“Shawna took great care of my dog. Very kindhearted and caring for the animals. The communication was excellent between us. She updated me daily with pictures while I was away on my trip. Once I picked him up and got home I noticed how tired my dog was, which let me know that Shawna gave him plenty of exercise throughout the day. I will definitely be using her service again!”
“Lyndsey was amazing with Teddy! We had a death in the family while out of town and she was easy and accommodating to work with. She even sent home some homemade dog treats.”
“Sharon sent us numerous photos of my boys enjoying and exploring her home for a 2 night stay. We were at ease knowing they were in good hands. Thank you so much for caring for Charlie & Jake.”
“Gloria was wonderful! We needed boarding for our 8 year old pup, Barclay, with only a few days notice. Gloria took the time to get to know Barc and treated him like a member of her family. She provided daily pictures and updates; knowing he was safe and truly cared for made it so much easier to focus on travel.”
“Absolutely amazing experience! She accepted our last-minute booking without hesitation and made the entire process stress-free. We got regular updates and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was clearly well cared for, happy, and loved on the whole time. Reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring — we would absolutely book again and highly recommend!”
“Aric did a great job with our 3 yr old Rottweiler. Our dog has never stayed with anyone before and our first experience with a full blown kennel over a year ago was a call to come get your dog after he was there for less than 1 hour. He ended up coming on our trip with us. This time we managed to be away for roughly 5 days and the dog was happy at Arics, happy dog, = happy owners! Will definitely use again!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!”
“Christina was amazing with my 3 pups! She messaged me everyday and sent photos to let me know they were doing good. I was very confident being our of the country knowing my babies were in good hands. Will definitely be booking again through her!!”
About: Surrounding myself around pets has always given me serenity and peace. I worked at a dog resort where I fed, walked, played with, cleaned up after, and even had nap time with many dogs. I have studied dog behavior and group play through lessons given by my employment at the dog resort. I can administer medication and do my absolute best at following any requirements your fur baby needs! I have a friendly mini golden doodl), a playful toy Australian Shepherd, and two sweet cats whom I love to pieces! I also work from home and have a very flexible schedule. If you choose to get your baby taken care of by me, I will treat them like my own ❤️ I work from home and have a flexible schedule so they will have all of my attention! If they want it lol. I can also work around specific times you want your dog to eat, medication administered, etc. I have a fenced yard and two dogs that love to play! I can also provide a safe room and playpen for your dog to be in whenever I’m not home if that’s what they please!
“My Sophie was cared for excellently . I was kept updated on how her visit went daily . Not only will I book withelussa when the need arises , but I will recommend her to anyone needing boarding services ..”
“Tucker enjoyed the other dogs and had a great time at Brittney’s. She sent reports and pictures often and she would be my first choice in the future. Thanks for taking such good care of our little boy.”
“Hannah is a wonderful pet sitter. She and her sweet family took good care of my Dolly doggy. She came home tired, but happy. She will be my first choice for Dolly next time I need her looked after and loved.”
“Alexa did a great job watching my dog for me while I was out of town for my birthday. She sent pictures of her and comforted her during a thunderstorm. Alexa was great communicating on the app and giving updates throughout the week!”
About: Hi! My name is Candice, and I have over 25 years of hands-on animal care experience, along with volunteer experience with an animal rescue organization. Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion, not just a job. I have extensive experience caring for: • Dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments • Horses, cows, pigs, and chickens • Rabbits, hamsters, and gerbils • Birds • Reptiles, including chameleons • Freshwater and saltwater fish My rescue background has given me strong skills working with shy, anxious, senior, and special-needs animals, as well as pets that need extra patience, structure, and reassurance. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has been a consistent part of my life for over 25 years. I structure my schedule to allow dedicated time for walks, drop-ins, feeding routines, playtime, and check-ins so each pet receives attentive, unrushed care. Throughout the week, I prioritize reliability and flexibility to accommodate different pet schedules, whether that means morning walks, midday visits, evening care, or overnight stays. I also build in time for communication and updates so pet parents feel informed and confident while they’re away. Because animal care is something I genuinely enjoy, it’s not something I “fit in” — it’s something I intentionally plan my day around. My care approach is always tailored to each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level. Whether I’m caring for pets in a client’s home or providing drop-ins and walks, I focus on consistency, safety, and creating a calm environment. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, litter or habitat maintenance, exercise, and enrichment. I respect the home as if it were my own and aim to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel secure and stress-free. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident while they’re away. During walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize safety, awareness of surroundings, and positive interaction. Walks are customized to the pet’s energy level, and visits include playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, feeding if needed, and companionship. With over 25 years of experience and animal rescue volunteer work, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all temperaments, as well as small animals, reptiles, and farm animals when needed. My goal is always to provide reliable, compassionate care so pets feel comfortable and loved in their familiar environment.
“Shannon was loving and caring towards our pups. She sent daily pictures and even gathered the babies a bath before we picked them up. So happy with her service and care.”

“You are not likely going to find a more thorough, caring sitter for your pet. Communication was excellent and questions were thoughtful. Iris made being away from our pet a stress free experience.”
“Stephanie is THE best sitter I have ever had, period. The number of ways she went above and beyond when watching our three kitties when out of the country for 18 days was incredible. She sent tons of pictures and gave updates frequently on how the cats were doing and was willing to deal with one of our cats who needed oral pills in the morning (and can be quite difficult!) I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“I can't say enough good stuff about Cheyenne! You should know that I have never trusted many people with my animals, but Cheyenne earned my trust and kept it. Anyone who knows me knows what a huge compliment that is. After another sitter flaked out on us, she came to the rescue at the very last minute. She is always on time, communicates well, kind, caring, and went way beyond to make sure not just the animals were happy... but us too. We put extra on her and she willingly went even further. I hope she is still doing this when we go on our next trip! Again, she is great. Great customer service, very professional, and great with animals. :) Cheyenne, I'm sorry I didn't share the YouTube videos for the parrots sooner. If I had known it would make yall instant friends, I would have. Lol”

I have a fenced in yard that wraps around my whole house, and also send pics throughout the day how they are doing. They have plenty of room to play as well.
“When we returned from our recent getaway, both of our kitty cats were calm and relaxed. That tells me just how good Jay took care of them!! Jay is great and his love for animals clearly shows. I fully trust him and know that all will be well while we are away. Thank you Jay!”

About: I am currently pursuing my X-ray tech degree, and while in school, I work at a local bakery that offers me the flexibility to help care for your pets. I recently transitioned from the veterinary field, where I gained extensive experience handling medical needs for animals. With years of hands-on care for dogs, cats, and even horses, I’ve worked with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I’m passionate about providing reliable, loving, and knowledgeable care, ensuring every pet gets the attention they deserve. I am currently working full time at a local bakery while pursuing my X-ray tech degree, with most of my classes online. I’m looking for a part-time job on my days off. My schedule can vary, but I typically know my availability about two weeks in advance. Having recently left the veterinary field, I bring years of hands-on experience and a strong medical background. I’m committed to making your time away less stressful by providing attentive care along with daily photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone. I take pleasure in creating enrichment activities that suit each pet’s energy and interest. This could mean trips to the dog park, going for walks, engaging in a training session, or using treat-dispensing puzzles to keep their minds active and entertained.
“Showed up and did everything, very respectful of my space and my pets. It’s always a stress wondering if someone will be reliable especially with your pets while you’re on vacation. I’m very pleased and would definitely recommend to anyone in need of pet sitting.”
“Kaley was amazing with my dogs! Paisley is normally a very scared/anxious little dog and Kaley put her right at ease. I received many pictures and the dogs looked very happy and content in them. I would definitely use her again in the future!”
“Wendy is such a gem! She was reliable, thoughtful, and very responsive. The kitty she cared for earns his name "Spooky" because he is easily spooked. Within a few days, however, he was showing up for attention and petting. We got pictures every day and are so pleased that we could be away without worries.”
“Katherine, Cared for our cat exceptionally well. She went above and beyond with keeping her fed and watered (our sassafras cat-who runs the house) is very picky). She updated us after every visit, I would recommend her and will absolutely rebook with Katherine!”
“Delaney, you were amazing!! Harold is shy and actually came up to you and you got great photos! Which says a lot about your warm energy:) Thank you again! I will definefitely request you in the future:) Lori”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. My mom worked in different animal shelters and boarding facilities my whole childhood, I always loved going to work with her when I could. We often fostered dogs and cats taking care of them until they found their forever home. I have watched my friend’s and family’s pets for them often as an adult. I am new to Rover, but I am excited to help out people in my community and confident that I will have plenty of positive reviews in no time.
About: I understand that cats thrive on routine, comfort, and a calm environment. I take the time to get to know each cat’s unique personality and preferences, whether they love attention and playtime or prefer their own space. I provide attentive care, fresh food and water, litter box maintenance, and plenty of affection on their terms. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands.

“My dog ran back and gave Kallie two good-byes before coming to me to go home, which was a great sign to me that he really loved her and trusted her. She is very good with my golden retriever and has a nice home and fenced yard for him. I am so happy I found her.”
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: I have experience with pets of all ages, including energetic puppies who need consistency, basic training reinforcement, and lots of playtime, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication, or extra care and comfort. I’m very attentive to routines and will stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule to help reduce stress. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being outside and spending time with animals. I enjoy going on walks, playing outside, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed by giving them lots of love, supervision, and a calm environment. I enjoy being outside, so walks and outdoor play are something I really enjoy doing with dogs.

“Savannah was amazing, seriously. She made time for my pup on Mother’s Day so we could have a get away for a couple hours! If you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur babies, I would definitely book with her. Probably the plus 1 of the stay was the fenced in yard, so they are able to just run and potty freely without having to be leaded.”
“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 am a Veterinary Technician who is currently waiting to take his national certification exam to work in the state of Tennessee. I have been working in doggy daycares and vet clinics for the last eight (8) years and have loved every minute of it. I recently moved to Tennessee from the Pacific Northwest and would like to continue to care for pets even though I’m not in a clinic yet. Even when I return to clinics I still plan to keep doing walks and home visits if for no better reason than to get out of my house everyday. I am currently unemployed and looking to start making money again and the best way to do so is on my own terms. I am free every day except for Sundays to do walks, house visits, or even house sit if needed. In my clients homes I make sure to follow all instructions given for pet care. I have a great deal of experience working with pets that need medications and special care after working in an Emergency Clinic, and I do my best to clean up and leave the home in the same state I received it.
“10/10 would recommend Lindsey. My family is going through a major medical emergency, and knowing Lindsey is taking care of my fur babies is a huge weight off my shoulders. I never have to worry, and get the cutest picture updates. For the longest time my husband and I were hesitant to get a pet sitter for our 5 animals, but Lindsey completely changed our opinion. From the first meet and greet our animals loved her. If you’re looking for someone living and reliable, hire Lindsey.”

“Shawna took great care of my dog. Very kindhearted and caring for the animals. The communication was excellent between us. She updated me daily with pictures while I was away on my trip. Once I picked him up and got home I noticed how tired my dog was, which let me know that Shawna gave him plenty of exercise throughout the day. I will definitely be using her service again!”

She provided daily pictures and updates; knowing he was safe and truly cared for made it so much easier to focus on travel.”
“Absolutely amazing experience! She accepted our last-minute booking without hesitation and made the entire process stress-free. We got regular updates and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was clearly well cared for, happy, and loved on the whole time. Reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring — we would absolutely book again and highly recommend!”
“Aric did a great job with our 3 yr old Rottweiler. Our dog has never stayed with anyone before and our first experience with a full blown kennel over a year ago was a call to come get your dog after he was there for less than 1 hour. He ended up coming on our trip with us. This time we managed to be away for roughly 5 days and the dog was happy at Arics, happy dog, = happy owners! Will definitely use again!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better place to board our dog! DeRee and her husband took great care of Apollo and sent us updates daily. On top of all that they took him in on very short notice, so we’re extremely grateful for that as well. Will use again!”

About: Hi! My name is Candice, and I have over 25 years of hands-on animal care experience, along with volunteer experience with an animal rescue organization. Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion, not just a job. I have extensive experience caring for: • Dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments • Horses, cows, pigs, and chickens • Rabbits, hamsters, and gerbils • Birds • Reptiles, including chameleons • Freshwater and saltwater fish My rescue background has given me strong skills working with shy, anxious, senior, and special-needs animals, as well as pets that need extra patience, structure, and reassurance.

I structure my schedule to allow dedicated time for walks, drop-ins, feeding routines, playtime, and check-ins so each pet receives attentive, unrushed care. Throughout the week, I prioritize reliability and flexibility to accommodate different pet schedules, whether that means morning walks, midday visits, evening care, or overnight stays. I also build in time for communication and updates so pet parents feel informed and confident while they’re away. Because animal care is something I genuinely enjoy, it’s not something I “fit in” — it’s something I intentionally plan my day around. My care approach is always tailored to each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level.

I respect the home as if it were my own and aim to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel secure and stress-free. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident while they’re away. During walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize safety, awareness of surroundings, and positive interaction. Walks are customized to the pet’s energy level, and visits include playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, feeding if needed, and companionship. With over 25 years of experience and animal rescue volunteer work, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all temperaments, as well as small animals, reptiles, and farm animals when needed. My goal is always to provide reliable, compassionate care so pets feel comfortable and loved in their familiar environment.
