“It was our first time using a boarder and we were apprehensive about it. Ken and his dogs were wonderful with our Shih Tzu! They made her feel right at home. Ken is a super person and is a natural with pets. He kept us updated with messages and pictures. Our dog had a great time! We will definitely entrust our precious dog with him again !”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I could drive! My family, friends, and neighbors all trust me with their fur babies! I am currently in school full time for physical therapy at ETSU! I am normally available Mondays after 12:00 Wednesdays between 12-2:30 and after 5:00 Thursdays before 12:00 and after 5:00. I am in town a lot of weekends (when I am not visiting home) and would be available from 12:00 Friday through the whole weekend! I always keep dogs on a leash unless we are in a fenced-in area with other trusted animals. My #1 priority is for the dogs, myself, and everyone around me to be safe and happy!
About: I have had pets my whole life! I love walks and hikes, am super clean and reliable, and want to give your pet great care! I work 9am-5pm Monday- Friday. I am free most weekends. I am able to host pets, house sit, or just walk your furry friends when needed! I have a large backyard, live walking distance to trails in a quite neighborhood for safe walks. I do not have any pets at this time, all floors are laminated, with a good amount of space. I keep a clean environment, with chewable or breakable items out of reach!
“Wonderful sitter with great communication and attention to detail. Beautiful large fenced-in property for dogs to safely run and play. I was vacationing out of the country for two weeks and felt very secure that my dogs were in the best of hands. Will definitely be sticking with Rita in the future!”

“Sarah took great care of Milo while I was gone for 6 days! Milo is shy and can be slow to warm up, but she bonded with him and helped him feel comfortable. She sent photos every day and was a great sitter!”


“Highly recommend Melanie for your pup’s stay-cation. She sent us pictures of our sweet Riley, had a big fenced in yard for the pups to run around, and spent a lot of time with her. We felt at ease during our vacation, knowing Riley was well taken care of.”
“Amanda did a wonderful job! Very friendly. Took great care of our two dogs. And provided an update every day we were gone, sometimes including photos. Will definitely use her again.”

“Alyson always takes great care of Aerys. She is very communicative and quick to respond. I would recommend her to anyone. She will care for your pet, like it's her own.”

“Do you want your pets to feel so at home and comfortable that they are upset when they leave? Mark's house is the place to be! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark helped us on short notice and was able to provide us peace and reassurance that our babies were cared for! Mark kept our male and female German Shepherds, and they had an absolute blast. Mark sent us multiple photos and videos and kept us very up-to-date on what they were doing throughout their visit. He asked questions about their personalities and needs that showcased his care and attention to detail. With his knowledge and experience with German Shepherds, it really shined in the care he provided them! I would definitely recommend Mark, and especially recommend Mark to people with German Shepherds or working line dogs! We and our babies would love to use Mark again!”

“Mallory was great with all the details. Meet and greet went well and Lizzie loved her right away. I appreciated all the communication she provided about pickup and drop-off as well as Lizzie's behavior while I was gone. Will def use Mallory and her family again.”

“Sheryl is absolutely wonderful. She cared for our puppy like it was her own. Great communication, highly recommend. Would travel back just for her to take care of our dog! Thank you Sheryl!!”

“You will be very impressed with Erica. My Huckleberry Finn adores her! She will send you pictures and updates the whole time she has your fur baby. Also she takes them for walks and play time”
About: I’ve watched several different sizes, breeds, and ages of dogs since I was 19 years old. I would love to be able to help care for your babies! I currently work as a nurse M-Th 730-5 and Friday 7:30-12. I have an aussiedoodle/border collie at home, during the work week he is let out before work, on my lunch break, and when I’m off. On the weekends he is let out more frequently. He is my buddy and goes everywhere with me, we go for frequent pup cups and park days when weather allows. I treat client pups as if they were my own. I will do whatever is needed to keep the pups and their owners happy ❤️ profile says fully fenced yard -partial fence was not an option. I am in the works of getting it fully fenced. I do have a stake and chain in my front yard and your doggo would never be outside unattended. I also have sidewalks and do not mind going for a stroll and/or around the yard on a leash.

“Jacqui was wonderful with our doodles! They had the perfect weekend! She texted and sent pictures often and was quick to respond! 10/10 will definitely use her for our future needs!”

“Eric did an amazing job watching our dog! Quick communication for our last minute booking and fun picture updates to let us know our dog was having a great stay. Highly recommend!”

Johnson City pet parents share their Rover experiences
Christy was the best dog/cat sitter I could’ve ever asked for! She even planned a meet & greet to come and get a feel for my babies and learn about them so that she could give them the best care possible. She sent me updates and photos throughout my time away, and was incredibly kind and attentive. I will never use anyone else to pet sit again, Christy has my business for life :)

Faith took very good care of my Belgian and we will book with her in the future.This was our first time leaving her with someone and she sent us pictures and videos of her. I do not think we could have left her with anyone else that would have taken as good of care of our baby.

Hailey did an amazing job watching Roxas over the past couple days! She made sure he was as comfortable as possible and made sure to send me plenty of pictures and updates too! She was super on top of the communication! Hailey is definitely someone I would recommend!

Repeat customer here! We always have such peace of mind leaving our sweet pup with Katie and know he will get tons of playtime and lovings! Additionally, we always look forward to the daily picture or video of our pup we receive from Katie while away. We will continue to use Katie for our future dog-sitting needs!
