Dog Walkers in Alnwick, TN

“We needed help after husband's surgery. We booked Kathryn for twice daily walks for a month. Rain or shine, she was always on time, Her love of animals is very evident. Our dog easily went with her each walk. We will miss her and would not hesitate to hire her again.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years, from energetic puppies to giant breeds! I currently have a 4 month old Great Dane named Ozzy, so I’m no stranger to fast-growing pups with big personalities. I also dog-sit regularly for a Great Pyrenees/Border Collie mix, who I’ve cared for since he was a puppy. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I understand the importance of routine, gentle training, and giving each pet the attention and affection they need to feel safe and happy. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just snuggles on the couch, I tailor my care to each dog’s needs. In addition to personal experience, I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter and worked at a kennel, where I handled dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including shy rescues, reactive dogs, and those with medical needs. I’ve supported everything from group playtime and walks to feeding, crate training, medication routines and managing multiple pets at once—including cats, rabbits, and birds! Pet care is a part of my daily life—I build my routine around the animals I care for. As a pet parent myself, I’m used to early morning feedings, regular walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I work from home (or have a flexible schedule), which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention and maintain their usual routines. Whether I’m hosting a dog in my home or visiting pets in theirs, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I’m also used to adjusting my schedule to fit specific feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and medication if needed. Because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s a meaningful and fulfilling part of my day. Safety is my top priority when caring for your pets. Whether it’s making sure gates and doors are securely closed, using proper leash techniques, or keeping harmful items out of reach, I take every precaution to create a secure environment. I’m trained and experienced in recognizing signs of stress or discomfort so I can intervene early and keep your pet calm and safe. Building trust with both pets and their owners is essential. I approach every new animal with patience and respect, allowing them to get comfortable at their own pace. Communication with owners is open and transparent—I provide regular updates, photos, and feedback to ensure you always feel confident and informed about your pet’s care. I strive to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel at home. Whether in your space or mine, I adapt to their routines and preferences, providing consistency that helps reduce anxiety and supports their well-being.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a little kid. I have always had dogs as pets, but in addition coworkers, friends, and family members have trusted me to house sit and walk their dogs. Animals are my passion, and I have always adored getting to take care of them and have some fun along the way! I am a full-time college student, but I have a lot of free time in my afternoons, and when summer break starts, I will be available full time. For now, I am keeping my availability to afternoons on all days of the week for dog-walking and house-sitting. For my pets at home, I have a fenced-in yard for the pups to run around in. I also have crates for when I am away, so I am used to multiple ways of keeping dogs safe and secure in a home. I am adaptable to whatever way my clients may take care of their pets, including, but not limited to feeding times, potty schedules, and use of a crate if needed.

“Thank you for taking my girl for her walk. She appreciates it. And so do I.”

About: My pets are not just my pets...they are my children, and your pet will get the exact same treatment in my home. They will cared for in what they need to live but also in what they need to feel loved. I will make sure your pet feels as comfortable as he/she can while you are away. I go above and beyond for my dog, so yours will get the exact same; i want them to feel like they have a person on their side while their actual person is away. I can simple groom (clip nails, trim paw hair, bathe, etc) if needed. I will also make sure you have a pic/text as an update during the day because I know you will miss them just as much as they miss you!

About: I have experience with caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits, etc. on both a professional and personal level. I can care for many animals at once, since I have worked at an animal shelter and know what it takes. I give animals the love, respect, and attention they deserve. Because animals are so unconditional and loyal to us, I believe we should treat them the same in return. I make sure they are fed well, they get the exercise that fits their needs, they use the bathroom when they need to, but most importantly that they feel safe in my care. I also can handle grooming animals such as, brushing, bathing, cutting toenails, and cutting hair! Your babies are in safe hands with me! I won't do anything you wouldn't do with your pet. Your pet(s) will let you know they had a good time with me when you return home!! I am completely open and flexible, as I devote my time to caring for pets using Rover (along side caring for my pets at home)! Since I do rent, I can’t take in any more animals on top of my own. So whatever your home environment and rules allow, I will follow for you pet(s) care!

“Breana was accommodating and very sweet with my pups!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, I ALWAYS give 110% when taking care of someone’s fur children! Pets are an important part of our lives! I have puppy training experience and love meeting and playing with new puppies! My own dog is diabetic and requires daily injections so I am very comfortable caring for senior and medically complex dogs. Open communication is important to me so we both know what to expect and I love sharing my time with your pets and sending photos so you know how much fun we are having! I have full time availability Monday through Friday and am available on the weekends as needed. I am excited to spend a lot of time throughout the week with pets! My chocolate Labrador retriever Ollie was diabetic. He received 26mL of insulin 2x a day along in the scruff of his neck with his food needing to be watered down due to it being a choking hazard. I would take care of ANY pet like I took care of him. I will stop in to check on your pets, play with them to get their energy out, snuggle with them, and make sure they have everything they need including walks, food, water, treats, play time, and medication.

“Gidget did a great job taking care of my boys. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she provided.”

About: Under 25lbs, lower energy, are my own dog’s preference. I have a special place in my heart for geriatric dogs! Would you like your pet loved and cared for in your own home? Do you have multiple pets that do not travel well? I come to them to provide the excellent care I would expect to be given my own! Lots of love and affection 🥰😍 Lots of love, lap time, off-key singing and sweet words for fur babies. (Don't we all need that?) I’ve loved taking care of dogs and cats (and other critters upon request) for friends and neighbors for many years. Services of walking, drop ins, pet taxi, doggy day care and boarding. Enhanced background check, CPR and Rover 101 class. Senior dogs welcome and respected. I have oral, inhaler and insulin shot med experience. Adept at complicated meds, supplements, and feeding schedules. I supervise yard and play time. I gladly provide pictures and notes as often as you would like! Crate time only if needed when I'm working part time, if it is their "safe space/den", or if your pooch will eat my furniture or chew wires. Part time work close by and full time dog sitting, walking, taxi and drop in visits! Care of your pet whether at your home or mine is my pleasure. I follow your pet’s routine as directed. My first concern is for the safely and well being of your pet. Whether it's walking or just a potty break I am probably overprotective.

About: Taking care of furry friends since childhood—big, small, goofy, or sassy. Expert in pet vibes, belly rubs, snack timing, and tail - wag - worthy walks! I work from home, so I’ve got plenty of time for playtime, fetch, belly rubs, walks, and outdoor adventures. Your pup will never have a dull moment with me! I have a fenced yard, nearly half an acre in size, where my dog enjoys playing fetch. Separate spaces are also available for pets who prefer their own quiet retreat.

About: I routinely dogsit for family and friends and keep up a happy, active lifestyle for my own two senior dogs. We are relaxed with dog etiquette. They may get on our furniture and play/roughhouse inside. We have a weimaraner and a dachshund. The dachshund mostly keeps to himself but will sometimes play with other small dogs. We also have an adult cat. My kids are versed in safety with new animals, but please no dogs who are aggressive with children or other pets - Thanks in advance! Pet sitting is my only job, and my schedule is built around school pick up and drop off. Repeat clients are welcome to request boarding, but I am mostly just doing drop ins at this time. If I am at a clients home, I will be fully engaged with the pets the whole time. Pets at my home are given unlimited access to the backyard unless the client gives other instructions.

About: I have been around pets of all varieties my entire life! Growing up on a farm, I had the unique opportunity to raise puppies and care for a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, kittens, goats, horses, and more. This lifelong exposure has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs. My love and experience in caring for my own furbabies will carry over to the care and attention you expect for your own pets. I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and loving environment for every animal I care for. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a cuddly kitten, I ensure each pet receives personalized care and attention. My farm life background and years of hands-on experience make me adept at handling various situations and ensuring the well-being of all animals under my care. Since I do work from home, I am able to make my own schedule, which means I can take my own pet, as well as yours, for plenty of walks and give them plenty of attention! While I do live in an apartment, we have plenty of space to care for a couple more pets in addition to my small dog. With two dog parks onsite and plenty of open green space, there is ample opportunity to give your pets plenty of exercise and stimulation! I am also happy to follow whatever routine your pet is used to when caring for them in your home. It is important to me to not only give these babies the best experience possible, but also giving you peace of mind that your pets will be cared for in the best way possible.
