Dog Walking Falling Water

“Both our dog and our cat love Laura! She takes great care with our animals and makes them feel loved and cared for. Laura put our fur babies first, and we are so appreciate. She is attentive and knowledgeable. We highly recommend Laura!”

About: Hi! I’m Keira, a 21 year old lifelong dog lover from Chattanooga (Soddy-Daisy/Lakesite area) who’s completely obsessed with giving dogs the best care possible! I only take one house-sitting booking at a time so I can give your home and your pets my complete love and attention. Your fur babies will be my whole world while you’re away — I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and very loved every single day! I had the privilege of caring for my soul dog Charley (a mini schnauzer) for almost 10 years. During that time I learned so much about loving and caring for dogs — including giving daily subcutaneous fluids when he needed them. Because of him, I’m especially gentle and patient with senior dogs, but I also adore puppies and their endless energy! I’m very loving, attentive, and flexible with scheduling. Whether you need daily walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your fur baby will get lots of cuddles, playtime, and genuine affection while you’re away. I’d be honored to care for your dog (or cat! I’m very good with cats although I do have fewer years of experience with them!) Feel free to message me with any questions 💕 I’m currently between jobs so all of my focus is on animal care! I have a super open schedule so your furry friend will get so much attention and love!! I can’t offer care from my home, I live with too many people and would hate to stress out your pet, but I can come and stay in your home, whether it be overnight or drop-ins. I’m very good about feeding on time, watching the water bowl, giving frequent potty breaks, and taking a few walks throughout the day. I will also adhere to any special requests you may have for your pup!

“Journey has taken care of my pup several times now. She communicates well and has been available for a few last minute requests which is super helpful for my unpredictable work schedule. She’s great!”

“Jeanette did a great job walking my dog. Sydney can be quite shy, but Jeanette was patient with her. She was punctual, followed all instructions, and sent pictures!”

About: I have been around dogs all my life. All of the dogs and cats that my family and I had/have were found as strays and made part of the family. I would always help my parents take care of my neighbor’s dogs when they are away on vacation. This past fall, I dog sat and dog walked for a family before, during, and after they went on a cruise. I am good with young and old dogs, all sizes!! I grew up loving animals and have been fortunate enough to have cared for many different animals. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, fish, guinea pig, squirrels, and a few birds. In the fall of 2025, I fostered a bunny for 2 weeks and took it to adoption events. If I have the funds, I would have definitely kept it. 😂 I currently have 2 green anoles that I care for and love. Hi! I am Ami Masler. I’m from Memphis, TN and currently finishing up my undergraduate at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. I am majoring in Exercise and Health Science and hope to become an athletic trainer. Fun fact: I love playing volleyball. Like the information described under the “Pet Care Experience” prompt, I grew up with a variety of pets. Think of it like having an out-of-country farm if you will. I love being around animals, so obviously zoos and aquariums are my favorite places to visit apart from my parents’ house. Classes start up late August, so all dates up until then are open until booked. Once college classes start up again, my schedule will mostly stay the same, open. During the semester, I will have a tutoring job, but it shouldn’t have any effect on scheduling or anything like that. If there is a conflict, tutoring sessions can be moved. I always meet clients before I start any service to make sure that I am compatible with the cat or dog. After that, I make sure to follow what the client needs and wants for their pets. I give lots of attention when I’m not at work and make sure that they get all that they need.

“Thank you Rachel for your prompt responses and communication, willingness to consider scheduling adjustments if needed, and taking good, consistent care of Huck.”

About: I am 37 and have been petsitting since I was in middle school. I have grown up with animals in my home. I also worked in a cat vet clinic when I was in college and have experience medicating and giving subQ fluids. I love walking and hiking with dogs and taking the dogs for car rides! I have also fostered cats and dogs for local rescues. I work full time Monday-Friday as a PreK teacher. My work schedule is 7:00-3:30. I am available most evenings and weekends for extra services, such as dog walking and outings. I have a fenced yard (chain link) and supervise their play. I have two friendly dogs (Husky mix and a pit bull mix) who would be around your dog or cat. My 5 cats roam the house freely. I can crate your dog(s) if needed while I am at work. If your pet stays in your home, I can offer up to 3 visits per day on weekdays, up to 4 on weekends depending on how far you are from my house. If you need care for a cat, you can choose to have them around my cats and dogs (must be up to date on vaccinations and parasite free) or I can have them in their own room.

“Sydney is wonderful with animals! Our dog Scooby took to her right away. She is very personable and you can tell she has a love for animals. We feel confident leaving our dog in her care.”

About: I’ve had pets since I was a baby, and currently own a pug myself! I used to volunteer as well at an animal clinic before becoming a nurse. Now I’m a SAHM to three (not fur) babies and would love to give dedicated care to yours with fur! I am a SAHM of three kiddos! One is a baby, and the others are 3 and 4. We spend lots of time out in the yard or going on walks. And if we need to travel to let your animal out, they love to go on trips! Our schedule is wide open. I have a fenced in yard and one dog that goes inside/outside. I do have children, so the dog/cat has to be kid friendly of course. Having owned the dog and cats — my kids are well trained on being gentle and kind to animals of all shapes and sizes! (And when to leave them alone, ie meal time)

About: I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds for over a decade. I have cared for cats, dogs, guinea pigs, bearded dragons, parrots, bunnies, and fish. I love animals and have a very open schedule, so I am looking to spend my time doing something i love- caring for animals! I have cared for animals of all personalities and types, and have experience handling medications and fixing invisible fences as well! Im currently a fresh grad and job searching so I can very flexible. I want to keep working while i search for my next move in life! I live in an apartment downtown, so I do not have a yard. That being said, it is better for me to house-sit than board, but I am open to boarding as i live near several parks like Marion square!

With 3 fur babies of my own, I'm well-equipped to handle all your pet-sitting needs. I am currently a stay at home mom, my schedule is extremely flexible. I am very grateful to be able to be home with my child as she grows. I have a fenced in backyard and 3 fur babies to keep your babies company. Dogs are most definitely welcome on furniture, and no place in the house is off limits.

About: I am very experienced with giving animals medications(including injections)!! I’ve assisted in helping mommy horses deliver their babies!! I really love walking/ running with dogs!! I currently work part time (11:30am-5pm). I typically always come home as soon as I get off work! (22 mins away from my house) This will be a long- term schedule, but I am flexible! I am a mile away from amazing hiking/running trails!! I have two very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company!! My dogs love being outdoor and love their quiet time too after playing!!

About: We have 8 acres with a large fenced in yard providing lots of room to run. We treat them like a member of the family. Our Mini-Aussie Dingo loves the company too!! We are 15 minutes from downtown Chattanooga and lots of mountain climbing, water adventures, and trails around us! I am an online student full time so I am available all the time to pet sit in my home. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run and play. We have balls, frisbees, and other toys we use to play with them. Details about your pet, and schedule are very helpful when inquiring about services! I’m a full time student online, so your furry family member will have my full attention. I take breaks to play with them outside throughout the day. Huge fenced in yard, very safe and secured area for lots of play time. Dogs are fed separately, and are given their own space for sleeping, lounging inside.

About: I’ve been a pet owner since I was a child and grew up on a farm, where caring for animals was part of my daily life. I had Boston Terriers along with a variety of other animals, and they were my responsibility, so I learned early on how to read animal behavior, stay patient, and provide consistent care. What sets me apart is that my schedule allows me to be flexible. I’m also reliable and able to give pets the attention they deserve. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all ages, including puppies who need structure and basic training, as well as senior dogs who may require a slower pace, extra patience, or medication routines. I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, safe, and dependable environment so both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine alongside grad school. I plan my schedule so I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I keep my availability updated to stay consistent. During the week, I balance classes with pet care by organizing my day around walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I also keep my weekends more open, which allows me to take on additional bookings, longer visits, or overnight care. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. My goal is to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship, while keeping their environment clean and secure. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm, and supervised environment where they can feel comfortable. I make sure they get regular walks, structured feeding times, and lots of interaction, while also giving them space to relax if needed. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, whether that’s high-energy play, basic puppy routines, or slower, gentle care for senior pets. My focus is always on making pets feel safe, cared for, and at home.

We have a nice open area with a 6 foot tall fenced yard with shady areas and plenty of running room, this yard is treated regularly for pests ! I’ve also “human mommied” three successful puppy litters so I have a good grip on helping with those! Also, we do have availability for a secluded doggo if needed, if they are more of a lone rider. Due to our home layout, we have plenty of space to make a individual play and stay areas! We do have dogs! All three of ours are trained rescue mixes. Blu is our oldest, he’s roughly 7 He is a blue eyed lab/hound mix. Well mannered and trained. Our next oldest is Zeus. He is roughly 5. Super laid back and quiet lab/terrier mix. Our newest baby is a 4 year old italian greyhound and dachshund mix. He thinks he is fully grown and plays amazingly with the big dogs!  All three dogs are “party animals” 😂 love love hanging with other pups of all shapes and sizes! We have a large fenced yard (6 foot tall) A large sunroom with lots of light and fun toys! We love to play fetch on pretty days and on rainy days we have tug-a-war wars with the resident champ Zeus 😂 We do require kenneled bedtime due to our baby co-sleeping at the moment. We have a flexible schedule, so we enjoy having the pups to fill our downtime. Plus our babies really enjoy having visitors to play with! Casey is a stay at home mom and Luigi is in office daily. We stay strict to follow all parents guidelines for keeping their babies on their regular schedule. We think it’s most important we keep the babies on the regular schedule/daily happenings

About: Mi, my name is Sam! I have recently moved back to the US and am looking for more ways to cover rent. I have grown up with pets my entire life and I currently have two cats and three betta fish tanks. I grew up volunteering at my local humane society and have pet sit mostly for family, friends, and co-workers in the past. I have taken care of cats, small dogs, big dogs, puppies, elder dogs, and more. I am experienced with many different training routines, the most extensive being my friends hunting dog who had to have regular and intense training everyday from basic commands to complex routines. Also, no worries if your pet is a little "high maintenance", whatever your loved one needs I am ready to provide. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy and you feel assured of your pet's care. I am currently job hunting, so I do not know exactly what my schedule will look like at this exact moment. That said, once we communicate the best needs for your pet, I promise to only go for jobs where I can assure that your pet can follow their regular schedule. I can assure that when I come to your house, I will make sure to leave your home exactly as I found it (as I have many years experience house sitting, with many people joking about how "it was like they weren't even there"). I am currently job hunting so I have lots of availability as of right now. Once I am in a more stable working schedule, I will let you know as well as update my profile accordingly. Due to my schedule freedom right now, I am able to fully commit to your pets care. I will always do my best to make sure your pet feels as comfortable and as close to their normal routine as is possible. If it has not been communicated to me before your departure, I will always double check with you before doing something (ex: going to a park or on a hike, playing a certain way, unknown foods, etc.) and will keep you updated on anything I observe or experience.

“Hal took the time to really understand my dog's needs. He was always professional and very easy to work with. He sent me updates every time he walked Charleigh, and let me know when she was having an off day, which is very important to me as a senior dog owner. Charleigh also loved him!! I highly recommend Hal for taking care of your pet.”
