Dog Sitting Farragut

About: I've spent many years caring for dogs. I’m patient, caring, and attentive with dogs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy while in my care. I'm currently a recent high school graduate who is available at any time while waiting for the next college semester to start, so I can begin classes next year. I will make sure your pets feel safe and trust me, even when I'm new to them. I will make sure to follow any guidelines you've set for me so I can make sure that, even when you're not at home, they won't feel forgotten or lonely.

About: I’ve always been a fan of animals since a very young age and they tend to like me a lot so I’m hoping that you would give me a chance. I can make time for the animals before or after work, and I will be sure to spend time with them and enrich their lives. I will make sure that your pet feels like a part of the family, and if I am in your home, I will make sure that I treat it with respect.

About: I genuinely treat every pet like they're my own. I'm comfortable caring for pets with different needs, whether that's high-energy dogs that need long walks and playtime, puppies still learning routines, or older pets that need a slower pace and a litle extra patience. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications (if necessary), and any specific instructions you leave. I also make a point to keep you updated with photos and check-ins, so you're never left wondering how your pet is doing. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I am a full-time student during the week, but I'm available during my lunch break for walks or quick drop-ins. After 4 PM, I'm fully available for longer walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company. On weekends, I'm much more flexible and can be available pretty much all day depending on your needs. Whether it's multiple visits, extended stays, or last-minute plans, I'm happy to help. I just ask for about an hour's notice, so I can make sure I get there on time and give your pet the attention they deserve. In my own home, I'm used to caring for two very different personalities. I have one high-energy dog who loves to run and play, and one more relaxed dog who prefers to take it easy. I adjust my care based on their needs , whether that means being outside throwing a ball and staying active, or slowing things down for cuddle time and a calm environment. When I'm in a client's home, I follow that same approach. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and routine and adjust accordingly. If your dog loves to play, I'm more than happy to keep them active and engaged with walks, games, and mental stimulation. If they're more laid back or just want companionship, I'm just as happy to spend time relaxing with them and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

About: I have hands-on experience from interning at a veterinarian clinic and working for a local pet care company similar to Rover. As a pet owner myself (dog and epileptic kitten), I know how to handle walks, feeding, bathing, medications, and more. Your pet will be in caring and capable hands! I am available most weekends. I also work from home often, which provides me more flexibility. However, days I am in the office, I am available mornings, lunch time, and evenings. I provide attentive, personalized care by ensuring pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of affection. I follow routines, administer medications if needed, and maintain a safe, comfortable environment in both my home and clients’ homes. I have an epileptic kitten, so am no stranger to anything pet related.

About: I have a variety of experience, I volunteer shelter dogs, have a micro dog myself, have taken care of elderly animals with complication, and have experience with reactivity of all different types. I really do enjoy just being around animals and giving them their experiences. I am currently a senior in college. This is a great way to fit more work in my schedule without negatively impacting my academics. I can’t easily fit pet care into day of the week but I can offer stability when needed. I can’t keep your dog at my house but I can do my best to make your dog so happy when I’m around. I can take your dog to the dog park if you want that. I personally own a chihuahua who does not fit the ankle biter stereotypes because I worked with her.

About: 10+ years experience in the veterinary field. I am comfortable with all breeds and personalities. Providing both peace of mind and exceptional care while you’re away. Hello! My name is Jennifer, but I go by my middle name, Laurel. I’ve been working with animals my entire life. I started my career at the University of Tennessee Veterinary Medical Hospital in 2006 and I’ve been pet sitting since 2008. Although I took a break around 2020, I’m back doing what I love while I’m enrolled in college courses. Thank you for the opportunity to be your pet sitter while you’re away! I do require that all pets be on a leash or within a secure fenced yard. I do not feel comfortable providing off leash walks in the event your pup gets startled or scared.

“She took such good care of our four cats. Our youngest cat is skittish around strangers. I figured that he would hide from her the whole time. But he eventually felt comfortable to play laser with her. Yay!”

About: I have several years working with animals. Most recently I worked at a doggy daycare/boarding. Where I came in contact with many different breeds of dogs. Where I would feed them and take them out to potty. I would also occasionally feed and clean up behind the cats Feeding my own dogs and letting them out to potty when they need. Giving them walks. Playing with them and giving them a lot of attention. I make sure my dogs hygiene is good by brushing teeth, giving them baths(making sure they smell nice and look nice and fluffy), and brushing their fur

About: As a nursing student, I'm highly attentive, responsible and comfortable following detailed care instructions. Whether your pet needs medication, a strict routine, or just of attention and playtime, I'll make sure they are well cared for while you're away! I am currently a nursing student at LMU. As a nursing student, I keep a structured schedule and am very organized with my time. Spending time with animals is also a great way for me to unwind and recharge outside of school, so I am more than happy to help you while you're away! I strive to keep pets on their normal routine to make them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I am very detail oriented so I prioritize carefully follow feeding, walking, medication and care instructions provided by the owner. And if anything is ever unclear, I always communicate that to the owner! I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise (I love my daily walks!), playtime and affection, while also keeping their environment clean and safe.

About: We provide a second family while you’re away. We take ONE furfamily at a time. Two or three families if all pups are familiar before their stay. Meet and greet preferred. Copy of up to date shots required. We’re happy to provide ours upon request. I am home all day minus taking my son to and from school and activities, never gone more than a few hours. I work from home as a registered nurse. My shifts are 2-4 hrs at a time so there is plenty of time to spoil and provide one on one time to make it feel like home. Dogs are NOT crated unless necessary or preferred by you. I have a few crates, depending on size. Preference is one the dog is already familiar with. Homemade frozen treats, fruits, and vegetables provided, please specify if you prefer no treats. You’re welcome to bring your own. We have a huge back yard (.5acre) and inside space available for those rainy days. When booking your stay please be aware paws get dirty, depending on your pets energy level we play and run hard! We rinse paws but do not provide baths. Drop off on first day before noon and pick up on the last day after noon will accrue half day charge. Plenty of long term, local references! Daily photo updates between 4-8pm, a visual day of the fur vacation. Check out our pictures to see our sleepover friends and fun! We've been lucky enough to have 5-6 frequent clients. Sadly some have passed or are in their elderly years where they're parents aren't traveling as much. Hoping to create some new clientele. If you've read this far, wow, you're awesome! Thank you ❤️😉 We love dogs and treat them like family. My boys can be loud and have little to no manners when it comes to barking so please excuse them when you arrive (even if they know you). They are my children and your dogs will be too. Their stay will be “just like home” to include going in and out 25 times a day 😉. To avoid accidents, I will not feed our animals together. My dogs are not aggressive in any way but being animals I believe it best to always be cautious. We live on a half acre with fenced in yard. All dogs are free roaming all day, they have their own gated off space when we leave. We have lots of space for play inside and out and plenty of places to rest in between.

“Colby was great. He was able to help us out at the last second with two drop in visits. Colby was prompt, friendly, and took great care of our pup. She was a happy doggo when we arrived home. The play pics let us know Dottie was in good hands. Definitely recommend.”

About: I’ve taken care of many family and friends pets over the years, and I’ll love on yours just like they’re my own! I want to give you piece of mind that you’re pets are well taken care of while you’re away! I can also take care of other animals you may have, for example one client had a pet pig and I took care of and feed her just the same as the dog! I work full-time Monday-Friday between 7:30-3:30. But I have plenty of time to watch your fur-babies and home all 7 days of the week! I can stay in your home with your pets overnight or pop in for check-ins before heading to work in the morning and again in the evenings. Depending on how far it is from my office I can come and give them a potty break on my lunch break. I can follow any routine you want! Whether you want them to be crated during the work day and at bedtime overnight or you let them sleep in bed with you, I can do it too! I’ll follow any diet or medication plans that you want, and treat them like they are my own! We can do normal walks or even dog parks! I don’t care to let them ride in my car with me for some extra play time!

About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.
