Alexis was prompt and attentive during her visits. Her communication with us is great and she has gone above and beyond to take care of Ranger. She knows how to handle dogs and has done really well with ours! We will definitely request her again.

About: I was raised arounds all kinds of animals since I can remember. I love indoor and outdoor pets just the same! I’ve dog sat and house sat many times for friends, families, and strangers who have all asked me to come back because of my low rates, flexibility, and playful attitude. I love caring and loving on animals, walking dogs, and giving them the best care possible, no matter ages and sizes. I am available for walks and drop-ins as early as 6am through until the evenings. My weekends are usually flexible, so let’s talk about it! I would be so excited to have an opportunity to love and care for your dog(s) and/or cat(s)! I am a nanny in Cookeville, I am free for drop ins and walks M-F before 8am and after 1:30! Weekends are flexible, so just check with me. Sometimes I can be wherever I am needed within a couple of hours. I treat each pet with the care I would if they were my own. I can respond to a number of needs. I can bring them to a park to run if they are active. Or I can let them out at home in their own space.

Austin was a life saver for us and our new adopted pup. Austin is responsive, professional, and really good with our dog. He gives him treats and belly rubs after his walk, uploads pictures, and even offered to work with him on some commands we’ve been working with him on. Highly recommend Austin.

About: I’ve grown up around multiple animals, having dogs and cats and other exotic animals. I also used to watch neighbor’s pets if they needed me to. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I am a college student who is always on the move and looking for new adventures to go on! I do not offer pet sitting in my own home due to living in an apartment with roommates, but depending on your living situation I always make it fun for the animal wether that’s playing outside or going on a walk.

About: Growing up my family always had at least one dog. We had all different breeds, both large and small. So whatever breed your sweet pup is, I’m happy to watch them. Right now I’m working 8-4 and attending school three nights a week in Nashville. I have an hour lunch which allows me to go home everyday for potty breaks and play time at noon! My partner is also at the house most days after he gets home from work around 9am. Every dog we’ve watched absolutely adores him! I live in a duplex that has a decent sized front and side yard - so we can play fetch whenever we’re not able to make it to the dog park.
