Dog Walkers in McCookville, TN

“Susan took great care of our pup Fozzie while we were visiting the Gatlinburg area. She was communicative, flexible, and patient with us figuring out our schedule, and she was wonderful with Fozzie. We got photos during her visit and had peace of mind that all was well while we were out exploring the area.”

“We are so very pleased and thankful for Christina! She was available on such short notice for multiple random visits and very dependable.

About: I have experience with all different types of pets and have paid experience the past six years. I will make sure your pet stays on their routine and feels happy and loved while you’re away. During sits my wife tends to join me. She’s also very experienced with animals and has farm and exotic animal experience. If this is something you are not comfortable with, I am happy to adjust this. I am taking some time to start my own business with my wife. So there’s plenty of time and attention to go around. Most of my work can be scheduled around Rover. If I am housesitting however I may have to leave for a few hours at a time but usually no longer than 3 or 4 so that your pet gets the maximum amount of attention possible. Safety is always a top priority and your pups will always be kept on the same type of schedule they have when they are with you to ensure they aren’t thrown off their routine when you return.

About: I was raised in a household where dogs and cats were always part of the family, which helped me develop a deep passion for their well-being from an early age. Over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience in caring for both species, understanding their unique needs and personalities. My knowledge extends to administering oral medications safely and effectively, always ensuring the animal is comfortable and stress-free during the process. I make it a priority to provide plenty of comfort and affection, as well as engaging playtime tailored to each pet’s preferences, helping to keep them both happy and healthy. This lifelong experience has made me attentive, patient, and enthusiastic about supporting the health and happiness of dogs and cats alike. With my flexible schedule, pet care easily integrates into both my daily and weekly routines. I am able to adjust my availability to meet the needs of each animal, ensuring meals, medication, exercise, and affection are provided at consistent times that suit their habits. This flexibility allows me to devote focused attention during morning, afternoon, and evening hours, whether it’s feeding and playtime or walks and grooming. On a weekly basis, I plan for deeper cleaning and enrichment activities, such as refreshing litter boxes, rotating toys for stimulation, and scheduling longer walks or social outings for dogs. My adaptable approach ensures that every pet receives the care and companionship they deserve, regardless of my other commitments, making their well-being a top priority throughout each day and week. Providing a safe environment for the animals is fundamental to their well-being and peace of mind. This includes ensuring that the living spaces are free of hazards, such as toxic plants, accessible electrical cords, or small objects that could be swallowed. Safety measures like secure fences for dogs and proper window screens for cats help prevent accidents and escape attempts, allowing pets to relax and feel protected in their surroundings. The importance of a safe environment extends beyond physical safety—it also reduces stress and anxiety, which can impact both behavior and health. When pets know their space is secure, they are more likely to thrive, exhibit positive behaviors, and form trusting bonds with their caretaker. By prioritizing safety, I create a nurturing atmosphere where every animal can enjoy comfort, companionship, and the freedom to play and explore without worry.

About: I’ve worked with dogs for years, starting as a dog walker in Boston MA to then owning my own pet-related business, including Lexi’s Lucky Pup K9 Care in Manchester, NH (2023) and Lexi’s Paws & Peace Grooming in Pawtucket, RI (2025). I have experience with all different personalities, breeds, and energy levels. I’m very patient, attentive, and good at reading animals, especially dogs that are anxious, shy, or high energy. I prioritize safety, comfort, a low-stress environment, and of course making sure pets have fun! I also work in senior caregiving, so being responsible, communicative, and detail-oriented comes naturally to me. I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pets, and I try to make owners feel as comfortable as possible through updates, photos, and consistency. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can usually accommodate different routines, potty schedules, walks, and drop-off/pick-up times. I currently live full-time in an RV in a quiet campground setting - and yes, I know that probably sounds unexpected at first (e) — but it's actually a calm, nature-filled environment with a fully fenced-in yard and lots of supervised outdoor time. Pets are welcome to relax wherever they're most comfortable, whether that's on the couch, on my bed, in a dog bed, outside in the fenced yard, or even lounging outside with me on the lawn chairs getting fresh air. I work from home, so pets get lots of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, outdoor time, and interaction throughout the day.

About: I have taken care of dogs in many sizes. From having a 6lb Pomeranian to having a 130lb chocolate lab! I can walk, feed and entertain pets of all kinds. I am able to administer medication to dogs, and ensure they receive the treatment needed. I work during the week full time but I am available in the afternoons on Friday and all day on Saturdays/Sundays. My schedule follows the school system calendar therefore, I have many breaks in between. I have the months of June/July off and am available all day those days. I will make sure all requests are fulfilled and that all pets are happy and healthy. I understand how precious pets are and will ensure that they are well taken care of. I will send pictures and videos throughout my visit reassuring you that your pet is in good hands. My dogs are my family and I couldn’t imagine treating them as anything less.

About: I am older. I have lots of life experience with my furbabies and know how important they are. I want to love your babies just like you do! I would like to do this during the weekend as I work full time during the week. Some days during the week may be adjusted, but not often. We live on 10 acres and way off the road so they love roaming the countryside with us! It is a join to watch them play

About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs for a couple years and watch my friends pets when needed. Would love to help with everyone else and make sure that the animals are taken care of! I am available almost every day all day besides the job I work at night! I make sure everyday to give my dog some exercise and play with her before I head off to my job. She gets fed twice a day and I also work with my dog daily to train her. I have a fenced in yard to keep the dogs safe and still go out and have some playtime. I have one friendly small dog who loves to play and would keep the others company.

“She was excellent. Could not ask for more”

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of pets throughout my life and often helped friends with theirs as well. Animals have always been a big part of my world, and I truly love spending time with them. I’d be honored to give your pet the same love and care I give my own, and I hope to be the one you trust with your best friend! I am currently unemployed so I am almost always available. I have a dog of my own that I will have to go home and see sometimes if I am house sitting. Just give me a message and we can discuss details and figure out what works best for both of us. At my home, pets are treated like part of the family with lots of love, playtime, and snuggles. I do my best to keep their routine close to what they’re used to so they feel comfortable and happy. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walks, meds, or just extra belly rubs to make sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away.

About: I come from a household of many animals! I can care for animals who need medication or special attention. I care for things such as reptiles, fish, and birds! I currently work part-time and go to Walters State full time! Pet care fits very well into the free time that I’m not busy caring for my animals or doing school. At my home we have a fenced in yard for our dogs and cats as well as a fully indoor cat! I make sure to feed my animals the appropriate amount as recommended for their needs!
