Pet care experience

Energetic lover of furry friends 🥰

*NOW ACCEPTING SAME DAY BOOKINGS* Hello! I grew up with all sorts of fuzzy and scaly creatures and will love yours as if they were my own! Now, let's be honest, this economy is not the best. And besides a desire to pay off some debt, I am a working girl just trying to get outside more! In booking me for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays, be assured, it will be the highlight of my day, and I will be full of energy for your little buddies! A little about me if you would like to know more.... During the day, I work with our unhoused neighbors as a case manager, helping them get to medical, housing, and other appointments. Much of my job used to be outside, but in recent months, I have been inside much more often, hence my desire to get back into dog walking and drop-in visits. I do my best to update my schedule as my availability changes, so if there are ever any changes, you will be the first to know. In the time I am scheduled, I promise to take care of your fur babies to the best of my ability. I appreciate the opportunity, and I look forward to meeting you and your furry loved ones!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a preferred list of un-/leashed dog parks and spaces where your pets can socialize, but that will depend on your needs and desires for my service. I have experience house sitting for weeks at a time, as well as stop-in visits. Sadly, I don’t have the capacity to board pets at this time, but that may change in the future!

Schedule

I work 8a-5p as a health outreach case manager here in Knoxville, but the job is very flexible with breaks and WFH availability. With at least an hour's notice, I can be at your house for a walk/ drop-in visit!

It would be extremely helpful for me to know if your pup has any physical or mental disabilities. I don’t have any breed bias (love a bully and a pit), but if your pup has a tendency to pull, jump, act aggressively, or any quirks, it would be helpful to know them ahead of time.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
