“I can't recommend Kristy enough! She was great with my 16yo dog that has mobility issues and uses a harness to get around. I was nervous to leave her with someone since she needs special care but Kristy went above and beyond for her! I got lots of photos and updates while I was away. I would absolutely have my dog stay with Kristy again!”
“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.”
“My dogs stayed for a while with Ann and they had a very good time. Ann sent us daily updates on our dogs and they always looked happy. I will definitely take them back in case I need.”
“Quincy had a nice time with Donna. She slept in a large crated area and played in her fenced yard. It was a great spot to board our dog when we stayed in a rental house in the area that did not allow dogs.”
“Francis was so happy at Erin’s home, he wasn’t ready to leave when I came to get him! Erin was quick to respond to all of my messages and made me feel like Francis was in great hands. I’m so happy to see him this way and I’ll definitely be using Erin again!”
“Kathy is truly amazing! My hound dog is not like other dogs and needs a lot of reassurance, love and space to feel space! Kathy provides just that environment. She responded to me promptly each time I check in on keepsake and made sure he was happy and well cared for! I can’t thank her or recommend her enough!”
“Communication throughout boarding was excellent! We had a meet and greet prior to boarding that helped me feel more at ease with my doggo's well-being. There were several walks, photo updates, and time with other dogs playing. I'd book with Nicole and Dexter again, if their schedule allows during future trips!”
“First time Rover user here and couldn’t have asked for anything better with Cassy. She took amazing care of my senior lab. He looked like he had the best time and got lots of love and play time. My daily pictures and videos allowed me to actually enjoy my vacation knowing my pup was in good care. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Joseph was wonderful! Very welcoming and friendly. After the meet and greet, I knew Sioux would be in good hands. Joseph made sure to send pictures and videos everyday and Sioux was tuckered out when I picked her up. I'm glad that I found a great local sitter and will be reaching out to Joseph for future vacations!”
“Tracy was great and very accommodating to us when we wanted to have day visits (picking up and dropping off) with our Geddy!! Geddy appeared to enjoy his time and was always in good spirits when we picked him up or dropped him off in the evenings!!! My husband and I would not hesitate to have Tracy watch Geddy again if we ever visited the area again!!!”
“Actually the best dog sitter i've had. She kept me updated on my dog's and sent pictures so i could see them . Definitely Recommend her if you easily stress about your fur babies.”
“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❤️❤️❤️”
About: I am a caring and attentive individual who absolutely loves my pets and treats them like family. Located near the Foothills of the Smoky Mountains. My home is the perfect home away from home for you pet while you enjoy your vacation. I occasionally care for my neighbors pets with drop in visits at their home when they are out of town. I am home all day with my fur babies. I would be able to care for your pet and give it all the attention and love it needs. I have a fence, but not completely closed. We are working on getting that done soon. I do have a small fence closed in around my patio so the dogs can freely hang outside with me. During potty breaks I will make sure to have your pet out with a leash at all times. I have 2 friendly dogs as well. If your pet needs to be crated I can do that also.
“We are delighted to have found the sitter of our dreams! The property and home are a sporting dog's Disney World. Viviana has a loving nature with dogs and their owners! This is our first Rover.com experience. We will definitely re-book! ”
“Tamara was very punctual. Communication was too notch. She sent daily text updates, videos or pictures. My dogs got great socializing with her dogs. Great first time experience. I would recommend Tamara for dog sitting.”
About: I have cared for cats and dogs my entire life! My family had multiple pets at all times growing up. I am a cat mom myself with shared custody with my twin sister. I offer a pet stranger free home with my own cats staying with my sister while I have guest pets. 🐈 I first began pet sitting in college and primarily serviced young adults and college students. Thus, I have always offered an affordable rate so that regular people can obtain pet sitting services without having to pay expensive boarding fees. 🐶 Although I just started using Rover, I have been sitting for years through friends, family, and referrals! I can provide references for those I have serviced in the past that have not been through the app. 🐈 I am a former President, Vice President, and class representative of the Animal Legal Defense Fund at the University of Tennessee College of Law. I am available any day of the week for boarding. 🐈 Currently, I am not accepting bookings over 2 months in advance. 🐈 For drop in visits and walks, I am available Mon-Fri between 7:30-8:30 a.m., 11:30-1:30 p.m., and after 6 p.m. Available all day Saturday and Sunday beginning 9 a.m. 🐶 Drop off and pickups must occur between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. 🐈 Meet and greets must occur in the evening and are offered at Sutree Landing Park. Your pets become mine for a few days! I would care for them as if they were my own. I let pets staying in my home on the furniture and sleep in my bed. If you would like pictures of my home to see where your pet would be staying, feel free to ask! My personal pets vacate my home and stay with their other parent while I am sitting to eliminate conflicts with guest pets. 🐈 I send as many pictures as you want and I am available by text all day.
“Elexis was wonderful with Synna. She was kind, responsive, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. Synna was well cared for, and I felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone needing a reliable sitter.”

“Rachel was a delight; friendly, responsive and punctual. She took care of our three kitties very well, including one who has some health issues and requires a bit of special handling. She sent pictures and a video while we were gone, which we really appreciated since we missed them very much. This was the first time I had used Rover and wasn’t sure what to expect, but was more than pleased. I will DEFINITELY be contacting Rachel in the future the next time that we need pet sitting.”
“Rebecca was an absolute life saver and amazing watching our dog while we were gone for a week! She jumped in last moment when our original sitter cancelled and had our little one in great hands. She is very communicative, a quick responder, and we really appreciated the full updates and numerous pictures with each check in. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Cheyenne did a great job taking care of our cat “Leo” while we were gone. She answered our request promptly and came the same day for meet and instructions. Thanks to her our plants stayed alive while we were gone in the almost 100 degree heat because she did some watering as well and we really appreciated that. Leo seemed well taken care of when we returned.”
“Michaela was a wonderful caregiver for our three cats while we traveled for a week. She kept them happy while keeping me updated on how they were doing. And she even got our cranky cat to love her and let her give him medication. She’s great!”
“Crystal is the 3rd sitter I’ve used and the only one I have felt comfortable with. I am not usually one to leave reviews; however, Crystal deserves her flowers! I have 8 cats (insane, I know) which can be overwhelming for me, let alone someone unfamiliar with their routine, medical issues, and the overall volume of duties. Despite this, Crystal took excellent care of my babies (and home), followed instructions, and was very communicative. I would utilize Crystal’s services again and believe others ought to as well.”
“Tracy was amazing, and I will only use her from here on out for my pet care needs. Gave frequent updates with multiple pictures, noted a loose spot in my fence and rigged up a solution, and even took my dog Pico out on additional walks than I paid for. You can tell she truly has a heart for animals. The cherry on top was a sweet hand written note on my arrival back. Could not recommend more, 10/10!!!”
“Juan has been a lifesaver for me!! I have a lot of four-legged kids - several of which have medical needs and need to be monitored and/or have medication administered multiple times a day. I could tell right away by meeting him that he was confident in his skills and could handle taking care of my kids when I travel. Highly recommend!!”
“Elianna was great and welcomed my kitties into her home, even at the last minute! The kitties were happy and well cared for , she sent frequent updates by text and I was totally comfortable on my vacation with no worries about my kitties!”
“My cat has a very strong personality towards other people and Vanessa broke through his shell! She always sends daily updates with photos of my baby and I can relax while traveling knowing he’s in great hands with her while I’m gone!”
About: I love any and all animals. I have two dogs of my own who are absolutely amazing girls. I also have a horse back home whom I miss and love dearly. I always make sure my dogs are well fed, (probably overfed but hey, they’re happy right?) always loved, and always taken care of when they need it. They are always UTD on shots and never go without yummy treats and unconditional love and cuddles. If your fur babies stay with me they will have a house, but also a home to stay in to make them feel comfortable and at ease while you do your thing! I have playmates of all sizes and ages, and a huge yard to let them wear themselves out! They will always be happy here in my home. I can help with equine as well.
“Cy Cy, my cat, is a bit skittish and this was the first time we left her with a sitter. We had only been in Gatlinburg for a few hours when Frances sent a couple of pics of Cy Cy. She was on her back sleeping, just like she does at home, so she evidently felt safe. I really appreciate her care and anytime I need a sitter she will be my first call.”

“Jenny is so wonderful with my dog; whenever we’re in Knoxville we work with her. I can totally rely on her to take good care of my dog, to communicate often and to send lots of pictures 😊”

“Talk about “above and beyond” - Khasia was amazing to work with - and on very short notice! Goldie was very well taken care of and I would not hesitate to use Khasia again. She was polite, professional, and very kind.”
“Julianne was so wonderful with Andi for doggy day care! Lots of pets, toys, and pictures. Andi got exactly what she needed which was a long nap and snuggles. Julianne was very responsive and easy to work with. Will definitely use her again if ever in town!”
About: I grew up on a farm in rural Appalachia so I have been surrounded by pets of all different types for as long as I can remember. I learned how to care for them very early on in my childhood and that experience fostered my passionate love for all animals. I believe in caring for them, not just as pets, but members of our families. I am flexible with my routine so I can meet the varying needs of the doggies that stay with us. We can discuss more in depth when you inquire to book. I have a spacious, fenced in back yard that is perfect for zoomies and playtime! My home is open and welcoming. I have lots of space for them to hangout or to relax in their kennel.
“Absolutely amazing! They both were so welcoming with our dogs and I felt they were very happy and content right from getting there! Communication was great and the photos/videos really helped put me at ease. Will definitely book again!”
“Mysty was so happy with Lauryn because she was so attentive to Mysty and her son, he played with her son for hours!! She sent me pics and 1 video that made me and my hubby laugh so hard!! Her son was FANTASTIC and they chased each other around the house!! I would I highly recommend Lauryn to anyone!! She took care of our Mysty soo well!! We will use her alway!! 100 OUT OF 10!!”

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!”

“Jill was awesome! We found her on the app, had her booked and dropped off the next morning for a long day. She is very competent with dogs. After meeting her we relaxed and had our day out without worrying. She updated us as much as we wanted and Shelby was happy and tired when we picked her up. I would give her 6 stars if the app allowed.”
About: Outdoor enthusiast, runner, & a big fan of dogs. I’ve taken care of pets since before I can remember. I just adopted a new puppy a year and a half ago and was refreshed on what they need in their younger years. Would love to meet more furry buddies & can’t wait to love yours! I am currently taking a work hiatus the next few months, so I’m as free as a bird to spend the most time with your pups! Happy to keep pets in their safest environments, ie fenced yard or crate. If you want them out and about, I am extremely cognizant of reactive dogs and will be happy to take them for nice long walks :)

About: Just kidding, I do love a lint roller. Dogs have the kindest souls and should be treated as such. I've had a dog the majority of my life, starting with a Visla, mixed breed bulldog, and a black labrador retriever in our house when I was a child. I have owned two mixed american staffordshire terriers and a golden retriever myself. When I write it all down, it seems like a lot. I've cared for them as puppies, through life, surgeries, and health, and at the end of life. I am gentle and let dogs interact with me on their terms. I am open to caring for all types of dogs. I am a graduate student at the University of Tennessee, so my schedule is very flexible. I also don't get a lot of vacation time, so I'm usually in Knoxville. I can care for pets throughout the day, doing my lab work intermittently. I treat my client's home and pets with the utmost respect. I am there to do the job for which you hired me and nothing else, and you can count on me for it.
About: Hello! I’m Tracy. I’m a homemaker, home full time, lover of all animals, only have 1 dog (corgi), and have a LARGE fenced in backyard. I’m dedicated to caring for your pet with the same love and devotion I show my own. I have plenty of space in my home to house dogs in separate areas if needed. Dogs in my care are never left together unsupervised. Home is smoke-free and have no children. I'd be delighted to care for your furry family member! Let me give your beloved pet the love, attention, and safe haven they deserve. Any size dogs are welcome! ============================= ⭐️ Are you NEW to Rover? Ask me how you can save on your first Rover service! 🐾🐾♥️ ✨ Not new to Rover but interested in savings? Ask me about it! *Will require a phone call* 📞 ============================= I’ve babysat friends and family’s dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, chickens 🐓 , fish 🐠, and plants 🪴. I’ve also fostered dogs, love them like my own, until they were adopted. I have experience with dogs who have stranger anxiety, thunderstorm fears, and epilepsy. I can administer oral medication. ============================= I have one Pembroke Welsh corgi and as much as I love the breed, I don’t discriminate. I love all dogs, all shapes, sizes, and breeds. My first corgi was adopted in 2014. He was found wandering in the Texas heat covered in fleas with no collar or microchip. I bathed him, treated the fleas, put up signs and no one called for him. At the time, the vet estimated him to be 1-2 years old. He was with us for 11.5 years; he crossed the rainbow bridge on 12/05/25. 🐾🐾🌈💙 My female corgi is 10 years old. I’ve had her since she was 5 months old, and she still acts like a young pup, very vocal, super sweet, and loves to play fetch. She can be calm and chill too; she enjoys lounging in her kennel. ============================= I'm overjoyed to open my home and heart to your beloved pet! 🐾🐾♥️ Giving them the love, attention, and connection they deserve isn't just a responsibility - it's a true passion of mine. I understand the importance of providing a safe, nurturing, enriching environment. Your dog will receive: ✅ personalized attention ✅ PAWsitive reinforcement (pets and treats; please let me know if your dog has any known allergies or sensitivities) ✅ regular exercise and potty breaks ✅ plenty of snuggles ============================== Whether you need daily visits, boarding, or extended care, I'm committed to giving your furry family member the same love and care that I would give to my own. I can send you updates and photos. Understanding the demands of your busy lifestyle/vacation, I offer easy drop-off and pick-up options that can conveniently align with your work or travel schedule (depending on how close you are, price is negotiable). From bouncy, rambunctious puppies to gentle seniors, I've got the expertise and heart to deliver personalized care that meets the unique needs of every furry friend, no matter their age or stage. ============================== Accidents happen, but damages or extra cleaning due to undisclosed habits may incur a fee. Let's chat about how I can help care for your loyal companion! *** Important note: If your dog marks inside, I consider them not fully potty trained. I strive to work with well-trained dogs to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for all. Of course, I’m aware that puppies are still a work in progress. If your dog marks inside, they will be wearing a belly band during their stay with me. For each belly band they go through, there will be a $10 charge added for cleaning. *** ============================== I live on the border of Sevierville and Seymour. My neighborhood is peaceful. My secure backyard is doggy paradise! With plenty of space and grass to run around, play, explore, and do their business, I supervise closely to ensure all dogs have a blast together - and intervene if any furry friends need a break. My dogs and my clients’ dogs are never left outside unsupervised. I like to go on walks and would love to have a companion if that’s something your dog enjoys 🦮. I don’t have children so if your dog is uncomfortable around little people, no worries, none are here. ==============================
About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a huge animal lover, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’ve owned English Bulldogs for most of my life, so I’m very familiar with the breed and all of their funny little personalities.🤣 I also have experience with smaller animals like guinea pigs and absolutely love caring for pets beyond just cats and dogs. I treat every pet like they’re my own and will always do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. 🐾❤️ Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a mom of two, a huge animal lover, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I work from home and run my own business, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and am usually available throughout the day and into the evening for drop-ins, walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention! I don’t currently offer overnight stays, but if you’re looking for someone who can stop by your home frequently throughout the day and evening while you’re away, I’d love to help! My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for- and that you can enjoy your time away without worrying about them. I care for your pets in their home where they feel most safe and comfortable, rather than in an unfamiliar area as I feel it makes it easier on them.

I am available everyday of the week except Sunday 11am-11pm! I can also stay in home over nights upon request. Sundays reserved for sittings only. I currently have two cats who are very shy so I do not offer over night stays in my own home. However, I am more than happy to do over nights in the clients home. I have experience administering medicine by pill & injection. I also have experience in nail clipping & bathing of both dogs and cats. I love all the fur babies out there and am excited for them to love me too!

About: 2+ years of experience in kennel and veterinary settings- working with both cats and dogs with a variety of temperaments and ensuring their best experience while boarding! Dog and cat sitting experience for 10+ friends and family members countless times- comfortable with talks and indoor enrichment activities regardless of species. I currently work part-time during weekends, meaning I'm usually free Monday-Friday to play with and walked pups and cats whenever they need it! With my years of experience working with vet clinics and adjacent boarding facilities, I am comfortable working with animals with a variety of sizes and temperaments. I am more than comfortable to play inside, take dogs (or cats, if you want) on long walks, play outside, and monitor behavior to ensure beloved pets remain safe and healthy in the heat of summer.
“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. She regularly drove Mickey to Patriot Park for walks. She even took care of Mickey on Mother's Day, which allowed my family and me to spend the day worry-free at Anakeesta Adventure Park. I hope Sydney's available again next year!”
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: With 10 years of experience in caring for dogs, I’ve developed an unmatched understanding of canine behavior, health, and happiness. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of sharing my life with some truly special dogs, each of whom has shaped my approach to pet care in unique ways. My journey began with my beloved Sparkles Jane, whose sweet and gentle nature taught me the true meaning of loyalty and companionship. She was more than just a pet; she was a friend, a teacher, and a source of endless love. While Sparkles Jane is no longer with me, the lessons I learned from her continue to guide my care for all dogs I encounter. I’ve also had the pleasure of caring for Patches, whose playful spirit and affectionate personality brought joy to every moment. Through these years, I’ve learned the importance of patience, consistency, and the deep emotional bond that forms between a dog and their caregiver. Now, I’m lucky enough to spend time with my sweet Beau Beau and Chippy, two dogs who continue to hold a special place in my heart.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn't just my job—it's something I'm truly passionate about. With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I've had the privilege of caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Whether you have a playful new puppy learning the ropes, a senior dog who needs extra patience and gentle care, or an energetic companion who loves long walks and adventures, I'm here to provide the love, attention, and care they deserve. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know their unique routines, personalities, and needs. My experience doesn't stop with dogs. I've also cared for farm animals, including pigs, so I'm comfortable working with a variety of animals and their individual care requirements. When you trust me with your pets, you're trusting someone who will treat them like family. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. Whether you're at work, on vacation, or simply need an extra helping hand, you can count on dependable, compassionate care every step of the way. I currently work full time as a baker so I’m usually up at the crack of dawn. However I’m available in the afternoon and evenings. I would care for your pet like they are my own. I have a fenced yard and I’m always alert of my surroundings. I know that’s it’s a being deal to trust a stranger with your fur baby so I would only want the best for them while you are gone.
About: Hi there! I’m Ansley. I live in South Knoxville and work in animal science. I have over 10 years of experience caring for other people’s animals, and nearly 22 years of caring for my own pets. I worked in both small and large animal vet clinics as a veterinary assistant, so I’m comfortable giving medications and treating ill or elderly pets. I have two Labrador retrievers (6 years old and 6 months old) and a Manx cat that needs extra attention due to some health issues. I’m a very active person and frequently walk or run with my own dogs, so if you’re just looked for the occasional walk to get your pup’s energy out, I’m your gal! I also have a fenced in backyard so if you’re interested in a play date, message me and we can work something out! My boys love new friends. Unfortunately, my cat does not do well with other cats, but he LOVES dogs. He was a rescue as a kitten from the clinic I worked in, so he grew up around the dog boarding kennels and 100% thinks he’s one of them. I know Rover is for dogs and cats, but if you or anyone you know is looking for assistance with farm animals, I can help there too. I currently work in the dairy industry but have experience caring for all livestock species. I have BSA and MS degrees in Animal and Dairy Science. I’m available mostly during weekends and evenings during the week however my job is flexible and I can do drop in visits during my lunch, as well as on my way to work in the mornings. I’m happy to provide drop in visits and walks in client’s homes. As mentioned previously, I do have animals of my own and would be open to bringing a dog to my house if they are friendly and play well with others. I have a fenced in backyard that my dogs love. I cannot bring other cats into my house due to my own cat’s distaste for others, but he is fine with dogs.

“I can't recommend Kristy enough! She was great with my 16yo dog that has mobility issues and uses a harness to get around. I was nervous to leave her with someone since she needs special care but Kristy went above and beyond for her! I got lots of photos and updates while I was away. I would absolutely have my dog stay with Kristy again!”
“My dogs stayed for a while with Ann and they had a very good time. Ann sent us daily updates on our dogs and they always looked happy. I will definitely take them back in case I need.”
“Quincy had a nice time with Donna. She slept in a large crated area and played in her fenced yard. It was a great spot to board our dog when we stayed in a rental house in the area that did not allow dogs.”
“Francis was so happy at Erin’s home, he wasn’t ready to leave when I came to get him! Erin was quick to respond to all of my messages and made me feel like Francis was in great hands. I’m so happy to see him this way and I’ll definitely be using Erin again!”
“Communication throughout boarding was excellent! We had a meet and greet prior to boarding that helped me feel more at ease with my doggo's well-being. There were several walks, photo updates, and time with other dogs playing. I'd book with Nicole and Dexter again, if their schedule allows during future trips!”
“First time Rover user here and couldn’t have asked for anything better with Cassy. She took amazing care of my senior lab. He looked like he had the best time and got lots of love and play time. My daily pictures and videos allowed me to actually enjoy my vacation knowing my pup was in good care. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Joseph was wonderful! Very welcoming and friendly. After the meet and greet, I knew Sioux would be in good hands. Joseph made sure to send pictures and videos everyday and Sioux was tuckered out when I picked her up. I'm glad that I found a great local sitter and will be reaching out to Joseph for future vacations!”
“Tracy was great and very accommodating to us when we wanted to have day visits (picking up and dropping off) with our Geddy!! Geddy appeared to enjoy his time and was always in good spirits when we picked him up or dropped him off in the evenings!!! My husband and I would not hesitate to have Tracy watch Geddy again if we ever visited the area again!!!”
“Actually the best dog sitter i've had. She kept me updated on my dog's and sent pictures so i could see them . Definitely Recommend her if you easily stress about your fur babies.”
About: I am a caring and attentive individual who absolutely loves my pets and treats them like family. Located near the Foothills of the Smoky Mountains. My home is the perfect home away from home for you pet while you enjoy your vacation. I occasionally care for my neighbors pets with drop in visits at their home when they are out of town. I am home all day with my fur babies. I would be able to care for your pet and give it all the attention and love it needs. I have a fence, but not completely closed. We are working on getting that done soon. I do have a small fence closed in around my patio so the dogs can freely hang outside with me. During potty breaks I will make sure to have your pet out with a leash at all times. I have 2 friendly dogs as well. If your pet needs to be crated I can do that also.
“We are delighted to have found the sitter of our dreams! The property and home are a sporting dog's Disney World. Viviana has a loving nature with dogs and their owners! This is our first Rover.com experience. We will definitely re-book! ”
“Tamara was very punctual. Communication was too notch. She sent daily text updates, videos or pictures. My dogs got great socializing with her dogs. Great first time experience. I would recommend Tamara for dog sitting.”
About: I have cared for cats and dogs my entire life! My family had multiple pets at all times growing up. I am a cat mom myself with shared custody with my twin sister. I offer a pet stranger free home with my own cats staying with my sister while I have guest pets. 🐈 I first began pet sitting in college and primarily serviced young adults and college students. Thus, I have always offered an affordable rate so that regular people can obtain pet sitting services without having to pay expensive boarding fees. 🐶 Although I just started using Rover, I have been sitting for years through friends, family, and referrals! I can provide references for those I have serviced in the past that have not been through the app. 🐈 I am a former President, Vice President, and class representative of the Animal Legal Defense Fund at the University of Tennessee College of Law. I am available any day of the week for boarding. 🐈 Currently, I am not accepting bookings over 2 months in advance. 🐈 For drop in visits and walks, I am available Mon-Fri between 7:30-8:30 a.m., 11:30-1:30 p.m., and after 6 p.m. Available all day Saturday and Sunday beginning 9 a.m. 🐶 Drop off and pickups must occur between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. 🐈 Meet and greets must occur in the evening and are offered at Sutree Landing Park. Your pets become mine for a few days! I would care for them as if they were my own. I let pets staying in my home on the furniture and sleep in my bed. If you would like pictures of my home to see where your pet would be staying, feel free to ask! My personal pets vacate my home and stay with their other parent while I am sitting to eliminate conflicts with guest pets. 🐈 I send as many pictures as you want and I am available by text all day.
“Elexis was wonderful with Synna. She was kind, responsive, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. Synna was well cared for, and I felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely book with her again and recommend her to anyone needing a reliable sitter.”
“Somer did an amazing job looking after my 14-year-old beagle mix. It’s hard leaving a senior behind but Somer put my mind at ease. I’d recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Our Barton boy enjoyed every second of being there!! We received picture and video updates the whole time away and could really feel the love they poured into him. You can tell he misses his new friends so much already! 🖤”
About: I have two dogs, one is three and one is six months. I adore them and spoil them daily. My oldest has very high energy so I am used to getting the energy out! They love going swimming at the lake as well! Though we do not have a fenced in yard, they go for daily walks and have fun enrichment activities inside. I am currently in college, but I am available Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays to walk your dogs! I am also available to board your dog anytime! I am home pretty much all day everyday except for my hour class I have to attend Monday and Wednesday. I have a pretty set routine with my dogs, as I wake up early (6am) to let them both out, and again around 9. I am very attentive with my dogs, as I would be with yours! I make sure they are comfortable and have a nice place to lay and have food and water at their access. If they need to go out, I’m on it! I imagine how my dogs would feel if my dogs were going to a new place, and want to make them feel as loved and comfortable as possible, as new environments can be scary.
