Dog Walkers in Pleasant Shade, TN

About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a child. I have experience with dogs, cats, small animals, and a farm animals. Have spent 17 years working in animal rescue and volunteering in a veterinary setting. In a professional capacity I ran a dog kennel, doggy day care, and grooming salon. I will love and care for your pets like my own! I run Southern Heart Animal Rescue a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to serving needy animals in our community full time. My schedule is completely flexible and can be arranged to suit you and your pet's needs. My home environment is full of love and attention. I do have a fenced yard, the back is 1 acre and double fenced, but the animals are always supervised outside. I have a very active family and am always taking the pups on long walks and hikes. I love taking the dogs to all the parks, exploring, swimming, and making new adventures! We have three people in our house, my partner, my dad, and myself. Between the three of us there is always someone at the house. My dogs are silly, playful, and very used to new dogs coming and going due to my animal rescue. My cats are also incredibly social and used to new animals. Animal rescue does that to the resident animals. 😊

About: My entire life I have been raised around large breed dogs, cats, and fish. I am also familiar with reptile, monkey, equestrian, farm animal, and small mammal care. Such as cleaning pens, feedings, cleaning tanks, ear canal cleanings, nail trimming, bathing, and deshedding! The personal pets you see listed on my profile are 100% accurate as well, most people find it shocking but I’ve always been raised around an entire pack of animals and they are all in the best health with the most love we could possibly surround them with! I am completely available to watch your animals! I am hoping to make this a full time job, so please book me for your long trips, and daily walks! I can ensure that I will leave your house cleaner than when I arrived. My parents run 5 AirBnB cabins, and I am the housekeeper for the guests to ensure sanitary sheets, towels, and plates/dishes are provided. As well as a well kept, and clean living environment while they enjoy our stay with us! I was previously a school custodian for South Warren Middle School in Bowling Green, KY, so cleaning was a daily job for me and I thoroughly enjoy it. Now I hope to love on animals and make sure that THEY stay in a sanitary and clean environment.

About: I love animals, especially dogs. I'm wanting to start dog sitting and helping others out. I've always had dogs my entire life and they're my absolute favorite animal. We have a big fenced in yard so exercise and getting out will not be an issue. I will treat your furry friends as my own and will do my best to accommodate any special requests you may have. If your animal needs to be taken to any type of vet appointments while they are with me that will not be an issue either. I don't mind administering medicine or even if they just need a bath while they stay with me. Hope I can help you out! I have plenty of time to love and care for your fur baby! There are some hours during the day I'm unavailable, but I am very flexible. I am home most evenings and will be able to care for your pets with the love and care they deserve. I do have a fenced in backyard where they will be able to run around. My two dogs get a long great with others. My children are older and love to play with dogs as well!

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life, always there was a dog or cat as part of the family. I have cared for pets for family and friends over the years. I would love to care for your fur baby. I promise to love and care if they were my own. I currently own a Boston Terrier, her name is Sadie Rose. She is my 2nd Boston, and she is my little love. My 1st Boston, Chakka died from cancer 6 months before I got Sadie. I have owned every dog from Labs, Rottweilers to now Boston Terriers, and a few mixed breeds in between. I love my little Sadie Rose and want her to be loved by anyone who cares for her. I would treat your pets the same. I am working 4 days a month at the hospital. I would have lots of time to care for your pet, as you need me. My Sadie has the run of the house and sleeps with me at night. I would take care of your pet, whatever you need for them. I’m available long walks, exercise and playtime. Also included or lots of belly rubs!

“Larisa is wonderful. She goes above and beyond and my dogs love her. This is my 2nd time booking and I have already scheduled her again. Highly recommend!!!”

About: I have over 30 years of volunteer work at animal shelters working with at risk dogs. I have 2 high energy, stong willed dogs of my own. I bring a strong, yet calm engagement with every sort of dog personality by carefully observing their behaviors and approaching them in a way that generates comfort while displaying my authority. I am very flexible within reason. I work from home and own my own company. I really prefer an intro meet with you and your baby prior to first engagement if possible. That allows me to understand the dogs and see your manners/handling. It also allows me to build comfort with your dog and make them less stressed when I show up. I live on over 40 acres. I will align to your specific wants and needs regarding care whether that be in your home or at mine. I can crate overnight, walk frequently and for the durations you want. I build rapport through calm, confident engagement with your dog and you. Open communications with a willingness to express issues with kindness is key to a strong and genuine relationship/team effort.

About: I have been taking care of Cats since I was born then later welcoming a rescure & husky. I have experience with pit bulls & other terriers. I'm fully available to help your pets. I would be able to stop by in the morning through out the day & evenings so they are not waiting on me. I treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I’d expect for my own. I make sure your pet: • Stays on their regular schedule for meals, meds, walks, and cuddles • Gets plenty of attention, play, and calm companionship • Is never left in a mess—I clean up and leave your space as I found it • Gets daily updates so you have peace of mind while you’re away Every pet has a different personality, and I’m always happy to follow any special instructions to make them feel comfortable and loved.

“Nikki has been great with my young dog. She has walked/dropped in to check on him during two separate occasions when he was healing from surgery or other procedures from the vet. She is great about sending updates for when she is on the way to my house and on my dog’s mood that day. She is very good at reading him and judging whether he wanted to walk that day or just hang out in the backyard. I recommend Nikki for drop in visits or dog walks.”

About: My animal career started 22 years ago while working at a boarding Kennel. Since that time I have worked in animal control as an officer and director. I went on to start my own boarding Kennel and decided to slow down a bit and move to Red Boiling Springs. I have cared for many animals of all types. Medication and health issues are no problem. I have also worked, and still do, with many rescues in many states. Also groomed dogs for 20 years. So I have extensive animal experience. After moving from Lebanon I now live in Red Boiling Springs and only work watching pets. So this is my only job. So your pets get all of my time. I have pets of my own dogs and cats and everyone is very friendly. If your pup doesn't get along with dogs or cats that's also OK. We can separate. I have a fenced in yard and over 6 acres to run and play and a lake across the street for walks.

I’m good with dogs and love all shapes and sizes. I have spent also the last 10 years dog sitting and walking friend’s dogs. I don’t own one myself so having the opportunity to play with someone else’s beloved pup is very fulfilling for me. I work remotely so I’m very flexible for pet sits. I’m able to travel to you and your pet, and will stay near them if I am sitting. I will keep a close eye if they’re outside, or on a leash if in public. I will make sure they use the bathroom, and eat properly. You can rest assured your pet will be well taken care of.
