“Anna was amazing! I got consistent updates from her and she was super flexible when there were problems with my apartment, taking my dog to her house so that she would be provided for! Cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life—dogs, cats, chickens, even baby cows—raising them with love, responsibility, patience, compassion, kindness and experience from a young age. I do work during the week at Blaine Vet. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday. I will go home to check on the fur babies during lunch. I have pets of my own, but they will be kept separate from yours unless they are well-acquainted and get along comfortably. My home features a fully fenced backyard where your pet can safely play and take bathroom breaks. I welcome pets on the furniture, so your furry companion is free to relax and feel at home. I treat every pet in my care with the same love and attention as my own. Additionally, I live in a walkable community, perfect for giving your pet regular walks and outdoor time.
“Brooke was amazing and we will definitely be using her again. My cats can be picky about who they engage with and after a couple of days, my girls were comfortable being around Brooke. Brooke keep us updated and I wanna say left our home better than we left it. 100% use Brooke for all your pet sitter needs.”
“Allison was amazing! She stopped by to check in on my cat, Nuts, while I was out of town and did a great job. She was very communicative, sending me plenty of updates and photos so I knew Nuts was happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with her again the next time I’m away.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Summer did an excellent job caring for my cat, Bryce. She was punctual, followed all instructions perfectly, and sent thoughtful updates with photos after each visit. I could tell Bryce felt comfortable and well cared for, and my place was left neat and tidy. Her communication was quick and friendly throughout. I’d happily book Summer again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter”
“If I could give Jasmin 10 stars, I would, but Rover only allows five! She took the time to do a meet and greet with me and my 8-week old puppy. Jasmin is ALWAYS on time which is important to me because we are potty training. She provides recaps with photos and a note. She also came to my rescue on very short notice. I will use Jasmin’s services for as long as I can. ☺️”
“Elana was our first experience using Rover and won’t be our last. She was incredibly responsive and took excellent care of our 10mo Great Dane. She sent us daily updates and spent some extra time giving our boy some love. I highly recommend her and will be sure to seek her out next time we go away, our pup was super happy when we came home and you could tell he wasn’t stressed a bit. Huge relief for us because this was the first time we left him. Thanks Elana!!!!”
“I was hesitant on letting a complete stranger in my home but as soon as I met Felicia, my concern was gone as she was super sweet and extremely personable. I can’t say enough how appreciative I am to Felicia for her willingness to accept my last minute request over the 4th of July holiday weekend. She was absolutely amazing and will 100% be using Felicia again!”
About: I’ve been a life-long pet owner, caring for dogs, horses, cats, and even chickens! I have experience working with all kinds of dogs, from nervous rescues to seniors who need a bit more attention. I work part time at a dog grooming salon. I try to pick up jobs between part time hours or collage classes during the school year. I’m only strictly unavailable between 10 pm and 6 am. I am more than happy to adhere to any accommodations or requests from my clients for any service! I highly value respecting the client’s pet and property.
“Jessi is absolutely wonderful and took incredible care of our pack while we were away! We could tell from regular updates with adorable photos they were being well cared for and loved. It was such a relief knowing our fur babies were in such capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, Jessi is the best, and we’ll definitely be booking them again. Highly recommend!”
“Skylar has such a get energy and it’s obvious that she loves animals! She did a great job with my dog Beau and even gave him some extra cuddle time which I know he loved! Thank you Skylar!”
“Avonlea was a wonderful choice for a check in visit! She had great communication and generally felt very trustworthy. I’d definitely use her again & will recommend her to my friends!”
“Amazing! She was super helpful with our puppies. They both have separation anxiety so we have to give them meds while we are gone and she was happy to do it. Definitely booking her again”
“Raven has been absolutely fabulous! She looked after our kitty Sasha while we were gone and kept us updated. She’s a great communicator and lovely woman! Highly recommend and would 100% hire again.”
“Cayli was quick and easy to communicate with and flexible with our dogs schedules. During her visit she was very attentive and noticed an empty chewed pill bottle on the floor. Long story short, I don’t recommend my dog who’s getting his stomach pumped but I highly recommend Cayli. Her quick thinking means I still have a dog.”
About: Engaging your pets and creating a bond is important to me. I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I can remember. Taking responsibility and providing the utmost care, I will deeply respect both you and your pets! I am a local college student who will be starting school again soon. I’m also a dancer who is busy with working with a big television show soon. While I’m busy, you will be my first work priority! I will do everything to ensure your furry (or furless) family members safety and care. I’ve had experience with anxious pets and extroverted pets. From Great Danes to chihuahuas, I have had success with caring for multiple ages and sizes. Whatever your pet needs, I’m happy to adapt to their routine.
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)!

“Ella is an exceptional dog walker who brings a wealth of experience and a genuine love for animals to her services. With 5 months of walking dogs on the Wag app, she has developed a keen understanding of canine behavior and care. Her part-time job at a dog groomer further enhances her knowledge, making her an even more capable caregiver. As a full-time student at the University of Tennessee, Ella demonstrates remarkable time management skills, ensuring she is always reliable and punctual. Her dedication to her own horse is a testament to her commitment to animal welfare. In my experience, Ella has been outstanding—always on time, communicative, and attentive to our dog's needs. Our pet adores her, and I trust her completely. I highly recommend Ella to anyone seeking a top-notch dog walker on Rover.”
