“Allison was great! She showed up on time and assured me Bear would be in good hands. She sent photos and responded to any texts quickly. The house looked great when we got back. I can't wait to use her again!”
“Bethany watched my 3 dogs while I was away for a long weekend. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She kept me updated with pictures, followed all instructions, and gave my pups so much love and attention. So thankful to have a peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind dog sitter!”
“Lexi was amazing at communicating and made our puppies feel comfortable and cozy while we were gone. I couldn’t be more grateful for such an intuitive, caring pup nanny. ?”
About: My husband and I have a passion for animals! We have 2 senior rescue chihuahuas who are cuddle bugs! Our babies are treated better than humans. All animals are allowed to sleep in our bed and lay on furniture. This is their home and we want them to live their best life!!! I work from home so I am home all day every day and will be able to provide your babies all day attention and love! We look forward to meeting your fur baby/ babies! I would love to hear from you! With me working from home, I am available to give your babies love and attention throughout the day and to ensure they have all of the cuddles, playtime, love, and attention both day and night!
“Lindsey made me feel super at ease as a first time Rover user. I needed someone to house sit as well as pet sit and she made sure everything and everyone was well taken care of! When we arrived home the house was clean and the pets were happy! Highly recommend.”
“Gracen did an excellent job pet sitting at our home. Our senior pup and 3 senior kitties adore her. Gracen communicates often and provides great feedback complete with photos. Thank you Gracen. Knowing our pet family is so well cared for allows us to take time away without worry. Appreciate you!”
“Stephanie done a terrific job with all 4 of my babies. They all have a few quirks but she just jumped in and had all 4 attached to her hip. So happy I was able to find such a caring person to watch them while I was away. Highly recommend !”
“Emery was wonderful!! She took care of our 100 lb German Shepherd who requires a little extra TLC with medications, etc. She took care of everything at our house while we were traveling, and left us an adorable report card for how Rocco did.”
“Elaina was great with my cats! She sent updates and pictures and the both came out to visit, which one of them is a tad shy and takes a bit to warm up to people. Will definitely be trying to use her again in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m a PA student in Knoxville with over 8 years of experience dog sitting and house sitting. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, responsible, and outgoing, and I love spending time outdoors, so your dog can count on plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. Whether your pet enjoys being active or prefers a quiet companion, I’m happy to follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so my goal is to give you complete peace of mind through dependable care, regular updates, and lots of photos. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I’m a full-time PA student in Farragut and attend class Monday through Thursday from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM. I do have a lunch break, so if you’re nearby, I’m happy to stop by for a midday potty break or walk. My evenings and weekends are very flexible since I typically study from home, making me available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and plenty of quality time with your pet! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, and provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and updates while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and cared for, while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in reliable, compassionate hands.
About: I’ve always been a fan of animals since a very young age and they tend to like me a lot so I’m hoping that you would give me a chance. I can make time for the animals before or after work, and I will be sure to spend time with them and enrich their lives. I will make sure that your pet feels like a part of the family, and if I am in your home, I will make sure that I treat it with respect.
“Kelley was great. Truly great. All of our dogs were happy and well cared for. Kelley provided good updates and pictures throughout her engagement and left the house cleaner then when she arrived. Looking forward to working with her again.”
“Dana is AMAZING. She took care of our two cats for a week and they were treated like royalty. Dana went above and beyond to send photos and video, clean their litter, and even took out the trash and left flowers at the end of care.”
“Telecia was a lifesaver for us! She took care of my in-law's dog who can't be alone and also checked in on some of our other pets while we were on vacation. She is so sweet and easygoing and was just an absolute pleasure to meet. If you need someone to watch your pets, don't hesitate to book Telecia!”
“We hired Angela for a four-day weekend to care for our two dogs, one of whom is older, while the other is three years old. We were absolutely delighted with her services. Angela stayed at our house, walked our dogs, and maintained everything perfectly. Upon our return, we found our home in immaculate condition. Thank you so much, Angela! We would definitely use her again in the future.”
“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.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Maryville
Thomas was absolutely phenomenal! From the very beginning, he went above and beyond by making a couple of visits before our trip to learn our dogs' routines, medications, and schedules. That gave us tremendous peace of mind before we even left. While we were away, he took wonderful care of Todd and Louis and kept us updated with plenty of texts and photos. Seeing how happy and well cared for they were made it so much easier to relax and enjoy our trip. He also took excellent care of our home, even remembering to take the trash to the curb after I completely forgot. It was speaks to the level of care and attention he gives. Because Louis is elderly and Todd has had some recent health issues, we're especially careful about who cares for them. Thomas exceeded every expectation. Thomas exceeded every expectation and earned our complete trust. I wouldn't hesitate to have him stay with Todd and Louis again, and I recommend him without reservation.
Amy went above and beyond at every turn! She came out for two meet-and-greets and hung around for a while to really get to know them. Our cat and dog are usually very shy around people and take a long time to get comfortable, but Amy put in a ton of effort to win them over and they adored her. We got back from our trip, and they clearly miss her a lot! She also took care of our two tortoises and asked a ton of questions and learned about all their quirks and care needs. She paid incredible attention to them and she did way more than meet their needs. Amy stayed at our house for 3 nights and left the place cleaner than it was when I left. We are beyond grateful to have had her as our house and pet sitter these last few days.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Maryville is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $53 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Maryville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Maryville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Maryville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
