Dog Walking in Franklin

“It looked like Maggie and Nya had a great time on their walk! I loved the pictures that Graciela sent me. They had almost a 2 mile walk in just 30 minutes, so Nya is already napping. I plan to book with Graciela again!”

“I have never trusted a stranger to walk my dogs so I’m very happy things went well with Elizabeth! It’s great knowing I can trust her when I need a walker again in the future. Elizabeth is very nice and I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy person to walk their dog.”

About: I have watched the pets of friends, family, and peers of mine and have had an amazing time doing it! I also had a family dog and I have a cat of my own! I have watched / walked pets of many ages, weights and temperaments and I have been happy with all of them! I am respectful towards boundaries of pets, and have experience grooming my own pets who are reactive at the grooming salon and are better at home. I also have lots of walking dog experience as well. I am working part-time on the weekends, I am able to stay overnight during weekends. I cannot bring any other pet home because of my own cat but I am able to travel and stay at other houses on the weekends. I am able to do one day pet sitting and short and long dog walks as well. I am able to also take dogs or cats on car rides if needed as well! I have cared for my family dog along side my family for her whole 13 year life, she was a yellow lab. I now have a maine coon who is 19 lbs and has double hip dysplasia and a bad knee who is 5 years old. I have groomed both of those pets, walked both of those pets on leashes and taken daily care and made sure any problems they have had, had been helped and treated with care. I safely take directions from owners whose pets I have watched and followed them fully and have reached out an asked questions and made them aware of everything that had happened when they were gone. I take pet care very seriously and I always bring up anything I notice is wrong and always make sure the pets safety and happiness is priority!

About: What truly sets me apart from other sitters is the level of love, patience, and personal experience I bring to every pet I care for. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else. I know firsthand how important reliable, attentive, and compassionate care is — because that’s exactly what I want for my own pets. I have experience working with puppies, including basic training reinforcement like potty training, crate training, leash manners, and positive behavior encouragement. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, mobility support, or just a little extra patience and gentleness. Beyond the basics, I pay attention to the small details — each pet’s personality, routines, comfort needs, and quirks. Whether it’s energetic playtime, structured walks, cuddle sessions, or calm companionship, I tailor my care to what makes your pet feel safe and happy. To me, this isn’t just pet sitting — it’s caring for a member of your family. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with genuine love, responsibility, and respect. Pet care is naturally built into my daily and weekly routine because I already structure my day around my own pets’ needs. Every morning and evening include scheduled walks and potty breaks to keep dogs active, comfortable, and on a consistent routine. I provide morning and evening feedings, with fresh water available at all times throughout the day. In addition to scheduled breaks, I let dogs out as needed — paying close attention to their cues to make sure they’re comfortable and never waiting too long. Because caring for animals is already part of my everyday life, adding another pet into my routine feels seamless. I prioritize consistency, supervision, exercise, and affection, making sure each pet feels secure and well cared for from morning to night. My care always depends on the service requested, but my priority is the same in every setting: safety, consistency, and lots of love. In My Home: When pets stay with me, they become part of my daily routine. I maintain structured morning and evening walks, regular potty breaks throughout the day, scheduled feedings, and constant access to fresh water. I create a calm, clean, and pet-safe environment where they can relax comfortably. I follow the owner’s instructions closely — whether that’s crate training, reinforcing puppy training, administering medication, or providing extra support for senior dogs. I also make sure they receive plenty of playtime, affection, and supervision so they feel secure and at home. In My Client’s Home: When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, potty breaks, medication instructions, and any household guidelines exactly as requested. I respect your home and keep everything clean and organized. Most importantly, I make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment while you’re away. No matter the location, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, attention to detail, and genuine love. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously.

About: Hello! I’m April and have had fur babies all my life—my Miniature American Eskimo (Molly) for 15 years until she became sick. I was also mom to Sydney and Charlie from the time they were kittens to older adults. They were tabby cats. I have a special place in my heart for kitties! I miss having furry companions of my own, so I’d love to offer your pets the same affection and care I gave to mine. I’m an educator, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I’m available to help with occasional services or on a more regular basis. I can make a visit nearly any time of the day! Your home is your pet’s comfort zone, and I respect that. I’ll follow your instructions closely, provide lots of love and attention, and make sure your pet feels safe, seen, and well cared for—just like you would.

“Kailey has been amazing for our puppy Cooper!!! She leaves very detailed notes for us on the walks and we LOVE the pics she takes for us! She understands his quirks and works so well with him!!!”

About: I’ve been a devoted animal lover and pet owner for as long as I can remember. From dogs and cats to caring for pets with unique personalities and needs, animals have always been a huge part of my life. Currently, I share my home with a lovable, mischievous hound mix who keeps me on my toes and a cat who completely stole my heart. A few years ago, I lost my soul dog, Jersey, and that experience deepened my understanding of the special bond we share with our pets. I know firsthand how difficult it can be to leave them behind and trust someone else with their care. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, affection, attention, and plenty of love. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, playtime, cuddles, a walk, or simply a friendly face while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and communication throughout my visits. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that often allows me to accommodate drop-in visits and pet care needs throughout the day. I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care and building a trusting relationship with both you and your pets. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and becoming someone you can count on whenever you need a helping hand! 🐾❤️ I work from home and have a decently flexible schedule. I have a young son and pets of my own but thankfully I share these responsibilities with my rockstar husband so I will be able to care for your fur babies. I understand that having a stranger in your home can be a little uncomfortable. I will 💯 respect your space and keep things clean in order for your while you are gone. Please let me know your preferences for my stay.

About: Surrounded by dogs my entire life, I’ve helped care for family pets and lovingly raised my own for 3 years. I provide walks, playtime, feeding, and a safe, loving space while keeping owners informed. I am currently available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting on Fridays in the evening, typically between 7:30–8:00 PM or later and Saturday and Sundays. I’m dependable, follow your pet’s routine, and always share photo updates so you feel comfortable while you’re away. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and supervised. I follow your instructions, keep everything secure, and send updates. I also have a friendly, energetic dog who’s happy to play — only if you and your dog are comfortable.

“Kam has been great to work with and brings peace of mind. She is prompt and reliable for our regular walks! We are thankful to have her take care of our Lexi.”

“Julie was great with my elderly dog! She was kind and personable and always cheerful! I appreciated her taking such good care of Rogue and walking her in treacherous conditions like ice and snow! I’d definitely recommend her and use her services again :)”

About: I have taken care of all types of animals from fish to lizards. I take of care my own dogs and cat currently and babysit for family and friends. I currently have the summers off due to being a teacher. This allows me to have open availability all summer! I’m available for all services. I have woods in backyard and a dog park across street to provide plenty of exercise. I would take care of your pets as you wish. Anywhere from a hour walk to a few snuggles in the middle day, I’m happy to do it.

About: I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends for years because I actually enjoy the 'tricky' stuff. From helping my own senior dog with bladder issues to winning over an abused, reactive Rottweiler, I have a lot of heart for pets that need a little extra patience. I’m also totally comfortable with bearded dragons and cats! I’m used to walking dogs in areas without fences, so I’m very careful on the leash and always keep safety first. I’ve had to clean up after bad sitters so I'll make sure your house stays spotless and your pets stay happy while you’re gone! Animals are a huge part of my daily life, so I build my schedule around making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m currently available Monday-Sunday with Flexible Hours and am always happy to help with last-minute requests or holiday bookings when you're in a pinch. Which is perfect for seniors needing extra potty breaks or reactive pups who need a calm, un-rushed walks. I make your pet's routine my top priority every single day! Safety is Always my top priority, but keeping your pets happy is a close second! Whether I’m hanging out with your cat, dog, or bearded dragon (exc. I stick strictly to the routine you’ve set so they feel totally secure while you're gone. Since I’m used to walking pups in areas without fences, I’m always extra careful to double-check leashes and harnesses before we head out the door. I’m also a bit of a neat freak so I’ll make sure your home is pet-proofed and leave it even cleaner than I found it. I’m a big believer in open communication, so expect plenty of photo updates of your best friends (scales or fur!) so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands!

“Excellent immediate communication always. Two days 1.5 hrs late out of 9 days but otherwise on time. I did not see Quazaye with my dog when she was walking him but could tell he was missing her when time ended. Always sent pics, consistent. Would use again! Thank you for your service.”

Cindy S.

“Brooke was great. She showed up when she said she would. Walked both dogs and sent pictures and updates about them. Will be going with her again when I need a dog walker. Highly recommend.”

Andrew M.

“Vanessa has been walking my dog regularly for several weeks now and I couldn’t be happier with her help. She’s been very patient and loving with my dog, flexible on the schedule, and provides great walk reports and pictures. Thanks, Vanessa!”

About: I love to go on walks and understand busy pet parent schedules. I’ve had great danes my whole life so I am comfortable with larger dogs. I have helped with my neighbors and parents coworkers dogs since I was 10. Will take most same day appointments I work part time with a pretty open schedule. tuesdays and thursdays are my busiest so i will most likely not be available during the day. I love playing with all types of dogs. I also understand how to deal with older and younger dogs. I am very familiar with crates, fenced in yards, and all different types of leashes/harnesses.

About: We’ve loved our own dogs for over 25 years and have decided to take a break but still want the joy of having a pet in the house. We live on a half acre lot where 2/3 is in back and fenced in. We have a pet friendly home, nothing fancy, but clean and welcoming. My husband and I are recently retired, so we have lots of time to spoil your pets. We are available for day care and overnight. Go ahead and plan that long vacation, your pet is safe with us. We will be traveling a small amount this year but for the most part, we are available. Your pet will be supervised the entire time unless we have to run an errand but we can certainly discuss any concerns and make adjustments as needed.

“Emma is amazing with my senior dog as well as my younger dog. She is super sweet, responsive and communicative, and reliable!”

Lauren W.

“Emily was incredibly responsive to messages and was able to come by on short notice to do a meet and greet prior a few scheduled walks we unexpectedly needed later that day. In the pictures, it looked like our dog Ducky had a great time.”
