Dog Walking in Knoxville

About: I have had dogs since childhood and have taken care of neighborhood pets since middle school. I can perform check-ins, take them on walks, administer medications, and monitor health issues. I am comfortable with pets of all ages and especially love seniors. I am a full time student and a part time vet assistant, but I always make time for your pets. I am available for check-ins throughout the week and overnights on the weekends I always triple check the house before leaving, monitor food and water intake, and ensure overall health. I love keeping pet parents updated, especially photos of their pets having fun.

About: I have 15 years of experience with caring for dogs, cats, and amphibians! I’m not much of a human person, but I will make an undeniable connection with your pet. I make sure your pet is comfortable with me before doing anything else. I have experience with oral medications for your pet and other accommodations they may have. Pet care always comes first for me. I will wake up from sleep at any given moment if it means your pet needs to go outside, be fed, or just a simple pat on the head. I want nothing but comfortability and care for your pet. I strive to make space and comfort for your pet. I love a good game of tug o’ war, or whatever your pet has in store for that day. My favorite thing to do to connect with your pet is a good walk. It builds trust and connection. I would love to share a bed with your pet as well if that’s what they prefer! (I will also crate them depending on how you see fit.)

About: Specifically I understand the needs of French Bulldogs in certain weather conditions. I also understand other short legged friends that need accommodations and have restrictions such as jumping off furniture or when playing not throwing things too high. I run my own business but have a flexible schedule. I am also a grad student who is about to graduate and will open more time in my schedule. Currently I am available various times during the week with a lot of availability on the weekends. My pup has accommodations in every room of the house. I make sure he has the right food bowls for his breed (elevated and tilted). He also has a variety of toys and doggy door to go sunbathe or potty anytime of the day. I understand cleaning up after our furry friends and making sure they have exactly what they need.

“First time using a rover for my boys and very pleased! One of my pups had a stomach issue while I was gone and Erynne went the extra mile to clean it up for me! Highly recommend!”

About: I have tons of experience dog walking for the humane society and even helped with training. I’m also happy to help take care of any animals during the day or night. I currently work and attend pellissippi. Most of my classes are online . So I am usually free to help take care of your pet! I have grown up with and worked with tons of cats and dogs so I’ve seen it all. I have experience giving meditation to even the most stubborn dogs. Please book with me!

About: I have taken care of pets in my neighborhood starting when I was in middle school! Since then, I’ve continued to pet sit whenever I can, from walks, to drop in visits, to staying overnight. I also occasionally volunteer with Young Williams Animal Shelter, where I participate in “Doggie Day Trips”, taking a dog who needs some extra love out of the shelter for the day! I have experience giving oral medication, as well as providing overnight senior dog care- not to mention some high energy dogs as well. I especially enjoy getting to know each dog’s different personality! I currently have a very flexible part-time work schedule, meaning I have plenty of time for your pups! I’m happy to help out with any last minute needs as well. Currently, I’m available to work anytime in the mornings and afternoons until around 3. After this, I am flexible with advance notice! I care for pets in their home to keep them comfortable and on their normal routine. I will follow all instructions given to me, and prioritize their safety and health. I will send plenty of photos so you can stay updated on how everything is going!

About: What is most important to me about dog sitting is that the dog has my maximum attention. They will always be walked, played with, and loved on. I have a golden doodle back home and my family likes to travel so she is left home with a sitter a lot. I definitely know how it feels to have your furry friend at home and you almost can’t enjoy your whole vacation because you’re worried about your dog. It is important to me that this doesn’t happen to you. You should enjoy your vacation while getting frequent updates on what your pupper is doing. I have had lots of experience with dog sitting. I am my neighbors number one choice when they go out of town or leave for a few hours. I love dogs of all ages and all sizes and taking care of them is something that I enjoy. I am a student at the University of Tennessee, and I live in the sorority house. I can definitely take care of your dogs and walk them and play with them, but they can’t stay with my in the sorority house. I am committed to being wherever late at night and early in the morning. I will make sure that the dog is always supervised when they are outside and inside. They will always be fed at certain times of the day. If they are with me at the sorority house, we have a huge grass area for your dog to play in.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every age since 14 years old. I have experience working for professional boarding services as well as for friends and family. I love dogs and would love to help care for yours! I'm currently a remote, online university student so my schedule is very flexible and open to any needed care arrangements. I can be there whenever your dog needs. I live in a house with my girlfriend who also works remotely and loves animals. I care about providing a healthy, safe, and enjoyable environment for your pet to stay in. They'll always be treated like family.

About: I grew up with dogs all around me. I started volunteering in animal shelters in high school and have since then worked in many vet hospitals. I will be attending vet school next year. Right now I’m looking to make a little extra money as I finish out college, and why not include my love for animals. I know a lot about animals, from their health to their emotional body language. I’m only in school at the moment so I have a lot of free time in my afternoon and evenings. I have mostly full availability on weekends as well. I’m will do whatever the client says for their fur babies, just as I would want my babies taken care of the way I like it.

About: I've always been dedicated to my pets growing up, and loved to meet with other's pets. While I'm relatively new to professional pet care, I've watched my family and friends' pets since my youth! I'm dedicated to communicating with pet parents while I care for their pets to make sure they have the best experience possible. I have experience administering oral (dogs) and transdermal/ear medications (cats). My schedule is currently open and flexible! I am a recent UTK grad, and although I have completed my studies as a college student, I am continuing work on one of my projects, and most of my work is from the computer, and am also partaking in a field internship a couple days out of the week. I am taking a break from other forms of work, so I'm very available to help you with your petsitting needs. I am a morning person and would work well with 'early bird' pets, but can be flexible if a pet needs a late night let out, medication, or other attention during late night hours. I share my house with roommates and their pets, so I'd prefer to watch your pet in your home unless I've gotten to know and built trust with your pet over several visits. I enjoy spending quality time with pets, including time together on the couch watching a show, napping together, or going out for strolls or to the park to relax outside.

About: I have loved animals since i was small. Friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets weather it’s walking, feeding or bathing. I am currently a stay at home mom who has plenty of time to look after your fur babies! I would love to get to know your animals and their needs to help make life a bit easier for all. I will be able to take care of your pets at your home. I will walk, feed and give your pets my attention. I love playing with animals.

About: Hello! I am Stephanie, a neuroscience/pre-med/psychology student at UTK! With my education, I apply it to my job as your caretaker. For as long as I can remember, we have always had fur babies in our house from cats to dogs to lizards and frogs! I remember every single baby having a significant contribution to my personality and who I am now. My current best friend is my cat Sashi! Sashi is a kitty I found as a stray around town. I took her in and the rest is history! Each pet is unique with their own quirks, personalities, and conditions. Sashi has separation anxiety, and I couldn’t imagine leaving her alone for a long period of time. I understand what it means to understand, take care of, and appreciate our fluffy friends that are in our lives! I have experience pet sitting animals of all kinds from farm animals, to big, playful dogs, to small, shy cats. I have taken care of for extended periods of time dogs with medical conditions such as seizures, paralysis, partial blindness, and behavioral issues with other dogs. I care for animals of all ages and sizes! I am very knowledgeable with cats in their behavior, body language, and physical well-being. I am very physically fit to be able to run or walk fast and long (no, seriously I can run 5 miles under an 8 minute pace) and lift a heavy amount of weight. No matter the task, I will have no problem! Besides occasional obligations from school, I have plenty of time every day to play, exercise, love on, and feed your fur-babies! I am available multiple hours throughout the day and can stay home full time around my school schedule! I provide services from your home for your pets comfort. I can drive pets if necessary. I will follow strict instructions, clean any mess, and become best friends with your companion. I provide all services from your home and can stay as long as needed that work within schedule! I request information about temperament with humans and other animals, potty training, temperament with car, any special quirks, allergies, any past trauma that is relevant, allergies, leash aggression, and any at home rules for furniture.

About: Too cold for a good walk? I have been a dog owner since my sophomore year of college! I love dogs and I will take time to recognize your dogs needs and give them my undivided attention. I love long walks, and I would love to have your dog join me! I am currently in school full time, but most of my classes are online! I have lots of free time during the day :) However, right now it’s winter break and I’m free all the time! My dog at home uses a harness and is crated, so i am completely comfortable using complex harnesses that your dog feels best in! I am also a pro fetch player

About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life and treat every animal as if they’re my own. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and cats with a wide range of personalities. I’m comfortable administering medication, handling anxious or senior pets, and following detailed feeding or training routines. I’ve volunteered with local shelters, so I understand how to build trust with animals who need extra patience and compassion. Reliability, empathy, and safety always come first. I’m currently a law student in downtown Knoxville, with classes Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. I’m available for pet care afternoons, evenings, and weekends. My mornings before class and nights are also flexible for quick drop-ins or feeding visits. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm and secure environment where cats feel at ease and cared for. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and routine to build consistency and trust. I carefully follow all instructions, including medication, feeding times, and favorite toys, and keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to make every visit safe, stress free, and filled with love

About: I have a genuine passion for caring for both dogs and cats, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals of all ages and personalities. I love being active and going on walks, and I’d be thrilled to have your dog join me! I’m currently enrolled in a doctoral program and complete my coursework from home, which gives me full control of my schedule and plenty of flexibility. This allows me to provide attentive, reliable care and accommodate your pet’s needs throughout the day. I am in school full time at home so my schedule is very flexible and likely can adjust to you and your pets personal needs! I have a friendly 30 pound dog who does well with others. I also have a yard for your pet to run and play in!

About: I love all animals, especially meeting new dogs! I am willing to travel around the Knoxville area as needed by the job. I'm very flexible and I love long walks at any speed your dog feels comfortable going at. I like exploring areas and love parks, especially finding new areas around the city. I am very patient with all ages of dogs and would love to get to know the personality and habits better. I prefer weekends or evenings for all visits due to my regular work schedule. Please feel free to contact me with any questions! I prefer mornings or weekend, but have some flexibility if needed and I am willing to work with you and your pet to make sure your pets gets all the attention it needs! I have a four year old cat who lives with me and therefore cannot have your pets over. I am willing to spend as much time as needed in your neighborhood ensuring your pet gets proper exercise.
