“I can’t recommend Jamie enough! Remi settled in right away and clearly made herself right at home. The regular updates and pictures meant the world to me, and communication was always fast and reliable. Will definitely be using them again!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we were nervous to leave Buzz for a week but Ritch and his family were wonderful! Buzz immediately loved playing with the kids. Also really appreciated the updates and pictures!”
“Janelle continues to be a safe, calm, caring individual where I can feel comfortable allowing my little one 🐾🐕🦺 to stay when I have to go away for some time. I super appreciate her always providing the best support and care for Storm. Always very communicative, flexible and kind. Thank you so much for keeping Storm safe.”
“Kasey took wonderful care of our Foxy for 4 days and we couldn’t have been happier. She is very thorough and very caring. I felt very comfortable entrusting Foxy with Kasy! We will definitely use her again!”
“Alexis was great with my one stay with Roxy. She took the pup on a walk and gave her lots of love and treats. She has a very loving and welcoming home that my dog felt immediately at ease. Home was clean organized and well taken care of! 5/5 will book again.”
“Tara was a wonderful sitter for our golden retriever. We traveled to the Franklin area with our family and decided last minute to find a sitter for our pup so we could explore the town and not worry about leaving him in the hotel alone. Tara gave him lots of love and snuggles and was great at communicating/ sending photos.”
“I must say this was the best dog sitting experience I have had. Austin was wonderful. His home was clean. And my dog is a big dog so there was plenty of yard for my dog to run and get exercise. As well as plenty of space indoors. He sent pictures and kept me updated on how Nova was doing. Very friendly and will definitely be using his services again.”
“Jihye & Kyoungho B. took care of my dog for 2 weeks and it was an amazing experience. They kept me updated with pictures, videos and messages daily. They are both very kind and have great, playful dogs themselves. This is my first time using this couple to take care of my dog and I highly recommend them.”
“Our dog loves Ms. Stefanie!! We could tell Ellie was so loved and cared for by her. Her home/yard is so lovely and cozy, and her communication/pictures each day made us feel so assured that Ellie was having a great time! We are so thankful to have found this amazing dogsitter!”
“Ashley was great! She sent pictures every day she watched Alphonse and took such good care of him. It made my trip much less stressful knowing she was watching him. I would definitely have Ashley watch him again.”
“🐕🦺💕 I cannot say enough good things about Michelle and Bryce who watched our fur baby Rocky when we went on a family cruise Rocky is only a year old And he's a big baby weighing about 75 lb We have never left him with a pet sitter but Michelle and Bryce seem so kind and comforting from the first conversation we had, I knew the first time I met them that they were the perfect pet sitters for us they sent us plenty of pictures and videos and Rocky felt at home from the very beginning You could tell that they had a genuine love for him I will absolutely use them anytime that I need a pet sitter in the future what's we got back to our home it actually seemed like Rocky missed Michelle and Bryce which was just gave melconfirmation that they were the perfect pet sitters for us💕”
About: I have experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, and extended stays in my home. Friends, family, and pet owners have trusted me to provide attentive and reliable care, whether that means feeding, exercising, grooming, or simply keeping their dogs company throughout the day. I love staying active and enjoy taking dogs on long walks around my neighborhood, Centennial Park, and the Vanderbilt area. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship for your dog. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. Long walks are one of my favorite activities, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I live in an apartment with access to a dog park within the community and several walkable areas nearby. I’m also close to Centennial Park and the Vanderbilt campus, which are great locations for safe, enjoyable walks. I have experience caring for dogs in my home for extended stays, as well as providing dog walking and pet-sitting services. During visits, I can provide exercise, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention to help your dog feel happy and secure while you're away.
“Such great people and wonderful with my baby boy Dade and my friends pup as well. They were able to watch them at the last minute as we traveled in for a retreat. Our pups had so much fun. I would be happy to have them watch my pup again. They were so understanding and so friendly. Thank y'all so much.”
“We had a 10/10 Rover experience with Marissa! She was super easy to coordinate with and we could tell that she took the best care of Eddie. He was so sleepy when we brought him home from playing with her pup all weekend! We will definitely be calling her again.”
“My pup can be a little anxious around new people but she warmed up to Janey right away. Janey took great care of her and sent updates everyday. Could travel easy knowing she was in good hands!”
“Ariana was awesome! Sent pictures of Yona with her Aussies daily! I could tell Yona had such a great time! I would definitely recommend Ariana to anyone looking for someone to watch their pup! Thanks so much Ariana!”

“This was our second time booking with Olivia!! She was amazing again! Very patient with us after we had a mishap on our end and also was flexible with us! She is very kind and so great with our cats!! We will be booking with her again in the future.”
“My kitty and I had a great experience with Taylor! She’s very attentive and caring as well as professional and responsible. She was always on time and provided me with detailed feedback about her visits. I know my kitty trusted her because she rolled over and over to show her tummy lol! I will definitely call on her again when I can❤️”
About: My experience with cats comes from both personal pet ownership and 10 + years of involvement in animal welfare and rescue efforts. I have volunteered with animal shelters and rescue organizations, including ProCanine, where I helped care for animals awaiting adoption and learned the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each animal’s unique personality and needs. One of the experiences that had the greatest impact on me was helping a stray cat named Jazz. I found Jazz living on the street in poor condition. He was underweight, sick, and understandably wary of people. Rather than trying to rush the process, I spent time earning his trust while providing food, water, and a safe environment. Over the following weeks, I closely monitored his condition, helped him regain his strength through proper nutrition, and made sure he received the care and attention he needed. As Jazz recovered, his personality began to shine through. The frightened cat I had first met became affectionate, playful, and eager for human companionship. Once he was healthy and thriving, I worked to find him a permanent home. Seeing Jazz go from a vulnerable stray struggling to survive to a beloved family pet was incredibly rewarding and reinforced my commitment to animal welfare. It also taught me how important patience, observation, and compassion are when caring for animals, especially those who may be anxious, recovering from illness, or adjusting to new situations. In addition to rescue work, I have experience with feeding routines, administering basic medications, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior and health, and providing enrichment and companionship. I am comfortable caring for cats of different ages, including senior cats and those who require extra attention or special care. I also have some experience assisting with veterinary care and recognizing signs that may indicate a cat needs medical attention. As a vegetarian and lifelong animal advocate, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treating them with the kindness and respect they deserve. When caring for your cat, my goal is to provide the same level of attention, safety, and affection that I would want for my own pets, while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Kait is amazing! Very communicative and punctual, sends the cutest pictures and spend the time to write up a full report on the visit. Kacey was immediately drawn to Kait, and we all know our pets have the best instincts ? Kait is fantastic, will be booking her again! Thank you for taking such great care of my girl! ?”
About: I love any and all dogs. I would love to play, walk, feed, and love on your dog when you can’t. I have grown up with dogs my entire life.. I lost my 16 year old golden and need to be around some pets! I can be very flexible with times and will work with your schedule as needed. I will communicate with you as much or as little as you would like, to take the ease of being away from your loved one more comfortable. I work full time Monday-Thursday 8-5. I can come home at lunch time for a quick potty and walk break. Weekends I’m flexible and can work around your schedule. I will follow any feeding/water schedule that you have in place. Your pet will be well taken care of! Any instructions you have, I will follow.
“Can’t say enough great things about Avery! She’s great with our 18 year old kitty who requires a daily pill and gives plenty of cuddles to all three of our cats! She’s been our go-to for multiple vacations! Highly recommended!”
About: What sets me apart is over 25 years of experience caring for my own cats and others, ensuring I understand their needs intimately. I'm skilled at administering medications and take pride in maintaining a clean and fresh environment, so your cat can feel comfortable and loved while you’re away.
“Thank you so much for watching my girls. I am so glad I found someone reliable and willing to give my Ginger her medicine so I could finally go visit my best friend! I’d been putting this trip off for a year!”
About: I’ve been fostering litters through rescues since 2021! I have experience with everything from pregnant kitties, newborn babies/birth, and elderly cats! I also have experience administering oral medication, cleaning litter boxes like you’ve never seen them cleaned, and best of all snuggling and playing with the babies :) even if all they want is to stay far away from me, I’ll love them just the same ♥️ I’d love to take care of your cat!
About: As a proud cat mom myself, I understand that no one can care for your cat quite the way you do. That’s why I approach cat sitting with the same love, patience, and attention I give to my own. I’m passionate about creating a calm and relaxing experience for every cat I care for. I also recognize that each cat has a unique personality, so I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs—whether they’re playful and social or shy and reserved. My goal is always to ensure your cat feels safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away.
“Juliet has taken care of my kitties twice now, and has been amazing! She is responsive, communicative, and responsible, and pays great attention to every detail of what I've asked her to do. She sends pictures, updates, and my kitties always look so happy playing with her in the pics. I can't recommend her enough and will continue to book whenever I'm out of town!”
About: I love dogs and have taken care of them all my life! I recently lost my companion of 12 years in April 2026, Finley, who passed onto the rainbow bridge due to old age. Finley was a 120lb gentle giant, so I am highly experienced with large breeds and dogs of all sizes. Whether you have a Great Dane or a Pomeranian, I will care for your fur baby as if they were my own. Being a dog lover while no longer having one has been heartbreaking for me, but it also means that I now have the opportunity to hangout with your pup! :) I only ask for a week in advance notice and prefer to do a meet and greet beforehand to see if we align. Take a look at my calendar and see what works for you! I work my day job Thursday through Sunday and am currently available for house sitting Sunday night through Thursday morning and drop-in visits M, T, W. I am available to come to your home or your dog is welcome to stay at mine! I live in a 900 Sq. Ft. apartment with plenty of space for a small or medium dog or a low activity older large breed. I have two orthopedic beds that are cleaned thoroughly after each stay and two dog bowls.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Forest Hills
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Robin was amazing! What a blessing that we had the chance to find her. She took great care of our 2 small dogs and made them feel welcome! She was extremely attentive in taking care of them and their needs. Thank you Robin!!”
“Levirina was amazing! I needed a last-minute dog sitter, and she came through without hesitation. She showered my dog with love and kept me updated before and throughout his stay. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares for dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. 100% highly recommend!”
About: From goats to dogs to geckos I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I would love to take care of your baby and would ensure that they get the best care possible I work mostly virtually so I am able to be home most of the day to provide care for any body who might need it! I ensure that they get the best care possible by treating them as my own. This includes plenty of play and exercise as well as lots of love
About: Dogs and cats are the center of my world! I have over 11 years of paid and volunteered hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets, including my own animals and those I’ve fostered through rescue organizations. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life but over the past 11 years I have volunteered at various animal shelters and provided the services offered on Rover through word-of-mouth and other platforms/websites! I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages—from newborns to seniors—and pets with medical conditions, special needs, and behavioral challenges. I also have experience with birds, rabbits, and some reptiles. My family owns a farm so I have experience providing care for farm animals as well! What sets me apart is my ability to quickly assess and adapt to each pet’s unique personality and requirements. I’m especially patient and attentive with nervous or reactive animals, and I’m experienced in administering medications, maintaining structured routines, and creating calm, secure environments for animals in transition. AND I just might take the cutest/funniest candid photos of your pet that you’ve ever seen. Check out my photo gallery of cute fur babies I’ve loved on! Fostering has also given me valuable experience with socialization, basic training, post-surgery care, and working with pets recovering from trauma or neglect. I genuinely love building trust with animals and helping them feel safe, which is something pet owners consistently appreciate when they leave their companions in my care. IMPORTANT NOTES: *House sitting is a great way to ensure your pet has companionship in addition to having their physical needs met (food, water, bathroom etc.) Please note that house sitting and constant care are two separate services. Constant care (aka 24/7 house sitting) means that I would only leave your pet in the event of a genuine emergency. Otherwise, all of my time will be spent at your home caring for your pet. This is priced at an hourly rate, which will vary case by case. For traditional house sitting, we will discuss a plan that you’re comfortable with for how often I will leave your pet(s), and how long they will be left alone. If your request is well in advance of the stay, I can most likely adjust my schedule to focus more on your pet(s) if needed. Please vocalize your wants, needs, and expectations. **Meet and greets strongly suggested/required in some cases if: A) You have a pet with extreme anxiety, behavioral issues, or unknown reactions to being left in the care of a new person. B) You live in an apartment complex—mainly if you feel or have been told that your complex is difficult to navigate. I don’t want a large chunk of the visit to be spent trying to fI want to be spending as much time with your pet as possible! C) You have particularly unique and/or specific preferences for your pet’s care. I love detailed instructions—actually, I prefer you share as many details with me as you’d like. No one has ever bothered me with too many details/instructions! I would love to get a feel for and see what this will look like during the meet and greet. ***as of 2/20/26 I will have moved from Franklin, TN 37069 to Nashville, TN 37215. My ability to continue services with repeat clients from before that date (without an additional distance fee) is contingent on driving time to your location. **** if you find any part of the booking is not meeting your standards/expectations, please communicate this to me so I can adjust the issue or potentially request a refund via customer support for that visit. I strive to individualize care per your requests in order to effectively meet the needs of every client. Furthermore, I want my clients to always feel heard and supported. *****Boarding and day care information if you have a medium to XL size dog, pets who don’t react well to cats, and/or you prefer a yard and extensive exercise during the booking: My family owns a large property and farm about 10 minutes from my apartment. I am able to stay there in their guest house with your pets rather than board them at my apartment. That’s why it says I live in Greenhills yet also have a yard/fence, and live on a farm. This is honestly preferable for any large dog who are guarded/activated around other dogs. Like most apartment complexes, my complex is heavily populated by dog owners and we would encounter other dogs each time we go outside. That being said, I can still board larger and/or reactive dogs, dogs who don’t mix well with cats, and dogs requiring extra exercise. We would just be staying on the farm! ____________ More about me (if you’re curious): -Outside of pet care I am a licensed social worker (non-practicing at the moment) and a part time esthetician student. My social work career mostly includes providing individual or group mental health therapy, and case management for individuals experiencing homelessness, previously incarcerated, and/or with mental health and substance use disorders. As you can probably imagine, shifting towards Rover and esthetician school has been a major change! -During my free time I love working out—Pilates, barre, & running/walking. I’m relatively athletic so I can provide exercise tailored to each pet’s needs. With pets whose owners would prefer more exercise, I am able to provide more fast paced exercise, such as speed walking or jogging. And you’ll never have to worry if your dog happens to be a larger dog and/or pulls on the leash. Still haven’t met a dog I haven’t been able to walk! -I’m very big on volunteer work since I am not currently practicing social work. I have a very nurturing side, and while I’m so excited to become an esthetician, I would love to still be engaged in service of others. Right now I am developing an outline for a “pay what you can” farm-to-table service using the products of my family’s farm. Also in progress is an incorporation of my skincare, beauty, and wellness services into a larger ministry that serves survivors of trafficking, addiction, and/or DV. -During my free time I also enjoy binging thrillers and crime dramas during my free time. I’ve been getting into true crime podcasts. So yes, I’ll most likely be listening to Dateline while driving to our meet and greet at your house when I’ve never met you before. As if I need to be any more nervous about that part of this job! Happy to do it though. I love this job. But if you do happen to want to meet at a dog park or coffee place, I won’t object! - I’m a Nashville native and the oldest of four kids in my family. I’m a bit of an extroverted introvert. I enjoy my alone time and being home as much as possible. But if you bring me around social situations, I could talk to just about anyone about anything. - I have a kitten, young adult kitty, and a senior cat living with me full time. I have a senior (family) dog living with me only a few months out of the year when my parents snowbird in Florida. However, due to his recent decline in health/mobility, he most likely won’t be living with me in Winter 2026, unfortunately. I commute to a night school M-Th 5:30pm-10pm and work another job remotely. A few days each month, I work in person and won’t have much availability on those days. I typically know my schedule 1-3 weeks out, so scheduling conflicts are adjustable if I’m already available for the majority of the booking. Last minute bookings are typically contingent on flexibility and/or my being available without having to cancel appointments or compromise the quality of another pre-existing booking. Rover is my main obligation outside of school. I prioritize my rover bookings over most things. Alongside client satisfaction, self-care is imperative to me. While I am finishing school over the next few months, I typically will not accept early morning bookings unless there is flexibility with the times. However, I am able to offer late night visits on days off from school due to my routine sleep schedule. Quite a few of my repeat clients work night shifts and I’ve provided care for their pets between 11pm-4am. I try to avoid committing to any visits after 4am and before 10am so that I can keep a consistent sleep schedule, and be punctual for you! When caring for pets, safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions from the owner, including dietary needs, medications, walking preferences, and any behavioral considerations. I have gained a good amount of experience over the last few years in the area of taking care of senior pets and pre-adoption pets. My pup, Pasco, is currently receiving medications and palliative care, so I have personally experience in this area. Before adopting my kitten, Ocean, I recently fostered three pre-adopted kittens that needed bottle-feeding and gentle help with passing stool. I make sure the home environment is pet-proofed—keeping hazards like wires, cleaning products, and choking risks out of reach. I also monitor pets closely for any signs of distress, illness, or unusual behavior and will notify the owner immediately if anything seems off. Building trust with both the pet and their owner is equally important. I take time to get to know each animal’s temperament, routines, and comfort zones so they feel safe and secure in my presence. Whether in my home or theirs, I maintain a calm, structured environment, offer plenty of positive attention, and create a consistent routine that pets can rely on. Regarding trust and safety, as a sitter I also request that you disclose any video and/or audio surveillance inside your home before officially booking with me. It goes against Rover’s guidelines (and federal law) to not disclose indoor surveillance. I recognize that it is part of today’s culture to have at least some form of video surveillance on one’s property. 90% of clients I work with have some form of video surveillance. As an owner myself, who also hires Rover sitters to care for my pets, I understand there’s an element of trust that has not yet been built, in addition to the general security concerns associated with being out of town. I am not against video surveillance and wouldn’t turn away a client for having a couple cameras. However, excessive surveillance throughout the inside of your home is not something I’m comfortable with, personally. I have no doubt you’ll find someone who doesn’t mind, but I am not that person. For in-home services, I’m respectful of the client’s space—leaving things clean and secure, and keeping communication open with daily updates, photos, and check-ins so the owner feels confident their pet is in good hands.
About: Animals like me and I like them. It’s about mutual respect, I think. I’m a normal guy living on the west side and I’m walking puppies of all sizes and ages and breeds.

“Megan is a gem, from the moment I contacted her to care for my dog she was nothing but kind and professional. She provided great updates throughout his stay and I felt my fur baby was in good hands. Its clear she cares for animals. I will definitely be using her again.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and taken care of them through every age, from puppy to senior. I am experienced with senior dogs and understand their special needs and more than happy to help how I can. I work from home, so I’m always with your dog when I have them over. This also allows me to be flexible for potty breaks and walks. I am also able to visit them in your home if needed during lunch hours or any time after 4pm. Weekends I am completely free. Any pets at my place are free to roam as they please. They can even lay on my bed if that’s cozy for them. I do not have a yard, but my apartments do have an area outside for me to take them on potty breaks. Very receptive to any instructions you may have.
About: I've taken care of many different types of animals since I was 10 years old. I have recently watched my neighbors dogs for weeks on end. I have a great joy for animals and feel they bring me as much if not more joy than I might them. I'm about to be on summer break, so I will have flexibility to drop in whenever needed to take care your pet. I'm an early riser so I can always take them out early as desired. I am very dependable and consistent in taking care of your pets needs. I have a wonderful hiking area behind my house I'd be willing to take your pet to if needed. I love to stay active so taking your pets on a walk is enjoyable to me. I will also have my daughters on occasion during the summer and they will gladly love on your pets as well :)
“Alexis and her family were wonderful with my 7 month old mini poodle pup. We ended up in a big jam and needed last minute day care for four days. I sent an inquiry at 8:30 the night before, and Alexis responded within a couple of minutes! She was also great at reporting in and sending photos. My pup was well cared for and had a wonderful time playing with their darling young son and sweet dog. Big thanks to Alexis and her terrific family!!”
“Xue was great, Hoochu immediately loved her! She was very good at communicating everything and she was able to take care of him even though it was a very short notice. I will definitely book with her again!!”
“Emily took wonderful care of my fur baby, Sugar, while we were visiting Nashville. She has a large fenced yard where the dogs can play, and I appreciated the extra safety measures she took. Emily put Sugar’s collar on in addition to her harness in case she somehow got loose, which showed me she was thinking ahead and treating Sugar like one of her own. Before I left, Emily carefully introduced Sugar to the other dogs and made sure everyone got along and that Sugar was comfortable. That gave me tremendous peace of mind. I felt completely comfortable leaving my girl in her care, and it was obvious Sugar was well loved and well cared for while we were away. I would happily trust Emily with Sugar again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and conscientious pet sitter.”
“Jonathan is amazing! He watched our two energetic 8 month old pups during the daytime for two days in a row and was wonderful! The pups had a great time exploring his large backyard, getting loved on inside, and receiving a structured walk each day. Jonathan handled our worries with ease and sent many video updates throughout the day which made me very happy. Jonathan also has a training background and is very knowledgeable and helpful being our pups are young and still learning a lot. Our pups came home happy and fulfilled. We look forward to using Jonathan more in the future.”

“Kait is AMAZING. She came to the rescue with a last minute dog walking request and my pup LOVED her. She took so many photos, left a detailed report, and was super communicative and responsive. I can’t wait to book another walk with her in the future so that my dog can see his new friend!”
“She is amazing. Very responsive. Sends lots of pictures and updates about the walk. I appreciate getting know how long the walk was, the distance, and if they went to the bathroom. She goes above and beyond with washing dog bowls and even changing his clothes”

About: I’ve cared for my own poochon for the past 6 years, which has given me lots of hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets plenty of love and attention.

Being around animals genuinely makes me happy, and I will always treat your pet like they are my own! I am available to dog walk Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sunday’s!

About: I have been around dogs my entire life and currently live with five of them, including three senior dogs and two puppies. Most of the dogs I’ve had throughout my life have been rescues. Caring for dogs of all ages has given me experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and handling a variety of needs and personalities. I volunteered at the Lovejoy Foundation in California for about five years, walking and taking care of sheltered dogs. I also walked dogs for neighbors when I was younger, which helped me gain experience caring for pets outside my own family. I love animals so much and am passionate about providing them with the care and attention they deserve. I can't wait to meet and care for your furry friend! I am home for the summer and, as a collegiate athlete, I maintain a training schedule, but it is very flexible. This allows me plenty of time throughout the day to provide adequate care and visit multiple times if needed. I am committed to being dependable and ensuring your pet is well cared for while you're away. Because I currently have my own five dogs, I am not able to provide pet care in my own home. However, I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and caring for your pet in the comfort of your own home. Having cared for dogs my entire life, including both puppies and senior dogs, I am comfortable handling a variety of situations and am committed to following any specific instructions or routines you provide.
“Taylor is one of the best pet care professionals I’ve had the pleasure of working with. She’s communicative, empathetic, and understands our four-legged friends needs while we are working. She takes the extra time and effort to ensure their needs are met and keeps their humans in the loop. I know when Paisley is with Taylor she is well cared for and more importantly well loved.”
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I have 5 dogs of my own and absolutely love dogs. I know how to work well with young dogs and senior dogs. I’m currently on summer break from college. I have a lot of free time during the days and absolutely love dogs and taking care of them. As someone who has experience caring for multiple dogs of different ages and personalities, I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to laid-back senior dogs. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, secure, and stress-free.
“Carey was very attentive, taking notes before walking my pup and was very communicative throughout! My dog was very happy after and I could tell she was well cared for! Highly recommend!”
“Josephine is an excellent communicator. She provides updates on my fur baby while I’m at work and I get the cutest pictures while they are out on walks. It’s brings me peace of mind knowing she is being well taken care of.”
About: Need a flexible, helping hand for your beloved fur-babies? I'm your gal! I grew up with dogs, and have years of experience pet-sitting for dogs, cats, rabbits, and even ferrets! :) I love all animals & open to new ones too (minus snakes). During the school year, I work FT at an elementary school, but I love to petsit during my summers off—but I am still available during the school year, after school hours and weekends. During the summer, I’m off of work (I work at an elementary school) so I’m flexible when it comes to dropping in or spending time with your pet! I'm available FT during July through the beginning of August, until school begins. After that, my availability changes to after school hours and weekends. Whether it’s a drop in for food, walks, or cuddles, or if your need is me staying overnight—I’m open! I am available to do drop ins or overnight stays with your pet, depending on your need. I’ve done both and can do multiple check-in for feedings, walks, etc. during the day. And/or staying overnight with them if you’re out of town!
About: I care for pets the same way I care for my own family, with patience, reliability, and real affection. I pay close attention to the details that matter to each pet such as favorite toys, routines, quirks, energy levels, or comfort needs. I am especially good with puppies who need extra guidance and consistency and with senior pets who benefit from a slower pace and a gentle touch. I make it a priority to communicate with you often so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel at ease while you are away. What truly sets me apart is the combination of responsibility and genuine love behind everything I do which helps pets feel comfortable, understood, and cared for every moment they are with me. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already build my days around structure and responsibility as a Lipscomb student. My class schedule gives me plenty of flexibility for regular walks, feeding times, play breaks, and check ins. I enjoy starting my mornings with movement, so taking pets out early fits perfectly. I also have long breaks between classes which allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day. On weekends I am even more available, so I can focus fully on longer walks, outings, and extra attention. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, so it feels like a natural and fulfilling part of my everyday routine. I live in an apartment that is clean, comfortable, and set up to be a safe space for pets. When caring for pets in my home I follow whatever routines they are used to, keep their environment calm, and make sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I am mindful of their comfort and always keep their feeding, crate, and potty schedules consistent with what they know. When I am caring for pets in a client’s home I make sure to respect their space and follow their established routines exactly. I keep everything clean, stick to the instructions you provide, and give your pet the same level of love and attention they would get if you were home. Whether I am in my own apartment or in your home my focus is always on making your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for.
About: I have taken care of a large variety of animals throughout my lifetime. My sweet childhood dog, Fluffy, lived a beautiful 17 years, whom I just said goodbye to. In addition to her, I have taken care of many local family friends dogs with various size/ages/medical needs. I am currently in between jobs and am available during weekdays during the daytime. Open to longer/overnight needs for short periods. Currently have generally open availability. I am unable to have dogs at my residence, but am able to travel to residences. I am able to provide services that may be necessary for your pup and willing to learn whatever works best for them!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and taken care of them through every age, from puppy to senior. I am experienced with senior dogs and understand their special needs and more than happy to help how I can. I work from home, so I’m always with your dog when I have them over. This also allows me to be flexible for potty breaks and walks. I am also able to visit them in your home if needed during lunch hours or any time after 4pm. Weekends I am completely free. Any pets at my place are free to roam as they please. They can even lay on my bed if that’s cozy for them. I do not have a yard, but my apartments do have an area outside for me to take them on potty breaks. Very receptive to any instructions you may have.

I am using him back to back weekends!”
