About: Hello! I am new to this app, but I have taken care of dogs since I was 16 (3 years) in all forms: dropping in (x) times a day into owner’s home, bringing dog to my home (with my mom and dad that love dogs too!), staying in owner’s home, and dog walking. I am new to this app! am home for the summer from college at University of Tennessee, Knoxville. I have a flexible schedule and want to spend my summer doing what I love- being with dogs! I have a fenced yard in a pet-friendly neighborhood right off the interstate- so I am an easy commute away from all directions in the Nashville vicinity. I have a cavalier in my home, Scout, who is extremely gentle, quiet, and can’t get enough of being around other dogs.

“So grateful to have Becca walk Millie for me a few times a week. She always makes sure she gets in some fun playtime! I know Millie loves the days she gets to see Becca! She also is great about sending the cutest pictures which make my workday so much brighter”

I am happy to take care of your dog no matter what size! I can administer medication if needed. Happy to take your pup on walks, play, brush, feed, anything they need! I work a hybrid job and typically am in office tuesdays-thursday. I can stop in before and after work, otherwise I should be able to stop in at your preferred time unless I let you know otherwise! I prefer to not stay overnight or have super early morning/late night visits. My pets are truly the center of my world and I will treat yours as the same! I will not be taking care of pets in my own apartment, but I can feed, play, walk, brush, clean as specified. I will also send any and all pictures because I know your miss your babies when you’re away as much as I do!

About: Hi! I just graduated from college and I’m looking for a fun way to stay busy and earn some extra money this summer. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also helped take care of other people’s pets, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust. I’m available for daily walks, feedings, and playtime—whatever your pet needs! I am available throughout the summer on most weekdays and weekends. My schedule is very flexible to accommodate you and your pet’s needs! Please let me know a few days in advance. Your pets safety and well-being are my top priority! I prefer to take of dogs in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable and secure.

About: I once brought our family dog back to life by administering CPR. True story. This is the level of trust you can place in me to care for your beloved companions! Not only is their safety guranteed, but I genuinely value my time with all pets under my care. I will always go above and beyond to provide a safe, upbeat and loving environment that meets their needs and yours. Belly rubs guranteed. My schedule may vary. However, early mornings and late nights are guranteed. Reach out to discuss how we can personalize our visits to suit your needs. When caring for your pet in your home, I prioritize establishing trust and familiarity, respecting your pet's routine and surroundings. I maintain clear communication with you, ensuring that your pet's needs are met and any concerns addressed promptly. Whether it's feeding, grooming, or simply providing companionship, I approach each interaction with patience, kindness, and a genuine love for animals.

About: I have owned animals from dogs/cats to reptiles and birds. Doing this to hang out with animals without getting my own as I travel for work right now. Message me to negotiate price, very negotiable. I mostly work from home but do go into the office every now and then. When I am caring for an animal in my home I will not be going into the office unless totally needed, my entire schedule can be devoted to your pet. I like to try and make pets feel comfortable, I know their owner leaving can be stressful and I want to try and mitigate that. I am not the type to feed them and run, I will be spending significant amounts of time with your pet whether that’s in my home or yours.

Southside dog parents share their Rover experiences
Adriana responded quickly when I checked for availability. She was timely when picking up Daisy to walk, checking food and water, and letting me know how she was doing. I didn’t have to worry that my dog was getting good care while I had to be out of town.

Isabel is communicative, on time, and kind with my somewhat anxious dog! She is flexible and willing to work with my time needs and schedule. I highly recommend her!

Faith was great! She responded to a very last minute request to walk Dewey when another walker canceled. Would absolutely use her again.

Kaitlyn was great with my foster dog, Nellie. She’s very communicative and flexible, I’d trust her with one of my dogs again.

Sophia did great! We were gone for almost a week. During that time Sophia consistently walked, fed, loved and sent pictures of it all 3 times a day. We have 2 dogs and they can be a handful. I highly recommend Sophia!

Literally my favorite dog walker on this app. No lie. She sent so many photos and really cared for my dog! She seriously went above and beyond. I’m so grateful. I will be recommending her on my apartment building community app. I’m telling you- HIRE SYDNEY. You will not regret it!!

Kianna was very prompt in accepting a last minute service and communicated well during her visit. Will be booking in again in the future.

I will definitely book Harrison again! He was able to see my pup and walk her short notice. He was on time and provided good communication with me! Thanks Harrison!

Thank you so much for the short notice being able to walk Luna!! You were so accommodating and communicated so well! We will use you in the future whenever we need someone to walk her! Highly recommend Phoebe !!

Very thankful for Mercedes for helping out with my puppy. She did an excellent job communicating and was patient with my dog.

I’m so grateful to have Ella walking my dog Suzie! She is great about communicating and I always come home to a happy pup.

Took great care of hazy! She sent me pictures and let me know when she got there and left! Will definitely use Starr again!
