House Sitting in Oak Ridge

“Good communication and appropriate check ins. Handled being accidentally locked out very well when the battery to my keypad lock died. Would book again.”

“Our girls are always happy when we return, which is all we can ask for! Thank you Jolee for treating our girls like your own and for watching them with such short notice!”

“Theo was great! He came to meet us before hand and kept me updated on how things were going. My house was just as I left it and my dog was happy!”

“Mark is just excellent! Our furbabies loved him right away.”

“Brittany was great with our boys and very easy to work with, from the initial meet and greet through the 6 nights we were gone. Our dogs are pretty big (80 and 95lbs) and they both have some quirky habits, but Brittany handled them with ease. She sent pictures and updates daily, which really settled any worries we had about having a new person at the house. We came home to very happy dogs, and we look forward to using her services again. Highly recommend!”

“Julie was great with Nooka. We would love to book her again in the future.”

“Rowan has been the best dog and cat sitter we’ve had since using this app—10/10, highly recommend. They’re great with animals, always send photos and updates, and are incredibly reliable and attentive.”

About: I have experience administering all kinds of medication to all ages of dogs. I love meeting your older dogs and have experience helping them navigate stairs and the home if necessary. I am patient and if your dog needs extra accommodation I am happy to provide assistance. I am currently a college student on break for the summer so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am available for early mornings, late nights, and everything in between. I understand it can be nerve racking trusting someone with your pet, but I am extremely communicative and will keep you updated as frequently as you wish. I have pet sat for multiple families who have always returned to tidy homes and happy pets. As someone who has had the privilege of loving many animals, big and small (snakes, lizards, geckos, cat, hamsters), I understand the importance of your pet.

“Awesome house sitter, she felt comfortable taking my dogs back to her place and took very good care of them and they seem to doing great when I got home from my weekend trip! Thank you so much!”

About: I've grown up always having pets in the home. We've always had at least one dog in the house, along with a handful of other types of pets (cats, rats, guinea pigs, even a chinchilla) throughout the years. This has solidified my love for animals of all kinds, and makes me eager to care for and love your pets as if they are my own, if you choose to give me the opportunity to do so :) I am a teacher trying to keep myself busy for the summer! My schedule is wide open so feel free to message me with any requests! I care for pets in their own home by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, and any medications they may need. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I also make sure to keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind! I also have reliable transportation which would allow me to be able to come to your home and care for your pet in their own environment!

About: I’m very easy going. I love to take them for walks, get them a pup cup, parks, etc.. If they have meds or a certain diet that’s not a problem. As well as if they have any other specific needs, I will make sure to meet them. You can expect regular updates and pictures if wanted. I believe every dog should get love and attention so I will make sure not to be a stranger to them! Hope they love their tummy tickled too! Let me know if you have any questions:) I work at OSF St. Francis Medical Center, I am part time from 7am-1pm. I do online schooling therefore I would only be gone during the morning/ afternoon. The rest of the day is fully for the pups! In my clients home they have either a fenced yard or a shock collar to keep them in. One of my clients has specific diets and medication for both of their dogs and prefers if they are walked daily as well! (no extra charge for walking ofc). They text me the details or they write on a piece of paper and leave notes. I have no problem following directions, it is better to be more specific though when telling them. And I do send pics and update my clients if asked or necessary!

About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).

“Oliver was awesome with the puppers, as usual. They adore him!”

“Sami did a great job with Duke and Daisy. She made us feel very relaxed by updating us occasionally with texts and pictures. The dogs loved her and we definitely felt comfortable having her in our home. We will definitely book again.”

About: i have 3 dogs of my own that i absolutely adore, and also have 6 cats that are both inside and outside! i never criticize with size and breed, and am incredibly open minded and understanding of pet struggles and weaknesses!! i love animals, and knowing i could get paid to play and take care of them warms my heart. genuinely, no dog or cat is too much and i would love to work with them all the time if i could! i dog sit for my aunt and uncle, but i also have 3 dogs that are crazy and playful so i understand discipline and the need for love.

“CLAIRE was a 100/10!! Her care of our dog was absolutely amazing! He usually is very nervous and gets upset when we are away and he was so comfortable with her the entire time we were gone. It made our vacation 1000 times more relaxing. We can’t thank her enough!”

About: I’ve had a golden retriever named Molly since I was in 3rd grade. I’ve always loved spending time with her. When I was little I was to young to work at my local animal shelter, so instead I would do chores around the house to earn money to buy myself fabric. I would use this fabric to make blankets to donate to the shelter because I wanted to help in any way to make those animals feel loved. I also would take my neighbors dogs for walks and many of the people who I dog walked for would rely on me to come over and take care of them while they were away! I currently work part time, so I can walk dogs anytime after 2pm! On weekends I am completely free to walk dogs at any time! I care for my dog Molly by taking her out to the dog park every weekend and we even go on hikes! I take her to PetSmart every now and then to treat her to a brand new toy :)

About: Im new to Rover but I have been housesitting and taking care of peoples pets for a long time. I had a dog for 18 years.I had a dog for 18 years so I’m very comfortable with everything from energetic pups to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m also active and love getting outside, so if your dog enjoys walks, hikes, or playtime, I’m a great match. I work from home, which means I’m able to be around a lot and give pets consistent attention throughout the day. Im available for longer house sits as well. I only take care of dogs in the owners home and Im happy to follow your guidelines on how to best take care of your pet.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since i was very young and always adored and loved them. I’ll love and adore yours also and give them only the best care. 😊 I work part time at our district in Roanoke-Benson as a paraprofessional and just finished my 15th year. I love pet-sitting and have done so for my friends and coworkers. I’m reliable and very responsible and love being with small/med dogs and/or cats. I’m also trustworthy and independent and will gladly meet your dear pets needs. I generally care for your pets in your home. It’s much more comfortable and familiar for them and it’s where all their things are very handy.
