“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 ❣️❣️❣️🐾🐾🐾🐾”
“Cheyenne was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Sven. This was my first time ever using a sitter outside of my family, so I was a bit hesitant—but she made the entire process easy and stress-free. Sven is a Belgian Malinois protection/working dog with high drive and strong awareness, and Cheyenne handled him with confidence, patience, and real attentiveness. That’s not something I trust easily, and she exceeded expectations. She provided regular updates with messages and photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. It was clear he was getting proper exercise, structure, and care the entire time. When I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for, always the best sign. Cheyenne provided excellent in house care, is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I will absolutely be booking with her again and highly recommend her—especially if you have a high-drive or working dog/puppy”
“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.”
“Allison was extremely communicative and helpful with our pups! She even looked after an eye problem and gave meds 3 times per day for us while we were gone. Would highly recommend!”
“Our fur babies loved hanging out with Nicole! She was available on short notice and sent us photos of our babies while we were out. We will absolutely request Nicole next time we are visiting the area!”
“Lindsey made me feel super at ease as a first time Rover user. I needed someone to house sit as well as pet sit and she made sure everything and everyone was well taken care of! When we arrived home the house was clean and the pets were happy! Highly recommend.”
“Maya and Griffin LOVE Sofia as do I! She takes excellent care of them as well as our home. Very respectful of our place, totally trustworthy, and very dependable. I'm so thankful to have her as our dog sitter.”

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!
“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!”
“Erin was great again; this was a rebook, and I’ll be booking her again. She was reliable, communicative, and took excellent care of my cats. I especially appreciated coming back to a clean house just as I left it, and the peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Boyds Creek
Elianna was wonderful and such a blessing. Not only did she accommodate us and our needs last minute, but truly made our vacation possible. I would highly recommend anyone staying in the Pigeon Forge area to her if you need in cabin sitting for your pups while you are out sightseeing etc. We were able to visit Gatlinburg and attend our dinner show with ease knowing that the dogs were being watched and were safe. More Rover sitters would greatly benefit from advertising this service to out of town visitors and cabin companies- it not only protects cabin companies and the property from damage, but also keeps from having to crate your dogs for an extended period or pack a crate. This service allowed our dogs freedom, socialization, and unlimited potty breaks by just having someone stay with them while we were out. It was ideal for our needs and we came back to very happy dogs. We will definitely be using her services again when we return. If I could rate more than 5 stars I would. Thanks again Elianna! You’re awesome.

FAQs for House Sitting - Boyds Creek
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Boyds Creek on Rover is $57.72 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 668 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Boyds Creek. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Boyds Creek walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Boyds Creek maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Boyds Creek choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
