Pet Sitting in Roan Mountain

“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.”

“Kayla was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Boone. He warmed up to her right away, and she took great care of him during our Thanksgiving travels. She was reliable, thorough, and clearly very comfortable with dogs, which made it so easy to relax knowing he was in good hands. She even went above and beyond by bringing bottled water for him when our pipes froze. We’re so grateful for her help and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

“Savannah is amazing! My timid pup is loving her and she is thorough and on time! This is my first time using Rover and I am thrilled. I love the pictures and messages. Outstanding service!”

Sadie H.

“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”

About: II’ve loved animals my whole life and have a natural gift for connecting with them—especially cats! I have extensive experience with medical care, including giving injections, liquid medications, and complex pill schedules. I also previously held a Groomer’s License in Colorado, so I am very comfortable handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve cared for animals with everything from broken limbs to chronic diseases, so your pet is in very capable hands." I moved to Elizabethton just before Thanksgiving to be with my parents and I became the primary caregiver for my father, who has dementia. It’s a responsibility I’m proud to take on. Getting out of the house to walk, play with, and fall in love with your pets is exactly what I need to stay balanced. Since I manage my dad’s daily tasks, I have a very flexible schedule and the time to truly focus on your fur-babies. I’m looking for that 'pet therapy' a reason to get out and about just as much as your pets are looking for a loving caregiver. I’ll be there whenever you need me to even in short notice! Safety and trust are my top priorities. When I am in your home, I am respectful of your space and extremely vigilant about door safety and environment hazards. I am honest about my capabilities; I would never attempt a medical or care task if I wasn't 100% confident I could do it safely. My vehicle is also set up for safety, with plenty of room and when needed a leash that conect to their collar or harness then buckes to the backseat so your pets are secure while we are on the go.

“Hailey was very helpful and took on a very last-minute check in. My doggy gets nervous around new people but Hailey helped him feel very comfortable. Thanks, Hailey!”

About: Ever since my family got a collie as a pet when I was a kid, I have been in love with dogs. That has only enhanced as I’ve grown older and cared for my own. I am currently working remotely from home with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for and love on your pets. Prior to walking your pets or stopping by for feedings or playtime, I would like to meet you and your pets first, if possible. That way we can make sure we all feel comfortable! It will also give us a chance to talk through instructions and expectations. I know this isn't always feasible and that's ok.

About: I have gained experience dog sitting for friends and neighbors as early as elementary school! I love all animals from chickens to frogs, cats, and dogs! I'm a college athlete, so I will work around my school and practice schedule! Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays will be the best days for me! I have experience with many pets including chickens, turkeys, cats, and dogs. I strive to create an environment for pets to feel safe and happy!

About: I have took care of dogs and cats since i was 9 years old. I have always had animals in my house and I love to take care of them. I have looked after my friend’s and family’s cats and dogs both. I am free most of the time! I want to find a way to help others by also doing something I love which is taking care of dogs. I watch after my dogs daily and would love to share the love I have for my dogs to yours. I do not have a fenced in yard, however i do own leashes that I would take dogs out on in order to insure nothing happens to your fur babies!

About: I’ve raised and trained 2 dogs since fifth grade and have been the primary caregiver for both of them. My most recent experience was in Alaska working with sled dogs. There I was made responsible for daily feeding and exercise of the dog teams, as well as loading and unloading procedures to get 15-25 large, high energy huskies into kennels or harnesses for excursions. Experience working with high energy dogs. I’m currently going to school at Lees McRae college, so I have a flexible schedule for your dogs! I’m available for those early morning check ins or walks, and from 2pm onward everyday for afternoon to evening visits. I’m can uncrate your pup in the mornings or afternoons and make sure they get a nice break and a chance to potty and get some exercise. I’m comfortable leashing and unleashing dogs, as well as taking them on walks and making sure they get enough exercise. On walks I love active training with any commands they’re supposed to learn, as well as just giving them enough work and time to get out any wiggles!

“Sam is always on time, professional, and communicates very well. I appreciate the photos and updates during the visit. It brings me much joy and comfort knowing Sam is taking care of my kitties! Thank you again for your help!!”

“Christy is paw-some! She took diligent and friendly care of my cat while I was on duty. She sent updates and pictures too! Christy is a great person for anyone to leave their pet with!”

About: I’ve helped take care of every animal you can think of! Having a big family gave me plenty of opportunities to learn and grow with different animals I attend college two days a week and work the night shift at my job! My day starts pretty early so I have a little too much free time and would love to spend it caring for animals! As long as the animal is provided with every basic essential it needs I will go above and beyond to tend to every need your pet has

About: I have taken care of many animals over the years. The most recent and frequent are for a few farm animals, horses, goats, chickens, etc. While there I feed them, keep the yard clean, and take care of their basic needs. I have also worked at a Veterinary office. At this office, I work in the kennels as well as perform the duties of a vet technician. This includes administering medications and making sure animals are fed and happy. I am a current college student that does sports as well, but I still have time to walk and take care of anyone's furry friends.. While working with larger animals and working at a veterinary office I have learned how to spot different behaviors and have the skill set to be able to adapt and work with your fur babies to keep them as happy as possible.

About: I have been a dog owner all my life and absolutely adore caring for them. I am a dog owner and also foster dogs in need. I am currently working part time and need a way to generate some additional income. What better way to do that than getting to walk and play with dogs? I have two amazing dogs who love people and dogs alike. A large yard for them to play and get energy out. I have more time than I can use up at the moment so I would love to take care of your fur baby!

About: I have professional experience caring for dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments as a kennel care attendant. I'm also working towards my bachelor's degree in wildlife rehabilitation! I've owned all kinds of pets growing up from dogs and cats to mice, bunnies, birds, fish, and even a snake and a frog. I will treat your pets the same as my own, with respect and complete adoration. I'll even send you pictures of your pets during each visit for when you're missing your babies. I'm currently working towards a bachelor's of science degree, so I'll be pretty busy in the morning on weekdays (when in Banner elk, nc). My schedule usually calms down after 12pm, except Teusdays which are very busy. Please feel free to message me about what you're looking for and we can see if things will work out. I will not be able to stay at your house 24/7 due to my schedule. I will also have to go home for school breaks (winter/summer/spring). When I am at home (Newport News, VA), I will be available 24/7. Just message me and I'll let you know if my location has changed or will be changing before the date you need. But I will be doing my best to change my location on here in a timely manner. I'm a big advocate for playtime. I won't just stand around your house during the scheduled visits and let your dog be bored. We'll play with toys and run around and if you have a fenced in yard you can be sure I'll be out there throwing a tennis ball or playing tug of war with your pup until they're exhausted. I'll make sure our walks leave your dog well excersized and ready to nap for hours after we get home.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, from horses to reptiles! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and some of the others throughout. We recently lost our dog to cancer at just shy of 13 years old, and I’m currently volunteering as a dog walker at the animal shelter to help fill that void. With the limited hours available there, I thought we could try this avenue as well. I work full time, but my daughter and I would love to find a dog to walk Wednesday through Friday evenings, or weekends! We are available some weekends for dog/cat care while you’re away as well. We love walking dogs, playing fetch, petting them, and providing lots of love. We enjoy playing with cat toys, and giving them plenty of attention as well.

About: Hi, I’m Chelsea! I’m 21 years old & live in Butler, TN with my husband. I love animals & have plenty of experience caring for pups! I have experience in dog bathing, walking, sitting & feeding. I treat dogs I’m watching like they’re my own. While your pup is with me, I will also work on any training you’re currently doing & help reinforce positive behaviors! I would love to watch your pup! I do have three cats in my home, but can easily separate them into a separate room in my house if need be. I do have an unfenced yard, but will always take your pup out on leash to ensure their safety. I can also take them on any of the hiking trails in the area if you’d like! I’m an aquarium/aviary service technician & am only gone 2-3 days a week & am normally home on weekends. I’m home fairly often, but when I do need to leave for work I’m only gone for 6 hours at a time. While your dog stays with me, I will send as many (or little) pictures & videos you’d like! While my yard isn’t fenced, your pup will always be on leash with me to ensure their safety. If we go hiking, I have a doggy first aid kit in my car at all times in case of any accidents. While I’m in your home, I’ll respect where you want me to go & where you don’t. I’ll make sure to clean up after myself, & hopefully leave your home looking cleaner than when you left!

Other than that it’s all about our dog Bear. He gets a hike or park time once I get home and on my days off..we are hiking or at the lake or river. We have a large yard that we hang out in with our dog and lots of trails nearby that we like to hike every day.

About: First and for most, I love animals of all kind! I am 24 and have two dogs of my own. I would say I am pretty particular about how I take care of my dogs so I would make sure your dogs got the best care. I have had animals in my life since I could remember and have been a reliable source for animal care since I was about 10. It’s something that I have enjoyed doing and love to meet new clients! You could not find a better person to watch your fur babies! I have a ton of recommendations from amazing people that have trusted me and continue to do so. I have trained dogs as well! Would love to chat and see if we would be a good match! I am a stay at home mom, I am doing this as my full time job so I will ensure they get all the time they need! I have a wild child at home (my husky mix) and am not afraid of a challenge! I take my dogs out multiple times a day to ensure they are comfortable and I’m meeting their needs. My dogs get fed once in the morning and once at night. Of course if I am watching your dog or cat, I can adjust to your animals needs.
