“Cassy took the best care of Red and Xena during their boarding stay! She sent me regular updates with photos and videos. She provided a home environment for our dogs where they received lots of attention and play time. I highly recommend Cassy for private boarding!”
“She’s just awesome. She texts updates and pictures multiple times a day. Our nervous and skittish dog had fun. Her dog seemed sad to see ours leave. Definitely choose her for your dog sitting needs.”
“Our first time ever using Rover and Krystal made this process so easy and was an absolute life saver after last minute needing someone to keep our doggy! She kept us updated on Mav everyday… sent pictures AND videos!! Maverick was very nervous being in a new environment and scared of the bad thunderstorms but Krystal definitely did it all to keep his mind occupied and let him know he was safe… that made us feel so good! Thank you for caring our pup❤️❤️❤️”
“Shawna is amazing. She has a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces, took my dog on daily walks on a beautiful trail, and let my dog find her happy place at all times throughout the day and night. She loves animals, knows how to serve their needs, and brought us relief that all was going well by sending us updates with photos and videos. We will be using Shawna again without a doubt. Thank you so much Shawna!”
“I have boarded my dog with Kristy twice now, and it’s been a great experience both times! My biggest issue with conventional boarding facilities was that no one seemed to be able to give Rocky his medications correctly, but Kristy has been on top of it. She communicates well, sends pictures, and updates frequently. Rocky is an anxious dog and can be very particular about his space, but Kristy didn’t have any issues with this and knows dog behavior well. As long as she’s available I’ll book in the future!”
“Elizabeth has always been great and very accommodating! Her family has been a great place for us to leave our dog Lexi. We have left our dog there multiple times and will definitely again when we are back in the area.”
“We reached out last minute and she replied so fast! From the start, she was incredibly responsive and kept us in the loop the whole time with photos of Brownie and Chewie, which gave us such peace of mind. She clearly loves what she does. The space was always clean and she made sure the dogs were entertained, active and showered with love. The walks, the fun and the attention, our pups were living their best life! Her own dogs were sweet and got along really well with ours, which made the whole experience even better. I Highly recommend Alexis!”
“i will definitely be taking my dog back here in the future! she was super accommodating and flexible when i had to add an extra night. she sent me lots of pics so i know my pup was being loved on and taken care of! super thorough and kind! could not recommend her more!! :)”
“Felt confident that Scout was being loved and cared for. Penny sent pics and videos and kept us updated on how Scout was doing. Would absolutely recommend Penny and use her again.”
“Kat was more than amazing! We left our pup with her for 10 days and she not only took amazing care but also documented all of her food intake and stool health. Constantly took pictures! I’m sure this will not be the last time we leave our pup with Kat. We couldn’t have chosen a better sitter!”
“Erin was graciously able to help me out on a short notice. She sent photos of the dogs to let me know how well they were setting in - that was very comforting to see they were doing well. Thank you for being so kind and helpful. I highly recommend her.”
“On very short notice, because of an emergency change of plans, we needed a dawg sitter. Nicole & Dexter P. were our choice by default. They were the closest. We knew nothing about them. I contacted them, hoping against hope, that with only a day’s notice , they would be able to take our puppy. Millie is 3 years old, but in our minds, still a puppy. If you live your dog, you understand! They came through for us!!! Good communications and stayed in touch with us while we were gone. Sent pictures. Let us pick her up early, since the wife was worried about her. 9 o’clock at night but they worked with us to get her back with us. I don’t have a single complaint to mss as I’d against them. In my book, they are aces. Kudos! Applause! 😊”

“Leslie agreed to meet the dogs before her first visit and is very understanding of their different needs. She gave them more time to play than I expected and was patient with my fearful dog. Thank you!”
“Cara did a wonderful job looking in on our senior cat. She gave him lots of love and played his special water game at the sink with him. She sent lots of pictures so we could see him each day and know he was having fun hanging with her. We're new to our area so it was great to find a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Rachel was great with our cat Skippy! He’s a little high maintenance but she was a total pro. This was our first time using rover and we were nervous but Rachel came over for a pre visit and after talking with her we knew Skippy was in great hands. Will be booking with her in the future!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for and grooming cats through my pet care background and business experience. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, litter box care, grooming needs, medications if needed, and overall behavior changes, and I always keep owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“She was so great to our 3mo pup who had to come on vacation because she’s still too young for boarding. She was easy to communicate with, came to our cabin, and was very kind to our babe.”
“Tasha was great! She was very communicative and gracious, even when the garage door opener I gave her didn’t work, she took everything in stride to work around the issue and still take care of my two cats. She replied almost instantly to messages and all of my questions.”
“Jen is absolutely the BEST pet sitter ever!! She treated my kitties like royalty! She sent pictures every day and spoiled them rotten. Our cats barely noticed we were gone. We had great peace of mind knowing they were getting spoiled rotten by a person who genuinely loves pets. You can't go wrong with Jen!”

This job aligns perfectly with my career aspirations, allowing me to apply my learning in real-world settings and gain valuable hands-on experience. Caring for your pets isn't just a job for me; it's a vital part of my journey towards becoming a dedicated professional in animal care.
“My pet has a terminal cancer and is an original smelly cat. Storm took good care of her and my two other cats. The house was in order on my return and my sick cat got dosed on schedule. I am thrilled with her service.”
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years now, including my families pets and my friend’s pets including dogs, cats, and even goats. Currently I take care of my German Shepherd dog at home, feeding in the morning and night time, letting him outside, and playing with him. I take care of pets gently, when playing with them if they are young and energetic i will play a lot more with them than older pets.
“Ami was great with our 2 cats. She sent us pictures & videos so I could see how much they trusted & loved her. She played with them & would pet them which they love. The litter boxes were cleaned & they were fed on a daily basis. Highly recommend her & I will definitely reach out to her again. Thank you Ami for taking good care of our fur babies.”

“We’re from out of town and were scrambling to find a sitter for our girl for a few hours. I submitted a request and Alexis responded quickly. Our puppy was happy to see us at pickup, but seemed a bit worn out from playing. We know she had fun and was taken care of. Would definitely recommend!”
“Tracy was a blesssing! We have a very sweet spoiled baby, and she put all of our fears to rest about leaving her. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Tracy!”
“Shyann was so kind and patient with me as the owner and absolutely doted on Charlie. She sent me multiple updates and photos through the day so I knew Charlie was having as much fun away from me as possible. I felt so safe leaving Charlie with her. I highly recommend her!”
“Our Bree seemed to be very happy with Zach and family. He took her out a few times and she had playtime, which is important for her with all of her energy. Thank you so much, Zach.”
“Again another perfect stay. My girl runs right in the house and grabs a toy. I know she I always loved and well taken care of. I am so grateful for this family. Thanks guys!”
“Tracey was wonderful caring for Pepper in Gatlinburg. From the very beginning, she had such a warm, caring energy that immediately made us feel comfortable. She welcomed us into her home, which gave us great peace of mind. She kept us updated throughout the stay and made sure Pepper was happy, safe, and comfortable. It’s clear she truly loves dogs and treats them like family. We would absolutely recommend her and would choose her again without hesitation. 🐾💛”
About: I’m an experienced and reliable pet sitter who has cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I’ve helped take care of many animals over the years and am comfortable with feeding schedules, bathing, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m patient, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I work part time so it’s easy to book with me for bathing, drop-ins, dog sitting, dog day care. Please note I do not trim animal hair. My schedule is pretty flexible: 9am-7pm/Monday-Friday. I travel to owners home, I try not to bring other animals to my home due to me having very energetic dogs that don’t get along well with others.
“Megan was amazing with Benji! She really cared and Benji warmed up to her right away. While we were gone, she kept us updated with check-ins and photos. It was clear that Benji had a great time. He was happy, relaxed, and was well cared for by Megan and her family. She is reliable, kind, and genuinely great with dogs. I’d definitely recommend Megan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their pup!”
“Emily was able to help us out a few times when we moved to town and we didn’t want to leave our pup alone in a new house. She took him on several walks and even to the dog park, both which Farley loves to do. We really appreciate her taking him into her home and taking such good care of him.”
“Sarah is amazing. We were in town for a weekend and wanted to go to Dollywood for the day without our pup. Sarah was super accommodating, easy to communicate with, clearly loves dogs and my dog came home super tired from a day of playing. Would highly recommend Sarah to everyone!”
“Kristy was amazing!! My times got all wonky and I dropped him off and picked him up a little later than we originally planned, and she was SO kind about it! Communicated very quickly and did wonderfully with Banjo. He came home nice and wore out from all the playing he did with Kristy:)”
“She’s awesome!! She provides you with pictures and videos all day! She accommodated my baby well because he had just gotten neutered. I’m definitely coming back to her!”

About: I’ve taken care of many animals over the years and absolutely love it. I jump at the chance when a friend or family asks me to take care of their pets! I have experience volunteering at an animal shelter where we got to play with the animals, learn about their behaviors, and clean up after them. My favorite thing to do is take them on walks or just simply hang out. I have lots of experience pet sitting and would love to take care of yours! I’m currently working part-time from home and have flexible hours during the week and weekend. I’d be happy to help out with your pet whenever you need.

About: I have grown up with dogs, and I have a big 110 pound lovable anxious boy dog and I have been trained to build his confidence and take him on enjoyable walks- with lots of patience and treats! I also have a cat and can appreciate all personalities of cats! My schedule is very open and flexible! I am willing to move my own personal schedule around for my clients needs and requests for their pets. I make sure to create an environment to make animals feel safe and spoiled.

About: I provide low-volume, personalized boarding for dogs who deserve more than a kennel experience. I intentionally accept only a small number of dogs at a time so every pup receives plenty of attention, supervision, affection, and individualized care. I’ve cared for animals my entire life, including dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, parakeets, and reptiles. As a dental student, attention to detail, communication, and responsibility are a huge part of who I am. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, cuddly, food-motivated, or has a very specific routine, I take the time to learn what makes them comfortable and happy so they can truly enjoy their stay. A typical day includes plenty of outdoor playtime in my large fenced backyard, lots of attention, couch naps, treats (with owner approval!), enrichment, and quality one-on-one time. Every dog is different, so I tailor the day to their personality and energy level. Some dogs want to spend hours running around the yard, while others are happiest curled up next to me while I study. Either way, they’ll be included in my daily routine and treated like part of the family. My goal is simple: I want your dog to be excited when they arrive and exhausted from fun when they go home! Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a large fenced backyard for secure outdoor play and closely supervise all interactions. Before every stay, I take time to learn your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, sleeping preferences, medications, and any special needs so I can provide the smoothest transition possible. I also provide frequent photo updates and communication throughout the stay because I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away from your pet. My goal is for both you and your dog to feel completely comfortable and cared for.

Knowing our dogs were being so well cared for made our day at Dollywood completely stress-free. She was reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. We would absolutely book with Alexis again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter or dog walker!”
“Sydney did a great job of taking care of my pup, Mickey, while we were on vacation in Sevierville, May 8 -13, 2026. Sydney was good with Mickey and very reliable.

I hope Sydney's available again next year!”

“Rachel was awesome! Kept me informed through the whole process by letting me know when she was on the way, sent pictures during the walk, let me know when she got back, and that my house was locked up when she left. It was so nice having that piece of mind while I was at work. I definitely recommend her. Thank you Rachel!”

“Jennifer “Grace” was amazing!! We had a last minute event pop up & requested her dog walking services and she was able to accommodate us on super short notice. She was extremely responsive, timely & sent us plenty of photos of our pup while he was in her care. We would definitely recommend!”

About: I have experience with all different types of pets and have paid experience the past six years. I will make sure your pet stays on their routine and feels happy and loved while you’re away. During sits my wife tends to join me. She’s also very experienced with animals and has farm and exotic animal experience. If this is something you are not comfortable with, I am happy to adjust this. I am taking some time to start my own business with my wife. So there’s plenty of time and attention to go around. Most of my work can be scheduled around Rover. If I am housesitting however I may have to leave for a few hours at a time but usually no longer than 3 or 4 so that your pet gets the maximum amount of attention possible. Safety is always a top priority and your pups will always be kept on the same type of schedule they have when they are with you to ensure they aren’t thrown off their routine when you return.
About: i have many years of experience caring for animals from guinea pigs all the way to a Great Dane. I have been a veterinary assistant but I currently work at a boarding and daycare facility. I have open availability. My current job is extremely flexible. I have my own pets that I care for as well as other pets with my current role at the boarding and daycare facility. My pets at my home are very well taken care of with a fenced yard. I would prefer to watch/care for your fur babies at your home as my outside dogs are not always friendly to new comers
About: I have owned a dog or two for most of my life. My dogs are my family. I have experience with puppies up to senior dogs. I currently have two older dogs. I have a huge fenced in yard and a great neighborhood for walking. I am currently working part time and looking to fill my extra days loving your pets. I have a large fenced yard and comfortable safe home. I have two friendly dogs and a great neighborhood for walking. I have experience with crating dogs as well. Your pets will be sharing my home and yard.
About: I’ve cared for all kinds of pets throughout my life and often helped friends with theirs as well. Animals have always been a big part of my world, and I truly love spending time with them. I’d be honored to give your pet the same love and care I give my own, and I hope to be the one you trust with your best friend! I am currently unemployed so I am almost always available. I have a dog of my own that I will have to go home and see sometimes if I am house sitting. Just give me a message and we can discuss details and figure out what works best for both of us. At my home, pets are treated like part of the family with lots of love, playtime, and snuggles. I do my best to keep their routine close to what they’re used to so they feel comfortable and happy. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walks, meds, or just extra belly rubs to make sure your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years now, including my families pets and my friend’s pets including dogs, cats, and even goats. Currently I take care of my German Shepherd dog at home, feeding in the morning and night time, letting him outside, and playing with him. I take care of pets gently, when playing with them if they are young and energetic i will play a lot more with them than older pets.
About: I love fur babies and would rather be surrounded by fur babies then people.I definitely have always felt like I have a connection with fur babies I am currently working for myself so I have plenty of time for fur babies. I would be around all the time to keep a close eye on your fur babies so they remain safe. I definitely would be one on one so they would not be unattended I definitely would be watching the fur babies very closely. To keep them safe.
“Nyla walked our dog for us. She was very knowledgable about dogs and listened to all of our concerns. She took good care of our dog, being attentive to other dogs that may have been a threat to avoid any negative interactions. She sent us lots of pictures and a report card! We plan to work with her again and would highly recommend her.”

“Cassy took the best care of Red and Xena during their boarding stay! She sent me regular updates with photos and videos. She provided a home environment for our dogs where they received lots of attention and play time. I highly recommend Cassy for private boarding!”
“She’s just awesome. She texts updates and pictures multiple times a day. Our nervous and skittish dog had fun. Her dog seemed sad to see ours leave. Definitely choose her for your dog sitting needs.”
“I have boarded my dog with Kristy twice now, and it’s been a great experience both times! My biggest issue with conventional boarding facilities was that no one seemed to be able to give Rocky his medications correctly, but Kristy has been on top of it. She communicates well, sends pictures, and updates frequently. Rocky is an anxious dog and can be very particular about his space, but Kristy didn’t have any issues with this and knows dog behavior well. As long as she’s available I’ll book in the future!”
“We reached out last minute and she replied so fast! From the start, she was incredibly responsive and kept us in the loop the whole time with photos of Brownie and Chewie, which gave us such peace of mind. She clearly loves what she does. The space was always clean and she made sure the dogs were entertained, active and showered with love. The walks, the fun and the attention, our pups were living their best life! Her own dogs were sweet and got along really well with ours, which made the whole experience even better. I Highly recommend Alexis!”
“i will definitely be taking my dog back here in the future! she was super accommodating and flexible when i had to add an extra night. she sent me lots of pics so i know my pup was being loved on and taken care of! super thorough and kind! could not recommend her more!! :)”
“Erin was graciously able to help me out on a short notice. She sent photos of the dogs to let me know how well they were setting in - that was very comforting to see they were doing well. Thank you for being so kind and helpful. I highly recommend her.”
“On very short notice, because of an emergency change of plans, we needed a dawg sitter. Nicole & Dexter P. were our choice by default. They were the closest. We knew nothing about them. I contacted them, hoping against hope, that with only a day’s notice , they would be able to take our puppy. Millie is 3 years old, but in our minds, still a puppy. If you live your dog, you understand! They came through for us!!! Good communications and stayed in touch with us while we were gone. Sent pictures. Let us pick her up early, since the wife was worried about her. 9 o’clock at night but they worked with us to get her back with us. I don’t have a single complaint to mss as I’d against them. In my book, they are aces. Kudos! Applause! 😊”

“Elizabeth is absolutely AMAZING!!! We had a last minute change of plans and needed to board our pups over thanksgiving and she was quick to respond and accept the reservation. She not only came out to greet us, she helped me get both dogs and their things out of the car. Throughout the week she sent us constant updates of their shenanigans with both cute and funny pictures of them. I asked for a specific photo of one dog for instagram and she did a whole little photo shoot! Pretty much every day she took them to the greenway down the road for 1-2 mile walks and even helped work on their leash manners. If you need your dog boarded with someone you know you can trust, book with Elizabeth. We will be using her every time we go back to the mountains!!!”
“Telecia was great with my 10 week old Milo. Milo was not potty trained and very active which was not a problem for Telecia. The house and yard were great and very big (which Milo seemed to love). Telecia was thoughtful enough to send regular pictures and videos of Milo. Upon picking Milo up she was very happy and at ease with Telecia. I'll definitely be using Telecia's services again.”
“Joseph was wonderful with taking care of our girl! He provided daily updates and made sure Tilly was active and entertained. Already have another booking with him!”
“Kiki was wonderful with our lucky. Kiki kept us updated every day with pics and post. We were very pleased with the way kiki loved and cared for our lucky. Thank you kiki for making it possible to go away and not worry about lucky. We will definitely use kiki again.”
“Somer is awesome! I was in a pinch, and she was able to watch my dog for 4 days with only a day notice! She gave me updates and sent photos! Definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
“Tracy is wonderful, she stayed in constant contact and sent pictures to me daily of my baby. My Moxie Marie was walked everyday while she was there with Tracy. I will definitely bring my baby back to her when in town. I highly recommend her.”
