About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was in college. I’ve been looking after pups ever since. My current best friend is a theee-legged mutt named Jeff and he loves when company comes over. I’m a freelance editor who works from home so I set my own schedule. I keep a pretty regular routine with my own dog. We shouldn’t have any trouble adapting to your pet’s needs. I have a big fenced in backyard and can do most of my work from the screeened in porch. That’s nice because it lets me keep an eye on the pooch while also feeling less like a cave hermit hunched over a keyboard all day.

“We booked last minute & she still took our little Bentley! Was extremely understanding because we were running late. Sent pictures and videos all day letting us know how he was doing. She is amazing & the sweetest! We will definitely be bringing Bentley back to play with the other dogs❤️❤️ He had a great time.”


“Talk about “above and beyond” - Khasia was amazing to work with - and on very short notice! Goldie was very well taken care of and I would not hesitate to use Khasia again. She was polite, professional, and very kind.”


About: I’ve had different dogs in my life. I enjoy being with them. I give them baths and treats I do some grooming but mostly baths. I like to take them on walks at seven island bird park. I am currently working full time at a Mother’s Day out. I will have plenty of time to spend with your puppies! I like to meet new friends including furry ones they bring joy and excitement to my life. When I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life as I was growing up I wanted to be a vet. I always have a special place for dogs in my heart. They will be loved and cared for like they are my own. I don’t have a fence in yard I have an underground fence. I have a big yard that they can play in I have 2 furry friends that they can play with.

About: I have lived with dogs from a young age. I have trained dogs and loved dogs all my life. I frequently watch my friends dogs and I am always available for walk. Dogs seem to love me and the feeling is mutual. I am responsible and I have my own means of transportation. You can trust that your loved one will be taken well care of in my home. I know how important these best friends are I currently work from my apartment with no set schedule. I am very active and I walk my dog Luna about 4 miles a day, broken up into smaller walks. I do not have a fenced yard but I live adjacent to a fenced dog park. I can provide a crate,leashes and dog toys if needed.

About: I have been a pet owner my entire life. After losing my 15 year old beagle, I became a foster parent with various animal shelters. I have successfully rescued 15 dogs and placed them with their forever families. My last foster boy, I ended up falling in love and adopting him as my own. His name is Roland.. I have a fenced in backyard and a private room with a doggie door to allow access to the yard. I would prefer one dog at a time (plus mine) But can make exceptions after their first stay. I currently work full time in an office 5 mins away. So I can check on my fur babies during lunch hour. Please see my calendar for Availability. I always keep my dog, Roland, separated from my new Rover pets until they get acclimated to being somewhere new. I also have the ability to keep my dog separated if my Rover needs privacy. Safety first.

I am new to this app! I go to college at University of Tennessee, Knoxville. I have a flexible schedule and want to spend my free-time doing what I love- being with dogs!
