She took care of feeding my cats as scheduled and made an effort to engage with them during visits. She also brought in a package for me, which I appreciated.

Ashley was great! Super communicative and always on time for the drop-ins. She consistently sent photos and updates in the report cards, and was always quick to respond to any messages. She even stayed overtime some days just to give my cat a little more company, and helped us out when our apartment needed to do a last minute inspection. Would definitely book her again!

About: Hi! My name is Beth! I absolutely love animals! My husband and I have four dogs and four cats that we care for. They are our babies! So, I know how important getting the best care for your fur babies is! I can walk, feed, play or just check in for a potty break if need be. I had an older dog that had to take medicine every day for cancer, sadly he has passed on. So I am also able to give medicine if that's what your baby needs. I am also available to check on cats. I work as a school photographer, so if you need pictures of your babies while I am caring for them I will be more than happy to provide that! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! I work a Monday through Friday job, usually until about 5pm. So I am available for drop-ins and walks, I am available anytime on Saturday and Sunday, and then Monday through Friday in the evenings or really early mornings. I unfortunately cannot care for anymore in my home, especially since I have an over protective pit mix who is very jealous. However in the clients home, I am very respectful and a people pleaser. I will do exactly as directed to the very best of my ability.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, from 10-pound lap dogs to 150-pound large breeds. I currently own two cats and have previously cared for a pit bull mix, miniature schnauzer, toy poodle, and many other pets over the years. I have experience with senior pets, anxious/reactive animals, and administering medications both through food and oral syringes. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets at once and have cared for up to five dogs and one cat at the same time. I truly love spending time with animals and enjoy taking dogs on walks and jogs, playing with them, and giving them plenty of affection and attention. I’m dependable, communicative, and always strive to make both pets and owners feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m currently a full-time student and work part-time, but pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for. With at least two weeks’ notice, I’m able to accommodate my work schedule even more to provide reliable care for your pets. I’m dependable, flexible, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, jogs, cuddles, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to accommodate their routine and keep you updated along the way. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, including senior pets and anxious/reactive animals, so I understand the importance of patience, awareness, and creating a calm environment. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special routines your pet may need. I’m also a strong communicator and will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

Haley was outstanding on her care for our furry child. From the moment she met our dog she knew how to handle her, since she is a very nervous and protective dog. Haley asked many questions to provide the right care for our dog while we were away, and was very great following instructions for the care of our dog. It was the first time we left our dog behind on a family vacation trip, and we were very anxious about how to get the right care for her. Haley did not disappoint. We would definitely recommend Haley's dog care services and we will count on Haley to care of our dog for our future family trips.

Karen always takes great care of my (sick and complicated) cat. She is an excellent communicator and very conscientious. She even suggested a great solution when her schedule precluded her covering part of an upcoming trip.

About: Growing up on a farm equipped me with invaluable knowledge and hands-on experience with various animals. I am a reliable and compassionate caregiver dedicated to delivering exceptional care to every animal I encounter and have the opportunity to love on. I have two dogs of my own, a basset hound and an English mastiff, as well as caring for my moms senior Maltese. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved pet! I have flexible open availability to dedicate my time to caring for your pets! I am a stay at home mom looking to do this full time and put my heart into treating my client’s pets as my own. When I house sit for a client, I treat their home as if it were my own and their pets as if they were mine. I keep the same routine that the pet is used to and do my best to make them feel as comfortable as possible, all while keeping the owner updated on how their pet is doing. It is my greatest goal to have happy and satisfied pets and owners.

About: Hey there! I'm your go-to pet sitter with a decade of experience working with all kinds of furry friends. From dogs to cats, I've got you covered. Need medication administration? No problem! With my expertise, your pets are in safe hands. When I'm not caring for your adorable companions, you can find me enjoying the company of my own two dogs and three cats. And guess what? I've got a fantastic fenced-in yard perfect for playtime! Let's give your pets the love and care they deserve. I’m currently a student at the University of Tennessee so I am available most afternoons and very early mornings. I also am home every evening for the entire night so overnight boarding is available. I am also completely free on weekends so if you want to have a date night, a shopping run, or just need someone to watch your babies while you take a well deserved nap, I got you! At home pets will be taken care of by preference or directions from the pet owner. I have multiple rooms in the house so if there are some older pals or some friends that are just a little more introverted, they will be made to feel as comfortable as possible with some one on one time to avoid over stimulation. I can take them on walks or let them play in the yard alone with my supervision. For those fluffy balls of energy that need more stimulation, my dogs and cats LOVE to play and run to their hearts content! My dogs are very social and have their whole lives experience playing and meeting new animals! Whether it’s playtime and long walks or cuddles and naps I am able to cater to your pets needs so that you can sit back and relax worry free!

About: Medically retired Veteran and stay at home dad with lots of time on my hands to care for fur kids and keep a watchful eye on them. I have dog sat for friends' pets and personal pets that I've owned for over 30 years. I don't currently have another job. So, aside from medical appointments, I don't have any issues with daily or weekly routines. I should be able to conform to any and all needs. I always care for every pet as though that pet were my own. I know how sensitive each pet can be, so I try my best to keep that in mind when dealing with someone else's pet.

About: I’ve had animals ever since I was a little kid. I would dog sit my neighbors animals when they would go on vacations for full weeks or weekends. I would sometimes stay at their houses overnight or go by a few times a day. It would just depend on what was requested. I work from eight to five Monday through Friday and I have all weekends off!! My schedule is pretty free and flexible throughout the weekend. I live in an apartment complex but I do have a dog park there! I also live right down from Concord park in Farragut where I can go and play and walk them.
