About Tracie D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I currently parent two dogs, and they mean the world to me. True extended family members. Your pets will be treated with the care and safety I show my own. I am always reviewing safety protocols for changing weather conditions, monitoring animals during hot and cold weather to ensure they are comfortable and safe. I avoid all people and other animals while out on walks. Safety and comfort is very important to me. In my pet care approach and my relationship with my new fur friends, I’ve been described as sweet, attentive, loving, and gentle by pet parents but am willing to adjust to a “tone” your pooch might recognize for communication purposes. During our meet and greet we will talk about how I can communicate with your pets. Please read my reviews! I can happily provide more references upon request from pet parents that I continue to service in our area. Looking forward to your message for a meet and greet to see if we are all a good fit for one another.

Please disclose any recent symptoms or known exposure before booking. *Solo Occupancy: To ensure a calm, safe, and consistent environment for the pets in my care, I only accept bookings where no additional guests, housemates, or third parties will be staying in or present in the home during the stay. *this is for vacationers/caregiving role, not dog walking/enrichment purposes
A typical day
Every pet receives individualized care based on their unique routine, energy level, and personality. My goal is to maintain a familiar, stress-free environment while providing attentive supervision, exercise, enrichment, meals, fresh water, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys active play, leisurely walks, or simply having a calm presence nearby, I tailor my care to their needs while keeping you updated with regular photos and communication. My focus is always on safety, comfort, consistency, and providing the highest level of in-home care possible.

Pet care experience
Hi there, I’m Tracie. A Nashville native that moved to the Historic district in downtown Gallatin a few years ago. I’ve cared for animals since I was a young child, but my love for the service of animals truly sparked when I spent time working as a kennel technician in Franklin Tennessee back in 2017. From a new puppy learning to adjust to life, to the senior dog needing a little extra care, my full heart is in it, and nothing makes me more happy than to care for our furry friends that hold such unconditional love. In my pet care practice I am very dedicated to accommodating specific needs. I have spent time studying the best pet care practices and safety protocols. Your pets well-being is my top priority. My goal is to ensure all my new furry friends have a positive experience.
Reviews
She did amazing. This was my first time using Rover and I’m so pleased by the whole service and having Tracie watch my cat for me. Thank you once again.
Tracie was amazing! She was super sweet with Thor and Freya right away and asked really good questions during the meet and greet that I did not even think of. I get super nervous leaving my babies with anyone who is not family or has watched them before and was especially nervous because one of them had been having hairballs pretty much daily. Tracie let me know when they did, cleaned them all up, and took great care of them. She followed the instructions very well and they were quite confusing at first because we use the Pet Libro wet feeders. I highly recommend Tracie and will definitely work with her again.
Tracie is our go to sitter since moving to Gallatin. She takes wonderful care of the dogs and would recommend her to anybody looking for a fantastic sitter.
Tracie went above and beyond for our cats. She is extremely thoughtful and organized, and she put our minds at ease while we were out of town. She’s amazing!
