“Highly recommend Kos to care for your dog. For our dog to be away from us is a big deal and I don't worry about his state of care whatsoever.”

“Mary was a wonderful caregiver for our dog! It was our first time using Rover and things couldn't have been better. Mary sent updates during the day, kept our pup entertained with walks, and gave him lots of TLC. We'd love to have Mary watch him again when we're in the Knoxville area.”

About: Collectively we have taken care of pets for years from rescue dogs to bunnies. Taking care of other peoples pets looks difficult, but with love and patience we can make it a fun day for them and us. I work from home full time so I’ll be able to take care of your fur baby. And they’ll be able to take as much potty breaks as needed. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for playtime and potty breaks. I also have a friendly dog of my own to keep them company.

“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.”

I have a big fenced in backyard and can do most of my work from the screeened in porch. That’s nice because it lets me keep an eye on the pooch while also feeling less like a cave hermit hunched over a keyboard all day.

About: I grew up on a farm, so animals have always been part of my world—feeding chickens before breakfast, brushing horses after school, and getting covered in dog hair in between! I’ve looked after everything from bouncy puppies to mellow senior dogs, and I’ve always had an easy, natural connection with animals. They seem to sense that I’m one of the good ones. I’m great at picking up on their vibes—whether they’re in the mood to zoom around or just want some chill cuddle time. Taking care of animals is second nature to me, and honestly, it’s one of my favorite things to do. I live a flexible lifestyle and am fully available to care for your pets.

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’ve been pet sitting for friends and family since I was a teenager. Dogs, cats, geckos, I love them all! I have a blue heeler so I’m great even with the stubborn ones. During the summer I’m free to anyone that will let me watch their sweet babies. I’m also available on holidays! I am here to help! I am the one all the animals follow in my house. I have one male blue heeler who is the love of my life. We live close to Victor Ashe and frequently walk there. When boarding, I can take them to the park for walks or even the dog park!

About: I have had my own pets, mostly dogs and cats, my whole life. I have pet sat with family for over 6 years and have pet sat by myself for the past 3. I love petsitting, housesitting, and dog walking because it brings me joy and gives the owner an opportunity to leave the house for whatever they need. I am a college student, but all of my classes are online. I am free all day friday-monday. I work three 12-hour shifts tuesday-thursday, so I am pretty unavailable those days. My roommate can take care of my babies if I am away taking care of yours! I care for pets in the pet owner's house in order to provide a familiar and comfortable environment for them! Depending on what the owner prefers, I am available to stay the night at the house I am watching or just visit throughout the day. I make sure there is plenty of breaks in my day to come back and care for the pets or stay all day if I am needed. In my own home the same rules apply!

“Sarah was so easy to communicate with and took care of our Stella during the day. Even when we were running late, she was able to help us out which was completely our bad. She was great and would recommend!”
