Pet Sitting Oakridge

About: I have been around all different kinds of dogs my entire life. My parents were big animal lovers which had been passed on to me. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own. One is a smaller dog and our other 2 are bigger dogs (60-75 lbs). Our cat is a 3 year old cat who is not afraid of anything. He loves to play with our dogs like he is one of them! I have a heart for animals and love getting to spoil and play with all the dogs/ cats that I have the chance to meet. I currently am staying at home with my daughter! I was a teacher but now am staying at home full time. Whatever you need I am able to fit your animals schedule into my day! I am able to follow any schedule and rules that are needed to be followed. It is so important to know that your dog is in good hands and taken care of when you are away and I want to be sure that every client knows I will do that for them. I will be sure to love on, play and make sure the dogs needs are met and each client can have an eased mind when they are away.

“Enjoyed getting pictures and updates every day while we were out of town. June took lots of notes during our meet and greet and took great care in knowing our 3 kitties all have much different personalities. I was at ease our entire trip knowing June was dropping in to feed them and give them a little play time each day. We will definitely be using them for our future trips!”

About: I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and my passion for canine care began at age 14 when I first learned the fundamentals of training and responsible pet ownership. Since then, I have personally raised two dogs from nine-week-old puppies into adulthood, giving me hands-on experience with developmental needs, safety, and attentive daily care. Animals naturally sense my calm demeanor and feel comfortable around me, allowing me to build instant trust and keep them at ease. In addition to raising my own companions, I regularly help pet parents understand canine behavior and basic training through positive, clear communication that works seamlessly for both dogs and their owners. As a current student, my daily routine is structured to ensure your pets receive reliable, dedicated care without disruption. I have excellent availability early in the morning before classes, typically between 5:00 AM and 8:00 AM or 11:00 AM depending on the day. After classes wrap up, I am fully free for afternoon and evening visits starting after 12:00 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and after 5:00 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As long as visits fall around these regular class windows, I can seamlessly accommodate walks, feedings, and drop-ins throughout the week. I also have zero issues providing overnight care and weekend coverage, giving your pets consistent attention, company, and love while keeping their routines completely on track. Because I am currently in school, I do not offer pet boarding in my own home. Instead, I specialize entirely in in-home pet sitting and drop-in visits, allowing your pets to stay comfortable, secure, and stress-free in their own familiar environment. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your personal space with the highest level of respect, care, and cleanliness. My primary focus is making sure all of your pet’s essential needs are met meticulously, from precise feeding schedules and fresh water to maintaining clean living areas and administering medication if required. Beyond the basics, I pay close attention to each animal’s unique personality and follow any extra instructions to the letter, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, and dedicated companionship.

About: I have experience caring for both Huskies and Golden Retrievers, which has given me insight into different energy levels, personalities, and training styles. Huskies require structure and exercise, while Golden Retrievers are eager to please and highly social. Currently, I am raising a 9-week-old Golden Retriever, focusing on early training, socialization, and building healthy daily routines. Pet care is a consistent part of my daily routine and something I prioritize. Each day includes feeding, walks, playtime, and basic training, especially with my 9-week-old Golden Retriever who requires frequent attention and structure. I also make time for grooming, cleaning, and monitoring their health and behavior. Overall, caring for my pets is naturally built into my schedule and balanced alongside my other responsibilities. I care for pets in my home by providing a safe, clean, and structured environment where their needs are consistently met. This includes feeding them on a regular schedule, ensuring they always have fresh water, and giving them daily exercise and playtime. I focus on training and positive reinforcement, especially with my 9-week-old Golden Retriever, to build good habits early. I also maintain grooming, keep their living areas clean, and monitor their health and behavior closely to make sure they are happy and well cared for. I have a fenced in back yard for free roam play.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Cane Corso, which gave me firsthand experience living with and caring for a large, powerful breed from an early age. Over the years, I’ve also cared for cats, parrots, chinchillas, and fish—including a household of seven Maine Coons—so I’m comfortable around animals with very different personalities and needs. I eventually turned that lifelong experience into professional pet sitting, caring for dogs and cats for about a year. That experience taught me that good pet care goes beyond feeding and walks. Every animal has their own routine, temperament, boundaries, and way of communicating, and I make an effort to understand and respect those differences. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, including large breeds, and I’m patient with animals that need time to become comfortable with someone new. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, routines, and any other specific care your pet requires. As an active-duty Soldier at Fort Campbell, reliability and attention to detail are important to me. I also understand how unpredictable military schedules can be. Whether you’re dealing with a long duty day, field exercise, TDY, or simply need someone dependable while you’re away, my goal is to make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. You can expect clear communication, photos, and updates while your pets are in my care—because you shouldn’t have to wonder how they’re doing while you’re away. As an active-duty Soldier at Fort Campbell, I keep a structured routine and plan my pet-sitting availability around my military schedule. I’m generally available outside of duty hours, including evenings and weekends, and I keep my Rover calendar updated so I only accept bookings I know I can reliably fulfill. I also understand that military life doesn’t always follow the original plan. Long duty days, field exercises, TDY, and last-minute schedule changes happen, so I especially understand clients who need dependable pet care when their own schedules become unpredictable. When I accept a booking, I make that commitment part of my schedule and ensure I have enough time to give your pet proper care and attention rather than trying to squeeze in as many visits as possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the animal and the home with respect. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications or special care instructions, household rules, and any areas that are off-limits. Safety always comes first. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure before moving a pet in or out of the home, and I pay attention to the animal’s behavior rather than forcing interaction. I’m comfortable giving shy or cautious pets the time and space they need to become familiar with me. I also believe trust comes from communication. I’ll provide photos and updates during visits and let you know if I notice anything unusual with your pet or their environment. As an active-duty Soldier, accountability and attention to detail are important parts of my everyday life. When you trust me with your pet and access to your home, I take that responsibility seriously.

“Ashlie is very friendly and reliable! Our pup enjoys having her around. We are happy we were able to find such a great sitter for our boy! We highly recommend Ashlie to our friends and family!”

About: Hi! My name is Zoey, I am 19 and a current sophomore at Austin Peay State University studying g Veterinary Technology. I worked at a doggy daycare in Knoxville for just about 2 years! I am able to read body language, groom and care for dogs, and also bond with any dog regardless of temperaments! I care for a high energy dog of my own so my daily routine includes making sure my dog has plenty of exercise each day, while also making sure she has the right amount of rest. I always make sure to bond with a dog and make sure their comfort comes before mine! I never want a dog to feel scared or uncomfortable around me or my other animals.

“Very good communication and photos! Loved on my babies! Will definitely use again!”

“Alexis communicated extremely well and treated my boy great. I trust her entirely and was able to rely on her heavily while I went home for the holidays. I can’t thank her enough!”

“My absolute favorite pup sitter ever! We had a loss in the family and with almost no notice he reached out letting me know he could help. He also went above and beyond making sure each of my dogs got out door time, special attention, treats, their medication and fresh food and water. Genuinely just a wonderful human. Thank you for everything you do! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.

About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every dog like family. I have three sweet, well-loved pups of my own—a playful 1-year-old shepherd husky, a gentle 5-year-old black lab— & the sweetest 1 year old Corgi, so I understand different energy levels, personalities, and care needs. I’ve raised 2 of them since they were puppies, which gave me hands-on experience with puppy training, routines, and positive reinforcement, as well as providing calm, patient care for more mature dogs. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first, whether that means structured playtime, relaxing cuddle time, or keeping routines consistent to reduce stress. I’m attentive, dependable, and genuinely love building trust with both pets and their owners so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I am currently a full time stay home dog mama. My entire days revolve around my fur babies since my schedule is completely open. I’ve loved dogs my whole life and I’ve recently moved to the area from Colorado and went from an apartment to a house with a big yard so most of my days are spent outside with the fur babies. I do have a very large fully fenced in backyard and my dogs pretty much come in & out as they please. They have a large water bowl outside that is always filled and I spend time working with them and giving treats throughout the day as well.

“Ayla-Lynette did an amazing job with my two kitties, one of whom required daily injections and was not easy! Was so grateful that they were in her care, she was wonderful at keeping me updated and sending photos in the lake. I highly recommend her to anyone reading this, she will take wonderful care of your animals. Thank you again Ayla-Lynette!”

About: My first pet was a cat growing up, and later on I helped take care of my family’s Golden Retriever and got to watch him grow up. I’ve also pet sat through Trusted House Sitters in places like Chicago and Boston, caring for dogs in their own homes. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work remotely as a graphic designer, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the day. I always enjoy getting outside, so spending time walking and caring for pets is the perfect break from my desk. When pet sitting, I always treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I'll follow your routine closely, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
