have many wonderful references upon request. I love all ages, sizes, and personalities! My boy that just passed away was paraplegic so I have a lot of experience with special needs babies.(doggie wheelchairs, bladder expression, medication, etc.) I am currently working from home part time so have plenty of free time to keep the animals company. May have to leave to run errands but would return very shortly if so. My main goal is to help your pups feel safe and comfortable while you are away whether that be at my home or at yours.

I have advanced animal training and have worked with a wide variety of animals.I can also do farm sitting but will discuss rates separately I am currently working full time in the animal field. I get over an hour lunch and have the weekends available. I can also spend time with them in the evenings and mornings. I will stay in your home to make sure the animal is in a comfortable environment. I will feed and water them as instructed. If they have any medical needs I will be able to help tend to that as well.
About: I have grown up with pets all my life and have worked as a doggy daycare attendant. I recently graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Animal Science and have experience handing animals from ferrets to cows. I have experience with all kinds of dogs: big, small, old, young, etc. and I have also done a lot of neighborhood pet sitting. Caring for animals is my passion so you can truly trust that you are putting your pet in the hands of someone who genuinely cares and has good experience with them. I am a full time student at Tarleton State University and most days, I only have one to two classes in the morning. I have two ferrets, but they aren’t on a specific schedule meaning that I have a lot of availability. I love spending time with animals in whatever ways that they prefer whether that is playing, cuddling, or neither :) I am happy to spend time with your pets outside of the necessary care they need.
About: My husband, Clifton Hicks, and I work from home and have experience with dogs, cats, pigs, guinea fowl, chickens, hampsters, guinea pigs, ducks, fish and goats. We are originally from Georgia and FL, we formerly worked for the National Park Service and US Forest Service and have settled here in SE Tennessee. We have each experienced a life time of pet care before and after meeting. To us, animals are angels! We have 1 well behaved, friendly one year old male cat and 1 mixed brindle eleven year old dog. Clifton works from home as an instrument builder, and provides banjo lessons to his clients across the globe. I am a real estate agent and I have a home office and an office at HomeSmart Living Realty in Etowah, TN. We enjoy helping people and animals! And they are our priority above all other tasks. Clifton and/or I are home at all times. We are happy to help on short notice and have a flexible work-life schedule. We enjoy using amazon and walmart delivery because we can spend more time at home building the farm :D. Indoor space include, full access to the living room, dining room and kitchen. For outdoor space, we have 3+ acres, a screened in patio, 3 outbuildings, and 1 large kennel. We encourage good behavior with treats and patience. Our verbal communication is calm.
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.
About: Hugh L. III (nickname Trey) To comfort any animal brings comfort to me. I will do anything to ensure health and happiness for your pets even if it is merely sitting with them and providing company and love. I have experience with administering medication, dog walks, continuing a training regimen set by owner or introducing new behavioral solutions, caring for high anxiety animals with patience and gentleness. Also I have experience in caring for geriatric and special needs animals: diaper changing, getting pets in and out of wheelchairs, and care and cleaning for incontinence. I’m currently working Monday through Friday 6:00am to 2:00pm, I get an hour lunch from 11:00 to 12:00pm so I could check on animals during lunch and then of course be with them at all times outside of this work schedule, I’m off Saturday and Sunday. I will be offering all services except for boarding in my own home because present circumstances prevent me from doing so. If I sit for you in your home I will treat it with the utmost respect and abide by any and all guidelines you provide including cleaning up after any pet incident, bathing, playtime, etc.
About: Hi, I’m Tony! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’m lucky enough to have turned that love into my career. I’m a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) graduate currently trying to get my license. I’m passionate about making pets feel safe, loved, and cared for, just like part of the family. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog needing extra TLC, or a cat who just needs a cozy lap to nap on, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and at home, even when you can’t be there. I am currently living in Ooltewah, while I wait for my veterinary license. I have lots of free time during the week to dedicate to caring for your pets! I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own home. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I have clinical experience, so I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets, special needs pets, and administering medications if needed. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, and you can trust that your pet is in kind, capable hands every step of the way. My goal is to provide not just care, but comfort, attention, and peace of mind, for both you and your pet!
“Jay was absolutely amazing with my pup, always sent me detailed feedback and never missed a picture, which truly helps when you are away from your pup. Jay is the type of person that goes the extra mile to make sure you know your pup is in good hands. I would use Jay moving forward without a question!!”

“Deree and her husband were wonderful with our English bulldog, Parker! She’s not even a year old, so it meant a lot knowing they took extra care with her and paid attention to her needs as she can be very hyper at times and needs some re direction. I felt completely at ease the entire time knowing she was in such good hands. I forgot to pack enough food for the second day, and they stepped in without hesitation to make sure she was fed and well taken care of, which I really appreciated. Their yard is nice and fully fenced in, making it a safe and fun space for the dogs to play. Parker clearly had a great time she slept the entire day when she got home! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl. We will definitely be using you again!”

“Cynthia is a 10/10 Trusted Sitter. If I could give her over 5 stars on Rover, I most certainly would without hesitation. The ‘start to end’ booking process was seamless and she was excellent to communicate with. She was beyond accommodating and all I needed to really know upon pick up was how my Tegan behaved. She did not want to leave Cynthia’s side which was a GREAT sign. Thank you Cynthia and Miles for opening your new, clean home to Tegan and spending time with her. Having to travel often for work doesn’t make it easy leaving my dog daughter behind but knowing she’s in good hands with you and close by, makes a world of a difference. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for having this service as an option here in Polk County, TN!!! Looking forward to our next Rover boarding with you in a couple of weeks!”

“WE had them care for our 2 dogs for 9 nights due to us traveling to Chicago for a medical procedure for my husband. We received text and pic updates that made us feel good about knowing that our dogs are in good care. Thank you for everything that you did to make our boys feel at ease and comfortable during their stay. Marty & Olga”

“Darlene treated my dog Summer like family! She was so accommodating with our last minute request. She was wonderful with communication and very knowledgeable about the animals. You can feel her passion for what she does within minutes of meeting her. Thank you Darlene for taking the best care of our girl! We will definitely be using her for all future pet sitting needs.”

“Shannon was loving and caring towards our pups. She sent daily pictures and even gathered the babies a bath before we picked them up. So happy with her service and care.”

“Sharon is wonderful! She maintains great communication with pics and texts during your pets stay. She is super friendly and my dog loves going to her house. I would highly recommend her and I will certainly be using her services again.”

“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”

“Chris did an amazing job taking care of our dogs. He gave routine updates with pictures and details that gave me all the comfort while we were away for the week. He was very flexible with our schedule and extremely detail oriented and meticulous about knowing their routine and any medication’s needed. It was also nice to find a Dog Sitter that does not take a million bookings during the same time. Our dogs are not very friendly with other dogs and Chris made sure not to double book with us. We will definitely be using him again for our dog sitting needs!”

“Smokeybear did well. Christina took very good care of him. I could tell she loves all animals and treated Smokey as one of her own pets. He seemed very happy after his stay there Thank you Christina.”

“Maddie took very good care of our dog Cooper. She was very attentive and made sure Cooper’s needs were met. She also sent us photos of Cooper playing with other dogs. We will use her again next time we need to board him.”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 15 years — starting with my own and growing into a trusted home-away-from-home for others’ pups too. Over that time I’ve cared for everything from bouncy puppies learning the ropes to senior dogs on daily medication, so I’m comfortable adjusting to whatever your dog needs. Every dog who stays with us gets fenced acreage to roam, a steady daily routine, and plenty of family time — plus photo updates so you always know they’re happy and well cared for. I’m a homeschooling mom, which means your pup gets lots of company throughout the day! A typical day starts with an early morning outing to run around and go potty, then breakfast, followed by lots of in-and-out playtime throughout the day. We wrap up with dinner and a calm bedtime routine. Your fur baby will get plenty of socialization, playtime, and snuggles from our family all day long — they won’t just be boarded, they’ll be part of the household. Your dog will have their own climate-controlled space, separate from our other animals but fully visible to them — so they can watch (and be watched by!) our cats, chickens, mini donkeys, and our own fur babies from a secure, fully enclosed 6-foot no-climb fence. Dogs stay in their kennels overnight, and for occasional breaks throughout the day depending on weather. Please bring your dog’s kennel, leash, and food dishes for their stay. If your pup needs medication, we’re happy to administer oral or topical meds for a $5/day fee. And if you’d like some extra peace of mind, I’m happy to send daily photo updates during their stay!
“Bethani was wonderful with our dog. She was attentive and could tell he was a little nervous when he first arrived and knew exactly what to do to calm him down and let him feel comfortable and as I was walking away I knew he was in good hands. She provided daily feedback on my pup with pictures and gave him lots of excersize and love. highly recommend Bethani and will use her again in the future”

“Lindsey was great with our senior doberman, she kept up with all his medications. She was very accommodating and gave us updates on our pup. An added bonus, as a Vet tech, she made us feel very comfortable our dog was in good hands. Thanks Lindsey, we will be using your services again soon!”

“Wendy was absolutely amazing with Remington, and he was very happy with her, and her family. If anyone needs a dog sitter I highly recommend Wendy, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Wendy. Remy thanks you too. ?❤️”

About: Your peace of mind and their happiness are my top priorities! I am dedicated to providing peace of mind to pet parents while they’re away. I understand how important your pets are to you, and I treat them like family. When your fur babies are in my care, they’ll receive plenty of attention, snuggles, and love. I have a large, fenced-in backyard where they can play safely and enjoy the outdoors. You will receive many updated, pics and videos while your pet is here having fun. I’m home 90% of the time and make it a priority to plan my activities around what best suits your pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s sticking to their diet, getting the perfect amount of playtime, or providing them with rest when needed, I tailor everything to their routine. I ensure that your pets feel included in everything I do, making them feel like they’re part of my family during their stay. Pet care is at the center of my daily routine. My life revolves around my clients’ schedules, and I always plan activities based on the pet’s specific needs. I try to stay home as much as possible, ensuring the pets feel safe and comfortable in their surroundings. During the day, your pets are free to hang out with me in the living room, kitchen, or even my bedroom. I aim to provide a routine that feels familiar and comforting to each pet, adjusting based on their personality and needs. My goal is to make them feel as relaxed and at home as possible during their stay! I care for pets with the same attention and love that I would give my own. In my home, I have a large, fenced-in backyard perfect for playtime and outdoor fun. I’m also centrally located in a wooded neighborhood, right across from a beautiful forest preserve, which means lots of fresh air and opportunities for nature walks. My split-level home gives me the ability to separate pets if there’s ever any tension, ensuring a peaceful environment for everyone. I’m home most of the time, so I’m always available to stick to your pet’s proper diet and administer any medication they may need. I’m flexible with pick-up times to accommodate your schedule, and I make sure that boarders in my home are treated like part of the family. Your pet will feel loved, safe, and comfortable, whether in my home or yours.
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.
“Melody was absolutely AWESOME!!! Our dog was very happy staying with her. She sent many great pictures of our dog that my kids loved. Very flexible with us. Thank you.”
