About: I have been a dog owner my entire life, and currently own 2 of them. I’ve always shown a love for animals! I have spent my entire life with dogs and have taken care of others for family friends and neighbors while they were away. I have also spent a significant amount of time caring for dogs through Rover. As for cats, I have never personally owned any but again have spent a lot of time with them through Rover and love to take care of them! I work 8:30-4:30 as a medical assistant at an ENT Monday through Friday. Other than that, I should be available to take care of your pets! If it’s for drop-in visits, I can make time during my lunch break to let your dog out! In my apartment I will be sure to refill food and water at required times and can go for walks as needed. As for at your home, it is important to know that I am a very calm, gentle, and responsible person and will make sure things go smoothly at your home with whatever requests you have for the visits.
“Jill was awesome! We found her on the app, had her booked and dropped off the next morning for a long day. She is very competent with dogs. After meeting her we relaxed and had our day out without worrying. She updated us as much as we wanted and Shelby was happy and tired when we picked her up. I would give her 6 stars if the app allowed.”

About: I’ve had different dogs in my life. I enjoy being with them. I give them baths and treats I do some grooming but mostly baths. I like to take them on walks at seven island bird park. I am currently working full time at a Mother’s Day out. I will have plenty of time to spend with your puppies! I like to meet new friends including furry ones they bring joy and excitement to my life. When I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life as I was growing up I wanted to be a vet. I always have a special place for dogs in my heart. They will be loved and cared for like they are my own. I don’t have a fence in yard I have an underground fence. I have a big yard that they can play in I have 2 furry friends that they can play with.
About: I grew up on a farm in rural Appalachia so I have been surrounded by pets of all different types for as long as I can remember. I learned how to care for them very early on in my childhood and that experience fostered my passionate love for all animals. I believe in caring for them, not just as pets, but members of our families. I am flexible with my routine so I can meet the varying needs of the doggies that stay with us. We can discuss more in depth when you inquire to book. I have a spacious, fenced in back yard that is perfect for zoomies and playtime! My home is open and welcoming. I have lots of space for them to hangout or to relax in their kennel.

Her son was FANTASTIC and they chased each other around the house!! I would I highly recommend Lauryn to anyone!! She took care of our Mysty soo well!! We will use her alway!! 100 OUT OF 10!!”

“It was perfect. We had complete peace of mind that our baby girl was being good taken care of. She answered fast every time I asked how Nana was doing and kept me updated at every moment.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for pets, having looked after many for neighbors and family friends. This has given me the opportunity to build trust while providing loving, attentive care to animals of all kinds. I pride myself on treating every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for in my hands. I work part-time and from home, which allows me the flexibility and availability to provide your pet with the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just companionship, I’m here to make sure they feel loved and cared for throughout the day. Caring for pets, whether it is in my home or your home, involves meeting their basic needs like feeding, long walks, making sure they have fresh water and relaxed.
About: I am a reliable and responsible retired adult who loves dogs. I will care for yours as if they were my own whether it’s in our home or if you need drop in visits or walking. I prefer small dogs under 30 pounds. I am retired and will be there for your pet(s) whether it is to drop by your home, board in our home or just walk your dog(s). I love small dogs as they are our favorite. I prefer to book small dogs under 30 pounds. I have 2 Cavalier King Charles spaniels and a large home with a fenced backyard in a family neighborhood. I will walk your dogs and provide them with necessary potty breaks. My 2 dogs are friendly and get along with other dogs.

About: I love making dogs happy. I have a strong drive and passion for animals. I believe play time is very important. I have always cared highly for animals, especially dogs. I enjoy walking with dogs and letting them have a chance to enjoy the fresh outside air. The best snuggle buddy is a fur buddy !! I treat every pup, big or small, just like I would treat a family member, with love and care. Animals mean the world to me. Some day I wish to open up my own animal shelter to ensure that I can provide as many unfortunate animals as possible, with a loving and nurturing place to call home like they have never had before but they definitely deserve! No animal should go hungry or homeless!!
“Kiki is a phenomenal dog-sitter! She took amazing care of my rescue greyhound (who doesn't like to be left alone) while I caught a show in town. She was so responsive and communicative in the lead-up to the booking, and kept me up to speed with how my pup was doing in my absence. Can't thank you enough, Kiki!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, many different breeds. My life would not be complete without at least one dog in it! I currently have an Aussiedoodle named Macy. She is five and would love to have a playmate or two. I can only take dogs that get along well with other dogs! I have raised puppies, so I know the extra care required. I nurtured my Jack Russel for 16 years and did everything it took to get her to Rainbow Bridge in the most dignified manner. I can give meds and will do whatever your pet needs as far as special care. I work from home part time, so I have plenty of time to pay attention to your fur baby! My home has a large open family room for an indoor play area, and I have an enclosed porch and fenced in back yard. You can expect that your fur baby will be loved like my own, will get frequent potty breaks, and will get walks in the neighborhood or at the local dog park (with your permission). Your pet's safety is my top priority. I will take only one family's dogs (up to two) at a time so that there are no "top dog" issues. My Macy gets along with any dog and will be super excited to share her rather boring day with your fur baby. I will only take dogs that have ZERO issues with other dogs, as Macy must be safe as well!!
“Talk about “above and beyond” - Khasia was amazing to work with - and on very short notice! Goldie was very well taken care of and I would not hesitate to use Khasia again. She was polite, professional, and very kind.”

“We booked last minute & she still took our little Bentley! Was extremely understanding because we were running late. Sent pictures and videos all day letting us know how he was doing. She is amazing & the sweetest! We will definitely be bringing Bentley back to play with the other dogs❤️❤️ He had a great time.”


About: Hi! I’m Anna! I am willing to take care of everything your pet/s may need from exercise, to controlling a situation the best way possible if your pet/s have anxiety or medical issues. I have experience administering oral medications and being extra cautious with my now passed boxer who has had multiple knee surgeries, to insulin shots for my now passed 20 year old diabetic, severely anxious cat. I will pay attention to any special instructions and make sure your pet has a good time! I realize this is a big responsibility and I will make sure you feel safe with me caring for your animal/s.I have experience with bunnies too! I’ll treat your animals the same way I treat mine, thanks for reading. I do work full time in person so I am only able to care for your pet every 8 hrs, unless you’re right by my work place in north Knox! I am respectful of clients homes and leave them in better condition than when I initially enter them. I’ll vacuum or sweep if you’d like, I don’t mind at all. I lock the door each time I leave, even if it’s just for a moment. If your dog/s need a bath it’s no problem.
“Melinda has been amazing with my baby. She treats her like she’s her own and i couldn’t have asked for a better person to entrust with my baby girl. I’d recommend her to anyone that’s looking for a sitter, she’ll make sure your baby is well taken care of! ❤️🐕🦺🐾”
