About: Hi, i’m Brooke! I have over 5 years of experience with all kinds of animals including senior and special needs as well as medication administration, pet sitting for family and friends and volunteering at local animal shelters! I am a stay at home mama to my sweet toddler who absolutely adores animals as well! I’m home 24/7 which means I have a very open and flexible schedule to fit your needs best! I offer boarding and doggy day care in my home and up to three drop in visits a day in your home as well as dog walking! I have a big fenced backyard where your fur babies can run and play along with a neighborhood perfect for daily walks! Along with my toddler I also have three friendly cats who are comfortable with other animals but mostly keep to themselves

“Matthew showed up as scheduled to walk Oakley to give him a potty break and some excercise. After their walk he fed Oakley his lunch. It is so nice to know Oakley was care for while we are work. We will use him again.”


About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and understanding of animals, especially cats, combined with my commitment to providing personalized care. I take the time to learn your pet’s unique routine, preferences, and personality to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. With a deep attention to detail and experience as a cat owner myself, I’m skilled at recognizing subtle cues that may indicate their needs or moods. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. As a full-time student, I’ve mastered the art of balancing responsibilities, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being of animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s feeding, playing, or providing companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine, ensuring they receive attention and care when they need it. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me—it’s a passion I make time for every day, even amidst my busy academic life. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them. In my home, I ensure the space is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration. I maintain a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, playtime, and quiet time to keep pets happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect and follow their established routines to provide consistency for their pets. I take care to keep the space clean and secure, ensuring their pet feels at ease while maintaining the familiar surroundings they’re used to. Whether it’s walks, feeding, litter box maintenance, or administering medications, I provide attentive care tailored to their specific needs. In both settings, communication with the pet owner is key—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give peace of mind and ensure trust.

About: Thirty years of experience of opening my home and to families that cherish and love their dogs. They’re considered beautiful guests in my home and treated with respect. I’m newly retired and home full time. Have plenty of time for walks and activities for your dog. Also, privacy if he/she requires quiet time. I have a beautiful new home with a fenced in backyard. Plenty of space to run around and play. I can also offer quiet space also.

About: I've had animals all my life. From cats to dogs to hedgehogs. It's always been important to me to show animals how much they're loved and appreciated because they have feelings too. I am 19 but didn't really start actually feeding a walking my animals until I was older to do it with my family. When I go to my friend's house I always love taking the dogs on walks, drives, or even just cuddling. I've experienced all animal ages from puppies/ kittens to senior dogs. I am currently on summer break from college. I will be a sophomore in the fall. I have a cat and family dog. My cat tipsy is who I take back to college with me. I wake up, feed him, play and cuddles then he usually naps and does his own thing. I clean his box and then feed him at dinner time. Same goes with my dog Lucy if my parents need me to give her, her medicine if they aren't there. They're both lazy and keep each other entertained so I have so much time throughout the day. I am very good with instructions and directions. if animal needs medicine I am great with that; my dog also takes medicine morning and night. If needing crating when I leave that's great too. I'm good with what ever you need my help for.

“She is amazing. It was a very last minute dog walk and she was more then willing to help out. My dog was able to pee and poo and let out some energy. She was understanding of some confusing things and helped out with supplying some fresh water to my dog. I am definitely rebooking her again!”


About: My husband and I have always had a soft spot for animals. Growing up around pets taught us both how to care for them with patience and love. Together, we’ve looked after dogs and cats of all ages—from playful puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch. We’re comfortable giving medications and sticking to routines. We’re calm, reliable, and always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Caring for pets fits naturally into our routine because my husband and I genuinely love spending time with animals. We both work weekdays from 8 AM to 3:30 PM (and until 12 PM on Fridays), so we’re available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. Our flexible schedule lets us give pets the attention and consistency they need—whether it’s for walks, playtime, check-ins, or overnight care. Whether in our home or yours, your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. My husband and I follow routines carefully, give lots of love, and let pets adjust at their own pace. We always respect your home and treat your pet like family.

“Cairo loves someone who understands her and gives her the space she needs! Can’t Thank Hayley enough for understanding that! Highly recommended her and definitely will be using her again and again!”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life, I adore taking care of them. Family has always relied on me to take care of their dogs when they’d go on vacation. That includes feeding, bathing, taking on walks and playing with them. I also have experience with puppies. I am home all hours throughout the week except for one I have some errands to run, I do this as a full time job so I’m always open! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do like taking dogs to the dog park to run out some energy or playing with them in my yard on a lead!!! They will always have someone to play with between my husband and I.

About: I’ve taken care of many many pets. From German shepherds, Labs, Boxers, Beagles, little dogs too, Pomeranians, Yorkies, Chihuahuas. I’ve raised many litters. Pets are not just animals, they are family. Your pet will be right at home in my care, comfort snuggles, playtime. I will care for them like they are my own. I work for myself, and at home so my hours are very flexible and I have plenty of time to play and care for your fur baby! In my home, I provide a calm, cozy, and safe environment where pets can relax and feel loved. I follow each pet’s usual routine, feeding schedules, walks, medication, and playtime to help them feel right at home. Pets have access to clean indoor space, comfy spots to nap, and a secure deck to sunbath, and plenty of land for leashed walks. In Clients’ Homes, I care for pets just like you would, keeping them comfortable, loved, and on their routine. I’m respectful of your home, follow all instructions carefully, and give updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: With 4 years of pet sitting experience, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs, cats, and even chickens! Every pet brings something special, and I treat each one like family.

About: I currently live on a farm with 2 dogs, 3 cats, with other typical farm animals. I have a huge love for all animals! I especially grew up raising dogs and started training our puppies at the age of 11. I am a Photographer in/around Knoxville and currently have a flexible schedule. I absolutely love all types on animals and I’m constantly outside with them. I live on a farm with many animals and taking care and spending time with them is the highlight of my day! I have experience in caring for many different farm animals, dogs, cats, hamsters, etc. I’m also able to follow special instructions for your pet like mix medicine in with food, or mix in wet food, etc.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I got my first dog at age 8! I’ve cared for my own as well as family and friends. I think of them as true family members. I have experience giving dogs injections/medications. I’ll also be available to play, feed, walk, take outside, and of course give all the treaties :) I’m an RN! I spend most of my off time with my dogs or other dogs <3 my husband also is home most days while in school and helps me with the dogs while I’m away. We’re a team! I have a fenced in backyard. It is rather small but allows our little corgi to freely roam off the leash. We have a little patio back there and often when it’s warm will sit outside and play with the dog. We allow our dog to be out and about in the home provided she is clean. She sleeps with us in the bed. We allow other dogs to stay out in the home to sleep if that is preferred and they are housetrained. If not, we do have a crate on hand we can use if away/sleeping. We have a couple neighborhoods nearby we do walk in.

“Erin did a wonderful job with my two fur babies. She showed up on time and they were excited to see her. She sent pictures of their walks and they looked very happy. Thank you Erin for responding so promptly and doing such a wonderful job taking care of my babies.”


About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all…especially the doggies! We have four rescue pups, a bunny and and a bearded dragon so we share the love with all different animals. I started a dog treat bakery business a couple of years ago that’s really starting to grow, so I’m now transitioning from the 9-5 job so I can pursue my passion for animals full time. I own my own dog bakery and work from home, so my availability is very flexible. We have an 11 acre farm with 2 separate “dog yards”. I will take your dog(s) for long walks and of course playtime if they like, give them food water and treats as needed, and I’m happy to accommodate with any special requests if your fur baby has a favorite activity, treat, or any special needs.

“Mary Grace watches my dog, Zoey, every time I am out of town. Zoey is never as excited to see anyone (including me) like she is when Mary Grace comes over to take care of her. Anything from a long weekend watching Zoey and my house, to a quick walk around my neighborhood when I am working late, I do not have to worry about Zoey being in good hands. I promise your fur baby will be in the best hands, and she sends pictures too so I know they're having a blast. Look no further than Mary Grace to trust with your sweet animals!”
