“Amanda helped me out when another dog walker flaked out and never showed when I was in EUROPE! I was scrambling to find someone and she was great! My mom let her in and she feed and walked my pups and gave me updates when their walks were over. Everyone had nothing but wonderful things to say about Amanda. She was professional, joyful and kind. You can’t go wrong choosing her to care for your pets! ♥️😊🌟”

About: Growing up with a larger family I have always been used to a much hectic environment. I’ve been around much vocal and less vocal pets and it’s always awesome to see what personality you will get with your fur baby! I would love to be able to play and most importantly keep your pets safe. I dedicate about all of my time to making sure all pets are well taken care of. I also love going to my nearest shelter and love to take out the pups out on walks and love to keep up with my shelters announcements. Whether they need fosters or donations I’m always happy to help any pet in need! I would love to take care of your fur baby at anytime needed as I have open availability currently and would be free for you and your pet! Growing up I have always made sure to do thorough research on what any pet must not eat or play with as I have always made sure to take the best care of any animal that comes into my home. I’ve had my home cat proof, dog proof, chicken proof, and even bird proof to ensure that no lovely pet ever gets hurt as I want nothing more than to have everyone of them live their best life!

About: I’m a cat parent to two very sweet, rambunctious long hair kitties and grew up with both dogs and cats. Both of my cats are medication dependent so I’m very comfortable with animals who need a little extra care. I also regularly care for my friends’ and neighbors’ pets. I’m a freelance illustrator with a very flexible schedule so I’m available to work around each pet’s unique needs and schedule. My goal is to make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible without disruptions to what they are used to when you’re home. I am available for drop ins as well as staying at your home and will adhere to your pet’s schedule for meals, walks, play, and potty breaks.
“Josh has been great walking my dog Murphy. He's been incredibly reliable which is a big relief for a worried dog mom new to the city. His updates & pics help me know Murphy is in good hands.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my own dog, a senior Shih Tzu/Poodle mix, for the past 15 years. I’ve also dog-sat for family and friends over the past 5 years, giving me experience with small, medium and large sized dogs. My own dog is a bit reactive, so I’m also familiar with caring for reactive dogs and being mindful of their individual needs. I recently started fostering a senior dog as well, which has given me even more hands-on experience caring for older pups. I’m excited to provide your dog with the same patience, care, and attention I give my own! I currently have a pretty flexible schedule so I have great availability for your pup while you work or take care of other responsibilities! I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your dog throughout the day and can be flexible with different routines and care needs. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings when my schedule allows. I’ll do my best to keep your pup’s usual routine consistent, including walks, meals, potty breaks, play time, and plenty of love and attention while you’re away! I would love to take your pups on walks, enjoy playtime, or spend some outdoor time with them, as I also love being outside and going on walks! I’d also love to get to know your pets and their individual personalities so I can help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I’ll make sure to follow your instructions and their usual routines as closely as possible, so they can feel happy and at ease in their own home.
“Zoe was ready the minute Jo walked in the door. She kept sitting for Jo while she patiently worked to get Apollo (husky/shepherd mix) ready for his walk and was willing to leave with Jo at the end of their session, which is proof of how good Jo was with our pups. We look forward to scheduling more walk sessions with Jo for both our furbabies in the near future.”

About: Hey hey! My name is Anyah! I was originally born and raised in Nashville, specifically Madison. Living in the suburbs of Nashville, I’ve grown up around dogs since I was born. Big dogs, little dogs, young pups, and elderly pups as well. When I was 5 years old, I got my dearly beloved dog, Poochie, for $100 purchased off the side of the road in Madison on a hot summer day. They say how much you love a dog is a reflection of their life span and I am happy to let you know my dear Poochie lived to be 19 years old! Being that my dog was considered a “senior”, I have specialization for caring for older dogs in particular. Also, I used to be a base for cheerleaders, I am strong enough to handle large dogs, and gentle enough for smaller breeds. Additionally, since I work in social media - it's almost impossible for me not to snap a video or photos of your dog - or two! Thanks so much for considering me as your sitter. Feel free to DM me should you have any questions or concerns. I work completely remotely so I will be with your pets virtually all day as my schedule allows! They’ll be sure to get lots of love and cuddles. I can easily crate your dog if needed, though since I can work remote I love to let them roam free and stretch their legs and paws!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old and have always had a love for animals. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with making sure dogs are fed on their regular schedules, taken out for walks, given plenty of playtime, and receive the attention and care they need. I enjoy taking dogs to the park, playing catch, and keeping them active and happy. I also have experience teaching basic commands and helping dogs learn to listen and follow directions. I currently have a Husky and a Pomeranian, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I understand that every pet is unique, and I’ll always do my best to make sure your furry family member feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! 🐾❤️ I am currently a part timer, so I will have plenty of time to come and spend time with your pups. I am available on weekends. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I will follow your instructions for feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and any other special care. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I can take them for walks, play with them, and keep them company while you’re away. I also understand how important it is to respect your home and keep everything clean and secure.

I booked Aaron to pick up our dog from our wedding venue to take her home and he was great! He showed up early just in case of traffic, got her home, fed her, and walked her too which was a bonus. Really appreciate everything he did to make our special day easy!

We walked Butch together so that I could see how she handled him since I was a bit nervous, as this is my first time hiring a walker, but Justina was very polite and attentive to my directions. I'll be having her walk Butch regularly since he seems to like her a lot!

Paulina has been wonderful with our two dogs! She is caring, reliable, and always so attentive to their needs. It’s easy to see how much she genuinely loves animals, and our dogs absolutely adore her. We especially appreciate how patient and gentle she is with them. She treats our dogs with so much love and care, and we always feel at ease knowing they’re in such good hands. We’re very grateful to have Paulina caring for our dogs and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and loving dog walker!

Christian walked our dog twice daily while we were on vacation. He was prompt for all walks and patient with our energetic dog. Our dog was excited to see him! Christian was available with late notice after our original dog walker went AWOL. We are so thankful for him!!
