Top rated Heiskell cat sitters
“Denise is wonderful! She is very attentive and sends pictures and videos of the pets each day while you are on vacation. It made me smile to be able to see my precious kitties while being so far away from home!”
“We loved having Ali take care of our cat! She did an amazing job with her and always communicated with me promptly on how she was doing or if she had any concerns. She also has a wealth of knowledge giving us more comfort in leaving our pet with her. Would highly recommend!”
“She’s been amazing with my older cat, even with her potty accidents and medication! Would definitely recommend her, she even fed my betta fish too 🥹”
“Melissa was so great with our pets! She is very professional, prepared, and takes detailed notes on pets and requests. She had no problem with last minute instructions when we had to take our Kitty to vet right before leaving and kept us well informed. She even took extra time to play with the kitties sometimes and took portrait worthy pics! Will be rebooking!”
“Karson was wonderful with our Charlie! We'd never left him before and were gone on an extended vacation. She was sure to send us photos each day and communicated any changes or needs. She even went above and beyond! Will be using her again in the future!”
“Rachel took care of my cats for two weeks at my home while I am away for international travelling. My cats are typically scared of others for almost few weeks, but they like her very quickly. She did more than I requested to make my cats happy and share video and photo of them updating their status.”
“Mandy is a repeat sitter for me! I will continue to rebook her as long as I can for future needs. She is great with my cat, prompt with responses, and highly professional. She does great with both feeding/drop in visits and overnights.”
“Hayley was absolutely amazing with my cat Nadja. Typically Nadja is shy around new people but Hayley was able to get her to come out of her shell pretty fast, and I knew she would be well taken care of while I was gone.”
About: I've been walking neighbors dogs since I was a small kid, volunteered at local animal shelters (walked their dogs), and also have cared for a senior dog (16 year-old poodle) before. I've learned to become patient with pets, especially when cleaning up accidents! I'm a college student at UTK, but I have open time in the mornings, afternoon, and night every weekday. On weekends, I have meetings in the afternoons, but I can still care for pets in the morning and night. I'm confident in my cleanliness, care to detail, and love for pets. I'll care for pets with my whole heart, love them as I would love my own pets, and ensure the pets have a nice experience with me.
“Emma was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad I chose her to look after my fur baby. She sent plenty of photos and made sure my cat, Freyja, got plenty of love and treats while I was away. I’ll definitely be rebooking with Emma!”
“Desiree was professional, understanding of my cats needs (since one takes medications), and had detailed Rover reports which eased may anxiety. If I ever need a pet sitter again, I will absolutely be reaching out to her. She was fantastic!”
“Sarah is great, she has great communication and went above and beyond what was asked of her in several ways. Will definitely use her services again”
“Liz was very reliable when our plans changed and needed extra care time, caring and thoughtful! Very grateful for her!”
“I can tell Archie has a good time with Alicia from the photos she sends, the purring is almost audible! Everything is clean and neat and Archie is content when I come back.”
“Daniella did great drop in care for my kitties! She kept me updated daily with messages and pictures and was very responsive to my messages. I highly recommend her.”
About: I have always had dogs in my life. I have worked in vetmed ER/ICU for 3 years, so I am very familiar with all the love and attention any animal needs. I can give meds in all the routes, including insulin if needed. I have a special interest in behavior and training, so if your dog (cat) needs and particular help or routine I am happy to assist. I have done many odds and ends pet sitting jobs, so I ma happy to help with whatever you need. I am currently holding a summer research job, so I have anole and flexible hours to take care of pets anytime. I am happy to do morning and nights for summer vacation have a, and midday check-ins for busy workers. I am typically not out of the house for more than four hours a day, so boarded pets won't be left alone too long. I always ensure that I am ready to block the door as I enter for all those excited fur babies and door dashers. I double check all tasks and all pets before leaving the house. In my house, I have a separate basement to keep pets separated from my own if needed. My cats are dog tolerant, having grown up with dogs. They won't be best friends, but they won't be bullies either.
“Jasmine is amazing. We unfortunately had to get back home sooner than expected since my husband got sick, but Jasmine still made sure our cats were fed on time and cared for. We will be booking with her again soon!”
About: i’ve taken care of my friends’/family’s dogs over the years… from the “big” newfoundlands and great pyrenees to the “small” shih zhus and dachshunds! i have taken care of puppies and seniors from energetic to sleepy fur babies. I can take care of and/or walk your pups while you’re at work or off on your next adventure! I’m currently a full time student at the University of Tennessee at the Herbert College of Agriculture. I work a part time job a few times a month during semesters. Through the week I have some availability! Most weekends are fully available! I will happily play with your babies inside or outside as specified and follow all notes you leave for me! Safety is the number one priority when caring for your own and others’ animals!
About: My first ever job in high school was working for a doggy daycare, training, and grooming facility. This is where my love for animals of every kind bloomed, and i personally have a horse, two dogs, and a cat at my home away from college that I miss very much. At my knoxville home I adore taking my friend's dogs hiking and to the dog park to fulfill that itch of spending time with furry friends. I am a student doing rover part time during the summer and I volunteer at a hospital in town on Monday every week for two hours and an animal shelter with kitties for two hours every Thursday evening. I am very meticulous about maintaining the perfect care for my pets and yours. I understand how important these members of the family are, and I do very well when given a specific list. My love for the outdoors and hiking specifically complement the energetic pups, but I am just as happy to relax at home to study or read.
About: Hey y'all! I have a love for animals and I'm looking for pets to hang out with and care for while I'm in school and working a full time job. I'm going to school to get my veterinary technician license with Penn Foster. Luckily, it's a strictly online school! I'm also a full-time Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital, so I have plenty of experience with caring for animals. Friends and family have always considered me very trustworthy with their pets since I was young! I can't remember a time when I didn't love animals. I have been pet sitting for a few years for my family and parents' coworkers, but I thought I would step it up and try Rover! I currently work at an animal hospital and I previously worked at a doggy daycare. All of this while also being in school to get my license! These experiences have helped me gain important skills and qualifications to take care of any pet! Some of the skills that make me qualified include: -Giving oral medication -Injectable medication -Senior dog experience -First Aid -Bathing -Walking -Providing boarding care (keeping up with food, water, and playtime) -and of course I'm experienced with providing a whole lotta love! I'm currently working around 32-36 hours a week at an animal hospital, which means I work long hours occasionally, but I will still make plenty of time to stay with your fur babies and watch over them before and after work. My pet is animal reactive so she has to be kept on a leash when taken out to go potty. She eats 1 cup in the AM and PM

Evelyn Y.
“I can’t say put into words how great Evie is! They’re one of the biggest animal lovers I’ve met with a special talent to become immediate best friends with any critter they stumble upon. Beyond their compassion for all four legged, two tongued, and winged creatures, they are an incredibly hard worker and always go above and beyond with any job they take on. There’s only a handful of people in the world I’d entrust my animals care with, and Evie is definitely at the top of this list!”

Lauren B.
“Miss Lauren Beckers is a wonderful and perfect candidate to become a pet sitter. She has such a kind heart and love for all fur babies. Lauren has an admirable work ethic and great communication skills. I have witnessed her care and love for her own kitties. Others would be so lucky for Lauren to be able to provide that same care and compassion. Lauren is also extremely trustworthy and has no problem showing ownership. She is one of the very few individuals that I would trust to look after my babies. :)”
Chloe H.
“Chloe has taken care of my dog for me while I was out of town many times and has been an excellent caregiver. My dog loves her and she has made sure I don’t have to worry about him when he’s under her care. She is very attentive with her own pets and the pets of others. She doesn’t just give them the bare necessities but also gives them her full attention and spends time playing with them. I would 100% recommend her as a pet caregiver.”
