“I can’t give enough praise to Victoria and Michael! This is the first time we have used a boarding service. Our big baby is 182lb English Mastiff and she had the best time ever with their kiddos and other furry friends! This family loved on her and spoiled her just like we would! I got checking and photos/video daily! She had her own little vacation. Victoria out our hearts at ease!”
“Christy was great...sent lots of pictures and updates. My Stu had so much fun he was tuckered out and slept like a baby when he got home. Would definitely recommend her.”
“I can't say enough great things about Huri. We left our one-year-old baby with her for about 12 days, and she was so well taken care of. In fact, we weren't sure our pup would want to come home! Huri gave her so much love and fun. She was great about communicating, sent photos/videos daily, and followed our requests exactly. Fantastic experience. Highly recommend partnering with Huri.”
“As always Mrs Karri was so wonderful!!! Tank loves staying with Mrs Karri and playing with the other puppies. As long as she will continue to let him stay we will always book her ”
“So grateful to have Alexis and her family to board our dog, Bear. They are reliable, keep us well updated, and are so good with our Bear. Will definitely continue using their services!”
“Carla was so great with my lab. She watched her right after a surgery, monitored her wound and she was well taken care of. Carla goes above and beyond when it comes to pet sitting and sends pictures of your pet throughout the stay. Highly recommend!”
“Brian and Tara were fantastic! They were incredibly responsive to messages and flexible to accommodate our travel details and a meet & greet. They have an excellent set-up, and our dog was in great hands. We particularly appreciated the frequent updates, pictures, and videos! We will definitely use them again!”
“Matt, Candace, and family are terrific! Our pup Laila was well cared for and loved. She was exhausted when she got home telling us how much fun she had. We are very happy to have found such a wonderful family to care for Laila when we need to travel.”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”

“Emily was great! It was the first time we have left our cat, so we wanted to be sure to choose someone we could trust, and we were so happy with Emily! She took lots of photos, which made us feel very comfortable. She also brought in our mail and fed and watered the feral cat that lives nearby. She communicated with us very well. We will definitely book Emily again to care for Carson!”

About: I have years of experience caring for cats in kennels and veterinary clinics. I am able to understand what makes each cat unique and provide care tailored to their personality and needs. I provide feeding, grooming, litter box cleaning, health monitoring, and medication administration—even for cats who can be challenging—always with patience and attentive care. What sets me apart is my ability to connect with cats by understanding their behavior and respecting their boundaries. I strive to create a calm and comforting environment where they feel safe and cherished, while also giving owners confidence and peace of mind while they’re away.
“Emma did a great job checking in on my goldendoodle Maple! She sent pictures, made sure she had enough food and water and took her to potty and play! So glad Emma could check on Maple while I was gone during the day! I’ll definitely use her again! Thank you, Emma!”
“We had an emergency situation a messaged Austin. He dropped everything Christmas Day and went to our house to feed, water and check on our fur babies. He sent updates and pictures every day and was incredibly kind and helpful. I recommend Austin with the highest rating.”
“Tyler did a wonderful job caring for our kitties. I had set up an automatic feeder to give the cats dry food (Tyler was giving them wet food at his visits) and the cats toppled it and knocked it over. The next day, they clawed into the sealed bag of food I’d left out. Both times, Tyler graciously cleaned it up and helped me devise a way to keep the cats from doing it again. He checked in daily and sent occasional photos and videos, which my kids loved. I will definitely use him again!”

“Highly recommend Victoria, Michael and their sweet kiddos to care for, love and play with your pet. This was our first time to take our dog to a Doggy Day Care (and to use Rover) and Victoria made the entire process a breeze with her quick responses and great communication, explanations and directions. They live in a “puppy paradise” with acres of fields, woods and a creek. I felt completely at ease leaving my somewhat anxious dog with their family. He was happy, calm and completely tuckered out from his day playing with new puppy friends and the kiddos. I will definitely use Victoria and Michael again and cannot recommend them highly enough. They are kind, caring people who love animals.”
“She took great care of Dixie! Super flexible and always sent photos. I can tell when Dixie is treated well when we show up to a dog sitter and leave, she loved it! Definitely plan on having Dixie back”
“WOW! Angie went above and beyond to make Honey's birthday at her house wonderful. She made homemade GF pumpkin cakes (after asking Honey's dietary needs), found party hats, and made it an absolute party. I was having a rough, stressful day, and the photos and updates Angie sent of Honey + Winnie celebrating made my whole day. We will continue trusting Angie with our fur babies!”

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 was awesome! She was super communicative. I appreciated that she was so warm and welcoming to my two dogs, and even sent me pics! One of my dogs can be anxious leaving me and he was drawn to her immediately!”
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.
“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!!”
“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!”
“Our dog Greta was so happy with Jamie! She was flexible with our varying hours and very helpful throughout. We’ll definitely book her again next time we’re in Franklin. You can’t go wrong choosing Jamie as your pet sitter.”
“Riley stayed all day with Kathy & her adorable dog Gracie. He was well cared for & was a happy boy when I picked him up. She was very professional, house was immaculste. Will definitely use them again soon. Barbara Lynn”
“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’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’v taken care of dogs since I was old enough to be responsible for them, around age 12. I was in charge of feeding our family dogs, walking them, and exercising them through intentional playtime. We had 3 dogs then, and now we own two. I enjoy going on long walks and hikes, and often take my dogs on hikes. I also enjoy a casual run, and I am happy to take dogs on runs as well! I just graduated from college, and I have a couple weeks available until I begin my job. I will start working as a Firefighter for the Franklin fire department on June 8. Once that starts, I will be available on most weekends and evenings to care for your pet! I am happy to walk or run your pet! I also offer pet-sitting. As a responsible student, with several years of families trusting me with babysitting, I can give you confidence that your home and pet will be cared for as if they were my own.
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: Our pets are more than just our best furry friends, they are our babies! I promise your babies will be loved and cared for like my own! I love daily walks and playing outdoors with our two girls. Your fur baby will get daily love and attention! I aspire to make them feel engaged and well loved while you’re away! Pets need daily exercise / enrichment to make keep them entertained and happy! There is a local dog park as well as a fenced in yard. I also have enrichment toys to keep any dogs entertained
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family for the entirety of my life, as well as have six months of experience working in a pet boarding kennel at Sprayberry Animal Hospital. I make your pet(s) my highest priority, as I can take breaks from whatever I am doing at any given time to take care of them whenever needed. I am a frequent walker, as I really enjoy cardio and getting my steps in every day! Every pet is different and has varying needs. I always try to be respectful of clients' homes and treat it as my own, feed and give water to the pet as needed, give them plenty of attention, take them on many walks, and other various needs such as medication, etc.

About: I have three pups of my own, (Roosevelt, 6 year old border collie, Sadie B, 5 year old dalmatian mix, and Chewbacca, 1 year old Carolina dog.) They are all rescues. I adore them, they are my babies. I would have many more if I had a farm and could talk my husband into it. I visit dog shelters regularly and become familiar with all the pups. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pups when you go out of town. Please contact me with your pet sitting needs. Thanks "Every once in awhile a dog enters your life and changes it." "A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself." "Be the person your dog thinks you are"
About: I currently work full time but from the comfort of my own home. I always stress about finding a reliable sitter when I am away and thought why not help relieve that stress for other pet parents. I worked at a boarding facility as an operational manager for 2 years and have experience with all types of pups, including providing medications, special diets, etc. I also have two pups of my own and one has liver complications and the other one has entered old age, so fully understand the importance of care. They are my world. I value creating an environment that suites all fur babies. If yours needs a space of their own, I can make that happen in my home. I have tons of space and am happy to make sure your fur babies are comfortable. I have two dedicated adult bedrooms I use for boarding. Pets well have a warm bed and area that is all theirs. Of course they well have full access to the entire house but I all pups need their own space. I have a fenced yard with a tall privacy fence so potty breaks are secure and will be fully supervised. I want all pups comfortable. I can offer walks throughout the day for additional charge. My time is very flexible. I create my own schedule at my job so I can make anything happen with proper notice. I’m open to help whenever and wherever. I have two friendly pups who love other dogs. I have been trained in dog behavior and feel confident to know when a dog needs a break, uncomfortable, etc.. I’m quick to react and pay attention at all times.
About: Hi, I'm Marissa! I'm one of those people who, before I came out of my shell, spent more time with animals than people. Sometimes I still do. I've had dogs and cats all my life, and also rode horses starting just before I was 4. I have 7 years of experience on Rover and another 2 independently dog walking and sitting before that. I’ve cared for many kinds of dogs and cats, fish, turtles, donkeys, a family of racoons, and more. And I have a lot of experience caring for older animals and animals with medical conditions. I also used to volunteer with my mom transporting rescue dogs with Echo Dog White German Shepherd rescue. I am a homebody for the most part, so once I'm there I'm probably not going anywhere. My capital W Work is writing - I'm 13 years into an elven magic realism epic screenplay/novel series, it is my passion project and pet/housesitting gives me the time to tend to that vision, and fur babies to keep me company! Walking and playing with them keeps me active and in my beloved nature. It is a great joy to give people peace of mind while they travel, knowing their home and furbabies are in good hands. I know how stressful it can be - I was born in the Northeast and then moved to Nashville when I was 12 so my mom and I would drive up there to visit family, but we would often bring our dog and cats with us on that 13 hr ride because we didn’t have anyone we trusted to watch them. It’s a great time, unless it’s a family emergency. Now, I get to be that person for other people! My clients relaxing, knowing that they can have fun or do what needs doing and that their fur babies are taken care of at home - that is priceless and never gets old. If you have 3 or more pets, I'm happy to give a discount. I know how hard it can be trying to find care for them when you have many. Feel free to reach out! Pets are family. I will make sure they receive the best care possible! I'm a night owl myself when I'm home but whatever their routine is, I will stick to that as much as I can. For dogs, walks are included in housesitting if you want that. And any plant and garden care etc. Totally depends on your and your pet's needs. I'm so excited to look after your fur baby!

About: I have been around cats and dogs most of my life. Had mostly larger breed dogs. Two Weimaraner‘s, a black lab, and a Rottweiler. Had a cat for about 10 years growing up. My son has a Great Pyrenees that I went with him to pick up when he was only two months old and he is now a year and a half. I walk my sons dog two times a day at minimum while he is working. I do travel some, but otherwise I will be home. Retired and ready to walk. I always wash, and clean water bowls, food bowls when adding new food. Put on calming music for the dog as well to ease them.

“I can’t give enough praise to Victoria and Michael! This is the first time we have used a boarding service. Our big baby is 182lb English Mastiff and she had the best time ever with their kiddos and other furry friends! This family loved on her and spoiled her just like we would! I got checking and photos/video daily! She had her own little vacation. Victoria out our hearts at ease!”

“We absolutely loved Carrie and all her pups. Our baby, Tiffany had a blast. She was always doing something. Carrie made her homemade healthy treats. Fed her well. Loved her and treated as if she was her own. We will definitely be using Carrie again and Tiffany can’t wait!”

“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.”
“Michelle and her family took such great care of my nervous pup. They made him feel really comfortable and sent great updates. I would feel confident leaving Chance in their care in the future!”
About: Hello! My name is Karen and I've been an avid and passionate animal lover my entire life. I have over 20 years of dog fostering experience with Big Fluffy Fog Rescue, and currently have two of my own dogs and three horses at home. I would love to let your pup join our little pack! I offer a private climate controlled area for your dog(s) to feel safe and relaxed. Crating is available, but some of my more mature canine friends prefer a nice dog bed and cot if they so choose. The space includes direct access to a fenced in yard with plenty of opportunity for outside! I am a full time remote employee, so I am here all the time. We have potty breaks as needed, with tons of supervised outside time! I offer a private inclusive area for friends, as well as lots of outside time with or without canine friends! There are cats and horses so if your friend has a high prey drive this wouldn't be the best place.
