“Wonderful sitter! Denise came and checked on our cat while we were out of town and went above and beyond with providing updates and even brought our garbage cans in for us. We felt great knowing we were leaving our kitty in such good hands and she was well cared for while we were away.”


“I absolutely love having Veronica as my cat sitter! Her notes are always detailed and her communication is amazing! She was willing to switch some things around to give my kitty some extra love! I’m pretty sure my cat started to love her more than he loves me! She will always be my go to cat sitter!”


“Our sweet girl Hazel recently lost her brother very suddenly. She has been struggling with anxiety and associated behaviors pretty bad. We hired Emery for daily drop-in’s to give our girl a little extra TLC. Emery has been so patient with Hazel, gently coaxing her outside even when she doesn’t want to go, and even helping us to figure out what her new preferences are. We are grateful for Emery’s attention to detail, her compassion towards Hazel, and responsiveness to us considering Hazel’s changing needs.”


“Emma is a great pet sitter. She was punctual and responsible taking care of our cat. We were slightly surprised how soon and how much our cat loved her. Definitely recommend her.”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years, from energetic puppies to giant breeds! I currently have a 4 month old Great Dane named Ozzy, so I’m no stranger to fast-growing pups with big personalities. Some breeds that I’ve worked with include Pit Bulls, Border Collies, a Great Pyrenees, Pomeranians, Boston Terriers, German Shepherds, a Belgian Malinois, Huskies, and more! Pet care is a part of my daily life—I build my routine around the animals I care for. As a pet parent myself, I’m used to early morning feedings, regular walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I work from home (or have a flexible schedule), which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention and maintain their usual routines. Whether I’m hosting a dog in my home or visiting pets in theirs, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I’m also used to adjusting my schedule to fit specific feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and medication if needed. Because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s a meaningful and fulfilling part of my day. Safety is my top priority when caring for your pets. Whether it’s making sure gates and doors are securely closed, using proper leash techniques, or keeping harmful items out of reach, I take every precaution to create a secure environment. I’m trained and experienced in recognizing signs of stress or discomfort so I can intervene early and keep your pet calm and safe. Building trust with both pets and their owners is essential. I approach every new animal with patience and respect, allowing them to get comfortable at their own pace. Communication with owners is open and transparent—I provide regular updates, photos, and feedback to ensure you always feel confident and informed about your pet’s care. I strive to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel at home. Whether in your space or mine, I adapt to their routines and preferences, providing consistency that helps reduce anxiety and supports their well-being.

“Great kitty mom, cats happy, well fed, litter boxes clean -- and she proactively addresses that occasional hairball issue. Winchester and Indigo wouldn't trade her for all the treats in the cat treat aisle!”


“Mandy was an amazing sitter for my cat Scooter. Not only did she do check-ins/feedings twice daily, but she also spent the night a few times with him so he wouldn’t be alone too long. I could tell from the photos that he was comfortable with her and not too anxious about me being gone. He’s usually an anxious boy, so that was a huge win for him! Mandy was communicative, professional, friendly, and dependable. She even washed the bedding she used for me! I’m so thankful Mandy could be his sitter while I was out of town.”


“Ashley was great! Super communicative and always on time for the drop-ins. She consistently sent photos and updates in the report cards, and was always quick to respond to any messages. She even stayed overtime some days just to give my cat a little more company, and helped us out when our apartment needed to do a last minute inspection. Would definitely book her again!”


“I think this is my fourth time hiring Karen in about six months. She is so conscientious and a great communicator, for example flagging things like notes from the apartment complex about maintenance. I always feel good leaving my kitty in her hands.”


“Tori was excellent and went above and beyond to take care of my cats. Her detailed updates and photos gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook her.”


“Jessica and her daughter did a wonderful job taking care of our menagerie of animals while we were away. She met with me before and thoroughly took the time to learn what all I would like taken care of. She had GREAT communication throughout so that I could actually relax and not worry about everything at home. I would definitely recommend her and will be requesting her again in the future.”


“Tyler checked in on my cat Mia on short notice and was awesome. Great communication with photos when checking in and made sure my super skittish, weary of strangers kitty was well taken care of while I was gone. Highly recommend!”


About: I have always had pets and made my pocket money by caring for various types of animals for others. I can help with most needs. My littles are both in school now so I will have time during the school day to spoil and play with your fur babies while you are away. Relax knowing I will be there to care for and spoil your fur babies while you are away whether for or travel. I will follow instructions to a tee and provide you updates.

About: I love all pets! I have two cats and a dog of my own that I love and cherish very much. I have also had and taken care of pets ever since I was five years old! I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, gerbils, and fish; however, I am more than interested in learning how to take care of your pet if I do not have experience in taking care of that type yet. When I pet sit or walk your pet, I will make sure that I take care of them the same way that I take care of my own pets, with responsibility, safety, and love. I also have six years of house sitting experience. I am very good with plants and making sure that your house is taken care of while you are away. I cannot wait to be your sitter!

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for pets of all breeds, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. Beyond dogs, I’ve cared for cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles, fish, frogs, chickens, and even raised butterflies from eggs. This variety has given me a deep appreciation for the unique needs of each animal, and I tailor every visit to their comfort, routine, and personality. My goal is to provide the kind of care that lets you travel or work with total peace of mind. I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends for drop-ins, walks, and extended care, with overnight house-sitting available year-round, including busy holidays. Because I know your pups deserve love while you're away at work, I may be available for morning/lunchtime visits within Knoxville. My flexible weekend availability allows me to spend focused, unrushed time with your pets while maintaining their normal routines. I make safety, comfort, and cleanliness my top priorities. In your home, I follow instructions exactly, keep things tidy, and send regular updates—so you always know your pets are safe, happy, and cared for.

About: Hi! I offer an in-home boarding experience set on a beautiful 9-acre horse farm, designed to provide a fun, safe, and enriching stay for your furry family members. With a tropical theme and a cozy, home-like atmosphere, we ensure that every dog feels comfortable and loved during their visit. Our home features four spacious 6’x4’ kennels equipped with luxury cots, along with a large fenced-in dog area for plenty of off-leash fun. During the day, dogs enjoy lounging in our home, socializing, and engaging in enrichment activities such as Kongs, lick mats, splash pads, and bubble play. At night, they rest in their spacious kennels unless special accommodations are needed for non-crate-trained dogs. We often have multiple guests at a time, so your dog will have the chance to make new friends during their stay. With a background as an animal health technician and hands-on experience managing our farm, I have extensive knowledge in animal care and well-being. I work a remote job, allowing me to be home most of the day. However, I do leave for a few hours each day, and occasionally, we may be gone for a full day for family outings. During these times, dogs stay comfortable and secure in their kennels with access to enrichment activities. With personalized care, ample playtime, and a stress-free environment, our home is the perfect retreat for your pup while you’re away! **we do leave the house for family events , outings and errands.
