House Sitting in Heiskell

“Here’s a great review you can use for your dog sitter: Review: [Dog sitter’s name] was absolutely amazing! Super reliable, very communicative, and gave my dog lots of love and attention. I got regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

“We’re so glad we found Meredith to help us take care of our 4-month-old puppy and senior cat. They’re both a handful but Meredith is so loving and professional with them. My fur babies can’t wait to see her again!”

Sarah Z.

“Emery did an amazing job looking after my 2 dogs and my house when I had to take a last-minute work trip. They each have very different needs/temperaments but Emery did a wonderful job attending to them both. She even left them custom-made REPORT CARDS that are now pinned to my fridge. 10/10, highly recommend, will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

“Chloe took care of our 3 dogs and she was wonderful! She was reliable and kept us updated with texts and photos. Our dogs loved her. She went above and beyond to take care of our pups and we would highly recommend her!”

Maggie T.

“Melissa is the BEST doggy sitter! She goes above and beyond for both me and my baby and I am so at ease having her stay at my home with him while I’m gone. You’re in for a real treat when you choose Melissa as your sitter!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years, from energetic puppies to giant breeds! I currently have a 4 month old Great Dane named Ozzy, so I’m no stranger to fast-growing pups with big personalities. I also dog-sit regularly for a Great Pyrenees/Border Collie mix, who I’ve cared for since he was a puppy. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I understand the importance of routine, gentle training, and giving each pet the attention and affection they need to feel safe and happy. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just snuggles on the couch, I tailor my care to each dog’s needs. In addition to personal experience, I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter and worked at a kennel, where I handled dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including shy rescues, reactive dogs, and those with medical needs. I’ve supported everything from group playtime and walks to feeding, crate training, medication routines and managing multiple pets at once—including cats, rabbits, and birds! Pet care is a part of my daily life—I build my routine around the animals I care for. As a pet parent myself, I’m used to early morning feedings, regular walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I work from home (or have a flexible schedule), which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention and maintain their usual routines. Whether I’m hosting a dog in my home or visiting pets in theirs, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I’m also used to adjusting my schedule to fit specific feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and medication if needed. Because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s a meaningful and fulfilling part of my day. Safety is my top priority when caring for your pets. Whether it’s making sure gates and doors are securely closed, using proper leash techniques, or keeping harmful items out of reach, I take every precaution to create a secure environment. I’m trained and experienced in recognizing signs of stress or discomfort so I can intervene early and keep your pet calm and safe. Building trust with both pets and their owners is essential. I approach every new animal with patience and respect, allowing them to get comfortable at their own pace. Communication with owners is open and transparent—I provide regular updates, photos, and feedback to ensure you always feel confident and informed about your pet’s care. I strive to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel at home. Whether in your space or mine, I adapt to their routines and preferences, providing consistency that helps reduce anxiety and supports their well-being.

“Hannah took great care of my pups. She corresponded each day, and shared photo updates. Two of my pups are very very old, and require extra care. She did a great job with them. I also came home to a totally clean house.”

Lauren G.

“First time we have ever left our dogs overnight that we returned to happy, relaxed puppers. They obviously loved hanging out with Angela. She kept me updated on the situation at the house and I found it immaculate when I returned. Angela didn't move a single item out of place and things were kept just as clean as when I left. I can't recommend Angela enough. She is a rare find.”

Mindy R.

“Taylor did an amazing job watching all our animals! I got a lot of updates and when we came back, our animals were happy and the house was immaculate! We will definitely be using him again to house sit for us!”

Cora A.

“Katie did a great job looking after my kittens and dog. I came home to my house being exactly as I left it, and I appreciated the updates and photos. I would recommend her and will book her again to house sit.”

About: I’m a proud dog mom to two pups—one full of energy and the other a total couch potato—so I’m used to handling different personalities! I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I treat every pet I care for like my own. I’m currently studying online for my real estate license, so my schedule is super flexible! I can easily adjust my day to fit your pet’s needs—whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else—that’s why I prioritize communication and trust. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, and I’m happy to accommodate any special requests or needs your pet may have.

“MaShon is an amazing pet sitter! She is so kind and thoughtful you can really tell she cares about your pets! She is also a great communicator before, during and after your reservation. We couldn't be happier with her services and would absolutely hire her again.”

About: I am a current veterinary student at the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine, where I am pursuing companion animal medicine. I have spent the past 2 years working in a vet clinic, where a majority of my experience has been working with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I am new to Rover, but I have 10+ years of experience pet sitting and taking care of others’ fur babies! I am a full time veterinary student, typically at school 8 am - 5 pm, Monday through Friday. I can offer drop in visits a couple of times during weekdays, but I am available to spend more time with your pets on the weekends. I am unable to care for pets in my home, but I am more than happy to commute to take care of your pet(s) at your home. I strive to make your pet(s) feel loved and comfortable while you’re gone by playing and loving on them, taking them for walks, administering medications if needed, etc.

About: Hi, I’m Monica! I live in Oak Ridge and absolutely love meeting new pets of all breeds and personalities. I’ve cared for up to six dogs at once and have experience with a variety of breeds including Chows, Boxers, Labradors, Great Danes, and Labradoodles. Whether it’s going on walks, playtime in the yard, or little adventures, I make sure your pet stays happy, active, and loved. I’m also experienced with medication schedules and special care needs—one dog I watched had thyroid issues and needed medication at the same time every day, so I know how important consistency is for their health and comfort. I work from home, which means I’m super flexible and able to give your pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I’d love the opportunity to care for yours! I work from home so I can be super flexible, especially if your dog needs medication at a certain time of the day or week. I care for pets in their home by following their regular routine, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and love, and keeping their space clean and safe. I make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while you're away. At this time, I am not offering pet care in my own home.

“Claire was absolutely amazing with our babies! It gave us such peace of mind to know they were being well taken care of and loved. She gave us updates, but didn't have to be in constant communication. We will definitely be calling Claire again!! 🐾🐾”

Karen M.

“Awesome sitter! Sent pictures to give me reassurance that my dog was being taken care of - wasn't worried one bit. Would have her sit for me anytime!”

Tyler G.

“Jolie is amazing with my 3 dogs! I know when I leave them they will be 100% treated like her own. This trip, she went above and beyond due to storms in the area. It was a relief to know someone I trusted was with them while I wasn’t.”

About: I have had animals in my home my entire life! I absolutely love animals and my dream is to own an animal rescue. I have 2 cats of my own and they are spoiled beyond measure. I’m very well experienced with large dogs and cats. I do work a full time job Monday - Friday 8:00-5:00. I am available during my lunch break between 12:00-1:00 daily and every evening. My weekends tend to be pretty busy but during times when I’m free, I can make myself available as needed. Unfortunately, my dog does not do well with other dogs so overnight boarding in my home isn’t an option. However, I’m happy to house sit in your home if needed. I am very attentive to animals and a clean freak so you will never have to worry about coming home to a mess.

“I wish I could leave a 6-star review. Emma was spectacular. She kept us completely informed as to the well-being of our fur babies. Daily pics. She treated our house as she would her own. I would highly recommend and reuse Emma.”

“Liz did a great job in caring for my 2 dogs and 1 cat. What I liked a lot os how she sent photos and kept me updated on how things were going. She also texted immediately when she saw a neighbor giving treats to be sure I was aware.”
