About: Too cold for a good walk? I have been a dog owner since my sophomore year of college! I love dogs and I will take time to recognize your dogs needs and give them my undivided attention. I love long walks, and I would love to have your dog join me! I am currently in school full time, but most of my classes are online! I have lots of free time during the day :) However, right now it’s winter break and I’m free all the time! My dog at home uses a harness and is crated, so i am completely comfortable using complex harnesses that your dog feels best in! I am also a pro fetch player

“The best I’ve had, responsive, trustworthy, & reliable. Someone who actually spends the entire time with your dog, unlike other Rovers I’ve had in the past. 10/10!”

“Was lucky to find Zo when I first moved to town and a few years later, I wouldn't want anyone else taking care of my fur baby. Completely reliable and trustworthy. Worthy of all the praise.”

About: I love all animals, especially meeting new dogs! I am willing to travel around the Knoxville area as needed by the job. I'm very flexible and I love long walks at any speed your dog feels comfortable going at. I like exploring areas and love parks, especially finding new areas around the city. I am very patient with all ages of dogs and would love to get to know the personality and habits better. I prefer weekends or evenings for all visits due to my regular work schedule. Please feel free to contact me with any questions! I prefer mornings or weekend, but have some flexibility if needed and I am willing to work with you and your pet to make sure your pets gets all the attention it needs! I have a four year old cat who lives with me and therefore cannot have your pets over. I am willing to spend as much time as needed in your neighborhood ensuring your pet gets proper exercise.

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for pets of all breeds, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. Beyond dogs, I’ve cared for cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles, fish, frogs, chickens, and even raised butterflies from eggs. This variety has given me a deep appreciation for the unique needs of each animal, and I tailor every visit to their comfort, routine, and personality. My goal is to provide the kind of care that lets you travel or work with total peace of mind. I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends for drop-ins, walks, and extended care, with overnight house-sitting available year-round, including busy holidays. Because I know your pups deserve love while you're away at work, I may be available for morning/lunchtime visits within Knoxville. My flexible weekend availability allows me to spend focused, unrushed time with your pets while maintaining their normal routines. I make safety, comfort, and cleanliness my top priorities. In your home, I follow instructions exactly, keep things tidy, and send regular updates—so you always know your pets are safe, happy, and cared for.

About: I have 15 years of experience with caring for dogs, cats, and amphibians! I’m not much of a human person, but I will make an undeniable connection with your pet. I make sure your pet is comfortable with me before doing anything else. I have experience with oral medications for your pet and other accommodations they may have. Pet care always comes first for me. I will wake up from sleep at any given moment if it means your pet needs to go outside, be fed, or just a simple pat on the head. I want nothing but comfortability and care for your pet. I strive to make space and comfort for your pet. I love a good game of tug o’ war, or whatever your pet has in store for that day. My favorite thing to do to connect with your pet is a good walk. It builds trust and connection. I would love to share a bed with your pet as well if that’s what they prefer! (I will also crate them depending on how you see fit.)

“Brooke has been amazing with taking my dog on walks to make sure he gets exercise while I have to be gone. She is also quick to respond and very professional! Highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up with animals never having less than 5 at a time and am often taking care of my 4 cats and 3 dogs for family members. I worked at a high end resort called blackberry farms as a year round camp counselor for 2 years for kids and would dog and cat sit for families as part of that job. I’m currently going to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga so I have some days that are more flexible than others and have many breaks between classes. I am free Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays I cannot care for any pets at my personal home but can work in any environment with your animal babies! I am happy to work however.

About: Ever need a pet-sitter or dog walker? I have my own personal zoo, from parrots, chickens, kitties, and even a Great Dane, learning how to care for all types of animals. Also, I have spent many weekends volunteering at my veterinarian's clinic, learning how to properly tend to animals and keep them healthy. Being a huge animal lover and my ease at connecting with animals, I can assure you that your beloved pet will be in great hands! I am a going to be a freshman in college in August so I have all summer to petsit with not much else getting in the way of my time. Let me know your pet's everyday routine and I'll make sure to stick with it and keep your furry friend happy! Whether it be walks or just play time outside, I'll make sure your pet gets the time and attention it deserves.

About: I have 5 years of dog training experience and took classes to recognize behavior and use a multitude of training tools. I also am comfortable working with senior or special needs animals, and have lots of experience administering anything from medication in pill form to subcutaneous fluids. I am currently unemployed, so your animal companion will have complete round the clock care, playtime and supervision. Most of my time consists of doing something with animals Potty breaks generally take place after meals or snack time, or upon request since my dogs often ask for outside time. Walks are usually 15 to 30 minutes, sometimes longer if everyone is having fun. Hazards are kept far out of the way or the area is supervised.

About: Had a pet I cared for solely since I was 18 years old. Walking them regularly, taking road trips with them, keep up with routine vet appointments Will be temporarily laid off for a few months during a construction project and looking for something to occupy some time and make a little extra money. My pit/lab mix is a big baby and gets treated like one too. He’s around 8. Free roams the house while I’m at work and really well behaved.
