“Skylar is great! She watched our two dogs for 3 nights and took great care of them and our house. She sent photos every day, and the pups were super calm when we came home. They got tons of playtime, walks and cuddles. We would book Skylar again in a heartbeat!”

“We loved getting all the pictures and videos. It was clear that our babies were being well loved in our absence. Joy was very respectful of our home and wishes. Jack and Callie can't wait to have Auntie Joy come back!”


About: I have always had a deep love for all animals but especially dogs and cats! I’ve had a dog (beagle mix) for 12 years and a cat for 5. I often pet sit for friends and family when they’re out of town which includes feeding, walking, playing, and making sure their animals feel as comfortable as possible while their person is away from home. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Whether your pet is active or naps all day, I will treat them like my own and make sure they get all the love and care they need! Additionally- I understand how important communication is (I’m a Communication major!) and will keep you updated with lots of pictures and videos! I’m available for drop in visits, walks, and sitting throughout the week. I’m reliable and will always shows up on time. I’m more than happy to accommodate to your pets schedule and needs! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I will ensure your pet is always in a clean, secure, and calm environment along with following any and all instructions provided. I will never leave pets unattended in any unsafe situation. Additionally, I will treat your home with the upmost respect and leave everything as I found it. I also make sure to provide consistent updates (pictures and videos) of your pet while your away to ensure your loved one is well taken care of!
“Leanne was the best sitter we could have asked for. Our travels plans got messed up and the pups had some medical issues pop up and she kept us so informed and the dogs taken care of. She absolutely went above and beyond for them, and made sure they got plenty of exercise as well!”


“Stephanie was just what we needed for a quick get away. She have consistent updates and not too much or not too little communication. Professional and courteous! Thank you!”


“Catherine was wonderful! It was such a last minute booking, but she responded so quickly. It was a genuine relief to have her come and look after my dog and cat on such short notice. Both my dog and cat are of geriatric age and have differing needs with both having different medical conditions. She listened to our concerns and took our pet care instructions seriously. She comforted my dog who has severe separation anxiety and somehow managed to persuade my cat with princess-like standards to eat her entire can of cat food. Throughout the night, she responded quickly and sent pictures and updates. I would definitely book with her again the next time I am traveling with my pets in the Knoxville or Gatlinburg region.”

“Taylor did an amazing job watching all our animals! I got a lot of updates and when we came back, our animals were happy and the house was immaculate! We will definitely be using him again to house sit for us!”

“Leah was absolutely wonderful with my pup and we are very pleased we booked her. I was very happy with the wonderful communication both before and during the stay. Great experience, would definitely recommend.”


About: I've had a love for animals since I was a toddler. Growing up, I use to visit my grandparents place and play with their dogs. And even though I liked being around animals in general, dogs were always my favorite to be around. And then eventually, I started having dogs of my own and learned how to take care of them. At the moment, I'm currently working part-time but am always looking to pet sit for extra income. I'm available throughout most of the week for drop-in visits and occasional overnight house sitting throughout summer breaks and holidays. I always clean up after myself when in the company of other peoples homes. And while looking after your fur babies in your home, I will make sure to clean up after them as well. Another thing that's important for me when caring for your pets is knowing their needs. This is because I want to make sure while sitting that I'm caring for your pets in the absolute best way I can. That they will be loved and cared well for as if they were my own.
“Ysalys was absolutely amazing. She was very punctual arriving on time. Our pets loved her so much. She was extremely professional and definitely believes in integrity how she represents herself. I would highly recommend Ysalys to anyone looking for a responsible and professional pet sitter. We most definitely use Ysalys again in the future for our pet sitting needs.”

“Angela is wonderful! My dog just loves her and I always know that Angela will take care of her. I have booked her several times and plan to continue whenever I have to travel. Angela is a great communicator and someone I trust.”

“Helena took great care of my dog and gave her lots of love! She went above and beyond giving her walks and playing with her while we were gone, and took good care of the house too. Would book her again!”

“Tate was so wonderful and the animals adored him. Great with communicating and was very respectful and took great care of our home as well. We will definitely have Tate back again.”


“Ian was SO incredibly kind. I have a Great Dane that is very needy & also very emotional. Ian made him feel like nothing changed when we left. Also the house looked like we never left when we returned. I cannot recommend him enough!!”

Taylor was SO incredible in caring for our house and our five kitties. Always sending pictures, and video, and he left the whole looking like new. We have a blind kitty who needs meds every day and a little extra attention, and Taylor did SUCH a good job playing with her, and making sure she was in tip top shape. I will GLADLY call upon Taylor again in the future for our house sitting needs, and you should too!
Cayli did a fantastic job with my very nervous/anxious pup who won’t even let strangers pet her until she’s at least somewhat familiar with them. I wrote down detailed instructions about the best way to handle things with my dog and they were buddies in no time! Cayli was very responsive to any of my requests or questions, checked in often to let me know how things were going, and was very respectful of my things in my home. She even cleaned up before she left! Additionally she took care of my cat and two geckos with zero problems. I highly recommend her!
Literally the best! I recently moved to Knoxville and brought a very anxious pup with me. I was really worried about leaving him while I had to travel for a weekend (especially on 4th of July weekend, he’s terrified of fireworks). Anna went above and beyond to reassure me of his wellbeing and sent a plethora of pictures! She also watched my cat too (she is pretty self sufficient hehe) and Anna even made sure to send pictures of her as well! Will definitely be booking again very soon!

Helena is just the best! This was the first time leaving my little fellow since moving and I could not have asked for a better experience! Receiving updates, pictures, and videos daily helped so much! When I got home, he was doing good and the house was clean, sheets washed, and straightened. I will definitely be using Helena!

Ethan was a great communicator. I adopted a rescue earlier this year who's very skittish with strangers. Ethan communicated behaviors and what he did, which was appropriate. Poor pups didn't get a walk because he wouldn't let Ethan put a leash on him. This dog has decided I'm his person and he's not taking chances! But he wasn't traumatized upon my return so I know Ethan's energy was a good match. My house is also under contract and Ethan was able to adapt to changing demands to accommodate.

My little man Max is not an easy job. Megan rose to the challenge and did what was necessary to calm him. He is not one to easily take meds. Megan was able to get it done. We will use Megan again. Thank you Megan for taking the extra time to take care of him. Inky the cat is happy too.

We just recently moved to Knoxville and had been a little anxious about finding a new dog sitter. Courtney was such a great sitter to our two sweet pups while we were on vacation. We got a lot of picture and message updates throughout our trip. She also made sure the girls were cared for up until we got home when we were running behind due to traffic! We will definitely be hiring again in the future ☺️

Stephanie was great taking care of pets while she was housesitting. She followed our instructions well and went above and beyond with pet care. She was even able make additional last minute visit to take care of our pets due to our flight getting delayed for 6 hours. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who may need her service.

Abby watched our 11 year old dog, Oliver, while we travelled internationally. She was very conscientious and respectful of our home and took wonderful care of Oliver. It is so nice to be able to travel and not worry about leaving your pet and home. We will definitely use Abby again and recommend her highly.
