“Ashley was amazing! She stopped by before the visits to meet and to get information about the cats and process. She is very nice and she took a great care of our two cats. I highly recommend!”
“Great kitty mom, cats happy, well fed, litter boxes clean -- and she proactively addresses that occasional hairball issue. Winchester and Indigo wouldn't trade her for all the treats in the cat treat aisle!”
“I have booked Jazzy twice and she has been amazing with my two cats ! She communicated with me when checking on them, sent me pictures, and made sure that they were taken care of. Will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I have had my own dogs, cats, birds, fish, and gerbils. I treat them all with respect and love. I am very reliable and responsible. I currently have an open schedule, so can be flexible and we can discuss options as needed and work around what fits for everyone involved. I am able to board or day care a pet at my home, which has a large fenced yard. Also can do home visits or walks.
About: I have taken care of dogs/cats for family and friends ever since I was 10. I adopted the sweetest pitty 2 years ago, she is great with all other animals and loves to have playdates! I am very reliable when it comes to going on walks or making a trip to the bark park! I am currently a full time graduate student. I have plenty of time in the afternoons on weekdays, and all day on the weekends to spend time with your furry friends! I am available to take care of your furry friends at home, and will maintain a healthy and safe environment for you and your pets!
“Stephanie wow, she has such a beautiful energy, my puppy baby onyx fell in love with her instantly! Stephanie is kind, easygoing, hardworking, and very professional! I truly appreciate her excellent way of communicating and notifying me about her visits. So grateful.”
“Kayla was so great with my cat, Boo. She came over a few days in advance to meet the kitty who is usually super shy. After only one day of cat sitting, Boo was comfortable enough to come out of hiding and get some petting. I’d highly recommend Kayla!”
“Steven did a fantastic job taking care of our many cats (one with daily medication). Steven sent many videos and photos, assuring us that our cats were healthy and happy. His cleanup was really outstanding, leaving our cat areas so clean and tidy. We are grateful for his good care of our kitties.”
About: OVERVIEW: I work from home and love being able to give pets the consistent care and attention they deserve—whether that’s through boarding, house sitting, dog walking, or drop-in visits. I’ve cared for dogs for over 20 years, including senior dogs with medical needs and dogs that benefit from extra training and enrichment. I have a 9-year-old Boxer named Alice, and we stay active with daily walks, playtime in our fenced yard, nature hikes, and lots of snuggles. I’d be happy to bring that same level of care, attention, and activity to your pet’s day—whether you're at work or away on vacation. In addition to general care, I also have experience with basic training and behavior support, and I’m happy to include enrichment activities or training reinforcement during our walks and drop-ins. SCHEDULE: Because I work from home, I’m able to be flexible with my schedule to meet your needs. Whether you need regular walks during the workweek, drop-in visits while you're at an event, or full-time care while you're traveling, I’ll do my best to accommodate. ENVIRONMENT: I have a fenced backyard and a friendly resident dog to keep yours company if they enjoy socializing. I can also easily crate if needed or feed separately. There’s a nature trail and a quiet park just a block from my home that I use regularly for walks. I also have plenty of toys and treats available to keep your pup happy. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and relaxed—just like family.
About: With over 20 year’s experience with caring for many creatures, I value the connection pets have with their humans. I will treat your pet as one of the family with gracious care. As a graduate student, my schedule is flexible and I’m usually home when I’m not working in a lab. My daughter is a teen and available for backup help when I need her. We make a great team. I have a small fenced area at my townhouse and beyond that there is a wooded area with a creek. I allow my cats to roam but they never leave the wooded area. They are trained to come inside when I call them and I’ve even trained one to sit on command. They have access to a private room if a pet needs to stay overnight in my home. I never push boundaries and realize all creatures have their own personal bubble. I am an experienced walker and use positive coaching and encouragement for walks.
About: I have about 2 years of professional experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and breeds at doggy daycares. I also pet sit for my vet. I can administer medications, including insulin. I love loving on everyone's pets! 🩷 I will change my schedule to fit yours and your pets needs! Just let me know what is needed and we'll work it out! 🐾🩷 I do not have a fenced in yard so I will be taking care of your animals in your home. Most animals prefer the comfort of their own home 🩷
About: I am currently a dump truck driver and looking for some side work that I would enjoy! I love dogs/cats they are the best therapy lol. I have experience with big and small dogs and giving edible medication if needed. I used to volunteer for a rescue on adoption days in Chattanooga and helped rescue/foster some of the dogs. I would love to play with your dogs/Cats (if they like those kinds of things) taking them on walks in your neighborhood or if they like riding in the car to the park or even taking them to get a pup cup. I also want to help with anybody that needs help running errands or some little house clean up. I will bath your dog if needed! I’m available anytime after work or if it’s a rainy day I’m available if your dog needs checked on while your out of town or at work. I live in an apartment complex that is very grassy and have a cute dog park and lost of walking areas! I have a wonderful 1 year old spayed cat named maple!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, I currently have 4 dogs. 8 pound shih tzu, 25 pound lab mix (puppy), 55 pound boxer/texas heeler mix, and 80 pound lab mix. I mostly grew up around small dogs. Growing up my family had 3 yorkies, a Pomeranian, Maltese, and a chihuahua wiener dog mix. Smallest being 3 pounds and biggest being 10 pounds. I don’t ever do anything in the mornings or in the afternoon so dog walking, or dog/cat sitting or drop ins would be a great thing for me to do. I’ve done dog sitting before. I took care of 5 basset hounds for 5 days, 4 nights. I first met the parents and dogs and was given a run down of everything. Then when I got there for the overnight sits there was a printed off paper of everything I needed to know along with additional contact information. Those 5 days consisted of rinsing out water and giving new frequently, feeding at 8 am and 6pm along with giving one of the dogs meds at morning and night. Also picking up any poop that was on the back porch.
