Dog Sitting Oak Ridge

“Melissa has given us the precious gift of peace of mind when we have opportunities for a long day away from our Misty girl. I believe when we've been gone a few hours she knows Melissa will be dropping in to give her snacks, an opportunity to do her business, and some play time. She's a rescue who lost 2 homes before ours, including a period of homelessness fending for herself, so having her confident that we will always see to her care and will always come back is vitally important to me. With Melissa in our lives, we have that. It's all a matter of trust, and Melissa is definitely in our circle of trust.”

About: My name is Christine and I have a friendly family of four! Our family loves to love up animals! I will take exceptional care of your babies while you're away. We live in a four bedroom colonial home with a fenced in backyard. We live mins away from Cattus Island park and trails that we frequent everyday! If you need someone to come to your house and take care of the animals I am definitely up for the task. I will treat your home and your babies like mine so you can rest assured. Dog walking is our specialty we love the outdoors and fresh air. Our home is friendly, smoke free, covid free, and clean. I look forward to walking and playing with them! I am flexible! I am willing to work with whatever you have going on and if I cannot accommodate I make sure to tell you upfront! I have a fenced in backyard. I can block off front door as an added level of security to ensure no running. I have a "dogroom" that the beds and play items can go so if your pup wants a break from the house they have their own space. Otherwise they're welcome to roam free!

“Nicole was absolutely AMAZING! She longingly cared for our three pets, sent the best photos, and asked great questions. We will definitely be repeat clients.”

About: I’ve grown up with my own dogs to take care of as well as helping friends with their pets. If someone was to take care of my dog, I’d want them to be loving, responsible, and friendly and that’s exactly how I’d be with your pup! I’m here to help you out, so you just have to let me know when :) I work full time 8-4, Monday to Friday. Any time after my work hours I can help. And I can do any day or time on the weekends if I’m available. If you have a fence, I’m triple checking that it’s locked before we play outside. And making sure their bed is as comfy as mine is only fair!

“Laura took great care of our 2 dogs and 3 cats for a week while we were away. She was very conscientious, communicative, and did an overall fantastic job. She sent us pet photos at every visit. We will be happy to hire Laura again for the next vacation!!! Highly recommend 🙂”

I am a former master groomer as well as canine trainer, have worked with thousands of dogs regardless of breed, age, or background and have never met a dog, cat or creature that did not love me as much as I do them❤️ From trimming nails to snuggling up with your pup at night, if you choose me to care for your animals, they become my own and part of my family❤️ when applicable, I also do incorporate training into regular walks and drop ins to make life a more pleasant experience for both our furry family members and us humans!

Every animal I have the pleasure of caring for becomes a part of my family and is treated like my own.

About: Hello my name is Antonio. All my life I have been surrounded by cats and dogs. I love playing with animals and taking them out for long walks. Also, I am able to administer any oral medication or treatment needed for your furry friends!!! I am a middle school special education science teacher, so during the summer I am free. Mondays are my long days but other than that I am pretty much free any day of the week. I treat all animals as if they were my own, and I give them the proper care they deserve. I have a mini fenced in backyard but I may do walks around the block. I am able to provide separation during feedings, and any accommodations that are necessary for your loved one to feel happy and safe.

About: I have had numerous pets over the years that include dogs of many sizes and breeds. I have raised puppies and seen my share of canine companions through to the Rainbow Bridge. I have experience with numerous medical issues and giving medications. To be clear, I do not have any professional Veterinary experience from a providers perspective, but am able to provide basic medication dispensing with your instructions. I love to go for long walks and experience the joy that our furry friends get with lots of sniffs along the way. My husband is also available daily to help with care if for any reason I need to run out for an errand. My husband is also a caregiver on Rover if you would like to check out his page. His name is James Blankenhorn. I am a former Dental Hygienist that has been retired for just under 1 year. We lost our precious Malti Poo 2 years ago and I miss having a dog to care for. My husband is also retired, so we are both at home most days. My husband is also a Rover member that can help care for your dog when needed if I am unavailable, If you would like to check out his profile on Rover, his name is James Blankenhorn. We have had numerous dogs over the years that range from small to large. Our home is in a gated development and none of the yards are fenced in, so walks on a leash would be required. Each of us are also available to walk your canine companion in their own neighborhood if preferred. As noted above, I do not have a fenced in yard, but I am happy to walk your canine companion in my neighborhood or yours. I am happy to dispense medications if needed and happy to take your special pet to a Vet appointment if needed.

“Pamela was fantastic ! My dog certainly enjoyed her company while I was at work, and I’m glad she’s familiar with the lab breed! Communicative and friendly !”

About: I'm very attentive to detail and always make sure to follow any specific instructions or routines that your pet may have. I'm also very reliable and will always show up on time for visits. Pet sitting can be a great way to break up your day and get some fresh air. You can schedule visits around your other commitments and enjoy some quality time with your furry friends. Your pet's home away from home. The safety and environment for a pet should be comfortable, clean, and secure. The pet should have access to food and water, as well as a comfortable bed or crate. The environment should be free of hazards and dangerous objects. Additionally, the pet sitter should be trained in pet care, including how to handle emergencies.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always been a dog lover. As well, I have worked at a dog kennel where I was in charge of feeding all of the dogs and letting them out to go the bathroom. The dogs ranged in ages from puppies all the way up to senior dogs which needed assistance in getting up to start walking. There is no dog too young or too old for me. I will embrace and love your best friend like they are my own! We will go for walks and play every night to make sure your best friends does not miss you too much! If you have any questions, please don’t be afraid to ask. Let’s have a barking good time together!

“Cassandra was a wonderful companion for Bentley. She always spent time with him and sent us pictures of her visit with him. We would certainly use Cassandra again. Bentley has a new friend.”
