Dog Walking Rocky Top

About: Hi, I'm Nicole! With over 10 years of dog care experience and three rescue pups of my own (two Great Pyrenees and a Beagle/Lab mix). I provide your pets with the utmost love, safety, and attention. ​Your pup will enjoy a fully fenced, 300+ ft yard with plenty of room to run and play. Plus, I'll send regular photo updates so you always have total peace of mind while you're away. While I work Mondays through Thursdays, my schedule opens up every Thursday night through Sunday evening. I’d love to take care of your pups for weekend stays and walks! Your pup becomes part of the family! They’ll have access to a fully fenced, 300+ foot yard with endless room to run, play, and explore alongside my friendly dogs. From Thursday evening through Sunday evening, I’m dedicated entirely to their care, ensuring plenty of playtimes, cozy spots to relax, and constant supervision.

About: I have nearly 12 years of professional experience working with dogs as a groomer and trainer, along with a background in veterinary care and animal handling. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, including puppies, seniors, large breeds, and pets who may need a little extra patience. My experience goes beyond basic pet sitting, I understand canine behavior, body language, safe handling, grooming needs, and the importance of keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. I also have experience with cats, horses, and farm animals. Whether I’m stopping by for a visit, going for a walk, or caring for your pets while you’re away, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I work professionally with animals throughout the week and plan my Rover bookings around my existing schedule so every pet receives the time and attention they deserve. My availability varies by day, but I only accept bookings I know I can reliably accommodate and I’m happy to discuss your pet’s normal routine before booking. I believe pets are most comfortable when their normal routine is respected. In your home, I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, crates, playtime, and household routines. My professional animal-care background has taught me to pay close attention to body language, behavior, and changes that may indicate stress or discomfort. I use calm, patient handling and never force interactions. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being always come first.

About: I've been taking care of 4 legged animals since I was 6 years old. I am able to understand animals body languages and feel out their vibe and match it I am looking for employment so they might be left alone for some time but I have a partner who works from home and can look out for them I have an unfenced yard, 5 dogs and 4 cats. Everyone gets along but take a second to warm up and get the excitement out

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was little and learned the importance of care needed especially with certain breeds. I personally have a Great Pyrenees mix now and he is my whole world. I grew up with Belgian Malinois, Labs, Cane Corsos, and Brindles. I have trained these dogs before and know how to read body language. I have been a dog sitter for even little fur-babies, such as yorkies and chihuahuas🩷 i love to go on long walks and play games with pups. I’m an ER Nurse and work three days a week, overall my pup gets all the attention he needs with the help of my spouse that takes care of him as well. We do long walks every morning and get tons of play time and socializing at public dog parks in the area. I will treat any animal as if it’s my own!! I take extra care of any fur-baby that I can, they are in my opinion our best friends and need to be treated as such. I will take all the time needed to do walks, play fetch, or do some fun training! If the pup is friendly and wants a friend I can even bring my own fur-baby so it’s a play date!

About: (PSA - I’m married! So if you don’t mind a couple watching your pets, we’ll be more than happy to serve you! The below agreement will still apply, of course; there’s just a second set of hands. I can also watch your home and pets solo if that’s what you prefer. 🥰) Home/Pet Owner Satisfaction Agreement: - My personal motto is "Leave it better than you found it." - Your home will be taken care as if it was my own. - I will do light cleaning and even landscaping if needed, so your home stays well kept. - Your pets will receive the attention they deserve. - I will do my absolute best to make sure their daily routine stays the same as if you were home. - I will send you all the pictures and updates, so you can have peace of mind that your pets are happy, safe, and well taken care of. - If you ask me to do something, it will get done. - When you return home, you'll be able to rest immediately because your home will be clean and your pets happy (though definitely excited to see you again!). I always don't trust people easily, and I usually rely on myself a lot to get things done. So it'd be scary for me to have a stranger taking care of my home and pets. I'd worry constantly over my furry family. That's why I try to immediately put you at ease during our initial conversation and respect your home and pet(s). I grew up with pets (hence the 20 years of experience), so I am definitely an animal lover. I've also house/pet sit here on Rover and by word-of-mouth referrals for two years now and already have 32 reviews of pleased home and pet owners. After reading the reviews on my profile and browsing the photo gallery (Get ready for cuteness overload and not from me!), here's how you can work with me: 1. Send me a message. 2. In that message, tell me about your pets, their needs, and what dates you'll be gone. 3. We'll adjust the pricing if needed. 4. Before finalizing the booking, I will meet you and your pet(s) in your home for you to walk me through the daily routine and see if we're a good fit. 5. If both parties agree, we confirm the booking. It's that easy! Thank you so much in advance for trusting me with your home and pet(s)! In return, I will strive to take the best care of your home and pet(s). So that you won't loose any sleep worrying if they're okay or not. That way, you can actually enjoy your vacation or fully focus on business and/or family while you're gone. I work remotely full time as a writer and freelance marketer, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I’m completely available any day for whatever you need and will be able to give your home and pet(s) the attention they deserve. I will follow whatever instructions you give to a T. As a creative person, my brain can be scattered, but having instructions in a text or list helps a ton. That way, you have utmost peace of mind that your home and pet(s) are receiving the best care!

About: I am 31 and I have worked in retail at a pet store and doggy daycare for the past two years. I previously worked at another dog kennel, where I would take care of dogs in the best way possible! I walk, exercise, feed, medicate, clean, and occasionally bathe dogs! I love my job and I have experienced different breeds and all personality types. I have dealt with senior dogs who must be medicate at certain times, to the smallest puppy who must eat at certain times. I am reliable, responsible, and will care for your fur baby like my very own! I will say I am NOT good with plants, sadly. Not sure why. I water them and let them get sun but they still die. I killed my cactus in about 3 days 😐 If you have plants to care for I will water them and make sure they get enough sunlight, but that hasn't worked so far, but I will do my best! I have certian availability and reliable transportation, as well as a love and passion for animal care. I am willing to travel to meet you and your fur baby. I follow your exact instructions when it comes to the care and needs of your pets. When it comes to your pet's safety, I work diligently to protect your fur baby and keep you at piece of mind!

“Lucy was great! She came over to meet my dogs before the day she would be coming to pet sit. One of my dogs has been known to be afraid of strangers when we're not home. She was able to give both of my dogs potty breaks and she updated me when she was finished at my house. 5 stars!!”
