About: I’v taken care of dogs since I was old enough to be responsible for them, around age 12. I was in charge of feeding our family dogs, walking them, and exercising them through intentional playtime. We had 3 dogs then, and now we own two. I enjoy going on long walks and hikes, and often take my dogs on hikes. I also enjoy a casual run, and I am happy to take dogs on runs as well! I just graduated from college, and I have a couple weeks available until I begin my job. I will start working as a Firefighter for the Franklin fire department on June 8. Once that starts, I will be available on most weekends and evenings to care for your pet! I am happy to walk or run your pet! I also offer pet-sitting. As a responsible student, with several years of families trusting me with babysitting, I can give you confidence that your home and pet will be cared for as if they were my own.

About: I have been a lifelong dog owner, caring for multiple breeds including dachshunds, chocolate lab, beagle mixes, Doberman, Rhodesian ridgeback mix, and mini schnauzer. I have hands-on experience providing end-of-life care for a senior dog with osteosarcoma, demonstrating compassion and patience in difficult situations. Currently, I care for a 5-year-old neutered Doberman and an 8-year-old spayed Mini Schnauzer. My work-from-home schedule allows me a flexible schedule for your pet’s supervision. This deep personal experience, combined with my flexible availability ensures professional and cozy care tailored to each dog's needs. Since I work from home, taking care of dogs fits perfectly into my day. I’m able to check in on them frequently and give them plenty of breaks and playtime. I make sure they get regular exercise and lots of affection between work tasks. Because I’m home almost 24/7, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit each dog’s unique needs and routines, making sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away. I ensure that all dogs are treated with love and respect. Letting them know they’re safe and that everything is okay while their humans are away is of utmost importance to me.

Shannon is great, responsive, timely and kind. She made time to meet my baby and was patient with her. If they had more time together they would have been besties. Unfortunately our schedules didn’t out for weekly walks. However she still took time out of her day when I needed her to come and walk her. I was very grateful for that. I highly recommend Shannon, she will take great care of your babies.

Haley came to my home for a meet and greet before her walk with Spirit. She was very sweet and answered all of my questions and made me feel at ease that my pup was in good hands. And he was. She communicated very well if anything occurred. I would definitely let her walk Spirit again.

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, including dogs of various breeds, cats, and even exotic pets like reptiles and birds. My skills include administering both oral and injectable medications, caring for senior pets with mobility challenges, and providing engaging activities to keep pets happy and healthy. I’m also on the app “Wag” if you want a link to see my reviews, ensuring your furry friend is in safe hands. I believe in treating every pet like family, offering personalized care tailored to their needs while keeping owners updated for complete peace of mind. I am in school, however it’s remote so I’ll have plenty of time with your pet! I usually study 1-3 hours a day if possible When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine to ensure they feel relaxed and secure. At my home, I provide a pet-friendly environment with a safe, enclosed space where pets can roam and play. I ensure all pets have access to fresh water, food, and regular bathroom breaks. For cats, I make sure their litter boxes are clean and accessible, while dogs receive regular exercise and attention, including walks or playtime. I also offer special care for pets with medical needs, such as administering medications as required. In a client's home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. I make sure to respect the home environment by keeping everything tidy and secure, and I send regular updates and photos to keep owners informed. Whether in my home or theirs, I’m committed to creating a loving, safe, and stress-free experience for the pets I care for.

About: I currently work full time but from the comfort of my own home. I always stress about finding a reliable sitter when I am away and thought why not help relieve that stress for other pet parents. I worked at a boarding facility as an operational manager for 2 years and have experience with all types of pups, including providing medications, special diets, etc. I also have two pups of my own and one has liver complications and the other one has entered old age, so fully understand the importance of care. They are my world. I value creating an environment that suites all fur babies. If yours needs a space of their own, I can make that happen in my home. I have tons of space and am happy to make sure your fur babies are comfortable. I have two dedicated adult bedrooms I use for boarding. Pets well have a warm bed and area that is all theirs. Of course they well have full access to the entire house but I all pups need their own space. I have a fenced yard with a tall privacy fence so potty breaks are secure and will be fully supervised. I want all pups comfortable. I can offer walks throughout the day for additional charge. My time is very flexible. I create my own schedule at my job so I can make anything happen with proper notice. I’m open to help whenever and wherever. I have two friendly pups who love other dogs. I have been trained in dog behavior and feel confident to know when a dog needs a break, uncomfortable, etc.. I’m quick to react and pay attention at all times.

About: I am 24 years old and I have had all kinds of pets ranging from Rabbits and fish, lizards and lobsters, cats and dogs, lions tigers and bears...well...maybe not those last three! But I have cared for animals my entire life and I am excited to make a career out of it! I am ecstatic to help you establish and maintain and wonderful environment for the furry members of your family! Pet care is a full-time job for me! I can be available five-days a week, until somewhat late into the evening, and my schedule is somewhat flexible when it comes to spending EXTRA time getting fuzzy cuddles ;) I allow pets to decide what we do. If they'd rather lay down and take a nap, I can step back and let them be independent, but if they get the zoomies I am eager to let them get that energy out. I also enjoy using training time as a means of giving and receiving pet attention, making basic training fun and exciting for the pet.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and breeds since I was 11. I have worked with senior dogs, puppies, and all the ages in between. I have 3 dogs of my own, as well as a gecko and fish. I have also worked with ducks/birds. I have worked with cats as well and love all of them!! I will be going into my freshman year of college at Lipscomb University, so I will have a lot of free time to see any and all animals! I always follow every rule provided about your animal. I know the importance of routine, comfort, and stability. I will ensure each pet gets the adequate exercise, food, and love desired by the owner.

About: I love animals, I have since as long as I can remember. I was born and raised in an animal household so understanding animals, communicating with them, and tending to them has become second nature. I have pet sat and helped handle animals at the Nashville Zoo as a volunteer during my high school years and have watched over friends, family, and neighbors animals for around a decade now. I know how important family is and how pets are family that just so happens to walk on four legs for all of their lives instead of just their infant years. I am currently on staff at my church right now as outreach and ministry team so my times I am unavailable are Tuesday's, Thursday's, and Friday's after 5:00pm. I go to church on Sunday mornings but I can always watch virtually so I can tend to pets overnight. I care for animals as I would care for myself I believe in all life is precious and that any life created is family to me which most certainly includes pets. My approach comes from being gentle, reacting/reading body language, minding my emotions and actions because animals are sensitive to those, and just showering them with love the way THEY want to receive it not how I want to give it. It is their comfort and wellbeing over mine and I will do everything in my power to ensure a healthy environment for everybody's animals.

About: I’ve worked in a vet's office and taken care of pretty much all animals over the years. I grew up showing horses competitively on a small farm with chickens, ducks, cattle, rabbits, pigs, dogs, and cats. Since then I’ve owned and cared for miniature donkeys, standard poodles, Weimeraners, Dalmatians, cats, and chickens. As long as it’s not a reptile, I’m game. I love those who need something extra that your normal pet sitter may not be comfortable with - and I also love all the others who don’t need anything special! I have an extremely flexible schedule and can work around pretty much whatever you need. One thing’s for sure - I will be honest with you. If I can’t do it, I will tell you. I will come to your home and care for your pets just as you do! I don’t need a pre-visit (unless you would like that) - you can show me by FaceTime or you can leave me a note. I am also more than happy to have a pre-visit! I like to communicate with you while you’re away so you know how things are going at home.

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats the last 7 years. In a boarding and clinic environment. I have experience with every size dog and cat as well as medicine administration (oral or injection). I’m usually home with my fur babies unless I have to run errands. I might be gone up to 4 hours. When boarders are in my home I try to stay with them more until comfortable. Then if they are social can introduce my pack and slowly meet one by one. Eventually everyone will be able to be out and play. I have a fenced in front yard and fur babies to play with your pets. We have a variety of temperaments and ages, based on your pups body language I would probably have the right fit for them :) or they can also have alone time and be rotated out to avoid other dogs. I crate all my dogs at night before bed. I have cameras around my yard and outside the house for security as well.

About: I have worked with newborn to senior pets since I was five years old, and I am a very active person that enjoys playing with furry friends. I plan on working in healthcare in the future so I prioritize caretaking. I am taking one online college course during the summer and I am a part-time tutor so I will have a lot of free time this summer for pet sitting! In my home, pets have a clean, cozy space, regular walks or playtime, and lots of love and attention. I keep routines consistent and follow any instructions you provide. In your home, I will respect your space, stick to your pet’s usual schedule, and make sure they feel secure in their own environment. I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away!

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every animal like they’re my own. I’m not just there to “watch” pets—I build trust with them, learn their personalities, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have a special passion for working with animals of all ages, including energetic puppies and gentle senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent, helping reinforce basic training like potty routines, simple commands, and good behavior. With senior pets, I’m extra attentive to their needs, whether that means giving medication on schedule, moving at a slower pace, or just providing calm companionship. I’m also very responsible and detail-oriented, so you can count on me to follow instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and communicate with you regularly. Most importantly, I truly love animals, and that shows in the way I care for them every single day. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get consistent feeding times, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. On a daily basis, I set aside dedicated time for each pet so they never feel rushed or overlooked. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care, I make sure their routine stays as normal and comfortable as possible. Throughout the week, I stay flexible and organized so I can adjust to different pets’ needs—especially for things like longer walks, extra playtime, or special care for puppies or senior pets. Overall, caring for animals isn’t something I try to “fit in”—it’s something I build my schedule around because it’s important to me and something I truly love doing. 🐾 I provide loving, attentive care whether pets are in my home or in their own familiar environment. My goal is always to keep them comfortable, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly space where animals can relax and feel secure. I stick to their usual feeding schedules, make sure they get plenty of exercise and playtime, and give lots of affection and supervision. I keep the environment clean, safe, and stress-free so they can settle in easily. In my client’s home, I focus on maintaining the pet’s normal routine since that’s where they feel most comfortable. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, walks, medications, and any special care needs. I also spend quality time with them so they don’t feel lonely, whether that’s playing, going for walks, or just sitting with them for companionship. No matter the setting, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel loved, cared for, and secure while you’re away. 🐾

About: I have hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals at every life stage—from newborns to seniors. This allows me to confidently handle everything from playful, high-energy pets to those needing slower, more attentive care.

My availability is flexible, and when I accept a booking, I am fully committed to being there exactly when your pet needs me.

This helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling secure while you’re away. In your home, I follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible—feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I spend quality time with them so they feel cared for, not just “checked on.” For outings, I make sure they get safe, structured exercise and enrichment tailored to their energy level and personality. I’m very attentive to behavior, surroundings, and safety at all times. My goal is to provide consistent, loving care while keeping your pet happy, relaxed, and in their normal routine.
