Dog Walkers in Townsend, TN

About: My pets are not just my pets...they are my children, and your pet will get the exact same treatment in my home. They will cared for in what they need to live but also in what they need to feel loved. I will make sure your pet feels as comfortable as he/she can while you are away. I go above and beyond for my dog, so yours will get the exact same; i want them to feel like they have a person on their side while their actual person is away. I can simple groom (clip nails, trim paw hair, bathe, etc) if needed. I will also make sure you have a pic/text as an update during the day because I know you will miss them just as much as they miss you!

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, I ALWAYS give 110% when taking care of someone’s fur children! Pets are an important part of our lives! I have puppy training experience and love meeting and playing with new puppies! My own dog is diabetic and requires daily injections so I am very comfortable caring for senior and medically complex dogs. Open communication is important to me so we both know what to expect and I love sharing my time with your pets and sending photos so you know how much fun we are having! I have full time availability Monday through Friday and am available on the weekends as needed. I am excited to spend a lot of time throughout the week with pets! My chocolate Labrador retriever Ollie was diabetic. He received 26mL of insulin 2x a day along in the scruff of his neck with his food needing to be watered down due to it being a choking hazard. I would take care of ANY pet like I took care of him. I will stop in to check on your pets, play with them to get their energy out, snuggle with them, and make sure they have everything they need including walks, food, water, treats, play time, and medication.

About: Dogs have been a part of me since I was born. I have over 25 years of experience with many breeds, from pups to senior dogs. I’ve dealt with many issues relating to health, nutrition, surgeries (recovery), cancer treatments and more. Dogs generally gravitate to me and I’ve been blessed with their unconditional love my entire life. It truly is my passion to help you in any way I can with your special family member. I look forward to meeting you and your Dog! I’m currently available 7 days a week, 6am to 10pm for walking, playing, feeding, to give medications, etc. Also available to house/pet-sit overnight and extended stays while you travel. I’m a firm believer in caring for your dog in their own environment. It’s less stress for your pet. I follow your pets routine per your instructions. In certain situations, I will consider taking a pet in to my home for care if needed, tho prefer coming to you. I’m also available to travel world-wide with you and your pet if needed. Think of me as your Dog’s PA.

About: I am a life long pet owner who loves to watch my friend’s and family’s pets when they’re in need. I have taken care of dogs, cats, and bunnies, including fostering a cat for a friend for a few months while she was away. I am a fairly active person, so I like to go on long walks and play with very energetic animals, but I can also appreciate those who just like company or want their own space. Learning the habits, needs, and quirks of each animal is my favorite part of the job, so I can be sure your animal will get the exact kind of care they need to be happy while you’re away😊 I currently have an open schedule so I will have all the time in the world to hang out with your fur children! The only days that are busy for me are Sundays, but I will still have some time available. I will be going back to work after the new year and will be working second shift, so will have the majority of the day available then as well! I like to stick to the routines that your animals are already used to following as to reduce anxiety as much as possible while you’re away! I definitely think it’s important to give extra love and attention to show that I am a friend and am there to take care of them.

“Thanks for accepting Pablo on such a short notice. You have been excellent and provided very quick updates about our baby throughout his stay. Apologies for the mistakes on his end. You have been just super.”

About: I grew up on farms with lots of animals and always took care of them. I have a deep love for animals and making sure they're happy and healthy. I understand what they need and enjoy keeping them playful and active. I'm currently in college in the mornings and working part-time on the weekends, but I can definitely fit my schedule to anything! I have a strong work ethic and am very organized, so balancing different responsibilities comes naturally to me. Plus, I absolutely love spending time with dogs and making sure they're happy and well-cared for. I don’t have any pets at the moment, but I live in an apartment with a lot of green spaces. You don’t have to be worried about safety. I will take care of them! For me dogs and cats are part of the family!

We live on 10 acres and way off the road so they love roaming the countryside with us! It is a join to watch them play

About: From the time I was born, animals have been a part of my life. My pets are my family and yours will be treated the same. I have a wide range of experience when it comes to animals and care for much more than dogs and cats. That includes….saltwater and freshwater aquariums, hedgehogs, rabbits, reptiles, farm animals such as chickens and goats. I will also water your plants, bring in your mail, and set out your trash cans. I work from home and have a flexible schedule and will make your pet a priority 24/7. Your pet will have lots of love and attention. I do not place them in a crate like they do at a boarding facility. They will be able to sit on the couch if they desire! I have a large yard and allow them to get the exercise they need. I live just across from Greenway and will take them on daily walks.

About: Vacationing in the Smokies? Live in the area? My name is Rylie and I am located in Townsend, TN right by the Smoky Mountains National Park. I am more than happy to walk your dog around the block, go on an adventure on the trails, or just stop in while you are out! I strive for professionalism and will give my 100% to keep your pet happy and healthy and your home/accommodation safe and respected. I have lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, livestock, etc so I am also experienced in veterinary first aid. I have also cared for insects, reptiles, a small vivarium, and many houseplants and gardens if your plants or other critters need a check in too! Monday, Thursday, Friday I am available until 3 pm and Saturday until 2 pm. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I am available all day. I work an evening shift so I am unavailable in the evenings except Tuesday and Wednesday. I am a full time RVer with pets, so I understand pet care needs while traveling or working. I care for everyone's pet as if they were my own, and stick to their normal routine and requests from the owner as much as possible. My campground has a dog park, hiking trail, and river for our dogs to play in, and if you are nearby these may be available for your dog to enjoy as well. I have an active, young lab/Shar pei mix and an older Havanese, so I can adjust to the needs and capabilities of dogs for walks and activities. They are both great on a leash and long line, and my lab mix enjoys a good play date!

“Very communicative and took pictures while on the walk with my 3 babies. I will be using her again.”

About: We have cared for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. We do have experience in medication administration for animals. We are excited to serve you and your fur-family! My wife and I work full-time jobs but are available before and after work as well as during the lunch hour to ensure your dogs and/or cats are fed and taken care of! During the summer, Cody is available all day because of being an educator and having a summer break. If boarding with us, we have a fenced-in yard where our three dogs run around and play! If your dog is a digger or runner, we also have a run that your dog can be hooked up to remain in the yard while also providing maximum playtime. For drop-in visits, we will ensure that any happy accidents are cleaned up, your dog remains on the food plan that you have, and will give them time outside to use the bathroom.

About: With a lifetime of pet care expertise, I bring personalized love, care, and attention to every animal I care for! I have experience with senior dogs and puppies and will be sure to meet any needs required for their wellness and happiness! As a high school student and sports player, my daily routine is busy, but I prioritize pet care by offering services during weekdays after 5 pm and on the weekends. Preparing for a future in animal science, I am passionate about providing quality care for dogs, ensuring they receive attention, exercise, and love. I will tailor my schedule to accommodate both my academic and athletic commitments, ensuring that I can offer reliable care while continuing to pursue my education and sports activities. I will gladly follow any special instructions you may have for your dog’s unique needs in feeding, watering, walking, and playtime. I will strive to make you and your doggy as happy as possible while you’re apart!

About: I worked as a Kennel Technician for six years and as a Veterinary Assistant for three. I have experience with both small and large animals. I currently have 5 dogs, 2 cats, 13 rabbits, 8 horses, 10 goaties, and 2 chickens. I have raised and care for animals all my life and tend to have a good repore with most. When looking to my pricing, pricing is dependent on distance traveled and bathing rates start at $25. I typically use Fresh N’ Clean shampoo, but can use whatever is preferred. I have experience caring for shy/uneasy pups, as well as pups on both ends of the age spectrum. I currently work part time, so my availability is rather flexiible. It is a lot easier for me to do drop in visits when the stop is closer to me 😊 MY pets have free run of our yard, however for anyone else’s pet, I would either leash them or if the yard is fenced, let them run there. It’s important to stay outside with them to monitor and make sure the pets aren’t escape artists.
