“Shawna is amazing. She has a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces, took my dog on daily walks on a beautiful trail, and let my dog find her happy place at all times throughout the day and night. She loves animals, knows how to serve their needs, and brought us relief that all was going well by sending us updates with photos and videos. We will be using Shawna again without a doubt. Thank you so much Shawna!”

“Brooke and her family are excellent caregivers for our dog. They love him and treat him as their own. He’s very anxious and it is so nice knowing he will be well loved when we are away!”

“Wow! ……where to start? This was my first time using Rover in the TN area and she has def set the bar high here. Angela is incredibly responsive to any and all inquiries and was wonderful at sending daily updates with pictures of my baby girl. Athena looked so happy with her own little bed fixed up when I left, but more importantly, she was happy when I came to pick her up! It was easy to see she enjoyed her time there. Can’t say enough about her flexibility of schedule. You can’t go wrong if you are looking for someone to treat your babies like their own. Have already booked a return visit 😊”

“Elizabeth took good care of my dog while we were on vacation. We felt comfortable leaving her with Elizabeth after a meet and greet with her pups! I recommend Elizabeth for your pet needs.”

“Miss Shirley was a perfect fit for my dog, she took excellent care of her, kept me updated with pictures and texts, and my dog seemed to like her very much, which is comforting to see. Definitely recommend and will for sure book again in the future. Thank you for being great at what you do.”

“Shawna was so great with Moose! She was very communicative and sent plenty of photos while I was away. Additionally, she worked to introduce each pup one on one since we weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand. She was very attentive and Moose had such a great time playing with his new friends! I’d absolutely recommend Shawna to anyone!”

“I wish I could give a 10 star! I am a helicopter dog parent. I will. Happily admit, I've left my dog with another lady who used to work with Rover who was excellent but I can say this without a doubt. My dog has never came home. So happy and energized realizing he had fun. He was exercised. He was spoiled with Amanda just like he is with me and that does my heart good. Amanda is my go-to regardless of the need. Thank you, Amanda!”


“Kat was more than amazing! We left our pup with her for 10 days and she not only took amazing care but also documented all of her food intake and stool health. Constantly took pictures! I’m sure this will not be the last time we leave our pup with Kat. We couldn’t have chosen a better sitter!”

“Brittnay and her family took great care of our senior dog. They made him feel right at home. She sent pictures throughout the day, which was an added bonus. I would not hesitate to use her again.”

“Wendy and her family were absolutely AMAZING taking care of our cat while we were out of town for the holidays. She helped my cat become comfortable and feel right at home. I will most definitely have her pet sit for us again. Thank you so much!”

My dogs have been trained to stay in the yard. I have 3 dogs, they are younger and very playful. I also have 3 cats.

I have a whole room dedicated for the animals where they can stay unless they are kept uncaged then they can have free roam of the house.

About: As a cat mom of four, I’ve learned firsthand how different every cat can be — from shy and independent to playful and attention‑seeking. I handle daily care like feeding, litter box maintenance, enrichment, and keeping routines consistent.

Whether your cat needs quiet companionship or active engagement, I know how to meet their needs and help them feel secure while you’re away.

About: I have been a pet lover most of my life! I have a very friendly beagle that would love to meet your dog! So would I! I do require all dogs that stay with me to come for a meet and greet, so that we can all get to know each other before their stay. Any dogs that stay for more than 3 days are required to do a mandatory paid overnight stay to make sure everyone gets along.

We would definitely book with Wendy again. Thank you, Wendy, for giving us peace of mind and for giving our dog such a happy, loving place to spend the day.”

“I am a first time Rover user and my Chloe stayed with Shirley and Jeff all day yesterday to get acquainted with them and their home. All I can say is when I came to pick her up, she was relaxed, happy and didn't really care that I was there. You don't know how happy this made me. Thank you Shirley and Jeff for treating Chloe like your own. She'll be back for more love..... Donna & Guy”

About: I’ve never gone a day in my life without a dog, and they’ve always been family — never just animals in the house. That same love and respect is what I bring to every pet I care for. With two years of experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m comfortable walking, feeding, playing, and giving oral or topical medications. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality so they feel safe, understood, and truly cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep routines consistent. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions to ensure safety at all times. I take time to make pets feel comfortable and calm in their own environment, keeping things clean and organized before I leave. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

About: I’ve cared for animals for as long as I can remember, and I knew early on that working with them was where I belonged. Over the years I’ve gained hands‑on experience with pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable with bathing, feeding, walking, cleaning, and providing general care to keep animals happy, healthy, and relaxed. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something that’s been a natural part of my life since childhood. ⭐ Special Skills • Medication trained and comfortable administering oral and topical treatments • Experienced with bathing, feeding, and maintaining consistent care routines • Skilled in cleaning, sanitation, and keeping pet areas safe and tidy • Strong leash‑handling experience with dogs of all sizes • Familiar with animal behavior, body language, and stress signals • Comfortable caring for high‑energy, large‑breed, and small‑breed pets • Kennel‑experienced with structured routines and caring for multiple animals at once I’m an online full‑time college student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time at home. Because I study remotely, I’m able to build my day around pet care — feeding, walks, drop‑ins, playtime, and keeping pets comfortable. Caring for animals is already part of my daily rhythm, and my online schedule makes it easy for me to be consistently available and attentive. While I don’t offer boarding, my home environment is fully set up for cats and reflects the way I care for my own four. My apartment is every cat’s dream with toys, towers, enrichment activities, and plenty of stimulation. This experience helps me understand what keeps cats comfortable, engaged, and stress‑free.

I handle feeding, litter or potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any cleaning needed to keep their space tidy. I pay attention to body language, comfort levels, and any changes in behavior.

“Allyson was great. She sent loads of pictures of our elderly dog. She obviously had no trouble helping him up and down the ramp, and helping him get up from laying down. He's an old dog (age 17) so needed a little assistance and she was willing and able to do so. She judged what he could handle, as it was warm and he is an old husky, kept in good contact with us during her visits.”
