Dog Walking Hixson

About: Hello! My name is Kim, I am 26 years old and have a steady job at Ulta Beauty with a pretty set schedule working full time. I started working for Rover in April of 2017 because I absolutely love dogs and have a passion for them! :) I have been a dog owner for as long as I can remember and love hanging out with all kinds of pups! I love them all and they absolutely have my heart! I have experience with all different sizes, shapes, and personalities of dogs and love every pup equally! I've handled dogs as large as Great Danes and as small as chihuahuas! Unfortunately I am unavailable at the moment for bringing dogs to my own home, my pup is older and I am unwilling to board her or keep her locked up for long periods of time. Thank you for understanding. I have trained and dog-sat dogs as well for many years and treat every dog as though they are my own! I love to send many photos and updates of your babies to you so it feels like you're there with us even when you're away! I can't wait to meet your pups! Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have! I work full time with Ulta Beauty and I absolutely love it! I can work some pretty crazy hours but always a 8 hour shift! I am open to any needs of your fur babies! If you let me know what they are and we can work it out together!

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.

“This is my second week using Trish and she has been nothing short of fantastic. 1. Great with the pups 2. Communication is top notch. 3. On-time and has even sent me follow-ups out side pictures. Highly recommend!!”

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.

“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.”

“Jordan did a great job covering daily walks for me with my little Havanese. Emmy is very spoiled but Jordan had her behaving so well on their walks. Would definitely call on Jordan next time I travel.”

“Jade was wonderful! She was communicative, always on time, and flexible with our change of plans. She followed all the instructions/requests we had, and even took notes at our meet & greet to ensure that she didn’t forget anything. I definitely appreciated that. Our dog is very nervous around strangers, but he loved Jade and did great with her! She even left us some homemade treats for him, which he devoured! ! I highly recommend Jade & will be using her again in the future.”

About: I've always had a passion for caring for animals & have had them in my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I've cared for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior animals with special needs. I volunteered for several years at a local animal shelter, where I spent time caring for cats and walking/training dogs. Having had an elderly dog myself, I know how to handle the specific needs of older pets too - managing mobility issues, administering medications, & ensuring they are comfortable and well cared for. I know just how hard it can be to have someone new care for your pet, so I prioritize communication. I'm happy to always send pics + regular updates to give you peace of mind & help you feel connected! Having a cat that needs fairly specific care, I'm committed to knowing & following your pet's specific care. If they need an active schedule with lots of walks and playtime or gentle care due to age or health concerns, I'll ensure they get the best attention possible. My goal is to make sure you & your pet are happy & comfortable while I’m watching them, so I always treat every animal as if they were my own fur baby. I have a very flexible work schedule, which makes it easy for me to accommodate your pet care needs, whether it's regular check-ins or walks/feeding. I’m able to ensure they get all the attention, exercise, & care they need :) As an attentive animal lover - whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime - I pay close attention & follow your pets usual routine. I take safety seriously - securing doors, gates, and following any specific instructions you provide. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy and cared for in their own familiar environment!

“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!”

I’m available throughout the week and on weekends. I am able to stay in your home overnight. I can come to your home for playtime, walks, and general care. I am also available for overnight stays in your home. I am comfortable providing medication and injections.

“Paige did a great job! My pups were excited to see her!”

“Alex was really great with my pups. Arrived on time, communicated really well, was super personable and I felt comfortable with him with y pups who he walked for 1 hour. I would not hesitate to ask him again.”

Joy R.

“Christian took great care of our dog while we were away. We appreciate his photos and that he let our dog into the pool to cool off after every walk. Thank you again Christian!”

Linda F.

“Justin might as well be a dog whisperer. Our pups love him and he incorporates his dog training knowledge while providing excellent care, including phenomenal photos. If he can wrangle our 160 lbs of 2 rowdy schnauzers (giant/standard), he can handle anything. 6 out of 5 stars.”

“Thank you so much Bailey for everything! We really appreciated the amazing communication; Bailey was there waiting for us earlier than we expected for both pickup and drop off. Extremely nice and reliable. We would highly recommend!!!”
