About Allison

5 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
My name is Allison and I am an industrial engineering student at the university of Tennessee. I have taken care of pets my whole life and since my dogs are at home, I am lonely here without them. I would love to give your sweet angel a perfectly safe and comfortable place to stay! No hard and cold floors, no barking from other dogs! Just special time feeling cared for and loved!

About Graham

I am a freshman at the university of Tennessee and I'm currently home in Memphis for winter break. I have a lot of experience with dogs, my family had a golden retriever when I was younger and now we have a 4 year old golden doodle. I can host dogs for a day or just a few hours, I can do at home check ups for most dogs and cats mostly, and I specialize in walking dogs, I love walking my golden doodle, Sydney, and I'd love to get paid to walk other people's dogs, I can take them to parks as well. My home is a good environment for dogs and I have a big backyard so the dogs will have plenty of room to play.

About Erin

10 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
My dogs are a part of my family and yours will be a part of mine too. I have had dogs (small and large) since I was 5 years old. I have worked as a dog sitter and as a dog walker both privately and for a professional service before. I love dogs way more than people and am definitely a "crazy dog lady". I am a psychology major at UTK and I bring my psychology training into how I interact with animals and humans. I know the best way for animals to learn and I make sure that I use positive reinforcement. I communicate kindly, but firmly. I have experience with dogs with special needs, e.g., medication, injections, special feeding needs. It would be an honor for me to take care of your furry family member. I know it can be hard to leave your pet when going away, I am honored that you would trust me with your pet.

About Karl

12 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hello, I have a beautiful German Shepard and a black and white cat. I also have a fish. I know what my pets mean to me and so know what your pets mean to you. I will do my best to take great care of them while you are away.

I have a lot of experience as a pet owner taking care of dogs, cats, fish, and gerbils. I also volunteer for Young Williams Animal Shelter.

I would do best coming to your home and doing house visits. I have to take care of my own pets as well so coming to you is best.

If you have questions please let me know. I look forward to working with your pets and providing a safe and nurturing environment for them.

About Bethany

4 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I love dogs. I have had a dog ever since I was a small child. I was the primary care taker of my dog back in college. After college I began to dog sit for friends and family (6 years), since I was not able to care for a dog with my busy schedule. Right now, I live in a small house and I don't have a backyard and cannot justify getting a dog of my own yet (especially since I LOVE large dogs). So instead, I would love the opportunity to love on your dog!

I am a high school teacher, so if you would like to book me during the week, I will not be around from 7:30am-4:00pm during the school year. On weekends, I mostly stay and care for your pet.

I prefer to dog sit at a dog's home because it gives them a sense of normalcy when their owner is away. That way I can try to keep them to their normal routine, as much as possible. Because of this, I do want to have time to come and meet your pup before a first sitting. This way we can make sure that your pup and I are a good match for each other. After a meet-&-greet, and one sitting, I am more than happy to do a sitting on shorter notice.

About Summer

2 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
I work at a zoo with various types of animals. I am great with animal care for exotics, as well as small animals. I also have experience with administering shots and medicine for specific needs. I have also interned at a veterinary hospital and can recognize illness.

**About my home/services**
I have a two door car to transport animals. I will not be offering in-home services, but am willing to walk dogs in my neighborhood if need be.

**About my neighborhood**
My neighborhood is located two miles from a dog park and has a walking trail. It is off a main road, but the neighborhood is quiet and large.

**What to expect**
I will be walking/running the dogs in a safe neighborhood (or your neighborhood of choice) and will also be able to take them to the dog park. I will also play fetch with them and allow them to have lots of cuddles and love afterwards.

**Special rules or requests**
I have no limitations with breed/gender/size. I have experience with breeds such as Great Danes, shitzu, and Akita. I have no limits and can handle strong willed breeds. I can also handle leash pulling without any issues. I am used to large breeds more than small breeds.

About Wyatt

10 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I love dogs! I couldn't imagine life without them. I've been providing pet care (sitting and walking) for about three years. I completed an accredited pet sitting and animal training course by Holly and Hugo. This included first aid for a variety of pets. I was also taught proper pet care and dog walking methods while volunteering at my local animal shelter. I've always had dogs of my own. I am very passionate about providing pets with the best possible care. I genuinely love caring for dogs!

I have cared for pets in kennel settings, home settings, and as a lifetime pet parent! I am trained in pet first aid and have a lot of experience with senior dogs.

I also enjoy caring for cats!

About Lisa

20 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I look forward to setting with your babies. While my house is not particularly set up for very senior dogs, my den is very well set up for them, and I have a gate to keep a senior away from steps and slick floors. Dogs must not be agressive with my 15 lb boy, I can give medicines and special care as needed. .
