About: I've been surrounded by animals my entire life—dogs, cats, and everything in between—so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I currently have a 4-year-old chocolate lab named Stokely Mae, and she's truly my best friend. I’ve raised her since she was just 7 weeks old and trained her every step of the way—from basic commands to leash manners and socializing with other animals. Every day, I manage a household with four large dogs (three Labs and one Husky), each with their own personalities and needs. I handle their feeding schedules (three times a day), including different portions and diets, with consistency and care. Whether it's high-energy playtime, calm walks, or gentle attention for older dogs, I adapt to meet each pet’s unique needs. I treat every animal like family and always aim to create a safe, loving environment where pets feel secure and happy. I'm a teacher, so my summer schedule is wide open—perfect for giving your pets the attention they deserve! During the school year, I’m available for weekend care and occasional evenings. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and I love being able to spend my free time with animals. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I can be flexible and reliable when you need a helping hand. Your pets safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I’m attentive to each pet’s routine and needs—whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, managing medications, or providing a calm, secure environment. I take the time to earn each pet’s trust with patience, gentle handling, and lots of positive reinforcement. In your home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I make sure your pet feels safe and loved while keeping their surroundings tidy and stress-free. I’m always happy to provide updates and photos, so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands.

About: I helped open a doggy daycare in Boston, MA! I have worked in the industry since 2020 primarily as an operations manager and an attendant! Working with dogs is amazing and I love it so much! I have experience with overnights, daycare, drop in’s and walks! Fairly strong so bring on the biggest and largest dogs! I work in a college setting so summer time I’m usually completely free! I build my schedule around you! My schedule will always be updated on my profile! What ever you are looking for! I have experience with all different types of dogs and understand each one have different needs! If they are more energetic or just want to snuggle it’s fine with me! We will talk about your dogs specific needs and make sure they are met!

About: Caroline (Beverly is my first name) here!!My entire life we have always had pets around. I have cared for dogs small and large. I have experienced with many animals from cats to goats. I love animals and have a hard time not referring to them as people. My dog is pretty convinced he is a person not a dog.I have worked with puppies and also older dogs. I help care and walk my family and friends animals. I have experience with staying overnight and also just drop ins or day walking. I really care for the animals and love each personality they each have. I love to take an animal on car rides or a run on the road. If a pet is in need of bathing I have experience washing both large and small dogs. My dog is with me part time and with my mother other times but he is a gentle giant and friendly with all other animals. I also have chickens that stay in their coop. I am currently working full time. My hours and days can vary but there are times in my day that I am able to go home and care for pets at home. I typically work 5 8 hour days. On my off days I would be available to be home all day to care for the fur babies. Although I do not have a fenced in yard I do have a pet friendly road that I can walk the pets on. I also have several porches (one being screened in) that will allow pets to enjoy leash free time outside. I would be available to walk your pet as little or as much as they require. I do have yard space to walk a pet as well. I also have the ability to crate your dog if that is your preference.

“Robert was amazing! He helped me at the last minute with my two dogs. He was extremely good with my boys, and they're not easy to deal with. I highly recommend Robert!!”

“She is amazing. It was a very last minute dog walk and she was more then willing to help out. My dog was able to pee and poo and let out some energy. She was understanding of some confusing things and helped out with supplying some fresh water to my dog. I am definitely rebooking her again!”

“First experience with Rover. Emma was great. On time, long walks, pictures, notes. Would definitely use Rover and Emma again”

About: Hi I’m Eliza! I moved to beautiful Knoxville, TN almost 2 years ago from Utah. I am a huge country girl and I love being outdoors exploring and going on fun adventures, hikes, and discovering beautiful places! I have a 4 year old pit bull/cane corso Named Bullet who loves to play with other dogs and take long naps. He is trained to be an emotional support dog so I will have to bring him everywhere I go, no exceptions. I always try to take my dog for a 30 min walk every day to get him the exercise he needs after being in a apartment all day. I always make sure to schedule play time for my pet and pets that I watch to ensure in creating a bond and getting exercise into their day if I am not able to take them for a walk.

About: I have been around animals my entire life! There was never a time I didn’t have a let of some kind. I was always helping neighbors and family members with their animals. I have worked at dog training facilities where we also had doggy daycare. I’ve worked many years at vet offices as well. Therefore my experience with pets with medical needs gives me the knowledge of taking care of your fur baby who may need a little extra attention. A little bit about my day to day schedule so you have a heads up: Mondays I am off work, T-Th 8-5 and Fridays 7:30-3. My husband gets home before me most days so sometimes he is able to help out with potty breaks therefore it is very important that your pet be ok with men. I have a large unfenced yard where your babies can enjoy running while attached to a long leash. They will get to roam around in the home as long as they are potty trained and dog friendly, as I have a dog that loves to meet new friends. I have a room that is a dedicated dog room where crates are kept for the dogs to be safely while I am away. YOUR PET MUST BE CRATE TRAINED! Please bring a crate for each dog you are boarding with me unless prior arrangements have been made!

About: First I always get a feel for the animals’ daily routine with their owner. I like the pets to feel safe and secure with me so I never stray far from their established routines. I always pick up after myself and everything is always where you left it. I’m a hotel manager so with the exception of my work shifts I make spending time with your pets my first priority. I factor in gas into my prices so I’m always able to make sure your pets are happy and well fed! I do roll call when entering and exiting the front door. I always make sure items are out of reach for the animals while I’m out of the home. I can always send the owner updates like pictures or videos throughout the stay. :)

About: 10 years of experience with dogs. Experience with wide range of dogs from age and health. Will take care of your dog, your way. Understanding the importance of continuing any training maintained at home. Flexible schedule will allow full time attention to each dog as well as cater to your busy schedule, sensitive to last minute changes and scheduling. While I do not have a dog of my own, I know how important the bond is and will do my best to care for them and will do it with any special instructions provided.

About: Hi there, I'm Ash! Large Fenced in yard! 😀 First and foremost - I take pride in being a Fear Free Certified Professional. What that means is that I took a pledge (after the necessary courses and tests of course) to alleviate fear, anxiety and stress when it comes to pet care. I have been in the Knoxville area for 17 years now. I have owned and cared for many animals. Anyone who knows me knows I'm an animal lover. I graduated high school in 2007 and landed my first job at a veterinary clinic a few months later. In 2008, I enrolled in school for medical assisting and completed my degree in 2010. I then decided that I love animals way more than humans. 😉 I am experienced with handling all breeds and sizes and trained to deal with any situations that may or may not occur. I live in a quiet and safe subdivision. Walks, cuddles and play time are free here! 😁 I currently work at an animal hospital however, I do not work long hours so I will be home with your baby every day. They will get PLENTY of potty breaks and play time. Effective communication is key! We will be able to discuss the needs of your baby. I do have 2 friendly dogs to keep your baby company. If they need to be seperate, that is not a problem. I can provide a kennel if needed as well.

About: I have three dogs, a peekapoo, chihuahua, and golden retriever. I have quite the personalities in my house. I have a fenced in back yard, the biggest crate you can buy, and puppy pads available if your dog needs them. I also live in a nice subdivision if your dog needs to be walked. I do allow dogs on the couches and bed but I also have dog beds in every room. Available 7 days a week. I work evenings so your dog will be let out in the mornings, early evenings, and at night. I can also feed them twice a day, and if they are free roaming they will have access to water all day. I have a fenced in yard, live in a large subdivision if your dog needs to be walked, and a large crate. I have no issues with walking several dogs at a time as well.

“Scout took up to Lexie as soon as she walked in the door! Prompt arrival and handle my big guy with ease. Very nice person and I look forward to using Lexie again in the near future.”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and a bunch of kids for YEARS. Your pets will get all of the love just like at home. I currently work part time so I have plenty of free time to keep your fur babies. Most days I work from home so they will never be left for longer than necessary. I have a large home with a big yard. I have long runner leashes to make sure they get enough safe outdoor time. We also have 2 very dog/cat friendly cats to keep them company. My kitties can be separated if necessary too. I have a ton of experience with many breeds, pit bulls are my absolute favorite though! Kennels are not mandatory.

About: I have had all kinds of pets that I've taken care of since I was a child. I've animal sat, house sat, check ins, daily walks for friends, family and others by word of mouth. I know how important pets are to you and your family, and will treat them as my own! I work from home so I am able to leave for periods of time to be able to do drop ins and walks for your pets. I care for any pet like they are my own, if the owner has specific instructions, I follow what is advised 100% to keep your animal closest to their normal routine as possible.

“She’s a very good walker and did a lot for my puppy. I’m very grateful for the great service and flexibility.”

About: Positive reinforcement, patience, perspective, and low expectations are a recipe for understanding our little ones. I've lived with cats and dogs my entire life and am confident in meeting their needs. I currently have two cats: Mickey for 11 years and Minnie for 6 years. Minnie being blind has taught me patience and understanding and it's definitely made my daily life richer. My little ones, like yours, are unique. Minnie will only use the litter box after I clean it every morning and Mickey with meow when he wants the water replaced. Any pet parents know that every little one has a personality and it's only right to show up for them, just lie we would with "real" children! 😉

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family members and friends. I’ve bathed, walked, administered medications, lots of cuddles, and have stayed over night to watch the dogs. I am currently working full time, but I am able to rearrange my schedule to accommodate the hours you are needing! I am free most days after 4 pm. Your animals safety is the most important aspect! I always make sure any of the animals that I take care of are able to trust me.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I got my first dog at age 8! I’ve cared for my own as well as family and friends. I think of them as true family members. I have experience giving dogs injections/medications. I’ll also be available to play, feed, walk, take outside, and of course give all the treaties :) I’m an RN! I spend most of my off time with my dogs or other dogs <3 my husband also is home most days while in school and helps me with the dogs while I’m away. We’re a team! I have a fenced in backyard. It is rather small but allows our little corgi to freely roam off the leash. We have a little patio back there and often when it’s warm will sit outside and play with the dog. We allow our dog to be out and about in the home provided she is clean. She sleeps with us in the bed. We allow other dogs to stay out in the home to sleep if that is preferred and they are housetrained. If not, we do have a crate on hand we can use if away/sleeping. We have a couple neighborhoods nearby we do walk in.
