House Sitting Cove Creek

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 8. My mother used to raise Yorkshire terriers and I was required to do a lot of help with them. (I have assisted in multiple birthings when I was little LOL) As a child, I was the neighborhood animal sitter. As an adult, I have pet sit with multiple animals, big and small. I truly have a love for animals and will always treat your animal as my own! I know when I go on vacations or out of town how stressful it can be to leave my animals. How stressful it can be to not know who will be able to take care of them and if they will be loved on while I’m away. I will always keep an open line of communication with you, send pictures to keep you in the loop and listen to the needs and wants you may have. Thank you for trusting me to care for your animals. Animals are family and I fully intend to treat them as my own! ALL dogs are required to be up to date on bordetella, hepatitis, rabies, distemper, parvo, and parainfluenza before booking. I will require proof of vaccines. ALL Cats and dogs are required to be on a monthly heartworm preventative and flea and tick medicine before booking. Please provide proof at booking. Lastly, if you are booking overnights in YOUR home.. please know my kiddos would be tagging along. They are extremely well behaved and will not harm anything. The only thing they will do is give your furry babies all kinds of extra lovin! If you are not comfortable with children being in your home(overnight) then I am unfortunately not the right fit for you. I look forward to meeting you and your pawsome friends🐾 I work full time, Monday- Friday typically 8-5. I do work away from home. I am able to do checkins, walks, or any other animal care before and after work. Weekends I have an open schedule! I am hoping one day, this will be my full time job with enough support and then I will be completely open! In my home, I do have 3 cats and 2 children. We all love animals! I do not have a fenced in yard. However, we do have a big yard for your animal to get exercise in or we can go for a walk around my neighborhood! If you bring your animal to my home, you are welcome to bring a crate or anything needed for your furry friends! I will only crate your animal at night if staying over night and during the day from typically 8-4 or 5 while I am at my full time job. At your home, I can do check ins and I will let your animal outside to use the bathroom, run around and play and get the brain stimulated for a few minutes. I can take your dog on a short walk, or long if needed. Play fetch. I can clean up puppy pads. Feed and water. Etc. whatever you may need, I can do. Just let me know the details. I will send you some pictures of your animals daily as a check in.

“Jill did an amazing job with my German shepherd! As a first time for me having someone watch my pet, I am pleased with the care and safety of my dog!”

About: Hi, I’m Cas – I'm here to keep your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free at home! I’ve worked in animal shelters and as a veterinary assistant, so I’ve had hands-on experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m familiar with canine & feline CPR and first aid, and I have extensive experience stabilizing critically ill and crashing animals. Whether your pet is perfectly healthy, managing a chronic condition, or just needs a little extra support, I’m confident and comfortable providing high-quality care. Some of the conditions I’ve worked with include diabetes (including insulin administration - and I'm a T1D myself, so you can trust that I truly understand the complicated ins & outs of diabetic care, hypo/hyperglycemia, and monitoring), kidney disease (including administration of subQ fluids), allergies (both skin-related and dietary), and senior pet care. I’m experienced with both oral and injectable medications, and I always prioritize a gentle, stress-free approach. I am a Fear-Free Certified professional, I prioritize minimizing stress for pets during interactions. I will work to make every experience as calm and comfortable as possible for your animal. When you entrust me with your animal companion's care, you can expect a reliable, gentle, and knowledgeable approach. I offer pet sitting in your home because I truly believe pets are happiest in the space they know best. I do my best to maintain their routines and provide comfort, enrichment, and calm companionship while you’re away. Looking forward to meeting your pet and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care naturally fits into my flexible schedule, which means I can fully adapt to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday playtime, or scheduled medications, I’m able to provide care that matches your animal companion's routine without conflicts or time constraints. The most comforting place for an animal is their own home, surrounded by familiar scents, sounds, and routines. That’s why I offer in-home pet sitting—so your animal companion can stay relaxed and happy in the space they know best. Whether it’s curling up in their favorite sunny spot or sticking to their usual feeding schedule, I make sure everything feels just right while you’re away. My goal is to provide gentle, attentive care that keeps your animal comfortable and your mind at ease.

“Sarah was very responsive to our needs while we were away, and took good care of our fur babies. We will definitely use her again!”

“Peggy was wonderful with our shy little Chihuahua, Lily. I wanted someone in the house with our fur baby rather than just drop-in visits and it worked out wonderfully! Peggy was very respectful of our house and took good care of Lily. It was a win win situation for me and for Lil. When we got home I could tell that she had been taken care of well as she was happy to see us; but not clingy or nervous. I will definitely have Peggy in our home the next time we are planning to leave town and highly recommend her as your sitter.”

“Naomi was great, easy to work with and better than we could have expected leaving our Roxi for 3 days. She was in great hands and we hope to use Naomi again soon.”

About: I’ve lived with animals most of my teenage and adult life. My family pet is a turtle who is about 13 years old now. I currently live with 2 dogs and 5 snakes! I have been a standby stable hand for 4 years now. I love animals and I would love to help you care for your furry friends! I work part time at Chick-fil-A on weekdays from 11-4 but I am off on Tuesdays most weeks. I could and would care for your furry friends before and after work if needed! I have dog sat before and I believe strongly in following the guidelines set by the owner. I think routine is important and I would do everything in my power to keep your furry friends routine! I could feed, train, and walk them however and whenever you want and need.

“Catherine was wonderful! It was such a last minute booking, but she responded so quickly. It was a genuine relief to have her come and look after my dog and cat on such short notice. Both my dog and cat are of geriatric age and have differing needs with both having different medical conditions. She listened to our concerns and took our pet care instructions seriously. She comforted my dog who has severe separation anxiety and somehow managed to persuade my cat with princess-like standards to eat her entire can of cat food. Throughout the night, she responded quickly and sent pictures and updates. I would definitely book with her again the next time I am traveling with my pets in the Knoxville or Gatlinburg region.”

About: I am a dependable and experienced pet sitter with over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. As someone who has grown up with and owned dogs, I understand the importance of providing pets with consistent care, attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have regularly pet sat for neighbors and teammates, helping with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and maintaining pets’ daily routines. I am comfortable working with both large and small breeds and understand that every dog has unique needs and energy levels. I am currently taking supplemental online courses and am working part-time remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for and play with your fur babies throughout the day! I live on 3 acres of property, giving dogs plenty of space to explore, exercise, and enjoy the outdoors under supervision. While the yard is not fenced, I prioritize safety and can keep dogs leashed, closely monitored, or crated when needed. I make sure pets receive daily walks, regular playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. For dogs that enjoy being active, I also occasionally take them on hikes to provide additional exercise and enrichment. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s normal routine and will follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any special care requests provided by the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their home and pets with the utmost respect, ensuring pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving attentive care. My goal is always to make pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away.

“Super great communication, very punctual, nice, all the stuff. We'll definitely reach out again!”

“Angela stepped in to house sit for us with relatively short notice and did a wonderful job with our dog and cat. In addition to taking our dog to school and back, she even gave us an extra drop in when we hit some major delays coming back! Highly recommend!!”

“Mashon is basically a dog whisperer. She was amazing with Heeley. A very calm person. Heeley is a puppy and can be a handful. She handled her with ease. And in a very loving way. Her mom appreciated that. And if mama is happy everyone is :)”

“Stephanie went above and beyond to make sure she communicated well with me and took excellent care of the dogs. The house was very neat and clean, and I have complete trust that Stephanie is taking excellent care of the dogs and keeping the house safe and clean while she’s there.”

“Jasmine stayed with our cat and dog while we were away for just over a week. She gave us some short updates while we were away. When we returned the boys looked fit and happy and the house was well kept. We appreciated her dedication to use her lunch break to take our dog for a walk. I'll be using Jasmine again!”
