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 and cats for family, friends, and friends of friends for 10 years. I love interacting with pets, outdoor adventures, and playing my guitar for the pets I watch! I can assure you that your pet will be well loved and have a blast while you are away! Please don’t hesitate to reach out for references or questions! Because I only work on the weekends, I have an extremely flexible schedule during the week. I have plenty of time on my hands and would love to spend it with your animals! When I care for pets, I treat them like part of the family! I make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and any needs like medication.
About: I've been walking neighbors dogs since I was a small kid, volunteered at local animal shelters (walked their dogs), and also have cared for a senior dog (16 year-old poodle) before. I've learned to become patient with pets, especially when cleaning up accidents! I'm a college student at UTK, but I have open time in the mornings, afternoon, and night every weekday. On weekends, I have meetings in the afternoons, but I can still care for pets in the morning and night. I'm confident in my cleanliness, care to detail, and love for pets. I'll care for pets with my whole heart, love them as I would love my own pets, and ensure the pets have a nice experience with me.
“Mandy is phenomenal! She truly cares for your pet and is flexible with scheduling. I worked from home for years and transitioned to an in office job. I was very nervous about my 15 year old pup but Mandy has made this transition easy. It's a blessing to have her! I highly recommend Mandy for your fur babies.”
About: I love all pets! I have two cats and a dog of my own that I love and cherish very much. I have also had and taken care of pets ever since I was five years old! I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, gerbils, and fish; however, I am more than interested in learning how to take care of your pet if I do not have experience in taking care of that type yet. When I pet sit or walk your pet, I will make sure that I take care of them the same way that I take care of my own pets, with responsibility, safety, and love. I also have six years of house sitting experience. I am very good with plants and making sure that your house is taken care of while you are away. I cannot wait to be your sitter!
About: Hi! I’m a current veterinary assistant that is very comfortable with all breeds and sizes. I am also involved with a dog rescue group, so I have learned how to adjust quickly based on what makes your pet most comfortable. I have loved animals since I was a small child, and have gathered relevant skills working at a veterinary clinic for 8+ years on top of my experience owning and caring for dogs my entire life. I currently have three of my own varying in size from 30 to 95 lbs so I am comfortable with any and all dog breeds. I specialize in senior pet care, but I enjoy getting to interact with all ages. It is my philosophy to treat every pet how I would want my pets treated, and I can promise that level of care to my clients! As a side note, I am also comfortable caring for other furry friends, chickens, and reptiles! I do work full time but regardless of how my schedule looks, I’m always happy to fit in pet care to the best of my ability with my job. Normally that means I can accept weekday bookings depending on the proximity to my workplace or home. With my veterinary background and education, you can be sure that I am always watching out for your pets. I catch on to things quickly and will do my best to meet all your expectations. I’m also comfortable with administering all types of medications.
About: I have always been able to communicate and interact with animals much easier than i have with people, it comes more naturally to me. The first thing that my closest friends and family say when introducing me to anyone, especially if they have pets, is that i’m great with animals. it fits in perfectly, i work at part time job at a clothing store but my shifts are only typically four hours, and i get off work anytime between 4-6 so right around dinner time. i have an open yard that my dog can roam freely whenever we let her out, she tends to stay within 10 yards of our front doorstep so we do not keep her on a leash. however, should i be taking care of a dog and it does need to be on a leash when being let out, that is no problem at all.
About: I’m a proud dog mom to two pups—one full of energy and the other a total couch potato—so I’m used to handling different personalities! I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I treat every pet I care for like my own. I’m currently studying online for my real estate license, so my schedule is super flexible! I can easily adjust my day to fit your pet’s needs—whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else—that’s why I prioritize communication and trust. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, and I’m happy to accommodate any special requests or needs your pet may have.
