“Sarah was the perfect choice for our dogs. You can tell that she really loves taking care of animals. She did a fantastic job boarding and working with our two Dachshunds (Polly and Oscar). One of our dogs was never boarded, and had little experience around other dogs. She handled that with ease. She acclimated him with her dogs, and it looked like he had a blast. She sent us plenty of updates that kept us from worrying about how the pups were doing. We came from out of town so we wish she was closer to us. We would definitely use her again, and recommend her to anyone.”
“Hazel had a great time at Caillynn’s while we were away two weekends in a row. Caillynn was super responsive and accommodating for adjusting my pick up time when my flight was massively delayed. Received photos while we were away and regular updates. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“What a wonderful experience! Prior to booking, Mary arranged a meet and greet to ensure we were a good fit on both ends. I was out of town for 5 days and knowing that Sage was being so well loved and cared for made traveling so much easier. I got multiple pictures and updates thru the day which puts a dog mom at ease. I would 100 percent book Mary ( and her family) again and would highly recommend you do as well. They ALL treated her as a part of their family, they have a large fenced in back yard which is reassuring if your dog does not prefer other animals. Thank you Mary, Bob, and Ava for loving my girl!”
“What a wonderful experience! Joan’s communicating was top notch from our initial conversation. Her calm and loving demeanor with my dogs and my family gave us a sense of comfort before we even left her doorstep. Joan had nothing but kind words and sweet insight for us. My pups had a lovey stay. Highly recommend. Thank you Joan!”
“We had a negative experience boarding our fur baby at a facility, but our Molly had a GREAT experience with Daniella! We had a meet and greet a few days beforehand and when we came to drop her off for the week, Molly could not wait to get out of the car. She was excited to be there—which made it so much easier to leave her. She loved playing with other doggy friends and I know she loved the attention from Danni’s boys as well (we have 5, so she is used to a lot of kids being around). We have not left her a lot, so I was a little anxious, but Danni sent us plenty of pics and videos to let us know she was doing well. We will DEFINITELY call her again when we need to leave our Molly!”
“Jennifer was awesome! She sent photos and really took care of my 2 pups! They were very worn out when they got home from all the fun they had! We will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Maisey did great with Keturah. It was our first time leaving her with someone besides family, and she did fantastic. We got a mid week update and learned that she was living large and had new friends. It really put me at ease. Overall, great experience.”
“Stephanie is incredibly kind and the perfect sitter for our Boston terrier! Her home was inviting and so clean. This is the person you want watching your dog! We will use her again next time we book on Rover.”
“Victoria and Charles were kind and welcoming as always and Buttercup always leaves their place so happy. They are lovely and treat my baby like their own. I can't thank them enough ❤️”
“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!”
About: I go beyond basic pet sitting by building trust with both pets and owners. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s helping reinforce puppy training, keeping up with high-energy dogs, or providing calm, compassionate care for senior pets, I always make sure your pet feels cared for and comfortable. I’m currently studying for my physical therapy boards, which allows me to be home throughout the day and have a very flexible schedule for pet care. Because of this, I’m able to provide consistent attention, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feedings, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals on schedule, and, of course, lots of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away.
“Sandra was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Stayed in communication to update how well MJ was doing. Loves the pics she sent. He really enjoyed the weekend! Would def book with Sandra again”
“Michelle is a wonderful pet sitter. She send me texts and pictures daily about how my dog was doing. Michelle gave me peace of mind knowing my dog is safe, happy and well take care of.”

Let’s also have access to a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play. I ensure the pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of attention throughout the day.
“Shawna was wonderful!! She was very quick to respond to messages and sent a lot of pictures of my buddy. It was really nice to have a peace of mind that my dog was in such good hands while I was out of town. 10 out of 10 recommend!!”

“Great kitty mom, cats happy, well fed, litter boxes clean -- and she proactively addresses that occasional hairball issue. Winchester and Indigo wouldn't trade her for all the treats in the cat treat aisle!”
“Stephanie is wonderful and went above and beyond with our cats! She vacuumed, swept the floor and even washed out the food bowls so that we got home to a clean house and happy kitties!”
“I have booked Jazzy twice and she has been amazing with my two cats ! She communicated with me when checking on them, sent me pictures, and made sure that they were taken care of. Will definitely be booking her again!”
“Jasmine was amazing, once again! The cats look happy and that’s the most I can ask for. She even brought in our mail and packages, which was super helpful due to all of the holiday mail. Will use her again in the future! I knew my cats were cared for the entire time we were gone for the holidays.”
About: Hi! My name is Beth! I absolutely love animals! My husband and I have four dogs and four cats that we care for. They are our babies! So, I know how important getting the best care for your fur babies is! I can walk, feed, play or just check in for a potty break if need be. I had an older dog that had to take medicine every day for cancer, sadly he has passed on. So I am also able to give medicine if that's what your baby needs. I am also available to check on cats. I work as a school photographer, so if you need pictures of your babies while I am caring for them I will be more than happy to provide that! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask! I work a Monday through Friday job, usually until about 5pm. So I am available for drop-ins and walks, I am available anytime on Saturday and Sunday, and then Monday through Friday in the evenings or really early mornings. I unfortunately cannot care for anymore in my home, especially since I have an over protective pit mix who is very jealous. However in the clients home, I am very respectful and a people pleaser. I will do exactly as directed to the very best of my ability.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, from 10-pound lap dogs to 150-pound large breeds. I currently own two cats and have previously cared for a pit bull mix, miniature schnauzer, toy poodle, and many other pets over the years. I have experience with senior pets, anxious/reactive animals, and administering medications both through food and oral syringes. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets at once and have cared for up to five dogs and one cat at the same time. I truly love spending time with animals and enjoy taking dogs on walks and jogs, playing with them, and giving them plenty of affection and attention. I’m dependable, communicative, and always strive to make both pets and owners feel safe and comfortable while in my care.
“Kristen did a great job as always. She communicated well; sent pictures; did what I expected, and most importantly, gave me peace of mind taking care of my cat and my home while away. Thanks so much Kristen!”
About: Hey there! I'm your go-to pet sitter with a decade of experience working with all kinds of furry friends. From dogs to cats, I've got you covered. Need medication administration? No problem! With my expertise, your pets are in safe hands. When I'm not caring for your adorable companions, you can find me enjoying the company of my own two dogs and three cats. And guess what? I've got a fantastic fenced-in yard perfect for playtime! Let's give your pets the love and care they deserve. I’m currently a student at the University of Tennessee so I am available most afternoons and very early mornings. I also am home every evening for the entire night so overnight boarding is available. I am also completely free on weekends so if you want to have a date night, a shopping run, or just need someone to watch your babies while you take a well deserved nap, I got you! At home pets will be taken care of by preference or directions from the pet owner. I have multiple rooms in the house so if there are some older pals or some friends that are just a little more introverted, they will be made to feel as comfortable as possible with some one on one time to avoid over stimulation. I can take them on walks or let them play in the yard alone with my supervision. For those fluffy balls of energy that need more stimulation, my dogs and cats LOVE to play and run to their hearts content! My dogs are very social and have their whole lives experience playing and meeting new animals! Whether it’s playtime and long walks or cuddles and naps I am able to cater to your pets needs so that you can sit back and relax worry free!
About: Hi! I offer an in-home boarding experience set on a beautiful 9-acre horse farm, designed to provide a fun, safe, and enriching stay for your furry family members. With a tropical theme and a cozy, home-like atmosphere, we ensure that every dog feels comfortable and loved during their visit. Our home features four spacious 6’x4’ kennels equipped with luxury cots, along with a large fenced-in dog area for plenty of off-leash fun. During the day, dogs enjoy lounging in our home, socializing, and engaging in enrichment activities such as Kongs, lick mats, splash pads, and bubble play. At night, they rest in their spacious kennels unless special accommodations are needed for non-crate-trained dogs. We often have multiple guests at a time, so your dog will have the chance to make new friends during their stay. With a background as an animal health technician and hands-on experience managing our farm, I have extensive knowledge in animal care and well-being. I work a remote job, allowing me to be home most of the day. However, I do leave for a few hours each day, and occasionally, we may be gone for a full day for family outings. During these times, dogs stay comfortable and secure in their kennels with access to enrichment activities. With personalized care, ample playtime, and a stress-free environment, our home is the perfect retreat for your pup while you’re away! **we do leave the house for family events , outings and errands. We may be gone for full days on weekends to our children's events, games, sporting games appointments** I work mostly from home. Dogs are welcome to play outside on our fenced farm or hang out with me while I work! Dogs are supervised outside at all times. We provide areas to separate dogs if needed, we have extra kennels as well. We send pictures and videos and you're welcome to call/message to check in on your pet at anytime.
“Louisa has been helping out with my dogs for a couple months now and she has taken excellent care of them when I am at work or out of town.

I will continue to use Louisa and highly recommend her to anyone in need!”
About: I am a dependable and experienced pet sitter with over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. As someone who has grown up with and owned dogs, I understand the importance of providing pets with consistent care, attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have regularly pet sat for neighbors and teammates, helping with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and maintaining pets’ daily routines. I am comfortable working with both large and small breeds and understand that every dog has unique needs and energy levels. I am currently taking supplemental online courses and am working part-time remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for and play with your fur babies throughout the day! I live on 3 acres of property, giving dogs plenty of space to explore, exercise, and enjoy the outdoors under supervision. While the yard is not fenced, I prioritize safety and can keep dogs leashed, closely monitored, or crated when needed. I make sure pets receive daily walks, regular playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. For dogs that enjoy being active, I also occasionally take them on hikes to provide additional exercise and enrichment. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s normal routine and will follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any special care requests provided by the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their home and pets with the utmost respect, ensuring pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving attentive care. My goal is always to make pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away.

“Jan was able to watch Maddie for doggie daycare on short notice. She has a great set up for yard access and also being able to hang out in the cool of the A/C on a comfy couch. It made my day with my family so much better knowing she was being looked after and had Jan’s company while being in a different environment. I would definitely recommend her and I would leave Maddie in her care again if I needed to.”
“Jeanie was FANTASTIC with our boy! I had to look for doggy daycare for our young puppy rather last minute and she was so sweet and accommodating. We got lots of pictures of him during his stay. Our little guy had a blast and got lots of love and attention. When we arrived, his crate was all folded up and all of his belongings were packed up and ready for us to pick him up. She’s a real dog-lover and is great with potty training pups. We would definitely book with Jeanie again if needed. 10/5 stars.”
“Joan is absolutely wonderful! It was puppy love at first sight. My dog spent three days with her. She sent pictures! My dog was very well loved, and well cared for. She takes him on walks during the day. She has a lovely home, which allows him to do his zoomies. My dog took to her instantly, and so did I. She’s a very loving and caring woman. I would highly recommend Joan for your pet sitting needs. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Bennie had the best time at Sandra’s house! It was my first time using the app and I was little nervous but Sandra sent plenty of pictures and updates so it made feel better.”
“Mary was a wonderful caregiver for our dog! It was our first time using Rover and things couldn't have been better. Mary sent updates during the day, kept our pup entertained with walks, and gave him lots of TLC. We'd love to have Mary watch him again when we're in the Knoxville area.”
About: I have had a dog in my life since age 6. I have always had rescue dogs and as many as 8 on a large property. I have lost all but one and don't know if I can take the heartbreak again. To provide boarding or daycare options, my 'dog fix' will be fulfilled and serve your needs also. I have never met a dog that didn't like me, all dogs I have met engage with me quickly. I am a RN and have performed CPR on one of my dogs before bringing him back to life. I give meds to my dog now and have given injections to my dogs in the past. I walk daily and if your dog wants to join me, perfect! I work from home and an empty nester. I am home most afternoons and evenings and will adjust my schedule to be here with your fur kid without large gaps in time. I have a fenced backyard with a doggie door to the backyard if your dog knows how to use one. My neighbor is small with sidewalks for safety. I have a large and medium crate if your dog requires one no need to bring it. They can be on the couch or even sleep in the bed if that is what they are used to. I have a covered patio to protect from the weather elements so your dog can lay outside and enjoy fresh air. Water will be available outside also.
About: Medically retired Veteran and stay at home dad with lots of time on my hands to care for fur kids and keep a watchful eye on them. I have dog sat for friends' pets and personal pets that I've owned for over 30 years. I don't currently have another job. So, aside from medical appointments, I don't have any issues with daily or weekly routines. I should be able to conform to any and all needs. I always care for every pet as though that pet were my own. I know how sensitive each pet can be, so I try my best to keep that in mind when dealing with someone else's pet.
About: I am an experienced pet owner! I grew up with dogs, ferrets, snakes, lizards, fish, frogs, parakeets, and much more. I also volunteered a lot of my time caring for, and walking dogs at the animal shelter. Nothing brings me greater joy than watching my friends’ fur babies when they are out of town (which they frequently ask me to do!). I am the perfect person to watch your fur baby! I work from home, so I can give your baby 24/7 love and attention. I am also a HUGE animal lover. I have excellent communication skills, so you will never have to wonder how your baby is doing - I’ll be sending you daily updates while they are in my care. :) I treat every pet like family! I let them roam freely (depending on your preference!), and make sure they go potty every few hours. I live in an apartment, and since I work from home they will be getting ‘round the clock care, supervision, and attention!
“Zoe and her husband were perfect for my dog Gus. I had a last-minute need for someone to watch him and they were very flexible with me. I know my dog enjoyed playing with their dogs too. Thank you guys so much!!”

About: I’ve always had and loved dogs! I have a soft spot in my heart for doggies. I would keep my friends and family’s dogs when they would go out of town. These dogs have been all shapes and sizes! Golden retriever, Rottweiler, Pit mix, Pug, Yellow Lab, Jack Russell, and more! I also have volunteered at Young Williams Animal Shelter walking and caring for dogs. I am a teacher so I have my summers off and will be readily available to care for your fur baby. I am currently raising a 5 month old Golden Retriever of my own! I am a teacher currently off for the summer so I have plenty of time to play and love on dogs! I am available any day of the week for boarding as well as walks! My whole summer is revolving around taking care of my teenaged golden! We have been spending our days going to the pool, going on walks, training, playing fetch, and cuddling! I have a fenced in yard with a playful teenage golden who is ready to make friends. He is super friendly. I also have crates and a play pen inside for dogs to play in without having to free roam the house. I sometimes will take the dogs to our boat on the lake or my in-law’s pool if they enjoy water!
About: Over the past 11 years, I have dedicated myself to the lifelong care of my two dogs, gaining an intimate understanding of canine development from puppyhood through their senior years.

I am committed to bringing this same level of attentive, high-standard care to your pets, ensuring their health and emotional well-being are always the top priority. I work full-time remote so I can care for your pets almost on a 24/7 basis guaranteeing that they are looked after. I can take breaks whenever as needed, so I can fully tailor to your pets' potty schedule. I have a fenced in backyard for your pets to freely roam outside. While inside, we don't restrict any area from pets. We have two dogs to keep your pets company.

Whether it's a playful pup or any other adorable critter, I make it my mission to create a stress-free and joyful experience for them.

I will be with your pet anywhere they go and make sure they are safe and friendly with other pets if we encounter them! I will play and exercise with them so they are not as hyper for you when you come home!

I have experience with staying overnight and also just drop ins or day walking. I really care for the animals and love each personality they each have.

I like to listen to the clients instructions because every household and every dog is different and has different needs so making sure I follow their rules is the most important thing.
About: I was a care taker of a dog for 12 years so I have plenty of experience taking care of dogs and taking dogs on walks. I also was a care taker of a cat for 5 years. I was in charge of giving the cat food, water, and doing the cat’s litter box. I have been pet sitting/ house sitting for almost two years and have done 11 house sitting jobs. I am a teacher so mostly available in the mornings, afternoon, and evenings except on. I’m available on weekends too. I’m also willing to spend the night to make sure your pet gets the best care. I have a ton of experience with keeping dogs safe as I use to care for my dog for 12 years. I make sure they don’t eat anything that is unhealthy for me and I make sure they don’t get in any danger

“Our dog is a 35 lb, nervous mix breed who isn’t used to anyone besides her moms walking her. Stephanie was patient with Edith and gained her trust quickly. Not to mention exactly on time for both of Edie’s walks. She followed our wishes to the tee. We will definitely book with Stephanie again.”

“Sarah was the perfect choice for our dogs. You can tell that she really loves taking care of animals. She did a fantastic job boarding and working with our two Dachshunds (Polly and Oscar). One of our dogs was never boarded, and had little experience around other dogs. She handled that with ease. She acclimated him with her dogs, and it looked like he had a blast. She sent us plenty of updates that kept us from worrying about how the pups were doing. We came from out of town so we wish she was closer to us. We would definitely use her again, and recommend her to anyone.”
“Hazel had a great time at Caillynn’s while we were away two weekends in a row. Caillynn was super responsive and accommodating for adjusting my pick up time when my flight was massively delayed. Received photos while we were away and regular updates. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Michael, Lisa and their whole family were wonderful. Our little girl had never stayed away from home before and she seemed to really enjoy being with them. We will definitely want our little girl to stay with them again.”
“Allyson and Tyler were so great with Daisy!! They truly treated her like family and she had such a great time playing with the other dogs!! Such a better experience for her than traditional boarding.. I can tell by her mood after I picked her up that she had a great time staying at their house! I will definitely be booking with them for the future !”
“We had a negative experience boarding our fur baby at a facility, but our Molly had a GREAT experience with Daniella! We had a meet and greet a few days beforehand and when we came to drop her off for the week, Molly could not wait to get out of the car. She was excited to be there—which made it so much easier to leave her. She loved playing with other doggy friends and I know she loved the attention from Danni’s boys as well (we have 5, so she is used to a lot of kids being around). We have not left her a lot, so I was a little anxious, but Danni sent us plenty of pics and videos to let us know she was doing well. We will DEFINITELY call her again when we need to leave our Molly!”
“Jennifer was awesome! She sent photos and really took care of my 2 pups! They were very worn out when they got home from all the fun they had! We will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Stephanie is incredibly kind and the perfect sitter for our Boston terrier! Her home was inviting and so clean. This is the person you want watching your dog! We will use her again next time we book on Rover.”
“Jeanie was absolutely wonderful. This is our first time using Rover and we are so thankful that it introduced us to Jeanie. We have never received so many photos and updates about our 2 dogs, it was amazing. Our dogs relaxed and sunbathed on her porch, played with the other dogs, and even got some snuggles. We cannot thank Jeanie enough for being available on such short notice and for the care she gave our 2 dogs. Jeanie is now our go-to for any future needs. Thank you!!!!”
“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!”
About: I go beyond basic pet sitting by building trust with both pets and owners. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s helping reinforce puppy training, keeping up with high-energy dogs, or providing calm, compassionate care for senior pets, I always make sure your pet feels cared for and comfortable. I’m currently studying for my physical therapy boards, which allows me to be home throughout the day and have a very flexible schedule for pet care. Because of this, I’m able to provide consistent attention, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feedings, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals on schedule, and, of course, lots of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away.
“Rachel was outstanding in caring for my pup on our two week vacation! She made us feel very comfortable and connected to our furbaby with her photos, videos, and communication. My dog loves to see her pups and to run with them in her big backyard. I count myself lucky to have found Rachel as a newcomer to Knoxville!”
“Shawna was wonderful!! She was very quick to respond to messages and sent a lot of pictures of my buddy. It was really nice to have a peace of mind that my dog was in such good hands while I was out of town. 10 out of 10 recommend!!”
“It was my first time leaving my baby girl while I went out of town for my daughter’s basketball tournament, and I was definitely nervous. But finding Kaylee was truly a blessing. She immediately put my mind at ease—sending pictures multiple times a day and keeping great communication throughout. Because of her, I was actually able to relax and enjoy the tournament without worrying. Kaylee is amazing, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for your fur baby like their own.”
“Karen made such a great home away from home for our 2 collies that they did not want to leave when we picked them up! It was the first time leaving them in years and we are so happy to have found Karen because we knew they were getting the best 1 on 1 care and attention! She sent us updates and pictures while we were away and they got to go on a lot of walks which made us so happy to hear! 1 of our collies has lots of health issues but this was not a problem for Karen while we were on vacation. Thank you again!!”
