About: I’ve never gone a day in my life without a dog, and they’ve always been family — never just animals in the house. That same love and respect is what I bring to every pet I care for. With two years of experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m comfortable walking, feeding, playing, and giving oral or topical medications. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality so they feel safe, understood, and truly cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep routines consistent. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions to ensure safety at all times. I take time to make pets feel comfortable and calm in their own environment, keeping things clean and organized before I leave. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

“Hannah was amazing! We had to leave our 3 dogs for 4 1/2 days to go on job interviews out of state and she took such amazing care of them. With 3 dogs and one of them being 14 with a knee injury we couldn’t find a place to board them and were highly anxious about leaving them. Our dogs are our babies and she treated them so wonderfully. They were happy, healthy, and well loved during our absence! The check in photos and report cards on each visit were so appreciated. If we’re able to stay in the area we’d definitely book her again for any pup-related needs! Thank you Hannah!”

“Summer has been amazing and the perfect extra help I needed with not one but two new puppies and another dog in the house. She loves on them and takes care of them like they are her own. She clearly has a love of animals and it shows in the care and attention she gives my babies. She is everything I could ask for in an animal caregiver. Do not hesitate to utilize her services. You will NOT be sorry.”

About: — About Me Since 2018 I have done in-home pet sitting professionally, have had pets all my life, and I have loved animals of every kind for as long as I can remember. And I treat your pets the same way I would my six: with quality time, affection, and plenty of patience. The difference with a sitter like me is that I’m up for the challenge. I’m not just here for the “easy” ones — I believe every pet deserves a chance. (Ask how many times I’ve been bit or scratched! 🤣) I’ve researched training and positive reinforcement techniques, and I use that to provide the most gentle care to my pets and yours. Just like a child, their safety will always be first priority. — Your Time Away The sudden change in routine, environment, and distance can cause anxiety, stress, and temporary behavioral changes and this can even affect behavior once you return. After being gone for so long, sometimes even with a pet sitter, anxious or high-energy pets can become unusually restless, clingy, bark or meow excessively, act out, or even withdraw. This is usually temporary, but a real possibility. Because of this, daily drop-ins are something to consider if you haven’t already. Whether you’re gone for the day or just away at work, the companionship and structure is a game changer for misbehavior. — What I Offer They thrive on consistency, connection, and gentle correction so my goal is to maintain the routine and training/boundaries you’ve set in place while providing affection and entertainment. I’ll even stay with them when they’re ill, and I have experience with special needs and administering medications/injections. At work for 12 hours? Book a walk for that rowdy pup. Gone for a bit? That calls for a drop-in visit. Out of town for the day? Doggy daycare has your back. Vacationing for the week? House sitting will handle that. And who doesn’t love to come back to a tidy home? Ask me about a one-time clean so that you return feeling refreshed, relaxed, and ready to resume life. — Next Steps Just reach out! Don’t be shy with any questions or concerns. After, we’ll schedule a complimentary (within 25 miles) in-person meet-and-greet to touch base on needs, routine, training, and house rules. This is the perfect time to request a quote for cleaning and daily photos/updates. Thank you for reading and for considering me when you aren’t home. Meet ya later! 🐾😊 I’m currently in school full time and from Monday-Friday and I can be with your pet until 7:45am, for 30 minutes around 12pm, and after 5pm into nighttime. I truly view our pets as children, and I am a protector of both. In your home I live by the motto, “leave it better than you found it”.

I am so grateful to Hannah for taking care of my cat while I was away on vacation. She was quick to respond, and I felt confident that my pet was getting the best quality of attention and care. She took time to tidy up after my pet and went above and beyond to ensure my pet had outside time, playtime, and plenty of attention.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - New Tazewell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in New Tazewell is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $29 per visit. 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.

As of October 2026, there are 179 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across New Tazewell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Tazewell. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
