About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, mostly dogs. I’ve owned my own dogs since I was 12, and I currently own a German shepherd and a Coton De Tulear. I consider myself a true animal enthusiast and I believe that caring for them is more than a chore, but something you need to be passionate about to give them the best care they deserve. I’m returning to college to pursue a career in veterinary medicine and I’d love to not only give your pets the care they deserve, but to add to my experience for the furbabies in the future! Caring for pets in my clients home will all depend on what I have access to. I am more than comfortable with taking dogs outside/on walks, crating them, and feeding/treating them.
“Kristen has been a huge help with my 9 month old golden retriever. She has been flexible with her schedule and great with communication. She is very friendly and Winnie enjoyed greeting her at the door for a daily walk. Highly recommend.”
“Talitha was wonderful! We booked her for four consecutive days of walking and she took great care of our pup! She was thorough with contact and documenting his walks and sending plenty of pictures. We are so appreciative of her!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. My range of experience goes from new born puppies and up. I have been dog sitting for my neighbor and some family friends for about 2 years now. I work 2 overnights a week at my job Sunday night and Tuesday night but would still be able to help out at night before going in and in the morning after I get out. I can make any accommodations for any of your animals needs whether that’s needing to only go out on a leash or following specific training plans.
About: Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile! I have over 10+ years of experience in working with both cats and dogs. I had my golden retriever Jake, for 15 years, and I currently have a cat named Lulu who is 9 years old. I have previous experience in working with both cats and dogs who have required care. This included checking in on them as well as feeding, walking and playing with them. I really love animals and love that every pet has their own unique personality. I know that animals always bring a smile to my face, and it is my goal that I can return the favor and make them happy as well. I would love to have the opportunity to care for your fur baby!
About: Along with being a certified veterinary assistant and working in the field, I, myself have been taking care of my own animals for nearly a decade! Including but not limited to, fostering dogs of all ages and breed, and rescuing pretty much every cat I come across (We're at four and counting!). I have trained experience in administering medication and senior pet care. It's important to me, as a fellow pet parent, that your furry friend is in great hands in my care, giving you peace of mind while you're away. Currently, I am relocating to East Ridge, TN all the way from New York! While in the process of looking for a full-time position, I've decided to join Rover, which means my availability is wide open! Don't fret, I plan to still offer my services even after finding something long-term. My services will be strictly offered in my client's home, as my animals do better without the presence of other animals. If provided with detailed instructions on what works best for you and your pet, I will be sure to follow them to the letter.
About: Ive taken care of my families dogs for the last 15 years and always made sure they were well cared for. Friends also entrusted me with the care of their animals knowing that I am no stranger to difficult animals and messy situations. I have also been a volunteer at local animal shelters and know how to handle larger and more difficult to walk animals. I have a senior dog now so I also understand the care that goes into helping animals who are struggling I have a dog in my home who has a torn ACL. He has difficulty with stairs and walks so I ice his leg daily and carry him up the stairs. I make sure also to feed him his medication and ensure he is always comfortable given his aches and pains. While I cannot do boarding, within other homes, I will walk and play with animals constantly. I love interacting with pets and find joy in spending time doing what animals love, whether it be snuggled up on the floor, playing tug of war or going on long walks. Any dietary needs or medical care animals require I am well equipped and prepared for all the above

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I never had a pet of my own until I met my former partner and he had a deaf Australian Shepard and I fell in love with her. A year after that we rescued a mix and named him Archer and he is the most loyal, loving dog I’ve ever met. I’ve also helped take care of my sisters mini poodle on and off for about 3 years so have experience with big and small dogs as well as deaf dogs. I work full time currently Monday through Friday but pet care would be something I can do in the evenings and weekends, while also spending time with my own dog. I have plenty of paths and places to walk dogs near my home and my complex has a dog park to play and use the bathroom
About: Having been through a fairly traumatic dog attack myself, I made it my mission to learn all about dog's behavior and why they do what they do. I have studied different ways of training and learning how to react to certain situations with them. I promise to love and give all the fun play time, cuddle time, and attention to your favorite furry friend! Your doggy can sleep in my bed and hang out on the couch. If you are anything like me, your dog is your best friend and child! I had an amazing female Boston Terrier who lived to 13 1/2. I am versed in care of elderly dogs. My new venture is a deaf puppy. We are learning hand signals for training. He is very friendly and loves to make new friends. If you have any questions about what I'm willing to do, or can and can't do, please don't hesitate to ask me! I work for a family business, and can bring my dog to work. Therefore, your pup will be able to come to work with me! I will love your baby as if it was my own. Dogs will always be leashed outside. They are allowed on furniture here and are welcome to snuggle anytime! But if you have different rules , please tell me so I can abide by them.
