About: I normally take my neighbor’s dogs on walks and I keep them engage in the walks by introducing them to new locations! I also volunteer at the Knoxville Humane Society and participate in taking dogs on walks as well as reading to them for human exposure and enrichment. I am a college student at UTK but I only have classes two days a week so I should be able to work around what you and your pup needs! I provide loving, attentive care, follow each pet’s routine, offer fresh food and water, maintain cleanliness, provide exercise, and of course, give plenty of affection.

About: Just kidding, I do love a lint roller. Dogs have the kindest souls and should be treated as such. I've had a dog the majority of my life, starting with a Visla, mixed breed bulldog, and a black labrador retriever in our house when I was a child. I have owned two mixed american staffordshire terriers and a golden retriever myself. When I write it all down, it seems like a lot. I've cared for them as puppies, through life, surgeries, and health, and at the end of life. I am gentle and let dogs interact with me on their terms. I am open to caring for all types of dogs. I am a graduate student at the University of Tennessee, so my schedule is very flexible. I also don't get a lot of vacation time, so I'm usually in Knoxville. I can care for pets throughout the day, doing my lab work intermittently. I treat my client's home and pets with the utmost respect. I am there to do the job for which you hired me and nothing else, and you can count on me for it.

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.

About: With 10 years of experience in caring for dogs, I’ve developed an unmatched understanding of canine behavior, health, and happiness. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of sharing my life with some truly special dogs, each of whom has shaped my approach to pet care in unique ways. My journey began with my beloved Sparkles Jane, whose sweet and gentle nature taught me the true meaning of loyalty and companionship. She was more than just a pet; she was a friend, a teacher, and a source of endless love. While Sparkles Jane is no longer with me, the lessons I learned from her continue to guide my care for all dogs I encounter. I’ve also had the pleasure of caring for Patches, whose playful spirit and affectionate personality brought joy to every moment. Through these years, I’ve learned the importance of patience, consistency, and the deep emotional bond that forms between a dog and their caregiver. Now, I’m lucky enough to spend time with my sweet Beau Beau and Chippy, two dogs who continue to hold a special place in my heart. I absolutely love house-sitting for Beau Beau and Chippy, providing them with comfort and companionship whenever I’m back home. Their personalities are a perfect reminder of why I’m so passionate about what I do—every dog is unique, and they all deserve love, attention, and care tailored to their needs. Having lived with dogs my entire life, I understand the importance of building trust and creating a safe, positive environment where dogs feel comfortable and loved. Whether it’s providing extra care for a senior dog or engaging in playful activities with a younger dog, I know how to cater to their individual needs with kindness, expertise, and a lot of love. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares for dogs and has a decade of hands-on experience, I’d be honored to care for your furry family members. With my background, I promise to provide them with the highest level of attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Hello! I'm a passionate pet lover and a dedicated remote worker living in Knoxville with my wonderful wife. With the freedom of a fully remote job, I have the unique ability to work from anywhere in the world, which gives me the flexibility to travel at a moment’s notice and provide pet care when and where it’s needed—day or night. This flexibility makes me the perfect choice for your pet care needs. Whether you need someone to look after your furry family members while you're away for work, vacation, or any other reason, I’m available to provide reliable, loving care. My remote work setup means I can easily adjust my schedule to be there for your pets, ensuring they get the attention and companionship they deserve while you're not around. I understand how important it is to have a trustworthy and responsible person looking after your pets, and with my lifestyle, I can offer that peace of mind. I am committed to giving your pets the care and affection they need, and with my ability to travel anywhere, I can step in and provide exceptional care regardless of the time or place. If you’re looking for someone who has both the experience and flexibility to cater to your pet care needs, I’d love to help. Let’s connect and see how I can make your life easier while providing your pets with top-notch care! As a pet lover with a deep passion for animal care, I treat every pet I look after as if they were my own. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or even bath time, I pour all my love and energy into making sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I understand how much pets mean to their owners, and I’m excited to spend time with your little one, showering them with the care and attention they deserve. I truly believe that pets are more than just animals—they’re family. That’s why I approach every task with the same enthusiasm and dedication I would for my own pets. From getting their favorite treats to ensuring they have plenty of playtime and exercise, I’m here to create a positive and fun experience for your pet, no matter what they enjoy most. Whether it’s a lively walk around the block, a fun game of fetch, or simply cuddling up and relaxing together, I’m always excited to bond with your pet and provide them with companionship and affection. Bath time? No problem! I make sure it’s a gentle, enjoyable experience for your pet, leaving them feeling refreshed and pampered. And when it comes to feeding, I stick to their usual routine and ensure they’re getting the proper nutrition to stay healthy and happy. With my attention to detail, love for animals, and commitment to giving your pets the best care possible, you can trust that they’re in loving hands. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m here to be your pet’s best friend, ensuring they feel cherished and well-cared for every moment they’re with me.

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and have been caring for my own for over 11 years now! Over the years I’ve gained lots of experience with walking, feeding, and playing with dogs. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I am out of state for college but will be home from December 12th to January 20th. During that time I would love to care for as many pets as I can! While I’m not able to host dogs in my home, I’m happy to care for them in yours to make sure they feel comfortable. I will follow any specific routines or instructions you provide!

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.
