Dog Walking Columbia-Tusculum

“Alison has been very reliable and responsive. She’s been walking our new puppy for the last couple weeks to help us get her out of the crate during our work day so she isn’t in there more than 4hrs. Puppy dealing with some pretty bad stomach issues and Alison very helpful with this as far as checking in with worried pup mom and offering more water/different options when pup not up for a walk. She’s been wonderful and we’re very grateful. Will continue to use her services as long as we can and are in a situation where work schedule forces pup into crate for too many hours.”

“Allison has been great! Super friendly and helpful when scheduling, and she has great availability. This is the second time she's taken our Aussie pup on a walk to help get some energy out. Love getting the pictures of her time with him and the note she leaves about their time together. Will definitely keep using Allison”

“Christine is absolutely wonderful. She has helped me so much with my German Shepherd, Frank! She walks him everyday. She has even made herself available last minute when I have been stuck at work and couldn’t get home to my boy, life saver! I highly recommend if you want someone caring and trustworthy to take care of your fur babies!”

About: I've had cats my whole life! Recently I've fostered six cats (including some kittens) and foster failed my current cat, Goose. I'm studying for medical school exam and have some free time for extra cuddles. Growing up, I frequently cared for my family's two mini Schnauzer's and would love to take your dogs for walks too! I am currently studying for medical school board exams and have a flexible routine that has plenty of time to check in on your furry friends. Not all cats are created equal and I pride myself on being able to read your cat's body language to determine what they need from me. I have experience walking dogs in a busy city environment.

“Corey is an excellent dog walker. My dog really enjoys being with him. He's a good listener and it's clear that working with animals is Corey's passion. He's great with communication too!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds - I have experience in dog-walking, dog and cat sitting and basic care. I treat them as if they’re my own by giving them all the attention they need. They are my top priority when they’re in my care! I am available for dog-walking most late afternoons. I can do 30 or 60 minutes depending on your needs! I have experience with all kinds of leashes. I will create an environment for your pet that will make them feel safe! Whether it’s for a walk or for a visit, they will feel comfortable and at ease.

“Libby is a great sitter! She takes my dog on neighborhood walks or if time and weather permit, adventures to a nearby walking path. She's easy to communicate with and has made me feel at ease while I'm at work! Thanks, libby”

About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and that hands-on experience is what I bring to every walk. I understand dog body language, pacing, leash manners, and how to read when a dog needs a break or a bit more activity — not from a course, but from years of actually living with dogs day to day. I treat every walk the same way I would for my own dog: attentive, on time, and focused entirely on their safety and comfort for the full duration. Whether your dog is high-energy, a little nervous around new people, or just needs a steady routine, I adjust to what they need rather than running a one-size-fits-all walk. You can expect clear communication before and after every visit, so you always know exactly how things went. My schedule is flexible throughout the day, so dog walking isn't squeezed into a narrow window — it's a real part of my daily routine. That means I can offer consistent mid-morning, afternoon, or early evening walks, and I'm also able to accommodate last-minute requests or changes in timing without it being a scramble. If your schedule shifts week to week, I can usually adjust to match it. Safety is the first thing I think about with every walk. When I arrive, I double-check that all doors and gates are secure before I bring your dog out, and I make sure the leash and collar or harness are properly fitted before we leave — no slipping out mid-walk. I stick to routes I know well, avoid off-leash areas unless specifically asked, and keep a close eye on other dogs, traffic, and anything that could startle or spook your dog. I always carry water on hot days and adjust the pace or length of the walk based on weather and how your dog is doing that day. Before I leave, I make sure your home is exactly as I found it — doors locked, lights as they were, nothing out of place. If anything ever comes up during a walk, you'll hear from me right away, not after the fact.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets my whole life, growing up I was always the one to help with all the animals. Started with the neighbors dogs, then I would ride my bike to a house in the neighborhood and look after their two dogs. Now I regularly cat sit for a coworker and am the go to whenever anyone needs help with pets. I have lots of experience with senior dogs, but am willing and able to take care of all ages and sizes. My job schedule is not the most consistent, but typically 9-5 on weekdays, but sometimes I’ll be done earlier or have a long break in the middle, but I always have lunch and I would be able to go back for a potty break then. And weekends are always different, but I would be gone for shorter periods of time. Walks would be in the evening during the week and then we could work out a time in the morning or evening on the weekends. More than happy to keep your baby company if you are out of town and take care of whatever they need. I’m also willing to stay over and house sit if that is needed, but can also just do visits if that’s preferred. If you’re in town, but in a busy phase of life I would be able to take your dog on long walks, do enrichment activities, or take them to a dog park.

About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved animals! I've been a pet and house sitter for friends and family for over a decade, and I'll show the same care for your pet and space that you do! I work evenings so I would have availability in the morning and early afternoon. I would also be available for pet care full time on the weekends. I will always make sure your pet gets the full attention and care they deserve! Your home will be left just as clean as I found it, and I will treat it with respect.

“This was our first time having someone walk the dogs, and Breanna was wonderful! She sent pictures, updates and communicated well throughout. Using her again soon!!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. With more than 30 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I've been surrounded by pets since I was a child. In fact, my very first job was walking neighborhood dogs when I was in middle school—and my love for caring for animals has only grown since then. I've raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood, giving me firsthand experience with house training, socialization, leash training, and the patience and consistency puppies need to thrive. My dogs are truly part of our family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also have experience caring for senior pets who require daily medications, as well as rescue dogs who may need extra patience, understanding, and a calm approach due to anxiety or special feeding routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Beyond dogs and cats, I've cared for many other animals over the years, including birds, fish, hamsters, turtles, frogs, lizards, and hermit crabs. I'm comfortable caring for a wide variety of pets and am always happy to learn about their individual needs. In my full-time career, I work in an elementary school, so I have summers off and additional some flexibility throughout the year (outside of carpooling to my kid’s sports 😉). That allows me to provide dependable, attentive care and plenty of time, love, and companionship for your furry (or feathered or scaly!) family members. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and treated like family while you're away. My schedule is very flexible this summer! Since I work at an elementary school during the school year, I have the summer months off and am available throughout the day to care for your pets. Aside from occasionally carpooling my son to camp/sports, my schedule is wide open, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, walks, companionship, or a consistent routine while you're away, I'm happy to work with your schedule to provide dependable, attentive care. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I prefer caring for dogs in their own home whenever possible, where they can remain in a familiar, comfortable environment and maintain their normal routine. I understand that changes can be stressful for some pets, and I strive to make your time away as calm and worry-free as possible. My schedule is flexible, and I'm happy to work around your dog's individual needs, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and favorite activities. I also welcome the opportunity to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand so your pet can get to know me and you can feel completely confident that they'll be in caring, capable hands.

“Jillian is amazing with my pup! My pup loves her energy she brings, always makes the walks more fun whether going on his favorite routes or taking trips to coffee shops (where he gets treats). And I love the pictures I get to see the fun of the walks 😊 Jillian is very punctual and great at communicating any change of plans needed as an added bonus!”

“Christina has been great with our dog, he is scared of new people and she has done so much to make him comfortable and open up to her. Our dog loves his daily walks now”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could walk. Grew up walking stuffed animals around on a leash just to prove to my parents that I was responsible enough to own one myself. I had two dogs that both lived to 16 so my track record is good I am currently working from home three to four days a week and that allows for me to be flexible with my timing. I can leave the house, let a dog out or just give him/her some extra belly rubs I have a fenced in yard that allows your fur baby to run around freely, but within the home I love to snuggle. Your pets are allowed on furniture and in beds at this household, as long as it’s okay with you.
