“Tracy was amazing, and I will only use her from here on out for my pet care needs. Gave frequent updates with multiple pictures, noted a loose spot in my fence and rigged up a solution, and even took my dog Pico out on additional walks than I paid for. You can tell she truly has a heart for animals. The cherry on top was a sweet hand written note on my arrival back. Could not recommend more, 10/10!!!”
“Cara was great. We were camping with friends and she walked him every day so we didn’t have to run back and spoil our day. She sent tons of photos. She was wonderful. And Dozer loves her too”
About: Hi! We’re T.J. and Allie — lifelong dog lovers based in Seymour who truly treat our dogs like family. We currently share this Rover account, though most dog walking and drop-in visits will be handled by me, T.J. I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely consider them my favorite thing in the world. My wife and I don’t have kids, so our dogs are our kids — spoiled, loved, and cared for like family. We’re proud parents to three of the best boys ever: Ted, a 9-year-old Shih Tzu & Bichon Frise mix with the sweetest personality Banjo, a 12-year-old Sheltie mix who’s calm, loyal, and wise Otis, our newest addition — a 24-week-old Beagle & Jack Russell Terrier mix who is currently stealing our hearts (and socks) Because Otis is still very young, we are not offering boarding at this time while we focus on house training, routines, and helping him grow into a well-mannered pup. Once he’s fully trained and settled, we’ll happily open our home to boarding other dogs in the future. In the meantime, we’re excited to focus on dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting — which honestly lets us give dogs our full attention in the environment they’re most comfortable in: their own home. I absolutely love going on walks and genuinely look forward to taking dogs out, exploring their neighborhoods, and making sure they get both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’m very comfortable working with dogs on basic commands, leash manners, and obedience reinforcement, and I always follow the owner’s routines and preferences closely. You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and videos during every visit. I know how important peace of mind is when someone else is caring for your pride and joy, and I want you to see just how much fun your dog is having while you’re away. If you’re looking for someone who is patient, attentive, communicative, and genuinely excited to spend time with your dog — we’d love to help. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the day for walks and drop-in visits. Pet care is intentionally built into my schedule, and I plan my day around visits to ensure each dog gets focused, unrushed attention. On weekdays I'm typically available for afternoon (after 4pm) and evening visits depending on the day. I do not overbook, so your pet will receive consistent, reliable care — not a rushed check-in. On most weekends I am available and excited to help with your doggos however I can. Because I’m in and out throughout the day, I’m able to accommodate regular potty breaks, structured walks, playtime, and reinforcement of basic commands when requested. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely — including feeding schedules, crate preferences, medication needs, and exercise routines. I aim to keep their environment consistent so they feel safe and comfortable. Safety is always my priority. I double-check leashes, doors, and gates before and after every visit, and I remain attentive during walks to avoid unsafe situations. I use positive reinforcement, calm energy, and structured handling to ensure dogs feel secure and well-managed. Clear communication is important to me, and you’ll receive photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Emma was so responsive and reliable when I needed someone to drop in on my pup. I got lots of pictures and updates while I was away, which made the whole experience so much better. Emma put me at ease and I knew my pup was in great hands. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“Julie was AMAZING with my dog!! I booked her for drop in visits with my 2 year old lab mix and she was incredible with him. She was super communicative throughout the entire process from the meet and greet through the actual visits. And she took lots of adorable pictures of my pup!! Julie was attentive with the details I left about him and made sure to give him lots of love throughout her visits. I’d recommend her to literally anyone who is looking for a sitter!!”
“Cheyenne did a great job taking care of our cat “Leo” while we were gone. She answered our request promptly and came the same day for meet and instructions. Thanks to her our plants stayed alive while we were gone in the almost 100 degree heat because she did some watering as well and we really appreciated that. Leo seemed well taken care of when we returned.”
About: I have always grown up with dogs, since I was a young child I have shared the responsibilities of caring for a family dog. We have always had Bernese Mountain Dogs, so I am particularly adept at caring for active, very large dogs. Growing up I always cared for friend's, family's, and neighbors dogs while they were away on trips, or busy with work. This gave me the ability to care for a diverse profile of dogs with diverse, individualized needs. I am responsible and will closely follow the instructions left to provide your animal with the care it requires. While my experience is primarily with dogs, I also have experience caring for cats for my friends and family as well. In addition to providing your pet with high-quality care, I will also ensure that it feels secure, safe, and loved, even in your temporary absence. I have experience with dogs with high- anxiety, specifically separation anxiety, and I know how to calm your pet in these scenarios. Being apart from your furry loved one can be a time of anxiety for both you and your pet, but I will be sure to provide exceptional care to ease the anxieties of all involved. Overall, I am extremely loving, caring, and responsible, and feel I am an excellent choice to care for your pet. I am currently a Physician Assistant student, so I am busy during most of the day from 8-4, however I have breaks and can stop by to let your dog out or have a romp with them if needed. Other than that, my evenings, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are entirely open, allowing me to dedicate much attention to your pet! I will be sure to accurately and closely follow all instructions that you leave regarding your pets care. I am comfortable with crating dogs if that is your desire. I am also quite adept at "pet proofing' your or my home before leaving, to ensure there is no trouble your animal could get into. My home has a fenced in yard and one very friendly Bernese Mountain Dog, though I could make arrangements for him to reside elsewhere during your pets stay if that is your desire.
About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a huge animal lover, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’ve owned English Bulldogs for most of my life, so I’m very familiar with the breed and all of their funny little personalities.🤣 I also have experience with smaller animals like guinea pigs and absolutely love caring for pets beyond just cats and dogs. I treat every pet like they’re my own and will always do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. 🐾❤️ Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a mom of two, a huge animal lover, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I work from home and run my own business, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and am usually available throughout the day and into the evening for drop-ins, walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention! I don’t currently offer overnight stays, but if you’re looking for someone who can stop by your home frequently throughout the day and evening while you’re away, I’d love to help! My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for- and that you can enjoy your time away without worrying about them. I care for your pets in their home where they feel most safe and comfortable, rather than in an unfamiliar area as I feel it makes it easier on them.
About: From the time I was born, animals have been a part of my life. My pets are my family and yours will be treated the same. I have a wide range of experience when it comes to animals and care for much more than dogs and cats. That includes….saltwater and freshwater aquariums, hedgehogs, rabbits, reptiles, farm animals such as chickens and goats. I will also water your plants, bring in your mail, and set out your trash cans. I work from home and have a flexible schedule and will make your pet a priority 24/7. Your pet will have lots of love and attention. I do not place them in a crate like they do at a boarding facility. They will be able to sit on the couch if they desire! I have a large yard and allow them to get the exercise they need. I live just across from Greenway and will take them on daily walks.
“Riley loves his time with Thomas. He is so kind and is taking great care of him on his visits! I love the midday photos and look forward to having his continued help. And he even brings in the garbage can from the road! A small thing but so thoughtful. Thomas is the best.”
About: Hi! With 7 years of experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and ages, I provide a safe and fun environment for your furry friends during your get away. Please reach out with your questions As a current dental student, I wake up early and can get your furry friends outside for a walk. I come home for lunch everyday at 12 and let them get some steps in. I’m back home for the night around 5pm and spend the rest of the night with them I have an accessible, pet-friendly apartment with no other animals. I can walk them around for all the sniffs and secure them back in my unit.
“Raven has been absolutely fabulous! She looked after our kitty Sasha while we were gone and kept us updated. She’s a great communicator and lovely woman! Highly recommend and would 100% hire again.”
About: Hello! All my life I’ve grown up with three dogs at a time. I have experience house sitting for high maintenance, low maintenance, and even aggressive dogs. I often house sit for my bosses and would love to help you out too. I have 4 years experience house sitting but have been around pets and cared for them for 17 years. Thank you so much and hope to work with your dogs soon! I work full time as an accountant. Usually 9a-6p. But this is flexible, I can work around your dogs needs. Just ask and we can chat! In my apartment, I help my roommate with his dog. I take her for regular walks and generally feed her and administer any medicines she needs.
“Adeline checked in on our 2 dogs and cat while I had a last minute overnight night trip and needed someone to let the dogs out for a potty break and feed and water for the night. Adeline was so kind in agreeing to care for them last minute and sent updates at each check in. She even brought in packages that were delivered without me having to ask so it wasn’t sitting in the front porch all day.”
“Lucy is awesome! She took such good care of my shy kitty while I was away, she gave me updates every visit and kept my mind at ease knowing my cat was well taken care of. We will definitely book her again!”
About: I’ve had many dogs all my life. Family, friends, and neighbors have depended on me for house/pet sitting, pet feeding, bathing, and pet medication needs more seriously over the last 5 years. I plan to open a pet care business eventually, and I would love the opportunity to serve you while I work towards these ambitions. I love dogs, any size, and energy level. I work bi-weekly and my calendar reflects my exact availability! When I’m not working I stay home as much as I want/ need, which means your pet will have my full attention!! Your pet will be my best friend. I’m laying roots in Knoxville and simply can’t afford my own pet yet, so I am grateful to befriend yours!
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds & fish my whole life. I worked in a vet’s office for 2 years. I am skilled in taking proper care of animals! I am a recent masters graduate of Milligan University, and I am free most days during the day. I also have availability on the weekends.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
