“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Melissa was absolutely amazing with our four fur babies! From the moment we met her, it was clear how genuine and loving she is with animals. She was a fantastic communicator throughout our time away—keeping us updated and giving us complete peace of mind. What truly stood out was how much time she spent just loving on them, not simply checking boxes but really caring for them as if they were her own. Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we returned. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking Melissa again. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾💛”
“Elle was great with our 2 kitties! I also booked the wrong week and she was so kind and easy to work with to correct the dates last minute. I will be using her again whenever we need a sitter. Thank you Elle.”
“Emma was absolutely fantastic! She really showed care while taking care of our cats! It was a huge relief knowing they were well taken care of while we were out of town for so long.”
“Alex was great dropping in daily over a long trip to care for my two cats. They didn’t tear anything up like cats like to do, and she took great care to keep their areas clean! I got daily pics and she was sure to give them love while I had to be gone for so long. Highly recommend!!”

About: Over the past 11 years, I have dedicated myself to the lifelong care of my two dogs, gaining an intimate understanding of canine development from puppyhood through their senior years. This journey has fostered a deep-seated passion for pet advocacy and specialized care. Whether meticulously managing Cookie’s daily medical regimen for allergies or providing a steady, reassuring presence for Snowball’s anxiety, I approach every unique need with unwavering patience and heart. I am committed to bringing this same level of attentive, high-standard care to your pets, ensuring their health and emotional well-being are always the top priority. I work full-time remote so I can care for your pets almost on a 24/7 basis guaranteeing that they are looked after. I can take breaks whenever as needed, so I can fully tailor to your pets' potty schedule. I have a fenced in backyard for your pets to freely roam outside. While inside, we don't restrict any area from pets. We have two dogs to keep your pets company.
“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 animals ever since I was a little kid. I would dog sit my neighbors animals when they would go on vacations for full weeks or weekends. I would sometimes stay at their houses overnight or go by a few times a day. It would just depend on what was requested. I work from eight to five Monday through Friday and I have all weekends off!! My schedule is pretty free and flexible throughout the weekend. I live in an apartment complex but I do have a dog park there! I also live right down from Concord park in Farragut where I can go and play and walk them.
About: I have had dogs all my life since age 5. Animals are my favorite things on this earth! I have 2 senior dogs and a cat who I care deeply for and will provide the upmost love and care to your fur babies also! I work part time and make my own schedule. Sometimes I even take my dog to work- I am a licensed therapist and know the beauty of animal support. I have a fenced yard with 2 senior dogs, a lab mix female and black male pug. I also have a 2 year old female cat that mostly stays in my daughter’s room.
About: Animals are my passion. I’ve had dogs and cats all my life and currently have 3 dogs and two cats of my own. I have a senior dog that requires daily medications, with a specialty in hiding the pill 🤭. I also foster dogs for local rescues and shelters and will dog sit when other fosters are out of town. I truly can’t wait to spoil your fur baby. They give love with no conditions and deserve the same back ❤️. I have the flexibility to drop in as needed! I do have a young child and am usually not able to do overnight stays at this point, but will update as that becomes available in the future. Volunteering in the local shelter has given me some experience in making a dog that I meet for the first time more comfortable. I’m happy to do whatever your pet needs to feel at ease.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old and have experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. With over 10 years of dog sitting experience, I’m confident caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’ve owned both a 90+ lb English Bulldog and a 10 lb Chihuahua–Toy Poodle mix, so I’m very comfortable with all sizes and energy levels. I’m also experienced in following routines and administering medications, such as giving pills with food. I also grew up in a family of cat lovers and have always had cats in my life. I’ve cared for cats at all life stages, including raising a kitten who lived to be 20 years old. Currently, I have two kittens, Opie and Charlie (a Russian Blue and a Ragdoll mix), so I’m very familiar with kitten care, feeding routines, and different personalities. I truly treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time at Publix but with two weeks notice I can be pretty flexible. On days I do work I have an hour break so I can always stop in on my break for a potty break. It is always best to ask me because with proper notice i am very flexible. I live in an apartment complex with a rule of no over night pet visitors, so I will have to watch your pets at your house. But I have always lived in a neighborhood or close to a park where I could walk my dogs. My pets have a very set feeding schedule that they stick to very close so I am good with a feeding schedule. I have also owned pets with diet needs so I am used to needing dietary restrictions or accommodation.
About: Hi! I’m Jessica and I would love to treat your fur babies like my own! I have been working in animal shelters for ten years and I’ve been a vet tech for 4 years. I have fostered over 200 homeless animals- ranging from 1 day old kittens to geriatric doggos and everything in between! I have no issue with medically needy animals and have boarded animals needing everything from wound care to diabetes management. As a vet tech, I’m experienced in animal handling and fear-free approaches to helping animals feel right at home when they stay with me. My goal is to give your pets the best home-away-from-home they could ask for! I’m currently working from home so I can devote all my time to caring for your animals and giving them love! They wouldn’t be left unattended for any extended periods of time. I have a fenced yard and a large neighborhood so your pups would get plenty of exercise through walks and time in the backyard. I have two very friendly dogs that can keep yours company, but they can also be kept 100% separate from your dog if that makes you more comfortable. For cats, I have a spare room so they have their own space, and I have lots of fun at toys to provide endless entertainment!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past few eyes and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I have been in your shoes trying to find the right person, too! I regularly pet sit for friends & family and genuinely love spending time with animals. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can easily swing by to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and company while you’re away! I currently work from home so I can swing by early in the mornings or late afternoon to hang out with your pet or go on walks. Or, swing by mid afternoon. I am usually open most weekends. When caring for pets in a clients home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I will also make to keep the home tidy and provide as many updates/pictures as you would like!
About: Medically retired Veteran and stay at home dad with lots of time on my hands to care for fur kids and keep a watchful eye on them. I have dog sat for friends' pets and personal pets that I've owned for over 30 years. I don't currently have another job. So, aside from medical appointments, I don't have any issues with daily or weekly routines. I should be able to conform to any and all needs. I always care for every pet as though that pet were my own. I know how sensitive each pet can be, so I try my best to keep that in mind when dealing with someone else's pet.
About: I am a dog mom to 2 reactive dogs, so I'm patient and understanding of different types of behaviors in dogs. I will care for your fur baby like they're mine! I am currently only working part-time, so I will have plenty of time for your fur babies! Very open to different schedules that suit both of our needs I will always send updates and pictures from my time with your pet. I understand the stress of having a stranger care for your fur family members, and I will of course care for them like they're my own!
Karns cat parents share their Rover experiences
Jessica was incredible with my new anxious cat. She was a life saver! She came over to do my new adopted cat’s ear drops for me because I was having a hard time and she was able to get my runner of a cat, wrap him up gently and administer the drops. So grateful for her help.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Melissa was absolutely amazing with our four fur babies! From the moment we met her, it was clear how genuine and loving she is with animals. She was a fantastic communicator throughout our time away—keeping us updated and giving us complete peace of mind. What truly stood out was how much time she spent just loving on them, not simply checking boxes but really caring for them as if they were her own. Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we returned. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking Melissa again. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾💛
After a small hiccup in communication at the beginning of the visit, Alexa was amazing. She followed the instructions I had for the cats, she provided daily reports, and she left the house clean and tidy, which isn’t always the easiest when you’re dealing with cats. She was great and I would absolutely use her again in the future!
