“She takes a ton of pictures and follows instructions exactly. She takes care of our dogs plus the added benefit of seeing our dogs have fun and be relaxed with her. It was a last minute request which she eagerly honored and we are so grateful that someone could check on our pups while we were away. It was such a last minute need (we stayed at the aquarium too long and needed someone to check on them the same day) and she fulfilled all our needs as well as went over the top to make sure we were informed of the care. I will be booking again if needed!”
“Rebecca was an absolute life saver and amazing watching our dog while we were gone for a week! She jumped in last moment when our original sitter cancelled and had our little one in great hands. She is very communicative, a quick responder, and we really appreciated the full updates and numerous pictures with each check in. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Courtney was willing to check in our our girls with little notice and did a phenomenal job. My pets were loved and cared for and she sent great updates. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Lucas was amazing! We had a last minute need for someone to lay our dogs out on a holiday weekend. I inquired at close to midnight and he responded quickly - which is a bonus because I didn’t expect to hear anything until morning! He communicated when he was there, let us know he was running a few minutes late, and sent us pictures! We will definitely use Lucas again.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrigan was absolutely amazing with Macy while we were on vacation! She stayed in touch with us throughout the entire trip, sent us pictures and updates, and truly went above and beyond to make sure we knew Macy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Being away from your pup can be stressful, but Terrigan made it so easy for us to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing Macy was in such great hands. It was obvious how much care and attention she gave Macy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We came home to a happy pup, and that says everything! We will absolutely use Terrigan again and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring to look after their fur baby. Thank you so much, Terrigan! ❤️🐾”
“Beverly dropped in to feed our 3 Golden retrievers. She was eager to help on short notice which made our lives so much easier. She cooked some chicken for them, fed them according to their specific dietary needs and sent detailed feedback on how dinner went. I can definitely recommend Beverly for drop in visits to help give you peace of mind. Thanks Beverly for being so communicative and for sending a pic of Ben having dinner!”
“Lillian was great with Dyson and kept us updated on each visit. She was so patient and kind. Dyson can be difficult with strangers but she was adaptable to make sure his needs were met and make each check-in add low stress as possible. This was our first time leaving him and we were nervous, but she really set our minds at ease with her great communication and updates. 10 out of 10 - would highly recommend!”
“Thank you so much Alexandra for the help with our fur babies. She took care of our 2 crazy frenchies and a grumpy ole cat while we visited our grandkids. She sent pictures to us and when we check in on the cameras they were happy to see her. I would highly recommend Alexandra for your pet needs. :)”
“Lauren was great and we’ll definitely work with her again. Her communication was excellent and thorough, and she was able to quickly develop a relationship with our cat. Lauren followed directions to the T, and made recommendations on things I hadn’t thought about. Lauren gave us peace of mind and I highly recommend her!”
About: I was a care taker of a dog for 12 years so I have plenty of experience taking care of dogs and taking dogs on walks. I also was a care taker of a cat for 5 years. I was in charge of giving the cat food, water, and doing the cat’s litter box. I have been pet sitting/ house sitting for almost two years and have done countless house sitting jobs. My work schedule right now is Monday, Thursday, and Friday 9 AM - 5:30 PM and Tuesdays and Wednesday 11:30 AM - 8:00 PM. I’m available on weekends too. I’m also willing to spend the night to make sure your pet gets the best care. I have a ton of experience with keeping dogs safe as I use to care for my dog for 12 years. I make sure they don’t eat anything that is unhealthy for me and I make sure they don’t get in any danger
“Lydia is AWESOME! She went above and beyond as our sitter. Not only did she hanging out with our kitty but she also brought my packages out of the rain. Lydia was really kind and quickly won over my grumpy cat. She’s a keeper for sure!”
“Wonderful pet (cat) sitter! Olive was very comfortable with Olivia. Maybe too comfortable bossing her around begging for treats and scratches. 😹 Great communication and pics/videos sent to us too! Will book 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!!”
“Cassie was great! She was very positive and responsive and helpful and easy to work with. She came by a couple days before to meet my dog and see my house and I had no issues while I was gone. I felt like my dog was taken care of— she’s a senior dog, 14, and she did a great job. She took pictures. She updated me about her well-being. She took her for a walk each drop-in and she refilled her bowls.”
“Dani did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were on vacation. She was very dependable and did everything we needed and more. I would definitely recommend her and will use her services again if needed.”
“Jessica dropped in on our dogs for a week while we were out of state, and I couldn't have been happier with choosing her! She was prompt, played lots with the dogs, made sure they were happy, and let me know when there were any unexpected things that happened! We got lots of pictures and updates! We will be coming back to her first in the future! Couldn't recommend enough!”
About: I've had both cats and dogs my whole life and I have been boarding and walking dogs through River for about three years now! I recently relocated to Knoxville and am excited to take on new clients to spend time with their fur babies and treat them as my own! Lots of treats and lots of love involved typically 🤗 I am able to walk dogs or drop by and check on your dog or cat any time of the week or weekend! I am flexible so I can fit whatever day or time works best for my clients. I do not currently board in my home. If I come to your home to watch after your pet, I am very respectful of your home and the items in it. I want to make your pet as comfortable as possible and maintain their regular eating schedule. I will ensure they have access to drinking water at all times and get frequent potty breaks, every two hours or so. We will go for walks, if permitted, and spend extra time with play toys and cuddles!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Heiskell
Alexandra was wonderful with Queen. She was communicative, punctual, followed instructions carefully, and asked thoughtful questions. Giving fluids solo is not easy, and she handled it confidently while keeping me updated with photos. Queen seemed relaxed and well cared for. I would definitely book Alexandra again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Heiskell on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,200 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Heiskell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Heiskell stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Heiskell. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
