About: I have a lifelong passion for animals and hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve volunteered in animal shelters, where I helped care for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. Having grown up with both dogs and cats my entire life, I understand their needs, personalities, and the importance of providing patient, loving, and reliable care. I am a morning person, who is in PA school 8am-5pm most days. I can do early morning, lunchtime, and dinner drop-ins during the week. I am free all day on the weekends. I provide attentive, personalized care in my home or my client’s home, always following each pet’s routine and specific needs. This includes feeding, fresh water, administering medications if needed, walks and playtime for dogs, enrichment and companionship for cats, and regular updates for owners. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining the routine they know and trust.
“Emma was wonderful! We were very nervous to leave our cat alone for the first time after losing our other cat, but Emma was so great. He was cuddling with her by the second day of her stay! She was great to give us updates and left the house spotless! Highly, highly recommend!”
“Mara was great with our boys! They are very shy and timid and she was so patient to let them warm up on their time/terms. Taz got lots of walks and he and both cats and were happily relaxing when we got home. 😊”
“I am a helicopter-pup mom and honestly a little much when it comes to my two babies! My normal pet sitter is no longer able to pet sit and I was so nervous going through an app and choosing a complete stranger to take care of my babies while I was out of town. From the moment I met her, I felt safe. Alexa has a sweet and calming demeanor. She sent me photos and updated me on how they were doing. She even brought her dog over to visit (with my permission)! I will definitely utilize her services again and recommend her!”
“Jodi was a phenomenal, attentive sitter for our 55 lb lab pit mix, Apollo, and left our home spotless. Her love and passion for animals shines through. We would highly recommend her and hope she will be available next time we are in need of a sitter!”
“Sam is absolutely AMAZING! She stayed overnight for about 10 days and took incredible care of my two dogs. One of them is a senior who requires daily oral medication, and Sam did a fantastic job making sure he got his meds every single day while closely monitoring him. My other dog is a very active pit bull who needs extra attention when going outside because she can be sneaky but Sam handled this perfectly and always made sure she was safely on a leash. After having an unpleasant experience with a previous sitter, I was hesitant to use Rover again, but Sam completely changed my mind. She went above and beyond in every way. I came home to a spotless house, and throughout my trip she sent plenty of pictures and messages that truly showed how much she cares and her genuine love for my dogs. I’m so grateful I found Sam and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Gracen did an excellent job pet sitting at our home. Our senior pup and 3 senior kitties adore her. Gracen communicates often and provides great feedback complete with photos. Thank you Gracen. Knowing our pet family is so well cared for allows us to take time away without worry. Appreciate you!”
About: From 2018 to 2026 I owned and ran Biscuit's Dog Services in Longmeadow, MA, caring for 40 recurring clients' dogs. In 8 years I kept a 5-star satisfaction rating and had zero safety incidents, thanks to strict safety habits on every walk and visit. Most of my business came from referrals, and many clients stayed with me for years. I have worked with every type of dog from energetic puppies to quiet seniors that need extra care. Before that, I served 4 years in the U.S. Navy, where I led teams, handled high-pressure situations calmly, and learned that showing up on time and following through matter most. I've recently moved to Knoxville and am bringing the same dependable, safety-first care to the Cedar Bluff area. Your dog's routine, feeding, and comfort come first, and you'll get an update after every visit. Pet care is my full-time focus right now, so I have wide-open availability, including early mornings, midday walks, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I'm very flexible and happy to work around your schedule, whether you need a daily walk, a last-minute drop-in, or overnight house sitting while you're away. Just reach out, and I'll do my best to make it work. I provide all care in your home, so your pet stays comfortable in their own familiar space. Before the first booking, I'll meet you and your pet to learn their routine, feeding and medication schedule, quirks, and your vet's contact info. On walks, I double-check collars, harnesses, and leashes before heading out, and I always keep dogs leashed and under control. Over 8 years running my own pet care business, I kept a 5-star rating and zero safety incidents. I treat your home with the same respect: doors locked, keys secure, everything left the way I found it. You'll get photo updates after every visit through Rover.
“Stephanie was great! She stayed at our home for 10 days to take care of our cat, Loki, and did such a great job. Her communication was fantastic — I loved getting photo updates and hearing how things were going while we were away. She’s so sweet, and it was clear that Loki felt comfortable and enjoyed her company. We came home to a happy cat and a tidy home, and I couldn’t ask for better care. Highly recommend her and would definitely book again!”
“Elle is a wonderful dog sitter. I felt that my fur babies were in good hands while we were out of town. I will definitely request her services in the future and highly recommend her to others.”
“Taryn was an absolute jewel. She treated my 3 girls as if they were her own & I appreciate so much all the extra love that she gave them. My house was clean on return from vaca & my fur babies were happy, so that's more then I can ask for. Thanks Taryn!”
“Annabelle took amazing care of Brandy and Phoebe, as always!-I’ve had experiences with sitters in the past that left me with some concerns, but she has no trouble making me feel like my pups are safe and well cared for. Thanks again Annabelle!!!”
“Absolutely Incredible Experience! I cannot recommend Sara enough! I have a young and very needy German Shepherd who can be a handful, and she went above and beyond to care for him while I was away on vacation. From the moment we first connected, she made me feel completely at ease. She stayed in constant communication—sending me regular updates, texts, and the sweetest photos that truly showed how happy and comfortable my dog was. It made such a difference being able to enjoy my trip knowing he was in such capable, caring hands. She clearly understands dogs and their unique personalities, and treated my pup as if he were her own. When I came back, he was relaxed, well-exercised, and clearly had been well-loved while I was gone. If you're looking for someone responsible, attentive, and genuinely caring, Sara is the one. I’ll absolutely be booking her again!”

Emma was wonderful! We were very nervous to leave our cat alone for the first time after losing our other cat, but Emma was so great. He was cuddling with her by the second day of her stay! She was great to give us updates and left the house spotless! Highly, highly recommend!
Derri was fantastic with our boys! Both are older, large dogs that require a good bit of somewhat complex medication - Derri managed with great care! Regular updates were sent complete with photos and details on how the boys were doing. Thank you Derri for taking great care of our boys allowing us to have a relaxing vacation knowing everything was good at home!
Rachel was not only a great and communicative dog sitter, she was also very respectful of our home. She was extremely attentive to our shy dog and did her best to make her comfortable and happy. She was also able to give our pittie his meds without any issues. We got plenty of updates and photos! We would trust her with the pups anytime.
Mariah was absolutely perfect!! She did a meet and greet with us and our dog before the stay which was nice! My Doberman loved her!! She took him on walks and played with him in the back yard and sent lots of pictures! She also made us banana bread and left it in the oven for us for when we got home and it was fabulous! Thanks Mariah for making our vacation worry less!! We will definitely use her again if she’s available! ❤️❤️

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 Farragut 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 Farragut 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Farragut 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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
