About: I have two dogs, one is three and one is six months. I adore them and spoil them daily. My oldest has very high energy so I am used to getting the energy out! They love going swimming at the lake as well! Though we do not have a fenced in yard, they go for daily walks and have fun enrichment activities inside. I am currently in college, but I am available Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays to walk your dogs! I am also available to board your dog anytime! I am home pretty much all day everyday except for my hour class I have to attend Monday and Wednesday. I have a pretty set routine with my dogs, as I wake up early (6am) to let them both out, and again around 9. I am very attentive with my dogs, as I would be with yours! I make sure they are comfortable and have a nice place to lay and have food and water at their access. If they need to go out, I’m on it! I imagine how my dogs would feel if my dogs were going to a new place, and want to make them feel as loved and comfortable as possible, as new environments can be scary.

About: I’m experienced in walking and playing with dogs in the evening. Don’t stress about leaving a dog in my care. They will be in excellent care and thoroughly entertained. I’m available after 5:30pm Monday thru Thursday. I have more flexibility on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I am a part-timer on Rover. I can walk, fed, and entertain your pet to make sure they are satisfied. My home is unfortunately not suitable for boarding pets on the regular. I am able to stay with the pet overnight at their home upon request.

About: Since I was a teen, I've always been the go-to person asked to pet sit for people when they went on vacation. I've done it for 10+ years. I recently graduated from law school in May, and I am currently studying for the BAR. I would love to make some money on the side, caring for your special guys and girls! Currently, I have full availability because my sole focus is studying for the BAR. So I can make myself available at any time day or night! I love animals, and I recognize how much they crave attention, especially when they're missing their owner. I would love to provide that necessary attention in your absence. I will make sure that your place is the same as it was when I got there. With a fresh litter box cleaning for cats.

About: As a dedicated animal lover, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I provide plenty of attention, cuddles, exercise, and play throughout the day. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and secure while giving you peace of mind through regular updates and photos. My schedule allows me plenty of time to provide attentive, personalized care for your pets. I am fully available 7 days a week for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and pet sitting. I can sit for your pets up to 7 days a week if needed. I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, feeding, and affection they need. I am committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I follow each pet’s regular feeding, potty, and sleep schedule to help them feel comfortable and at ease. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routine and ensure their pets receive consistent care in a familiar environment. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, medication administration if needed, and plenty of companionship. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. I am also a future vet, so your babies are in great hands 🙂

About: I’ve had a dog and cat for the past 5 years and love them!! I love running errands & being there for you and your pets would be my pleasure! I teach Monday and Friday and serve a few weekends. I can do evening runs, and the weekends are pretty flexible for me to walk. I have the softest spot for any animal! I’ve had birds, rabbits, hamsters, 2 dogs, a cat. I wish I could have more but my corgi is antisocial.

About: I grew up in a family of dog lovers and have lived with and cared for 1 to 3 dogs my entire life! I have cared for dogs of varying breeds ranging from puppies and small dogs all the way to a 150+ pound Great Dane. I have two pups: an extremely friendly almost 3 year old re-homed golden doodle and a rambunctious 10 month old mixed breed rescue. I have lived with and/or cared for a Great Dane, husky/malamute, boxer, pitbull mixes, chow chow mix, among many others. I’ve dealt with resource guarding, have experience with senior care, and am excellent with basic command training. I would love to meet your pups and help make their lives even more enriching! I am currently doing freelance work from home as well as working at a restaurant. My schedule varies a bit week to week, but I usually have plenty of time for drop in visits and walks! I am happy to come to your home and follow whatever routine works for your furry friend. I can take dogs on walks in nearby parks or drive them somewhere if they’re comfortable in cars!

About: I have been watching dogs for 6 years at this point for a variety of family’s in the Knoxville area! I grew up with pets in my house. Some of my fondest memories is playing with my pups Finn and George. I also love going on walks with a furry companions. My cat’s names are Luna and Jasper and we love to cuddle! My furry friends are my world and I will treat your like my own! I am a college student who only has class 3x a week and I work an internship from home! This allows me to spend a great deal of my time with your furry friends! I will treat their animals as my own. I know that’s what I would want for my babies! They will have my full attention and get all the play time and cuddles!

About: (PSA - I’m married! So if you don’t mind a couple watching your pets, we’ll be more than happy to serve you! The below agreement will still apply, of course; there’s just a second set of hands. I can also watch your home and pets solo if that’s what you prefer. 🥰) 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 32 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 and freelance marketer, 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 helps a ton. That way, you have utmost peace of mind that your home and pet(s) are receiving the best care!

About: In 2020 me and my family started fostering dogs. In that time we fostered over 10 and made sure they got to go to good homes! In that time we also ended up adopting one of the dogs as well. Since then I have always loved being around them. I am an active person and like to be outside and go on walks/runs. I am currently a senior at the University of Tennessee. I would be able to fit in a pet care schedule well with my time. I currently only have one class on Monday and Wednesday and I have 3 on Tuesday and Thursday leaving my fridays wide open. Even without a pet right now I go on 2 walks/runs a day so bringing along a buddy to do so would be no problem! I know for pets especially being around a new person can be very stressful so I always think it is a good idea to meet the dog before actually agreeing to pet sit or talk it on walks to make sure that we are familiar with each other.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and am experienced taking care of all sizes, ages, and stages. Personally, I have owned and loved terrier abd poodle mixes (in childhood), and husky, Pyrenees, border collies, and Australian Shepherds. Currently, I have one dog, a very sweet border collie. I also have ducks and chickens (in a separate fenced area from dogs). My mom own’s labradors that I also adore. I’ve cared for my dogs through all of the stages of life, and am happy to handle meds and specialized care if needed. I’m a nurse, and work part time and prn between two different jobs! But I only open my schedule up for pet care on my days off when I’m home at all times. I have 3 acres and a yard that is double fenced (front and back fenced separately). I have one dog at home (female spayed border collie) as well as chickens and ducks that will be away from boarding pets. We also have lots of trails and exercise options nearby.

About: Been pet sitting since I was in high school for all sorts of dogs and cats, and currently working in a clinic as a vet assistant. Currently a university student and working part time, most of my availability is on weekends or on evenings but I am able to make time! I love to keep animals company and love on them, play with them, whatever they need! I am comfortable with large and small dogs, old or young, and cats as well!!

“Lauren is fantastic with my little poodle girl who absolutely adores her! Lauren has proven over and over to be reliable, kind, and goes above and beyond when my animals are in her care. So thankful to have found her.”

About: I’ve grown up always having a dog and cats and have always played a huge role in there lives. I love animals and am always a top pick for dog sitting from my friends. Pets deserve a vacation too! I have a job currently in the mornings but have a break after 4 hours and am able to take off if needed. I find dog sitting to be a very fun extra job when I’m doing will always be the priority. I will always do as the owner wishes and can even provide extra services like hiking and other fun activities for the pet. I always make sure the animal receives the attention it needs.

About: I have taken care of many fur babies since I was 6 years old. Most of the family animals have had health issues that has taught me how to administer medication, give baths, clip nails, and more. Cat and dog friendly! I am available everyday of the week except Sunday 11am-11pm! I can also stay in home over nights upon request. Sundays reserved for sittings only. I currently have two cats who are very shy so I do not offer over night stays in my own home. However, I am more than happy to do over nights in the clients home.

I love all the fur babies out there and am excited for them to love me too!

I am happy to come to your home and am open to providing services such as light cleaning and small repairs for an additional fee, upon request.

About: I have a handful cats, but I also love dogs. Growing up with 5 dogs was my favorite part of life. I’ve been watching after pets since I was 13. I started watching my grandmas dog when she travelled. Then I watched my neighbors cat. It quickly escalated to watching friends and more neighbors. I then used Facebook market place for a while and now am using rover! Taking care of your pet is my first priority. I am available any day any time. I currently work from home and run my own schedule. I will make sure your pet is well loved and looked after. Nothing brings me more joy than getting to spend time playing with a cat or dog. If your pet needs some extra attention, I’d be happy to help!
