Dog Walking Downtown Knoxville

About: I’ve taken care of many animals over the years and absolutely love it. I jump at the chance when a friend or family asks me to take care of their pets! I have experience volunteering at an animal shelter where we got to play with the animals, learn about their behaviors, and clean up after them. My favorite thing to do is take them on walks or just simply hang out. I have lots of experience pet sitting and would love to take care of yours! I’m currently working part-time from home and have flexible hours during the week and weekend. I’d be happy to help out with your pet whenever you need. I have a family dog who I feed, take outside, and play with when I am back home. I am able to do the same for yours!

About: Hello! I am Stephanie, a neuroscience/pre-med/psychology student at UTK! With my education, I apply it to my job as your caretaker. For as long as I can remember, we have always had fur babies in our house from cats to dogs to lizards and frogs! I remember every single baby having a significant contribution to my personality and who I am now. My current best friend is my cat Sashi! Sashi is a kitty I found as a stray around town. I took her in and the rest is history! Each pet is unique with their own quirks, personalities, and conditions. Sashi has separation anxiety, and I couldn’t imagine leaving her alone for a long period of time. I understand what it means to understand, take care of, and appreciate our fluffy friends that are in our lives! I have experience pet sitting animals of all kinds from farm animals, to big, playful dogs, to small, shy cats. I have taken care of for extended periods of time dogs with medical conditions such as seizures, paralysis, partial blindness, and behavioral issues with other dogs. I care for animals of all ages and sizes! I am very knowledgeable with cats in their behavior, body language, and physical well-being. I am very physically fit to be able to run or walk fast and long (no, seriously I can run 5 miles under an 8 minute pace) and lift a heavy amount of weight. No matter the task, I will have no problem! Besides occasional obligations from school, I have plenty of time every day to play, exercise, love on, and feed your fur-babies! I am available multiple hours throughout the day and can stay home full time around my school schedule! I provide services from your home for your pets comfort. I can drive pets if necessary. I will follow strict instructions, clean any mess, and become best friends with your companion. I provide all services from your home and can stay as long as needed that work within schedule! I request information about temperament with humans and other animals, potty training, temperament with car, any special quirks, allergies, any past trauma that is relevant, allergies, leash aggression, and any at home rules for furniture.

About: I've grown up with Labs and have been around dogs my whole life. I've cared for all kinds of pups and kitties—young, old, playful, shy! Friends and family have trusted me for years to look after their dogs, and I treat every one like my own. Whether it's walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I'm here to help! I’m a PT student at LMU, so I keep a pretty full but adaptable schedule. That said, I’m usually available most afternoons after 5 and have lots of flexibility on weekends. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine—I love winding down with walks, playtime, or just hanging out with a furry friend! Wherever I’m caring for pets, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions appropriately—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, meds, or cuddle preferences! I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up caring for cats, dogs, and even chickens! Over the years, I’ve pet sat for many families and have experience with a variety of breeds, personalities, and care needs. I currently have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to help keep your pet happy, healthy, and on their normal routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or prefers a calm environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. No matter what, pet care is always a priority in my routine! My days naturally revolve around caring for my own two dogs, and I intentionally plan my schedule to make sure I have plenty of time to give pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. My current schedule gives me extra flexibility and free time, which means more walks, playtime, cuddles, and one on one attention for your pet. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. If boarding at my house, I live with my boyfriend who also has a relatively flexible schedule and can provide care during any hours that I may be away. In my home, pets are treated like family! I have a large yard for playtime, two friendly dogs who love having company, and plenty of toys to keep everyone entertained. I always make sure pets get lots of attention, exercise, and love while they’re with me. I’m comfortable accommodating different needs and routines, whether that means crating your dog, sticking to a specific feeding or medication schedule, or giving them extra one on one attention. If your dog is used to snuggling up at night, they’re more than welcome to sleep in bed with us and our pups! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress free as possible. I will follow any house rules, schedules, or care instructions you have to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their own environment. I love going on walks and am always happy to take dogs on adventures, get in plenty of playtime, or simply provide companionship and cuddles based on their personality and needs.

About: I have owned pets of all ages- from puppies to senior dogs. I grew up helping family friends care for shelter dogs prior to adoption including feeding, walking and playing with them.

Aside from school and work, my schedule is extremely flexible and I am willing to accommodate for whatever hours are needed. I always ensure that the home is in the same condition as when I first arrived. I love spending time with dogs and will stay as long as needed for them to feel comfortable while their family is away.

About: Specifically I understand the needs of French Bulldogs in certain weather conditions. I also understand other short legged friends that need accommodations and have restrictions such as jumping off furniture or when playing not throwing things too high. I run my own business but have a flexible schedule. I am also a grad student who is about to graduate and will open more time in my schedule. Currently I am available various times during the week with a lot of availability on the weekends. My pup has accommodations in every room of the house. I make sure he has the right food bowls for his breed (elevated and tilted). He also has a variety of toys and doggy door to go sunbathe or potty anytime of the day. I understand cleaning up after our furry friends and making sure they have exactly what they need.

I have lived with and/or cared for a Great Dane, husky/malamute, boxer, pitbull mixes, chow chow mix, among many others. I’ve dealt with resource guarding, have experience with senior care, and am excellent with basic command training. I would love to meet your pups and help make their lives even more enriching!

I am happy to come to your home and follow whatever routine works for your furry friend. I can take dogs on walks in nearby parks or drive them somewhere if they’re comfortable in cars!

I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Speech Language Pathology at UT and am looking for some furry friends to hang out with between studying! I’m currently in school so my schedule is more open than working a 9-5! This summer I have several days a week completely open and am super flexible!

About: I've had pets my whole life, mostly cats, but also bunnies, goats, and a dog. I have also volunteered at animal shelters, and worked in both veterinary clinics and grooming salons. I'm a licensed veterinary technician, which means I am very comfortable giving medications as needed, and may even be able to trim nails or bathe dogs with an additional helper. I have taken care of cats, dog, horses, goats, a tortoise, and a few small pocket pets. I am comfortable with most species, but have limited experience with pocket pets, reptiles and birds. I'm currently in the process of looking for a full-time job, so I have more time than usual to take care of your pet(s)! When I get the full-time job, I will be more limited to dog-walking and drop-in appointments, with more availability on the weekends and holidays. I currently live in an apartment building, so I plan to mostly do dog-walking or drop-in apartments. I have a cat currently at my apartment, who prefers dogs over cats, but may get along with a cat with a careful introduction (she tends to be too playful at times).

“Liza was an absolute gem during our first encounter! Despite the pouring rain and dreadful weather, she took my dog Luna on a two-hour walk through Greenwich Village. Liza's commitment and care for Luna was so evident. When Luna returned, she was clearly well-exercised and content, albeit very wet. I can't thank Liza enough for her outstanding service and will undoubtedly be booking her again for future walks. Five stars for Liza - a fantastic dog walker and caregiver!”
