“Francis was so happy at Erin’s home, he wasn’t ready to leave when I came to get him! Erin was quick to respond to all of my messages and made me feel like Francis was in great hands. I’m so happy to see him this way and I’ll definitely be using Erin again!”

“Elexis was wonderful with Synna. She was kind, responsive, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. Synna was well cared for, and I felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone needing a reliable sitter.”

“He was great! 10/10 recommend! I could trust him with my crazy hyper Doberman and she felt right at home. He kept her updated and spent so much time with her. Will definitely use again.”

“Kathy is truly amazing! My hound dog is not like other dogs and needs a lot of reassurance, love and space to feel space! Kathy provides just that environment. She responded to me promptly each time I check in on keepsake and made sure he was happy and well cared for! I can’t thank her or recommend her enough!”

“Andrew is wonderful to work with. He sent pictures of Rosie settling in and kept me posted on everything. I know Rosie enjoyed playing with the other dogs and getting to romp around in the fenced in back yard. I'll definately board Rosie with Andrew in the future.”

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from farm animals to household pets, including seniors and puppies/kittens. I’ve been a foster with Young-Williams Animal Center since 2019 and love providing a safe, happy home for animals who make our lives richer and more loving. I currently work an 8:30 AM–5:00 PM job with a one-hour lunch break and live just five minutes from the office. I also work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me added flexibility. I have a spare bedroom in my condo, and the space I provide depends on the animal’s size. For kittens, I often use the spare bathroom, keeping them warm with food, water, and a litter box nearby. For dogs, I set up their pen in the spare room with all their supplies. I also have a large fenced-in back patio where dogs can go outside, play, and run safely.
“Our Barton boy enjoyed every second of being there!! We received picture and video updates the whole time away and could really feel the love they poured into him. You can tell he misses his new friends so much already! 🖤”

“Katherine is amazing!! She took care of my dog over the weekend and kept me updated with pictures and brief messages. I know Kida was in good hands and highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Briggs had an amazing time with Allyson and Tyler! They kept me updated throughout the days with texts and pictures. Will be using them again anytime I’m out of town.”

“Jenny did a great job taking care of my dog and my friend's dogs. Her demeanor is very calm and loving, puts the pups at ease. And she was happy to give pills and follow instructions for special diets. Very pleased and would book with her again.”
“Mary was very professional and kind! She checked in with me everyday with photos and updates on how my dog was doing. She was easy to get into contact and fast to respond. Great dog sitter!”

“Viviana not only is a great caregiver for your dog but has an amazing property so that your dog can go outside and have plenty of room to run she sent daily pictures and videos of our dog having a great time I highly recommend her and will absolutely use her again”

“Sallie was amazing! Penny was very happy staying with her. She got lots of walking and play time and snuggles at night. Sallie was very responsive and flexible and sent lots of photos and videos. We definitely will plan on future stays with her!”

“Bridget took great care of my dog Licorice. She gave her medication as scheduled and kept me updated on how Licorice was doing and sent me some great pics. I really appreciate that she takes only 1 dog at a time, and her 2 dogs are very friendly and got along great with Licorice.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Knoxville
We cannot say enough good things about Joseph! He watched our dog, Shyanne, for several days and was absolutely wonderful. He was incredibly communicative throughout her stay and sent us photos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our sweet girl was happy and being well cared for. We recently moved to Knoxville, and this was our very first time using Rover, so we weren’t quite sure what to expect. We feel incredibly lucky that we found Joseph! He took amazing care of Shyanne, kept us updated, and made the entire experience so easy and stress-free. We’re already looking at our calendar to figure out when we can book with him again. We would absolutely recommend Joseph to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely wonderful with their pets. Shyanne will definitely be back!

Here’s a warmer and more polished version: Sallie was the best sitter we’ve ever had on Rover! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures and thoughtful messages about how Yumi was doing, how she was eating, and even shared her favorite spots around her place. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Yumi was in such caring hands. We highly recommend Sallie to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our baby!

Bridget took great care of my dog Licorice. She gave her medication as scheduled and kept me updated on how Licorice was doing and sent me some great pics. I really appreciate that she takes only 1 dog at a time, and her 2 dogs are very friendly and got along great with Licorice.

Kasra is the best Rover I have ever had. By far! He was kind, communicative, and went above and beyond for our dog throughout the stay. Our dog fell ill during the stay, and he handled the situation with positivity and willingness to help our dog feel better. He will definitely be our go-to Rover from now on. Thank you Kasra!

I was in need of a dog sitter extremely last minute, and Christa came through! She had great, timely communication and made me feel completely at ease. My dog absolutely enjoyed his time with her — she sent me pictures and cared for my fur baby as if he were her own. I really appreciate her kindness and reliability. I wish I lived in the area because she would definitely be my go-to sitter every time!

Caroline was a fantastic sitter! She was thoughtful and very thorough in accommodating all preferences and needs. She provided a sufficient frequency of communication during Clementine's stay. Caroline provided a welcoming and comfortable environment, and Clementine loved staying with her.
