“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.”
“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.”
“Christina did a really great job watching my Fur baby Kimmy over Thanksgiving! They let her hangout on the porch, took her on walks, sent me pictures, and even gave her some of the Thanksgiving Turkey! I was worried that kimmy would just want to stay there forever haha thanks Christina and I will definitely try booking with you again”
“Shelley is so kind and wonderful to work with. Miracle seemed right at home! I will most definitely use her services again! Most affordable I’ve found and easiest to communicate with 🥰”
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.
“Cindy did a great job from start to finish. We hit it off from the first home visit and I could tell she was an animal lover. Gertie had no separation anxiety when I left her and I had a great vacation knowing she was in good hands. Lots of pictures and communication kept us in the loop while we were gone. I Highly recommend unless you choose the same week we need her!”
“I always know that Dexter and Charlie will be well cared for while I’m away and treated just like family. They love playing with and sleeping with the other dogs and are always happy and tired by the time I pick them up. I receive wonderful updates every day, including pictures and videos which show my babies having the time of their lives!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Can not praise Derek and Jenn enough, they took care of our very nervous little Jack ( this little chap had a sad start in life and never really knew that humans can be ok) and they let him see how great people can be. Had daily pictures and updates, I never worried once whilst on our holiday, he looked more relaxed every day. Thank you both, I know we will be happy to have Jack stay next time we are away.”
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: 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 spent 25+ years caring for all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, and even reptiles. Living on 17 acres gives plenty of space for safe walks, playtime, and exploring. Whether your pup loves fetch, your cat just wants cuddles, or your reptile needs special attention, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. I work from home so I’m usually always around! With 3 kids here everyone pitches in so your pet will always have someone around to care for them! 17 acres for your pets to explore if they like being outdoors. A comfy home indoors for the less adventurous ones! Our house is clean and safe and welcoming to all sort of animals.
“This is my first time using Rover, and I will never go back. Drew was absolutely amazing incredibly communicative, and I don’t think my dogs have ever felt so well taken care of. Highly recommend her I’d give 10 stars if I could!”
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.

Tammy followed my instructions to a tee and totally respected our home, as well. I would highly recommend her to any pet owner and we will absolutely ask for her help again.”
“Jennifer is a great pet sitter. I had her sit my 2 cats and 2 chickens. The cats were in the process of being toilet trained. Jennifer went beyond expectations and encouraged them like I do. They were so comfortable with her even my one picky cat that hides from strangers. I couldn't have lucked out any better than finding her to take care of my babies!”

About: I have a seriously big heart for our furry friends & ensuring they’re well cared for! From training my own dogs from puppies, to caring for friend’s dogs, and even rescuing & rehabilitating many street dogs, I have a wide range of experience & am always delighted to make a new furry friend. I work remotely during the week, on my own schedule, & am free on the weekends, making me readily available to help care for your pup! As a dog mom myself, I understand the importance our fur friends hold in our lives and how scary it can be to trust someone else to care for them.

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!
About: I have grown up around animals my entire life and have spent the last several years providing dedicated pet care for friends and family. My experience ranges from standard pet sitting to managing more complex care requirements, ensuring that every animal in my charge feels safe and well-attended. I am highly comfortable with dogs of all sizes, from small to large breeds. Beyond basic care, I have significant experience assisting dogs with special needs, including the accurate administration of medications. In addition to my canine experience, I am fully equipped to care for cats and all of their specific needs. My background also extends to farm animals; I have hands-on experience caring for chickens, goats, pigs, and turkeys. If you have a multi-pet household, I am more than capable of managing several animals at once, ensuring each one receives the attention they deserve. I am available any day of the week for evening bookings starting after 6:00 PM. I understand that schedules can change unexpectedly, so I am open to last-minute requests and overnight stays within this timeframe. Whether you need an evening check-in or extended overnight care, I am committed to providing your pets with a high-quality, stress-free experience. While I do not offer boarding services in my own home at this time, I specialize in providing dedicated care within the comfort and familiarity of your pet's own environment. I am available for evening care (after 6:00 PM) and overnight stays, ensuring your home remains secure and your pets remain in their established routines. I believe that every animal has a unique personality and set of needs. I take extra care to be exceptionally gentle and patient, especially with pets that may be shy, senior, or have special requirements. Whether I am administering medication or simply providing companionship, my priority is to move at the pet’s pace to build a foundation of trust. When staying in your home, I treat the space with the utmost respect. I maintain a clean environment and follow all safety protocols—such as double-checking locks and ensuring fences are secure—to give you total peace of mind while you are away. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know your pets are safe, happy, and receiving high-quality care.

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

“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 ?”
“Highly recommend Mariah!! We needed extremely last minute daycare for our 2 pups and Mariah was a life saver! Very communicative, friendly & professional. Sent lots of photo updates & our little ones seemed to have a grand old time with her! Would definitely book again”
“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 :)”
“Shelly is very caring, flexible to our schedule. Lola loved it at Shelly’s place- she was happy each morning when we dropped her off .. fantastic I highly recommend Shelly’s pet care!”
“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 have over 20 years of pet care experience by providing care in my own home, and in clients homes for medium and large dogs as well as cats. I also have 4 years of fostering experience with rescue dogs, including pregnant moms and birthing puppies. With all this experience I have provided medications, given laser therapies (with clients equipment), bottle and syringe fed young pups. I have walked dogs on leash and on slip leads. My mission is to make cats and dogs in my care feel safe, comfortable and loved while their pawrents are gone. We are a couple based sitting service, which allows for your pet to have several outdoor potty and play sessions, and plenty of snuggle time indoors as well. I am open to providing care for 4 dogs in my home in addition to my pack, and am able to take multiple cats (they have their own room in my home so that they are not stressed by the dogs and vice versa). In my home dogs would have access to outside time as needed for the majority of the day. I will follow all expectations for your dog in your home. In our home dogs are allowed on the furniture as we allow our own on the furniture. I believe in positive reinforcement by providing love, treats and redirection. I will not and am not comfortable using shock collars, prong collars or choke collars.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, and I truly love them both. 🐶🐱 I treat every pet like family and I’m the type of sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with them — not just “checking in.” I’m patient, gentle, and very attentive to routines, and I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, and pets who need extra love and reassurance.

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’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.”
“Christina did a really great job watching my Fur baby Kimmy over Thanksgiving! They let her hangout on the porch, took her on walks, sent me pictures, and even gave her some of the Thanksgiving Turkey! I was worried that kimmy would just want to stay there forever haha thanks Christina and I will definitely try booking with you again”
“Shelley is so kind and wonderful to work with. Miracle seemed right at home! I will most definitely use her services again! Most affordable I’ve found and easiest to communicate with 🥰”
“Cindy did a great job from start to finish. We hit it off from the first home visit and I could tell she was an animal lover. Gertie had no separation anxiety when I left her and I had a great vacation knowing she was in good hands. Lots of pictures and communication kept us in the loop while we were gone. I Highly recommend unless you choose the same week we need her!”
“I always know that Dexter and Charlie will be well cared for while I’m away and treated just like family. They love playing with and sleeping with the other dogs and are always happy and tired by the time I pick them up. I receive wonderful updates every day, including pictures and videos which show my babies having the time of their lives!”
“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.”
“Can not praise Derek and Jenn enough, they took care of our very nervous little Jack ( this little chap had a sad start in life and never really knew that humans can be ok) and they let him see how great people can be. Had daily pictures and updates, I never worried once whilst on our holiday, he looked more relaxed every day. Thank you both, I know we will be happy to have Jack stay next time we are away.”
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: I’ve spent 25+ years caring for all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, and even reptiles. Living on 17 acres gives plenty of space for safe walks, playtime, and exploring. Whether your pup loves fetch, your cat just wants cuddles, or your reptile needs special attention, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. I work from home so I’m usually always around! With 3 kids here everyone pitches in so your pet will always have someone around to care for them! 17 acres for your pets to explore if they like being outdoors. A comfy home indoors for the less adventurous ones! Our house is clean and safe and welcoming to all sort of animals.
“This is my first time using Rover, and I will never go back. Drew was absolutely amazing incredibly communicative, and I don’t think my dogs have ever felt so well taken care of. Highly recommend her I’d give 10 stars if I could!”
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.
