“Wonderful sitter for our cats and dogs! Have used her a couple of times and she goes above and beyond to make sure your fur babies are taken care of and keeps you updated every visit. Will use her every time we go on vacation ❤️”



“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 is a delight! Ive utilized her multiple times over the past year (most recently this week) and never have to worry about Roxie! Betty is very responsive, punctual and always provides great care 🐶”


“Hannah was great, we did a couple meet and greets but this was her first full week sitting for our great danes. They can be overwhelming for sitters but she was really calm and loving with them. Sent lots of pics, daily updates, checked mail, kept the plants alive and fed my daughters reptile! Definitely recommend and will rebook in the future.”


“Maddie is phenomenal!! I have a super senior cat who's a bit fickle with affection and has a schedule for meds and good. Maddie stuck strictly to her schedule and went above and beyond to take care of Lilly as if she were her own. She was very communicative and did extra beyond the list of care needs for Lilly. She played and cuddled with her, kept her food and medicine on schedule, and kept my home clean while I was away. Such a huge relief and I will definitely be contacting Maddie for Lilly when I travel again!”


About: I have been, always will be a dog lover! I've owned several breeds over the years in all sizes and temperaments...from an oversized cuddly 90-lb American Bulldog to a boss-lady 15-lb dachshund. Right now, we have our 2nd lady dachshund who has yet to meet a stranger in dog or human form, one "big baby" Doberman, and one indoor/outdoor cat who will cuddle up right next to the dogs! I have 2 kids who have been around our dogs and dog parks their entire lives and we have "trained" them how to behave around dogs. Our last 3 pups we have each gotten at 8-10 weeks old so I am knowledgeable about the time, effort, and training puppies need from the beginning. I have also cared for my former boss' elderly dog several times at our home for weeks at a time who has round-the-clock medication and potty needs...she no longer boards him at a kennel! We have kept family and friends' pups at our home when they're on trips or having work done on homes, and have made visits to their home during extended working days. *I work for a local school system during the week so my weekday availability is around school hours. Just message me for particular scheduling requests! **I am not currently offering boarding or doggy daycare since we have recently moved and do not have our full fencing in place yet. Hopefully I will be able to activate those services again soon! While not a requirement, if at all possible I do prefer every new booking to have a brief meet & greet so your pup(s) or kitty can get acquainted with me! I've found it also helps put the owners at ease to get to meet me beforehand and get to communicate all the ins and outs of the environment and routine. Pet care is already built into my life with two pups and a cat of our own at home! Since I work for a local school system, my weekday availability is around school hours. Just reach out for specific scheduling requests! Any pup guests that visit will have full run of our home, and time and space to assimilate on their own terms. My pup also recognizes and respects any boundaries another dog sets too. Guest pups tend to see me as "mother hen" and I frequently have a gaggle of animals following me all around my house! I make a conscious effort with supervision, attention, and reassurance to ensure any guest pup knows he/she can trust me and feels safe in our home. As for in a pet's own home, the more routine and personality quirks I'm aware of the better! I am a calm and confident pet person in both a solo situation or if we encounter another pet on our walk, and I can respect the pet's own personality and/or need for more or less space and energy.

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.

About: Along with dog sitting and walking, I have been a dog walker at the Blount County Animal Shelter for about 2.5 years now. This (other than my previous bookings) is all volunteer work, and I love taking care of the dogs there that have no home and I would love to take care of yours too! I also own a dog of my own, a French Bulldog named mochi, who is very playful and would love to play with your pups! I’m relatively free at any point an time, minus 1 hour in the morning, and one in the evening to walk someone’s dog, so your fur baby will be getting plenty of attention from me! :) I have a pet French Bulldog named Mochi who would love to play with your pets! She is high energy but can entertain herself if your dogs are not. We have a fenced in area so your furry friends can run around and play! Otherwise, I can walk your furry friends at a park or around my yard. :)

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a little kid. I have always had dogs as pets, but in addition coworkers, friends, and family members have trusted me to house sit and walk their dogs. Animals are my passion, and I have always adored getting to take care of them and have some fun along the way! I am a full-time college student, but I have a lot of free time in my afternoons, and when summer break starts, I will be available full time. For now, I am keeping my availability to afternoons on all days of the week for dog-walking and house-sitting. For my pets at home, I have a fenced-in yard for the pups to run around in. I also have crates for when I am away, so I am used to multiple ways of keeping dogs safe and secure in a home. I am adaptable to whatever way my clients may take care of their pets, including, but not limited to feeding times, potty schedules, and use of a crate if needed.

About: I stand out for my hands-on experience with senior and sick dogs, offering gentle, attentive care. I’m also known for being dependable, punctual, and trustworthy. I am currently in esthetician school part time, I have all the time to play with & make sure your pup is happy and healthy!!! I follow all instructions and notes from clients intently to ensure a positive, and safe experience in the clients home and for their fur baby!!!


“Reah was amazing and helped out on such short notice! She left such a sweet report card of our puppies :) loved seeing the photos of them playing outside. We will definitely try to have her help out again!”


“I highly recommend Abby after just one week. She communicated well, she went above and beyond willingly, she is dependable and timely, but mostly Abby truly has a heart for dogs and was loving with my two large dogs. We trust and are confident to have Abby sit for future needs.”

For pets that may be anxious, I use positive reinforcement and soothing techniques to help them feel at ease.

“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!”
