Hannah did a great job with our Millie. We were in Pigeon Forge for vacation & wanted to go to Dollywood. Hannah came to our cabin & let our doggie out so we didn't have to come back to let her out. I wish Hannah lived where we live because I would use her for sure regularly. We will be back to TN & will definitely use Hannah again.

About: My previous experience in pet care includes employment at Holiday Barn Pet Resorts as a pet care associate, volunteering at Richmond Animal League, and pet sitting for a wide variety of animals. Pet sitting for pets around my neighborhood was my first job! Growing up with pets of my own my whole life has also allowed me to become accustomed to caring for animals of all different sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a college student on summer break, I am opening my schedule up through mid-August and plan to fill my days/weeks with pet care services! Help me keep busy :) I am currently offering walks, drop ins, and/or overnight services, and I have experience with caring for pets in others’ homes. As of right now I am unable to provide boarding services.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for animals, I bring both reliability and genuine care to every pet I look after. I currently have two rescue tuxedo cats (one with only one eye and nearly blind) and a well-loved flock of 25 chickens, and I’ve spent the past five years dog sitting for friends and neighbors after many years of owning dogs myself. I’m very comfortable with different personalities and routines. I’m attentive and genuinely enjoy all animals. I will always make your pets feel safe and cared for with walks and plenty of playtime! I just retired after a 22 year career in marketing to watch my first grandchild part time- which gives me extra hours to help you with your pet care! I am as attentive to your fur babies as I am to my own. I genuinely love spending time with all animals and will take great care of yours, too!

About: I have two cats and two dogs myself and have been dog sitting since 14 years old. I love going on walks and love to be able to take a buddy with me! I recently got a puppy who I have been training and could pass on my self taught skills onto your animal if wanted. I love animals which is why I chose to sign up on rover ! I currently am doing online college so do not have a full time or part time job! I am available whenever for whatever your pets needs are! I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pets can feel comfortable and secure. I always prioritize their safety by keeping a close eye on them, following routines exactly as instructed, and making sure they’re in a clean, pet-friendly space at all times. Building trust is really important to me, so I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, needs, and boundaries to make sure they feel at ease. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just relaxing, I create a positive and stress-free environment where your pets are treated like my own.

Dana is seems to be very good with Keira. The dog is always happy in the pictures she sends. I think she does a great job. It was a big plus that she already knew how to use a gentle leader.

About: Growing up my family always had at least one or more pets of various breeds so I have 20+ years of experience around animals. I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, lizards, rabbits, goats, and hedgehogs. Personally, my husband & I have 2 dogs currently, 9 & 10 years old, one having epilepsy & is dependent on medication. I have helped raise/care for/train puppies, kittens, baby rabbits, & baby goats. The only pet I'm not comfortable with is snakes, my little sister has one but I only look at it from 3ft away in its enclosure, haha. I work part time Tu/W/Th 8A - 5P, I do not mind caring for pets those days, however I will be gone all day. Otherwise, I'm available for your pets needs! My personal routine with my pets: My husband helps me care for our pets daily but his schedule is a bit different than mine, so our dogs are let out at least within 4-6 hours those days. Otherwise, we let them out every 2-4 depending on their needs (which they have been trained to lets us know if they need to go sooner). Our medical dog is on a 12 hr medication schedule. I'd prefer to care in my clients home due to one of my dogs having a reactive past, it was quite a transition when we inherited our other dog. If you have a specific routine, I'm ready to follow it to the T! I'm comfortable walking dogs on leash, hanging out/playing with them in a fenced yard, or just chilling inside. As mentioned, I have experience with medically dependent pets. I have an escape artist, so I'm always vigilant of their proximity to me and prepared to run/chase in the event something happens. I can stay at the home with the pets or I can visit throughout the day!

About: I grew up in our farm owning & taking care of all kinds of animals. Fostered cats/dogs with Humane Societies in different states before we finally settled after military life. Growing up on a farm surrounded by animals, I’ve developed strong intuition to sense pets' unique needs; if they are feeling sick, anxious, etc. I can follow with your pet’s medical needs/routine. I’m home all day except for quick errands hence pets under my care get lots of human interactions, cuddles & play time. Frequent potty breaks. I believe in holistic lifestyle hence I use pet friendly; no harsh chemical cleaning supplies. Hygiene is super important to me. Old habits from my hospital volunteering days + I’m a clean freak as per my family 😆 I'm a homemaker. I enjoy taking care of my indoor plants, garden, and our mini goldendoodle Hazel. I'm home majority of the day; hence your fur babies will get to have lots of cuddles, love, and playtime in our big fenced in yard. We have lovely, clean & spacious home; hence pups get to have a lot of space/freedom to roam. Or retrieve if they want some space. No choking hazard toys. I love taking pictures, videos & update with your precious pooch. You can FaceTime your pets if it’s extended stay or as per need. I love making pets stay as comfortable as possible & giving peace of mind to owners. As a pet owner myself, I know how much small things matter! I've a huge fenced in yard, Hazel, our super friendly mini golden doodle would give a company to any dog & make them feel comfortable. Lots of play, cuddles & free to roam. However, I've an ability to gate off the rooms if it's needed, or as per request. I live near the lake & take my dog to daily AM/PM walks. As a pet owner, I know the anxiety of trying to find a safe home to fur babies, someone who'd love/care for them as their own.

About: I have always loved animals since I was a little girl, and I am always looking for ways to spend more time with them in my freetime. I am a college student home for the summer available 7 days a week! I have a job during the day from about 10am 4 pm, but can visit before and after and during the late nights. I spend a lot of time with my dog Reese, and would always respect the homes of my clients and make sure they are comfortable.

Kim was so great! Visits were consistent every day (which I know my cats appreciated), and many of the daily pictures she sent are so good I could frame them! I really enjoyed working with Kim and look forward to calling on her again the next time we’re out of town.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was young while I was babysitting or when my neighbors were gone for the week. My official pet-sitting experience has been about 3 years. I had the responsibility of walking and playing with dogs, and if they had a cat I would make sure they get the love they need while their owner was out of town. I'm currently a college student, so I have classes during the day. My longest days are Tuesday-Thursday, but I'm done by the early afternoon. I have the availability to stop by for bathroom breaks. My schedule is very flexible besides my classes, so I can easily work with what you need. I can't have any additional pets in my home (due to living in an apartment), but I can come to your house when you need me. If you feel comfortable with it, I have done overnight stays to keep the pets company during the night. I love going on walks in the morning and late afternoon with the dogs I have pet-sat.

About: I’ve had pets all my life, but I’ve also worked for 4 years in 2 different pet stores! I’ve worked as a dog bather, a pet care associate, and an aquatics specialist. I’ve also pet sit for my family and neighbors since 2010. I have pets of my own so pet care is a daily necessity. I’ll make sure to fit in as much care as I can in a day and won’t skimp out on your pet. I can care for your pet in whichever way you need me to. I don’t cut corners and I make sure the animals are cared for accordingly. If possible I’d even send photos to pet parents so they know how their pet is doing. They aren’t just pets, they’re family!

Garrett was awesome! He was very communicative from the beginning and was on time and attentive to our cats' needs every day. One of our boys had a little accident and he went out of his way and cleaned it up! Would definitely recommend him and will use him again in the future!

About: I’ve had experience with all kinds of pets since I was a child. From scales, to feathers, to fur. I’m a working veterinary professional who can administer medications and supportive care. I will always love and take care of your babies like they are my own I can always do weekend and weekday Petsitting. I work a full time job in Veterinary medicine during the week so afternoon drop ins during the weekdays are limited to 10-15 minutes I always follow the instructions left by my clients. I strive to maintain a clean and orderly environment while making sure your pets are safe and well taken care of. All pets with fenced in yards are typically allowed to roam in the safety of their yard as long as clients don’t have any restrictions in place. If a fenced secure space is not available, I always leash walk to maintain the safety of your pets *please note for walks. Due to the multiple safety hazards of retractable leashes, I require the use of a standard 6 foot leash. If you do not own one, I am able to provide this for the duration of the stay*

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, I currently have 4 dogs and a cat, so I’m very used to daily pet care, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving lots of attention. I’ve also pet sat for friends and family many times over the years. I know every pet has a different personality and routine, and I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals! I currently work part-time at a salon, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I’m able to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, companionship, and lots of attention. I’m very used to daily pet routines since I care for multiple pets of my own, and I always try to make sure animals feel comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, behavior changes, and making sure pets feel calm and secure in their environment. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities and energy levels, and I always try to give them patient, loving, and dependable care. I’m also happy to follow any special instructions to keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine as closely as possible.

About: I've had dogs since I can remember. My fiancé watched dogs in the past with rover and I would always help. Take the dogs to the park on my days off, play outside, and train them when needed. I am currently on veterans disability so I can focus my whole day to your furry friend. No worry about being stuck in all day. I have 5 acres of yard for them to play on. I have lots of space if needed, room for crates, room outside. Plenty of space so your furry friend won't feel trapped. My animals mind their own.
