About: I love hanging out with dogs and would be happy to give them love while you are away. I am detail-oriented and will follow your directions to a tee. I also love snapping cute pics of your pet to keep you updated! I am a big animal lover! I have helped care for family members and neighbors pets my whole life. I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky. During undergrad, I fostered dogs and volunteered through the Lexington Humane Society. This work was so fulfilling and allowed me to provide shelter dogs with socialization and get them adopted! I would love to hang out with your furry friend(s) while you are away! I recently moved to Knoxville to start my Masters program at the University of Tennessee in August. I have classes at night Monday-Thursday and will be working 4 hours a day Monday-Friday, so I have flexibility to care for your pet(s)! My weekly schedule is as follows (with some variations as required.) Monday: work 9am-1pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Tuesday: work 1pm-5pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Wednesday: work 9am-1pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Thursday: work 1pm-5pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Friday: work 9am-1pm Saturday/Sunday: no set time commitments Through my time with the Lexington Humane Society, I completed basic trainings that covered dog behavior, body language, socialization, some basic training, and basic health info. This knowledge helps me provide the best support while I am working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and behaviors. I am not a trainer! However, this knowledge has helped me to better understand different dogs unique needs.

About: I have cared for dogs personally for the majority of my life. I also gained professional experience working at a doggie daycare where I got to play and cuddle with a variety of dogs! At the doggie daycare, I learned some helpful methods on how to handle and evaluate a dog’s temperament for a group setting. I’m currently working part-time and am available on the weekends from 12 pm till 11 pm! Due to having classes during the week, my best time to work is the weekends. I live in an apartment complex that is pet friendly and live just down the hill from a dog park. My roommate also has a dog to keep yours company!

About: Hi! I’m Caitlyn and I have been an animal lover my whole life! As someone with pets of their own, I understand wanting the best care for your fur babies. I have experience pet sitting dogs and cats of all ages, sizes and breeds, as well as giving medications to those who need special care. I work full-time, but I still have time to care for your pets! I am available weekday evenings 4pm-9pm and various weekend times to fit your needs! Pets are most comfortable in their own familiar surroundings. While you are away, I will keep your pets on their normal routine and maintain cleanliness and safety of their space.

About: I am an experienced pet owner! I grew up with dogs, ferrets, snakes, lizards, fish, frogs, parakeets, and much more. I also volunteered a lot of my time caring for, and walking dogs at the animal shelter. Nothing brings me greater joy than watching my friends’ fur babies when they are out of town (which they frequently ask me to do!). I am a HUGE animal lover. I have excellent communication skills, so you will never have to wonder how your baby is doing - I’ll be sending you daily updates while they are in my care. :) I treat every pet like family! I let them roam freely (depending on your preference!), and make sure they go potty and get exercise. I love cuddling and making sure they feel special!

“Bailey was absolutely amazing!! We felt so at ease and not worried about our dog while traveling for a week. She loved on him like he was her own and ensured he had lots of play time. She followed all of our care instructions to the letter. We so appreciated all the picture updates as well. We will absolutely hire her any time she is available! Cannot recommend Bailey enough!”

“Thank you so much Stephanie! Appreciate the detailed updates and pictures. Fur babies seemed comfortable with you which is especially important for Lenny who is really shy - thank you!”

“Becky was great! She took great care of our two pups while we were out of town for a wedding. It was our first time leaving them with a new sitter and she put us right as ease. She sent a ton of photos and kept us up to date at all times. Well for sure use her again next time we travel. Thank you, Becky!”

About: I care for your pets like they’re my own. Patience and safety and super important to me. I have experience with puppies, senior pets and administering medications, so I know how to adjust care for every age and personality. Whether it’s playtime, walks or cozy cuddles. I make sure your pet feels happy, secure and right at home. My goal is simple: fun, safe and stress-free care for your furry family! Typically I end work around 4 p.m. Wednesday- Sunday. And depending on how far away or the type of care needed I can check in throughout the day. I have Monday and Tuesday’s off usually so I would be able to watch over pets during those days with all day availability. Working in whatever environment to make the pet feel at peace while their owners are away is super important to me. Mostly, staying with them and watching if anything abnormal is happening. Communication is also key, so taking photos of their day to ensure a safe and enjoyable time is vital.

About: I grew up in Knoxville, recently retired and relocated back to Knoxville from Florida. I have cared for dogs since I was 10 and have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. I will treat your furry baby like my own. Give me instructions for meds and I can administer no problem. I am very flexible and available to assist you with any needs for your fur babies, Just let me know what you need and when. I currently own two rescues and I am a dog lover!! I’d be happy to babysit your babies at your house or do drop ins whenever needed. Just let me know what your baby enjoys and I will make it happen

“Kennedy has been a huge help to us on multiple occasions. Our dogs adore her! We are so grateful to have someone we know we can count on to take care of our pets for us while we’re away.”

About: I go beyond basic pet sitting by building trust with both pets and owners. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s helping reinforce puppy training, keeping up with high-energy dogs, or providing calm, compassionate care for senior pets, I always make sure your pet feels cared for and comfortable. I’ll be starting a full-time job, so my weekday availability will be a little more limited. I’ll still have some availability throughout the week and on weekends depending on my schedule! In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, meals on schedule, and, of course, lots of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away.

About: Medically retired Veteran and stay at home dad with lots of time on my hands to care for fur kids and keep a watchful eye on them. I have dog sat for friends' pets and personal pets that I've owned for over 30 years. I don't currently have another job. So, aside from medical appointments, I don't have any issues with daily or weekly routines. I should be able to conform to any and all needs. I always care for every pet as though that pet were my own. I know how sensitive each pet can be, so I try my best to keep that in mind when dealing with someone else's pet.

About: I have taken care of dogs that needed to take medicine and have dog-sat one hybrid dog for the past 9 years. Depending on the amount of time I am able to have with the pets, we often go for 3-4 hour long walks/runs a day. I do work full time away from home. I’m looking to make some extra money while in-between jobs so I can pay bills. But I am extremely passionate about animal care, and I’m hoping if this turns into something long-term then both you and I will be happy. I am unable to provide home services through my own place because my complex does not allow animals. But the environment I can provide is walks, jaunts to dog parks and—if permitted—hikes on fun trails.

“She took such good care of our four cats. Our youngest cat is skittish around strangers. I figured that he would hide from her the whole time. But he eventually felt comfortable to play laser with her. Yay!”

About: I have been caring for and loving cats, dogs, birds and once a baby skunk since i was a kid. I love all animals domestic and wild. I have raised batches of kittens and found wonderful homes, cared for sick cats/dogs, raised and rehabilitated a orphaned baby skunk, and volunteered with various types of animals. I have had a life filled with laughter and love because of the animals in my life. I will love and do all that is needed to protect your baby while in my care to give you peace of mind while you are away. Welcome to my pet sitting service! As a dedicated professional with a passion for caring for both animals and children, I understand the importance of providing a nurturing environment. Currently, I work full-time at an elementary school, where I cherish the opportunity to support young minds and furry friends alike. I am available to care for your pets during evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. As a homebody, my commitment to the well-being of your beloved companions is my top priority. Whether they're two-legged or four-legged, I treat every pet with love and compassion. Let me help provide a safe and comfortable experience for your pets while you are away! I can care for your pet in your home and follow all instructions to keep your baby safe and happy. Your baby will be my first priority.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a teenager for neighbors, family friends, and for the families I provided childcare for when they were out of town. This care included baths, walks, feeding, letting them out, and play time! I enjoy being silly and cuddling with pups and making them feel loved. My career allows me to set my own hours, so I have flexibility during the day to come visit your pets! I can come over up to 3 times a day most days and at least 2 times, depending on the day of the week. I am available most weekends to petsit! When providing pet care at other people's homes, I strive to not only provide physical safety but also a feeling of safety and comfortability for your pets by being a kind and gentle presence. I am also conscientious about watching the pets when I put them outside, even if the yard is well-fenced. I will intentionally spend time playing with your pets every day, so they are not lacking in love when you return home to them!

About: I’ve owned 2 dogs, now help with my dad’s dog, have watched several seasons of dog training shows and just genuinely like animals. We have chickens, a cat and my dad’s (once upon a time service) dog with us as well. I’m currently caretaking for my father with the help of caregivers and do not have major obligations during the day and have my youngest still at home with me so I’ll have plenty of time to dog walk or just check in on them while you are away. We currently have my dad’s service dog and I had two dogs growing up whom I loved dearly. I have also had cats and my daughter currently has one whom I care for since my daughter is young. I feel each individual person cares for their pets in the way that is best for them. I will be sure to care for your animal in the way you believe is best!

“Cassandra was absolutely wonderful with my kitty! She was so patient with my shy girl, sent pictures and videos every day, and took amazing care of her. I 10/10 recommend her for pet care!!”

About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.
