“Alexa was great! She was super communicative and showed up on time every single day for a month to walk our two dogs while we were settling into a new house. She got them plenty of exercise each day, gave updates on how they did on each walk, adjusted walk lengths based on the weather and how much energy the dogs had each day, and overall was super attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Our boys are missing her already, and we will definitely be using her in the future!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was young but my solo care of pets reflects the years listed above. I have been involved in the puppy care of my two puppies back home in TN as they became adults and I have utilized dog diapers before should that be needed. I’ve cared for a few geriatric dogs before ranging from small mixed breeds, to labradoodles, to Great Pyrenees. Administering medication for geriatric pets is no problem for me! I’ve also worked with special needs dogs with behavioral issues where I needed to administer medication as well. Let me know if you have any questions because I’d love to answer! I do have a part time job as a hostess but usually I am never working more than 4 hours. On days that I’m not working, I can spend all day with your babies! I am always going to be free on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday should you need me. Tuesday and Thursday afternoon and night are also available, I just have school in the morning time. Hope to see you soon! I care for others pets in their home by finding the space in the house where the pets feel most comfortable and normal in, and setting up my base camp there. I want to keep us in a positive space so we can get used to each other. I read the room with the pets to see if it is going to be play time or nap time and act accordingly. I don’t want to disrupt any sort of normal schedule they may already be on. I will be punctual with times instructed for feeding and walking/letting out to do business. And of course, I will give them lots of snuggles to make them feel better while you’re away!

About: Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to watch their pets when necessary. In addition, throughout high school I volunteered as a dog walker at the local human society. Duties included but were not limited to feeding, cleaning kennels, and walking dogs of different sizes and training abilities. I have worked with dogs all ages and sizes as well as temperaments. I enjoy being able to spend time with each 4 legged furry friend and give them the best comfort and care while you are away. I am a full-time stay at home dog mom for 4 fur babies. My hours are fairly flexible with the ability to come and go as needed. Dogs have become a part of my life and a huge passion of mine. I am able to care earlier morning to late evening and everything in between. I follow the schedule that that the client gives. More specifically with ideal mealtimes for the pet, as well as daily walks and play time. My dogs have a routine schedule which I maintain. I have learned that most dogs are comfortable with a strict routine. I provide a safe area for them to play as well as keep majority of 100+ toys in. They receive their routine potty breaks and lots time to exercise outside when it's not chilly or wet. Otherwise, they are inside being great cuddle buddies while watching TV and chowing down on some of their favorite snacks.

About: I am a mother to a wonderful eleven year old, Kiera. And we have a boy dog named Koda! My love for animals started at a young age and I know that love will never end.

I've also spent the last five years working with kids, in a childcare setting at a local church \ pre school. As I move through this next chapter I just recently received my degree for holistic health and am furthering my educations for specifications in holistic health care. I recently moved back to Bristol so I am ultimately looking for a second income while I get everything established. I am available for almost anything and look forward to being able to love and play with all of your fur babies!

About: I work as a veterinarian technician, and I am certified in animal medicine. I have been walking dogs, boarding dogs, and doing in home visits for many years. I love all animals and care for each as if they were my own. All pets have free roam of my home inside and out. They truly will live as they do in their own home. No pet is kenneled! (unless deemed necessary by owner) Although I work in a Veterinarian Clinic, your pets will not ever be alone. Someone is always home with them, even when I personally can not be. You won’t be disappointed with the care they receive here. I also have a Facebook page you dedicated to the pets I board, and walk. I currently work part time at a Vet Clinic in Kingsport. I only work 20 hours a week. So most of my time is spent here. Even when I’m Not here someone always will be home. Hopefully I can soon have pet sitting as a full time gig and I’ll be home and with the pets ALL THE TIME!! Our house is in a very quiet neighborhood, we have 3 dogs a cat who has 3 legs we have an acre of land they can run around on, but it’s not fenced in yet. We have to walk one of ours out on a leash and can accommodate this with your pet as well.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is how I naturally fell into pet sitting through caring for family and friends' pets, which soon caught the attention of neighbors. This journey into pet sitting has deepened my passion for my community. I have experience caring for a diverse range of animals including dogs of all sizes and ages, cats, and pets with special medical needs. I'm also skilled in looking after birds, fish, and chickens, and am enthusiastic about expanding my expertise to include even more types of animals. Whether it's training puppies, providing comfort to senior pets, or administering medicine, my approach is always compassionate and tailored to the specific needs of each pet. I'm eager to bring my love and dedication to more families, helping everyone feel secure that their beloved animals are in caring hands. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine as I work from home, which provides the flexibility to adapt to the specific needs and preferences of each pet. This flexibility allows me to tailor my day around the pets I care for, ensuring that they receive attentive and personalized care on a schedule that suits them best. Whether it's multiple walks, playtime, feeding, or just being there for company, I'm readily available to make each pet's day better and brighter while their owners are away. When caring for pets, either in my home or at a client's, I prioritize creating a comfortable and consistent environment for each pet. Before any stay begins, I communicate closely with the pet parent to understand what a normal day looks like for their pet. This allows me to tailor the pet's experience specifically to their routine and preferences, ensuring there is minimal change and maximum comfort during their stay. By maintaining their usual schedule — from feeding times to favorite play activities — I make the transition as smooth and stress-free as possible, allowing pets to feel secure and at ease whether they're in their home or mine. This customized approach helps ensure that each pet receives the best possible care while under my supervision.
