About: I have had animals since I was born, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and hamsters, and loved every single one! I have experience watching neighbors and friends' pets since middle school and I am a college student now. I did a clinical internship at a vet and I am well versed in animal care. Whether that means walking, bathing, medicine administration, grooming, or just cuddles, I'm your girl! :) I have a part time serving job this summer and will be back to being a full time student in the fall. My part time job is very flexible and allows me ample time to check up/watch your pet. I will update my schedule every 2 weeks. I have cared for lots of animals and am able to crate your animal or put them away safely as needed. I also have lots of animal equipment (leashes, crates) on hand if there is any need to transport your pet.
About: I have lived with dogs my entire life! And I now have had lots of experience watching other people’s dogs as well! I can’t wait to take care of your pup! I have availability throughout the whole week currently. But that is subject to change. I like to spend my off days outside going for walks and enjoying the weather when it’s nice. I like to listen to the clients instructions because every household and every dog is different and has different needs so making sure I follow their rules is the most important thing.

About: I have had dogs all my life since age 5. Animals are my favorite things on this earth! I have 2 senior dogs and a cat who I care deeply for and will provide the upmost love and care to your fur babies also! I work part time and make my own schedule. Sometimes I even take my dog to work- I am a licensed therapist and know the beauty of animal support. I have a fenced yard with 2 senior dogs, a lab mix female and black male pug. I also have a 2 year old female cat that mostly stays in my daughter’s room.
About: Hi everyone, my name is Cameron! I am very familiar with taking care of dogs. My family pups are 11 years old, and I have been learning to care for them since I was 10! Now that they are older, they struggle with both anxiety and physical pain. Because of this, I am comfortable with older dogs, anxious dogs, and giving medication to dogs. I now have a dog of my own who is a 9 month old golden doodle☺️ I am very confident in the puppy stage as I am currently in the thick of it! Being a doodle, my dog is very high energy so that is also something I am comfortable with. As a dog mom myself, there are so few people I would trust for my baby. I want to be a sitter dog parents can trust with their babies! I am currently a student at the university of Tennessee and have a part time job! My schedule varies depending on my work hours, but I am never scheduled for more than 8 hours so I’m very flexible. I care for each dog differently based on the requests of their owner. Every dog has a different routine and different quirks, and the best way to care for them is to ask their direct caretakers!
“Madison is a wonderful pet sitter. She communicates often and sends plenty of pics. She cares for the fur babies and I can tell that they love spending time with her. Perfect 10 of 10! Thank you Madison”

About: I grew up on a farm with cows, chickens, and lots of barn cats and dogs! I’ve been a big animal person my whole life which inspired me to go into veterinary medicine in my adult life. I have been in vet med for almost 4 years now, however I am currently not working in it because i’m looking to explore other jobs for myself at the moment. I still would love to have animals in my life while I explore my options and I think Rover is the perfect place for me to do that! Lots of care experience since I have watched some patients for 24+ hours. I can also administer any kind of medication that your fur baby needs while you’re away! I’m currently not working full shifts so I have a ton of availability. I’m hoping for Rover to be a summer gig for me for a while and I can be there when and wherever you need me! I’m currently living with my Mother who has 2 dogs and 2 cats and my own loving cat as well in the household. She is not home super often so I definitely tend to the animals and of course my own sweet girl! I could sit outside all day so potty breaks and walks are a breeze and me and your kiddos can stay outside as long as they want. I’m happy to clean out litter boxes and crates as well.
About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my entire life and caring for dogs has always been second nature to me. I grew up in a family full of pets and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I’ve been helping care for animals since I was a child, so I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone calm and dependable around, I’m happy to match their routine and needs. I treat every pet like family and always make sure owners feel updated and reassured with communication and photos throughout their stay or visit. My goal is to give your pet a stress-free, loving environment where they feel right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because animals have always been a big part of my life. I work Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM–4:30 PM, which makes me available for evening visits, walks, drop-ins, overnight care, and weekends. I’m used to planning my schedule around pets’ needs and making sure they get plenty of attention, care, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and able to stay in their normal routine. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, walks, feeding on schedule, and lots of love while their owners are away. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured their pets are doing well. If absolutely needed, I may also be able to care for pets in my home. I have plenty of space, a safe neighborhood for walks, and a fenced backyard for dogs to enjoy supervised outdoor time. However, in-home care at the owner’s house is generally my preferred option so pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment.
“Misty has been to our house twice and is doing a great job. She communicates well and quickly. She seems to really try to connect with each pet- we have two dogs. She does well with our special needs dog who wears a cone.”

I’m also a special needs parent, so patience, compassion, and attentiveness are second nature to me. Pet sitting helps me support my daughter’s therapies and additional needs, which makes this work especially meaningful to me. It takes a village, and I can’t wait to be a part of yours 🐾🩶 I’m able to come walk your pets or check in on them before work then play with them after work (5:30p-9p) throughout the week. And Saturday and Sundays I’m fully available/flexible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of supervision, patience, playtime, and cuddles. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any routines that help your pet feel secure and at home.

About: I’ve had animals ever since I was a little kid. I would dog sit my neighbors animals when they would go on vacations for full weeks or weekends. I would sometimes stay at their houses overnight or go by a few times a day. It would just depend on what was requested. I work from eight to five Monday through Friday and I have all weekends off!! My schedule is pretty free and flexible throughout the weekend. I live in an apartment complex but I do have a dog park there! I also live right down from Concord park in Farragut where I can go and play and walk them.
