“Hannah is very sweet and communicative and her dogs are just as nice. I’m sure my dog and his puppy energy was a pain in the butt but if he was they didn’t let on and the photos they sent showed them getting along perfectly. I would highly recommend Hannah.”

“Loved boarding my dog with Sarah! My dog is usually so difficult we don’t even walk uo to other dogs on walks, but after 5 minutes with Sarah’s dogs she was happy and part of the pack! As a 1 dog mom it was great and so satisfying to see. Plus, sarah kept me so informed the whole time, and offered the option to com by and see her during the day while I was on vacation. I was here to visit family, but next time I’m in town she’s definitely staying with Sarah again!”

“Keturah was so great with my overly excited pug, her family and fur babies welcomed him like he was one of their own, I was nervous leaving him for nearly a week, and I have never used rover before, but being last minute, they were very helpful and accommodating, I even had to leave him for one extra night, and Keturah assured me it was no problem to watch him, what a life saver! Bruno had so much fun and got the love he needed while I was away. I would absolutely recommend them and use them again in the future to take loving care of my Bruno.”

“Monique was easy to work with and sent updates and pictures each day. Her pups were darling and got along with my pup well. I could tell my dog was very happy and well cared for.”

About: Hi! My name is Candice, and I have over 25 years of hands-on animal care experience, along with volunteer experience with an animal rescue organization. Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion, not just a job. I have extensive experience caring for: • Dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments • Horses, cows, pigs, and chickens • Rabbits, hamsters, and gerbils • Birds • Reptiles, including chameleons • Freshwater and saltwater fish My rescue background has given me strong skills working with shy, anxious, senior, and special-needs animals, as well as pets that need extra patience, structure, and reassurance. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has been a consistent part of my life for over 25 years. I structure my schedule to allow dedicated time for walks, drop-ins, feeding routines, playtime, and check-ins so each pet receives attentive, unrushed care. Throughout the week, I prioritize reliability and flexibility to accommodate different pet schedules, whether that means morning walks, midday visits, evening care, or overnight stays. I also build in time for communication and updates so pet parents feel informed and confident while they’re away. Because animal care is something I genuinely enjoy, it’s not something I “fit in” — it’s something I intentionally plan my day around. My care approach is always tailored to each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level. Whether I’m caring for pets in a client’s home or providing drop-ins and walks, I focus on consistency, safety, and creating a calm environment. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, litter or habitat maintenance, exercise, and enrichment. I respect the home as if it were my own and aim to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel secure and stress-free. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident while they’re away. During walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize safety, awareness of surroundings, and positive interaction. Walks are customized to the pet’s energy level, and visits include playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, feeding if needed, and companionship. With over 25 years of experience and animal rescue volunteer work, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all temperaments, as well as small animals, reptiles, and farm animals when needed. My goal is always to provide reliable, compassionate care so pets feel comfortable and loved in their familiar environment.

“Karen made such a great home away from home for our 2 collies that they did not want to leave when we picked them up! It was the first time leaving them in years and we are so happy to have found Karen because we knew they were getting the best 1 on 1 care and attention! She sent us updates and pictures while we were away and they got to go on a lot of walks which made us so happy to hear! 1 of our collies has lots of health issues but this was not a problem for Karen while we were on vacation. Thank you again!!”

“Tracy has been amazing with my shy kitties. They’ve really warmed up to her, I’ve played with her, and even let her give them their oral medications! Knowing Tracy is caring for my fur babies is such a comfort while I’m away. Thank you so much Tracy!!!”
“Awesome!! Annabelle took great care of my 2 cats while I was on vacation. I am so thankful I found her. She kept me updated the entire time by sending me photos with little messages letting me know my cats were doing great. I was able to enjoy my vacation stress free like it should be. Thanks Annabelle!”

About: I've had pets most of my life. The past ten years I've been a mother of two beautiful girl fur babies. I'm looking to care for others doing what brings me joy in life. I'm available for dog walking, drop-in visits and dog boarding by appointment. I prefer a harness when walking all fur baby's so their comfortable and secure. I can walk & feed your pets at your home when I drop in for a visit. If your doggies are staying overnight please make sure to bring their preferred toys, food and bed or blanket so they feel more at ease. We only get so much time with these little angels that love so unconditionally. So let's make it count🐾🐕🥰 I have two female un-spayed fully vaccinated dogs. One is my shy little rat terrier/dachshund mix (Lucy) and the other is my lovebug beagle (Delilah). I have a fenced backyard in which I can keep our pets separate or together.

About: I’ve spent years caring for animals in many different settings, and that experience shapes the way I approach every drop‑in visit and dog walk. For the past few years, I’ve owned a natural dog treat business, which has given me a strong understanding of canine nutrition and how to motivate dogs gently and positively. Previously, I managed a day boarding facility for three years, ensuring dogs stayed safe, clean, and comfortable while maintaining consistent routines. I also own a small farm, which has taught me patience, structure, and confident animal handling. All of this means your baby gets someone who is calm, reliable, and experienced — whether I’m stopping by for a potty break, giving medication, refreshing water and food, or taking them on a fun, structured walk. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for.
“Victoria was fabulous! She went above and beyond to make sure our house and pets were taken care of. There was a huge storm and she helped get everything back in order and sent tons of photos putting our minds at ease while on vacation. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“Thank you for watching our 3 cats. One had to get medication administered last minute and Catherine did a great job with that. All of our cats were well taken care of and we got the best photos! Will book again!”

About: Since I’ve been a kid I’ve been around animals of all kinds. I have owned dachshunds, poodles, labs, and other animals. I love to take care of them. I work full time but I will be phasing more into pet care. Once I can get my facility built and inspected I will be able to board quite a few animals. I will make sure the animals are fed and watered. Depending on how long the watch is I’ll take them out however many times needed. I will also follow all instructions given by the owners.

About: I am a Veterinary Technician who is currently waiting to take his national certification exam to work in the state of Tennessee. I have been working in doggy daycares and vet clinics for the last eight (8) years and have loved every minute of it. I recently moved to Tennessee from the Pacific Northwest and would like to continue to care for pets even though I’m not in a clinic yet. Even when I return to clinics I still plan to keep doing walks and home visits if for no better reason than to get out of my house everyday. I am currently unemployed and looking to start making money again and the best way to do so is on my own terms. I am free every day except for Sundays to do walks, house visits, or even house sit if needed. In my clients homes I make sure to follow all instructions given for pet care. I have a great deal of experience working with pets that need medications and special care after working in an Emergency Clinic, and I do my best to clean up and leave the home in the same state I received it.

About: I have been around pets since I was born and I currently have a Rottweiler, 2 cats, and a fancy leopard gecko. They are my children! I care for animals daily. I clean up after dogs, feed them, water them, play and cuddle with them, and I even help take care of my mothers cat. I will care for pets in their own homes by feeding, watering, walking, and playing with them. I will also clean up after small dogs that are in the process of being potty trained.

“This is the fourth time I’ve used Victoria and I couldn’t be happier. She’s extremely flexible with my schedule and always takes such good care of Juno. Juno gets tons of attention and exercise playing with Victoria’s puppy Stark and I can tell that she loves going over there based on how easy it is to get her in the car on the mornings I take her over there. I can’t recommend her enough. She’s a great sitter for a great price”
About: There isn’t a time I can remember that I didn’t have pets. I’ve always loved caring for animals and I’m happy to extend this love and experience to caring for your pets as well! Currently, my schedule is widely available and I could spend as much time as needed with your pets. I am available every morning, all afternoons except Thursdays, and every evening. I’m also available on weekends! I have three loving cats and one very large, wonderful dog! My backyard is entirely fenced in and is complete with a wide selection of sticks from the surrounding woods. My pets are friendly and I enjoy doing necessary care tasks like feeding and grooming my pets all the way to special care when needed like medication distribution and separating pets for feeding to ensure correct portion and food.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life ranging from dogs and cats to bunnies and chickens. I’ve taken care of all shapes and size. While this isn’t my full time job, animals are my passion. When I’m not taking care of fur friends you can find me working at Boot Barn or at my pet groomers apprenticeship! Currently not available for boarding but I’m great at learning and sticking to daily routines. I’m good at remembering medications and special dietary restrictions. I also have my own transportation so I can take your fur baby to vet visits, dog parks, and just little outings.

“Tracy has taken care of our 4 cats and two dogs many times. She is always kind, courteous and excellent at keeping us informed. We never worry about the furbabies when we have to be away. Added bonus, Tracy gets some of the cutest pictures. At our house, Tracy gets 24 paws up and 6 nose boops!”

Throughout 2026 I will be honoring bookings made in my previous city. However, I still have a very flexible schedule and I’m willing to work with you, even if it’s on short notice. Depending on what service you need, I will establish a basic schedule with you in order to get a better insight on what your pet’s day-to-day looks like. Doggy daycare and boarding coming 2027! I do have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. If you book with me, you can be assured that your pets will be in good hands and get the care they need upon your desired schedule.

About: I have been the designated dog sitter for my friends and family for several years now! I also have a 5 year old dog myself. I understand our pets are our family and I will always provide the best care possible! I do currently work full time, but I have a couple of week days off and a pretty flexible schedule, so I can easily fit dog walking/sitting into my schedule as needed! I will provide care for your pets in your home that way they are in a familiar and comfortable environment and we can stick to their everyday routines!

We own a small farm, our animals are well cared for every morning and evening. During each drop‑in or walk, your pet gets calm, attentive, and reliable care from someone who truly understands animals. I always start by checking in on your pet’s overall well‑being — making sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy before anything else. For drop‑ins, I handle the essentials like fresh water, feeding (if needed), medication, and a quick tidy‑up of any pet areas. I also make time for whatever your pet enjoys most, whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or a quiet moment of reassurance. For walks, I focus on giving your dog a safe, structured, and enjoyable outing. My background in rescue work, kennel management, and farm life means I’m confident handling dogs with all kinds of personalities and energy levels. I tailor each walk to your dog’s needs — from slow, sniff‑filled strolls to upbeat, energy‑burning adventures.
“Brandon and Catherine took amazing care of our dog. They took great care of her and even checked in on our 3 cats and made sure they were fed. Also sent plenty of pictures!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and understanding of animals, especially cats, combined with my commitment to providing personalized care. I take the time to learn your pet’s unique routine, preferences, and personality to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care.

Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. As a full-time student, I’ve mastered the art of balancing responsibilities, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being of animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s feeding, playing, or providing companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine, ensuring they receive attention and care when they need it. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me—it’s a passion I make time for every day, even amidst my busy academic life. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them. In my home, I ensure the space is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration. I maintain a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, playtime, and quiet time to keep pets happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect and follow their established routines to provide consistency for their pets.
