“Huri gave me confidence in her being a wonderful caregiver. A kind, attentive host who offers an excellent environment for any dog. My Jaxxon loved her fenced yard with plenty of space to run.”

“Christopher was Great!! I reached out last minute to see if he could keep my 2yo Catahoula, and he immediately responded and was available. He kept me updated with texts and pictures of how she was doing, and she was worn out and happy when I picked her back up! Would definitely book again!”

“Abigail was so sweet with my puppy, trying to understand what the puppy needs and providing closely. Also thank you for taking last minute ask for the sitting request. Absolutely the best!”

“Sarah and Kevin took amazing care of our 2 pups. They have a huge fenced yard for the dogs to roam and play in a beautiful country setting. We really appreciated the photos and communication! 100% highly recommend!!”
About: I have experience caring for cats, including those with anxiety and overgrooming. I currently care for my own cat and focus on keeping a calm, consistent environment. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box care, medications, and paying attention to behavior changes. I take time to build trust with each cat and always provide updates and photos. I also grew up with puppies. I have experienced walking, going potty, and playing! Pet care fits naturally into my routine, especially in the evenings and on weekends. I have a consistent schedule and am available Wednesday through Friday in the evenings and Saturdays during the day. I already care for my own cat daily, so feeding, cleaning, and spending quality time with pets is something I’m used to. I plan my schedule carefully to make sure each pet gets reliable, on-time care and attention. In a client’s home, I follow your cat’s normal routine to keep things as stress-free as possible. I handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and playtime or quiet companionship depending on your cat’s personality. I take a calm, patient approach, especially with shy or anxious cats, and never force interaction. I also monitor behavior, administer medications if needed, and send regular updates with photos so you feel at ease while you’re away.
“Brian and his family were excellent caregivers for Rex while we were gone. They sent frequent pictures and text updates to let us know how he was. Plus, Rex loved them and wanted to be by their side, which is a great sign! The large piece of property was perfect for Rex to run around and get some exercise. We would definitely choose them to watch him again! Highly recommended!”

“Miss Birdie loves staying with Christy and we can always rest easy knowing she’s being well cared for while enjoying the extra touches Christy provides… the bougie doggie room and the fenced in yard. The pictures and videos Christy sends daily are just icing on the cake!”

“Lavar and Amber do the absolute best job with our poodle, Zoey. She always comes back happy and tired from all the activity she gets. We love using them for our dog sitting needs!”

“Lorie was great! She was super responsive, provided great updates with pictures, and she really knew how to handle my timid rescue pup. I will absolutely be reaching back out to Lorie the next time I need a sitter.”

“Suzy was amazing and took great care of my baby! We had such a wonderful experience! Eugene stayed over the 4th of July weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She made sure he got his ear medication every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious she genuinely cared about him, and I felt completely confident that he was safe, happy, and well taken care of. He had the best time playing outside and came home tired in the best way. I would absolutely trust her with Eugene again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”

“Ute was very accommodating to have Bichon/Shih Tzu mix dog stay with her and her sweet Labrador dog for the weekend. She communicated well and sent cute photos throughout my dog's stay. He took to her easily and felt comfortable in his surroundings with his new dog buddy:) I would definitely call on Ute again to watch him!”

“This was the first time Anita watched our dog and she did a wonderful job! She sent me updates every day and felt like she treated our dog with just as much love and care as she treats her own fur baby.”

“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.”

“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!”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was about 13 years old and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Over the years, I’ve helped family, friends, and neighbors by feeding, walking, playing with, and caring for their pets while they were away. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I currently have a miniature dachshund, so I have hands-on experience with puppy care, crate training, potty routines, feeding schedules, daily exercise, and reinforcing good behaviors. I know every dog has unique needs, and I take the time to learn their routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I’ll provide attentive care and keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. I work full-time during the week, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care before work, after work, and throughout the weekends, depending on my schedule. I’m also usually home on the weekends and days I work from home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important consistency is, so I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine with feeding, walks, exercise, and lots of love. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly apartment that is pet-proofed to help provide a safe environment for visiting pets. My community is very dog friendly, with a fenced dog park and plenty of sidewalks and green spaces for walks, exercise, and enrichment. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care instructions before their stay. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, crate training, or favorite toys, I’ll follow your instructions closely to help your pet feel comfortable and at home. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important trust is, and I’ll care for your pet with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own.
“Trish was absolutely great with my fur baby! She stay in communication by sending updates and was able to accommodate me when I needed her to watch him last minute for an extra day. Denver loves it with her. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

“Rebecca did a great job caring for Tater! She cleaned up accidents that he had in his playpen and took him outside to use the restroom any run around. I will definitely request her again and recommend her to others.”


“Cheryl was absolutely amazing! She was easy to talk with and kept us up-to-date on Ellie and any house happenings. I'm grateful for her detailed check-ins. She truly cares about the pets she interacts with. We'll definitely be using her services again.”


“Sahara did a great job keeping my old kitty happy for a week while I was out of town. She is really good at communicating and kept me updated for the whole week. Thanks Sahara!”


“Wow! Thank you Kathy for taking such great care of Kingston! She went out of her way to check on him and gave him lots of love. Definitely will book again”


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.
“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!!”

“Connie is great! She always detailed everything she did during her visit, sent lots of pictures of our pets; and even cleaned up a small mess they made while we were gone. We’d recommend her to anyone!”


About: I have had pets all my life. I have 2 dogs and 1 cats they get a long with all their pet friends. We have regulars that come over for the holidays and vacations.

About: I specialize in cat care and have experience fostering kittens, including feeding, socializing, and helping them adjust to new environments.

I treat every cat like my own and always provide updates and photos.

“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 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.
“Kellyn wad amazing! She sent me pictures during the process and kept me updated with everything! I even ran alittle late kept her updated with the situation and she was just amazing! Daisy got along with her dog! Love it! 10/10 reccomend!”


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.
About: I have extensive experience with pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, breeds, types, colors, and temperaments. I have owned dogs, cats, turtles, frogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and a lizard. (I once had a pet worm in an animal cracker box. I thought he would like living in a little zoo.) For 7 years I took care of my disabled mom as well as 5 dogs and 2 cats. During that time, I also worked as a foster volunteer for Music City Pug Rescue–most of which were geriatric surrenders whose owners had passed away or moved into a nursing facility. While I questioned my own sanity at the time, looking back now, those were some of the very best days of my life! Today I only have one dog, Marley, (my lucky charm rescue–a Tibetan Terrier who was just hours away from euthanasia when I saw his picture online) and I am renting my home. So while I can't board your pets, I am happy to take care of them at their own home! Sadly I have lost pets to terrible chronic illnesses like cancer and diabetes. I've been through two torn ACL surgeries, one hip surgery, blindness, deafness, and incontinence. My current pup, little Marley, has been paralyzed twice. The first time, I was able to afford an expensive back surgery. But when it happened again six months post-op, I rehabilitated him myself. Now, 6 years later, he's still walking! I thank God every morning and night for giving me another day with him. My experience caring for all of these dogs and their health problems means that I know how to care for their special needs. Whether it's taking a dog to weekly chemo treatments or giving him two shots of insulin each day, I am capable of caring for your pets and promise to do so just like they are my own. Whether it's for a few minutes, a few days, or even a few weeks, I would love to spoil your pet(s) with lots of hugs,and kisses. Not to mention walks, toys, fur brushings, head massages, playtimes, and treats–at your request, of course! Plu$, I am always willing to work with you on rates, so don't hesitate to make an offer. No matter the price, I promise to give you the best service possible. ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ I can design and 🧧 💰I can create a special GIFT CERTIFICATE for any of my services (final booking will be based on availability) I work from home and am free to pet sit, walk, feed, and take them on potty breaks throughout the day. While I only have availability to sit 41 dog at my home during the day, I am enabled to stay at your home for half an hour....or 24 -- or even a couple of weeks if that's what you need! (While I have extended stay rates listed, I am open to discussing long-term or permanent services, too. Just ask!) I do have a small dog and I take him with me everywhere. So if you do need someone for overnight services at your home, I will be bringing him with me. I will treat your canine and/or feline fur babies (or scaly ones!) just like they're my own. Likewise, I will care for your home with respect and with the utmost confidentiality. I can be as discreet as you need me to be, or I can take your pets to visit their friends if that's what you want me to do. For at-home pet sitting, I will meet with you and your pets beforehand to give you peace of mind. We can get as detailed as you want. Whether you give me a typed document outlining their care plan, or just hand me a key and tell me when to stop by, I am happy to accommodate you either way!

“Angie loves on our dog like family! Our pup loves coming to see Angie and the other dogs and is happy every time we arrive. She’s been so reliable and consistent and communicative. We bring our pup to her 3-4 days/week.”

“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!!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and could not imagine life without them! Pets deserve all of the attention and love even when you’re gone. I understand the stress of having to leave your pup and can assure you they’ll be in great hands! We’ll go on walks, play throughout the day and snuggle at night. I work from home full time. I am here to hang with them and keep them busy while you are gone. I take my own pup on daily walks and Riley loves to have a friend around. I have lots of grass around my apartment and a big dog park for them to play. I also love going on walks with them and being active if that’s what they like!
“Ariana was great with my pup! She was flexible and accommodating, which I so appreciate. My pup came back tired and happy from daycare with Ariana and her pups, so I know she had a good time! Would totally recommend her to watch your kiddos!”

About: Have had pets most of my life. Had a Boston Terrier that walked 5+ miles a day. Have walked friends Boxers, doxies, Scottish Terriers and a coonhound mix. I work from home and have flexibility. If there’s a set time that your dog is used to walking, I will do my best to stick to their routine. We will need to discuss your pets habits & how/if I can be a fit for their habits. Typically will walk 30 minutes or let out back, clean up after them & let them back inside. And if crated, place them back in their crate.
“Marcus was excellent and compassionate. I had a health emergency and he made an exception to care for Sebastián. He kept me informed and sent pictures. I was able to relax and concentrate on healing. He is most definitely a very respectful and responsible young man. I'm so glad to have met him.”


“Luigi had tons of fun at daycare today, thanks Ashley! Loved seeing all the pictures taken throughout his day and happy to hear he did well on his leash/walks too :)”

About: Hello! Thank you for visiting my profile. I love animals and have been a pet sitter and dog walker for five years. I specialize in energetic walks, fun doggy-play during the day, and loving supervision until you return home. I work from home and will ensure your pet gets a lot of attention. I offer the following services: *Walks: I can come by while you are at work or away to take your pet for a walk. Walks range from 30-60 minutes. I can walk up to two dogs at a time, and I can accommodate the level of speed your pet needs. I am trying to expand my walking services on Rover, as I have primarily been boarding, but I also have a lot of walking experience. *Drop-in: If you pet isn't a walker, I can come by and play with them and let them out to the bathroom. *Doggy Day Care: This service is perfect if you need pet care for just the day. I can host your pet at my home. *Boarding: NOTE due to high demand for this service, I am not accepting new clients at the moment. I live in West Nashville, in a townhome with a small fenced in yard. If your pet needs more exercise, we can go for a walk around my neighborhood or I have several parks within miles from house. Feel free to bring their favorite toy or bed, and crates are also welcome. I only board one pet at a time. If there are any behavioral issues I should be aware of, I trust the parent will tell me. *Pet Sitting: I can come to your home and sit for your pet. Meet and greets are available upon request. Thank you, and I look forward to meeting your pet! I work from home so I will make sure your pet will get a lot of attention and exercise throughout the day. There is always time for walks. I treat my clients pets like they are my own. Whether I’m watching them for a few days or just taking them for a walk, I will make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention.
“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.”

“Karen was fantastic in taking care of Echo during a doggy day care visit. Plenty of photos and clearly a happy dog when I picked her up. I highly recommend Karen and will be using her again in the future. Thanks!”

“Lisa has been so accommodating and sweet to my buddy boy, Cosmo! He is a bit of a special case since he has arthritis and is a senior pup. Thank you for being so kind and patient with him, and helping him up and down the stairs. I've never used Rover before, but I am so thankful that we got to work with Lisa. She is the best!”

About: I’ve had pets in my life for as long as I can remember. My first childhood pet was a sweet dachshund named Greta. In my adulthood, I have been caring for my own pets for the past 26 years. We love to have our dogs Bertie and Chester near us wherever we are, indoors and outdoors. More recently, we have welcomed two incredible cats, Belle and Zesty, into our family as well. In my experience, having pets truly makes life better. I would welcome spending time with your pet, whether in your home or out on a walk, and would care for them as I would one of the pets in my own family. I am comfortable caring for active pets as well as seniors who are moving a little slower these days. I am taking some sabbatical time away from my full-time profession, so I have lots of time and energy available to care for your furry friends (as well as my own dogs and cats). I believe that pets make our lives better, and in turn I am committed to making their lives as comfortable and enjoyable as I possibly can. You can depend on me being detail-oriented and conscientious; I will stick closely to the instructions you share with me about how best to provide for your pet’s needs while you are away (as regards schedule for feeding, cat litter box tending, dogs being taken outside, medications to administer, and so on). As someone who has entrusted my own pets to the care of sitters over the years, I understand the importance of making sure my clients’ dogs and cats get lots of loving care and undivided attention, in addition to providing for their physical needs.
About: As a responsible, middle-aged professional with a lifelong love of animals, I bring maturity, trustworthiness, and genuine care to every pet I look after. Whether you’re heading out for a few hours or a full vacation, you can count on me to treat your pet like they’re my own—with affection, structure, and plenty of playtime. I work from home, which means I can often adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs—whether that’s a midday walk, drop-in visit, or extended overnight care. I’m especially available on evenings and weekends, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate special requests. I’m very comfortable caring for pets in their home environment and understand the importance of respecting your space. I’m confident with crate-trained pets, administering basic medications, and making sure everything is secure when I leave. Cleanliness, safety, and attention to detail are always my priorities.
About: I had a pet-sitting service for 15 years, and then I started caring for dogs in my home through Dog Vacay. I took a break to care for my ailing mother and then I became a Nanny to a newborn boy. He is now 4 years old and my services are no longer needed. I am also a missionary to Uganda. I've been helping with a woman's ministry since 2007. I can not be idle, so I'm reactivating my Rover profile. I’m available for Drop-In visits or House Sitting. I am retiring as a Nanny and I am reactivating my Rover account. I’m not taking care of pets in my home, but I can come to you; Drop-Ins and House Sitting. While I am in your home, I will also bring in your mail/packages, water your plants, and bring in or take out your trash bins. I can come to you, Drop-Ins or House Sitting. While I’m there with your pets, I will also bring in your mail, trash in & out, water your plants, etc.

“Jessica is great! Out of all the pet sitters we’ve had, our animals like her the most. She’s very patient with our anxious dog and elderly cat. She’s also a wealth of knowledge when it comes to fish and aquatic creatures! Whenever she house sits for us I know we’ll be coming home to a very clean house as well. She is punctual, personable, great with communication, sends pictures and updates, and it’s obvious that she loves animals. I would highly recommend her!”

“Kathy provides exceptional care to my girl Charlie with every walk! She always provides detailed updates that puts me at ease, takes Charlie on long walks, pays attention to the little things, and always goes above and beyond what I ask of her. She is truly the best and highly recommend to anyone!”

“Really Love Dogs and are patient with new clients. My Neptune loves her. I can tell in the pictures he is having fun. My Neptune took to her immediately. He waits for her by the window. Like she is the walkie fairie”

About: I grew up with and have cared and loved for a variety of dogs for my whole life. I am patient and capable of taking care of your fur babies. I’m currently working from home and have availability during the day and I am available to watch your pets overnight in the comfort of your home. I can provide appropriate care for your dogs in your home or take them on a fun walk during the day. I will love them as I love our dogs.

About: Since I was young I’ve been raised around cats and dogs (12 to be exact), loving animals is a lifetime commitment to me! Whenever my parents would go out of town, I would be in charge of keeping the house safe and our pets. This includes the typical responsibilities as well as providing medical care to our older pets, diabetes shots daily, hip and joint treats with every dinner, even temporary medicines after small procedures. Since I was young, my mother and I were a part of a nonprofit organization run by her best friend called pawsitive difference in Las Vegas, this entailed, not only volunteering at adoption meets, but also even as far as picking up strays off the street taking them to get medical care and fostering until we found them homes. I’ve loved every pet I’ve had temporarily and long-term, along with all the ones I’ve yet to meet! As far as my experience goes, I’ve pet sit for my own as well as friends of the family and for other great dog sitters. I’m doing this until I get my own dog just because I miss having one in the house since moving and I would love nothing more to help your fur babies in any way I can! I’m currently always home taking care of house day-to-day errands until I start hair school in a few months so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I live in suburban neighborhood of mostly families, which is great for walking dogs and lots of grass to play in. I do like to walk with a leash just for safety purposes, even if your pets are trained to not need one to prevent any unnecessary issues. I do have a friendly very old cat, but she mostly stays in my roommates bedroom sleeping the day away, so there won’t be much contact with her and your pet will have my full attention!

About: I have taken care of animals most of my life i am new the Rover community but I do have kennel technician experience and dog bather experience along with drop by visits. I do have to walk or be driven by my mother since I don't have a license and or car because I have epilepsy and hydrocephalus. Despite my disabilities I am a very hard worker and always make sure the fur babies are safe and taken care of. I do have four dogs and a cat also. I have been around all sorts of dogs and or cats along with other animals so I don't scare easily and I am very patient with them. If you are willing to take a chance on me I will not let you down I wake up and take care of my five dogs as soon as I get up. Two of them take meds and I give it to them if my grandma doesn't do it for her two Goldens I let them outside feed them give them water give them their medicine and make sure they are taken care of. If something is wrong with one of them I will find it
“Connie goes the extra mile with Scrubs. Being a night shift nurse my schedule can be crazy. Connie has always been understanding and compassionate. She sends me fun photos and gives me a wonderful update about Scrubs. She walks her, plays with her and gives her lots of love. Could not ask for anyone better! Carrie C.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs for well over 10 years now. I have 1 dog that is a rescue, so I have experience with working with reactive, timid dogs. Growing up, I also had a dog with severe diabetes, so I am familiar with administering insulin shots as well. I work hybrid-remote, so the days I’ve listed as available for walks and drop-ins are super flexible and I’m happy to coordinate with customers to find the best times that fit their dog’s needs! I love it when pet owners leave me notes on the specific things their pets might need! I’m happy to follow all directions, regularly feed and take them out to the bathroom if necessary, and play with them/spend time with them!
About: Huge animal and dog lover with a baby of my own wanting to help out other families when they need and ease there mind that their dog well taken care of I work hybrid currently and i am in the office only 2 days a week and home from wed-monday with an east schedule to make sure your fur baby stays in their routine I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like part of the family.

I’m also happy to accommodate each pet’s individual needs and make sure they feel comfortable and secure while in my care.
“Kaylene was amazing! My original Rover Walker bailed the first day. I was frantic! Kaylene responded quickly and was able to start the next day! Piper loved having Kaylene for walks every day. Informative notes, many pictures, and genuine care for our pup. Awesome service and just friendly and kind!!”

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 9 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!

“Christopher was Great!! I reached out last minute to see if he could keep my 2yo Catahoula, and he immediately responded and was available. He kept me updated with texts and pictures of how she was doing, and she was worn out and happy when I picked her back up! Would definitely book again!”

“Abigail was so sweet with my puppy, trying to understand what the puppy needs and providing closely. Also thank you for taking last minute ask for the sitting request. Absolutely the best!”

“Sarah and Kevin took amazing care of our 2 pups. They have a huge fenced yard for the dogs to roam and play in a beautiful country setting. We really appreciated the photos and communication! 100% highly recommend!!”
“Brian and his family were excellent caregivers for Rex while we were gone. They sent frequent pictures and text updates to let us know how he was. Plus, Rex loved them and wanted to be by their side, which is a great sign! The large piece of property was perfect for Rex to run around and get some exercise. We would definitely choose them to watch him again! Highly recommended!”

“Miss Birdie loves staying with Christy and we can always rest easy knowing she’s being well cared for while enjoying the extra touches Christy provides… the bougie doggie room and the fenced in yard. The pictures and videos Christy sends daily are just icing on the cake!”

“Lorie was great! She was super responsive, provided great updates with pictures, and she really knew how to handle my timid rescue pup. I will absolutely be reaching back out to Lorie the next time I need a sitter.”

“Suzy was amazing and took great care of my baby! We had such a wonderful experience! Eugene stayed over the 4th of July weekend, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She made sure he got his ear medication every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious she genuinely cared about him, and I felt completely confident that he was safe, happy, and well taken care of. He had the best time playing outside and came home tired in the best way. I would absolutely trust her with Eugene again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”

“Ute was very accommodating to have Bichon/Shih Tzu mix dog stay with her and her sweet Labrador dog for the weekend. She communicated well and sent cute photos throughout my dog's stay. He took to her easily and felt comfortable in his surroundings with his new dog buddy:) I would definitely call on Ute again to watch him!”

“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!”


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.
“Marisa was super nice working with us. We had a snow and ice storm the day before we left. She made arrangements for us so we didn’t miss our trip. Coco did well with her.”

“Heather is the absolute best!!! She took such great care of our little baby and gave so much love and comfort. The communication was just right with pictures and updates. We were delayed by 3 hours and was past midnight due to travel disruptions and she remained kind throughout the time. I can tell our puppy was so loved and we were so relieved the entire time we were gone. She will be my go to & I recommend her to all!”


“Janey was so great with our pup, Steve! She was very on top of making sure he had everything he needed before we left and keeping us updated while we were away. He’s a big snuggler, and she made him feel right at home welcoming him on her lap and in her bed. Would love to have Steve stay with Janey again!”

“Ashley did an absolute wonderful job with my 6 month old puppy! She sent me pictures throughout the weekend and eased my anxiety as it was my first time leaving my dog since I got her. I will definitely be using Ashley again!”
