I am skilled in positive reinforcement techniques, ensuring that young dogs develop good habits early on. Additionally, I provide compassionate, attentive care tailored to senior pets’ unique needs, including administering medications and supporting mobility. My dedication to personalized, loving attention ensures every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I’m currently working part-time remotely , so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups or kitties! Right now I’m available 24/7 because I am saving to having a child! When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I ensure their comfort, safety, and well-being. I maintain feeding schedules, provide fresh water, administer medications if needed, and engage in playtime and exercise.

I communicate regularly with clients, updating them on their pets’ health and behavior, ensuring peace of mind while they're away.

About: I've had dogs my entire life - 13 different dogs ranging from Toy Poodles to Fila Brasileiros. I am calm and patient and understand that no two dogs are alike. I personally have an easily excitable, 50lb dog, so I always try to be one step ahead of any distractions on walks. Dog walking/sitting is my way to get the opportunity to be around more pups while helping out their parents as well. Win-win! I work from home Monday-Friday and have a flexible schedule that can be quickly adjusted to fit my walks. Weekends are completely open for walks/drop-ins. I follow all rules/requests - provide updates, and if something seems off, I will always reach out. I cannot host dogs in my own home, but I will always treat your home with respect and manage my time to ensure no boundaries are crossed. I can crate/gate your dog according to your rules if needed.

“Savannah was super friendly and easy to talk to, and is definitely a dog person. My dog warmed right up to her! She was consistently on time and did a fantastic job caring for our fur babies. I love the pictures and video she sent. Made our vacation much more pleasant knowing our animals were cared for.”

About: Animals are my absolute passion! I am currently a major in biology and I have 3 years combined working with animals from dog boarding facilities and veterinary clinics. In my free time I have been pet sitting for years as well! Both dogs and cats are in good hands! I work part time with a flexible schedule so it is easy for me to make time to accommodate! It is preferred that there is a notice, so I can make changes to my schedule as needed In my clients home I do exactly what is instructed to me and respect the boundaries that are set by the client. And of course, leave the animals happy and healthy.

About: As I was growing up, my parents- before they passed- would get different pets to help my sisters and I learn responsibility. We would have all kinds of pets such as; dogs, cats, fishes, hamsters, etc. I love being able to entertain pets and care for them! I’ve had a cat for about two years and I’ve recently adopted a dog! I am currently studying classic psychology, which helps me understand training! I’m hoping that having my own dog will help me grow and learn more about myself and my career! I am working a full-time job, but I’m also trying to support a younger sister! I can do more walks on Monday, but I’m also available Tuesdays through Fridays for evenings! At my home, I have kept my cat at free range! She enjoys most of her days on her cat tree near a window to sun bath. However, recently my cat has made my personal room her own personal room! My cat and dog are taking their time to get to know each other before they are left unsupervised! With my clients’ pets I will take care of them as if they were my own! I know that my own pets bring me so much joy and happiness, and I want to help my clients’ pets do the same for their owners!

About: I am a single middle age compassionate, loving female who will absolutely show your dog or cat the most love and affection he or she has ever known! I do not have children and I believe our pets are a reflection of our own soul and speak to us through the way they interact with us. If we have had a bad day, they know. If we have had a good day, they know that too! This is my only job so my schedule is pretty open to meeting the needs of you and your fur babies. I look forward to meeting you and your precious pooch or kitty for lots of love! I am a retired veteran so caring for your fur baby is my #1 priority. Check my schedule on the Rover app. Let me be your preferred sitter! I can accommodate your pet by house sitting in your home. I feel that pets thrive in their own environment and their own routines with the least amount of stress possible.

About: Hi! I’m Taylor - your pet’s new favorite human 🐾 I absolutely love all animals (big, small, furry, feathery - you name it!). I’ve been pet sitting dogs and cats for several years now, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do… it’s who I am. I have a background in emergency veterinary medicine, which means I’m calm under pressure and know how to recognize when something isn’t quite right. I currently work in general practice veterinary medicine, so I’m experienced with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra care. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, snuggles, medication, or just someone trustworthy to hang out with, I’ve got it covered. Your fur baby will be treated like family because that’s exactly what they are. ❤️ I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! Contact me for my availability! I always have a rotating schedule, and I am available at many different times. I look forward to messaging with you! I am very cautious and loving when it comes to your animal. I will do whatever is necessary to make sure your animal is in a safe environment :)

About: No animal is too much for me! Snakes, rats, anything! I love any species of animal, and no animal is too hard for me to take care of! The rarer the better! Just give me the rundown of what your pet needs, and I can do it! No matter how nasty or scary! I can care for pets as much as you need! Obviously, I need to take care of my little kitty, Binx, but I will always find time for your pets as well! Any pet is as precious as my own to me! I care for my kitty, Binx, like he is my own son. He is spoiled, and everyone loves him! He is the kindest kitty and was raised to know what and what not to do. He's a smart little fella, and the way I raised him is definitely a huge factor in this.

About: I'm currently a stay at home mom of an 8 year old girl. We have a dog of our own right now that is a Corgi/shepard mix named Harley. I've always had dogs and cats my entire life and love taking care of animals and going on walks with them. I am originally from NJ and just moved to Tn in April. I worked at an animal shelter in NJ where I took care of the dogs and some newborn kittens. I've don't have much experience with dogs with disabilities but that won't stop me from wanting to work with them. My dog Harley is a very friendly dog and loves to play so if your dog is friendly she'd love to meet them too!

About: Hi! I’m currently a DPT student, which means my days can be busy—but spending time with animals is something I genuinely look forward to. I’ve always had a love for pets and understand how important it is to know they’re in good hands. Even with a full academic schedule, I’m organized, responsible, and intentional with my time. When I’m with your pet, they’ll have my full attention—whether that’s getting their energy out on a walk or just relaxing and feeling comfortable at home. Pet care is also a meaningful way for me to help pay for school, so I’m grateful for every opportunity and take that responsibility seriously. Im a current physical therapy student but my summer class schedule is lighter. I don’t have full days of class so I have periods to leave for walking and potty breaks and I’m home most of the day Fri - Sunday now! If they are up for it, I can take them on trips around JC and to the dog park (I love off leash!) I can also be available for any overnight visits, and am usually free for a whole weekend. My apartment is close to downtown so has many walkable areas for your pets. There’s a big field next to my apartment that’s perfect for potty breaks. I can separate the upstairs from the downstairs if they need to be kept away from certain rooms, but they have plenty of room to roam in my apartment! In my clients home I can provide any services as needed such as walking them, playing in the yard, or crating.

“Aaron was absolutely wonderful with our two girls!!!! And we appreciate all the pictures and updates while we were away as I am definitely one of those worry dog moms!!!! We definitely know he will continue to use him as one of our girls is very picky on who she will poop for!!!! If you need anyone he is definitely the one!!!!!”

About: I owned a dog growing up and have always loved them. My husband and I don't have any pets of our own right now which makes it perfect for dog sitting because no one has to worry about their dog getting along with our pets. We take care of our friends animals all the time and they continually bring them back to our place because we take such good care of their dogs. I own my own business, and I work out of my house. That gives me the ability to make my own schedule, making your dog a priority. I love going on walks! I know all of the best parks and walking spots in the area to take your dog. I respect everyone's home and would only treat it with respect as if it were my own home. I would be happy to talk with anyone who is interested in using my services

About: I have lives and worked with all kinds of animals in all stages of live but I most work with seniors, dogs, and cats.. . I am a college student and I am not available until after 1 on weekdays. My weekends are typically always open. . . . . Unfortunately , I live in an apartment with a 1 pet policy and there is little space to accommodate anything other than a cat. .

About: I absolutely love dogs! Since I can’t have one while in college, pet sitting gives me the perfect opportunity to spend time with them. I have experience caring for my family’s dogs and would love to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, and care! I am a student at UK so I try to fit it into my schedule when I can! I dog sit on the side because I love it! I am open to caring for the dog however the owner needs me to! I am willing to take them to a park, give meds, go on walks, etc.

“Natasha has done WONDERFUL with my pup! She’s one of the few we’ve met that Bleu trusted right away and didn’t bark upon meeting her with me! She has been on time and Bleu seems to really be happy when I get home - so I know she’s doing great with her!”
