Simply the best. We’ve taken our boys to Kristy several times now. They know when we’re getting close to her house and always so happy to walk right inside! She’s amazing! Thank you, Kristy!

Melissa was amazing. I’d never boarded my dog before and was a littler nervous. She seemed very confident when we met and I could tell my dog immediately respected her. While I was gone, she sent me pictures and updates of how my dog was doing. I can tell he enjoyed his stay with her and was taken care of. She even gave us a handwritten card saying thank you! I’ll definitely be reaching out to Melissa again if I need someone to watch him.

I was extremely pleased with my experience with Jenny! This was my first time using Rover so I was a little bit nervous, but she made the experience very easy. She sent me videos and pictures and updates on my pups often which I really appreciated. She has a big backyard with a fence that my dogs loved running around in. I definitely will be using Jenny again when I’m in the area.

Amazing as always! I don’t ever even consider using anyone else because Millie loves spending time with them and sometimes I’m convinced she doesn’t want to come home with me after visiting with them. Love love love using this family and trust them with Millie completely.

Angela was the best sitter I have ever used in Rover. She was very caring but prefessional. She slowly introduced my dog to her dog, Goldie by separating her at fist meet, because Angela considered that my dog is scared of some big dogs. She is very considering and ma

Olivia was great with our 2 year old lab. He was in her care for 10 nights while we were on vacation and she did a fabulous job with him. She was sending daily updates and pictures proving that he was having a great time playing with their pup. He got an embedded tick and Olivia notified us immediately and took care of it. She even gave him a bath right before coming home. Highly recommend Olivia, we will definitely use her services again in the future!

Lauretta and her family treated Mauser like their own for the entire duration of his stay. He was definitely a spoiled man. She sent so many pictures to keep me updated, and responded quickly to all of my messages. Lauretta also happily worked with me on a last-minute change to the pickup time, which I greatly appreciated. I highly recommend, and I will be booking with her again.

They have a nice yard and Gizmo bonded with Kirk immediately I got pictures a few times a day and if I texted to check on him, the response was immediate. Thank you so much!!

Brittany has watched my pup many times. She always takes extra good care of him and our dogs became quick friends! My dog is 11 and struggles with arthritis. She was able to get him his supplements and medications when he got sore. She loves animals and would be a great fit for anyone looking for pet care.

My dog absolutely LOVED her stay with Sydney when I was traveling! Sydney is very communicative and super professional. She made sure to send updates and pictures throughout the stay, and was very easy to get ahold of for drop-off and pick-up. Sydney is now my go-to pet sitter here in Knoxville, and I’d recommend her services to all of my friends who are dog owners!

Caillynn kept in touch with me the whole time I was gone to let me know how the dogs were doing and how they did for the day. I feel like the dogs were in good hands when I left to go on vacation and felt the same way when I got back and pick them up. I would recommend caillynn anytime and would use her again.

Kristen has stayed with my pets from time to time over the last 15 years. I know my dogs are well cared for and walked when she stays with them. She is a good communicator, sends check-ins and takes great care of my home. I know she loves my dogs and that gives me peace of mind while I am away. Highly recommend!
