“Lindsey was great with our senior doberman, she kept up with all his medications. She was very accommodating and gave us updates on our pup. An added bonus, as a Vet tech, she made us feel very comfortable our dog was in good hands. Thanks Lindsey, we will be using your services again soon!”
“Maddie took exceptional care of our furbabies for a week while we were on vacation. Communication was 10/10 Highly recommend. Our babies were not stressed at all when we picked the up. Thank you Maddie for taking care such great care of them.”
“Jessica was phenomenal. From our meet and greet to pick up, everything was great. She was caring and took the best care of our Chocolate lab. We will definitely be seeing her again.”
“Gabrielle was fantastic! My dog is normally very shy and nervous around new people, she usually doesn't eat while we are gone. Not this time. She took to Gabrielle right away she got along with the other dogs and actual ate her food. Gabrielle sent us wonderful pictures during our time away. Great experience, we will be using her for all our sitting needs. Clifton S.”
“DeRee and her husband and are very experienced, capable and loving dog keepers. My pups had plenty of love, attention, and exercise. Their home and property are set up well for dogs. Her own dogs are very friendly and welcomed mine into their pack. I will be using her again soon.”
“Amazing Family! We brought our dogs with us to TN for the thanksgiving holiday and Cody and Rachel cared for them as we went to several family gatherings throughout our trip. They were so accommodating, even waiting up for us the night of drop off. If we ever bring them again, we will be sure to see if Cody and Rachel are available. Highly recommend!!! Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dogs!”
“We were very pleased with Dana, she sent pics of Bailey and kept us informed on how he was doing, from the pics that she sent to us, Bailey looked right at home and happy. Dana and her family took excellent care of our Bailey. We will definitely rebook with Dana if she’d love to have him back!”
“We are so happy that we found Jane and her family. Jax was so spoiled with love and attention. We received updates and photos letting us know how Jax was doing. We will definitely have Jane and her family watch Jax in the future. Thank you again Jane and Stephen!”
“Shannon was great with Maggie, sent pictures of her throughout the day, was understanding and flexible when I was arranging dates (waiting for grandbaby to be born!), and Maggie enjoyed herself very much while in her care. Thanks, Shannon!”
“April and Rob were wonderful! This was the first time I was away from my dogs for a whole week and they made sure that I had no reasons to worry while on vacation. I hope to be able to use them next time I have to leave town and I will definitely recommend to others.”
“Kelley was very patient and caring with my two cats. It was a long stay and they were very shy at the start. She kept them safe and took care of their needs. She gave good updates on their progress and eventually gained their trust for some good pictures and belly rubs. I would recommend Kelley for boarding your pets. She does a great job!”
“We had a last minute trip over Labor Day weekend and needed someone to watch our boy, Roux. Tiffany was so accommodating, made sure he had everything he needed, and took the time to show me around and make me feel comfortable leaving him. We had a great experience and would definitely recommend her!”
“David and Leslie were awesome! They treated my Callie like their own and sent me updates regularly with pictures. She seemed very comfortable with both of them and got along well with their sweet dog.”
“Darlene is absolutely amazing! So sweet, and I immediately felt at ease leaving Tucker with her. She was very accommodating as we booked pretty last minute. Her professionalism was above and beyond what I've typically experienced with Rover (and I've had fantastic experiences using Rover, so this is a great compliment!). She truly cares for dogs and has a wonderful set up to help them feel at ease, keep them safe, and ensure they enjoy their time while in her care. We wish we lived closer so we could book her again and again!”
“Cynthia and her husband was amazing! They were able to take care of pur dog and ferrets last minute (with only a 5 minute warning if that 😅) and made them feel right at home. Our dog Molly and our ferrets get super stressed when we leave them home so we took them on vacation with us but we needed someone to take care of them while we did activities and Cynthia did not hesitate taking them- even on a Saturday. Molly went right to them with no problem and no hesitation- she fit right in and didn't seem stressed or sad at all when we got her back. Cynthia communicated very well and even sent pictures of Molly and our ferrets and they looked like they were right at home and happy as can be!!! Way better than the daycares that have at least 10 other dogs and usually stick the dogs in a concrete kennel most of the day. You can tell Cynthia and her husband loves animals and cares for them and the animals can sense that. I counld not thank them enough for making their schedule work last minute and for caring for my babies as their own!!!! 🩷”
“Leeann is fantastic! We are so lucky to have found her. Indy absolutely loved being there with other Rover friends and the farm animals. She will definitely be our go to sitter when we go out of town.”

“Everything was great, we couldn't be happier with her service. I don't know what we would do without her help, and she was so easy to work with, it was nice to know we had nothing to worry about while we were away from home. Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!”
“Cheyenne did very well with my cats. I appreciated her keeping up communication before the visits and during with the report cards. It was my first time having someone outside of my family watch my cats, and I will definitely look to hire her again when I take my next trip!”
“Aaron was excellent. We have 2 cats, one old who is friendly, and the other ex feral who is usually terrified of strangers. There I am visiting family, and I get a video of my "feral" bumping around getting her head & butt scratched! Quite a testament to the kind of person Aaron is. The litterbox was spotless. The cat food dishes were washed and neatly stacked. We will not hesitate to use him again.”
About: Growing up, my family had a home rescue of 10 dogs and 6 cats. During my time there, I helped care for all the animals by walking, feeding, administering medication, cleaning, and of course keeping them company! Check-ins with your pet and dog walking: Anytime Pet sitting: Weekdays- I ask for a wi-fi connection to work remotely. Weekends-Anytime Boarding: I have 1 cat who will be kept in a separate room. Currently boarding cats only. Anytime. I care for every pet with patience, attention, and plenty of companionship. Growing up in a home rescue gave me lots of hands-on experience caring for animals with different personalities and needs. For pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, walking, medication, and playtime schedules while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I also offer cat boarding in my home. Please note, I have one cat who will be kept in a separate room. I provide a calm, comfortable space where cats can settle in at their own pace, with regular care, playtime, and companionship. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away.
About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.

About: Hello! Thanks for checking in! I would be glad to help care for your furry family member 🐶❤️🐈. A little about me--I have had a love for animals since I was young, and I find that I have always felt most at home surrounded by our furry, four-footed family over the years. We have had animals all my life, and we have raised several breeds of dogs including Dalmatian, Cocker Spaniel, Blue and Red Heelers, Australian Shepherd, Border Collie, Boxer, Standard Poodles, Great Pyranees, and many more loveable mixed breeds. I have taken care of dogs and puppies since I was 5 years old. They were always like family to me, and I have many years of experience of their care and basic command training for puppies using positive reinforcement. I have experience caring for sick and senior dogs as well as every canine that has come into our family has found their forever home and lived out their fullest lives possible. If your pup needs some freshening up, a haircut, or a pedicure, I can help with that. I am a professional pet stylist and member of the NDGAA. I have continued education through NDGAA workshops and worked full-time at a pet salon for a few years while also grooming my own dogs, Standard Poodles, their whole lives (14 years.) I can bathe or groom your dog or trim their nails if needed. I currently work part-time, and I have quite a bit of extra time to care for your pups and kitties. Wednesdays and Sundays are our busiest days, so I will not be able to offer pickup on those days, but the other days are open. I have a fenced yard, and I will leash your dog on walks for extra care. They are free to be downstairs in my home with me and our family, and I will kennel for their safety when and if we leave the home for short errands. For pet care in their home, I can take on walks, let outside into fenced yard, feed, water, and bathe/groom the dogs or trim nails if needed. I also have trained several puppies basic commands using clicker-training and positive reinforcement.
“Lyndsey and her kids were wonderfully sweet to my dog while I visited a tourist attraction. She was very prompt in all of our communications and understanding when I mistook a time zone difference! Lyndsey has a lot of experience and I highly recommend her for your pets needs!”

“We’re so attached to River that he only ever stays with us or at his “home sitter’s “ house. While camping near BlueRidge we decided to take the scenic train. Pets aren’t allowed. We found Judy with 5 stars and rave reviews and we are so thankful we did! She took him hiking and loved on him and he did very well. We were anxious to get a sitter in an area we didn’t know anyone. Now we have a wonderful sitter when we come back to the area. Judy sent pictures and let us know River was doing well! I 100% recommend!!”

About: Caring for animals has been a constant joy in my life since childhood, and I bring over 25 years of experience as both a pet owner and sitter. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, comfortable with oral and injectable medications, and able to accommodate pets with special diets or unique needs. My experience includes caring for puppies who need training and patience, as well as senior pets who require extra gentleness and support. What sets me apart is the home and environment I provide— Our little farm offers space to explore, a secure fenced yard for safe play, and the love of my entire family. With three children who adore animals, every pet gets an abundance of cuddles, companionship, and supervision. I understand how hard it can be to leave your beloved pets, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. As a stay-at-home mom, I spend about 80% of my time at home. This allows me to give pets consistent love, attention, and supervision throughout the day. My three children, who are all animal lovers, also enjoy providing extra playtime and cuddles, making sure your pet always feels included and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on a 2-acres with a secure fenced-in yard for safe, off-leash play and exploration. Pets are never left alone for long periods and are treated like part of our family. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified, experienced in administering medications, and happy to accommodate special diets or crate training if preferred. Our home is filled with love, supervision, and plenty of cozy spots for relaxation so your pet feels secure and happy.

About: I had a Bichon Frise from age of 8 to 19. I have taken care of my friend’s bulldog and golden doodle for a year or so and I have also dog sat wheaten doodles and labradors. I also volunteered at the ARL! I am a college student looking to spend some time with doggos! I work part time and volunteer but I have a pretty flexible schedule! I feel comfortable putting leashes and harnesses on dogs as well as letting into crates if needed! I feel comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and understand that some dogs just don’t like to be around others & I can respect and control that!

“Lindsey was great with our senior doberman, she kept up with all his medications. She was very accommodating and gave us updates on our pup. An added bonus, as a Vet tech, she made us feel very comfortable our dog was in good hands. Thanks Lindsey, we will be using your services again soon!”

“Jessica was phenomenal. From our meet and greet to pick up, everything was great. She was caring and took the best care of our Chocolate lab. We will definitely be seeing her again.”
“Gabrielle was fantastic! My dog is normally very shy and nervous around new people, she usually doesn't eat while we are gone. Not this time. She took to Gabrielle right away she got along with the other dogs and actual ate her food. Gabrielle sent us wonderful pictures during our time away. Great experience, we will be using her for all our sitting needs. Clifton S.”
“DeRee and her husband and are very experienced, capable and loving dog keepers. My pups had plenty of love, attention, and exercise. Their home and property are set up well for dogs. Her own dogs are very friendly and welcomed mine into their pack. I will be using her again soon.”
“Amazing Family! We brought our dogs with us to TN for the thanksgiving holiday and Cody and Rachel cared for them as we went to several family gatherings throughout our trip. They were so accommodating, even waiting up for us the night of drop off. If we ever bring them again, we will be sure to see if Cody and Rachel are available. Highly recommend!!! Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dogs!”
“We were very pleased with Dana, she sent pics of Bailey and kept us informed on how he was doing, from the pics that she sent to us, Bailey looked right at home and happy. Dana and her family took excellent care of our Bailey. We will definitely rebook with Dana if she’d love to have him back!”
“We are so happy that we found Jane and her family. Jax was so spoiled with love and attention. We received updates and photos letting us know how Jax was doing. We will definitely have Jane and her family watch Jax in the future. Thank you again Jane and Stephen!”
“Shannon was great with Maggie, sent pictures of her throughout the day, was understanding and flexible when I was arranging dates (waiting for grandbaby to be born!), and Maggie enjoyed herself very much while in her care. Thanks, Shannon!”
“April and Rob were wonderful! This was the first time I was away from my dogs for a whole week and they made sure that I had no reasons to worry while on vacation. I hope to be able to use them next time I have to leave town and I will definitely recommend to others.”
“Kelley was very patient and caring with my two cats. It was a long stay and they were very shy at the start. She kept them safe and took care of their needs. She gave good updates on their progress and eventually gained their trust for some good pictures and belly rubs. I would recommend Kelley for boarding your pets. She does a great job!”
“We had a last minute trip over Labor Day weekend and needed someone to watch our boy, Roux. Tiffany was so accommodating, made sure he had everything he needed, and took the time to show me around and make me feel comfortable leaving him. We had a great experience and would definitely recommend her!”
“Darlene is absolutely amazing! So sweet, and I immediately felt at ease leaving Tucker with her. She was very accommodating as we booked pretty last minute. Her professionalism was above and beyond what I've typically experienced with Rover (and I've had fantastic experiences using Rover, so this is a great compliment!). She truly cares for dogs and has a wonderful set up to help them feel at ease, keep them safe, and ensure they enjoy their time while in her care. We wish we lived closer so we could book her again and again!”
“Cynthia and her husband was amazing! They were able to take care of pur dog and ferrets last minute (with only a 5 minute warning if that 😅) and made them feel right at home. Our dog Molly and our ferrets get super stressed when we leave them home so we took them on vacation with us but we needed someone to take care of them while we did activities and Cynthia did not hesitate taking them- even on a Saturday. Molly went right to them with no problem and no hesitation- she fit right in and didn't seem stressed or sad at all when we got her back. Cynthia communicated very well and even sent pictures of Molly and our ferrets and they looked like they were right at home and happy as can be!!! Way better than the daycares that have at least 10 other dogs and usually stick the dogs in a concrete kennel most of the day. You can tell Cynthia and her husband loves animals and cares for them and the animals can sense that. I counld not thank them enough for making their schedule work last minute and for caring for my babies as their own!!!! 🩷”
“Leeann is fantastic! We are so lucky to have found her. Indy absolutely loved being there with other Rover friends and the farm animals. She will definitely be our go to sitter when we go out of town.”
About: I was an accredited dog trainer with Petsmart. Now I am a veterinary assistant in school to be a veterinary technician. I have kennel experience and I foster dogs from rescues and shelters. I begin my new job July 6th so I am open to board/house sit/train. I will be working 8am-5pm at the local animal shelter as the veterinary assistant. So I can also train dogs after work. I was the dog trainer at Petsmart I also worked home health care for many years. I was a cna for 16 years prior to switching to dog training. I had a change of heart and decided to change to the career I wanted to do the most which was work with dogs. I am a dog trainer and we can do in home training or meet at the park for training. No flexi leads we can use a 20 foot training leash if having room to run is an issue for you.
About: Pet care in our home is truly a calling for me. I have over 35 years of experience caring for animals, and I humbly believe God has given me a special gift for working with them. I provide hands-on, attentive care every day, including walking, feeding, basic training reinforcement, and—most importantly—genuine affection and companionship. I offer a calm, structured, and nurturing environment where pets are treated like family, not just clients. I am comfortable working with a wide variety of pets and take the time to understand each animal’s unique needs and personality. Your pet will receive patient, individualized care, plenty of interaction, and a safe, loving place to feel at home while you’re away. Pet care is woven into my daily routine. Between homeschooling our daughter and managing our home and all the projects of our Farm, caring for animals through feeding, walks, training, playtime, and supervision is a consistent, intentional part of every day! I care for pets in our home as if they are part of our family. They receive a safe, calm environment with structured routines that include feeding, walks, playtime, rest, and one-on-one attention. I take time to understand each pet's personality, comfort level, and needs, whether that means active engagement, gentle training, or quiet companionship. Pets are closely supervised, shown patience and kindness, and given plenty of affection so they feel secure, respected, and at home while in my care.
