House Sitting Arminda

“Emma was fantastic! We have five dogs and two cats and I was nervous about leaving the Country for a week. We definitely have a house full and Emma handled everything professionally and treated our dogs like her own. She was very communicative and set pictures often. The house was tidy when we got back and all of our pets where well taken care of. We would 💯 hire Emma again.”

About: I’m experienced in walking and playing with dogs in the evening. Don’t stress about leaving a dog in my care. They will be in excellent care and thoroughly entertained. I’m available after 5:30pm Monday thru Thursday. I have more flexibility on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I am a part-timer on Rover. I can walk, fed, and entertain your pet to make sure they are satisfied. My home is unfortunately not suitable for boarding pets on the regular. I am able to stay with the pet overnight at their home upon request.

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and have always had dogs as part of my family. Over the years, I’ve also pet and house sat for numerous families, caring for dogs with different personalities, routines, and needs. My husband and I currently have three dogs of our own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. Since my husband works from home, our dogs are well cared for while I’m able to dedicate my time and attention to your furry family members. I’m available for drop-in visits and overnight stays, and I strive to provide the same love, consistency, and care that your pets receive when you’re home. Having had a few disappointing experiences with pet sitters myself, I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care. That’s why I’m committed to providing dependable communication, treating your home with respect, and making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll tailor my care to what makes them happiest. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and ensure your pets are excited to see me every time I visit. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, potty breaks, feedings, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for so they can stick to their normal routine and receive the care they deserve. Whether it’s a drop-in visit or overnight companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and never rushed. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, going for walks, or giving them plenty of playtime and affection. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own, keeping it clean, secure, and leaving it just as I found it. I’ll make sure doors and gates are locked and pets are safely leashed or contained when needed. I also know how reassuring it is to hear that your pets are doing well while you’re away, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe, happy, and receiving the same love and attention they’re used to at home.

“Leanne was the best sitter we could have asked for. Our travels plans got messed up and the pups had some medical issues pop up and she kept us so informed and the dogs taken care of. She absolutely went above and beyond for them, and made sure they got plenty of exercise as well!”

About: I have several years of professional experience working hands on with dogs in boarding, daycare, enrichment, and training environments. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, temperaments, and energy levels, from young puppies learning appropriate manners to senior dogs who need a slower, more individualized approach. My experience includes dog training, enrichment activities, group play supervision, leash handling, feeding and medication routines, recognizing canine body language, and working with dogs who may be nervous, overstimulated, reactive, or simply need a little extra patience. I’m comfortable adapting care to the individual dog rather than expecting every dog to enjoy or respond to the same things. Most importantly, I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I currently have open availability and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop ins, playtime, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and keep their schedule as consistent as possible while you’re away. Safety and your pet’s comfort are always my priority. My professional experience has taught me to pay close attention to canine body language, stress signals, behavior changes, and each dog’s individual boundaries. I follow your pet’s established routine and care instructions closely and never force interactions they’re uncomfortable with. Whether your dog is outgoing, nervous, high energy, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll adjust my care to what makes them feel safest and most comfortable.

“Super sweet, reliable, and sent us lots of updates while we were away, which we really appreciated.”

“Kim was amazing with our 2 fur babies ! She made it so easy and eased our minds about leaving our puppets at home under her care. Falkor and Seraphina immediately took to Kim and were sad when it was time for her to go home. Highly recommend Kim ❣️❣️❣️🐾🐾🐾🐾”

About: Hi, I’m new to Rover and I’d love to be your dog or cats new best friend! I’ve grown up with Norwegian Elkhounds & Akita’s, so I am very familiar with large snow breeds. I have always pet sat for my neighbors, family friends, and coworkers. I’m comfortable caring for animals of many sizes and personalities - for real. I’ve watched dogs, cats, reptiles, horses, bunnies, and even birds. I am a pre-vet junior at UTK, and currently work at a large animal hospital - mainly with equines! I’m a part time college student with a part time job. Dog/cat sitting is a fun side job for me! I am able to do drop ins, walks, and house sitting. I am not able to have animals stay at my apartment, but I am very happy to stay with them at their house. I also feel it’s more comfortable and convenient for them!

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs and cats. My experience includes daily husbandry, feeding, medication administration, exercise, cleaning, and monitoring animal health and behavior. I’m comfortable handling animals with different personalities and care needs and am committed to providing safe, attentive, and individualized care. I am a full time student but I am fully able to provide care overnight. I will be able to stay with a pet over multiple days and will provide long walks (if needed) when I finish school in the afternoon. I will care for each pet according to their individual routine, personality, and needs. I’ll follow all owner instructions closely, provide plenty of attention, exercise, feeding, and enrichment, and make sure they are safe and comfortable throughout my care. I’ll also keep owners updated with regular messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.

“Allison did a great job sitting with our dog while we were on vacation. She asked questions and sent pictures to let us know our pup was ok. We will definitely use Allison again.”

“Anna was amazing! She gave our fur babies lots of attention and sent pictures while we were gone! We didn’t have to worry about a thing! We would consider our dog to be slightly needy and Anna kept him so happy that he was looking for her when we got home! We would definitely recommend using Anna to take care of your pets!”

About: 2+ years of experience in kennel and veterinary settings- working with both cats and dogs with a variety of temperaments and ensuring their best experience while boarding! Dog and cat sitting experience for 10+ friends and family members countless times- comfortable with talks and indoor enrichment activities regardless of species. I currently work part-time during weekends, meaning I'm usually free Monday-Friday to play with and walked pups and cats whenever they need it! With my years of experience working with vet clinics and adjacent boarding facilities, I am comfortable working with animals with a variety of sizes and temperaments. I am more than comfortable to play inside, take dogs (or cats, if you want) on long walks, play outside, and monitor behavior to ensure beloved pets remain safe and healthy in the heat of summer.

“A diligent sitter who did an excellent job caring for our dog and our home. We appreciated her taking the time to complete a meet and greet before her stay, where she asked great questions to learn how best to care for our dog. During the stay she provided regular updates and photos.”

“Naomi took care of two emotional dogs. She came early to meet them and communicated when arriving and leaving our house. She also ran the dishwasher and stripped her bedding before leaving! Thanks, Naomi of taking care of them!”

Mandy S.

“Elaina was great with my cats! She sent updates and pictures and the both came out to visit, which one of them is a tad shy and takes a bit to warm up to people. Will definitely be trying to use her again in the future!”

About: Hi, I’m Danner. I love animals and have experience pet sitting for family friends, caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and anxious dogs, and I understand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and trustworthy looking after your furry family members. I personally know how valuable it is to have a sitter you can count on. I use Rover myself and appreciate the peace of mind that comes from knowing someone loyal and caring is taking care of my own dog. I strive to provide that same comfort and trust to every client I work with. I have several hundred hours volunteering in the community (Knoxville), which helped me develop strong responsibility, attention to detail, and the ability to stay calm in stressful situations. I bring that same dedication and care into every pet-sitting opportunity. My availability is open, and I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and updates so you can feel confident your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and needs. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and a few hours of companionship, and I’m also open to overnight stays in a clean and comfortable home. I typically work during the day for about 7 hours, usually from 6 AM–1 PM or 8 AM–3 PM, but I’m happy to stop by before and after work to make sure your pets get the care, attention, and love they need. I’m respectful of your home, your instructions, and your pet’s boundaries. My experience has taught me the importance of being responsible, observant, and prepared, especially in situations where someone is depending on me. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, cared for, and getting plenty of love while you’re away. P.s - MY dog is a RUNNER so don’t worry I know how to make sure they stay inside.

“Cassondra housesat and watched our 1 yr old dog and 2 cats while were were gone for over a week- I was nervous as we had not been away from our dig since adopting her, and she has some anxiety. Cassondra took excellent care of all our animals, everyone was healthy and happy when we returned! She sent us regular updates and pictures, handled any minor things that happened, and left our house spotless. We will definitely be hiring her again!”
