Dog Sitting in Seymour

“Claire was an amazing sitter! She kept me updated the entire time and was quick to problem solve when my high maintenance cat threw some curve balls. She cared for her just like we would and I got to enjoy my weekend because I knew she was in good hands. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

“She was so great to our 3mo pup who had to come on vacation because she’s still too young for boarding. She was easy to communicate with, came to our cabin, and was very kind to our babe.”

About: I have had pets in my home for as long as I can remember. These loving, sweet members of our families deserve only the best care. I have been pet sitting and walking for a few years off and on. I also volunteer at Young Williams Animal Shelter so I interact with all kinds of different sweet animals often. I have 1 cat and 1 dog right now, both are my babies that I love dearly. I also am working through the process of getting my dog training certification so I can further my training and education on these sweet animals! I hope you will consider me to be your pet sitter and I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I am a college student so I do have classes, but I have no classes Tuesday and Thursdays and I have lots of free time during the day! I love animals so I thought this would be a fantastic way to spend my time on the side! Your pets safety is the upmost priority when considering pet sitting. I only do in home sitting because I want to ensure it is the care is to your standards. I also do have means of travel if dog parks were an interest, and I have a seat attachment for all sized dogs to keep them from moving all around the car!

“Brittany is WONDERFUL! She looked after our Siberian kitty for 3 days while we were away for Thanksgiving and did a phenomenal job. She provided photo updates and made sure our girl was fed and felt loved while we were away. Will absolutely be using her services again!”

About: Hey there! I’m Zen, and I have been taking care of pets for friends and family since I was a kid. Not to mention I’ve had several pets over the years, cats and dogs. I would be honored to have to the pleasure of looking after your fur babies! I’m currently doing a cross country road trip in my mini RV, and services like Rover help me stay on the road! My availability is very accommodating and I can be there for your pet any time, day or night. I will always strive to ensure that your pet is the most comfortable they can be. Whether it’s offering them treats, playing with them, or simply spending time in their presence to so they don’t feel lonely. Whatever is necessary, I can surely make happen.

About: Hi there! I’m Ansley. I live in South Knoxville and work in animal science. I have over 10 years of experience caring for other people’s animals, and nearly 22 years of caring for my own pets. I worked in both small and large animal vet clinics as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable giving medications and treating ill or elderly pets. I have two Labrador retrievers (6 years old and 6 months old) and a Manx cat that needs extra attention due to some health issues. I’m a very active person and frequently walk or run with my own dogs, so if you’re just looked for the occasional walk to get your pup’s energy out, I’m your gal! I also have a fenced in backyard so if you’re interested in a play date, message me and we can work something out! My boys love new friends. Unfortunately, my cat does not do well with other cats, but he LOVES dogs. He was a rescue as a kitten from the clinic I worked in, so he grew up around the dog boarding kennels and 100% thinks he’s one of them. I know Rover is for dogs and cats, but if you or anyone you know is looking for assistance with farm animals, I can help there too. I currently work in the dairy industry but have experience caring for all livestock species. I have BSA and MS degrees in Animal and Dairy Science. I’m available mostly during weekends and evenings during the week however my job is flexible and I can do drop in visits during my lunch, as well as on my way to work in the mornings. I’m happy to provide drop in visits and walks in client’s homes. As mentioned previously, I do have animals of my own and would be open to bringing a dog to my house if they are friendly and play well with others. I have a fenced in backyard that my dogs love. I cannot bring other cats into my house due to my own cat’s distaste for others, but he is fine with dogs.

“Kiki was awesome in a pinch! Highly recommended!”

About: I'm a veterinary student with 3,000+ hours of clinical animal experience, Fear Free certified, and experienced with dogs, cats, puppies, seniors, and pets requiring medications. I have both in-home and drop-in pet sitting experience and focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important reliable, attentive care is and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. As a veterinary student, I spend much of my time caring for and handling animals, and I also care for my own two cats and two puppies. My schedule allows me to plan ahead and provide reliable drop-in visits, walks, feeding, medication administration, playtime, and companionship. I prioritize clear communication, punctuality, and making sure each pet's individual needs are met consistently Whether I am caring for pets in my client's home or my own, my priority is creating a safe, low-stress, and consistent environment. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. As a veterinary student and Fear Free Certified professional, I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, energy level, and overall well-being so I can quickly recognize any concerns. In a client's home, I respect their space, provide regular updates with photos, and ensure pets receive plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection. I am experienced handling dogs and cats of different ages, temperaments, and medical needs, including seniors and pets requiring medication. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel comfortable, confident, and stress-free while they are apart.

About: For the past 5 years I have taken care of big & small, young & old dogs for friends, family and neighbors. I have many years of pet sitting and dog walking. I have two large dogs myself. They are like my babies! I currently work full time as a baker so I’m usually up at the crack of dawn. However I’m available in the afternoon and evenings. I would care for your pet like they are my own. I have a fenced yard and I’m always alert of my surroundings. I know that’s it’s a being deal to trust a stranger with your fur baby so I would only want the best for them while you are gone.

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, and professionally for about 12 years. We have 2 dogs of our own that we adore. Right now I am working during the week until about 4 but I am available all weekend for any pet needs! I am available after 4 during the week to walk/ do drop in visits We have a fenced in yard in a very safe neighborhood. My 2 dogs, Sadie and Duke, love to go on walks and play fetch.

“Leslie agreed to meet the dogs before her first visit and is very understanding of their different needs. She gave them more time to play than I expected and was patient with my fearful dog. Thank you!”

About: I was raised in a household where dogs and cats were always part of the family, which helped me develop a deep passion for their well-being from an early age. Over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience in caring for both species, understanding their unique needs and personalities. My knowledge extends to administering oral medications safely and effectively, always ensuring the animal is comfortable and stress-free during the process. I make it a priority to provide plenty of comfort and affection, as well as engaging playtime tailored to each pet’s preferences, helping to keep them both happy and healthy. This lifelong experience has made me attentive, patient, and enthusiastic about supporting the health and happiness of dogs and cats alike. With my flexible schedule, pet care easily integrates into both my daily and weekly routines. I am able to adjust my availability to meet the needs of each animal, ensuring meals, medication, exercise, and affection are provided at consistent times that suit their habits. This flexibility allows me to devote focused attention during morning, afternoon, and evening hours, whether it’s feeding and playtime or walks and grooming. On a weekly basis, I plan for deeper cleaning and enrichment activities, such as refreshing litter boxes, rotating toys for stimulation, and scheduling longer walks or social outings for dogs. My adaptable approach ensures that every pet receives the care and companionship they deserve, regardless of my other commitments, making their well-being a top priority throughout each day and week. Providing a safe environment for the animals is fundamental to their well-being and peace of mind. This includes ensuring that the living spaces are free of hazards, such as toxic plants, accessible electrical cords, or small objects that could be swallowed. Safety measures like secure fences for dogs and proper window screens for cats help prevent accidents and escape attempts, allowing pets to relax and feel protected in their surroundings. The importance of a safe environment extends beyond physical safety—it also reduces stress and anxiety, which can impact both behavior and health. When pets know their space is secure, they are more likely to thrive, exhibit positive behaviors, and form trusting bonds with their caretaker. By prioritizing safety, I create a nurturing atmosphere where every animal can enjoy comfort, companionship, and the freedom to play and explore without worry.

“She was great with our dog! Really went the extra mile when dog sitting. Took the dog out for walks and shared pictures when taking care of the dog!”

About: I have cared for cats and dogs my entire life! My family had multiple pets at all times growing up. I am a cat mom myself with shared custody with my twin sister. I offer a pet stranger free home with my own cats staying with my sister while I have guest pets. 🐈 I first began pet sitting in college and primarily serviced young adults and college students. Thus, I have always offered an affordable rate so that regular people can obtain pet sitting services without having to pay expensive boarding fees. 🐶 Although I just started using Rover, I have been sitting for years through friends, family, and referrals! I can provide references for those I have serviced in the past that have not been through the app. 🐈 I am a former President, Vice President, and class representative of the Animal Legal Defense Fund at the University of Tennessee College of Law. I am available any day of the week for boarding. 🐈 Currently, I am not accepting bookings over 2 months in advance. 🐈 For drop in visits and walks, I am available Mon-Fri between 7:30-8:30 a.m., 11:30-1:30 p.m., and after 6 p.m. Available all day Saturday and Sunday beginning 9 a.m. 🐶 Drop off and pickups must occur between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. 🐈 Meet and greets must occur in the evening and are offered at Sutree Landing Park. Your pets become mine for a few days! I would care for them as if they were my own. I let pets staying in my home on the furniture and sleep in my bed. If you would like pictures of my home to see where your pet would be staying, feel free to ask! My personal pets vacate my home and stay with their other parent while I am sitting to eliminate conflicts with guest pets. 🐈 I send as many pictures as you want and I am available by text all day.

“Elexis was great! She let us know if she was running late and sent us active updates as soon as she got to the house. She did great with our dogs.”

“Ryan was available on really short notice, was great to work with, and took fantastic care of our cat! Would definitely recommend!”

“Storm was very delightful to work with. Our Bella has attitude with many people, but she was very accepting of Storm from the start. It is comforting to know we can enjoy our vacations and have a responsible caring care taker for our house and furbabies.”

About: I am older. I have lots of life experience with my furbabies and know how important they are. I want to love your babies just like you do! I would like to do this during the weekend as I work full time during the week. Some days during the week may be adjusted, but not often. We live on 10 acres and way off the road so they love roaming the countryside with us! It is a join to watch them play

“Madison, We cannot thank you enough for taking care of our boys while we were away. You were fantastic and they seemed to absolutely love you! Thank you for being so communicative and sending us updates daily! I know we had a unique situation and we appreciated your understanding! We hope we can book with you again in the future! Thank you, thank you!!!!”

About: I’ve worked with dogs for years, starting as a dog walker in Boston MA to then owning my own pet-related business, including Lexi’s Lucky Pup K9 Care in Manchester, NH (2023) and Lexi’s Paws & Peace Grooming in Pawtucket, RI (2025). I have experience with all different personalities, breeds, and energy levels. I’m very patient, attentive, and good at reading animals, especially dogs that are anxious, shy, or high energy. I prioritize safety, comfort, a low-stress environment, and of course making sure pets have fun! I also work in senior caregiving, so being responsible, communicative, and detail-oriented comes naturally to me. I know how important it is to trust the person watching your pets, and I try to make owners feel as comfortable as possible through updates, photos, and consistency. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can usually accommodate different routines, potty schedules, walks, and drop-off/pick-up times. I currently live full-time in an RV in a quiet campground setting - and yes, I know that probably sounds unexpected at first (e) — but it's actually a calm, nature-filled environment with a fully fenced-in yard and lots of supervised outdoor time. Pets are welcome to relax wherever they're most comfortable, whether that's on the couch, on my bed, in a dog bed, outside in the fenced yard, or even lounging outside with me on the lawn chairs getting fresh air. I work from home, so pets get lots of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, outdoor time, and interaction throughout the day.
