“Taylor did an amazing job watching all our animals! I got a lot of updates and when we came back, our animals were happy and the house was immaculate! We will definitely be using him again to house sit for us!”
“Michael was amazing. Handled my puppy like a pro. Definitely recommend him for your pet needs! 10/10 will be using him as my main rover moving forward.”
“We have 3 senior dogs that do best staying in the environment and routine they are familiar with so an in-home sitter is a must. Jayne had stellar reviews and is also newer to Knoxville just like my husband and I. We knew instantly during the meet and greet that Jayne would be a great match for us and our pups. When our trip came closer, Jayne proactively reached out to nail down details. She sent updates when she arrived to the house as well as daily photos. We were over 2,500 miles away in Portland and were able to enjoy our trip because we knew our pups were in Jayne’s care! We look forward to using her again!”
“Kacy was amazing . We met her through the Rover app to pet sit our large fur family while went to a dinner show in Pigeon Forge, TN. Did I mention this was a campsite!! She loved on my babies like they were her own. She was attentive, communicative, and punctual. She does a Meet & Greet also which was impressive. The next time we are in Pigeon Forge, TN we would definitely book Kacy through Rover.”
“Lauren is a pro! She was very communicative with pics throughout our week away and took very good care of my dogs ¨̮”
“Maison B. was a great house sitter for our 4-month old puppy. It is easy to see that Maison is an animal lover, and we felt very comfortable leaving Millie with her. Maison will be the first person we reach out to for our next house-sitting need. I would highly recommend her.”
“We are so happy that Kelli watched our dogs while we were out of town. She sent tons of photos, didn’t panic and stayed patient when one of our dogs refused to eat, and remained in contact the whole time. I am always nervous that sitters will swing by just to let the dogs out and feed them, but Kelli went above and beyond to spend time with them. I would absolutely depend on Kelli again!”
“Melissa is fantastic! She exceeded our expectations while caring for our two cats and dog. Her communication was top-notch—she sent updates and pictures regularly. She was very thorough at the meet-and-greet, which really paid off. All our animals were happy , and the house looked great when we returned from our trip. I will definitely book her again!”

About: I’m an honorably discharged USAF Veteran who has been around pets my whole life. 🇺🇸🪖🐈🐕🐇🐁🦔🐖🫏🐄🐎🪴🌵🪻🌹🌷🌸 I’ve owned a wide range of animals throughout my life including : dogs of all sizes, cats, hamsters, Guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens, young deer, turkeys, spiders, tarantulas, snakes, song birds, parrots, iguanas, lizards, fish, tropical fish, aquatic plants, tropical plants, and of course normal house plants. If you want, I’ll take pictures of your pet throughout the time I’m watching your pet and send them to you free of charge. I know everyone loves they’re pet and wants to keep tabs on how they’re doing while away. So I consider this part of the job that helps give some peace of mind to the owner(s). I’ll get back to you quickly after you reach out to me so you can have the peace of mind knowing your pet will be taken care of. If there are any special needs that need to be addressed please let me know in the initial meeting. I’ve administered shots, given medicine, and taken care of very young and very old animals throughout my life. Thank you so much for considering me! Taking care of those that are important to you fits into my daily routine well. I’m attending online school for an associates degree, so I’ll have ample free time to make sure your critter is taken care of. Apartment dweller here, so if possible, I’d prefer to watch your pet(s) at their respective home. That said, I would be willing to watch your critter at my place if absolutely necessary for a short amount of time. Please reach out to me so we can discuss this. I have a pit bull who’s about 2 and a rhodesian ridgeback under a year old. If you’d like me to set up play dates with either of my dogs and yours, I could make that happen.
“Haley was very accommodating and so good to my babies. She was sure to send pictures and make sure they had the best care possible. I appreciated her and will book her again ?”
About: I’ve taken care of pets all my life, all who I’ve had since being a puppy to when they cross the rainbow bridge. Comfortable with all life stages. I’m available for sitting on weekends starting at 5 on Friday. Also many times I am available during the week for a pop in or walk! I can promise your pups are in good hands. I’m prompt and know how to be professional (that doesn’t mean I don’t love to play)!
“Mary-Claire went above and beyond for my dog! She kept me updated and sent lots of pics. It was my first time using Rover and she made me feel a lot more comfortable with the whole thing. My dog has a lot of anxiety and Mary-Clare made her feel so comfortable. 100% recommend!”
“Allison was great! Excellent communicator, and took such good care of our pup. We’ll definitely recommend her to our neighbors!”

Taylor is also very mindful, she took the time to understand all of Rosie's routines, needs and quirks and made us feel so comfortable and confident leaving our girl with her for the long weekend. She was very responsive, checked in each day and sent us some really great photos and videos of Rosie enjoying their time together! We cannot say enough good things about Taylor, highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs!”
About: Hi! My name is Randi! I’ve taken care of dogs for 15 years or more whether it be for family, friends or neighbors! They trust me. I’m honest. And I’ll love and take care of your pets like they were my family. I am also insured! I love taking care of all kinds of animals! I have had all kinds of pets from dogs, cats, lizards and fish! I can take care of all your pets needs and wants. I’ll give them so much love and attention! I will make sure they have fresh food and fresh water daily; I’ll play with them and walk the dogs often. Clean litter boxes and work on commands.
“Stress free pet and house sitting! Our pups were happy and healthy when we got home and the house was spotless. She sent me updates and photos while we were gone. Lindsey is very communicative and super friendly and great with our dogs. Thanks!”
About: Hi! I’m Hope, a lifelong cat lover and all-around animal person. I was lucky to spend 17 full years with my beloved cat Fritz, from his days as a kitten all the way through his senior years. Losing him last year has been hard, and I’ve found myself really missing the companionship, routines, and joy that come with being around animals. I’m not able to have pets of my own right now, so I’d love to care for yours like family! While cats are my specialty, I also grew up with dogs and have lived with them for many years. My cat Fritz once spent an entire year refusing to drink out of anything other than on old timey milk jug, so you can trust that I’m open to your pets’ unique routines and needs! Your pet deserves someone who truly enjoys their company, and I’d be honored to keep them happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I currently work remotely during normal business hours, and can work from anywhere with a secure WiFi connection. This schedule allows me to be very flexible in terms of visiting with, caring for, or even staying with your beloved pets while you’re away! I know all too well that every pet has their own particular routines and needs; I’ll be sure to respect their quirks and follow your instructions to the letter. I’ll also keep you in the loop with photos and updates so you never have to wonder how things are going!

20. Hope B.
“Hope was in town and watched my cat Rumbles for three weeks in 2023 when I went on vacation to Death Valley. Rumbles is ordinarily rather shy and is certainly choosy about who she chooses to let into her life. I have other folks come to my place, such as visitors or repairpeople, etc., and she always disappears underneath something only to emerge hours later. However, when Hope arrived, she nearly immediately presented herself, magnetized to Hope's presence. Throughout my trip, when I was in service at least, she showered me with photos of Rumbles enjoying her presence: https://imgur.com/a/NZqrgxc https://imgur.com/a/uf2OMCN I returned to find Rumbles happy, healthy, and well-taken-care-of. I recommend Hope without reservations for pet watching on Rover.”
