House Sitting in Woodland Acres

“We really enjoyed having Abbigail in our home, caring for our babies. She was an excellent communicator and did a great job taking care of our little ones while we were out of town. We will definitely be reaching out to her again for sitting.”

“Erica stayed at our house for 5 days and took great care of our 3 puppies!! It was the first time we left the youngest one but after meeting her we had no reservations. She came to meet them and was an obvious natural with animals and they were at ease right away. Erica sent regular pictures and updates the entire time. She was professional, communicative, and kind. We came home to a clean house and, most importantly, very happy dogs! I highly recommend Erica and will definitely have her come back when we travel next.”

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. From big dogs to small dogs with all types of personalities! I have experience with dogs staying with me, and house/dog sitting for others. My work gives me a lot of flexibility to give them time and attention where they won’t need to be left alone for long periods of time. I work from home so I have no issues with feeding times, potty breaks, or play time. My job isn’t too strenuous so I will never be in a position where I can’t give them the attention they need. I have a good sized yard in a quiet neighborhood for walks. They can hangout on the couch with me, and i let them sleep wherever they’d like, I know each dog has its own personality

About: I’ve owned everything, dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, geckos, fish, etc! I worked at an animal shelter for a year, and currently work full time as an LPN. I love to help weather it be people or pets! I am a full time nurse and work 7a-7p. My weekly schedule is a little odd. One week I only work Wednesday and Thursday, and the following week i’m only off Wednesday and Thursday. I work a 2-2-3 pattern, (2 on - 2 off - 3 on) then the next week (2 off - 2 on - 3 off) I have a decent size fenced in yard with lots of grass to roll in. We have 5 dogs, they have a bedroom upstairs that we keep their kennels. We have a guest room and empty bedroom as well where we can keep animals that maybe aren’t as dog/cat friendly and need their own space. We also have several cats in the house.

About: Hi everyone, I’m Bree! I provide reliable, loving care for dogs/cats in a safe home environment here in Calvert City. Soon to be in Murray as I will be relocating in April 2026! Pet care is my full-time focus, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including energetic puppies and sweet senior pups who may need a little extra patience and care. Whether your dog enjoys running around the yard, going on walks, playing with toys, or just relaxing and getting cuddles, I adjust their routine to match what they’re used to at home so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and right at home. I’m available throughout the week for my services and have a flexible schedule. Pet care is my main focus, so I am able to give dogs plenty of attention, outdoor time, and supervision throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and settled while you’re away. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and enjoy outdoor time. All potty breaks and playtime are supervised, and I carefully monitor interactions to keep everyone safe and comfortable. I always try to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed and at home. My focus is on providing a calm, safe environment where every dog gets plenty of attention and care.

“We were so happy with Katherine “Kat”! She house sat for our 2 basset hounds, Daisy and Elvis, for 5 days (4 nights), and took excellent care of them. It was clear they were well loved and comfortable while we were away. Kat sent several great photos throughout the stay, was very responsive with updates, and treated our home with great respect. We came back to two happy pups and a spotless house. We will absolutely be booking with Kat again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: I will tell you a bit about me and I need to know about your dog as well. Before contacting me about caring for your dog, make sure their profile(s) is completed here on Rover. Upload a picture and submit as much info as you can provide. It helps me determine if your dog is a good fit for what I can provide. About me: Raised in the country surrounded by both family pets and farm animals, caring for critters is second nature to me. I am a doting grandma who lives too far away from my kids to see my grandchildren so I channel that attention toward my Australian Shepherd, Gumbo, and my new puppy, Boo, the Yorki-Poo. After I lost my husband and best friend I found the best way to cope is to help others and keep busy. If I can help you out with your dog or cat while you're away, let me know. I can use the extra income but also I need to feel useful. I keep my fee low. Tips are appreciated. I board at my home in the country near Dukedom, TN. Think of boarding here as bringing your dog to Grandma's house. There will be some spoiling and if pet parents permit, homemade dog cookies! Currently I am home all the time. Your dog will be with me and my dog while here. Gumbo (30 pound neutered male) likes to play fetch or frisbee and we do this daily. I feed my dog early morning (6-7) and early evening (6-7). I give a lot of outside time when weather allows. I give my dog a lot of attention and your dog(s) will get the same. We are a pack and your dog will be part of that pack when he/she stays with us. I live on 6 acres near Dukedom, TN. My large backyard has a chain link fence. If your dog likes to play ball or frisbee this is a great yard to do it in. In addition to the backyard, I have a large field that I keep a path mowed around just for walks but to go there your dog(s) must have excellent recall or be leashed trained very well. I don't want to be pulled around or have to struggle to hold them. Dogs really like going to the field. "No" is the word I use to stop misbehavior. If there is a different word you use, let me know. It is good to know what words/phrases your dog recognizes. It'd be great if you write those down and give it to me. I have carpet throughout my living quarters so PLEASE only housebroken dogs. I give numerous long outdoor time between 5 AM to 9 PM. Potty breaks are every couple of hours. Your pet must be vaccinated! Bordatella vacs are recommended every six-to-twelve months. if your dog frequents places with other dogs, get 6 month vaccine. My dogs are vaccinated. In the warmer months, it is very important that dogs have a flea and tick preventative or have some defense against these nasty bugs because both are out here. I keep grass mowed but they still get on the dogs so make sure they have a preventative. My dogs wear clothing treated with Sawyer flea/tick spray and I have had great success with that method along with a monthly prescribed medicine. Bring your pet's food/bowls/treats along with feeding instructions. Filling out pet profile in depth on Rover helps tremendously! It has an area for vet info and anything I would need to know about your dog can be on their profile! Gumbo has dog toys that he shares but if your dog has a fave, bring it. If your dog must sleep in a bed or crate, bring it. Sometimes a sweater or anything with your scent on it comforts a dog that misses his/her owner. You're welcome to bring that. If he/she has a brush that you want me to use, bring it. I can brush dogs but have no proper facility to bathe. In the summer, I have a small dog pool to cool off in and plenty of shade in the backyard. NO cell service out here so I do not carry my phone with me. I check my messages several times thru the day but I'm not like most that have their phone on them. It does me no good. Many rural people pay for cell service despite not getting it at their homes. I have a landline that works providing my internet service works. If there is anything else you need to know, do not hesitate to ask. I have my profile set to only take in three dogs at a time. I have two so I think five is enough. I am very attentive so rest assured I am keeping a good eye on them.

About: I am a huge animal lover. Your pet will be loved on just like my own. I love pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I believe pets are gods gift to people. I’m available every weekend all weekend and weekday after school and sometimes during. I can bathe, brush, walk, feed, accompany, and do any special requests you want for your pet. You can guarantee your pet will be taken care of like no other. I have taken care of everything from a horse to a guinea pig. I was raised on a small farm with animals of all sizes. I have taken care of and been around animals for over 10 years and still in counting. I assure you that you won’t be disappointed.

“Steve and I, Mary were visiting the area from out of town for a wedding, and Keydan set up a ZOOM call for a meet and greet so we could get acquainted, and she could meet our little dog, Ebony. I chose her because she lived in Hopkinsville KY will be in the area. We told Kaydan we would need her to stay in our hotel at the Holiday Inn and gave her the address. When we needed her Kaydan came promptly and took care of Ebony and we told her to keep Ebony not barking. 6/27/2025 we needed to go to Nashville for the rehearsal dinner and came back to our hotel and walked Kaydan to her car. Kaydan came back 6/28/2025 for the 4:30 wedding. We were home around 9:15 and took her to her car. Kaydan sent us pictures that I appreciated. I was so obvious that Ebony had a good relationship with Ebony and kept he from barking. She took Ebony out to pee or poop. Before we let for the rehearsal dinner, we let the front know about Kaydan to able buy food or drink and bill to our room. Kaydan provided excellent care of Ebony. Kaydan is loving, delightful, thoughtful, kind, caring, compassionate, warm, tender and loves dogs. Thank so much Kaydan for taking such great care of Ebony!”

“Erika took superb care of our elder dog, Allie! Our house was also well taken care of so clean when we got home. I highly recommend Erika to sit for all the pets! We will be contacting Erika again to sit for our girl ❤️”

“Whitney is absolutely amazing!!!!! We had a scheduled sitter before her that was a very bad experience. We were in desperate need of a sitter and even with it being last minute she was able to watch them. She was absolutely wonderful with my dogs and cat! She sent numerous pictures and videos. All my dogs fell in love with her! And it truly gave me hope that I was able to trust someone again with my pets. I want to thank her for her time and the care she gave! We will definitely be using her again.”

About: I was born and raised with St Bernard’s, Irish Setters and miniature poodles as well mutts, ducks, cats, birds etc. I have continued to have pets in my life through my adulthood. The last of my pack of 5 has now past away. I love dogs so much I volunteer in the pet community and have a non profit to help educate, maintain and build off leash dog parks. Responsible pet ownership is very important to me. As someone who had a pack of 5, all sizes, breds and ages and health, understand the need to have someone you trust care for your pet, at least as good as you would!! Rescue, special needs and seniors have a special place in my heart ❤️🐾 I look forward to meeting you and your fur family!! I have a flexible schedule working remotely from my home. I usually know what I have to be in front of the computer for at least a week in advance and work around where I need to be and when. Because I work remotely I am able to stay with your pet. Let’s set up a meet and greet to get to know each other before you need my services. Your fur family is a priority. I love to share time with your family. If they want to play, or snuggle or just know someone is there. I am flexible. I work remotely the majority of the time giving me the opportunity to be with your pets the majority of the time. I also limit the amount of other families I care for at one time, so I can give more of my attention to your family. I follow your rules, or example allowing them or not on furniture, specific snacks, or okay time routines. If you allow I’d love to snuggle with them through the night in bed with me.
