About: I grew up surrounded by animals. At one point, my family had 25 dogs! These days, I share my home with two incredible dogs: Porkchop, a sweet and loving companion, and Applesauce, my energetic sidekick. In Tennessee I work from home and able to spend my time caring for your pup. In my professional life (when I travel to California), I’m a studio teacher, working with kids on television and movie sets, though I previously taught kindergarten and third grade. I absolutely adore animals and dream of starting my own rescue one day. Until then, I enjoy offering a safe and loving space for pets through dog sitting, especially during breaks between my show seasons. Your furry family members will be treated like my own! Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine because I work from home with a flexible schedule. I can easily adjust my day to provide attention, walks, meals, and playtime for pets, ensuring they are comfortable and cared for. This flexibility allows me to give them plenty of love and care without feeling rushed. I care for pets by creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. In my home, I provide plenty of attention, regular walks, and playtime, as well as a cozy space for them to relax. It is important that your pet be up to date on vaccines and flea/tick medication to ensure the safety of all animals in my care. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions, maintain the pet’s routine, and ensure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. Their well-being and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Words cannot explain how awesome Gabriela is. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND in caring for Lily. There is no doubt in my mind she truly loves our dog. If you are looking for someone to not only care for your pet, but also give them love and attention Gabby is without a doubt the best person for the job.”

About: My approach to pet care is rooted in patience, genuine love, and treating every dog as a valued member of the family. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and puppies, I deeply understand that pets require more than just basic needs. They thrive on love, reliable structure, and a comfortable place to stay while you are away. My goal is simple: to give pet parents complete peace of mind during vacations or work trips, knowing their animal is in safe and genuinely loving hands. While we currently do not have a dog of our own, this is why I am dedicated to Rover-to connect with and provide affection to all kinds of puppies and dogs. I am excited to shower your beloved companion with care and make a new connection. I am a stay at home mom so I would be able to adjust to almost any schedule. I would be able to give one on one care to your special pup! I would love your dog to be able to make a comfortable living space. We lived in an apartment for years so although we don’t have a fenced in yard, I am very comfortable with leash walking for bathroom breaks and exercise. We are able to use a crate if needed for night time, I also don’t mind a dog sleeping on our couch for added comfort if that’s what the dog is comfortable with. I truly want it to be a specialized and adjustable experience to whatever the fur baby needs.
About: There has never been a moment in my life when I have lived without animals. I have the biggest heart for animals and I will care for them as if they are my own. I have experience caring for all kinds of animals of all ages and sizes. I also have experience administering medication to animals, such as eye drops and pills. If your pet has struggles getting comfortable with new people, I have no problem taking the time and doing everything that is necessary to help them feel comfortable and at ease with my presence because I would never want to cause any stress or anxiety for them or you. I am currently in nursing school so Monday mornings, as well as most of the day on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I am unavailable as I will be in classes! Monday and Wednesday mornings i'm unavailable (sometimes this changes so feel free to ask), and Tuesdays I am unavailable until after 5pm! Thursdays and Fridays I am pretty open if I don't have an exam, but I will be sure to communicate this & it's normally only 2 hours out of the day that I am unavailable! In your home, I understand that is your animals territory and give plenty of time and space to get them comfortable with me and my scent before seeming like i’m imposing or intruding uninvited. I treat everyone’s home how I would want my home treated and leave everything just as good, if not better then when I arrived.
About: I've cared for dogs big and small since I was eleven. I've watched pets, dogs and cats, for my neighbors and family who needed a caregiver while they're out. I've given the animals baths, walked them around their neighborhood, kept them fed and cared for, and I've stayed the night at my relatives for their dogs. They're typically calm and happy around me, despite separation anxiety. I love animals more than most people! I have full open availability with no other pressing school or work obligations. Sitting and dog walking fits perfectly into my routine as a very active person who needs a lot of walking and stimulation myself. It depends on what the client has provided for me at their home and what they have instructed me to do. I'll take them outside or keep them in per the owners' requests.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has had both dogs and cats my entire life. I grew up surrounded by pets and can’t imagine a home without them. Animals have always been a huge part of my world — they’re truly family. I was the proud “cat person” in a very dog-loving family, so I understand and appreciate the unique personalities of both. My cats are my babies and hold a special place in my heart, but I absolutely adore dogs too — I currently have two of my own! From playful and energetic to shy and independent, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all temperaments. I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby. I treat every animal in my care like they’re my own — with patience, attention, and lots of love. Whether it’s sticking to feeding routines, keeping litter boxes fresh, going on walks, or just giving them extra cuddles and reassurance, their comfort and safety always come first. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and give you peace of mind while you’re away I am self employed and working my own schedule. I can be as flexible as needed for you and your fur child to provide the best service. I have a fenced yard and a separate fenced courtyard to keep pups separate if needed. I have two dogs to play and keep yours company and a cat who’s too cool to care about what the dos are up to. I have a XL crate if needed.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of a variety of breeds since I was 11. Neighbors, friends, & family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, play & sit their pets. I'm currently working PRN at the hospital and will have plenty of time to love on and take care of your fur babies, both cats and dogs. I am a Belgian Malinois mama and she keeps me on my feet! I try and walk her 3 times a day. She was exposed to the dog park at a young age and loves other pets. I have an open backyard with a 50 ft tie out lead. I stay outside with my dog at all times while she is using the restroom or when I play with her.
“Excellent pet care! I am recovering from surgery and she was able to walk them for 1/2 hour, something that they needed and I needed. We chatted about personal stuff and told her I need her again. She is good. She is getting a better position at work which made me very satisfied.”

About: Fun, young, athletic, etc that LOVES animals and would love to walk yours and hang out with them!!! I have always been an animal person and I have a puppy of my own so I understand the needs of young puppies and also older ones! Pet care fits in my schedule because I will ALWAYS make time for an animal! Also I love to help out where I can so that is why I signed up to do this!
