About: My approach to cats is simple — I respect their space and their rhythm. Most of the cats I’ve cared for over the years have preferred quiet consistency over attention, and that suits my temperament well. I focus on keeping their environment steady — fresh food and water, clean litter, and a calm presence that doesn’t disrupt their routine. I’ve found that cats tend to warm up on their own terms when you don’t force interaction. I’m patient, observant, and mindful of subtle changes in behavior or appetite that could signal something off. Whether they choose to stay distant or keep me company while I’m there, I make sure they’re cared for and comfortable.
“Very good dog sitter. Did really good with our big dogs. Very communicative and really cares about them. Very trust worthy. We did not have to worry about her during our time away from home.”
“Thank you, Kirsten, for looking after my dear companion in my absence. The daily notes and images really helped me feel at ease. Kirsten is personable, competent and, above all, reliable. My kitty warmed to her immediately.”

“Andrew provided an outstanding day care experience for my pup, Louis. Andrew is excellent with communication (with photos/updates), has a genuine love for animals, was able to provide Louis with a back yard to romp around in, & he even had a couple of buddies for Louis to play with as well. Smooth handoffs & a great experience for the pup as well as myself!”

“Amazing experience!! Needed last minute doggie daycare while I was away at a baby shower for 4-5 hours which was longer than I wanted to leave my 8 week old Winston in a kennel. Rachel was available and able to help. So blessed and thankful to be able to do what I needed to do without worrying about him. He had fun, she fed him when he got hungry, and he slept until I got back. She sent updated pics too which eased my mind he was in great hands! What a blessing and lifesaver she is. Will definitely be using her service again.”
“Stephanie was very kind and attentive to Biscotti's food, drink, and activity needs. She monitored B's social activity with her dog and two other "guest Rovers" diligently. Biscotti was calm, joyful, and appropriately tired after a full day of socialization. I would highly recommend Stephanie.”

About: Hi! I’m Keira, a 21 year old lifelong dog lover from Chattanooga (Soddy-Daisy/Lakesite area) who’s completely obsessed with giving dogs the best care possible! I only take one house-sitting booking at a time so I can give your home and your pets my complete love and attention. Your fur babies will be my whole world while you’re away — I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and very loved every single day! I had the privilege of caring for my soul dog Charley (a mini schnauzer) for almost 10 years. During that time I learned so much about loving and caring for dogs — including giving daily subcutaneous fluids when he needed them. Because of him, I’m especially gentle and patient with senior dogs, but I also adore puppies and their endless energy! I’m very loving, attentive, and flexible with scheduling. Whether you need daily walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your fur baby will get lots of cuddles, playtime, and genuine affection while you’re away. I’d be honored to care for your dog (or cat! I’m very good with cats although I do have fewer years of experience with them!) Feel free to message me with any questions 💕 I’m currently between jobs so all of my focus is on animal care! I have a super open schedule so your furry friend will get so much attention and love!! I can’t offer care from my home, I live with too many people and would hate to stress out your pet, but I can come and stay in your home, whether it be overnight or drop-ins. I’m very good about feeding on time, watching the water bowl, giving frequent potty breaks, and taking a few walks throughout the day. I will also adhere to any special requests you may have for your pup!
“JaNiya was amazing with my dog, Goose! I can always tell if he’s been well taken care of by how calm he is when I return from work. She even gave some love to my cat, too!”
“Journey has taken care of my pup several times now. She communicates well and has been available for a few last minute requests which is super helpful for my unpredictable work schedule. She’s great!”
About: Mi, my name is Sam! I have recently moved back to the US and am looking for more ways to cover rent. I have grown up with pets my entire life and I currently have two cats and three betta fish tanks. I grew up volunteering at my local humane society and have pet sit mostly for family, friends, and co-workers in the past. I have taken care of cats, small dogs, big dogs, puppies, elder dogs, and more. I am experienced with many different training routines, the most extensive being my friends hunting dog who had to have regular and intense training everyday from basic commands to complex routines. Also, no worries if your pet is a little "high maintenance", whatever your loved one needs I am ready to provide. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy and you feel assured of your pet's care. I am currently job hunting, so I do not know exactly what my schedule will look like at this exact moment. That said, once we communicate the best needs for your pet, I promise to only go for jobs where I can assure that your pet can follow their regular schedule. I can assure that when I come to your house, I will make sure to leave your home exactly as I found it (as I have many years experience house sitting, with many people joking about how "it was like they weren't even there"). I am currently job hunting so I have lots of availability as of right now. Once I am in a more stable working schedule, I will let you know as well as update my profile accordingly. Due to my schedule freedom right now, I am able to fully commit to your pets care. I will always do my best to make sure your pet feels as comfortable and as close to their normal routine as is possible. If it has not been communicated to me before your departure, I will always double check with you before doing something (ex: going to a park or on a hike, playing a certain way, unknown foods, etc.) and will keep you updated on anything I observe or experience.
About: I have spent the last 12 years caring for several families’ pets. I have spent time caring for small dogs as well as larger more active dogs. I have cared for many dogs with specific eating routines and meds. I have cared for multiple dogs in one house as well as a mix of dogs and cats together. I love making new fur friends and getting them outside to play and exercise. I have a small (10lb) dog named Joy who loves making friends and has come with me for many of my sitting times but in her older age she stays home in her comfy bed. Most of my experience is with dogs but I have cared for cats and have one of my own. My cat’s name is Chaos, so yes, I live with Joy and Chaos in my life. Chaos has been apart of my family for 9 years now. I will be in Cody, Wyoming for several months and would love to be of service to you. Please don’t hesitate to reach out. Joy and Chaos are not with me. I am always respectful and careful in everyone’s home and with all animals. I understand that animals are our family members and I show them the love and care they need.
About: I love animal behavior and training. I personally trained our service dog, Crew. He goes just about everywhere with us- trails, stores, restaurants, hotels, airplanes. In my neighborhood growing up, people would call me whenever they went away and wanted animal care. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, and rabbits. I had my Siberian husky for 16 great years. I loved training her. I considered stuffing pillows with the volume of fur I brushed out of her coat! I can help with puppy and obedience training. I can help with advanced canine skills, including scent work, service work, and public access. I can administer medication. I can bathe and brush. I can play and have a great time with your pet! Something else? Just ask me! My wife and I keep a remote work situation which enables flexibility. Let me know what your specific needs are and I’ll be happy to coordinate with you. Consistency is key for animals. I aim to maintain the status quo that your pets are used to in their home. I welcome owner instructions and preferences. If crating a dog, I prefer to do so after exercise and potty.

We love to play fetch on pretty days and on rainy days we have tug-a-war wars with the resident champ Zeus 😂 We do require kenneled bedtime due to our baby co-sleeping at the moment. We have a flexible schedule, so we enjoy having the pups to fill our downtime. Plus our babies really enjoy having visitors to play with! Casey is a stay at home mom and Luigi is in office daily. We stay strict to follow all parents guidelines for keeping their babies on their regular schedule. We think it’s most important we keep the babies on the regular schedule/daily happenings

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals. I have grown up with 2–3 dogs at a time throughout my life, as well as cats, so I am very comfortable with the daily responsibilities that come with pet care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have pet-sat for my neighbors' animals on numerous occasions, giving me experience with different personalities and routines. While I am not a professional trainer, I have taught my own dogs basic commands and good habits. I understand the importance of being patient, attentive, and dependable, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I am currently home for the summer and have open availability. I am about to be a senior at Michigan State University, but while I am home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Whether it's morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or check-ins throughout the day, I am able to be reliable and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them is something I genuinely look forward to. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so their pets feel comfortable and secure. I ensure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and companionship. I also make sure the home stays clean and tidy by cleaning up after the pets and keeping their living areas organized. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I carefully follow any specific instructions provided by the owner and provide updates when requested. My goal is to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I have always been an animal lover since a very young age. I always had pets growing up and helped with their care. I worked as a grooming assistant while I was in college and absolutely loved it. I could provide one on one care for that animal and love. I sometimes wish I would had went into that field of work, because I definitely have that passion. I provide a laid back environment for the pet, so they can be comfortable. I encourage bringing their toys and maybe a blankie so they have something familiar. I enjoy going on walks and playing fetch with them. I would make a great sitter or walker for your beloved pet. Thank you! My schedule as of right now is mostly flexible. I work for myself so I am in and out throughout the day. The longest I’m gone at a time is usually under 4 hours. I have several animals at my home currently so staying at your home to care for your baby is preferred. So let’s get you booked!!
About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. At the age of 15 I began volunteering at local shelters as a kennel worker, and have also been working at Middle Valley Animal hospital in the kennel and shortly as a vet assistant since 2022. I've also cared for family and friends pets over the last years and uncovered a passion for spending time with their furry friends in nature. Dogs of any age welcome. I'm currently available anytime the sun is out! I work third shift so I'm happy to take your furry friend out on an adventure anytime of day I can easily adjust my care plan to your individual pets needs. I understand pets have their own routines and I'm more than willing to cater to your best friend
