“Kristy was so amazing! She communicated super well and sent lots of pics during our pups’ stay. I could tell she truly loves dogs and took the best care of ours while they were with her. I am super thankful that I knew they were in good hands while we were away. I would definitely board my dogs with her again.”

About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds through my work at a busy doggy daycare. I’m skilled in feeding, walking, administering medications, and providing plenty of love and attention. I understand dog behavior and safety, and I make sure every pet I care for feels happy, comfortable, and secure. From playtime and exercise to cuddles and companionship, I treat every dog like part of my own family. I’m an animal science major at UTK and a doggy daycare worker. I always have time for pups! I will make sure my availability is always up to date for you! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a secure apartment with a cozy space for indoor play and rest, and while my yard isn’t fenced, there’s a safe, dog-friendly park on property for walks and exercise. I provide a supervised, clean, and loving environment at all times, ensuring your dog feels happy, secure, and part of the family while in my care.
About: Hilarious pun because I just got a wagon and desperately want to fill it with dogs. Hi! I'm Marlee, I've been fostering and training dogs for about 5 years. Since I moved here I've just been solo with my Goob, and I'm ready to start taking care of dogs again!! While fostering I took care of every make, model, shape, and year of dog, so I can handle any furry friend you send me! I'm working from home at the moment and if im leaving the house I'm going somewhere dog friendly and in nature! I'll always have time to care for your dog!

I go on hikes several times a week, and would be more than happy to pile your pups in my (wag)on -sorry- and take them for a day time adventure!! Im also able to pet sit/board any days of the week. As I mentioned I'm home all the time so you can trust your dog will always be monitored, cared for, and entertained!!
“Very responsive and proactive with sending pictures/walking Stanley to give us peace of mind. Very thankful and appreciative of Joseph’s help. Our dog seemed very comfortable and happy with his care!”
“We had to travel overseas and we needed someone to look after our furbaby for over a month period while we were gone. I know it was a big commitment for her but Lauryn went above and beyond taking care of my dog. She sent us videos, pictures throughout and also checked with me for anything unusual. I could feel at ease even when I was away for so long. Thank you so much Lauryn. Dalgu is already looking forward to her next stay with you. 😁”
“Jenny has been taking care of our dog for over 2 years now. I don’t always have the time to write down a review narrative, but I just want to say we are so grateful to have found her. Matilda loves her, and we can enjoy our time away knowing that she is in excellent hands. Matilda has also made longtime friends and we enjoy the videos of her playing with other pets. Thank you so much Jenny for everything!”
“Katherine is amazing!! She took care of my dog over the weekend and kept me updated with pictures and brief messages. I know Kida was in good hands and highly recommend her to anyone.”
“We were very apprehensive about leaving Doodle Boy with anyone so far from home. The photo's that Penny texted were very calming, He seemed to be relaxed. We were very satisfied. Thanks again for taking good care of hiim.”
“Kathy kept my mini Aussie for 4 days while I was out of town and cared for him as if he were her own! He was happy and tuckered out when I picked him up....a huge relief for me!! She is a gem and I would use her exclusively for my sweet pup!!”
“Maggie loves going to Joan's house whenever we are on holiday. Joan takes such wonderful care of her and keeps us updated with pictures. We never have to worry about a thing. We would highly recommend Joan to anyone and we will certainly be having her watch Maggie in the future.”
“Lola came home happy and tired! I know she enjoyed having a yard to roam since she does not have one at home! Mary was attentive to her needs and monitored for when she needed her meds.”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from farm animals to household pets, including seniors and puppies/kittens. I’ve been a foster with Young-Williams Animal Center since 2019 and love providing a safe, happy home for animals who make our lives richer and more loving. I currently work an 8:30 AM–5:00 PM job with a one-hour lunch break and live just five minutes from the office. I also work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me added flexibility. I have a spare bedroom in my condo, and the space I provide depends on the animal’s size. For kittens, I often use the spare bathroom, keeping them warm with food, water, and a litter box nearby. For dogs, I set up their pen in the spare room with all their supplies. I also have a large fenced-in back patio where dogs can go outside, play, and run safely.
“What a great 1st time experience with Tamera for Dixie and Harley. We were so worried about leaving them. She sent videos and pictures which made us feel so good. They had so much fun they both are sound asleep right now. Would definitely recommend Tamera.”

“Brooke took the time to let my cat, Senga, get used to her and spent time each day letting her know she was not alone. By the end of my 4 day trip, Senga was not only coming out to see and sit with Brooke, she was talking her ear off and playing with toys. I am bery comfortable with Brooke and want to book her for my next trip!”
“Rachel took care of my cats for two weeks at my home while I am away for international travelling. My cats are typically scared of others for almost few weeks, but they like her very quickly. She did more than I requested to make my cats happy and share video and photo of them updating their status.”
“Crystal was amazing! The cats were well taken care of and she even took the time to understand the litter robot boxes whenever there was an issue. Lots of sweet photos and super easy to communicate with”
“First time using Rover and I’m so impressed! Becky was amazing! So nice and professional and clearly cares a lot about the animals she checks on. Thank you so much! :)”

About: I have always grown up with dogs, since I was a young child I have shared the responsibilities of caring for a family dog. We have always had Bernese Mountain Dogs, so I am particularly adept at caring for active, very large dogs. Growing up I always cared for friend's, family's, and neighbors dogs while they were away on trips, or busy with work. This gave me the ability to care for a diverse profile of dogs with diverse, individualized needs. I am responsible and will closely follow the instructions left to provide your animal with the care it requires. While my experience is primarily with dogs, I also have experience caring for cats for my friends and family as well. In addition to providing your pet with high-quality care, I will also ensure that it feels secure, safe, and loved, even in your temporary absence. I have experience with dogs with high- anxiety, specifically separation anxiety, and I know how to calm your pet in these scenarios. Being apart from your furry loved one can be a time of anxiety for both you and your pet, but I will be sure to provide exceptional care to ease the anxieties of all involved. Overall, I am extremely loving, caring, and responsible, and feel I am an excellent choice to care for your pet. I am currently a Physician Assistant student, so I am busy during most of the day from 8-4, however I have breaks and can stop by to let your dog out or have a romp with them if needed. Other than that, my evenings, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are entirely open, allowing me to dedicate much attention to your pet! I will be sure to accurately and closely follow all instructions that you leave regarding your pets care. I am comfortable with crating dogs if that is your desire. I am also quite adept at "pet proofing' your or my home before leaving, to ensure there is no trouble your animal could get into. My home has a fenced in yard and one very friendly Bernese Mountain Dog, though I could make arrangements for him to reside elsewhere during your pets stay if that is your desire.
“Emma was so responsive and reliable when I needed someone to drop in on my pup. I got lots of pictures and updates while I was away, which made the whole experience so much better. Emma put me at ease and I knew my pup was in great hands. Will definitely be booking her again!”
About: I am a crazy cat lady at heart. I have extreme patience with meddlesome, energetic, and curious cats. I let cats sleep in my bed with me when boarding and provide daily snuggles as if they were my own! 🐈🐈⬛
“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!”
“Allison is great! She faithfully visited Rowan twice a day and kept him sane. She took care of all his needs, but most importantly, she played with him and interacted with him for a substantial amount of time. Plus sending us photos, of course. We will definitely book with Allison again!”
“Thank you Elaina! Your visits made me less anxious about leaving our kitten behind on a weekend trip. Thank you for the photos and for spending time with our girl. :-)”
“1st time using Haley and rover. My boys are everything and leaving them always scares me esp bc 1 of then is diabetic and need insulin and the recommended feeding regime. Haley did great with them and sent me pics of the boys and was available to chat when I got home for my check in. Will be using her on a permanent basis.”
“Darby was a treasure! She took great care of my cat, playing & giving her affection, as well as going above and beyond keeping things nice in my home. Would definitely book again!”
“Oh, my pups were just so happy to see Jessi, and my younger dog who always barks with new people, did not bark at all! Jessi was very kind and had a calm demeanor with my senior pup and my anxious pup:) I will definitely request their help again!”
“Wonderful pet (cat) sitter! Olive was very comfortable with Olivia. Maybe too comfortable bossing her around begging for treats and scratches. 😹 Great communication and pics/videos sent to us too! Will book again. 👍🏻”

“We stopped in town for an event and needed dog care and Jenny was so accommodating. She is the go too dog watcher in the Knoxville area for a reason. Loved our dogs and sent us pictures while we we at the event. Thank you Jenny!!!”
“For the first time using Rover, it was an outstanding experience, all thanks to Kristy! She was timely responsive and very friendly. The booking was last minute and our dog has separation anxiety, which both didn’t seem to deter Kristy. Highly recommend Kristy to take care of your furry babies!”
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 :)
“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.”
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I bring calm confidence and genuine love to every stay. I also have hands-on training experience with several breeds — basic obedience, leash manners, and good house behavior, from spirited puppies to strong, high-energy dogs. I adapt to each dog's needs: daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, medications, and senior care with slower paces and special diets. Your dog will feel safe, understood, and truly at home with me. I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I love long walks — your dog will get plenty of them — and I practice yoga daily, which keeps me calm, patient, and present. I'm here for morning outings, midday breaks, and evening wind-downs, with consistent attention, timely meals, and lots of companionship in between. In my home, your dog becomes part of the family. I work from home, so there's always company, regular walks, playtime, and a cozy spot to rest. I follow your pet's routine closely — feeding, medications, and house rules — so they feel right at home. In your home, I offer drop-in visits and dog walking: fresh food and water, potty breaks, long walks, playtime, and lots of affection, plus tidy-up and photo updates so you always know how they're doing.

“All I can say is Kenzie is fantastic! This was my first time using Rover.com and prior to Kenzie watching my boy Rudy, I had lots of questions. Kenzie answered all of them (very quickly I might add), and really put my mind at ease. On the day when I brought him to her, they instantly connected! It was like old friends getting back together. She was very kind, welcoming, and loving to him and it was easily seen that she has a heart for animals. At that moment any reservations I had, disappeared! I felt completely comfortable knowing that he was in great and caring hands. It was a great experience and all I know is that if I ever need someone to watch Rudy again; Kenzie is the (only) one!”

I love a good game of tug o’ war, or whatever your pet has in store for that day. My favorite thing to do to connect with them is a good walk. It builds trust and connection.

I care for the pets in a client’s home with a holistic approach. I ask specific questions to make sure I understand the animal’s needs and routine before or upon arriving. I want to fit into the animal’s life as an asset to their wellbeing, not as a stressor working against it. I read or listen carefully to instruction to make sure I am well equipped to go above and beyond in loving your pets. They will be my first priority during the time they are in my care, rest assured.
About: I have grown up surrounded by animals my whole life. My parents have 4 dogs and 2 cats, and I have helped care for them in all phases of life.

I work Monday through Thursday, so my schedule those days is not very flexible. However, I am off Friday through Sunday and am available those days! I know leaving your pet in someone else’s care can be intimidating, but I promise I will care for your animal like it’s my own and give it all the attention and love it deserves. I will send as many (or as few) pictures as you need to know that your baby is in good hands!

“Kristy was so amazing! She communicated super well and sent lots of pics during our pups’ stay. I could tell she truly loves dogs and took the best care of ours while they were with her. I am super thankful that I knew they were in good hands while we were away. I would definitely board my dogs with her again.”
“Andrew is a great care taker of our senior dog. This was our 2nd booking with him and he did an amazing job. Fast communication, pick ups and drop offs are convenient and easy.”
“Erin was amazing with my dogs! Regular updates and pics, took them on adventures and played with them. Gave them all the snuggles and love we couldn't because we were traveling. I will 100% be using her again!”
“Elexis was amazing!! From the get go they communicated well and eased my mind when it came to knowing my pup was in good hands!! At the end of his boarding I could tell that he had an amazing stay!! So much love for this sitter!!”
About: Hilarious pun because I just got a wagon and desperately want to fill it with dogs. Hi! I'm Marlee, I've been fostering and training dogs for about 5 years. Since I moved here I've just been solo with my Goob, and I'm ready to start taking care of dogs again!! While fostering I took care of every make, model, shape, and year of dog, so I can handle any furry friend you send me! I'm working from home at the moment and if im leaving the house I'm going somewhere dog friendly and in nature! I'll always have time to care for your dog! I have completely open availability and im incredibly active, so your pup will always be doing something with me. I go on hikes several times a week, and would be more than happy to pile your pups in my (wag)on -sorry- and take them for a day time adventure!! Im also able to pet sit/board any days of the week. As I mentioned I'm home all the time so you can trust your dog will always be monitored, cared for, and entertained!!
“Very responsive and proactive with sending pictures/walking Stanley to give us peace of mind. Very thankful and appreciative of Joseph’s help. Our dog seemed very comfortable and happy with his care!”
“We had to travel overseas and we needed someone to look after our furbaby for over a month period while we were gone. I know it was a big commitment for her but Lauryn went above and beyond taking care of my dog. She sent us videos, pictures throughout and also checked with me for anything unusual. I could feel at ease even when I was away for so long. Thank you so much Lauryn. Dalgu is already looking forward to her next stay with you. 😁”
“Jenny has been taking care of our dog for over 2 years now. I don’t always have the time to write down a review narrative, but I just want to say we are so grateful to have found her. Matilda loves her, and we can enjoy our time away knowing that she is in excellent hands. Matilda has also made longtime friends and we enjoy the videos of her playing with other pets. Thank you so much Jenny for everything!”
“Katherine is amazing!! She took care of my dog over the weekend and kept me updated with pictures and brief messages. I know Kida was in good hands and highly recommend her to anyone.”
“What a great 1st time experience with Tamera for Dixie and Harley. We were so worried about leaving them. She sent videos and pictures which made us feel so good. They had so much fun they both are sound asleep right now. Would definitely recommend Tamera.”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Drop off and pick up went very smoothly. I could tell my pup had a great time with Kane and his dogs. Highly recommend working with Kane for any future Pet stays/needs. Kane was also very accommodating due to Rufus staying with him over the Christmas/Holiday break. Thank you, Kane!”
“This was our second time using Jordyn as a sitter. She has been super easy to work with and I can tell that my dog is in great hands! Ginger was so excited when we pulled in the driveway and could not get in the door fast enough which says a lot!!! Thank you!!!”
“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! 🖤”
“Here’s a warmer and more polished version: Sallie was the best sitter we’ve ever had on Rover! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures and thoughtful messages about how Yumi was doing, how she was eating, and even shared her favorite spots around her place. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Yumi was in such caring hands. We highly recommend Sallie to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our baby!”
“Wonderful experience with Daniella! Highly recommend her especially if you need reassurance your pet child is doing ok. She’s incredible at communication and sends pictures and videos often!”
“Katie was absolutely wonderful with my Maltese dog Maddy, She was attentive, kind, and really took the time to make sure my dog felt safe and settled. I loved how communicative she was throughout the stay—sending updates and little notes that helped me relax knowing Maddy was in good hands. It’s clear Katie genuinely cares about animals, and Maddy picked up on that immediately. She came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Katie again, and I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone warm, reliable, and truly attuned to pets’ needs. Thank you, Katie—you were amazing”
