About: I’ve taken care of many many pets. From German shepherds, Labs, Boxers, Beagles, little dogs too, Pomeranians, Yorkies, Chihuahuas. I’ve raised many litters. Pets are not just animals, they are family. Your pet will be right at home in my care, comfort snuggles, playtime. I will care for them like they are my own. I work for myself, and at home so my hours are very flexible and I have plenty of time to play and care for your fur baby! In my home, I provide a calm, cozy, and safe environment where pets can relax and feel loved. I follow each pet’s usual routine, feeding schedules, walks, medication, and playtime to help them feel right at home. Pets have access to clean indoor space, comfy spots to nap, and a secure deck to sunbath, and plenty of land for leashed walks. In Clients’ Homes, I care for pets just like you would, keeping them comfortable, loved, and on their routine. I’m respectful of your home, follow all instructions carefully, and give updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I have had animals my entire life, I currently have 3 dogs and a cat of my own. I have small and extra large dogs so I know the care that each size group requires. All of my pet owning friends come to me for medical and training advice. I am also always the first person they come to when they need someone to take care of their beloved pets. I can follow strict regimens regarding food, brushing, bathing, medicine etc. My availability is for weekends only, as I do have a full time position as a Teacher Assistant. I get off work at 12:30 pm every Friday and have every Saturday and Sunday off. My partner works for the Women’s Basketball team at the University of Tennessee and I often take care of their dogs for trips. I know I can easily fit in a few more fur babies to make someone else’s life easier! I have a reliable vehicle to take me to and from your house, as well as a love for exercise for walking your dogs! You and your animals experience with a walker/sitter is my top priority. I understand the fear of being unable to find someone trustworthy to watch your pets, having some of my own. I have a large fenced in yard and still make time to take all 3 dogs on walks to give them the exercise and stimulation they need to be happy.

“Ripley took amazing care of our 3 cats. One of them will usually have some behavioral issues and another will hide when we leave but with her care, there was none of that. They all looked happy and content when we returned. Her daily pictures and texts showed that she was making every effort to care for them as they were her own.”

“Wonderful sitter! We will use her every time for sure!”

About: My first ever job in high school was working for a doggy daycare, training, and grooming facility. This is where my love for animals of every kind bloomed, and i personally have a horse, two dogs, and a cat at my home away from college that I miss very much. At my knoxville home I adore taking my friend's dogs hiking and to the dog park to fulfill that itch of spending time with furry friends. I am a student doing rover part time during the summer and I volunteer at a hospital in town on Monday every week for two hours and an animal shelter with kitties for two hours every Thursday evening. I am very meticulous about maintaining the perfect care for my pets and yours. I understand how important these members of the family are, and I do very well when given a specific list. My love for the outdoors and hiking specifically complement the energetic pups, but I am just as happy to relax at home to study or read.

About: (PSA - I’m getting married! 😅 In December, I’ll be closing my account here to focus on being a wife and pursuing my writing/marketing career. If you already have my number and don’t mind a married couple watching your pets, we will be more than happy to serve you if our schedule allows! The below agreement will still apply, of course; there’s just a second set of hands. 🥰) Home/Pet Owner Satisfaction Agreement: - My personal motto is "Leave it better than you found it." - Your home will be taken care as if it was my own. - I will do light cleaning and even landscaping if needed, so your home stays well kept. - Your pets will receive the attention they deserve. - I will do my absolute best to make sure their daily routine stays the same as if you were home. - I will send you all the pictures and updates, so you can have peace of mind that your pets are happy, safe, and well taken care of. - If you ask me to do something, it will get done. - When you return home, you'll be able to rest immediately because your home will be clean and your pets happy (though definitely excited to see you again!). I always don't trust people easily, and I usually rely on myself a lot to get things done. So it'd be scary for me to have a stranger taking care of my home and pets. I'd worry constantly over my furry family. That's why I try to immediately put you at ease during our initial conversation and respect your home and pet(s). I grew up with pets (hence the 20 years of experience), so I am definitely an animal lover. I've also house/pet sit here on Rover and by word-of-mouth referrals for two years now and already have 30 reviews of pleased home and pet owners. After reading the reviews on my profile and browsing the photo gallery (Get ready for cuteness overload and not from me!), here's how you can work with me: 1. Send me a message. 2. In that message, tell me about your pets, their needs, and what dates you'll be gone. 3. We'll adjust the pricing if needed. 4. Before finalizing the booking, I will meet you and your pet(s) in your home for you to walk me through the daily routine and see if we're a good fit. 5. If both parties agree, we confirm the booking. It's that easy! Thank you so much in advance for trusting me with your home and pet(s)! In return, I will strive to take the best care of your home and pet(s). So that you won't loose any sleep worrying if they're okay or not. That way, you can actually enjoy your vacation or fully focus on business and/or family while you're gone. I work remotely full time as a writer, freelance marketer, and conscious marketing coach, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I’m completely available any day for whatever you need and will be able to give your home and pet(s) the attention they deserve. I will follow whatever instructions you give to a t. As a creative person, my brain can be scattered, but having instructions in a text or list help a ton. That way, you have utmost peace of mind that your home and pet(s) are receiving the best care!

“Sydney did a great job taking care of my 2 dogs. I had never left them with anyone but family before but all went well. She was always on time and the dogs loved her!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and understanding of animals, especially cats, combined with my commitment to providing personalized care. I take the time to learn your pet’s unique routine, preferences, and personality to ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. With a deep attention to detail and experience as a cat owner myself, I’m skilled at recognizing subtle cues that may indicate their needs or moods. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. As a full-time student, I’ve mastered the art of balancing responsibilities, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being of animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s feeding, playing, or providing companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine, ensuring they receive attention and care when they need it. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me—it’s a passion I make time for every day, even amidst my busy academic life. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them. In my home, I ensure the space is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration. I maintain a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, playtime, and quiet time to keep pets happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect and follow their established routines to provide consistency for their pets. I take care to keep the space clean and secure, ensuring their pet feels at ease while maintaining the familiar surroundings they’re used to. Whether it’s walks, feeding, litter box maintenance, or administering medications, I provide attentive care tailored to their specific needs. In both settings, communication with the pet owner is key—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give peace of mind and ensure trust.

I have been trained in various forms of animal enrichment, food management, and know how to notice problems with animals mental and physical well being.

“Hannah was amazing! We had to leave our 3 dogs for 4 1/2 days to go on job interviews out of state and she took such amazing care of them. With 3 dogs and one of them being 14 with a knee injury we couldn’t find a place to board them and were highly anxious about leaving them. Our dogs are our babies and she treated them so wonderfully. They were happy, healthy, and well loved during our absence! The check in photos and report cards on each visit were so appreciated. If we’re able to stay in the area we’d definitely book her again for any pup-related needs! Thank you Hannah!”

About: I grew up with dogs from birth to age 20 where I would help feed, play with, take on walks and runs, bring to the vet, dog parks, and dog beaches. From age 20-25 I would dog sit my neighbors and friends dogs and they would rely on me for walking, feeding, playing fetch, and overnight stays! With my current season of life, I am working from home so with that said, I will have more time for exercise and hiking so if your dog enjoys being outside i’m sure we would be a great fit! I am available to do walks, hikes, playing fetch, feeding, bathroom, and check ins! I am not available to have dogs at my home or do overnights at the moment.
