Dog Walking Arrowhead

About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.

About: Hi! I’m Susan. I’m a graduate student at UT hoping to make a little extra money on the side. I love love doggos, treating them like humans. I've had a dog the majority of my life, starting with a Visla, mixed breed bulldog, and a black labrador retriever in our house when I was a child. I have owned two mixed american staffordshire terriers and a golden retriever myself. I've cared for them as puppies, through life, surgeries, and health, and at the end of life. I am gentle and let dogs interact with me on their terms. I am open to caring for all types of dogs. I would love to take care of your pups. I am a graduate student at the University of Tennessee, so my schedule is very flexible. I also don't get a lot of vacation time, so I'm usually in Knoxville. I can care for pets throughout the day, doing my lab work intermittently. I treat my client's home and pets with the utmost respect. I am there to do the job for which you hired me and nothing else, and you can count on me for it.

About: Howdie! I’m so glad you’re here! I’d love to take your dog on a walk or check on your dog (or cat) in your home. Frankly I’m trying to get into better shape, so taking your dog on a walk is good exercise for me! Haha I’ve always grown up around animals, and currently have a cat and dog of my own, so I’d be perfect for your needs. Let me know if I can help! I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I am able to fit in walks or drop ins throughout my day. I am pretty open most days or can rearrange my schedule to meet needs I will be careful to respect your home/property when I am visiting to care for your pet. When walking dogs I make sure they are properly attached to a leash prior to leaving and prior to leaving your home I will make sure your pet is in good shape and the home is how I found it

About: I’ve always LOVED animals of any kind. (Used to want to be a vet but realized it was too hard to see animals in distress). We’ve had dogs and cats in our home since I was a little girl. I’ve had over 10 years of experience taking care of dogs, cats, and other small pets for friends, family, and neighbors! I have a sweet spot for animals and would do my upmost best to ensure your baby is taken care of to the best of my abilities. I will treat your pet with the same care I would my own. My personality is this: patient, calm, gentle, and detail oriented. I also believe heavily in communication and will always appreciate a pet owner who also likes communication. Communication is very important to me because I want to make sure I can do my job to the best of my abilities. I currently have my own 1 year old terrier and have done everything from potty training, crate training and obedience training. I want all of my customers to rest assured their fur babies will get the attention and care they deserve. My schedule is very flexible so I can make the time to take care of your pets! I work throughout the week including some weekends and can take your pet out as frequently as they need. Just reach out and let me know what you’re looking for. I have a fenced in yard outside, suited for small to medium dogs. I also live in a house in a neighborhood that is suitable for walking your pet if you would like. I also make sure that my home is free of any dangers or anything toxic to any pets. I raised both puppies and kittens and know how to properly ensure animals are taken care of appropriately.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for practically my entire life. My household has reached its limit on pets but I would love to care and help out any pets I can. I’ve fostered with Young Williams many times. I love dogs of any ages! I’m currently stay at home and so I can give my full attention to any pets in my home! My own dogs are good companions and love friends I have a fenced in backyard and two dogs of my own, as well as a separate bedroom for any dogs in need of their own space. My dogs are crate trained and can be put away at any time to make another pup feel welcome and calmed! Routine is big in this house and always makes the animals feel better.

“We absolutely love Nicole! From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease—she instantly earned our trust. She’s kind, communicates clearly and reliably, and clearly cares deeply about the dogs she works with. We couldn’t ask for a better dog walker!”

“Brooke has been amazing with taking my dog on walks to make sure he gets exercise while I have to be gone. She is also quick to respond and very professional! Highly recommend!”

I am an animal lover and have cared for all types with all different personalities, I understand that each pet is different and each require special attention. If there’s a potty accident, I will clean it up! If I notice strange behaviors I will notify you and/or your vet immediately! I am flexible with scheduling and can make the time to come meet you before you leave me with your fur baby, just to make certain you and the fur baby are comfortable with me! Excellent customer service will be given, I stand by this :) Thank you and I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! My schedule is flexible. My office is only 20 mins away from my house and I am in and out of there on a daily I have a cat who is very friendly and loving. He will hide until he feels comfortable lol. Also have baby gates to block off areas if needed I currently work full time usually from 9 - 6 Monday through Friday. However, I am a manger at my office and have flexibility to work from home, or go in and out if needed I have a small fenced yard. Typically I allow free roam of my house, however if crating is necessary that is not a problem. My neighborhood has a leash law, so walks around are very safe.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 10 and have also had pets since I was born! I love all dogs no matter the breed, size, or age! I have two dogs of my own, so caring for pets is already a big part of my everyday routine! I’m used to making time for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I have two friendly dogs at home who love having company! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. I enjoy taking my dogs on walks, playing outside, and giving them plenty of attention and cuddles.

About: I have professional pet-sitting experience with dogs of different breeds, temperaments, socialization, and behavior. I have worked with puppies, senior dogs, and all in between! At this time, my schedule is mostly open and I am accepting new clients. I am available during the week and weekends as well. Let me know if you have any questions! I have 2 dogs myself, a pit mix and beagle. They are truly the beat companions. I can do drop-in visits, doggy daycare (can be customized to your dog’s needs / wants), overnight boarding in our home, and dog walks!

“Rianne comes and walks my pup during the day and he absolutely loves her. She does a fantastic job of caring for him and making sure he gets a good walk in every day.”

About: Hi there! I’m Ansley. I live in South Knoxville and work in animal science. I have over 10 years of experience caring for other people’s animals, and nearly 22 years of caring for my own pets. I worked in both small and large animal vet clinics as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable giving medications and treating ill or elderly pets. I have two Labrador retrievers (6 years old and 6 months old) and a Manx cat that needs extra attention due to some health issues. I’m a very active person and frequently walk or run with my own dogs, so if you’re just looked for the occasional walk to get your pup’s energy out, I’m your gal! I also have a fenced in backyard so if you’re interested in a play date, message me and we can work something out! My boys love new friends. Unfortunately, my cat does not do well with other cats, but he LOVES dogs. He was a rescue as a kitten from the clinic I worked in, so he grew up around the dog boarding kennels and 100% thinks he’s one of them. I know Rover is for dogs and cats, but if you or anyone you know is looking for assistance with farm animals, I can help there too. I currently work in the dairy industry but have experience caring for all livestock species. I have BSA and MS degrees in Animal and Dairy Science. I’m available mostly during weekends and evenings during the week however my job is flexible and I can do drop in visits during my lunch, as well as on my way to work in the mornings. I’m happy to provide drop in visits and walks in client’s homes. As mentioned previously, I do have animals of my own and would be open to bringing a dog to my house if they are friendly and play well with others. I have a fenced in backyard that my dogs love. I cannot bring other cats into my house due to my own cat’s distaste for others, but he is fine with dogs.

About: As a dedicated animal lover, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I provide plenty of attention, cuddles, exercise, and play throughout the day. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and secure while giving you peace of mind through regular updates and photos. My schedule allows me plenty of time to provide attentive, personalized care for your pets. I am fully available Monday through Friday for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and pet sitting. I can sit for your pets up to 7 days a week if needed. I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, feeding, and affection they need. I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I follow each pet’s regular feeding, potty, and sleep schedule to help them feel comfortable and at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routine and ensure their pets receive consistent care in a familiar environment. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, medication administration if needed, and plenty of companionship. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. I am also a future vet, so your babies are in great hands 🙂

About: Outdoor enthusiast, runner, & a big fan of dogs. I’ve taken care of pets since before I can remember. I just adopted a new puppy a year and a half ago and was refreshed on what they need in their younger years. Would love to meet more furry buddies & can’t wait to love yours! I am currently taking a work hiatus the next few months, so I’m as free as a bird to spend the most time with your pups! Happy to keep pets in their safest environments, ie fenced yard or crate. If you want them out and about, I am extremely cognizant of reactive dogs and will be happy to take them for nice long walks :)

“Sarah really took her time to let our dogs warm up to her, that took a while, and then she even completed the entire walk time after that. She was very communicative & committed. Thank you Sarah!”

About: Since I was a teen, I've always been the go-to person asked to pet sit for people when they went on vacation. I've done it for 10+ years. I recently graduated from law school in May, and I am currently studying for the BAR. I would love to make some money on the side, caring for your special guys and girls! Currently, I have full availability because my sole focus is studying for the BAR. So I can make myself available at any time day or night! I love animals, and I recognize how much they crave attention, especially when they're missing their owner. I would love to provide that necessary attention in your absence. I will make sure that your place is the same as it was when I got there. With a fresh litter box cleaning for cats.

About: I am 31 and I have worked in retail at a pet store and doggy daycare for the past two years. I previously worked at another dog kennel, where I would take care of dogs in the best way possible! I walk, exercise, feed, medicate, clean, and occasionally bathe dogs! I love my job and I have experienced different breeds and all personality types. I have dealt with senior dogs who must be medicate at certain times, to the smallest puppy who must eat at certain times. I am reliable, responsible, and will care for your fur baby like my very own! I will say I am NOT good with plants, sadly. Not sure why. I water them and let them get sun but they still die. I killed my cactus in about 3 days 😐 If you have plants to care for I will water them and make sure they get enough sunlight, but that hasn't worked so far, but I will do my best! I have certian availability and reliable transportation, as well as a love and passion for animal care. I am willing to travel to meet you and your fur baby. I follow your exact instructions when it comes to the care and needs of your pets. When it comes to your pet's safety, I work diligently to protect your fur baby and keep you at piece of mind!
