“Danielle took care of our two dogs and cats for week and was exceptional. She even took out our garbage can to be picked up on garbage day and brought in the mail each day. We will definitely be using her again in the near future. Thank you Danielle.”

“Natasha was excellent! She was able to quickly turnaround a first visit and schedule a week of pet sitting while we were out of town. Our cats loved having her visit and play with them, and she provided some great photos during her time.”

“Exceptional customer service. Another rover sitter; "Vivi" cancelled on me at the last minute and I asked Rachel if she could sit. Thank God she did..... She is a blessing. She took very good care of my three babies and I will definitely use her again. Rachel thank you so much!!!! We really appreciate you!”

“McKenna went above and beyond to make sure our cat was taken care of. We will definitely re-book her in the future!! Our cat was totally comfortable and safe around her. We appreciate it being last minute and you accepting him! :)”

“My cat was very calm and trusting with Grace from her first introduction even though Spider is now older and more cautious. She therefore allowed Grace to brush her during visits which was my key request. ++cj”

“Aubrey was great with our two dogs and communicated well. She came out for a meet and greet, sent pictures and updates during each drop in visit.”

Tara W.

“Peyton did a great job taking care of my kitties. She sent pics and videos along with updates. She even got my fat cat to play! I would highly recommend!”

“My puppy loves spending time with Lori. Lori has a sweet spirit and she is a special lady. She is wonderful with my 12 week old fur baby. They formed an instant bond. She met us ahead to be sure to get the details of the drop-in. Lori sent photos and videos of her progress with our puppy while we were away. She is very knowledgeable about training our rambunctious little guy to obey her commands. We are very impressed and can tell the difference she is making. We can't wait until we see her again. She is amazing!”

About: Throughout the years I've taken care of cats and dogs primarily! I've stayed overnight as well as made visits to homes to feed, walk, and play with pets! I am new to Rover and excited to interact with your furry family members! I love photography and can send you adorable photos of your fur babies! I am available during afternoons and evenings after my full-time job, as well as most weekends! I can also make stops early in the morning before work if needed :) I'll happily follow any and all instructions for making sure your pet is in the best of hands! At this time I haven't considered housing animals where I live, but I would be open to it if it seems like a good fit!

“Ali is the best! Our dog absolutely loves her.”

About: Hello, I recently moved back home after finishing my Master’s in Plant Sciences at The University of Tennessee. I have a special place in my heart for dogs. I have had at least one dog in my house since I was a baby. My family had a Pomeranian for 15 years. We were able to rescue and care for a beagle until the end of last year. Back at home in the Bristol, my family currently has a 16 year old hound mix. My sister has a three legged dog that I fostered at the beginning of 2020. I have fostered with YWAC for a year, and I have gained so much experience working with dogs with behavioral and medical needs. I am more than happy to treat your pet as my own and treat it with the best care I am able to when I am needed! I am currently working out at South Holston Lake part time. With this arrangement, I have designated time for my work responsibilities while also maintaining availability for additional commitments. I am enthusiastic about the prospect of taking on extra responsibilities and am confident in my ability to balance both professional and other commitments effectively. Please feel free to discuss specific timing and scheduling needs, and I will do my best to accommodate and coordinate accordingly. Ensuring the well-being of both pets and their home is a top priority for me. I approach home care with the utmost respect, treating each space as if it were my own. I will diligently follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owners, such as feeding schedules, medication administration, and any other routine tasks. Maintaining a clean and tidy environment is essential, and I am committed to regular cleaning, including pet-related areas and any messes that may occur. Security is paramount, and I will conscientiously secure doors, windows, and any other access points to guarantee the safety of both the home and its occupants. Communication is key, and I will provide regular updates to pet owners, ensuring peace of mind during their time away. Overall, I strive to create a comfortable, secure, and loving atmosphere for both pets and their cherished home.

About: I worked at a dog daycare for over 2+ years. I have experience with most types and temperaments of dogs. I have trained puppies previously. And I have had animals of my own since I was a child. I understand the patience and kindness that animals need and I love to get to know them. I have 3 cats and a tarantula of my own which gives me so much insight on the care and attention pets need. Love all animals, big or small! Im big on communication and empathy with people and pets! I have a pretty flexible job so I would love to spend my extra time caring for your pet to ensure their health and happiness. I love to get outside for walks so why not bring along a cute companion! In client homes I will be sure to respect the pets space and the home itself. I take great detail to their mannerisms and make sure my behaviors matches accordingly to deescalate any situation or to calm any nervous feelings.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life, from playful puppies to sweet senior pets. I live in a calm, cozy home with lots of love to give and a soft spot for shy or anxious critters. I know every pet is unique, and I take time to get to know their needs and comfort zones. Whether your pet is high energy, a cuddlebug, or a lil’ weirdo, I’ve got the patience, gentleness, and love to make them feel safe and happy. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, chickens, fish etc. I’m comfortable giving oral medications. I’m also a master of belly rubs, slow trust building, and making anxious animals feel safe. I’m currently very flexible and open to bookings! I do my best to accommodate each pet parent’s needs, and I’ll always communicate clearly if I have overlapping requests or existing bookings. Once we connect, I can give you the most accurate times I’m available, and we can work out what fits best for both you and your pet. Your schedule matters to me, and I’ll make sure your pet gets the time and care they deserve! In my home, pets are treated like family, with love, patience, and lots of attention to their needs. I make sure evwryone has fresh water, regular meals, potty breaks, and cozy places to rest (including crates or safe zones if they need a little quiet). I’m big on snuggles, enrichment, and making sure they feel safe and secure. I also keep an eye on behavior and energy levels, and I’m comfortable giving oral medication if needed. Whether they’re shy or extra playful, I adapt to their vibe and treat them like my own.

About: What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages, including training puppies and caring for seniors. I provide loving, personalized, and reliable care every time. I would love to serve your pet in my home or yours! I will always ensure lots of love and gentle care for your pets. I have big yard for play time. I also have crates if your pet is crate trained. I’m able to be home with your pet.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with family dogs of all breeds and sizes, and in 2017, I got a Goldendoodle of my own, who has truly deepened my understanding of the bond between dogs and their people. Over the years, I’ve also provided dog-sitting services for friends, neighbors, and coworkers. I've helped with everything from daily walks and playtime to feeding routines and overnight care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all temperaments and energy levels, and I always aim to create a calm, happy environment where they feel safe and loved. Whether your pup loves a quiet cuddle or an active day, I’ll tailor my care to fit their unique personality and needs. I’m currently in graduate school pursuing my doctorate, which means I’m in class during the weekdays until around 4 PM. However, I’m available for evening drop-ins or walks during the week, and I have open availability on weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide consistent, reliable care during the times I’m available. Your pet’s comfort and routine are important to me, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate their needs. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. At my home, I offer a clean, pet-friendly environment with a fully fenced-in yard, giving dogs a secure space to play and relax. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure pets stay safe and comfortable. Inside, I maintain a calm and organized space, free of hazards, and I’m mindful of each pet’s routine, dietary needs, and comfort level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and attention I would want for my own. I follow instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and prioritize communication to give owners peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is always to create a safe, trusting environment where pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for.

About: I’ve grown up on a horse farm and have had multiple dogs since I was a child. Taking care of the dogs has always been my job while I am home. I am currently in between jobs in my field and am looking to fill the gap I love animals and want to help out where can while also making some pocket change. I am extremely trustworthy and reliable. Somewhat of a people pleaser and will do everything by whatever rules and steps you request. Willing to go on long walks to entertain pups and could potentially bring one of my small dogs along to socialize if preferred.

“Mackenzie did an awesome job! My two golden retrievers love her! She went above and beyond and taking care of them yesterday. She did exactly what we needed and more. She is very responsible, easy to work with and communicate with, and she took care of our dogs just like we do.”

“Sandra was very flexible as I called her on the spur of the moment. Baily took to her immediately like they had always known each other. Sandra was very professional and even helped me a couple of tricks. We will ALWAYS be a return client. If you are looking for someone that treats your babies like she treats her babies LOOK NO FURTHER.”

“Hannah did a great job checking on Puddin and Joey! She was very patient with a very timid Puddin. Joey warmed right up to her. She was very communicative and sent updates about them. I would definitely recommend Hannah for any pet sitting needs ?”
