Tiffany recently pet sit in my home for my two Irish Setters and she was awesome! Tiffany kept me updated. I have one dog that needs a special food and meds and the other one just started her heat cycle the day before I left. Tiffany was not bothered by any of it and kept my girls happy while I was gone. I would absolutely use Tiffany again!!!!

Catherine was wonderful! It was such a last minute booking, but she responded so quickly. It was a genuine relief to have her come and look after my dog and cat on such short notice. Both my dog and cat are of geriatric age and have differing needs with both having different medical conditions. She listened to our concerns and took our pet care instructions seriously. She comforted my dog who has severe separation anxiety and somehow managed to persuade my cat with princess-like standards to eat her entire can of cat food. Throughout the night, she responded quickly and sent pictures and updates. I would definitely book with her again the next time I am traveling with my pets in the Knoxville or Gatlinburg region.

Kim did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs. She took the time to come out and meet them beforehand and get the dogs at ease with her. She stayed in our house with the dogs as they are very spoiled and love to have a sleeping buddy. She is very accommodating to individual schedules and will work with the client to give them what they need for their animals. All of the special requests we needed for our dogs she fulfilled with a cheerful disposable. We wouldn’t hesitate to use her again..

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Not just loving them, but paying attention to them. How they settle into a space. How they react when something feels off. How much of their behavior is tied to routine. My first experience working with animals started when I was 11, helping in a pet shop. Cleaning kennels. Bathing puppies. Learning quickly that care is not just about showing up. It is about understanding what makes an animal feel safe. That has stayed with me. What I’ve learned over time is that most dogs do not struggle because they are “difficult.” They struggle when their environment changes too quickly, or when their routine disappears. That is usually what happens with boarding. A new place. New smells. New dogs. Different energy. Even the best facilities cannot recreate what your dog already knows. And that is where in-home care changes everything. Your dog stays in their space. Their routine stays intact. Their stress stays low. You are not asking them to adjust to everything all at once. You are just making sure they are taken care of. For clients who travel, that means leaving without wondering how their dog is adjusting somewhere unfamiliar. For clients who work long hours, it means coming home to a dog that has already been walked, fed, and paid attention to. Not one that has been waiting all day. ⸻ What I actually do I offer both drop-in visits and walks, depending on what your dog needs. Walks are available in 30 and 60 minute options. Some dogs need a quick reset. Others need time to actually burn energy and settle. I structure walks based on that, not just the clock. I also work with multiple dog households, making sure each dog is handled safely and gets the attention they need. For puppies, walks are not just about getting energy out. They are about exposure. New smells. New environments. Getting comfortable on a leash. Learning how to move through the world without being overwhelmed. That foundation matters more than most people realize. Drop-in visits cover the day-to-day needs. Feeding. Water. Bathroom breaks. Playtime. A reset in the middle of the day. If your schedule keeps you out for long stretches, this becomes the difference between a stressed dog and a regulated one. ⸻ The work itself is simple on paper. But the impact is not. You are giving your dog consistency. You are removing unnecessary stress from their day. You are making sure they still feel like themselves, even when your schedule shifts. I pay attention to the small things. Energy levels. Behavior changes. What they need that day, not just what is on the checklist. Because good care is not about doing more. It is about noticing more. If that is the kind of care you are looking for, I would love to take care of your dog. Pet care fits naturally into my day because I have a flexible schedule and run my own business. I build my days around visits and walks so I am not rushing in and out. Each stop has space for the dog to settle, get what they need, and not feel like part of a tight rotation. Most of my availability falls during standard work hours, which works well for midday walks and drop-in visits. That is usually when dogs need the reset the most. I also keep my schedule intentionally manageable. I am not trying to stack as many bookings as possible. I am making sure each dog gets the time and attention they actually need. Consistency matters here too. Once we establish a routine, I aim to keep it steady so your dog knows what to expect each day. I approach care in your home with one goal in mind. Keep things as consistent and familiar as possible for your dog. I follow the routine you already have in place. Feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, and downtime all happen in a way that feels normal to them. I am not trying to introduce a new system. I am stepping into yours. I pay attention to how your dog responds during each visit. Energy levels, behavior, appetite, and overall comfort. If something feels off, I notice it early. Walks are structured based on what your dog needs that day. Some need a quick reset. Others need more time to move and settle. I adjust accordingly. In between, I make sure they are not just “checked on,” but actually engaged. Whether that is play, reinforcement of good leash habits, or just giving them space to relax if that is what they need. Respecting your home is part of the job as well. Everything is left the way I found it, clean and secure. The goal is simple. Your dog feels comfortable, your routine stays intact, and you can step away without wondering how things are going at home. You will also get a full Rover report from me beyond what you normally get in the app that I have designed to give you a full overview of what’s been going on while you’re away.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for many years. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and give lots of love and attention to their pets. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s energetic puppies or calm senior dogs, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’m a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to be home most of the day and give your pet plenty of attention and supervision. I’m flexible with scheduling and available most weekdays and weekends. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of care. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment complex with safe walking areas and green spaces nearby for regular walks and exercise. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I prioritize leash safety and supervised outdoor time. My home is calm and structured, and I follow each pet’s routine closely. I can crate if needed and will always treat your pet with love, patience, and responsibility

About: in my family circle when it comes to their pet sitting needs, I am always the go to. Caregiving is my specialty. I will always treat all animals as if they were my own. I work part time, and I’m also a full time college student so I don’t have all the availability in the world, but I still have room for it here and there!! I care for my own pet daily and often times pitch in for other pet owners here and there when it is needed. I have compassion for all animals and their unique situations. I will safely follow all instructions and make sure any and all pets are in a safe and secure environment to the extent of my ability.

About: I’ve had pets all my life with differing personalities and needs. A lot of my pets I’ve trained myself. I can’t imagine a better way to earn money than to love your fur baby! I’m between jobs right now, so my sole focus will be on your fur baby. I’m consistent with taking them out and caring for them, so your family will be well taken care of❤️ I have two dogs to keep your baby company, and they are the highlight of my life, so your baby will fit right in, too. I have no problem going to your house if your pet needs a little space, too.

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a kid. I've pet-sat for a few years outside of Rover, in addition to having a dog of my own and one frog. I also volunteered at an equestrian therapy center for a few years, where I took care of the horses and the barn cat. I work part-time at my other job 4-5 days a week. I am most available in the afternoon and evening. However, my work schedule is flexible with advance notice! I mostly do overnight pet sitting with clients outside of Rover, but I also offer drop-in visits and walks. I can fit in at least 2 drop-in visits or walks into my daily schedule. I want to make your pets feel safe with me! My goal is to temporarily blend in with your home and not disrupt your pet’s usual routine.

About: I love furbabies! I have raised or cared for everything from a tiny Irish Jack Russell to a Great Pyrenees as well as many, many kittens and cats. I am happy to answer any questions so please...ask my anything! I can provide detailed care as needed for your pets, as each is unique and has individual wants/needs to feel comfortable. And will do everything possible to make them feel at home and happy! I work from home doing art and freelance graphic design and my husband and I run a mobile coffee shop on the weekends. I cook for my dogs about once a week, take them on walks and hikes and for drives around the neighborhood when the weather is bad...they love it. I paint commissioned pet portraits and my coffee business is called Sleepy Dog Coffee. Animals are my life. We have two fenced in areas for dogs and a large house that is pet friendly. We designed the house to have a dog shower and heated/ac pet sleeping room in our garage where we keep their crates but sometimes they sleep in our bed!

Matti was awesome with our crew while we were away for the weekend. I received pictures with an update daily without even having to ask. She treated our home with respect and went above and beyond leaving it as if she wasn't even there. We will definitely be using her again.
