About: II’ve loved animals my whole life and have a natural gift for connecting with them—especially cats! I have extensive experience with medical care, including giving injections, liquid medications, and complex pill schedules. I also previously held a Groomer’s License in Colorado, so I am very comfortable handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve cared for animals with everything from broken limbs to chronic diseases, so your pet is in very capable hands." I moved to Elizabethton just before Thanksgiving to be with my parents and I became the primary caregiver for my father, who has dementia. It’s a responsibility I’m proud to take on. Getting out of the house to walk, play with, and fall in love with your pets is exactly what I need to stay balanced. Since I manage my dad’s daily tasks, I have a very flexible schedule and the time to truly focus on your fur-babies. I’m looking for that 'pet therapy' a reason to get out and about just as much as your pets are looking for a loving caregiver. I’ll be there whenever you need me to even in short notice! Safety and trust are my top priorities. When I am in your home, I am respectful of your space and extremely vigilant about door safety and environment hazards. I am honest about my capabilities; I would never attempt a medical or care task if I wasn't 100% confident I could do it safely. My vehicle is also set up for safety, with plenty of room and when needed a leash that conect to their collar or harness then buckes to the backseat so your pets are secure while we are on the go.

“Heather was wonderful pet/house sitter for our dog. It was the first time we left him with someone that wasn't family, and he did great. She sent us updates and pictures twice daily. It was nice to see he was being well cared for while we were away. She also took great care of the house and left it possibly cleaner than when we left. I highly recommend Heather!”

“Christy went above and beyond for my kitty while I was out of town for a long weekend. She was very proactive with communication. Left my home in tip-top shape and went above and beyond when a flight got delayed unexpectedly. I would re-book with Christy 100%.”

“Opal always does a great job watching my dogs. They were snuggling up with her before I even left the house. She is also great at sending updates like pictures and she was respectful of my house and didn't leave a mess or anything!”

“Lisa is phenomenal! My animals are happy, I'm happy, and I will gladly work with her again. I was very comfortable having her house sit. Thank you!”

“Kyleigh took care of our post-op senior dogs over several days, and everything was wonderful. She gave them meds, removed the cones for meal time, and made sure they were snuggled and loved while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a more responsible and respectful caregiver. Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, from horses to reptiles! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and some of the others throughout. We recently lost our dog to cancer at just shy of 13 years old, and I’m currently volunteering as a dog walker at the animal shelter to help fill that void. With the limited hours available there, I thought we could try this avenue as well. I work full time, but my daughter and I would love to find a dog to walk Wednesday through Friday evenings, or weekends! We are available some weekends for dog/cat care while you’re away as well. We love walking dogs, playing fetch, petting them, and providing lots of love. We enjoy playing with cat toys, and giving them plenty of attention as well.

“Margaret was great and professional. She provided updates with photos and videos of our pet. Our puppy was well taken care of!”

About: I have 20+ years of canine experience, providing expert care for dogs of all ages. I have experience working with both young puppies and senior dogs, ensuring their specific needs are met with care and attention. I am skilled in training and handling, and providing safe transportation. I have managed, owned and operated doggy daycares, ensuring daily play, socialization, and individualized attention. Every dog in my care receives loving, professional, and reliable care. As a dog mom myself, pet care is a natural part of my daily schedule. I pride myself on owning happy animals by providing constant care and attention. In my home all pets are treated like family. I believe in letting dogs be dogs. Stemming from that belief, I do not crate the animals in my care (unless strictly necessary or requested by the client). I live right next to a fenced dog park so all dogs in my care get ample opportunity to stretch their legs. I also provide frequent potty breaks, daily walks and structured meal times.

“Manny had a great time and Tiffany was very helpful on short notice!”

About: For the last few years, I’ve had experience pet sitting for clients with dogs and cats of varying ages from 1-10 years old. I love spending time with animals to make sure they stay as comfortable as possible while their owners are away, and am always willing to spend time with them whether that be playing, walking, or just chilling out at their house. I’ve dealt with dogs both small and large and am capable of taking care of all size animals. I’m currently a college student at ETSU and also a YoungLife leader. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I am booked from 10-3 and other days vary depending on my schedule. My schedule is somewhat flexible, so I can guarantee that adequate time will be made to ensure your pet(s) have all their needs met from bathroom breaks to staying overnight at your home. I can meet whatever specific needs your pet has, whether it is giving them a certain amount of crate/outside time, rewarding them for doing good, going off of their schedule to keep them in routine, etc.

About: I have experience in training puppies as well as older dogs. I am all inclusive when it comes to fur babies. I have a pit bull named Nina and a cat named Cricket. They are both my best friends and I totally understand just how important it is to find someone to truly care for your pets. I have worked with animals of all shapes and sizes all the way from Mastiffs to Yorkshire Terriers. I’m here for all of your fur babies needs. I am currently working part time and going to college at ETSU. I have plenty of time to play, walk, and take care of your fur babies. I can work in the morning, afternoons, and evenings. I can work the day of request but prefer at least one day before that to make sure that I can give enough time to your fur babies. I live in an apartment so unfortunately I can’t board your dog but I can board your cat if you are okay with them playing with my female cat Cricket. I can separate them if necessary and discussed prior. I love watching dogs or cats at your home. It’s preferred for me because it keeps them the most comfortable. I love to walk dogs and have previous experience in this. If your dog has any triggers such as other dogs, men, loud noises, or even crowded environments please let me know so I can meet your fur babies needs fully, safely, and completely. This is truly my passion and I cannot wait to be able to fulfill any and every need for your pets.

“Highly recommend!! Natasha is responsible , thoughtful and easy to work with!! I appreciated that she stayed in communication with us while we were gone.”

“This was my first time using Rover. Let me tell you I was lost. Thank goodness we found Leah! I didn’t understand any of it! After Leah very detailed explained each thing we found out that house sitting was our best option! Leah was amazing! We have one dog that has some “issues” and it didn’t faze her one bit. She kept us posted everyday with pictures and videos, and when we got home our home was even better than we left it! She is wonderful. If your searching for someone stop looking and book Leah!”

About: I have been caring for animals since I was a young child. I use to volunteer at our local Shelter. I enjoy walking and playing with the dogs and giving lots of scratches and love and cuddles. I'm able to take them to appointments, feed them, etc. I currently have my precious best friends Buddy who is a Jack Russell Chihuahua mix and Cooper a Beagle, Chihuahua, Poodle mix! Buddy loves to walk in the park and play just like all our 4 legged friends and his younger brother Copper loves to do Zoomies in the house and yard, loves to kay in the sun and play with squeaky balls! I also have a cockatiel named Sora. 7 parakeets, named Sweetie, Little Foot, Baby, Neptune, Snow, Sunflower, and Millet. 1 cat named Kisa, and 1 Plecostomus or sucker fish named Archie! I love to spend time with and give lots of tender loving care to them all! I work 4 days a week but not late thankfully, so I'm always around to take care of my fur, feather, and scale, babies! We all love to play but also to learn different tricks and fun things to play with. I have a fenced in yard that my dogs have access to through a doggy door. I have a large indoor aviary for my birds, and my Sucker fish Archie has a large tank to himself!
