Doggy Day Care in Oak Ridge

“Flexible and friendly. Lola had a great time and came home tired and clearly had fun. I could tell she was digging and running around with the other dogs having a great time.”

“You won't find a better family to care for your pups! I happened upon Nikki on this app and I feel like it was fate. Her husband, Mike, their kids and Nikki spent so much time and gave so much love to my Charlie. He is very needy and they were patient, found activities to keep him so happy and also gave him a new bestie. Nugget, their golden retriever, was instantly Charlie's pal. What a sweetheart! Charlie was in a rough spot with separation anxiety and acting very sad and exhausted. 3 days with this family perked him up and gave him new life! I am so thankful!”

“Mary was a wonderful caregiver for our dog! It was our first time using Rover and things couldn't have been better. Mary sent updates during the day, kept our pup entertained with walks, and gave him lots of TLC. We'd love to have Mary watch him again when we're in the Knoxville area.”

“Meredith was excellent taking care on my Ruth. She definitely did the “extra” and made my life easier by being flexible with my sometimes hectic work schedule. She also provided regular updates throughout the day which made me feel very at ease. My dog Ruth loved her and we both felt very secure in Meredith’s hands. I can totally recommend her!”

Karolina B.

“Joan is absolutely wonderful! It was puppy love at first sight. My dog spent three days with her. She sent pictures! My dog was very well loved, and well cared for. She takes him on walks during the day. She has a lovely home, which allows him to do his zoomies. My dog took to her instantly, and so did I. She’s a very loving and caring woman. I would highly recommend Joan for your pet sitting needs. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Highly recommend Kos to care for your dog. For our dog to be away from us is a big deal and I don't worry about his state of care whatsoever.”

About: Honest & trustworthy, dependable and loving care for your pet family members. Retired from a 22 year career in law enforcement, and spent the last several years dealing with my own senior pets and their healthcare needs (cancer, seizures, meds, etc), so I know the importance of having someone you can trust to care for your animals, whether they have special needs or not. I have a safe home with a 6’ fenced back yard, for potty breaks and playtime. I believe pets are part of the family! I am currently retired/not working, so I am flexible to meet your pet care needs. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, potty breaks, playtime, doggy day care & boarding. I have a 6’ fenced back yard, and don’t currently have any pets of my own. I am happy to adapt to whatever care your pets needs, and will try to do whatever you think would make them most comfortable. I require a meet and greet prior to boarding and doggy day care.

About: I am a registered nurse currently staying home during the week to homeschool my boys. I work limited weekend days, but my husband is always home on days I’m at work, so someone will still be here to love on and care for your furbabies. I love animals and know how important it is to have someone you trust to care for your babies while you are away! I’d love to come do drop ins or watch your animals while you’re out of town and give you peace of mind that they’ll be well-cared for. I’ll happily provide you regular photos and updates if you wish. I’ve owned dogs, hamsters, and fish at various times through my life, but right now we have no animals of our own, so your pet will get my full attention! We do not have a fenced backyard, but can do frequent walks in our neighborhood and in our backyard. I have a comfortable crate that can be used for dogs who are crate trained at bedtime. I regularly dog-sit for my parents and in-laws while they are out of town and have experience with dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I am a homeschooling mama and will not have difficulty making time to care for your babies! I can happily accommodate drop ins, dog walks or other arrangements. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets while you are away! I will treat your babies as if they were my own and happily update you with photos if you would like while you’re gone.

“Great place for my dog to spend the day, we will definitely utilize the services this family provides again. They treated us and our dog as family, very warm and welcoming atmosphere. And my dog loved it.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life since day one—I’ve always shared my home with pets (including tiny puppies and 3 week old kittens!), and caring for them quickly became second nature. I started pet sitting and dog walking at 16, and my passion has only grown since then. Over the years, I’ve done extensive research on dog and cat behavior, health, and training—not just to be a better sitter, but to be the best pet parent I can be. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I’m here to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away. I work part-time with two days off each week, and I have the flexibility to take breaks if needed. If I'm boarding your pet, no worries—I live just five minutes from my job and am happy to swing home for quick check-ins, potty breaks, or a fun little play session during the day. Your pet’s comfort and routine are always a top priority! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with three awesome roommates who also love animals, so your pet will get plenty of attention and company! It’s very rare that your pet will be left alone, and when I’m home, we’ve got access to a fenced-in dog yard right in the complex for safe playtime. I’m all about tailoring care to your pet’s vibe—whether that means frequent walks and play for energetic pups or cozy, lazy days for the more relaxed types. Your pet’s happiness come first!

“Lynnette did a great job caring for my puppy, August. She was accommodating with my changing schedule and he always seemed happy to see her.”

Meghan N.

“Jan was able to watch Maddie for doggie daycare on short notice. She has a great set up for yard access and also being able to hang out in the cool of the A/C on a comfy couch. It made my day with my family so much better knowing she was being looked after and had Jan’s company while being in a different environment. I would definitely recommend her and I would leave Maddie in her care again if I needed to.”

About: I have had Chihuahuas, med-poodle mix, and Maltese dogs, so I prefer small to medium size dogs. I am very careful with dogs, so I will make sure they are happy and safe. I am at home all day with my papillon-poodle mix, so I have extra time to care for your "baby". He or she can play in my fenced in back yard, and we can take walks around our very calm neighborhood. My dog is almost 1 yr old, so very friendly and playful. I have a fenced in back yard and covered patio, so if they prefer playing outside, there is a safe area. My home is mostly carpet. I have a large portable pen if needed for extra supervision. My neighborhood is great for taking walks.

About: I have had experience with puppies to seniors, all sizes, breeds and special needs. I know your pet is your baby and I care for them as if they were my own and how I’d want my baby cared for. 🐾❤️ I work from home, off all weekends and holidays. My home is pet friendly and I have a large yard to walk and play in! I want them to feel at home when they’re with me. If they’re used to sleeping in a bed, they may. Car rides, favorite snacks and toys. Crates are welcome as well.

About: I have over five years of hands-on pet care experience, caring for both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Since I was young, neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. Along with personal pet sitting, I also worked at a professional dog boarding facility in Athens, TN, where I gained valuable experience caring for multiple animals at once. This included everything from administering food and medications to ensuring safe group play, monitoring behavior, and keeping the environment clean and stress-free. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies, senior pets who need a gentler touch, and animals with special needs or medical routines. Cats hold a special place in my care as well. I understand their unique personalities and provide the patience and respect they need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddle time, or extended care, I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to each pet’s wellbeing. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in loving and capable hands. I currently work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends, weekdays, and most evenings. My schedule allows me to provide consistent walks, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, an afternoon walk, or overnight care, I’m able to work with your routine and make sure your fur baby always feels loved and cared for. My home is calm, pet-friendly, and set up to make animals feel safe and comfortable. Since I don’t have other pets, your fur baby will get my full attention without the stress of competing for space or care. I’m experienced with crating, feeding routines, and following special instructions. Whether caring for dogs or cats, I make sure to provide a clean and secure environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I treat every animal like family and prioritize safety, trust, and lots of love in everything I do

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.
