About: Hi everyone! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15, and walking dogs since I was 10 years old. I have pet-sat a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, and guinea pigs. I also have experience with any age or health status- senior dogs, kittens, medicated pets, etc. In general, I’ve experienced many different circumstances, so I can adjust easily. Animals have been a lifelong interest for me. I was the girl begging my parents for a dog, and I take care of my current roommate’s cat frequently while she’s away. I promise to nourish, entertain, and take care of your pet like they’re my own. I'm currently a college senior, though I only have on-campus classes twice a week. This means I can be present quite often for your pet. 4-6 hours or more between feeding/potty breaks is ideal for me. Besides that, I'm quite flexible. In my college house, we already have a cat, and my family back home has a dog; needless to say, I'm used to caring for pets in my free time. I can only pet-sit at the client's house. Due to my roommates and the cat we have, I'm unable to board a pet. I always keep a close eye on the pet's behavior and ensure they're fed on time every day. If they get into something, I'll clean them up no problem. I also have a list of emergency vets I'm prepared to go to if the client doesn't have a preferred vet of their own. However, my specific care of the pet(s) depends on the client's instructions and preferences.
“Our dogs are part of our family and we treat them as such. It was such a blessing to find someone who loves on them so sweetly. Jeff took such good care of them and gave them so much attention. We truly appreciate being able to leave our home confident that our pups are well cared for and protected. We will definitely use Jeff again.”
About: I have had cats, reptiles, dogs and fish my entire life! I have had big dogs, small dogs, kittens and geriatric animals. I currently have three dogs at home and two of them are seniors one is a little dog and one is a Rottweiler they they are on medication so I am extremely familiar with senior dog care. I currently care for one cat at home who is 2 and have three more back in Chicago two are kittens and one is 16 so also lots of experience with cats old and young. I was my neighborhoods pet sitter and have had experience with all animals! I have a cat that I care for everyday and I am very timely and consistent with care and feeding. He is extremely independent so that allows me a lot of time to take care of other animals which I am very familiar with when I go back to Chicago and seeing all my dogs and cats! I am super flexible and adaptable like I said I have dealt with all types of ages and breeds so I can handle a lot. I understand and respect boundaries with animals and will follow the owners instructions. I love playing with animals and going outside or to the park/beach so I am more than willing to do whatever is needed to provide the best and safest care.
About: I have been boarding dogs in my home and providing in-home dog sitting for several years. I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making them feel comfortable, safe, and at home while they’re in my care. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, love, and one-on-one care. I’m also happy to follow each owner’s routine and preferences to make their dog’s stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. 🐾💕 I’m a Gatlinburg Events Manager, so my schedule is busiest during daytime event hours. I’m typically available any day after 5:00 PM, making me a great fit for evening drop-ins, walks, overnight care, and last-minute dinner or evening plans. I offer both boarding in my home and house sitting in your home, depending on what helps your pet feel most comfortable. I live in White Pine, Tennessee, and am available for house sitting throughout Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and surrounding areas. I’ll provide dependable, attentive care and keep you updated while you’re away. My home is in White Pine although I do travel to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge Mon-Fri and can Every pet is different, so I always do my best to follow their owner's routine and preferences. Before each stay, I like to learn about your pet's schedule, feeding routine, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications, and any special instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and affection while maintaining the routines they're familiar with. I understand that leaving a pet with someone else requires trust, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay.
About: My personal experience with animal care spans for essentially my entire life, starting with my parents having participated in AKC dog shows before I was born, ultimately retiring from this when I was extremely young. There have always been many animals in the house and I've participated in assisting with animal care essentially since the moment I have been physically capable of it. I've casually pet sit previously for friends and family friends to positive reception on a word of mouth basis prior to deciding to pursue doing this more consistently. I do not personally have a dog at the moment due to my status as a student meaning variable living conditions and often not with significant space. However, I do eventually plan to get a larger rescue dog when my circumstances allow. For now my personal day to day experience is with my childhood cat, who I have taken with me to college and is now 18 years old. If you happen to have senior pets with special needs, rest assured that I have plenty of experience with such things for both dogs and cats and regularly manage them with my own cat on a daily basis. I would also like to note that I am going into the healthcare field and have shared foundational courses and training in my undergraduate education with several friends who would go on to pursue veterinary medicine or conservation in their graduate tracks. There is a common base of knowledge between myself and future veterinarians and you can rest easy knowing that any medical issues or concerns will be noticed, respected, and handled appropriately. I look forward to meeting your family! I'm in a unique position where until January 2027, I am essentially completely available. Due to this unexpected free time, and upcoming tuition expenses I've felt it would be a good decision to try and make what money I can putting my skills in pet care to use over the course of this available period. I will likely continue to pet sit in 2027, since I do just enjoy it, but be aware that my availability will decrease significantly and I will be much more restricted to weekends. Due to my personal circumstances as a student, I am unable to host. I care for pets first and foremost with respect to any specific instructions provided by my client and secondly, how I would care for my own.
“Taryn is an extremely reliable sitter. Any request or accommodation our kitties needed, Taryn was there! Taryn stayed in our apartment for a week and our kitties were so happy to have somebody there the whole time we were gone. Will book again!”
About: Hello my name is Sarah! I have been pet sitting for 13 years. I worked at a vet clinic for a while and have a passion for all things animals from cats and dogs to reptiles and farm animals. I also worked on a ranch for about 3 years in Texas and cared for and helped train K9 dogs, so I definitely have some experience to give in that department if needed. Since I worked at a vet clinic I am also capable of administrating medicine if required as well. I hope this finds you well and you reach out to me to care for your furbabies! Hope to hear from you soon! I’m currently trying to make this my full time so I’m available when needed and have plenty of time to play and care for your furbabies! I will only care for pets in their own home as to not stress them out with unfamiliar territory and animals. They will be well cared for and get lots of walks, play time, and any additional care needs or instructions that you may want or need! I do require written care instructions as to have full communication of what is needed, I have found that it’s best for all parties just incase anything is not talked over during our initial meeting or conversations.
About: I have been taking care of all types of animals for most of my life. Grew up on a farm, so no stranger to anything! Confident enough to take care of the little and the big pets! I currently work at UT, so I am available mid day and weekends. I work Monday through Friday 4 pm to 1 am. If I don’t answer right away, it’s probably because I am asleep. I am happy to come to your place and take care of or stay with your pet. Will always make sure they are safe and comfortable.
About: Love all animals! Big and small! Love to go on walks and let them have fun and play! I like to take pictures of them as well, and keep you updated along the way! I am self employed so I have a very flexible schedule and can manage my time and make sure I am going to be available when I say I am and be there to attend to the pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, needs, and any special instructions before their stay or visit. I understand that every pet is different and I am willing to accommodate each and every need they may have.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sevierville
Wendy took such wonderful care of our French bulldogs while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for them, and we came home to happy, well-loved pups. Knowing they were safe and in such good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind. We’re so grateful to Wendy and will absolutely trust her with our dogs again!
Wendy has been very kind and engaging with our dog each time she has stayed with him. She is very respectful of our home and is very punctual. We always get lots of pictures and updates from Wendy which makes leaving our dog, who has significant separation anxiety, much easier. Our dog is very comfortable with her and we highly recommend her services.
Jen is truly an exceptional dog sitter. From the moment she met our three dogs, it was clear she has a natural gift with animals—warm, patient, and completely tuned in to their different personalities. She sent thoughtful updates and adorable photos throughout the stay, which gave us total peace of mind. We could tell all three pups felt safe, loved, and genuinely happy in her care. She goes above and beyond in every way. Coming home to three relaxed, well-cared-for dogs says everything. If you’re looking for someone responsible, kind, and truly dedicated to your pets’ well-being, look no further. Jen is the best sitter we’ve ever had, and we’ll gladly book with her again! 🐾💛

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Sevierville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Sevierville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Sevierville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
