Dog Walking Mountain Home

“Absolutely wonderful dog walker! You can tell he loves animals so much. It comes through in everything He is saying and the way he interacts with them. I highly recommend Thomas for any of your pet care!”

About: I've helped take care of neighbors and friends dogs many times since I was a kid up into college. I have always had a dog of my own and understand the importance of being able to get some help to watch them when needed! I am currently a student in the PT program at ETSU and have time to let your pups out during breaks, before, and after class! I know every dog has their own routine, to provide check-ins and walks I would just follow the info given for what a normal day for the pup would be! I also find it very important to provide check-in’s/ photos of the pup during visits so you can see what they’ve been up to!

“Olivia was great!! I booked her for a week of midday dog walks. She was reliable and treated my pup with love! Highly recommend her!”

“My dog fell in love with Heather immediately. She communicated well, took suggestions and my dog’s needs to heart, and everything went really well.”

About: What sets me apart from other Rover sitters is my specialized experience in both puppy training and senior pet care. I am skilled in positive reinforcement techniques, ensuring that young dogs develop good habits early on. Additionally, I provide compassionate, attentive care tailored to senior pets’ unique needs, including administering medications and supporting mobility. My dedication to personalized, loving attention ensures every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I’m currently working part-time remotely , so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups or kitties! Right now I’m available 24/7 because I am saving to having a child! When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I ensure their comfort, safety, and well-being. I maintain feeding schedules, provide fresh water, administer medications if needed, and engage in playtime and exercise. I respect the pets' routines, offer companionship, and keep their environment clean. I communicate regularly with clients, updating them on their pets’ health and behavior, ensuring peace of mind while they're away.

About: I have experience with all animals from birds to cattle. I spent a few years in animal rehabilitation as well as cared for special needs animals. I grew up on my family farm caring for a variety of animals. I love them all with my whole heart. Day to day I am in school for Radiology and I’m looking for work that has more flexible hours and days to work with my schedule. I will do whatever your pet needs in your own home to keep them comfortable and relaxed. I will crate if you want but I will also snuggle them. I will play fetch and go on walks. I will even take them to the vet if you can’t because of work.

About: I am a lifelong dog lover who has always shared my home with furry family members. Because dogs have been a constant part of my life, I truly understand their unique personalities and daily needs. I am deeply passionate about keeping dogs safe, happy & comfortable while their owners are away. I have many family members and friends who have relied on me to care for their furry family. I consider my dogs my own children and would treat any animal with the same regard! Pet care is my job! My routine is often shaped around the schedules & needs of my pets or clients' pets, and I like it that way! I care for my pets in my own home and treat every client's home like I would my own. I'm passionate about keeping pets comfortable during their stay, so I adapt to their environment and respect their space.

“McKenzie is amazing! She takes Emmy on walks during the days I can’t come home during my lunch break, and every day when I get home Emmy is happier than ever! McKenzie is always on time, trustworthy and kind. I can’t recommend her more!”

About: I have 20+ years of canine experience, providing expert care for dogs of all ages. I have experience working with both young puppies and senior dogs, ensuring their specific needs are met with care and attention. I am skilled in training and handling, and providing safe transportation. I have managed, owned and operated doggy daycares, ensuring daily play, socialization, and individualized attention. Every dog in my care receives loving, professional, and reliable care. As a dog mom myself, pet care is a natural part of my daily schedule. I pride myself on owning happy animals by providing constant care and attention. In my home all pets are treated like family. I believe in letting dogs be dogs. Stemming from that belief, I do not crate the animals in my care (unless strictly necessary or requested by the client). I live right next to a fenced dog park so all dogs in my care get ample opportunity to stretch their legs. I also provide frequent potty breaks, daily walks and structured meal times.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life! I’ve done everything from fostering to raising litters of puppies and kittens. I’m an active person so there is no shortage of playtime. I’m very dedicated to providing the love and support pets need! Caring for pets is always a priority of mine as I currently own a dog and cat myself. I work part time so my schedule is very flexible. I have a spare bedroom in my house with a large mattress for pets to rest on. There is space for a crate if needed. My backyard is very spacious. My area is fairly quiet as I live outside the city. I also have a very friendly dog and cat so your pets can have new friends (can be separated if needed).

“We had a great experience having Bridget care for our Golden Retriever, Graham! She was reliable and communicative and sent great updates. She made us feel completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands and Graham seemed to love her too. We would definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

About: I’ve been a reliable dog sitter for family and friends for 25 years. I’m excited to meet new dog friends and enjoy making memories with your pet! I am a flexible stay at home mom with one dog of my own. I am able to assist families on a short notice or plan ahead! I have one dog in my home that is friendly with other dogs. We have a large fenced in backyard for play. We also have space for crated dogs.

About: I’m currently pursuing a dog training mentorship and look forward to applying what I learn to provide thoughtful, low-stress walks for your dog. I’m passionate about understanding breed tendencies, canine body language, and each dog’s unique personality so I can tailor every walk to their individual needs. My goal is to create a calm, positive experience where your dog feels safe, confident, and understood while getting the exercise and enrichment they need. I believe trust is the foundation of every great relationship with a dog, and I strive to build that trust on every walk. For high energy or adventure loving dogs I am also offering longer enrichment walks/hikes. Giving your dog the opportunity for time in nature to sniff, move and explore in new environments. These will typically be about 1-1.5hrs in length and will be assessed by each dog’s current energy, fitness and comfort level. Perfect for dogs that need more than just a neighborhood walk. Right now I work full time and only have minimal availability. As I build more clients and gain experience in my field I plan to open up more days and times. I like to bring treats with me for our walks. If the owner needs specific treats for their pets I ask that to be provided.

About: I am a single middle age compassionate, loving female who will absolutely show your dog or cat the most love and affection he or she has ever known! I do not have children and I believe our pets are a reflection of our own soul and speak to us through the way they interact with us. If we have had a bad day, they know. If we have had a good day, they know that too! This is my only job so my schedule is pretty open to meeting the needs of you and your fur babies. I look forward to meeting you and your precious pooch or kitty for lots of love! I am a retired veteran so caring for your fur baby is my #1 priority. Check my schedule on the Rover app. Let me be your preferred sitter! I can accommodate your pet by house sitting in your home. I feel that pets thrive in their own environment and their own routines with the least amount of stress possible.

About: I’ve taken care of others dogs as well as my own for as long as I can remember. I love getting to meet new pets and treat them as my own!! I currently work a part time job. But would love to take care of your pets when needed. By having a part time job it leaves my schedule pretty open and flexible! I am able to take care of your pets however you need or prefer! I love to take them on walks, throw the ball with them or just sit in the sun!

About: I’ve shared my life with dogs since I was five and truly consider them family. From delivering litters of puppies to training a pack of eight I have the experience and patience to handle almost any situation. As a two-time cancer survivor, I am now dedicating my time to pet sitting. It brings me immense joy and helps me stay active. I provide a clean and healthy environment. I specialize in senior care, special needs, administering medication and manners training. I take my 5-star reputation seriously and treat every fur baby like my own. I look forward to meeting your furry family member! **I exclusively welcome crate-trained dogs. ** For an additional fee: I also offer mail and/or package collection; bathing to help you out and give you extra peace of mind while you're away. **First time Rover customers receive $20 off with this code: LORIF43758, https://www.rover.com/sit/lorif43758 *** Please provide veterinary information in case of an emergency!*** I do not work therefore, I am home to take care of your animals either in my home. I will love them as if they were my own. I do watch more than one dog at a time. I am known in the neighborhood as Lori the dog lady. I walk my dogs every hour or two.. I live in a community that has a dog park at the end of my street and plenty of stations for waste pick up which I am a big stickler about. I do require you bring a crate for night time and it didn’t taste. I need to run an errand.

“Shane was terrific! He followed all the directions and took my dog for the full hour walk, which is not always true of other people. I plan to using him for all of my future dog needs, as well as my cat needs. He is punctual, friendly, and professional.👏👏👏”

About: I've been in love with animals since I was young, and I have worked with dogs with special needs such as previously abused dogs and reactive dogs. I'm still in school and work a part time job, so breaks during the day are a bit harder for me some days, but on others I'm mostly free! I will happily follow any routine you have set in place so long as I am shown prior to petsitting! When watching pets in home I try to be gone for as little time as possible so that they have company and don't get too lonely while you're gone!

About: Unclassified "animal whisper" I live for animals and children! They speak a different, much more pure language! They know real love and loyalty and are worth every second you can provide! Many years of experience, and looking forward to many more! Drop ins and walks are my favorite 😊 All animals of all shapes and sizes make me my best self! And I will die in the line of doggy duty!! You won't regret letting me spend time with your fur baby 😻 I work from home currently so I am always home through the week or at least close by so I can accommodate most needs. :) We have no fence unfortunately but we have plenty of leashes! As far as for someone elses home we take the direction of the owners note and recognize it is the pets home and routine so all of that is respected!
