About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life and my enjoyment for being active alongside a fur friend has extended into my now Dad years! Specialize in big dogs as I know from personal experience of having a 60lb+ pup that they can be a handful sometimes. I started this service 3 years ago as a stay at home dad with my 1yo daughter in tow. Now that she’s off to full-time school I’m more available during the midday each week. I treat each dog I help care for in the same way that we treat our own, while following your instructions for what’s best for your pet. I enjoy taking them for some exercise, belly rubs, enrichment and making sure they have all the snacks they need.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for literally all of my life.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and love spending time with them, playing with them, going on runs, etc. I’ve dog sat for years with family and friends as well. My childhood dog and cat just passed away so my cup needs some filling when it comes to animals! I work on tours so I am out of town most weekends, but when I’m in town I love to use my days off to be outside and go for walks. I love talking dogs to parks or walking around the neighborhood, but even just sitting with them or playing fetch, I love to do! My cup is filled by being around animals so anything they need, I’m happy to do. In my home we treat our pets like they’re a part of the family, they eat twice per day and always have food and water available. We allow them on couches and beds but they have their space too. At home, I love taking my dogs on walks and runs with me and playing fetch with my labradoodle. My cat sleeps with me every night when I’m home and I love being around animals in general

I'm a stay at home mom to my 7yo daught and have alot of spare time. Nothing is more fitting for me than to make some extra cash by being able to extend your furbabies family. I prioritize safety and comfort in both my home and your pets home. In my home, I have a secure, pet proof environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation.

“The best dog sitter ever! Kazu went above and beyond to help us with Beau for a few days. He’s dependable and is great with dogs. Highly recommend him and I will use his services again. Thank you, Kazu!”

About: I have over two years of experience in pet sitting and house sitting, both as a full-time employee with a professional pet sitting company and through caring for pets for friends and family. This experience has given me extensive knowledge of the day to day responsibilities involved in providing exceptional pet care, including feeding, administering medications, maintaining exercise routines, monitoring health and behavior, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am also experienced in house sitting duties such as maintaining a clean and secure home, collecting mail, watering plants, and following detailed care instructions. My background has taught me the importance of reliability, communication, and treating every pet and home with the same level of care and respect I would give my own. I currently work as a full time Administrative Assistant at Opryland, but hours are very flexible. I usually work 8 hour shifts. I am able to work 6 hours if needed. As far as my pets at home, they are playing outside majority of the day and I will sit outside with them. Depending on the weather outside of course. I currently do not offer boarding at my home, but when it comes to caring for your pets in your home they would be let out at least 3 times a day and fed based on your feeding schedule! Water is a constant of course, the water bowl should never go empty!
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 7 years and also work at a dog boarding place, so I’m super comfortable with all kinds of dogs—puppies, seniors, big or small! I’ve given meds to older pups, done bath time, and taken dogs on plenty of long walks. I also house sit and make sure pets feel safe and happy while their people are away. I have dogs of my own, so I get how important it is to have someone you trust. I treat every pet like family! Caring for pets is an big part of my daily life. With my work at a dog boarding facility and my pet sitting duties, I am constantly surrounded by animals. My schedule revolves around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special care needs like medication or bathing. It's more than just a job to me—it's a passion that I truly love and enjoy every day! I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home. I stick to their routine, give them lots of attention, and keep the space clean and calm. Safety and trust always come first—I treat them like my own!
“Sharon was great with our dogs. She communicated well and sent plenty of pictures, and even offered to to back and check on our pup again after she left and we were concerned about her being sick (which occurred before Sharon got there).”

“Jenna is really good and experienced dog sitter, Rocky our pet dog loved her company and care, she made sure rocky is comfortable and ensured he got all the care needed while we were away. Thanks to her experienced care and service”

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own and love getting to know their personality! I’m great with both energetic puppies (potty breaks, playtime, routines) and sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I also send lots of updates and photos, so you’ll never miss your furry friend too much! I am also MORE than happy to take same-day drop ins & walks. I’m currently working a part-time internship while home from UTK for the summer (Go Vols!), so I have plenty of time to take care of your pup(s)! I currently only provide on-site dog care at this time. I love dogs and being active! We can go on walks, have playtime, or just hang out! Whatever works best for your pup! :)
“Macon was amazing with our two kitties. While our one cat is very social and loves attention, our other cat is very shy and doesn’t trust people easily. By the end of our trip, our shy kitty was all snuggled up and loving the attention. Macon sent photos and a check-in update during each visit. Feels good to know our kitties are in safe hands while we are away. Highly recommend!”

About: I have dog & puppy sat for clients, friends and family over the last 12 years. I love dogs & know playtime & regular exercise is essential to their health but not everyone has the time to help them get as much as they may need. This is where I come in! Whether it's just walks, overnight stays or puppy playtime I'm your girl. I started out my care of animals volunteering at an animal shelter in the Bay Area. I went there to adopt an animal and it broke my heart to see all of the dogs locked up in cages all looking up out of their cages with their sweet puppy dog eyes hoping they could be given a second chance & taken home with you. I wanted to take them all home! I then made it my primary mission to begin volunteering numerous times a week walking as many dogs as I could. Most of them I had to walk individually for safety reasons so it was quite the exercise regime for me but I loved knowing I could get them out for some playtime & extra attention they so deserved, especially not knowing what their fate would be. From then on I decided to also pick up extra work in addition to my full time job being a caretaker for all pets, my passion truly lies with animals and I find it very therapeutic in so many ways, bonding with animals of all different kinds but above all... dogs☺️ I work part time teaching pilates and my partner works from home so we provide constant care and attention. My schedule allows frequent breaks to attend to the dogs with walks, potty breaks and bonding time with other dogs There’s a dog park and trails at our apartment complex and the dog will be with us at all times. With dogs who are reactive on leash I always ensure to create a safe distance from other dogs and do not let dogs off leash unless in an enclosed space
“Jemma did a wonderful job checking in on our pup. Very friendly, timely and caring! Definitely recommend her taking care of pets. We plan to get her to help again in the future. Thanks Jemma!! 💕”

Wow! Joe and Daniella came for a drop in visit today for my two girls. They made sure my pups got to go outside to do their business. Joe and Daniella were very communicative with me and made me feel at ease. I am so impressed and extremely grateful for their help!!!
Deborah was awesome! She took great care of our doggies. Which I appreciate very much. She sent pics and kept us informed. We have never left our doggies with a sitter before. I would highly recommend her for anybody looking for somebody that takes good care of their babies.Thanks again Deb. Quit.
