“Alyssa and her family are absolutely amazing! My puppy, who requires A LOT of activity and outdoor time, was extremely happy staying at Alyssa's! I received tons of pictures and videos of my pup playing outside with her family members. What a wonderful experience and I will be booking with her again soon.”
“I’m very thankful with Mariah, my dog Bella really likes her even though she doesn’t like lots of people. That tells me Mariah is very good to her and makes her feel welcome and safe. We will keep using Mariah as our Petsitter.”
“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!”

“For our first experience with Rover, would couldn’t have asked for a better experience than we had with Parker. Our 7-month old pup, Ash, is high energy and we were worried he would be a trouble. No concerns from Parker with his behavior, and Ash came home in perfect spirits to very thankful parents! Looking forward to working with Parker again in the future.”
“Couldn’t have ask for anybody better to take care of our pup I love the way she sends the pictures. Let me know how Piper was doing. The whole time took very good care of her. Recommend her for sure for anyone looking for a sitter piper absolutely love the whole family 😁”
“My dog, Buchoy, had fun at Ms. Bethany's care for 3 nights! He met new friends, went for a car ride, and went for a long walk! Everytime I leave him at Ms. Bethany's, I feel so appeased because I know that he is very safe and that he will enjoy the stay. I highly recommend her!”
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: 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.

“We love Erica so much! She’s amazing with our very high needs English bulldog. Shes an actual godsend to our family. We would never be able to go anywhere if it weren’t for her and her family, all of whom love and care for Hazel so well while we’re away. 10/10 recommend, but also hate to let everyone know how great she is because she may get booked up for the next dates we need. 😂😂”
“I was so nervous leaving my Chihuahua with someone while we traveled. I tend to be overly-attached and anxious, so it was a very big worry. Shelley was amazing, though. She was reassuring and friendly from the beginning of our communication, and she shared frequent updates, photos, and even video of how Miso was doing. He was obviously loved and spoiled there, and I was able to relax and enjoy my trip.”
“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.”
“Sofia and her husband are wonderful pet sitters. They have a real love for dogs. She sent me pictures so I could see how my sweetie was doing and how she was interacting with the other dogs. I felt very comfortable while I had to be gone from her.”
“She watched all 3 of our dogs in her house one is a Great Dane who is very clumsy and big. My lab mix is very skittish and she was patient and kind. Toward the end of their stay he had even started to hang out with her which is a big thing for cow. My dogs really enjoyed hanging out with her dogs, especially Remi who immediately wanted to play with my dogs. Overall I think they had an awesome time.”

About: I have taken care of cats all my life!

“Autumn took such good care of our two senior cats and was incredibly respectful of of home. She was quick to respond and left us notes daily about how they were getting on. She followed our instructions to a tee which allowed me to relax and know they were in great hands. Do not hesitate to trust her with the care of your pets. We will absolutely ask her back in the future.”
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!

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’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11yo. I’ve cared for Australian Shepherds, Poodles, Rat Terriers, Cairn Terriers, Papillions, Irish Wolfhounds and more. I have four dogs now: German Shepherd Mix, German Shorthaired Pointer, and two Pembroke Corgis. I’m familiar with small and large dogs. I’m non-judgmental and understanding if your baby has separation-anxiety. I’m currently looking for work so am completely open to do drop-ins during the day, walks, and more. I can also watch your dog at your place or mine! I have a fully-fenced in yard and four dogs who would love a playmate. I have two kennels, and can kennel your dog if need be. I also offer baths depending on length of stay.
About: i’ve taken care of just about every animal there is! i have bottle fed many and taken them as their mother would not! loved it! i am currently a stay at home mom looking to support my family with a passion love for animals! i am very patient and willing! i can crate if needed and take a long walk if that’s what your pup wants! lots of love and pets and outside time 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!

“Alyssa and her family are absolutely amazing! My puppy, who requires A LOT of activity and outdoor time, was extremely happy staying at Alyssa's! I received tons of pictures and videos of my pup playing outside with her family members. What a wonderful experience and I will be booking with her again soon.”
“I’m very thankful with Mariah, my dog Bella really likes her even though she doesn’t like lots of people. That tells me Mariah is very good to her and makes her feel welcome and safe. We will keep using Mariah as our Petsitter.”
“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!”
“Melanie and James were fantastic with Jax! Jax made himself at home soon after my boyfriend and I left. Melanie and James are very personable people. We will definitely book with them again if/when the need arises.”
“For our first experience with Rover, would couldn’t have asked for a better experience than we had with Parker. Our 7-month old pup, Ash, is high energy and we were worried he would be a trouble. No concerns from Parker with his behavior, and Ash came home in perfect spirits to very thankful parents! Looking forward to working with Parker again in the future.”
“Couldn’t have ask for anybody better to take care of our pup I love the way she sends the pictures. Let me know how Piper was doing. The whole time took very good care of her. Recommend her for sure for anyone looking for a sitter piper absolutely love the whole family 😁”
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.
“We love Erica so much! She’s amazing with our very high needs English bulldog. Shes an actual godsend to our family. We would never be able to go anywhere if it weren’t for her and her family, all of whom love and care for Hazel so well while we’re away. 10/10 recommend, but also hate to let everyone know how great she is because she may get booked up for the next dates we need. 😂😂”
“I was so nervous leaving my Chihuahua with someone while we traveled. I tend to be overly-attached and anxious, so it was a very big worry. Shelley was amazing, though. She was reassuring and friendly from the beginning of our communication, and she shared frequent updates, photos, and even video of how Miso was doing. He was obviously loved and spoiled there, and I was able to relax and enjoy my trip.”
“She watched all 3 of our dogs in her house one is a Great Dane who is very clumsy and big. My lab mix is very skittish and she was patient and kind. Toward the end of their stay he had even started to hang out with her which is a big thing for cow. My dogs really enjoyed hanging out with her dogs, especially Remi who immediately wanted to play with my dogs. Overall I think they had an awesome time.”
About: I’m a dog guy and have owned dogs my entire life. Large dogs like labs, golden retrievers, German Shepherd’s to smaller breeds like doodles, Jack Russell’s and a doxin. I currently own 3 labs and lost a beautiful GSD a few months ago. I’m a realtor. I come and go a lot. I feed am and/or pm and the dogs have fresh water 24/7. My dogs roam my property during the day so the larger boarding dogs will have plenty of space in the dog yard (or in their run). I built a great dog area on my property, including a fenced 5000sf dog yard, dry runs and heated and cooled sleeping/resting areas. Small, crate trained dogs are welcome to stay in my house. Larger dogs will stay in the dog area referenced above. My neighbor is also a groomer. We can coordinated grooming if you are interested in her services.
“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.”
About: I have been a dog groomer for over 4 years and take care of dogs of every kind, every single day, along with having 5 dogs of my own. I have also owned cats my entire childhood and into my adult years. I take care of my pets and others pets all day, every day, so it is just part of my every day life that will never be forgotten. I am well versed on being able to read dog’s body language and emotions, making it so I am able to tailor to every dogs needs individually.
“As soon as we arrived, we felt at ease meeting Presli and Luna. Presli showed us around her home and where our Julio would be for the next few days. We were happy to know he could around with Luna, and be able to relax and sleep inside her home. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our fur baby with Presli, we knew she would care for him like her own! I highly recommend Presli for all your 4 legged babies! If we are back in TN and in need of a sitter, I have Presli information saved. Thank you so much Presli and Luna for welcoming our Julio to your beautiful home and land!”
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.
“Lindsey is a true dog lover, and took extra special care of our dog. Her large farm set up is perfect for a curious and adventurous young dog! And we really appreciated all the updates and photos she sent us. We will be happy to work with her again!”
