“If you’re looking for someone to watch your dogs who is not only trustworthy but genuinely loves animals, Amanda is the perfect choice. She treats every dog like it’s her own with kindness, patience, and so much love. Whether it’s keeping them on a routine, giving them plenty of playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and cared for, she goes above and beyond. Amanda is incredibly responsible and attentive, and you can truly relax knowing your pets are in such great hands. She’s the type of person who takes pride in doing things the right way and always shows up with a positive, caring attitude. I wouldn’t trust anyone more with my dogs.”

“Robert was amazing! He helped me at the last minute with my two dogs. He was extremely good with my boys, and they're not easy to deal with. I highly recommend Robert!!”

“Awesome interaction, gave picture updates of the walks.”

“She is amazing. It was a very last minute dog walk and she was more then willing to help out. My dog was able to pee and poo and let out some energy. She was understanding of some confusing things and helped out with supplying some fresh water to my dog. I am definitely rebooking her again!”

“As Mallory’s mother, I have watched her with animals all her life. She loves animals of all kinds and has had a plethora of pets- from dogs and cats to beta fish, ferrets and rabbits. Taking care of animals seems to come naturally to Mallory. I’m not going to lie, when Mallory was a child, I wasn’t completely on board with the idea of a ferret joining our household. However, she convinced her father and I with a thorough explanation of how to care for those critters from a library book that she’d checked out of the school library. As an adult, Mallory continues to love and care for animals. Her baby, Bing Bong, is a standard poodle who has the best life of any pet I know! He eats only the best food and vitamins (well researched by Mal) and even has regular lessons in socialization. In short, Mallory is the best, most caring animal lover I know!”

About: I currently live on a farm with 2 dogs, 3 cats, with other typical farm animals. I have a huge love for all animals! I especially grew up raising dogs and started training our puppies at the age of 11. I am a Photographer in/around Knoxville and currently have a flexible schedule. I absolutely love all types on animals and I’m constantly outside with them. I live on a farm with many animals and taking care and spending time with them is the highlight of my day! I have experience in caring for many different farm animals, dogs, cats, hamsters, etc. I’m also able to follow special instructions for your pet like mix medicine in with food, or mix in wet food, etc.

“Melinda has “doggy daycare” cared for my two dogs for the past three weeks. I love sending them to her so much more than a big typical doggy daycare. They get lots of activity, don’t have to stay in cages, and she loves them! She sends me pictures throughout the day too. She is so good with animals. I highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Sherri came over to dog sit my “Dunkin”. Dunkin is a 73 lb labradoodle (not a little guy). As big as Dunkin is, he is still a puppy and has energy to burn. After greeting me and saying goodbye to Sherri, he promptly laid down and took a nap. My puppy Dunkin took a nap!! Sherri played outside with him and played fetch (his favorite game) and actually tired him out!! Dunkin and I highly recommend Sherri, she is wonderful!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was 10 years old. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I am open to all ages, sizes, and breeds of dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my own energetic dog, Cookie, every day. I’m currently taking a gap year, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet I look after. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding, or just companionship, I’m able to adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs and keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine when caring for pets in their own home. I follow all instructions carefully—feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“To Whom It May Concern, I am thrilled to recommend Randi Jackson as a reliable and caring dog walker and sitter for my dogs, Esme and Bear. Randi has been an incredible help, consistently showing responsibility, attentiveness, and genuine care for my dogs. Randi’s ability to connect with Esme and Bear is remarkable. They are always excited to see her, and I have full confidence in her ability to handle them with care and professionalism. Whether it’s daily walks or overnight stays, Randi ensures they are well-exercised, comfortable, and happy. She is attentive to their individual needs and always communicates with me, giving me peace of mind when I’m away. I highly recommend Randi to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for their pets. She has been an invaluable part of my dogs’ lives, and I am truly grateful for her dedication and care. Sincerely, Jessica Brown”

About: I have taken care of my own dogs, neighbors dogs, and friends dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I am always all of their first calls when they need some last minute walks, feedings, or overnight sittings. I am an independent contractor so I set my own schedule outside of dog walking so I am always pretty available. I am also a college athlete so my schedule can be fairly hectic during the day, but my evenings are always wide open for lots of attention and play time When caring for your dog in your home, I will make sure to follow all instructions you have left me and ensure I contact you if I have any questions that could put your dogs safety at risk. I want to ensure their owner has peace of mind that they’re fur baby is being well taken care of. I am a college student and a student athlete so mornings/afternoons can be a little hectic. I am still able to provide some play time and attention with that. However, my evening are always wide open to provide even extra attention and play time for the dogs. I always make sure to keep them a priority in my schedule either way! I want to make sure to follow the dog’s normal routine to put them in as much ease as possible. Being left with a stranger can sometimes be stressful, but I will be sure to try and ease that for them.

About: 5+ years of experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and caring for cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities. I provide reliable, loving care — whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just relaxing with your pets. After going through chemotherapy, I’ve grown even closer to my own pets — they’ve been attached to my hip these past 8 months and have brought me so much comfort. I hope to offer that same sense of safety, love, and security to your pets while you’re away. 🐾 I recently finished chemotherapy and am using this time to focus on healing and getting back on my feet. Because of that, I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for pet sitting and drop-ins — other than a few doctor appointments here and there. I’m happy to work with you to schedule visits that fit your needs! 🐾 🏡 1️⃣ Respect the Home Always enter/leave carefully — lock doors, follow instructions. Keep the home tidy: clean up any pet messes, wipe paws, don’t leave supplies out. Follow any house rules (off-limits areas, couch use, etc). 🐕🐈 2️⃣ Meet Pet’s Basic Needs Feed and provide fresh water exactly as instructed. Clean litter boxes (cats) or yard/pads (dogs) each visit. Check that pets are safe and comfortable (temperature, bedding, toys). 🎾 3️⃣ Exercise & Enrichment Walk dogs according to client’s request (time, distance, leash style).

“Shelby is amazing with special needs dogs! My Maggie is insulin dependent diabetic and extreme anxiety and I won’t leave her with anyone but Shelby!”

“I can't say enough out Chloe and her love for animals. Not only does she have several of her own that she loves but she loves each and every one she comes in contact with. Chloe really gets to know your pets by spending time with them. Chloe is great with walking and keeping your dogs entertained while you are away. If Chloe is available during the time you are looking you are in luck!!!”

“Meg is great with all pets and is a huge animal lover. She would be super attentive and wonderful with your pets and definitely treat them like her own. Your pet would be in excellent hands and you would be blessed with her care. Keith T.”

About: I've taken care of many different dogs, from chihuahuas, Pyrenees, weenie dogs, all the way to cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and more. I love animals, and I am willing to learn more about different breeds too! As of right now I am not working since I am a stay at home mom, so she is my working buddy (six months will not let play with the pets) so I am free pretty much anytime besides Sunday morning; because I like going to church. I can set up whatever routine you choose at your home, whether that is crating or letting them sleep out the couch, and so forth. I cannot do sitting at my house since I have large dogs that are protective.

“I've had Allie watch my dogs a few times. Every time she watches them, I know they are in fantastic hands. I don't have to worry about my girls and know they'll be happy pups every minute with her. Allie treats them as if they were her own dogs.”

“Martha is an animal lover and has a mini farm with lots of amazing animals that she treats with the upmost of care. She is an amazing kind, loving person who is very responsible very respectful and would do a great job taking care of your pet.”

“Emma did an amazing job caring for Olive for 5 days while we were out of town. Emma followed all of our directions and did so much more! Olive got long walks outside and lots of cuddle time inside. Emma provided updates and pictures that showed that Olive was feeling very at home. I am always nervous bringing Olive to a new sitter, but I immediately felt at ease that Olive would be happy with Emma. Emma was very responsive to texts and super easy to work with. She is very sweet and kind and it is easy to see that she loves dogs. I would be very happy to have Emma watch Olive anytime we need to be away. (Funny side note - we don’t often play fetch with Olive, but obviously she did that quite a lot with Emma because since she has been home she keeps bringing us toys that she wants us to throw for her. I don’t think we are responding up to Olive’s new standard.🤣).”
