Mariah was great from the start! We moved from out of state and it helped to feel comfortable leaving our Grizz with her after a meet and greet. She sent photos, and communicated regularly and promptly with any questions or concerns I had. Prior to this, our Grizz was only cared for by friends or family. While he was happy to be home, he really seemed to have been happy at her place. He had room to run and play with other dogs, which was great after moving away from 4 neighbor dogs! Will definitely reach out again for future needs!

Bethany and her family are the best place by far to leave your dog! She was able to accommodate us last minute for a long stay. Our puppy is only 4 months old and did wonderfully there. She kept up on her routine and helped train her in other areas. She also sent daily pictures and videos for our kids to see. Can’t say enough good things about her.

Ms Melanie was awesome. I could tell the second she saw Oliver that he was in good hands. Oliver had a great time and did not freak when I left because he felt at home too. Thanks Melanie, you'll see us again.

Cindy did a wonderful job taking care of our pup! Taking care of a young puppy is a big job, and she took it on with competence, grace, and kindness. Our puppy seemed to have a wonderful time there, with lots of outdoor adventures and indoor snuggles. Cindy kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, and we never worried about how she was doing. We are so thankful we found her to watch Dove and look forward to another stay in the future!

I know when my dogs stay with Amanda they will be cared for like family. She takes Dexter on hikes to the waterfalls and and long walks. He loves running around the yard with Yukon and Denali and plays all day.He’s pooped out by the end of the day and sleeps well. Dexter whines as we get closer to their home because he’s excited to visit. Charlie my older dog enjoys relaxing in the yard and taking snoozes. I highly recommend for your fur babies.

I didn’t know what to expect as this was my 1st boarding of a pet, but Shelley was very upbeat and patient and communicated promptly with me prior to my scheduled drop off day. My experience was hassle-free! The pictures and videos she sent me of my puppy with his new experiences and interactions with other pets, I was relieved. Upon pick up of Koda, everything went very smooth even though I did arrive sooner than I had expected from my trip. If you are looking to board your fur-baby, I highly recommend Shelley!

About: As a kitten foster and multi-pet household caregiver, I’m used to caring for animals with different needs, energy levels, and personalities. Whether it’s playful kittens, shy cats, or dogs that need structure and attention, I adjust my care to what each pet needs. I’m also comfortable administering medications and paying close attention to behavior and health. I take the time to really understand each animal and respond to what they need—whether that’s extra patience, playtime, routine, or a quieter approach. I take pride in being dependable and communicative. You’ll get consistent updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I offer: • Drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays • Care for multiple pets at once • Medication administration • Extra patience for shy or young animals • Close attention to routines and behavior I treat every pet like my own and focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible :) Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely. As long as I have my laptop, I’m able to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I can care for your pet in my home or yours—whatever makes them most comfortable. If they prefer staying in their own space, I’m happy to bring my work with me and keep their routine consistent. This flexibility means your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. They’ll have companionship, supervision, and a calm presence—whether that’s relaxing on my lap while I work or resting nearby. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a secure, calm environment with close supervision. At my home, pets have access to a large backyard that backs up to a farm and a quiet cul-de-sac street, giving plenty of space to explore safely. While my yard isn’t fenced, I take extra precautions to ensure pets remain secure at all times. I have a small Morkie who enjoys gentle play, and kittens in my care are always excited to meet new friends. Interacting with other animals not only enriches their social experience but also helps kittens become more confident and adoptable. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your routines closely, provide attentive supervision, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and confident in their familiar surroundings.

I could not have asked for a better caregiver than Melissa when it comes to my Belgium Malinois. Melissa is a blessing in disguise! She has so much experience with animals that it makes it’s so easy to leave my fur baby with her without any concerns. Melissa is a very loving caregiver that addresses all the needs of my fur baby and I could not have asked for anything better. If you are looking for a dependable and responsible caregiver thing you should not have to look any further than Melissa. Thank you for everything Melissa.

About: Hello my name is Gigi, I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since i was a little girl from cats, dogs, horses , Etc. Being a pet sitter makes my passion for animals grow even bigger. I am a former vet tech so i also know a lot about dogs health , medicine administration and other things , i am also experienced with training young dogs under the age of 1 . I am a stay at home wife with 2 step kiddos. I have a very flexible schedule therefore i am open at all times for pet sitting.

I have a 2 acre yard and also a play pen for dogs and puppies in my back yard if the pet needs some zoomies time

Christina took great care of our Stevo and checked in daily with photos and comments to let us know how he was doing. He seemed happy and relaxed (and has been known to be slightly anxious, so that was great to see). In addition, Christina raved about our pup's behavior and how much she was bonding with him. We will definitely reach out to Christina again when we need boarding or daycare for Stevo.

About: I’ve spent all of my life with a passion for animals and grew up taking care of pigs for 4-H and FFA as well as riding and caring for about 16+ horses since I was 10 years old. I took veterinary college accredited classes in high school and have owned and cared for 3 dogs over the years. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats but I can take care of them in your home if needed. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a baby on the way in September. I’m am always at home unless I’m out grocery shopping or out at dinner with my fiancé. So I have plenty of time to care and love on your fur baby and make them feel right at home! I have no pets in the home currently and I would only be able to take your dog on walks and around the property to use the restroom as we have no fenced in yard currently. They will be inside most of their stay. When pet sitting at your place I can most of anything that is needed. I do not have a crate available at my house currently so if you would like your baby in a crate or kennel, you would need to supply that as well.

About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about animals. I enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet like my own and always try to give them the attention and care they deserve. Additionally, I have a prosthetic leg, which has made me more adaptable, patient, and attentive in everything I do. It’s taught me how to approach situations with care and awareness qualities that carry over into how I care for animals every day. I’m a Tennessee Tech student, and since I don’t have classes in the afternoons, I have a lot of availability to care for pets. I’m dependable, patient, and I like making sure pets stay active, comfortable, and on their normal routine while their owner is away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, fresh water, walks or bathroom breaks, and time to play. I also spend time with them so they feel comfortable and not alone while their owner is away.

About: I’ve grown up around animals all of my life, including several dogs of my own. I have had puppies all the way up to my dog mack who is 16 and lives with my parents. With the help of my girlfriend who is on the track team at Tennessee Tech University your pet is sure to have a fun time and stay safe. I currently am a full time student and don’t have a job right now so I am home all day on the weekends, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The only days i have class are 12:00 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have plenty of time to spend with your pet and show them the love they deserve. I have a big apartment and have a fenced yard for your pets to run around in and play and also an unfenced yard for walks and runs. I also live close to a dog park to let your dog socialize if that is desired.

I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own and you can expect lots of pictures. I currently do deliveries but your animals will be my priority.

I also have two friendly dogs who love playing with other dogs. If I am in your home I’ll respect whatever rules and schedule you like to keep for your pets.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. From age 18 to present day I’ve always had a dog so I am well adverse in reading their body language and understanding their needs. I have a job that allows me to customize my schedule so I am capable of making a schedule to fit your animals needs whether it be day or night! Personally I feed my dog according to his feeding schedule and look for signs that he needs to go outside to use the bathroom. If your dog or cat requires a specific diet and time for feeding, I’ll be more than happy to follow the guidelines that you have set to ensure your animals are happy and healthy. As far as potty breaks go, I will use a leash for your dog if there’s not a gated area for them to use the bathroom, if they use pee-pads or litter I have no problem handling that either.

About: I have had experience working on a farm with a variety of animals. I also worked at a boarding resort for dogs and cats where I followed feeding schedules, worked with fearful and aggressive dogs and cats, and played with animals residing there. My major in college is animal science with a concentration of pre-veterinarian. I am currently in college taking animal science courses and working around animals weekly. I have pets of my own as well and watch them on a day to day basis. I make sure to build a foundation of trust with the animal before anything. I want your pet to feel comfortable and safe around me and that involves taking things slow and making sure they are comfortable with me. I will feed and water your pet, take them on walks and play with them and make sure they get the exercise needed. Not only that but it depends on how the owner prefers things. If an animal is injured, I won’t over exercise them and do small things like taking a few steps to walk. As long as your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy!

This was my first time trying Rover and I couldn’t be happier! Bethany took really great care of Luna, and provided daily pictures and feedback and even offering training throughout her stay. She was prepared, professional and flexible with my schedule. A additional perk is Bethanys 14 year old daughter (also a dog lover and certified trainer) helps with the dogs and she and Luna had an instant bond. I highly recommend Bethany to anyone searching for a reliable and loving pet sitter ?

They will be inside most of their stay. When pet sitting at your place I can most of anything that is needed. I do not have a crate available at my house currently so if you would like your baby in a crate or kennel, you would need to supply that as well.

Regina is wonderful watching our Schatzi. When Schatzi arrived she was excited to be there. She was a little bit shy because she heard another dog, but I know she settled in quickly. When we picked her up, she was happy but was tired out from all her excitement of the day and needed a nap :)

I would recommend Christina F. for all my pet care. She was very gentle and took the stress off both me and my mini doxies as they have separation anxiety. Plus, this was the first time leaving them with anyone. She made them feel right at home and comfortable and sent photos of them. Definitely, would leave them with her again.

About: I’ve grown up around animals all of my life, including several dogs of my own. I have had puppies all the way up to my dog mack who is 16 and lives with my parents. With the help of my girlfriend who is on the track team at Tennessee Tech University your pet is sure to have a fun time and stay safe. I currently am a full time student and don’t have a job right now so I am home all day on the weekends, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The only days i have class are 12:00 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have plenty of time to spend with your pet and show them the love they deserve. I have a big apartment and have a fenced yard for your pets to run around in and play and also an unfenced yard for walks and runs. I also live close to a dog park to let your dog socialize if that is desired.

About: I've had cats and dogs since the day I was born. I spent years giving my 14 year old dog insulin injections until he passed. I have cared for neighbors' and family members' newborn puppies and senior dogs. I can give medication, feed, and transport your pets to your specifications, and most of all I love animals! I am enrolled in high school until May 2026, over the summer I will work from around 8am-4pm. My schedule is very flexible, so I can check on or care for pets during that time! I have two friendly dogs, who can be kept separate from your pet, they are typically in crates when indoors. I own two cats that are very friendly and typically avoid other cats or dogs. I have a large unfenced yard, and lots of space indoors! I can give doses of medication if necessary, feed 3+ times a day, and I know the importance of staying hydrated, so I will always keep the water bowl full! Let me know if you have any questions.

I am looking for a part-time job as well, but would like to keep pet care as a top priority. I currently do not have a proper fenced in area and would prefer not to have larger breeds until then. I am able to house smaller breeds as long as they are comfortable with two younger dogs. I am fully comfortable with at home visits/house sitting.

About: My name is Hannah, but I go by Mikki. I have had pets since I was 15 years old and they have ranged from cats, dogs, and the exotic! I have a serious love for all the different types of fur-babies and am a proud pet parent myself! I’m the purrfect fit if you love someone enthusiastic about animals and their care, someone who is strict with rules and restrictions, and someone who is flexible! I have worked in a pet boarding type facility in the past and carry much experience wrangling dogs of all sizes and in all group sizes, with all different types of personalities. I also have a dog and cat myself. My daily schedule involves me waking up and letting my dog out while preparing their breakfast. After they eat, we get some snuggles in until it’s time to go potty. Later on, it time for dinner and then a nightly walk 30 minutes to an hour after dinner has been served. That ends our adventure for the day! For Drop-Ins: I stop by for feedings and enrichment for between 30 minutes to an hour. I make sure they care squared away and everything is locked up before I leave. For Walks: It’s simple … we just go for walks. 30 minutes to an hour or whatever set path and time per appointment. For House-Sitting: I set a time for me to come over. I stay for the duration of the appointment set and bring my own necessities so that I don’t have to leave the premises. I stay within your home, where your babies are most comfortable, and provide them with company and a set schedule. Before I confirm a booking, I will ALWAYS set up a meet-and-greet. I need to be able to sit down with the fur-babies and parents so we can get a good view of the vibes and to see if I would be a good fit. These meet-and-greets are NOT OPTIONAL and refusal will result in a CANCELED BOOKING! Sitting should be a comfortable experience for pet, pet parent, and sitter. Checking the vibes and getting details is critical for success.

I use to breed shih-tzu and German Shepherds. Plan on breeding more German Shepherds soon. I currently have 3 dogs of my own and an eclectus parrot. I have basic training experience. I can promise you, your pets will be glad to see you come home but sad to see me leave. I will do my best to make sure your babies are on the same schedule they are used to doing while you are home. Spoling and loving is my speciality. I Can't wait for the opportunity to meet your baby and be able to help the owners as well.

I have a passion for dogs and want to make sure they have the best experience while their owners are away! I have 3 dogs of my own that I compete with in dock diving and waterfowl hunt tests. I’m a super active dog owner that loves to get outdoors! While taking care of your pup they would be treated like my own. I want to give pet parents the piece of mind that their pup is happy and well cared for! I’m very open with communication to make sure everything goes smoothly while in my care. I have my own schedule with being a dog trainer. I dedicate most of my time to dogs/animals. This is my full time job and can always be available. I am super hyper vigilant when it comes to pet safety. Always having a long line attached to your pups if we’re ever on a trail walk. Making sure I have an extra leash. Always going the next step to make sure the dogs are safe.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. From age 18 to present day I’ve always had a dog so I am well adverse in reading their body language and understanding their needs. I have a job that allows me to customize my schedule so I am capable of making a schedule to fit your animals needs whether it be day or night! Personally I feed my dog according to his feeding schedule and look for signs that he needs to go outside to use the bathroom. If your dog or cat requires a specific diet and time for feeding, I’ll be more than happy to follow the guidelines that you have set to ensure your animals are happy and healthy. As far as potty breaks go, I will use a leash for your dog if there’s not a gated area for them to use the bathroom, if they use pee-pads or litter I have no problem handling that either.

About: Hi! I love all kinds of animals and I look forward to helping you when you need to trust someone to take care of your pets while you are away. I currently have 2 indoor/outdoor dogs, and 5 (yes, 5!) indoor cats. I do have a part time job I work at from 3 pm to 11 pm on Sundays and Mondays. I always ask for a meet and greet before booking any bookings, except for same day bookings, and this would be a time where you let me know if you have any cost constraints. I do have a job working two days out of the week, but I have an amazing friend who works with me for pet care needed when I am working for the 16 hours a week. Let us help you by taking a little work and worry off your shoulders! I have 10+ acres ready for some exploring! I also have some outdoor toys to entertain the playful babies. I have two playful pups that are always down for company. I can crate your pet if needed.

About: I have had experience working on a farm with a variety of animals. I also worked at a boarding resort for dogs and cats where I followed feeding schedules, worked with fearful and aggressive dogs and cats, and played with animals residing there. My major in college is animal science with a concentration of pre-veterinarian. I am currently in college taking animal science courses and working around animals weekly. I have pets of my own as well and watch them on a day to day basis. I make sure to build a foundation of trust with the animal before anything. I want your pet to feel comfortable and safe around me and that involves taking things slow and making sure they are comfortable with me. I will feed and water your pet, take them on walks and play with them and make sure they get the exercise needed. Not only that but it depends on how the owner prefers things. If an animal is injured, I won’t over exercise them and do small things like taking a few steps to walk. As long as your pet feels comfortable, safe, and happy!

Mariah was great from the start! We moved from out of state and it helped to feel comfortable leaving our Grizz with her after a meet and greet. She sent photos, and communicated regularly and promptly with any questions or concerns I had. Prior to this, our Grizz was only cared for by friends or family. While he was happy to be home, he really seemed to have been happy at her place. He had room to run and play with other dogs, which was great after moving away from 4 neighbor dogs! Will definitely reach out again for future needs!

Cindy did a wonderful job taking care of our pup! Taking care of a young puppy is a big job, and she took it on with competence, grace, and kindness. Our puppy seemed to have a wonderful time there, with lots of outdoor adventures and indoor snuggles. Cindy kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, and we never worried about how she was doing. We are so thankful we found her to watch Dove and look forward to another stay in the future!

I know when my dogs stay with Amanda they will be cared for like family. She takes Dexter on hikes to the waterfalls and and long walks. He loves running around the yard with Yukon and Denali and plays all day.He’s pooped out by the end of the day and sleeps well. Dexter whines as we get closer to their home because he’s excited to visit. Charlie my older dog enjoys relaxing in the yard and taking snoozes. I highly recommend for your fur babies.

My experience was hassle-free! The pictures and videos she sent me of my puppy with his new experiences and interactions with other pets, I was relieved. Upon pick up of Koda, everything went very smooth even though I did arrive sooner than I had expected from my trip. If you are looking to board your fur-baby, I highly recommend Shelley!

Christina took great care of our Stevo and checked in daily with photos and comments to let us know how he was doing. He seemed happy and relaxed (and has been known to be slightly anxious, so that was great to see). In addition, Christina raved about our pup's behavior and how much she was bonding with him. We will definitely reach out to Christina again when we need boarding or daycare for Stevo.

About: I’ve spent all of my life with a passion for animals and grew up taking care of pigs for 4-H and FFA as well as riding and caring for about 16+ horses since I was 10 years old. I took veterinary college accredited classes in high school and have owned and cared for 3 dogs over the years. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats but I can take care of them in your home if needed. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a baby on the way in September. I’m am always at home unless I’m out grocery shopping or out at dinner with my fiancé. So I have plenty of time to care and love on your fur baby and make them feel right at home! I have no pets in the home currently and I would only be able to take your dog on walks and around the property to use the restroom as we have no fenced in yard currently. They will be inside most of their stay. When pet sitting at your place I can most of anything that is needed. I do not have a crate available at my house currently so if you would like your baby in a crate or kennel, you would need to supply that as well.

About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about animals. I enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet like my own and always try to give them the attention and care they deserve. Additionally, I have a prosthetic leg, which has made me more adaptable, patient, and attentive in everything I do. It’s taught me how to approach situations with care and awareness qualities that carry over into how I care for animals every day. I’m a Tennessee Tech student, and since I don’t have classes in the afternoons, I have a lot of availability to care for pets. I’m dependable, patient, and I like making sure pets stay active, comfortable, and on their normal routine while their owner is away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, fresh water, walks or bathroom breaks, and time to play. I also spend time with them so they feel comfortable and not alone while their owner is away.
