“Sheila was amazing on short notice. Her years of experience showed as she noticed my puppy Bia having some issues that should be addressed by a vet. She went above and beyond getting Bia checked out by our vet and administrating her meds to make her healthy again. Can't recommend Sheila enough.”


“Rachel was the best house sitter we've had from Rover so far, and that's saying a lot, because we've had many good and a couple great sitters. Her response time and demeanor were fantastic. She did an additional meet and greet for our German Shepherd to become familiar with her. She was flexible for our meeting times and prompt for all our appointments. For the actual sitting, she gave us a heads up on her availability. Also, we had a long list of requests that she was able to accommodate, including care for our garden. She sent plenty of photos and updates of our animals both having fun and relaxing. We couldn't ask for more.”


“So appreciative of not only the care that Blair showed our pups while away but also our home! Great communication and updates all along the way as well. Thank you Blair!”


“Sean took wonderful care of my dog, Stassi, and my home! I was out of the country for 3 weeks and he stayed at my home the whole time. He was very thorough in gathering information about my home and Stassi before I left and asked questions I didn't even think of. His communication was professional and consistent. He sent me messages regularly about what was going on at home and with Stassi and even sent several pictures. My home was clean and as I left it. Most importantly he cared for Stassi as his own. I couldn't ask for a better dog sitter! Thank you Sean!”


About: When i start college in January, i plan to take agriculture and own a ranch/farm rescue for dogs and any animals in need. Animals are my best friend and i couldn’t ever imagine being without them. I’ve taken care of 10 dogs most of my life. My parents love animals so i’ve always been around different kind of animals. They currently have 3 bunnies, guinea pigs, 10 cocker spaniels and 1 lab, and 2 cats. When they are away i am the main person to take care of them since they also foster and i’m the oldest kid in the family. I know how to care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments and personalities. I also am experienced in special needs dogs, my parents have a cocker spaniel who has special needs and he’s the sweetest dog i’ve ever met. Me and my girlfriend do this together and she is an amazing help, she’s cared for many animals like horses, dogs, cats, and fish. she’s like an animal whisperer.. she always knows what the animal wants and needs and always tends to them. she especially knows how to make dogs feel at home. ❤️🔥🐾 I had a senior dog , izzy who had cancer and i did my best to make her feel cared for through the time she had left. I really take my time caring for dogs with special needs and who are older, they need fun and love. 🐾 What i offer : • Boarding (Overnight stays) • At your home doggie sitting • Day care • Walking • Drop in visits • Clean, and spacious home • Structured play time, nap time and lovin time • Fully fenced in yard for supervised outdoor play and potty time • A calm living space where pups are free to play and relax • Lots of squeaky toys and stuffed animals 🦴🧸 • Doggie pool for the hot summer days 💦 • 2 walks a day 🐕 if they need more we are happy to provide more walks :) I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new. That’s why i am firm on communication. I’ll send you updates, videos and pictures so you can see how much fun their having and be comfortable having them in my hands :) I am home most of the day, there may be a time where i have to run to do an errand like grocery shopping etc. My girlfriend is home all the time so she will be home to take care of your pups. Their safety and well being always comes first 🐶 Im 18 and work from home with my girlfriend. We are available 7 days a week. I have a fully fenced in yard so your pup can play outside and be safe. My home is tidy, and very clean. We make sure everything is put away. We know how it is to have a pup that likes to put everything in their mouth so we make sure to vacuum and mop. I live in a quiet little neighborhood. My house is a very spacious 4,000 square foot home and it was a church before it was turned into a house so it’s very unique. I have a cocker spaniel and a brittany mix, they are both very sweet and love new company. My brittany is 15 so he kinda just lays around but my cocker spaniel is 3 so she loveeesss to play.

“Brittany was fantastic! She stayed 3 nights to watch our dog and cat and we came home to very happy fur babies. She kept us updated the entire time and sent lots of pics. Even did some light cleaning! We were very happy and relaxed being away.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. We had 2 dogs and 4 cats growing up. I watched my family’s pets when they needed. I watched 2 litters of puppies for my family every time they were away. I’m currently a stay-at-home momma and have plenty of time to spend with pets! I love spending time out of the house in nature and love animals, and would love to do both! I can feed/take out and play with your fur babies. If you need someone to watch them while you’re out of town I’m more than happy to and can clean or any small tasks you need while out of town. Anything you need!

“Katherine did a great job housesitting with my dog and cat for a week. They were comfortable with her and well cared for. She also was patient in dealing with a garage door issue that started happening the night before I went away. Thank you!”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs and animals my entire life! All of my dogs have been raised by me since birth, and I easily fall for puppy dog eyes I’m currently a college student back home for summer break with a ton of extra time! I’m looking to keep my schedule busy helping others around and near me. I treat any animal I see or visit as if they were my own!! I have so much love for every fur baby out there.

“We will always book Matt as our pet sitter in the future—he is truly a gem! We have a senior dog who is typically very wary of strangers, and Matt went above and beyond to ensure she felt comfortable. He took the time to do a meet-and-greet with all of our pets before the booked stay, which immediately put us at ease. By the time his stay started, it was like he was already part of the family. Throughout his time with our pets, Matt showed incredible care and attention to detail. He followed every instruction to a T, ensuring our senior dog got her medications on time and tailoring his approach to her specific needs. His calm and patient demeanor worked wonders, and it was clear she trusted him completely—a rare and heartwarming sight for us! Matt didn’t just care for the pets; he also left the house spotless. Coming home to a clean home and happy, relaxed pets was such a relief. His thoughtful updates, including photos and notes, were icing on the cake and let us truly enjoy our time away without worrying. If you’re looking for someone who is not only professional and trustworthy but also truly compassionate and attentive, Matt is the one to book. We can’t thank him enough and look forward to having him care for our pets again!””


About: I have taken care of multiple different types of animals in my life. I grew up with ferrets, dogs and cats. I am willing to administer medication, and provide special care to those who need it! I am very dedicated and animals are my passion! I am currently working part-time and go to college classes. For the most part I am flexible and can move my schedule around as needed! Safety is my number one priority for you and your pet. I am happy to do any extra tasks while I am with your pet, please feel free to let me know!

About: I’ve been babysitting childrenfor the past 5 years, as well as taking care of pets overnight and never had an unhappy client. I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and have trained every pet in my home! I’m currently a pre-med psychology student at Belmont, so weekends and any evening after 3 I am available to come walk your pups! I am also available on the mornings of Tuesday and Thursday until 1:30 :) I have experience with crating puppies, as well as being able to move bigger, older dogs. I have tons of energy so walking will never be an issue! My car is dog friendly if needed, and I have endless patience with animals- your puppies will be treated like part of my family :)

About: 1. DOGS (15+ years) 2. CATS (15+ years) 3. MEDICATIONS 4. CANINE BASIC OBEDIENCE TRAINING Your animal's wellbeing... be a working animal or a family pet... ALWAYS comes first... EVERY TIME... They are all treated with the same level of care and respect that I treat my own. When you're gone... they become a member of MY pack... and they are treated as such. First... don't be afraid to ask questions. I'm easy going, laid back, friendly and approachable. If you have a question... just ask... Second... Pet care IS my life... it's what I enjoy doing and it's what I'm good at. I try to circulate my "rounds" to make sure animals... especially dogs... are let out every 6-8 hours. Puppies and senior are visited more frequently. I specialize in KENNEL management... feel free to reach out for specific rates. I do also offer basic CANINE Grooming services: Bath - Small Breeds ($25) Medium Breeds ($30) Large Breeds ($35) Extra Large Breeds ($40) DeShed - Small Breeds ($25) Medium Breeds ($30) Large Breeds ($35) Extra Large Breeds ($40) Nails - All Breeds ($15) Full Basic Groom Package (Full DeShed Protocol, Bath, and Nails) - Small Breeds ($40) Medium Breeds ($50) Large Breeds ($60) Extra Large Breeds ($70) Small Breeds (<20 lbs) Medium Breeds (20-50 lbs) Large Breeds (50-80 lbs) Extra Large Breeds (>80 lbs) I provide all my own product and equipment... all I need is your tub or shower... preferably with a removable shower head. (Note: I leave very little footprint wherever I am, regardless of time, place, season, or circumstance... the utmost care will be taken in all areas of the home... Your home is treated with the same level of dignity, cleanliness, care, and respect as I do my own). Independent grooming appointments can be arranged with advanced notice. Any special instructions must be discussed in advance and may be subject to additional charges. I specialize in IN-HOME pet care. I feel like this is the best option because it's always hard on pets to be separated from their families and IN-HOME pet care will minimize and limit stressors on your pet... such as removal from their home... strange surroundings... unknown smells... animals they don't know. IN-HOME pet care allows your pet to stay in their own home... their own space... surrounded by what is familiar and comforting to them. I have just found that pets are happier this way. It gives them the much needed reassurance that their family is coming back for them.

“Great sitter. Everything was perfect and Major was happy.”


Olivia A.
“I highly recommend Olivia as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Having grown up with a variety of pets—cats, dogs, ferrets, gerbils, and more—Olivia has always had a natural affinity for animals of all shapes and sizes. She's taken care of my pets on numerous occasions, always showing them love and attention. I’ve been impressed by how she documents her time with them on social media, whether they’re playing fetch, cuddling, or learning new commands like sit and heel. Olivia’s dedication and care are evident in everything she does, making her a fantastic choice for anyone in need of pet sitting, walking, or home tending services. Just a heads up, she’s not a fan of spiders—so perhaps someone else for that job!”


Lexy B.
“Lexy would be a blessing to any pets life. She’s very responsible and caring. And she loves all pets with her whole heart. When she was younger she loved to train her dogs to do tricks but with her being fluent in ASL she would also teach them in sign language. She’s always impressed me with how quickly pets warm up to her and how quickly she understands each different pet’s personality. She’s had many different pets and has house sat many different pets from snakes, fish, dogs, cats, chickens, goats, leopard geckos, bearded dragons to fair show rabbits. And she loves them all like they are her own. I highly recommend her for caring for any and all pets.”


Jamie G.
“Jamie is very skilled with dogs. She has managed my group of show dogs beautifully. She even did training on some of them. Jamie also handles dogs for showing, maintains her own dogs and has experience with cats. She is competent, reliable and efficient.”
