“Cassandra is wonderful. Such a relief having someone like her take care of our 4 pets! She sent lots of photos and you could see how much our animals loved having her. We didn't have to worry about a thing. When we came home, everything was just as we left it, even though one of our pups decided to destroy one of her toys! Cassandra cleaned that all up. Definently reccommend her and we will definitely request her again! Thank you!”


“Becky is amazing and takes care of my puppy. She works with me chaotic schedule. She is quick to respond and always try’s to make things work out. I would 10 out of 10 recommend her to take care of your little loved ones.”


“Thank you Kelly for taking such good care of our fur babies! You are reliable, responsible, and meticulous in understanding and caring for our pets while we were away! After moving to a new area, we were apprehensive regarding finding someone that would be reliable, loving, and provided the expert care that you have, and we greatly appreciate you!”



“I was very lucky to have Sarah take care of my dogs the first time I used Rover. She immediately had a great rapport with my pups, both well over 50 lbs and VERY enthusiastic. She sent several updates, photos included, and even walked Lucy and Mabel together. They are so rambunctious that we don't even do that! Also, Sarah was patient with my lack of expertise with the Rover app and even helped me with it. I will feel so much more relaxed now when I leave my pups knowing they are in Sarah's care.”


“Betty provided drop in service for my pup Roxie for for 30 mins a day for 2 weeks. This was my first time utilizing Rover. Betty has such a kind, sweet spirit and you can easily tell within minutes of meeting that she loves animals! She was also flexible with activities requests that were modified due to changing weather. Roxie was thrilled to be able to play fetch in the backyard or go for walks (if/when it rained) mid day every day! Betty was very responsive and interactive by providing pics/videos during her daily visit. I will definitely contact her again when future needs arise!”


About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for pets of all shapes and sizes—from tiny Chihuahuas to massive English Mastiffs. I’ve also had cats and other small animals, though my cat experience is more limited. Whether it’s a playful pup, a senior dog with a routine, or a shy fur baby needing a gentle touch—I treat every pet like family. I know each animal has their own personality, and I take time to understand what makes yours feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I have experience with senior dogs, high-energy breeds, and pets with big personalities—including my own temperamental dog. Because of this, I only offer in-home sitting (in your home), not boarding. I also offer drop-in visits on weekends only, as I work full time Monday through Friday (9am–6pm) in Cedar Bluff and live in Maryville. I’m dependable, flexible with short notice, and great with communication. I also know how important it is for you to feel confident when you're away, so you can expect regular updates and photos while your pet is in my care. Let’s chat and schedule a meet-and-greet—I’d love to connect with you and your four-legged family! I work full time Monday through Friday from 9am to 6pm in Cedar Bluff, so I’m available for overnight in-home sitting during the week and drop-in visits on weekends only. Because I live in Maryville, I try to stay within a reasonable driving distance for services. I’m happy to discuss what works best for your pet’s routine and find a schedule that fits us both! When caring for pets in your home, my priority is making them feel safe, secure, and loved in their familiar environment. I follow your routine as closely as possible—from feeding schedules and potty breaks to walks and playtime—because consistency helps pets feel at ease while you're away. I’m respectful of your home and treat it with the same care I would my own. I make sure doors stay locked, your space stays clean, and your pet is never left unattended longer than discussed. I also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your furry friend is doing. Because my own dog is temperamental, I don’t offer boarding. This allows me to focus completely on your pet in their own space, where they’re most comfortable.

“Katie was wonderful! This was our first time leaving our cat with a sitter and she made us feel comfortable and reassured he was in good hands! She played with our cat Frankie, gave him treats and cleaned up when he repeatedly knocked over his water bowl.”


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.

“Very caring and attentive. She came over the day before to meet my dog and go over our routine. I’d forgotten to ask her to refill my dog’s food, but she reached out to me to ask how much food to give her.”


“Cailyn treated our kitties as her own and even went the extra mile and took out our recycling without being prompted, when she recognized others in the neighborhood had theirs out. She also saved our Home Chef food that arrived on the wrong day and could have spoiled had she not agreed to unpack and put it all away for us. Cailyn is a gem!”


About: I’m a dependable, detail-oriented sitter serving Maryville & nearby areas. I’ve cared for everything from shy cats to high-energy pups, and I’m comfortable following exact routines—mealtimes, meds, potty breaks, enrichment, and calm companionship. During drop-ins, I handle the essentials (fresh water, feeding, litter refresh or quick potty walk) and add extras that matter: a few minutes of purposeful play, a tidy area, and a clear update with time-stamped photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I work 9–2, Monday–Friday, so I build pet care around those hours: early mornings, late afternoons, and evenings—plus fully open weekends. Typical drop-in windows are 6:30–8:30 AM, 2:30–5:30 PM, and 7:00–10:00 PM on weekdays; weekends are flexible from 8:00 AM–8:00 PM. I’m reliable with time-sensitive needs (puppy potty breaks, exact-feed cats, meds/insulin), send clear updates with photos every visit, and offer 20, 30, or 60-minute drop-ins. Need an earlier or later visit for travel days or special routines? I can usually accommodate with a heads-up. I offer drop-in visits and house sitting in your home so your pet sticks to their normal routine. My style is calm, safety-first, and positive-reinforcement based. I follow your instructions to the letter and keep you in the loop with detailed updates and photos every visit.

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all ages! Puppies, older dogs, dogs that need assistance, energetic dogs, and all kinds of cats! I love them all! I currently work part time fully remote! This means I can give your pets all the attention they need! I am currently in school and have classes during the day on Tuesdays/Thursdays. My number one goal is to have your pets feel as safe with me as they are with you. Keeping their same routine is essential in keeping them safe. I always follow a routine any any other steps to guarantee a safe pet!

“Sadie was absolutely amazing with our animals! She was early. And she provided great feedback during her. Stay to let us know how everyone was doing including pictures. The animals felt very comfortable around her. I will definitely be contacting Sadie again!”


About: I am currently in my running era which means there is no pup that I won’t stop for and give pets too. I have owned Shepards and Dobermans whom have taught me alpha patience along with structure. I enjoy spending time inside and outdoors. I encompass a wide scope of care including various ages, genders, breeds, impairments or special needs. I am CPR & AED certified. I love to see an animals joy. Toof smiles are my favorite but I also love tail wags, muzzle snuggles, licks & kisses. Currently working an in office desk job, seeking the opportunity to sneak away and provide some loving attention. I am adaptive in my schedule and care regiment. I currently do not have the ability to care for animals at my residence. I encompass positive talk and praise, quick correction (if desired), ignore undesirable and avoid any dangerous situation. I am sensitive to individual needs and the owners desired level of obedience. Most importantly I am reliable.

“Sarah did a great job with my cats! Not only did she feed and take care of the litter, but she also was helpful with collecting my packages and mail for me while I was away. She also takes great photos of your pet while she is watching them!”

My family and I went out of town for a wedding and decided to book with Rebecca. She did home drop in’s twice a day to check in on our Mochi girl (pug) and she was amazing! She walked her and gave her the attention needed. She was on time and kept good communication with us the entire time. We even got cute pictures of our girl. She made me feel confident that Mochi was well taken care of. We will be definitely booking with Rebecca again.
