“Jane is so sweet and she will take excellent care of your fur baby! She is great with sending updates and keeping you informed on how your pet is doing. I enjoy my vacations without worrying about my dog because I know he is being well taken care of. I would highly recommend Jane for your pet sitting needs!”
“Summer and her family were great for our two dogs. They sent tons of pictures, gave lots of love to them, and our dogs didn’t even want to leave their house at the end of our trip. Would absolutely recommend them for anyone!”
“Megan took care of our two boys while we were away for 6 nights and did such a great job!! We received pictures and updates every day and she was so quick to respond to any messages or updates from us. Super easy to work with and took great care of our dogs. Her dogs got along with ours so well. She’s our new go-to sitter for sure!”
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them. I’ve had a Labrador Retriever, a Golden Retriever, and a cat, so I have personal experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services in my hometown, making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I enjoy going on walks, playing, giving pets attention, and keeping them company. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I’ll treat your furry family members like my own! I’m a full-time pet sitter available on weekends and weekdays after 3 PM. I love spending time with animals and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine as much as possible and will always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! As a lifelong animal lover and full-time pet sitter, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect your home, and make sure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I want you to feel confident knowing your pets are in loving and dependable hands.
About: I have cared for cats and dogs my entire life! My family had multiple pets at all times growing up. I am a cat mom myself with shared custody with my twin sister. I offer a pet stranger free home with my own cats staying with my sister while I have guest pets. 🐈 I first began pet sitting in college and primarily serviced young adults and college students. Thus, I have always offered an affordable rate so that regular people can obtain pet sitting services without having to pay expensive boarding fees. 🐶 Although I just started using Rover, I have been sitting for years through friends, family, and referrals! I can provide references for those I have serviced in the past that have not been through the app. 🐈 I am a former President, Vice President, and class representative of the Animal Legal Defense Fund at the University of Tennessee College of Law. I am available any day of the week for boarding. Two night minimum required. 🐈 Currently, I am not accepting bookings over 2 months in advance. 🐈 For drop in visits and walks, I am available Mon-Fri between 11:30-1:30 p.m. and after 6 p.m. Available all day Saturday and Sunday beginning 10 a.m. 🐶 Drop off and pickups must occur between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 9:30 p.m. 🐈 Meet and greets must occur in the evening and are offered at Sutree Landing Park. Your pets become mine for a few days! I would care for them as if they were my own. I let pets staying in my home on the furniture and sleep in my bed. If you would like pictures of my home to see where your pet would be staying, feel free to ask! 🐈
“Emily was wonderful with Zola! I was stranded in Knoxville after my husband was hospitalized and Emily was able to take my dog on a last minute reservation and was flexible when I needed to adjust my pick-up time. I would defiantly use her again if I am in the area.”
“We could not have dreamed of a better place for Reese to stay while we traveled! From our initial Meet and Greet, we could see that Reese already had made good friends. We received daily updates on how our girl was doing, along with photos and videos, giving us peace of mind, knowing she was having the best time in a great home!”
“Maddie took exceptional care of our furbabies for a week while we were on vacation. Communication was 10/10 Highly recommend. Our babies were not stressed at all when we picked the up. Thank you Maddie for taking care such great care of them.”
“They took care of both our doggies for a week. Great communication with updates. I could tell they were getting the attention they needed. They responded immediately every time I asked how they were doing. That’s important! Also, the photos that they sent were nice to see that they were doing well. Thank you!!”
“We were very pleased with Dana, she sent pics of Bailey and kept us informed on how he was doing, from the pics that she sent to us, Bailey looked right at home and happy. Dana and her family took excellent care of our Bailey. We will definitely rebook with Dana if she’d love to have him back!”
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have always loved caring for them. Over the past five years, I’ve trained two puppies for my family and regularly help care for the pets of friends and relatives. At home, I have two friendly dogs and two older children who are wonderful with animals. We live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks, with a nearby park for extra playtime. I enjoy spending time outdoors with my dogs and relaxing with them at home. As a teacher, I have a flexible schedule with long breaks that allow me to give plenty of attention and care to the pets I watch. I truly look forward to meeting your furry family members and treating them like my own! I'm a teacher that has long breaks to be available for pet sitting during typical vacation times. We usually are up early for breakfast and morning playtime. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs that love other dogs. We enjoy playing out in the yard but also snuggling on the couch.
“Alexis was very easy to work with and has good communities. She sent me pictures and videos of my pup during her stay. My dog, Sigrid, had a blast playing all weekend and going to the dog park. She was worn out when I brought her home. Thanks you for taking good care of my Siggy girl, Alexis!”
“Lisa (and her sweet pup Simba) did an amazing job watching my two babies! I was beyond nervous about leaving my 4 month old with a sitter. I felt very comfortable with Lisa once I met her! My pups had an amazing time with Lisa and were very well taken care of! She sent me pictures and videos. She was very professional and thorough. I am definitely going to ask Lisa to watch them the next time I am in need of a sitter!”
About: Since I was a kid, I've been an avid animal lover of all creatures big and small. I've fostered, rehabilitated, and cared for countless animals (pets & wildlife) with a focus of kindness and respect first and foremost. I have hands-on experience with agression, reactivity, separation anxiety, high-energy, and sick/poor health. I currently have 2 dogs in my care (7 & 6) that I rescued as puppies and they've traveled with me all over the southeast. Our favorite activities are exploring in the woods and seeing who is the muddiest at the end of each adventure. I'm very intentional about creating a space for animals to exist as they naturally do, it's a wonder to see how each animal navigates the world and to see their unique personalities shine. I'm currently between jobs, working self-employed gigs here and there, leaving my schedule flexible and open to last-minute care for your pets! I keep my calendar updated daily to ensure accurate availability and give priority to return clients. I am very adamant on making sure your pet receives the same care and routine they are accustomed to. I have experience in a wide arrange of personalities and have personal experience in dogs that need special care and attention with behavior. I do hands-on training with my dogs daily to work on their behavior (one of them is very leash/dog reactive) I have experience is caring for animals with heath needs and stubborn behavior, from administering oral medicine to grooming/nail trimming.
“Raven's care was second to none! Though it was a short stay, she (and her assistant/husband) took care of our boy and kept him happy until our return. We recommend her highly!”
About: I’ve had a love for animals my entire life, and dogs have always held a very special place in my heart. I’ve grown up caring for dogs and have always been the friend and family member who loves to spoil every fur baby with extra attention, cuddles, and affection. I’ve also had experience caring for other people’s pets, including dogs and bunnies, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with a member of your family. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make it a priority to provide them with patience, comfort, companionship, and plenty of love. I take pride in going above and beyond to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while their family is away. I’ve always received positive feedback from the families I’ve helped, and I would love the opportunity to give your fur baby the same love and attention I would want for my own. 🐾❤️ I’m a lab assistant working until medical school late 2027. I work in the mornings from 6 AM to 11 AM and then I’m home the rest of the day. I live in a renovated basement space giving your fur baby their own comfortable and peaceful space during their stay. I also have a cat who is very friendly with dogs and is comfortable around other cats. I’m also happy to accommodate pets with allergies, anxiety, or other special needs. If your pet or anyone in your family has allergies, I can keep the animals completely separated during their stay and take extra precautions to maintain a clean, comfortable environment. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and loved while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾❤️

Viviana took great care of my dog and provided many pictures of Goose exploring her property. I could tell that he was enjoying himself while staying with Viviana. She did an excellent job in communicating with me when I was delayed in my return. I will be using her when I go on my next adventure.
Jacob was amazing and we are so lucky to have found him to watch our boy, Monte! I picked Monte up after the visit and he almost didn't want to leave Jacob, which made me know that Jacob did a great job of loving and taking care of Monte! I'd recommend Jacob highly to anyone looking for pet care!
