About: I have a lifelong passion for animals and hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve volunteered in animal shelters, where I helped care for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. Having grown up with both dogs and cats my entire life, I understand their needs, personalities, and the importance of providing patient, loving, and reliable care. I am a morning person, who is in PA school 8am-5pm most days. I can do early morning, lunchtime, and dinner drop-ins during the week. I am free all day on the weekends. I provide attentive, personalized care in my home or my client’s home, always following each pet’s routine and specific needs. This includes feeding, fresh water, administering medications if needed, walks and playtime for dogs, enrichment and companionship for cats, and regular updates for owners. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, safe, and happy while maintaining the routine they know and trust.
“Tara did a wonderful job taking care of my pups including the extra work of caring for my 4 month old puppy. All my instructions and requests were followed perfectly, and the pups can’t wait to see her again for my next trip!”
“MaShon provided such a great experience while we were out of town. She had great communication from the very beginning, and our pups absolutely loved meeting her and being under her care. We appreciated all of the updates and photos we received while we were gone. And, she left the house in perfect condition! We will definitely book with her again!!”
“Jodi was such a joy to connect with and she took phenomenal care of our sweet pup Goji while we were away! We’re lucky to have found her! We’re recommending her to all our friends & family!”
“Annabelle took amazing care of Brandy and Phoebe, as always!-I’ve had experiences with sitters in the past that left me with some concerns, but she has no trouble making me feel like my pups are safe and well cared for. Thanks again Annabelle!!!”
About: Hi! I’m a PA student in Knoxville with over 8 years of experience dog sitting and house sitting. Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, responsible, and outgoing, and I love spending time outdoors, so your dog can count on plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. Whether your pet enjoys being active or prefers a quiet companion, I’m happy to follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so my goal is to give you complete peace of mind through dependable care, regular updates, and lots of photos. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I’m a full-time PA student in Farragut and attend class Monday through Thursday from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM. I do have a lunch break, so if you’re nearby, I’m happy to stop by for a midday potty break or walk. My evenings and weekends are very flexible since I typically study from home, making me available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and plenty of quality time with your pet! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, and provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, and updates while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and cared for, while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in reliable, compassionate hands.
About: I have hands-on experience from interning at a veterinarian clinic and working for a local pet care company similar to Rover. As a pet owner myself (dog and epileptic kitten), I know how to handle walks, feeding, bathing, medications, and more. Your pet will be in caring and capable hands! I am available most weekends. I also work from home often, which provides me more flexibility. However, days I am in the office, I am available mornings, lunch time, and evenings. I provide attentive, personalized care by ensuring pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of affection. I follow routines, administer medications if needed, and maintain a safe, comfortable environment in both my home and clients’ homes. I have an epileptic kitten, so am no stranger to anything pet related.
About: About Me: Hello! I’m Francisca, an experienced animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and horses. I am a proud owner of a Basenji, so I’m familiar with the unique needs and personalities of different breeds. I genuinely love most animals and am passionate about ensuring their well-being, comfort, and happiness. What I Offer: With my extensive experience, I understand the importance of providing pets with the care, attention, and companionship they need when you’re not around. Whether it’s a long walk, a cuddle session, or just ensuring they’re safe and content, I’m here to make sure your pets feel at ease and loved in your absence. Let’s connect and see how I can help make your time away from home worry-free! I currently working during the week but weekends are mostly free so I go on long walks in the evening and frequently visit the dog park! I let them roam freely in my apartment as I’m not a big fan of caging animals or keeping them restricted areas. I have a large backyard in my apartment to let dogs room, free and a close by park for longer walks.
“Alex was AMAZING! She stepped up and covered an eight day booking last minute when the original sitter cancel two days before our trip. She updated us with pictures several times a day. Our house was cleaned pups were happy when we got home. They liked her so much they keep going to the guest room door looking for her! We will definitely rebook her and give her the highest recommendation!!!!”
“Teresa consistently goes above and beyond and it shows. She treats Wrigley like her own, buying him treats, even giving him a bath and cleaning out his ear bc he was itchy. My house was spotless and my laundry folded on my return. She always keeps me updated and has such a great attitude about things. I highly recommend.”
About: I have cared for dogs personally for the majority of my life. I also gained professional experience working at a doggie daycare where I got to play and cuddle with a variety of dogs! At the doggie daycare, I learned some helpful methods on how to handle and evaluate a dog’s temperament for a group setting. I’m currently working part-time and am available on the weekends from 12 pm till 11 pm! Due to having classes during the week, my best time to work is the weekends. I live in an apartment complex that is pet friendly and live just down the hill from a dog park. My roommate also has a dog to keep yours company!
“Emma did a wonderful job with our senior dog, Bella! Bella requires medication administration and special feedings. Emma went above and beyond with Bella. She even came to do a meet ‘n greet before we officially booked. She communicated throughout the day and at key times when we normally gave medication or fed Bella so that our minds were at ease. She was a the absolute best. If you can, BOOK EMMA!”

This was the second time we got to work with Rebecca! Both times she was great! This latest time our oldest dog decided to be challenging with some accidents and she had to deal with that. She just cared for our fragile German Shepard. She took great care of our home and sent regular updates! Rebecca is great and we hope we can work with her more in the future. Thank you!
MaShon is an excellent pet sitter. She took such good care of our dog and cat ❤️ She was very communicative and kept us updated with photos. When we left our dog wasn’t feeling well, but MaShon knew just what our dog needed to feel better:) The house was tidied up before we got home. When it comes to holistic care, she is a wealth of knowledge!! Will definitely use her services again!
Kaylee did an amazing job! I get so anxious leaving my pups, but she made me feel so much better with regular updates and pictures. She showed up right on time, stayed for the full visit, and I could tell she genuinely cared about my dogs and making sure they were well taken care of. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again!
Hannah was dedicated to the care of my animals and very kind to them. She was thorough and thoughtful of them, and my cat that hides all the time came out to hiding to sleep with her. She updated me with photos and left my home in great condition. I’ll definitely use her again!
Alex was AMAZING! She stepped up and covered an eight day booking last minute when the original sitter cancel two days before our trip. She updated us with pictures several times a day. Our house was cleaned pups were happy when we got home. They liked her so much they keep going to the guest room door looking for her! We will definitely rebook her and give her the highest recommendation!!!!
Morgan was fantastic! She listened attentively when we met up for her to get to know our dogs and for me to explain their routine. She handled our young puppy like a champ and was faithful to send pictures and updates during her time with our dogs. She left our house clean and tidy as well. We will definitely use her again in the future!
Ashley was great with our dog who can be a bit shy. Very responsive and accommodating to our schedule which put me at ease being out of town for several days. Even stayed a little bit longer the last day so there was less alone time between her leaving and our return because there was a chance of storms which my dog is scared of.

The average cost of House Sitting in Ten Mile is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $83 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Ten Mile walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Ten Mile maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Ten Mile choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
