Highly-rated overnight sitters - Lyles
“Absolutely wonderful! Victoria had great communication with us and took such good care of our golden retriever. She sent us many pictures to keep us informed of how much fun she was having! Our dog has pretty much been sleeping for the past 24 hours since she got home, so we know she had a blast and played hard!!!”
“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.”
“Christy was amazing as always! Zelda had the best time and we received daily pictures and updates. So glad to have found someone we fully trust to watch our fur baby ❤️”
“Ballie is AWESOME!! We can tell that Dolly was loved and cared for just like she was one of her own animals. So glad that we found someone to take care of pet while we are away! Besides letting us know how she is doing everyday our dog took to her like she had known her forever which made leaving there for the time so much easier! Cannot recommend more!”
“Angie was great! She sent me so many pictures of Alli and made sure to let me know how Alli was doing. Alli seemed to enjoy herself, I would use Angie’s services again!”
“Our pup Miles had an amazing time away with Huri! It was his birthday and she went above and beyond to treat him on his special day and he made a few puppy friends!”
“Lavar & Amber took such great care of our rambunctious 15-week old puppy. They kept us informed on his visit and sent plenty of photos to ensure he was well taken care of! Would highly recommend booking them!”
“Deborah was absolutely amazing with my pups! I’m so happy that I found her! One of my pups has quite a few quirks and Deborah was so patient and kind with her 🥹 my pups were part of the family over the holiday, they loved our pups like their own! What a relief to find such a kind and caring sitter. Not only was she amazing with the dogs, she was also so patient with me having multiple travel delays. She is so sweet and understanding! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!!”
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care my dogs received from Lisa! They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. Lisa made sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention — even making sure they got a quick walk after the rain. Communication was smooth throughout, and I felt totally at ease while I was away. I’d absolutely trust her again for future stays. Highly recommend!”
“Jamie was great and very responsive. This was our first time leaving Leo since we adopted him and felt very comfortable with him being there for 10 days. I definitely would leave Leo there again and I will.”
“Alexa welcomed our two corgis into her home while we were out of town, this was the first time they have stayed with someone other than family. Her communication was great, and her and her husband certainly spoiled our dogs and loved on them just as if they were home with us. We can’t thank them enough! Highly recommended!”
“Juniper had such a great time. She came home exhausted and happy. We could tell that she was well taken care of and loved on especially by the sweet kiddos. We will definitely bring her back :)”
“We are so thankful for Candice and Matt, and their sweet children, for giving our two pups a fun, safe and loving vacation home while we were out of town! One of our pups has a severe allergy and Candice and Matt were very comfortable and had experience with how to handle a potential issue, which really put our minds at ease. We knew our pups were in the best hands! They also sent updates and photos every day, and we were so happy to see our pups running around their beautiful yard and fitting right into the family. We absolutely recommend Candice and Matt to care for your furbabies!”
“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.”
“Madison did a great job with maisy on a long stay! She sent lots of pics and maisy loved snuggling with her. Maisy got sick during the stay and Madison took care of everything. This is especially helpful because I was out of the country and couldn’t be reached.”
“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our teacup chihuahua. He is 16, blind and hard of hearing which required a little extra precaution. Her nursing background definitely put us at ease. She sent pictures to us while we were out of the country and let ys know how he was doing. She took him for walks in a doggy stroller and gave him lots of love. She also administered his meds. I would highly recommend Melissa to care for your fur baby! We will absolutely use her services again. Thank you Melissa!”
“Jackie was absolutely amazing with our baby. She treated him like a member of her family and I felt very comfortable leaving him. I highly recommend her to watch your fur babies. I know she will be my go to when I need a sitter.”

“I love how passionate Carly is about taking care of fur babies. She has so much patience with my shy babies! I couldn’t possibly ask for anyone who’d be more perfect to watch my kiddos now that I have found her. This was my second time working with her and she continues to impress me. It’s very comforting knowing that my babies are in such amazing hands when we go on vaca.”

“Marissa did a great job house/cat sitting while we were away for a few days. She was punctual, communicated with us how things were going, and most importantly, took great care of our cat!!”

As lifelong pet owners, we’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals over the years. Madison also participated in FFA and 4-H for three years, gaining hands-on experience with animal care and responsibility. Today, our family includes a spunky black cat named Binx, who keeps us entertained every day. We also have an 11-year-old in our home who loves animals and is respectful of pets and their needs. We pride ourselves on being honest, reliable, and communicative. Whether you’re away for a long day, a weekend trip, or an extended vacation, we’ll keep you updated with messages, photos, and check-ins so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

Every pet is unique, and we strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. We look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I work full-time during the week, while my mom is a stay-at-home mom who homeschools my younger brother. This allows us to provide consistent care and flexibility throughout the day. My mom is available for daytime visits, potty breaks, feedings, walks, and companionship, while I handle morning, evening, and weekend care. Together, we make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout their stay. Because we work as a team, your pets are rarely without someone checking in on them, and we can easily accommodate most feeding schedules, medication routines, and exercise needs. Caring for animals is something we genuinely enjoy, so spending time with pets is already a regular and rewarding part of our weekly routine Whether we are caring for pets in our home or in a client’s home, our goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In a client’s home, we follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication administration, litter box cleaning, and any special needs. We know pets are often most comfortable in their familiar environment, so we work to maintain their routine while providing plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. We also send regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. For pets staying in our home, they become part of the family. We provide a safe, supervised environment with a securely fenced yard for outdoor play and exercise. Pets receive plenty of attention, enrichment, potty breaks, and comfortable places to rest. We carefully monitor interactions with other animals and can separate pets when needed to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. Every pet is unique, and we take the time to get to know their personality, preferences, and needs so they receive individualized care and plenty of love while you’re away

About: I have 5 dogs that are my kids. I am a stay at home dog mom. Your dog will be my dog while in my care. 4 are small and 1 medium sized. They are all fixed, UTD on shots and heart worm. All adopted from different states and shelters. They are between the ages of 10 and 12, and 1 senior who we believe is about 16. They are only crated at night if I go out for an extended period of time, except Charlie, the old man, he is out 24/7. We live on a half acre, fully fenced back yard (5 ft aluminum with puppy pickets). They can get on the furniture if they want and I have dog beds throughout the house. My dogs typically get on very well with other dogs. I dog sit 2 dogs in my home a few times a year for a few days to a week at a time. 1 medium and 1 large. I have fostered various dogs for Big Fluffy Dog Rescue in the past and I have helped and run adoption events at Petco for about a year for Simpson County Animal Shelter/Friends of the Shelter in Franklin KY. I am a stay at home dog mom. I can pet sit any time of the day or week, for just a few hours, a day or overnights. I only leave the house to go to the store or run a few errands. Typically not out for extended periods. If I am dog sitting, I prefer to be at home as often as possible. I am always around my dogs. I have dog beds in all areas of the house. I keep an eye on them when they go outside. I play with them regularly. When I get a new foster dog, I usually will keep them leashed for a little while until they get acclimated and used to the other dogs. You, my customer are more than welcome to come into my house and yard and meet myself, and my dogs.
“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: Every dog is different, and I believe their care should be too. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether your dog is playful, laid back, anxious, a puppy, or a senior, I’m happy to adjust my care to fit their individual needs. I understand that leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, and I do everything I can to make the experience comfortable for both you and your dog. Whether you have a calm companion or a high-energy working breed that thrives on activity and engagement, I’m happy to tailor my care to fit their individual needs. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first. I never assume unfamiliar dogs will get along simply because they’re friendly. Introductions are done slowly, interactions are always supervised, and I’m happy to separate dogs whenever needed. Every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and respected during their stay.
About: I have been volunteering at a dog shelter for the past 4 years and it has been wonderful, I got to indulge myself in the love and care for dogs, cats and other animals and i got to understand the love and attention they need. It made me realize how amazing animals are to us. I also eventually dog sit for multiple people, and dog walk around my neighborhood. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 5-5:30. As I am in school and im on the bowling team for school. I have two precious Cavapoo and they are super playful and they love company, if there is another dog at my house I typically take them out on a leash just for safety purposes. If there is anything else people would like me to do i would be understanding. Kennel, puppy pee pad, etc.
“Jamie was a wonderful sitter ❤️ she was attentive and gracious and kept my puppy safe.

About: Hi, I’m Carrie! 🐾 Animals have always been at the heart of my life. For over 2 years I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. That hands-on experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of treating every pet like family. Currently, I’m home full-time caring for my sweet senior dog, Sophia (15 years old, living with Cushing’s Disease). Making sure she is comfortable and loved has given me an even deeper appreciation for the trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. Because I’m at home, I can dedicate all the time and attention your dog deserves. Here’s what you can expect when your pet stays with me: Lots of love & attention – every pet is treated like my own family. No crating (unless required by you or for very brief times when I must step out). Safe, comfortable environment tailored to your pet’s needs. Experience with senior and special-needs dogs who may require extra patience and care. Regular updates & photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, snuggles on the couch, or simply a calm and caring presence, I’m here to provide the same quality of care I give my own beloved Sophia. Your pup’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. ❤️ I'm currently out of work to care for my senior girl, Sophia, that has had some complications with Cushing's Disease. Your pet will be under my full-time loving care at my home, or in your home. I offer both services. Your pet will only be crated when I need to step out momentarily. In my home, pets are part of the family! 🐾 I have a fully fenced one-acre yard where they can safely run and play, and when the weather’s nice, we’ll spend lots of time outside together. Indoors, your pup will be right by my side, whether that’s hanging out in the kitchen watching me cook or relaxing nearby. I don’t crate unless you request it or for brief times when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to their routine and give them plenty of attention, exercise, and love so they feel safe and comfortable until you’re back.
“Jennifer and Michael are fabulous and very accommodating with my schedule. They treat Mack like one of their own and part of the family. I would highly recommend them!”
“Ute was great proving day care for our new puppy. As he was in a new home and trying to adapt to life without his mom and littermates, Ute went the extra mile to attend to his needs as a young puppy. I highly recommend Ute!”

About: I have been a lifelong dog owner, caring for multiple breeds including dachshunds, chocolate lab, beagle mixes, Doberman, Rhodesian ridgeback mix, and mini schnauzer. I have hands-on experience providing end-of-life care for a senior dog with osteosarcoma, demonstrating compassion and patience in difficult situations. Currently, I care for a 5-year-old neutered Doberman and an 8-year-old spayed Mini Schnauzer. My work-from-home schedule allows me a flexible schedule for your pet’s supervision. This deep personal experience, combined with my flexible availability ensures professional and cozy care tailored to each dog's needs. Since I work from home, taking care of dogs fits perfectly into my day. I’m able to check in on them frequently and give them plenty of breaks and playtime. I make sure they get regular exercise and lots of affection between work tasks. Because I’m home almost 24/7, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit each dog’s unique needs and routines, making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away. I ensure that all dogs are treated with love and respect. Letting them know they’re safe and that everything is okay while their humans are away is of utmost importance to me.
About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life, and growing up my father was a dog trainer so have lots of experience in dog care and training. I also worked in veterinary medicine for 6 years and have lots of veterinary knowledge. I worked in an emergency clinic for over a year and would be able to handle any emergency that could occur. I also have experience with puppies and with senior/special needs animal care. I have pets of my own and always love taking them on walks and would love to be able to do that for other peoples pets as well. I have a very open schedule as long as I know in advance. I am free most days and have very open availability through the day. I always try and learn what the pet(s) are used to and attempt to emulate that. Pets can be protective in their home so I always try and make them as comfortable as possible.
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!

“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 live out on a 90 acre farm. I dog sit for friends, family etc. I love animals so much and take the best care of them like they’re my own . Plenty of references if you need them . Your fur baby will love playing around in the fenced in yard, going on walks or whatever else you need me to do . I am available to watch your pet and take them out for play time and potty breaks as much as you need me too . Just let me know ! I have a fenced in yard out in the country and can take care of your fur baby however you need ! I’m available to also do pick ups and drop offs if you need them.
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely care about every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient with shy dogs, energetic enough to keep active pups entertained, and attentive to senior dogs who may need extra care and a slower pace. I provide plenty of updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your fur baby. Since I don’t currently work outside the home, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine and allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stick closely to their normal routine, and accommodate different care needs, whether that’s daytime visits, evening care, or overnight stays. I enjoy being hands-on with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I have 3 very friendly puppies to keep your pup entertained. If caring for pets in my home, safety comes first. I keep the environment clean, secure, and supervised, and I make sure introductions with other animals are handled carefully if needed. I always prioritize a calm environment, safe play, and making sure each pet has a comfortable place to rest.
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 trained my first dog as a puppy 14 years ago and then got another puppy in 2020 and trained it basic commands as well. I love all fur babies and am committed to providing the best care! I currently work in the office Monday through Wednesday, but I have flexibility to take a lunch break during any hour of the day to care for pets. I’m happy to accommodate specific needs like feeding schedules or other routines. From Thursday to Sunday, my schedule is completely open, so I can fully adapt to your pet’s needs. I have a backyard, access to a dog park, and a nearby walking trail. Morning walks are part of the daily routine, along with a consistent feeding schedule, playtime, and plenty of bathroom breaks. I provide every pet with the same attentive care and love 😊
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind (including special needs) since I was very young, from having my own to walking and feeding neighbor’s dogs or caring for them when they went away. My first job was at a Doggy Daycare and I have worked as a groomer and had my own Pet Care business for 10 years in Massachusetts up until I just moved to Nashville in June. I currently have open availability for all your pet care needs! Any days and times needed I can fit into my schedule with no problem. I have many former client’s numbers I can always provide for recommendations if needed. I stay at your home with your pet(s) so they can stay in their own environment comfortably and provide them with all the care and love until you get back! We will go over their needs and schedule beforehand so everything will be all set.
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.

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!
“Ashley has been a repeat walker for my foster Bull Terrier Ezequiel & she is so accommodating in every possible way. She even gives him fresh water & let’s him pee wherever he feels like marking his territory. That’s is a lot of compassion and patience. Thank you so much Ashley! You’re the BEST!”
About: Embark on a worry-free journey knowing your furry friends are in loving hands with my comprehensive pet care services. From playful walks and engaging playtime sessions to attentive feeding schedules and diligent medication administration, I ensure your pets receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a cuddly cat, or energetic dog, I tailor the approach to suit their unique needs, providing you with peace of mind while you’re away. As the owner of a 3 year old rambunctious goldendoodle and a kitty myself I make sure to treat your furry friends as my own. After all, your pets aren’t just animals – they’re cherished family members, and their happiness and well-being are my top priority. I’m currently working full time, however I have every Saturday,Sunday, and Monday off. I have open availability all 3 days. I could also possibly be available week nights if a drop in is needed. I also have open availability for house sitting including week nights upon request. As a pet owner myself to a goldendoodle and 3 cats I prefer to watch clients pets in their own home. I find that pets tend to tolerate a familiar setting, especially in possible stressful situations like their owner being away.

“Absolutely wonderful! Victoria had great communication with us and took such good care of our golden retriever. She sent us many pictures to keep us informed of how much fun she was having! Our dog has pretty much been sleeping for the past 24 hours since she got home, so we know she had a blast and played hard!!!”
“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.”
“Christy was amazing as always! Zelda had the best time and we received daily pictures and updates. So glad to have found someone we fully trust to watch our fur baby ❤️”
“Ballie is AWESOME!! We can tell that Dolly was loved and cared for just like she was one of her own animals. So glad that we found someone to take care of pet while we are away! Besides letting us know how she is doing everyday our dog took to her like she had known her forever which made leaving there for the time so much easier! Cannot recommend more!”
“Angie was great! She sent me so many pictures of Alli and made sure to let me know how Alli was doing. Alli seemed to enjoy herself, I would use Angie’s services again!”
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care my dogs received from Lisa! They came home happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. Lisa made sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and got plenty of attention — even making sure they got a quick walk after the rain. Communication was smooth throughout, and I felt totally at ease while I was away. I’d absolutely trust her again for future stays. Highly recommend!”
“Jamie was great and very responsive. This was our first time leaving Leo since we adopted him and felt very comfortable with him being there for 10 days. I definitely would leave Leo there again and I will.”
“Alexa welcomed our two corgis into her home while we were out of town, this was the first time they have stayed with someone other than family. Her communication was great, and her and her husband certainly spoiled our dogs and loved on them just as if they were home with us. We can’t thank them enough! Highly recommended!”
“Juniper had such a great time. She came home exhausted and happy. We could tell that she was well taken care of and loved on especially by the sweet kiddos. We will definitely bring her back :)”
“We are so thankful for Candice and Matt, and their sweet children, for giving our two pups a fun, safe and loving vacation home while we were out of town! One of our pups has a severe allergy and Candice and Matt were very comfortable and had experience with how to handle a potential issue, which really put our minds at ease. We knew our pups were in the best hands! They also sent updates and photos every day, and we were so happy to see our pups running around their beautiful yard and fitting right into the family. We absolutely recommend Candice and Matt to care for your furbabies!”
“Madison did a great job with maisy on a long stay! She sent lots of pics and maisy loved snuggling with her. Maisy got sick during the stay and Madison took care of everything. This is especially helpful because I was out of the country and couldn’t be reached.”
About: I’m a homeowner with a huge fenced in backyard. I WFH so potty breaks and play time is not a problem. I have a 70lb golden retriever who loves to play. I take my own dog for a minimum of two walks a day. Most days I get out three or four times. I have a huge fenced in backyard for in between walks. I have a very sweet 5 year old golden who loves other dogs. I have experimented caring for super young all the way to end of life care for senior dogs.
“This was our first time using Serenity and she was amazing with her dog Bambi. She contacted us often with pictures and updates on Bambi‘s day. We will definitely rebook with Serenity”
“Carrie was absolutely amazing! Her babies got along so well with mine and she was very communicative and sent pictures consistently throughout the time he was there. We even left with a goody bag of homemade dog treats! Carrie and her family were 100000/10 and my boy will be back! Repeat customer for sure.”
“Max stayed for over 2wks with Jennifer and Michael. They sent me pictures regularly and Max came back with as much energy as he was dropped off with…so I know he was played with plenty. It was great getting pictures of him with all the other dogs. He’s normally the only dog at home, so I know he loved playing with the other dogs while he was there. It was great to see him pulled in as part of their family while we were gone.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Sarah and Kevin took amazing care of our dogs while we were away. From the daily updates and adorable photos to the genuine love and attention given, it was clear our pet was in great hands. They followed all instructions perfectly and went above and beyond to make sure our furry friend felt comfortable and happy. Highly recommend Sarah and Kevin for any dog sitting needs. We will definitely use them again!”
