Personalized care for your dog or cat - Walden
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Walden
“Tish is amazing! She took my two dogs when I had to leave town at the last minute. She was so kind and made sure they felt right at home. We were updated frequently with photos and videos which was much appreciated. The drop off and pick up were so easy and I can’t wait to use her again! Thank you Tish!”
“Brandi and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog. She sent me lots of updates and pictures and had great communication. I felt completely confident our dog was safe and taken care of. Our dog was a little dramatic with their sweet older dog and Brandi was so kind navigating that (was totally our dog’s fault).”
“Echo is an amazing pet sitter! She watched our cat and took exceptional care of her! Echo sent pictures of how Snow was doing and I know she was so happy to be there! Will definitely be rebooking with Echo in the future!”
“George and his wife were excellent! Great communication, and they even graciously let us book an additional night when we decided to extend our trip. We will definitely request for our pup to stay with them again when we’re in the Chattanooga area!”
“Our dog loved staying with Rachel & her family!! So much so that he didn’t want to leave when it was time to go. 😂 Rachel was communicative and lovely and she took amazing care of our pup. We’re always a little anxious when we leave him, but it was clear from the many pictures and texts that he was well cared for, happy, and safe. We will absolutely be repeat clients.”
“Alora was super great! My little old man had such a blast and is now pleasantly tired! She did well keeping me updated with lots of pictures! 10/10 Will be booking with her again!”
“I would recommend Carrie. She was great at communicating and sharing updates about our dog,Winnie’s, visit. Carie made Winnie feel right at home from the first moment of meeting her. Winnie had a great week with Carrie!”
“i have never been happier!! I’m not sure I can ever leave my dog w/ another sitter again — Christina and her family have spoiled us on anyone else 😂 15/10 highly recommend!!”
“Megan was absolutely wonderful with Marley! From the very first night, she sent a photo of him happily settled on the couch, and I immediately knew he was comfortable and in great hands. Throughout his stay, she sent daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Marley received plenty of love, attention, and care. Megan, and her husband Chris, have a beautiful, secure backyard, and Marley got along great with Poppy. I truly appreciated her excellent communication and the genuine affection she showed Marley during his stay. Finding someone you trust with your dog is invaluable, and Megan made the entire experience stress-free. Marley came home happy and well cared for, and I am already looking forward to the next time he gets to visit. Highly recommend!”
“Joseph was very responsive and our pups came back happy which is always a good sign. We even have a 20 week old puppy and he did great with them. I would recommend him to anyone.”
“Crista was great. Our Ellie was well taken care of during her two night stay. We will utilize Crista in the future. The special was that Ellie got a goodie bag that she is fully enjoying now after she is back with us.”
“Stephanie took GREAT care of our two pups, and it gave us peace of mind to know that they were in such good and caring hands while we were away for a full week. Great communication, great caregiving, happy pups -- highly recommend!”
“Great home-away-from-home for our Corgi mix. Waffle had two other dogs to play with—one a full Corgi—and a little girl, and he loves children. Brooke was great at accommodating our furbaby’s separation anxiety and our cluelessness on his first time away from us, for a week! Will be back next time we need a pet sitter.”
“Crystal is wonderful! She went above and beyond to answer any questions or worries I had. She was quick to respond when I asked how my pup was doing, and my dog came back exhausted. He had a blast playing with the other pups. I definitely recommend Crystal and her family to watch over your furry friend. Definitely going to be a returning customer.”
“Joseph was absolutely amazing with our fur baby, Rosco! His communication was excellent, he made the entire process super easy, and put our minds at ease being away. We received pictures/videos throughout each day and it was easy to see that Rosco was happy and felt right at home. 10/10 I highly recommend booking with him!”
“Brittany was a wonderful sitter for our big playful boy while we were gone for a week. She updated and sent photos almost every day, she made him very comfortable and seemed to truly enjoy having him. We will definitely use her services again and highly recommend her. Thank you Brittany 🐾”
“I hesitate to leave a review, honestly, because I don’t want more people taking up all of Amber’s availability! She really helped me out of a jam—two jams, actually—when she accepted my last-minute booking (like, basically 24 hours notice) when my other sitter canceled for an emergency, AND she VERY generously agreed to watch my dog for an extra night when I was stuck overnight at a the airport. Amber shared daily photos and videos and other updates. She’s both proactive and quickly responsive. Will happily trust her to watch my pup anytime. But for my sake, please just…find someone else 🙏🏻”
“Jessica was amazing. She was very nice and took great care of Daisy. She was great with communicating with us before and during our time away. Daisy was happy and healthy and seemed like she had a great time. We would not hesitate to book with Jessica again in the future.”

“I had to book last-minute, & Nicole was responsive, flexible, & communicative. Made the whole process super easy! When she stopped by to check on him, she made sure he had enough food & water, & they got some good playtime in! I felt confident that Earl was in good hands, & that gave me a lot of peace of mind :) Can’t recommend her enough! Will definitely book again with her in the future. Thanks for taking such great care of Earl!”
“Sarah was so sweet and very through with pet care, pictures and updates throughout and went above and beyond to care for all my pets and they all seemed very happy with her company. I will definitely book her again when needed!”
“Cayla was great! She took great care of my very shy cat and even got him to warm up to her :) She was also so flexible with my unexpected change in travel plans. Highly recommend - thanks Cayla!”
“We had a great experience with Katie when we were out of town for a week and she was stopping by the house 3x a day to look our three cats. We had no problems at all, she showed up when she said she would and sent enough updates to know everything was going well without overloading us. Next time we head on a trip, we will be happy to use her again.”
“Kari does a great job taking care of our pets! She communicates any concerns while checking on the animals and sends daily updates and pictures. We trust Kari and we will continue to book her to take care of our pets!”
“JaNiya is the best pet sitter I have ever used! She had clear and daily communication, fulfilled all of my requests, and went above and beyond by being flexible with my arrival/departure times. My cats are extremely happy with their experience and so am I! :) Will 100% be booking with her again.”
About: What sets me apart? You'll have to tell me that since I'm just beginning my pet sitting journey. I suppose I would say, I am calm, mellow, laid back, and that sets cats at ease. I have administered medication, I'm very efficient and clean about litter clean up and will follow dietary guidelines directed by you. We can play with toys or I can give a nice brushing or I can just sit with them and take a nap.
“She was always on time and easy to communicate with. Great with my feline and left in-app notes to let me know how the visit went if there were any issues/concerns. Def recommend to others!”
“Sydney provided excellent care for my pets while I was out for a week. She followed instructions perfectly and we returned to happy cats. I highly recommend her and she is a pleasure to work with.”
“The cats loved their time with Cheyenne! I knew they were in good hands the first time we met. When the need for quality care comes up so, I hope Cheyenne will be able to help.”
“This was my first time using Rover.com or any pet sitting service. After reading Hal's reviews I felt pretty good about him. I originally was going to be away for 11 nights over the holidays, but I decided to extend for 3 extra nights. Hal was available to look after my 2 cats for the extra nights, which was great! I have one super friendly cat and one that is skiddish, but they both warmed up to Hal right away. Hal is very attentive and professional! I won't be home for 2 more days but I didn't want to wait too let others know how awesome of a job Hal has done. The updates and pictures of my fur buddies getting attention and giving attention to Hal have been absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend Hal to anyone with cats or any other pets. He's a pet pleaser for sure!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Walden
“Sara is amazing with Leo! He is so happy when he gets to go to her house and I always know he is well taken care of and has a blast. Will definitely keep asking Sara to hang with my boy!”
“Amazing experience!! Needed last minute doggie daycare while I was away at a baby shower for 4-5 hours which was longer than I wanted to leave my 8 week old Winston in a kennel. Rachel was available and able to help. So blessed and thankful to be able to do what I needed to do without worrying about him. He had fun, she fed him when he got hungry, and he slept until I got back. She sent updated pics too which eased my mind he was in great hands! What a blessing and lifesaver she is. Will definitely be using her service again.”

I love animals and have a very open schedule, so I am looking to spend my time doing something i love- caring for animals! I have cared for animals of all personalities and types, and have experience handling medications and fixing invisible fences as well! Im currently a fresh grad and job searching so I can very flexible. I want to keep working while i search for my next move in life! I live in an apartment downtown, so I do not have a yard. That being said, it is better for me to house-sit than board, but I am open to boarding as i live near several parks like Marion square!
“George and his family took excellent care of my dog, Fennec. I got regular updates and a couple of photos, so I never worried. My nervous boy, Fenn, settled in easily with George and the kids. I will definitely take Fenn there again. I highly recommend!”
“Miller had another great adventure with Justin! Came home and immediately settled into bed for the night because he was so tuckered out. If you have a high energy job, I cannot recommend Justin enough!”
“I’ve used Joseph a few times now, and he’s been amazing every time. My puppy has so much fun and always comes home tired (in the best way). Joseph is reliable, caring, and someone I fully trust with my dog.”
“Dominique was wonderful! Our sitter fell through at the last minute and she took great care of our boy for the day with updates throughout! Would leave him with her again for daycare! 😊”
“It is so reassuring to know your pets are being watched by someone who makes dogs, their career. Someone unflustered by two busy, not quite fully polished pups. I’ll be back again next time I visit Chattanooga!”
“Lucky has stayed with Angela for "Doggy Daycare" the past several weeks. Angela does a great job taking care of Lucky! Lucky enjoys playing with their sweet dog Lucy and the rest of the family. Each day, Lucky is excited to be dropped off at Angela's. I would definitely recommend booking with her!”
About: I’m a professional dog trainer who apprenticed under Kevin Behan founder of Natural Dog Training and author of Your Dog is Your Mirror. I have worked with all kinds of dog, both in terms of breeds and behaviors. I was also the head trainer and a manager of one of the largest boarding facilities in Vermont, Oh My Dog. I have plans for a small kennel and training out of my house long term. Available all week days and possibly weekends with reasonable notice. I have six acres of wooded land that backs up to hundreds of acres of state owned land. I have a fenced in play yard, and two side kennels that get all day shade. Also have space to accommodate crates as well!
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring her to care for my furry friends and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a deep love and respect for animals, and it showed in the way she interacted with my dogs. I was able to enjoy my time away with complete peace of mind, knowing that my dogs were in great hands. When I returned, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for. I can't recommend Sonja and Yolanda highly enough - if you're looking for responsible, caring, and trustworthy dog sitters, look no further!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a baby, and currently own a pug myself! I used to volunteer as well at an animal clinic before becoming a nurse. Now I’m a SAHM to three (not fur) babies and would love to give dedicated care to yours with fur! I am a SAHM of three kiddos! One is a baby, and the others are 3 and 4. We spend lots of time out in the yard or going on walks. And if we need to travel to let your animal out, they love to go on trips! Our schedule is wide open. I have a fenced in yard and one dog that goes inside/outside. I do have children, so the dog/cat has to be kid friendly of course. Having owned the dog and cats — my kids are well trained on being gentle and kind to animals of all shapes and sizes! (And when to leave them alone, ie meal time)
About: As a deeply empathetic and compassionate mental health professional, I am dedicated to providing exceptional pet sitting services that cater to the emotional and physical well-being of your pets. With a Doctorate degree in Psychology and a Masters degree in Counseling with internship training in animal-assisted modalities, I bring a unique blend of expert care and emotional insight to my role. Throughout my post-graduate internship, I gained invaluable experience working with therapy animals to assist children and adults, enhancing their emotional and social well-being. This role not only deepened my expertise in animal behavior and welfare but also reinforced my natural inclinations for empathy and understanding, allowing me to connect with animals in a profound and meaningful way. In my professional pet sitting services, I apply these traits by ensuring each pet receives nurturing attention, recognizing their individual needs and adjusting care accordingly. I strive to create a comforting and stimulating environment, where your pets feel understood, cared for, and safe. I am prepared for both short-term and long-term assignments, passionately committed to offering your pets a loving and attentive experience. I work remotely and have a moderately flexible schedule with a few set tasks throughout. Depending on location and need, I can be somewhat flexible. I prioritize creating a nurturing and safe environment whether at my home or a client's home. I leverage my background in psychology and animal-assisted therapy to understand and cater to the unique emotional and physical needs of each pet. This includes maintaining a structured routine with regular feeding, exercise, and playtime to keep pets active and engaged. I also provide constant companionship and emotional support, ensuring that pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved in their temporary environment. My approach is flexible and adaptable, designed to meet the specific requirements of each pet and the preferences of their owners.
About: Hi, I'm Alora! I'm a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, ferrets, goats, pigs, and chickens. I'm certified in Cat & Dog First Aid through the Red Cross and am experienced with senior pets, special needs pets, and energetic puppies. I'm a Rover Star Sitter and stay home during the day, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care for the pets I welcome into my home. My husband and I share our home with our two school age boys and our two friendly Mini Australian Shepherds, Baloo and Akela. We have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, potty breaks, and exercise, and I also offer walks around our quiet neighborhood. I accept a limited number of pets at a time so each guest receives plenty of individualized attention and care. Whether your pet is staying for boarding, daycare, a walk, or a drop-in visit, they'll be treated like family. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I’m home full time with my two school age boys, so I’m able to give plenty of love and attention to every pet I care for. From morning potty breaks and walks to evening snuggles, your pup is part of our daily routine. We go on neighborhood walks, enjoy playtime, and keep you updated with photos along the way. Your pet will feel like part of the family while you’re away! 🐾 In my home: Pets are part of the family! I provide lots of love, playtime, walks, and regular potty breaks. I keep their routines as close to home as possible. In my client’s home: I follow all care instructions carefully feeding, walks, medications, and plenty of attention so your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have been a pet owner many times through my childhood and well into adulthood. I also worked for ‘Just Fur the Weekend’, a pet boarding company where I had the opportunity to foster lovely relationships between the pet owner and pets. Trust, quality care and comfort are very important to me! I am a stay at home mom with two kids under five. We are a pet lovers household. Between the three of us your pet will have a lot of fun playdates and quality time. Routine walks and playdates are essential to maintaining a healthy and active day. Potty training for indoor/outdoor pups and precision meal planning. If any meds are necessary, we’ll make sure we’re on the same page.
“Gaby was very flexible with my fluctuating schedule. She was also very welcoming and patient with my pup. She reported back about his day and how he behaved during day care. I highly recommend Gaby.”
“Finn had a great time with Joslynne for doggy daycare! He loved having so many friends to play with. Joslynne was very responsive and flexible with pick up/drop off. Would definitely use her again if we’re in the area!”

“Journey has taken care of my pup several times now. She communicates well and has been available for a few last minute requests which is super helpful for my unpredictable work schedule. She’s great!”
About: I've always had a passion for caring for animals & have had them in my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I've cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior animals with special needs. I volunteered for several years at a local animal shelter, where I spent time caring for cats and walking/training dogs. Having had an elderly dog myself, I know how to handle the specific needs of older pets too - managing mobility issues, administering medications, & ensuring they are comfortable and well cared for. I know just how hard it can be to have someone new care for your pet, so I prioritize communication. I'm happy to always send pics + regular updates to give you peace of mind & help you feel connected! Having a cat that needs fairly specific care, I'm committed to knowing & following your pet's specific care. If they need an active schedule with lots of walks and playtime or gentle care due to age or health concerns, I'll ensure they get the best attention possible. My goal is to make sure you & your pet are happy & comfortable while I’m watching them, so I always treat every animal as if they were my own fur baby. I have a very flexible work schedule, which makes it easy for me to accommodate your pet care needs, whether it's regular check-ins or walks/feeding. I’m able to ensure they get all the attention, exercise, & care they need :) As an attentive animal lover - whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime - I pay close attention & follow your pets usual routine. I take safety seriously - securing doors, gates, and following any specific instructions you provide. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy and cared for in their own familiar environment!
“JaNiya was amazing with my dog, Goose! I can always tell if he’s been well taken care of by how calm he is when I return from work. She even gave some love to my cat, too!”
About: I have nearly ten years of experience working with so many amazing animals. By working at three different pet resorts and two different veterinary clinics, I have gained so much knowledge and many helpful tips on how to ensure all dogs and cats that I care for are in the best hands possible. I am certified in pet CPR and am more than comfortable with feeding and medicating animals according to their preferences and needs. My favorite activity when taking care of the animals is spending quality time with them! Whether it’s going for a nice walk in the sunshine or lounging on the couch, I will always make sure that your fur baby feels safe, comfortable and happy!
About: Hi! I’m Keira, a 21 year old lifelong dog lover from Chattanooga (Soddy-Daisy/Lakesite area) who’s completely obsessed with giving dogs the best care possible! I only take one house-sitting booking at a time so I can give your home and your pets my complete love and attention. Your fur babies will be my whole world while you’re away — I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and very loved every single day! I had the privilege of caring for my soul dog Charley (a mini schnauzer) for almost 10 years. During that time I learned so much about loving and caring for dogs — including giving daily subcutaneous fluids when he needed them. Because of him, I’m especially gentle and patient with senior dogs, but I also adore puppies and their endless energy! I’m very loving, attentive, and flexible with scheduling. Whether you need daily walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your fur baby will get lots of cuddles, playtime, and genuine affection while you’re away. I’d be honored to care for your dog (or cat! I’m very good with cats although I do have fewer years of experience with them!) Feel free to message me with any questions 💕 I’m currently between jobs so all of my focus is on animal care! I have a super open schedule so your furry friend will get so much attention and love!! I can’t offer care from my home, I live with too many people and would hate to stress out your pet, but I can come and stay in your home, whether it be overnight or drop-ins. I’m very good about feeding on time, watching the water bowl, giving frequent potty breaks, and taking a few walks throughout the day. I will also adhere to any special requests you may have for your pup!
“Sydney is wonderful with animals! Our dog Scooby took to her right away. She is very personable and you can tell she has a love for animals. We feel confident leaving our dog in her care.”
About: I like dogs and I like getting outside and being active. If I can ever support/help you by taking your dog for a walk/run I would be honored! Sunday - Thursday: most often I'm available before 8AM and after 5PM. Friday and Saturday: with advanced notice I can make just about anything work! I've often been asked by friends to care for their pets when they go out of town and am always glad to do so. I seek to be someone who is reliable and keeps their commitments.
About: I am 37 and have been petsitting since I was in middle school. I have grown up with animals in my home. I also worked in a cat vet clinic when I was in college and have experience medicating and giving subQ fluids. I love walking and hiking with dogs and taking the dogs for car rides! I have also fostered cats and dogs for local rescues. I work full time Monday-Friday as a PreK teacher. My work schedule is 7:00-3:30. I am available most evenings and weekends for extra services, such as dog walking and outings. I have a fenced yard (chain link) and supervise their play. I have two friendly dogs (Husky mix and a pit bull mix) who would be around your dog or cat. My 5 cats roam the house freely. I can crate your dog(s) if needed while I am at work. If your pet stays in your home, I can offer up to 3 visits per day on weekdays, up to 4 on weekends depending on how far you are from my house. If you need care for a cat, you can choose to have them around my cats and dogs (must be up to date on vaccinations and parasite free) or I can have them in their own room.
About: I’ve been rescuing animals since I could talk: dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, lizards, turtles, anything with a pulse lol. I am a veterinary social worker with a passion in the animal human bond. I have recently started training to be a dog trainer. I have experience working with high energy dog breeds, puppies, kittens, and senior animals. Many of the skills that I use as a therapist are transferable to training and bonding with animals. It’s so exciting to connect the information I know about humans with working with animals. I work full time as a therapist and am gone for about 3-4 hours at a time. After 3-4 hours I come home to check on all animals. Weekends I am completely open. The day typically starts around 8am in my household and schedule may vary depending on the needs of the animals in my home. I have a fenced in yard and designated dog room for crating animals while I am away. It is important to me that your animals safety is top priority, so when unsupervised they will be crated in a room designed for their comfort. I have 2 friendly pups who have been through professional training & one cat who minds his own business. I have the ability to separate your animals from other animals if needed. I can accommodate various needs.
About: I’ve been a pet owner since I was a child and grew up on a farm, where caring for animals was part of my daily life. I had Boston Terriers along with a variety of other animals, and they were my responsibility, so I learned early on how to read animal behavior, stay patient, and provide consistent care. What sets me apart is that my schedule allows me to be flexible. I’m also reliable and able to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all ages, including puppies who need structure and basic training, as well as senior dogs who may require a slower pace, extra patience, or medication routines. I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, safe, and dependable environment so both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine alongside grad school. I plan my schedule so I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I keep my availability updated to stay consistent. During the week, I balance classes with pet care by organizing my day around walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I also keep my weekends more open, which allows me to take on additional bookings, longer visits, or overnight care. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. My goal is to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, while keeping their environment clean and secure. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and supervised environment where they can feel comfortable. I make sure they get regular walks, structured feeding times, and lots of interaction, while also giving them space to relax if needed. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, whether that’s high-energy play, basic puppy routines, or slower, gentle care for senior pets. My focus is always on making pets feel safe, cared for, and at home.

“Hal took the time to really understand my dog's needs. He was always professional and very easy to work with. He sent me updates every time he walked Charleigh, and let me know when she was having an off day, which is very important to me as a senior dog owner. Charleigh also loved him!! I highly recommend Hal for taking care of your pet.”

“Tish is amazing! She took my two dogs when I had to leave town at the last minute. She was so kind and made sure they felt right at home. We were updated frequently with photos and videos which was much appreciated. The drop off and pick up were so easy and I can’t wait to use her again! Thank you Tish!”
“Echo is an amazing pet sitter! She watched our cat and took exceptional care of her! Echo sent pictures of how Snow was doing and I know she was so happy to be there! Will definitely be rebooking with Echo in the future!”
“George and his wife were excellent! Great communication, and they even graciously let us book an additional night when we decided to extend our trip. We will definitely request for our pup to stay with them again when we’re in the Chattanooga area!”
“Our dog loved staying with Rachel & her family!! So much so that he didn’t want to leave when it was time to go. 😂 Rachel was communicative and lovely and she took amazing care of our pup. We’re always a little anxious when we leave him, but it was clear from the many pictures and texts that he was well cared for, happy, and safe. We will absolutely be repeat clients.”
“i have never been happier!! I’m not sure I can ever leave my dog w/ another sitter again — Christina and her family have spoiled us on anyone else 😂 15/10 highly recommend!!”
“Megan was absolutely wonderful with Marley! From the very first night, she sent a photo of him happily settled on the couch, and I immediately knew he was comfortable and in great hands. Throughout his stay, she sent daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Marley received plenty of love, attention, and care. Megan, and her husband Chris, have a beautiful, secure backyard, and Marley got along great with Poppy. I truly appreciated her excellent communication and the genuine affection she showed Marley during his stay. Finding someone you trust with your dog is invaluable, and Megan made the entire experience stress-free. Marley came home happy and well cared for, and I am already looking forward to the next time he gets to visit. Highly recommend!”
“Joseph was very responsive and our pups came back happy which is always a good sign. We even have a 20 week old puppy and he did great with them. I would recommend him to anyone.”
“Crista was great. Our Ellie was well taken care of during her two night stay. We will utilize Crista in the future. The special was that Ellie got a goodie bag that she is fully enjoying now after she is back with us.”
“Stephanie took GREAT care of our two pups, and it gave us peace of mind to know that they were in such good and caring hands while we were away for a full week. Great communication, great caregiving, happy pups -- highly recommend!”
“Great home-away-from-home for our Corgi mix. Waffle had two other dogs to play with—one a full Corgi—and a little girl, and he loves children. Brooke was great at accommodating our furbaby’s separation anxiety and our cluelessness on his first time away from us, for a week! Will be back next time we need a pet sitter.”
“Joseph was absolutely amazing with our fur baby, Rosco! His communication was excellent, he made the entire process super easy, and put our minds at ease being away. We received pictures/videos throughout each day and it was easy to see that Rosco was happy and felt right at home. 10/10 I highly recommend booking with him!”
“Brittany was a wonderful sitter for our big playful boy while we were gone for a week. She updated and sent photos almost every day, she made him very comfortable and seemed to truly enjoy having him. We will definitely use her services again and highly recommend her. Thank you Brittany 🐾”
“I hesitate to leave a review, honestly, because I don’t want more people taking up all of Amber’s availability! She really helped me out of a jam—two jams, actually—when she accepted my last-minute booking (like, basically 24 hours notice) when my other sitter canceled for an emergency, AND she VERY generously agreed to watch my dog for an extra night when I was stuck overnight at a the airport. Amber shared daily photos and videos and other updates. She’s both proactive and quickly responsive. Will happily trust her to watch my pup anytime. But for my sake, please just…find someone else 🙏🏻”
“Jessica was amazing. She was very nice and took great care of Daisy. She was great with communicating with us before and during our time away. Daisy was happy and healthy and seemed like she had a great time. We would not hesitate to book with Jessica again in the future.”
“Destiny was fantastic! Communication was great, and we got daily updates/pictures of our dog. We were confident our pup was in great hands while we were away. We will definitely be using her again 😊.”
About: All my life, I have been around dogs. I currently have a sweet boy, Winston, who is a Pit Mix. I’ve had several different dogs over the years and have assisted family and friends with pet care. I also have previous work experience with a pet boarding and grooming facility in Baton Rouge. From having experience in a professional setting and having experience caring for pets at home, I find the at home care to be much more comfortable for the pet- which is why I decided to register here! I love making the pets and their owners feel as comfortable as possible. A personal touch- I like to take funny/cute pictures of what we do and send them to you once I’ve completed the service! I currently have two dogs that I watch for my mother. When I am in town, this looks like walks every afternoon and evening, frequent play time, and feedings. I love to make sure they are happy- whether that’s running around outside, long play time, some chill TLC, or even a few extra treats ;)
“Will & Jillian were great with Rosie and were great about sending pictures and communicating with us while we were away! We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Angela is a supersitter! She was so kind and caring with our dogs and really went the extra mile, throwing frisbee to our Aussie and loving on our cavapoo! She is a genuine animal liver who treats your pets like her own! We will definitely rebook. Thanks, Angela!”
