Dog Walking Lakesite

About: Hi! I’m Keira, a 21 year old lifelong dog lover from Chattanooga (Soddy-Daisy/Lakesite area) who’s completely obsessed with giving dogs the best care possible! I only take one house-sitting booking at a time so I can give your home and your pets my complete love and attention. Your fur babies will be my whole world while you’re away — I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and very loved every single day! I had the privilege of caring for my soul dog Charley (a mini schnauzer) for almost 10 years. During that time I learned so much about loving and caring for dogs — including giving daily subcutaneous fluids when he needed them. Because of him, I’m especially gentle and patient with senior dogs, but I also adore puppies and their endless energy! I’m very loving, attentive, and flexible with scheduling. Whether you need daily walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your fur baby will get lots of cuddles, playtime, and genuine affection while you’re away. I’d be honored to care for your dog (or cat! I’m very good with cats although I do have fewer years of experience with them!) Feel free to message me with any questions 💕 I’m currently between jobs so all of my focus is on animal care! I have a super open schedule so your furry friend will get so much attention and love!! I can’t offer care from my home, I live with too many people and would hate to stress out your pet, but I can come and stay in your home, whether it be overnight or drop-ins. I’m very good about feeding on time, watching the water bowl, giving frequent potty breaks, and taking a few walks throughout the day. I will also adhere to any special requests you may have for your pup!

About: I'm a life-long pet owner and have cared for every type of domestic pet you can imagine. I am comfortable with large breed dogs and high energy breeds. I have an Australian Shepherd who can High-5 and an anxious rescue mutt who is afraid of one of our cats (I have 5!) I love animals and look forward to keeping your pet happy and healthy while you're away. I am a stay-at-home mom so I can flex to meet you and your pet's schedule and I have plenty of time to spoil your pet. Making sure you're comfortable having me in your home is a top priority. I know how stressful it can be to have a sitter and want you to know your pets are safe with me.

About: I have spent the last 12 years caring for several families’ pets. I have spent time caring for small dogs as well as larger more active dogs. I have cared for many dogs with specific eating routines and meds. I have cared for multiple dogs in one house as well as a mix of dogs and cats together. I love making new fur friends and getting them outside to play and exercise. I have a small (10lb) dog named Joy who loves making friends and has come with me for many of my sitting times but in her older age she stays home in her comfy bed. Most of my experience is with dogs but I have cared for cats and have one of my own. My cat’s name is Chaos, so yes, I live with Joy and Chaos in my life. Chaos has been apart of my family for 9 years now. I will be in Cody, Wyoming for several months and would love to be of service to you. Please don’t hesitate to reach out. Joy and Chaos are not with me. I am always respectful and careful in everyone’s home and with all animals. I understand that animals are our family members and I show them the love and care they need.

“Angela is super professional and very responsive. She took great care of our dogs!”

About: We are a dog loving family. All of our pups are rescues and well trained. They all have super fun outgoing personalities just like there human family! We have a 9 year old son who LOVES dogs and plays well (and appropriately) with them. We do also have a 1 year old in the home. We have a nice open area with a 6 foot tall fenced yard with shady areas and plenty of running room, this yard is treated regularly for pests ! I’ve also “human mommied” three successful puppy litters so I have a good grip on helping with those! Also, we do have availability for a secluded doggo if needed, if they are more of a lone rider. Due to our home layout, we have plenty of space to make a individual play and stay areas! We do have dogs! All three of ours are trained rescue mixes. Blu is our oldest, he’s roughly 7 He is a blue eyed lab/hound mix. Well mannered and trained. Our next oldest is Zeus. He is roughly 5. Super laid back and quiet lab/terrier mix. Our newest baby is a 4 year old italian greyhound and dachshund mix. He thinks he is fully grown and plays amazingly with the big dogs!  All three dogs are “party animals” 😂 love love hanging with other pups of all shapes and sizes! We have a large fenced yard (6 foot tall) A large sunroom with lots of light and fun toys! We love to play fetch on pretty days and on rainy days we have tug-a-war wars with the resident champ Zeus 😂 We do require kenneled bedtime due to our baby co-sleeping at the moment. We have a flexible schedule, so we enjoy having the pups to fill our downtime. Plus our babies really enjoy having visitors to play with! Casey is a stay at home mom and Luigi is in office daily. We stay strict to follow all parents guidelines for keeping their babies on their regular schedule. We think it’s most important we keep the babies on the regular schedule/daily happenings

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.

About: I've always been the neighbor to care for neighbors pets when they are out of town. I've owned various breeds of dogs for 42 years and cats for 40 years. I love animals! I can help with the needs of your bird as well. I love overnights. Being retired, my schedule is flexible just let me know when you need me! The schedule is flexible I try not to work with animals after 10pm I can board pets in my home or yours. Wherever the pet is more comfortable. Pets are more "relaxed" in their own homes, but mine is available.

“JaNiya was amazing with my dog, Goose! I can always tell if he’s been well taken care of by how calm he is when I return from work. She even gave some love to my cat, too!”

I've spent years caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and support. My background includes working in a veterinary clinic, training in pet CPR, and caring for my own beloved animals through every stage of life. As a homesteader and animal lover, I'm also comfortable caring for chickens, small farm animals, cats, dogs, and other household pets.

When I care for your animals, I treat them as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and respect. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry (or feathered!) family members. I look forward to becoming one of your pet's favorite people! Because I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule and am able to provide care throughout the day. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, medication administration, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Every animal is unique, so I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special needs before care begins. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or providing drop-in visits, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress and help them feel secure. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise requirements, and household rules. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, and overall well-being so that any concerns can be addressed promptly. As someone with veterinary clinic experience and pet CPR training, I understand the importance of safety and preparedness. I am experienced with pets of all ages, including puppies, senior pets, and those requiring extra patience or specialized care. I also have experience caring for cats, dogs, chickens, and small homestead animals. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship, I will provide attentive, loving care tailored to their individual needs. You can expect regular updates, photos, and communication so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in caring and capable hands.

About: I have always been an animal lover since a very young age. I always had pets growing up and helped with their care. I worked as a grooming assistant while I was in college and absolutely loved it. I could provide one on one care for that animal and love. I sometimes wish I would had went into that field of work, because I definitely have that passion. I provide a laid back environment for the pet, so they can be comfortable. I encourage bringing their toys and maybe a blankie so they have something familiar. I enjoy going on walks and playing fetch with them. I would make a great sitter or walker for your beloved pet. Thank you! My schedule as of right now is mostly flexible. I work for myself so I am in and out throughout the day. The longest I’m gone at a time is usually under 4 hours. I have several animals at my home currently so staying at your home to care for your baby is preferred. So let’s get you booked!!

About: I’ve taken care of animals most of my life. I’ve also been trained at Mckamey and know how to lovingly care for your fur baby! I’m currently working some from home but have a lot of free time :) I can come with not much notice and will love cuddle your fur friend or keep them entertained if they don’t like to be snuggled! You can trust me in or outside of your home! Your pet will be my first priority and I’m happy yo do walks and frequently take outside

About: I have grown up with cats, dogs, and horses my entire life. I had a 7lb miniature pinscher and sadly she passed of old age after 16years of life with her! I am extremely overprotective and careful with all animals and make sure they feel safe and loved! I have a huge fenced in yard and a perfect neighborhood for long walks with little to no traffic. I currently am in between jobs so I am available all times of the day/night to take care of all the cute animals you need! I live in a secured building where there is no chance of any fur babies escaping. I have a sweet small dog that gets along with all animals - mainly she just sleeps all the time! I have room for crating your pets if necessary.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals. I have grown up with 2–3 dogs at a time throughout my life, as well as cats, so I am very comfortable with the daily responsibilities that come with pet care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have pet-sat for my neighbors' animals on numerous occasions, giving me experience with different personalities and routines. While I am not a professional trainer, I have taught my own dogs basic commands and good habits. I understand the importance of being patient, attentive, and dependable, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I am currently home for the summer and have open availability. I am about to be a senior at Michigan State University, but while I am home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Whether it's morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or check-ins throughout the day, I am able to be reliable and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them is something I genuinely look forward to. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so their pets feel comfortable and secure. I ensure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and companionship. I also make sure the home stays clean and tidy by cleaning up after the pets and keeping their living areas organized. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I carefully follow any specific instructions provided by the owner and provide updates when requested. My goal is to make sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.

“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.”
