About: I grew up with animals, so I learned how to care for them at a young age. My sister worked with a dog training company and often employed my help. Whatever your furball needs, I am the girl! I am a college student who is going to be home for summer break, and I’m looking for a fun way to earn some cash. I will have a lot of free time this summer, so I am excited to get to spend it with animals! I have cared animals of all types (horses, chickens,etc) so there’s nothing new under the sun for me. If you prefer your animal to be crated or in the backyard while I’m away, I have no problem with that. I pride myself on being flexible and adaptable.

Stephanie walked our black lab Hank without any issues. Great communication and knew when he did not like the rain and wanted to go back inside. She stayed with him in the house for a few minutes as well. Will definitely let her walk him again!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life and have hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Growing up with pets, I learned early on the importance of providing consistent care, attention, exercise, and companionship. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve regularly helped friends, neighbors, and family members by pet sitting and caring for their dogs and cats. My experience includes working with puppies and kittens, senior pets, sick animals requiring extra attention, untrained dogs, and dogs with behavioral challenges or aggression. I understand that every pet has unique needs and I take the time to build trust while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering basic care, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am reliable, patient, attentive, and committed to giving pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. I work a flexible and non demanding remote job, giving me plenty of time throughout the day to provide attentive pet care. I can accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication administration, and lots of companionship to ensure pets feel comfortable and cared for. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. I make sure pets have constant access to fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and enrichment. I have experience caring for pets of different ages, temperaments, and needs, including senior pets, sick animals, untrained dogs, and dogs with behavioral challenges. I always take the time to build trust with each pet and monitor them closely to ensure they are safe and comfortable. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are receiving excellent care while they are away.

About: Hi! I’m a former vet tech who loves caring for dogs of all kinds. Since I work from home most of the week, I have lots of flexibility for long walks, quick potty breaks, dog-park fetch sessions, or trips around town. I’m currently without my own dog, so I can’t wait to enjoy some quality companionship with yours! Especially love the big, older dogs but I’m also happy to help with younger pups! I work from home part of the week and I am home during the weekends so I’m happy to spend lots of quality time with your furry friend! I also have neighbors who work from home so if there’s ever anything needed when I am at the office, there will always be help available. In my home, depending on what you do at your home, I am happy to have the dog in a crate or free range. I also have a large patio so we can enjoy some sunshine time together as well. My complex does have a dog park and we live next to a walking trail so outside time will not be an issue however if your dog loves just snuggling and staying indoors. I am fine with that vibe as well.

About: I have owned pets of all ages- from puppies to senior dogs. I grew up helping family friends care for shelter dogs prior to adoption including feeding, walking and playing with them. I am a student at the University of Tennessee working at the TRECS and taking classes this summer. Aside from school and work, my schedule is extremely flexible and I am willing to accommodate for whatever hours are needed. I always ensure that the home is in the same condition as when I first arrived. I love spending time with dogs and will stay as long as needed for them to feel comfortable while their family is away.

About: Hi, I’m Danner. I love animals and have experience pet sitting for family friends, caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and anxious dogs, and I understand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and trustworthy looking after your furry family members. I personally know how valuable it is to have a sitter you can count on. I use Rover myself and appreciate the peace of mind that comes from knowing someone loyal and caring is taking care of my own dog. I strive to provide that same comfort and trust to every client I work with. I have several hundred hours volunteering in the community (Knoxville), which helped me develop strong responsibility, attention to detail, and the ability to stay calm in stressful situations. I bring that same dedication and care into every pet-sitting opportunity. My availability is open, and I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and updates so you can feel confident your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and needs. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and a few hours of companionship, and I’m also open to overnight stays in a clean and comfortable home. I typically work during the day for about 7 hours, usually from 6 AM–1 PM or 8 AM–3 PM, but I’m happy to stop by before and after work to make sure your pets get the care, attention, and love they need. I’m respectful of your home, your instructions, and your pet’s boundaries. My experience has taught me the importance of being responsible, observant, and prepared, especially in situations where someone is depending on me. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, cared for, and getting plenty of love while you’re away. P.s - MY dog is a RUNNER so don’t worry I know how to make sure they stay inside.

About: 2+ years of experience in kennel and veterinary settings- working with both cats and dogs with a variety of temperaments and ensuring their best experience while boarding! Dog and cat sitting experience for 10+ friends and family members countless times- comfortable with talks and indoor enrichment activities regardless of species. I currently work part-time during weekends, meaning I'm usually free Monday-Friday to play with and walked pups and cats whenever they need it! With my years of experience working with vet clinics and adjacent boarding facilities, I am comfortable working with animals with a variety of sizes and temperaments. I am more than comfortable to play inside, take dogs (or cats, if you want) on long walks, play outside, and monitor behavior to ensure beloved pets remain safe and healthy in the heat of summer.

Liza was an absolute gem during our first encounter! Despite the pouring rain and dreadful weather, she took my dog Luna on a two-hour walk through Greenwich Village. Liza's commitment and care for Luna was so evident. When Luna returned, she was clearly well-exercised and content, albeit very wet. I can't thank Liza enough for her outstanding service and will undoubtedly be booking her again for future walks. Five stars for Liza - a fantastic dog walker and caregiver!

About: I have a bit of experience taking care of large and small dogs. Friends have let me help them walk, and feed their loving pets while away. I am currently a college student at the University of Tennessee Knoxville. I am available on the weekends and Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the week. I have a fenced in yard at home for my large dog at home. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I also love taking my fur baby at home on lots of walks!

About: I've always been dedicated to my pets growing up, and loved to meet with other's pets. While I'm relatively new to professional pet care, I've watched my family and friends' pets since my youth! I'm dedicated to communicating with pet parents while I care for their pets to make sure they have the best experience possible. I have experience administering oral (dogs) and transdermal/ear medications (cats). My schedule is currently open and flexible! I am a recent UTK grad, and although I have completed my studies as a college student, I am continuing work on one of my projects, and most of my work is from the computer, and am also partaking in a field internship a couple days out of the week. I am taking a break from other forms of work, so I'm very available to help you with your petsitting needs. I am a morning person and would work well with 'early bird' pets, but can be flexible if a pet needs a late night let out, medication, or other attention during late night hours. I share my house with roommates and their pets, so I'd prefer to watch your pet in your home unless I've gotten to know and built trust with your pet over several visits. I enjoy spending quality time with pets, including time together on the couch watching a show, napping together, or going out for strolls or to the park to relax outside.

Lyla was great, took care of everything and followed pet care instructions to the letter. Charlie seems happy, healthy and well rested when I got home, didn't seem stressed at all and looked like he was enjoying his walks. Fish look perfect, not overfed! On the minute updates of Charlie's actions and potty break info, pictures with each update. 10/10 will hire again
