About: Previously owned my own dog for 10yrs, not ready for another pet at the moment but still want to get my animal fix! Experience caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, birds, and rodents. I have a very flexible work from home job so I am able to prioritize pet care! My place is pet friendly or I am able to travel as well if needed. I have a pet friendly apartment complex so animals staying with me will be no problem. If I need to travel to your home I am also happy to do so and follow your routine!

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid—whether it was walking the neighbors’ dogs, looking after family pets, or volunteering with rescues. What sets me apart is the deep joy I get from being around animals and the calm, patient energy I bring to every interaction. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a gentler pace and extra care. I'm comfortable with medication routines, basic training reinforcement, and building trust with nervous or shy pets. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my top priority, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m new to the area and currently looking for work, so pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I have plenty of time, flexibility, and energy to give pets the attention and care they deserve. It’s a great way for me to connect with the community while doing something I truly love. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I stick closely to their usual routines—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care they need—to help them feel comfortable and secure. I always keep water fresh, give lots of attention, and send regular updates so you can feel at ease while you're away. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priority!


“Kathy did an amazing job with drop in visits for my cat while I was away for a long weekend. I was provided with lots of photos and details. She went above and beyond my expectations, and I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Kathy!”


About: I’ve pet sat for over 5 years now. I’ve been trusted to watch dogs, cats, and more. I’m clean, punctual, and love playing with dogs! I work full time and am available to fit whatever your pet needs into my calendar. New to Nashville and available on weekdays and weekends I’ve pet sat for dozens of owners who have different routines with their pals. I enjoy taking them for walks, playing in or out of the house, and feeding them on a set schedule. I don’t invite people over so it will just be myself.

About: Hey there! I work from home with an incredibly flexible schedule, & am desperate for some time with dogs! I'm a huge animal person in general (with my own terribly behaved but very handsome cat, Tim Riggins.) I just moved from Chicago, & am looking for anything that helps me get out of the house more often- what better reason than pets!? I have been taking care of other peoples animals for 20 years- long time pet sitter with dozens of references, if necessary! I love giving animals as much attention as possible... I mean, have you seen them? THEY ARE ALL SO CUTE! I love doing anything that involves spending time with animals- playing, snuggling, walking- really anything at all! I'd love to help you, & your pet out! I work from home, with a super flexible schedule so I'm available to help pretty much whatever time(s) work best for you and your pet! I'm happy to do whatever it takes to keep your pet safe while they're in my care! As an anxious millennial, I worry about everything, which works to your advantage! I'm very thorough and use a lot of care with all things animal related.

“Alayna came over truly last minute when I was having both travel and dog sitter issues. My dog had been in her crate for almost 10 hours, and I was very stressed to say the least. Alayna’s communication was TOP NOTCH. She gave June so much love. June was so comfortable with her on her visit that by the end she was resting her head on Alayna. Alayna - we are both so grateful for your willingness to help. We can’t wait to use you again for hopefully a less time sensitive request.”


“Cait is the BEST!! She went above and beyond for our pups. She sent my husband and I updates after every visit. We will definitely be using her services again if we ever need someone to watch or check on our dogs. We are so glad we found someone who loves our dogs as much as us!”


About: I am a Nurse Practitioner here in Nashville and have two labs of my own. Looking to help out other dog parents with walks or drop ins on my days off! I have experience with bulldogs and other high need breeds. I have experience giving medications, etc. I love dogs of all kinds and would love to be able to provide care and companionship for yours while you're at work! I can’t do overnight right now due to my own pups. Could potentially consider daycare on Mondays or weekends depending on your dog’s temperament. Full day availability for drop ins and walks Sat-Mon. Also available Thursday afternoons. Could potentially consider daycare in my home depending on dog temperament and agreement with my dogs. Most services would be at your house. However, I do have a large fenced in backyard, if your dog was to come over. . .

“Jasmine is attentive, thoughtful, and communicative. She took wonderful care of my dog, adapted her schedule to the weather conditions (it was 90+ degrees when she was schedule to take my dog for a walk; she let her out for a few mins and came back later when it was cooler — that’s above and beyond). I plan to use Jasmine again and recommend her without any reservation. ?”


About: It can be intimidating to hire someone you don’t know to walk your dog, but I’m here to reassure you that I am kind, gentle & passionate about animals. I grew up with dogs, black lab/pit mix & a cockapoo - and have also pet sit many of dogs large to small. I currently live with roommates who own pets, a rescue dog & two cats, so I’m around pets often and pretty much a built in pet caretaker! I strive for the highest quality care and compassion for your furry loved ones. I’m a freelance worker in the music industry, and I’m trying to fill my schedule before my next gig! I’m pretty available and flexible- open for weekends and everything in between. I’ll care for your pets naturally, but will always follow your instruction on what is needed and wanted. Long walks, short walk, feeding specifications, crating or not, play-time, etc. It is my job to make sure your pet is taken of care at the highest quality & compassion.

About: I’m a Nashville based pet sitter with over 12 years of experience and am currently working private pet sitting jobs for friends and family. I have experienced with both small and large, as well as high and low energy dogs, as well as many cats and more exotic animals including fish,small mammals, and livestock. I have taken several veterinary care courses and have a cpr certification for cats and dogs. I am a lifelong animal lover and can’t wait to meet your pets! I am a small business owner and am able to make my own schedule for the most part, due to this I have plenty of time to check in, walk, feed, and play with pets! I MUST meet the owner/pet in a public location before services are rendering IF you are a first time customer. I also have emergency training to provide first aid to a cat or dog should the worst occur

About: I’m the youngest of 5 kids, raised with large breed dogs since age 0. I feel perfectly comfortable around dogs of any size; they seem to feel equally comfortable around me. I can handle large and physical dogs without concern. I also have a soft spot in my heart for elderly dogs. I will love your dogs and at the end of the day, I’m doing this because animals make me happy! I’m currently looking for full time work after spending the last 13 months traveling the world with my wife following our wedding in 2024. I am an experienced chemical engineer looking for a new role in that sector. I will treat your dog as if it’s my own - I love being around animals literally all the time and am pretty flexible temperamentally - I can take your dog on a speed walk or lazily meander; it’s all the same to me!

About: My fiance and I have cared for dogs for years, including our own and those of friends and family. I’ve also been professionally watching dogs for BarkSquad for the past 2 years, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, temperaments, and special needs. We have a playful and friendly 10-month-old Lab named Bobbie, who loves to run, play, and make new dog friends. We go on multiple walks per day and spend lots of time playing fetch in our large, fenced-in backyard. Both of us work from home and have flexible schedules, so your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise while staying with us! My partner and I both primarily travel for work, so when we're home pet-sitting we will have ample time to care for, walk, and play with a pup every day. We have a large, fenced in yard and live in a quiet residential neighborhood where we can go for walks daily. We can crate your dog if we leave the house throughout the day.

“I cannot recommend Lizzie highly enough! She took incredible care of my dog while I was out during the day, and I truly felt at ease knowing Derek was in such great hands. Lizzie took him out several times, ensuring he got plenty of exercise and attention. She is also punctual and reliable. It's clear that she genuinely cares about the well-being of the pets she looks after. Her warm and friendly personality made her the perfect fit. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to take care of your furry friend, Lizzie is the one! I’m so grateful for her help and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”
