About: From an early age, we have cared for, rescued, and loved animals of all types. Into adulthood, we have been blessed to be trusted to provide care for several fur babies, small to large. Developing and maintaining ongoing friendships with both the pets, and the owners is important to us. Earning trust and getting invited back is what drives us. We will be honored to meet you, and your four-legged family. Thank you for your consideration! Brita is currently working part time and has plenty of time to care for your pets! We are passionate about the well being of animals and will be available rain or shine. We believe the safety of your four-legged family member is very important. At our home, our cats are never without. Simply walking, feeding, and providing clean water is not what pet-sitting is all about. Our furry friends also need love and companionship. That, I believe, sets us apart.
About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life! I've handled healthy pets, sick pets, old pets, young pets, all the pets. Go-to house and pet sitter for friends and family, I've also sat for horses, chickens, and goats. I just love animals, and I'd love to love on your animals! I have a very flexible schedule that allows do what I want when I want! I do travel full-time, usually only in an area for 3 weeks at most, so I won't be a long term provider. I am happy to fulfill any reasonable request. I can handle crating, walking, feeding, cleanup, and play. I also have two healthy, very friendly dogs that would be happy to join on walks or play dates with the other owners' permission. I am extremely cautious with the safety of my dogs and will be with your pets, too.
About: Hi! We’re Zach and Kennedy, a husband-and-wife team who love welcoming dogs into our home. We care for our Rover guests together, so you may communicate and interact with either of us throughout your pup’s stay! We’re conveniently located about 2 miles from Dollywood and 5 miles from Gatlinburg, making us an easy option for both locals and visitors who want their pup nearby while they spend the day exploring the Smokies. We both work from home, which means we’re around throughout the day to provide plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, and company. We share our home with our two young children and our own dog, so we’re especially happy to welcome pups who are comfortable in a family environment. We know how important it is to feel comfortable with the people caring for your dog. Our goal is to provide a safe, attentive, and loving home away from home. Whether your pup is joining us for daycare or an overnight stay, we tailor their care to their individual needs and routine, with plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and opportunities to relax. With two of us home and involved in caring for our guests, your pup gets lots of company throughout their stay. We want them to feel like part of the family while they’re here, and we want you to enjoy your time away knowing that they’re in good hands. Since we both work from home, at least one of us is typically home during the day. This gives us plenty of flexibility for potty breaks, meals, playtime, attention, and keeping up with your dog’s normal routine. Because we care for our Rover guests together, your pup will have two people looking out for them throughout their stay! We want every dog in our care to feel safe and comfortable in our home. We have two young children and a dog of our own, so the safety of everyone in our home, including your pup, is our priority. We follow each owner’s care instructions closely and are happy to accommodate your dog’s normal feeding, potty, sleeping, and crate routines. We also believe good communication is important and ask that owners be upfront about their dog’s temperament, behavior, and needs so we can provide the best and safest care possible.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was seven and have cared for them professionally for the last decade. I love all animals but dogs are my favorite. I work 8 hours per day on average, early mornings to early afternoons. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are my weekends. I would care for your pets around this schedule. Your preferences come first. I can improvise in areas where you don’t have specific requests. I’m great with animals and I’m calm in (god forbid) emergency situations.

I enjoy walking/running with your pets through scenic routes and I am a reliable, dependable, and trustworthy person.

About: I’m a caring and dependable pet lover who understands how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust.

I am able to accept clients during the week if early morning and late evening work! I prefer pet sitting at the clients home due to I have 2 cats and live in an apartment. The space would be too small.
About: I have over five years of hands-on pet care experience, caring for both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Since I was young, neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. Along with personal pet sitting, I also worked at a professional dog boarding facility in Athens, TN, where I gained valuable experience caring for multiple animals at once. This included everything from administering food and medications to ensuring safe group play, monitoring behavior, and keeping the environment clean and stress-free. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies, senior pets who need a gentler touch, and animals with special needs or medical routines. Cats hold a special place in my care as well. I understand their unique personalities and provide the patience and respect they need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddle time, or extended care, I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to each pet’s wellbeing. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in loving and capable hands. I currently work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate quality time to caring for pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends, weekdays, and most evenings. My schedule allows me to provide consistent walks, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, an afternoon walk, or overnight care, I’m able to work with your routine and make sure your fur baby always feels loved and cared for. My home is calm and set up to make animals feel safe and comfortable. Since I currently don’t have other pets, your fur baby will get my full attention without the stress of competing for space or care. I’m experienced with crating, feeding routines, and following special instructions. Whether caring for dogs or cats, I make sure to provide a clean and secure environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I treat every animal like family and prioritize safety, trust, and lots of love in everything I do

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Tuckaleechee is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $39 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,105 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tuckaleechee. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
