Dog Walking Lusk

About: I have 15 1/2 years experience working with animals professionally and caring for them. I am very familiar with the different personalities and needs that come with pets. I love to let dogs be dogs and live their best life! I offer baths and nail trims/nail grindings. I also have plenty of experience administering medication. I have 3 dogs of my own and 3 cats. I am comfortable with all sizes and breeds. I have lots of love and patience and understanding. My children may be with me sometimes but they are very good with animals and I’ve worked very hard to teach them all about dog body language and how to approach pets they are not familiar with. I look forward to loving your pet like my own! I just left my pet care related job of 15 1/2 years. I am now a stay at home mom and I homeschool my children. I’m always ready for a new client 🙂 We are very much animal people. Our pets are allowed on our furniture and my pets have their own space. Two of my dogs are in their senior years and can be a bit cranky at times but they are used to new pets coming into the home as we have had lots of rescues and fosters throughout their lives. My fenced backyard is connected to my garage which is open during warmer seasons and my pets love to spend time there. So if your pets likes outside time they will love it! You are welcome to bring bedding and toys to help your pet feel at home 💞 but it is not required. I would recommend bringing a crate if your pet is accustomed to using one, as it can often serve as a comfy safe place. Please do provide food from home 🙂

About: I’ve grown up around horses and large animal, I’ve always had dogs and cats in my home. I started pet sitting/house sitting around 2 years ago.

We have a 3 bedroom house with a big fenced in back yard! We also have almost 2 acres of property. We live in a great neighborhood for walks and your fur baby will have a blast!

About: I’ve always been a dog owner. Growing up in TN I’ve been around a lot of different breeds, all used to many different tasks. I understand that some pets need different assistance than other. I’m currently working Mon-Thur as a dental assistant. I’d love to incorporate dog walking into my daily routine of walking. I’d love to walk your dog for you! Following detailed instructions is easy for me. I will gladly assist with any special tasks that our needed for you pet. I want your pet to feel happy and safe.

About: The people closest to me know me as their go-to pet sitter for any and all occasions! I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I spent years volunteering at animal shelters, walking dogs and socializing both dogs and cats. I have been pet sitting for over a decade, and come with excellent references. I have strong empathy for animals, and I'd love to become your most reliable pet-sitter! I am available most mornings, days, and evenings. I am open to boarding if the situation is a good fit. My schedule is flexible so please feel free to just ask, I am happy to try and accommodate! I have a small fenced yard and screened in back porch, living in a very walkable neighborhood. I am respectful of any and all environments, responsible, and reliable. You can count on me to ensure your pets needs are met and then some, your space is left tidy, as well as ensuring your home is secure post-check in.

About: I love animal behavior and training. I personally trained our service dog, Crew. He goes just about everywhere with us- trails, stores, restaurants, hotels, airplanes. In my neighborhood growing up, people would call me whenever they went away and wanted animal care. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, and rabbits. I had my Siberian husky for 16 great years. I loved training her. I considered stuffing pillows with the volume of fur I brushed out of her coat! I can help with puppy and obedience training. I can help with advanced canine skills, including scent work, service work, and public access. I can administer medication. I can bathe and brush. I can play and have a great time with your pet! Something else? Just ask me! My wife and I keep a remote work situation which enables flexibility. Let me know what your specific needs are and I’ll be happy to coordinate with you. Consistency is key for animals. I aim to maintain the status quo that your pets are used to in their home. I welcome owner instructions and preferences. If crating a dog, I prefer to do so after exercise and potty.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a child. I cared for my own dog for seven years, which included intensive senior care. Several friends have asked me to watch their dogs for them, which I’m always happy to do! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to spend time with your pet! I’m home most of the week, and love getting outside and taking walks, so I’d be happy to spend time indoors or outdoors playing with your pet! I have a large yard I can walk your pet around, as well as quick access to multiple walking trails at local parks. I have two large dog cages if necessary and a couple dog beds as well.

About: I have had dogs in my family since I was born and I absolutely love all dogs great and small. I have cared for dogs from puppies to seniors and even a cat (shocking I know)! I currently work from home and I am able to give great attention to your pet. If you need any urgent care, just let me know. I like to let pets warm up to me, I don’t like to try and pet them or hold them - I think it’s better to let them learn to like you. Once they’ve accepted me, I’m their best friend!

About: Hi I have lived with pets my entire life and have worked for many years in Germany doing dog sitting. Pets are becoming more and more important parts of our lives and I'm happy to ensure that yours is as comfortable as possible. I am currently working piecemeal for an AI company, which leaves my schedule extremely flexible and I can work in any place that has WiFi. (I'm very used to cleaning dog hair out of my laptop) I have a basic sense for how pets should be treated (basically making their life as comforting and stress free as possible). This means being dominant in unusual situations and relaxed in normal ones. I love to watch animals explore and be happy. A dog sleeping after a good play session is the best experience

About: One of my cats has separation anxiety and chronic health issues, so I know how hard it can be to travel while worrying about your pets. My goal is to provide an enriching but calming experience for your pets while you’re away so you can have peace of mind. I have owned pets since I was a kid, and have also spent over a decade riding and caring for horses. I have experience administering medication to cats, and am meticulously observant about any behavioral changes. My husband and I own our own company, and I work from home full-time, so my schedule is extremely flexible. This also allows me to bring my work to your house and spend extra quality time with your pets. My goal is to provide an enriching but calming experience for your pets while you’re away so you can have peace of mind while you travel. I have experience giving medications to both dogs and cats, and I monitor pets closely for any behavioral changes. I also want your pet to have an enjoyable, stress-free experience - wether they need cuddles or play (and hopefully both!) I am happy to cater to their individual needs.

“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!”

About: I’ve taken care of newborn puppies/kittens, all the way to 18 year old cats and cranky chihuahuas. I can give meds (subq shots or just pills!), I’m okay with picky eaters and love making fancy little meals. (I’ve had clients raw feed their dogs/cats or just need to add many supplements/powders, etc!). I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid but I have professional care for 3 years, 1.5 year in a boarding/vet facility, and 1.5 year at a shelter. I’m currently unemployed, I can make pet/house care as a 24/7 thing if needed. I do plan on getting a part time job soon but it shouldn’t bother my plans for animal care. As i don’t offer my own home for your pets, I will gladly come over to take your animals out in their own comfortable home. This personally makes me (and your pets!) a LOT more comfortable. This gives them more confidence and socializes them too! I can also offer nail trims and basic bathing as well (I can bring my own shampoo and brushes, or you can offer yours!)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets..." I am currently working just instacart so i have plenty of time to care for your furry friend. I genuinely love animals and have taken care of so many I have a fenced in yard and multiple dogs and cats of my own and i have worked in a. Animal hospital as a tech

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, I know the importance of them and what they bring to a family setting. They are a part of the family and I treat every dog I come across like family. I have worked with senior, disabled, police dogs, and dogs that need medical attention. I have worked for a few different kennels that have taught me beyond what I thought I would ever know on how to treat, care, and manage dogs. I have a very up beat personality and I have a very calming side, so if your dog loves to run - I will run & if your dog loves to nap - I will nap. I hope I get the opportunity to love and care for your pup! This is my full time job, I stay home with the dogs or take them to the dog park, we also go on a lots of walks. I care for your fur baby as you would, a home away from home if you will. My dog sleeps in the crate at night, if yours does too, great! If not, even more snuggles for me!

About: I have cared for, trained, boarded, and stayed in homes to watch animals throughout the last 30 years in the United States and abroad. I will value you and your animals and expect that you value my time. Rover takes 25% and doesn't take care of sitters. That's why my rates are high. Pet care is one of the primary focuses of my life. I train dogs and have several! My whole family trains dogs including my elementary daughter and son. When I care for someone's pet I am especially attentive to their expectations and household preferences. I will learn from and value all communication, and follow instructions very carefully. I like to provide pictures. I really like to form relationships, but I am also available as much as possible to fill in when someone really needs reliable last minute help.

“Kiara was great! She was RIGHT on time and took Penny on a night long walk! Penny is usually a dawdler so I was surprised she got her to walk for so long! The must have been having fun! When I got home, Penny was so happy, and I loved the pics the Kiara sent! My little girl looks so happy!! Would absolutely recommend and will absolutely be booking again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years and truly love being around them! Before moving to Chattanooga, I cared for the same family’s dog for over two years, building a strong bond with both the pup and the family. I’ve also worked as a nanny, where I was responsible not only for the children but also for their family dog—making sure they were walked, fed, and loved. I now have a puppy of my own, so I understand the daily needs, attention, and patience dogs require at every stage. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family! I work during the weekdays, but I’m fully available in the evenings and at night for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I’m also completely free on weekends. In my home, pets get a safe, clean, and cozy space with lots of love and attention. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible. If I’m in your home, I make sure your pet is comfortable and cared for while respecting your space. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages!
