“Cyndi saved our last trip as a family before our oldest goes off to college. Our dog care plans fell through and Cyndi was both flexible with our schedule, as well as our large and timid dog. I cannot thank her enough.”
“Judy did an excellent job, she comunicated everyday and sent us pictures of our kitty..Max was a happy camper..we will be using her again. We were very happy with her service! We were extremely nervous of leaving our Max for this long as we never have before but she made of feel right at ease..she was great!!”
“Amy was available last minute for my nervous dog. Sent me photos and kept me updated which I highly appreciate. Will be using Amy again when we go out of town. Thank you for caring for my Mia!”
“Lillie kept me up to date and handled everything with my babies nicely. Even though they acted out she adv me that she was able to keep everything in hand and calm them down. She even went the extra mile to help my one dog eat better when he was scared. I appreciated her extra care while I was away.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats and hamsters for a couple of years first was my family dog, then my cat in college and roommate’s hamster I only work 2-3 days out of the week for only 2 hours and I am free weekends. Which gives me enough time to care for your pets and spend time with them. I can also care for smaller pets like fish or hamsters if needed. In my home,which is my dorm, I feed my cat twice a day and make sure his water bowl is always full and clean out his litter box at the beginning of each day. In case of a fire I grab my cat with his emergency bag and I have also helped my roommate get her hamster out during a fire drill. I always make sure to spend time playing with them as well. For clients I make sure to care for their pets as I would want anyone else to care for mine; providing the food as asked by the client and cleaning after the pet as asked which includes cleaning the litter box or going for walks and playing with the pets.
“Heather was on time, and took good care of our pups while we were at a wedding. We are from Indiana so it was stressful to leave our dogs in a rental for 6+ hours. Heather helped alleviate that stress by coming and taking the dogs for a walk, playing with them, and feeding them during the wedding. I would definitely recommend her services!”
About: I have had pets my entire life. Animals should be respected and loved. I can stop by and walk your dog, feed, and pet and play. If you have cats, I can come scoop the litter, feed and water, pet them and play with their toys with them. I have 4 cats. It was three, but recently a stray kitten begged us for help and so we took him in! I'm happy to meet and befriend your pet. I am quite available. I'm free to help out! Just reach out to me and I will get back to you right away, thank you! I have references on here. I am very respectful of people's pets and homes. I will absolutely do my best! Thank you for choosing me.
About: Growing up, I always had a strong love and admiration for dogs. My parents always had dogs growing up and I am used to being around many different sizes and breeds. I am a server so have a very flexible schedule! I work about four or five hours at a time, so I have plenty of availability to check on your pet and give plenty of potty breaks! I am located in Wears Valley, but am willing to travel to Maryville, Knoxville, Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg! Currently, I do not own any pets as I recently moved into an apartment. Growing up, I was always consistently around dogs and cats. My grandparents owned a farm in Louisville and I often helped care for the animals there. My parents also always had dogs and cats so I am very comfortable and used to taking care of them. I also have pet sit many times for friends and neighbors!
“We came to Bryson City to ride the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad, but didn't want to leave our four Shelties unattended in our RV at the campground. I found Amanda on Rover and contacted her about booking a visit. She was so easy to work with. She came over to our RV the day before her scheduled appointment to meet us and get acquainted with our dogs. On the day of our train trip, she showed up right on sent lots of photos and a complete report on our drugs and her visit. 5 stars for Amanda!”
“She is the best I’ve ever seen and I recommend her to anyone. Now I know where to take Gil when we go to casino. I love visiting this town-Bryson City. It is great. If u want to get anyone to sit or keep ur dog Michelle and Robbie are the best. I feel safe my dog is happy and having a blast.”
About: I've raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life! I'm familiar with them at all stages, ages, and sizes with basic or special needs (medication, extra snuggles, house rules, etc.). I'm also skilled with caring and training pups! My current dog, Duck, was raised and trained using Zac George's inside-out training which enforces positive behavior and builds a strong relationship with your pup. Duck has also experienced some long-term healthcare needs and emergencies, all of which were handled with absolute care, precision, and peace to cause less stress on him. I'm familiar with medication regimens and adapting to an animal's needs. As for cats, I have two of my own that I love dearly! I'm here to provide any care they need as well including snuggles, treats, and playtime. **NOTE OF AVAILABILITY** I'm available all day Sunday-Tuesday for pet care. On Wednesday and Thursdays, I'm unavailable 12:15 - 6:15 due to work, and again I'm unavailable on Fridays 11:15 - 5:15 due to work. I can check in on your pets or walk them anytime before or after! As the owner of a rambunctious pup, I understand the value of rules! If visiting or staying in your home, I'll obey all house rules for myself and your pet. I clean up after myself and your pup as well as crate them, treat them, or whatever else they need.
“Julia was perfect with Maggie. On her first visit, she spent a long time trying to earn Maggie’s trust, and by the end of the three-day sitting, Maggie eagerly waited for her at our doorstep. Even when we got home, Maggie stared at the door waiting for her to come back again. We will call on Julia again in the future without hesitation.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and now take care of four dogs of my own: a lab, a great pyrenees, an Australian shepherd, and an American bulldog. I have experience with puppy care, elderly dogs, and have cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible for home visits or overnight stays as needed. I work part time remotely and stay at home with my infant son. My wife works in education, so I am very available during the summer months when she is home from school. My availability during the week is sometimes limited depending on the length of drive and type of care needed. I am comfortable with the different needs of different dogs and cats. My own dogs have free reign of the house and yard and are well trained, but I am comfortable with any dog whether he or she needs to be crated, walked, or has specific needs or restrictions. I know that day-to-day consistency can be really important when a pet's owner is out of town.

Brooke L.
“You won't find anyone who loves and respects animals more than Brooke does. She treats her own pets, 3 cats, like family. They get lots of love and attention. Their needs are always top priority to Brooke. I have known Brooke to actually take care of a neighbors dog. The dog's owners were an older couple who really were not physically able to care for the dog their son had left with them. She bathed him, took him for walks, made sure he had water and food etc. What can I say, she has a big loving heart for animals.”
Tia P.
“Tia is spending lots of time with our dogs and can handle all 3 of their needs. She sends fun photos, takes them on long walks, and takes care of the chickens too.”
Isabelle C.
“Isabelle is very good with animals and has dealt with a vast variety of different kinds, from rabbits to dogs, from parakeets to chickens. She has a very loving heart and finds joy in caring for animals of all kinds. She has dog sat for multiple acquaintances and makes sure that all of the animals under her care receive lots of love!”

Anna M.
“We have two cats and one dog, who has very specific medical needs. He is a handful, and very energetic and strong, but Anna took great care of him, kept him happy and healthy, and was able to administer the medicine he needed each day. Anna is very patient, loving, and kind. She even taught our dog some new tricks! I would highly recommend Anna for any pet sitting needs, and I know she'll be watching our animals again in the future.”

Christopher P.
“I can't recommend Christopher enough as a kind, caring, and highly knowledgable animal caregiver. Christopher has spent a lifetime rescuing, rehoming, and caring for animals. I personally have worked alongside him as he raised, managed, and cared for farm animals, gaining valuable animal first aid experience for all types of furry, hooved, and feathered friends. Owning multiple pets of his own, Christopher knows well the needs of dogs and cats of all ages, always holding their wellbeing top of mind.”
