Christy is the best dog sitter I have ever had. Our dog is very old and needy. She was so sweet with him and sent me pics all weekend of things he was doing. She kept me updated on how he was eating and taking his meds because I was worried he wouldn't do either while we were gone. I’m so thankful I found her and I have already booked another pet sitting appointment with her. Hire her, you wont be disappointed!

Heather was wonderful pet/house sitter for our dog. It was the first time we left him with someone that wasn't family, and he did great. She sent us updates and pictures twice daily. It was nice to see he was being well cared for while we were away. She also took great care of the house and left it possibly cleaner than when we left. I highly recommend Heather!

About: What sets me apart from other Rover sitters is my specialized experience in both puppy training and senior pet care. I am skilled in positive reinforcement techniques, ensuring that young dogs develop good habits early on. Additionally, I provide compassionate, attentive care tailored to senior pets’ unique needs, including administering medications and supporting mobility. My dedication to personalized, loving attention ensures every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I’m currently working part-time remotely , so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups or kitties! Right now I’m available 24/7 because I am saving to having a child! When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I ensure their comfort, safety, and well-being. I maintain feeding schedules, provide fresh water, administer medications if needed, and engage in playtime and exercise. I respect the pets' routines, offer companionship, and keep their environment clean. I communicate regularly with clients, updating them on their pets’ health and behavior, ensuring peace of mind while they're away.

Desirae did a wonderful job taking care of my dogs while I was out of town! The devastating flooding from Hurricane Helene happened less than a mile from my house. They were without power and Internet at times but she kept me informed. I highly recommend Desirae!

About: Hi! I’m currently a DPT student, which means my days can be busy—but spending time with animals is something I genuinely look forward to. I’ve always had a love for pets and understand how important it is to know they’re in good hands. Even with a full academic schedule, I’m organized, responsible, and intentional with my time. When I’m with your pet, they’ll have my full attention—whether that’s getting their energy out on a walk or just relaxing and feeling comfortable at home. Pet care is also a meaningful way for me to help pay for school, so I’m grateful for every opportunity and take that responsibility seriously. Im a current physical therapy student but my summer class schedule is lighter. I don’t have full days of class so I have periods to leave for walking and potty breaks and I’m home most of the day Fri - Sunday now! If they are up for it, I can take them on trips around JC and to the dog park (I love off leash!) I can also be available for any overnight visits, and am usually free for a whole weekend. My apartment is close to downtown so has many walkable areas for your pets. There’s a big field next to my apartment that’s perfect for potty breaks. I can separate the upstairs from the downstairs if they need to be kept away from certain rooms, but they have plenty of room to roam in my apartment! In my clients home I can provide any services as needed such as walking them, playing in the yard, or crating.

Lydia was great with our pups and we won't hesitate to use her services again. She sent daily pictures of our babies and I could tell they were content and happy. She even took one of our pups with her on a car ride to pick up food (he loves car rides and she did have our permission). She sent pics of him and I could tell he was loving it! Lydia was very quick to answer texts and she was easy to communicate with. She left the house in great condition and we already have her booked for May. I highly recommend Lydia and I don't think anyone that hires her will be disappointed with her services.

About: I have cared for pets of all ages over the years and adopted a pup of my own about two years ago. He’s up to date on all vaccinations and loves other dogs. I have experience with giving medications to animals, caring for both puppies and older pups, and my apartment is hardwood floors so accidents aren’t a problem! I am a graduate assistant and in grad school. This means that I word pretty weird hours and I do a lot of work remotely. I’m home anywhere between 8 hours to 24 hours a day and can rearrange my schedule depending on the needs of the animal. There is a dog park nearby and it’s a safe area. For my pup, and pups I’ve boarded/cared for before, I traditionally feed them in the AM and give them plenty of water. We go to the dog park to start the day and get the energy out. I make sure to leave dog-safe toys on the floor so they know they have stuff to play with and I dog proof the apartment before I leave each time so they don’t get into things they shouldn’t. We go out later in the day to the dog park again to socialize or get the zoomies going. We go back and have a little more food or a snack and then hang out before going out on a walk to end the day. I'm working full-time in ministry so I have lots of time throughout the day to care for your loved one and will be gone no more than a few hours per evening for bible studies and groups. I take my dog, Tonka, out 5-6 times per day minimum and we love to go on walks and be outdoors. I have a large field directly behind my apartment and live in a very pet-friendly area tucked off the main road so your pup will enjoy lots of safe and supervised outside time! I allow animals on the furniture and keep all choking hazards up high. My dog has a knack for finding even the smallest things to mess with so I have good practice with keeping a safe home.

When I checked in, she responded quickly and sent photos, which gave me so much peace of mind—especially since this was our first time leaving our puppy. She even took her for a walk, which we really appreciated. We had a great experience and will definitely be booking with Laura again for future pet sitting needs!

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I could drive! My family, friends, and neighbors all trust me with their fur babies! I am currently in school full time for physical therapy at ETSU! I am normally available Mondays after 12:00 Wednesdays between 12-2:30 and after 5:00 Thursdays before 12:00 and after 5:00. I am in town a lot of weekends (when I am not visiting home) and would be available from 12:00 Friday through the whole weekend! I always keep dogs on a leash unless we are in a fenced-in area with other trusted animals. My #1 priority is for the dogs, myself, and everyone around me to be safe and happy!

About: I absolutely love dogs! Since I can’t have one while in college, pet sitting gives me the perfect opportunity to spend time with them. I have experience caring for my family’s dogs and would love to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, and care! I am a student at UK so I try to fit it into my schedule when I can! I dog sit on the side because I love it! I am open to caring for the dog however the owner needs me to! I am willing to take them to a park, give meds, go on walks, etc.

Olivia was fantastic with our babies ensuring that medications were promptly administered to each of our babies. She slept with them each night and made sure they received tons of love and attention while we were on an out of state bowling trip. We would love to hire her all the time to watch our babies, as they loved her too! She sent us pictures without us even having to ask too!

There are quite a few options for sitters in the Johnson City area so my #1 reason for using Campbell was her being agreeable to stay in my home. My dog has quite a few anxiety issues and it’s best if she stays in her own home when we have to go out of town. My dog did not appear frightened of her on the meet and greet. Campbell sent me pics of my dog sitting next to her on the couch and also several texts to let me know she was doing OK. She had no problem giving my dog medication. When I returned home, our house was in immaculate condition. I will use Campbell again the next time I have to go out of town.
