Pet Sitting in Rockwood

About: I have been caring for other people’s animals since I was a teenager and have been around all types since I was very young. From dogs to cats to ferrets to fish, I have cared for them all! Young or old or even a little special, I’ll treat them all as my own ♥️ My schedule has recently opened up quite a bit so I can provide more care for my current and new pet owners. I have two cats of my own that I take care of and divide my time during the week between them and my other pet sitting critters. I’m more than happy to stay with pets in the home for an extended amount of time or even just to check in and play with them ♥️ I normally will go to the client’s home and care for their fur babies there. I often will ask them to provide a list of details on what needs to be done, where things are located, and if there’s any additional information I need to know in regards to their pets (ex: vet info, medications, behavior). The more details I have, the better I can care for your fur babies!

“Stephanie was the best! Wonderful communication and really helped ease our minds. So hard for us to leave our fur babies but having Stephanie checking in on them and sending pics and videos helped so much. Very much recommend!”

About: I've had pets all my life. We just recently said good bye to our precious Kota. We just adopted a mix from Young Williams. Would love to have yours over for some love and attention. I'm a wife, mom, grandmother, real estate agent and pet lover. I can come to your or you can come to me. I am very flexible. I have 2 dog doors with a screened in porch for laying in the shade and still being outside. I have a private fenced in back yard and a wonderful neighborhood for walking. As a real estate agent I'm aware of the privacy of homes.

About: I’ve grown up with pets. I’ve taken care of animals ever since I was little. People know they can rely on me to give their pet the amazing treatment they deserve! As an online college student at UTK, I'm your ideal pet sitter, always available and ready for anything your furry friends need. Whether it's playtime, walks, or just some extra TLC, I prioritize your pet's happiness and well-being above all else. Throughout the day, between classes and assignments, I'm there to ensure your pets feel loved and attended to.

With a flexible schedule and a genuine passion for animals, I'm not just a pet sitter – I'm a trusted companion for your pets, ready to make every moment special. Choose me, and rest assured your pets will receive top-notch care and endless affection. When it comes to caring for both cats and dogs, safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities. While cats won't be venturing outdoors, I ensure they have a stimulating indoor environment with cozy spots, toys, and scratching posts to keep them happy and entertained. In my home, for our canine companions, leash walks are the name of the game to ensure their safety and enjoyment during outdoor excursions. Meanwhile, our feline friends have their own special corners where they can lounge and play to their heart's content. From playful pups to curious cats, I welcome pets of all sizes and personalities with open arms. Whether it's a solo adventure or a cozy cuddle session, I tailor my care to meet the individual needs of each furry friend, ensuring they feel loved and cherished. While outdoor adventures may be off the table for our feline friends, there are plenty of indoor activities to keep them engaged and content. Whether it's interactive playtime, cozy naps in sunny spots, or exploring new toys, I'm dedicated to providing a stimulating environment that brings out the best in every pet. So, whether it's a purring cat or a wagging tail, rest assured your beloved pets are in caring hands. With safety, trust, and a whole lot of love, I'm here to make every moment special for your furry family members, indoors and out.

“Niki went above and beyond watching our two dogs, gave them a lot of attention. Did some watering of our garden and filled bird feeders outside when needed. Will definitely have her sit for us again. Highly recommended.”

About: With over 20 year’s experience with caring for many creatures, I value the connection pets have with their humans. I will treat your pet as one of the family with gracious care. As a graduate student, my schedule is flexible and I’m usually home when I’m not working in a lab. My daughter is a teen and available for backup help when I need her. We make a great team. I have a small fenced area at my townhouse and beyond that there is a wooded area with a creek. I allow my cats to roam but they never leave the wooded area. They are trained to come inside when I call them and I’ve even trained one to sit on command. They have access to a private room if a pet needs to stay overnight in my home. I never push boundaries and realize all creatures have their own personal bubble. I am an experienced walker and use positive coaching and encouragement for walks.

“Talking Maddie was the best!!! Followed instructions to the letter, was always affectionate and professional with the the four dogs. I could not ask for a better dog tender will use her exclusively for any future needs for my babies. Do yourself a favor and use this sitter for your fur babies!”

About: I love to take dogs on walk and play with them as much as possible. I know most dogs need a good routine to stay calm in their environment while their owners are out. I will do whatever the owner asks to make sure the dog is cared for properly and has the best time when in my care. I hope to bond and meet many different types of amazing dogs I currently have a wide open schedule and can accommodate different times of day for your dog or pets needs. Day or night I can make it work I make sure their pet is completely comfortable with a cool room and plenty of water/food. Treats when they are being well behaved. Fun activities like fetch and walks throughout the day as long as the pet is up for it!

“Very responsive and returns messages quickly. On time and dependable. Our dog Kona loved her right away! Will definitely request Christine whenever we need a dog sitter.”

Kathy C.

“Christina was great caring for our 3 cats while we were away. She arrived when she said she was going to and kept the fed and clean. She was very responsive and attentive. We received notifications on each visit and pictures from the visits. Thank you for take care of our little ones and treating them like your own!”

About: Hey there! I'm your go-to pet sitter with a decade of experience working with all kinds of furry friends. From dogs to cats, I've got you covered. Need medication administration? No problem! With my expertise, your pets are in safe hands. When I'm not caring for your adorable companions, you can find me enjoying the company of my own two dogs and three cats. And guess what? I've got a fantastic fenced-in yard perfect for playtime! Let's give your pets the love and care they deserve. I’m currently a student at the University of Tennessee so I am available most afternoons and very early mornings. I also am home every evening for the entire night so overnight boarding is available. I am also completely free on weekends so if you want to have a date night, a shopping run, or just need someone to watch your babies while you take a well deserved nap, I got you! At home pets will be taken care of by preference or directions from the pet owner. I have multiple rooms in the house so if there are some older pals or some friends that are just a little more introverted, they will be made to feel as comfortable as possible with some one on one time to avoid over stimulation. I can take them on walks or let them play in the yard alone with my supervision. For those fluffy balls of energy that need more stimulation, my dogs and cats LOVE to play and run to their hearts content! My dogs are very social and have their whole lives experience playing and meeting new animals! Whether it’s playtime and long walks or cuddles and naps I am able to cater to your pets needs so that you can sit back and relax worry free!

“First time using a Rover sitter and we got one of the best sitters ever. Wendy was such great help while we were out of town. She went above and beyond. She did more than we expected. All the babies were so well taken care of. She even got my elusive cat to come out!! I could tell how happy and relaxed my dogs were on the pictures she sent me. She helped me keep the cat/dog hair to a minimum among other stuff so coming home was like being gone for the day. She was super detailed on her report, letting me know how they did and what they did, and that she checked that all doors were locked (super important to me). I will certainly use her services again. Thank you Wendy. You're an angel!”

About: I’ve been in a family of pets since I was born. All my pets lived out there long lives with deep love and the best of care and feeding. I pay close attention to their physical health always and give immediate medical attention when necessary. I am free & flexible most any day of the week with availability of hours from morning to evening. Will also consider any special requests. When doing a drop by or doggy walk, our other address, any issues needed regarding food, water, and potty needs, including exercise walking and socializing.

About: I’m currently a stay at home mom to my 3 year old and infant. Growing up we had a tank of 10+ fish, 7 chickens, and 4 dogs. Now as an adult I’ve had 4 cats, 2 dog, and a ferret (Eros🌈, Alala🌈, Bean, Freya, Sif, Rosie and Trixie). They’re all my babies, and I treat them as if they were my actual children. My female cat Bean was a stray I took in when I was pregnant, she ended up having a uterine infection and had to have a kitty hysterectomy. I watched her and cared for her 24/7 till she healed up, giving her medicine, checking her incision, etc. I also had to do the same when my boy cats were fixed(their fixings were a tad easier to care for). I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I’m with my pets 24/7 and my kids. My fiancé is home by 6pm, rest of the day it’s just us. I like to make sure animals that aren’t mine are comfortable with me and I like to slowly introduce myself to not scare them if they seem uncomfortable/scared. I try to play with them often and even have them do tricks if they know them and even if they don’t just for mental stimulation.

“Pamela is outstanding. We needed a quick solution for someone to take care of our koi fish. Pamela was quick to rise the challenge. Her care of them was outstanding!!! Will use her again if we the need arises”

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my whole life. Growing up, my family had both a dog and a cat who we cared for well into their senior years—my dog even battled cancer, and we gave her all the love and comfort she needed in her final days. As an adult, I adopted a 15-year-old blind cat who lived happily with me for two years before passing. I’m currently a proud pet mom to a playful 2-year-old Cane Corso that we raised from just 5 weeks old, and a sweet, anxious cat who’s made amazing progress in our home. I truly understand the needs of pets at all life stages and will care for yours like they’re my own. As a teacher taking time off this school year to focus on my gourmet cookie business and family, I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I’m available for daytime, evening, and weekend care, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and any specific care they need—whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, or just cuddles. I treat every home with respect and always aim to leave things just as I found them!

“Monica was the perfect cat sitter. Handled everything perfectly. We have a very grumpy cat and she made sure he was well taken care of the entire time regardless of his mood. I highly recommend Monica to anyone needing her services.”

About: *I am currently only offering services that are under 10 miles away from Midtown* I have always had my own pets and have been caring for other peoples pets for over 6 years. I am a dog groomer in Lenoir City and have worked in the industry for almost 2 years. My experience includes handling dogs of many breeds and sizes, cats, horses, goats, and a variety of small critters. I currently have 3 dogs, a cat, 2 guinea pigs, and a hamster. Due to my current work schedule, I am only available on Thursdays and Fridays, or before/after work the rest of the week. I am a dog groomer so care for more pets fits well with my day to day. Due to having 3 dogs of my own, I am not offering any boarding. I can do drop in visits, walks, or overnight care in your home. I’ll do my best to help keep your pets on a routine and make them comfortable.

About: I love all animals from fur babies to reptiles to exotics you name it! Hello, my name is Courtney, I am 29 and I travel for work with my fiancé, Jeff and our 75 pound German Shepherd who is very energetic and playful with a personality all his own! I love to get to know new animals ♥️ Growing up we pretty much had a farm; I have raised dogs, cats, cattle, pigs, hamsters, guinea pigs etc. I have also worked around chickens, ducks, goats, lizards a little bit of everything else. I am available to feed, water, clean up after, let out, walk, love on, play with your animals, and stay over with your pets while your gone on adventures. As a career I’m a millwright and I’m awaiting my next assignment so in the mean time I’m keeping myself busy with the things I love the most; animals. Just like children, all pet parents are different and have a different idea of how their pets should be taken care of, that’s why I treat every animal differently according to how their parents would like them cared for 🩷

About: I am a Veterinary Technician who is currently waiting to take his national certification exam to work in the state of Tennessee. I have been working in doggy daycares and vet clinics for the last eight (8) years and have loved every minute of it. I recently moved to Tennessee from the Pacific Northwest and would like to continue to care for pets even though I’m not in a clinic yet. Even when I return to clinics I still plan to keep doing walks and home visits if for no better reason than to get out of my house everyday. I am currently unemployed and looking to start making money again and the best way to do so is on my own terms. I am free every day except for Sundays to do walks, house visits, or even house sit if needed. In my clients homes I make sure to follow all instructions given for pet care. I have a great deal of experience working with pets that need medications and special care after working in an Emergency Clinic, and I do my best to clean up and leave the home in the same state I received it.
