“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”
“Jeanie was awesome to work with! She took our dog, Penny, on short notice. She was very engaging with us and responded to all of our questions in a timely manner. She made us feel very comfortable leaving Penny with her for the week. She continually updated us with pictures and short commentary about Penny’s stay. We could tell through the updates that Penny was enjoying herself. Penny is usually very reserved around strangers but she took to Jeanie very quickly. We would not hesitate to bring Penny back!”

“Daniella was great! We were nervous to leave our young pup for the first time, but she was so reassuring. She kept us updated with several photos and videos daily while we were away! We were so grateful for that and really appreciated her taking care of her. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet.”

“Always happy when Jill is available to check in on our girls. This time, we had some packages arrive early unexpectedly (including a huge Chewy box - sorry Jill!) and she brought them in for us. I always know my house and pets will be taken care of with her.”
“Jeanie was so good with my pets! I asked her to do two drop-ins per day while I was away. She did everything that was needed for my dogs and sent me really great pictures of my dogs, which made me feel confident that they were taken good care of while I was gone.”
“Beverly dropped in to feed our 3 Golden retrievers. She was eager to help on short notice which made our lives so much easier. She cooked some chicken for them, fed them according to their specific dietary needs and sent detailed feedback on how dinner went. I can definitely recommend Beverly for drop in visits to help give you peace of mind. Thanks Beverly for being so communicative and for sending a pic of Ben having dinner!”
“Rebecca looked after my cats so well, I really appreciated her services! I went out of town to attend my sibling’s wedding and I was so glad I didn’t have to worry about my pets while enjoying time with my family.

None of the 3 has been alone for a protracted period of time let alone been boarded. We are so thankful to have had Naomi take such good care of our fur babies. She left our home in great shape, and collected our mail and delivered packages which was icing on the cake. We highly recommend her and will seek her out if we go out of town again.”
“Cassandra was absolutely wonderful with my kitty! She was so patient with my shy girl, sent pictures and videos every day, and took amazing care of her. I 10/10 recommend her for pet care!!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was about 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have often relied on me to check in, feed, and spend time with their cats while they’re away. I also have a cat of my own, so I’m used to the daily routine and know that every cat has its own personality. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or just wants a quiet companion while you’re gone, I’m happy to make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for.
About: Hey y'all! I have a love for animals and I'm looking for pets to hang out with and care for while I'm in school and working a full time job. I'm going to school to get my veterinary technician license with Penn Foster. Luckily, it's a strictly online school! I'm also a full-time Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital, so I have plenty of experience with caring for animals. Friends and family have always considered me very trustworthy with their pets since I was young! I can't remember a time when I didn't love animals. I have been pet sitting for a few years for my family and parents' coworkers, but I thought I would step it up and try Rover! I currently work at an animal hospital and I previously worked at a doggy daycare. All of this while also being in school to get my license! These experiences have helped me gain important skills and qualifications to take care of any pet! Some of the skills that make me qualified include: -Giving oral medication -Injectable medication -Senior dog experience -First Aid -Bathing -Walking -Providing boarding care (keeping up with food, water, and playtime) -and of course I'm experienced with providing a whole lotta love! I'm currently working around 32-36 hours a week at an animal hospital, which means I work long hours occasionally, but I will still make plenty of time to stay with your fur babies and watch over them before and after work. I make sure to provide as much social and/or physical playtime for your pets when I am taking care of them! Since I do work long hours this would mean I can drive over during my lunch break to prove the proper care.
“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. 👍🏻”
About: With over 5 years of personal experience caring for my own cat, I understand the needs of feline friends. From feeding and maintaining a clean litter box to administering medicine when needed, I’ve handled it all. Additionally, I've completed multiple cat sitting jobs, ensuring the cats are well-fed, healthy, and happy while their owners are away. Your cat will be in caring, experienced hands with me!
“Oh my goodness Megan C. Is the best! She took wonderful care of our cats and respected our home over our week long vacation. She communicated with us about the important and not important details of her visits. We came home to 2 very happy cats, clean litter boxes, a beautiful note and pictures of our babies while we were gone. We will definitely be using her again whether it’s for just a day or another 8 day getaway!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Norris
“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.”
“Bella's first stay went very well, Daniella took excellent care of our pup and updated us about how she was doing and sent us pictures. Bella had fun and felt comfortable. We'll be back soon:). Thanks, Daniella!”
“Caillynns place is perfect and she's taken great care of our dog. He loves it there. Big yard and plenty of space to run around, and a couple who takes great care of him. Highly recommend. Thank you!”
“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.”
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.
“Jenny was absolutely amazing with my super active dog milo! She has a big back yard where he and the other dogs played. She made sure to send me lots of pictures throughout the day! I cannot thank you enough Jenny!”
About: I have over 12 years of pet care experience, working with puppies all the way to attentive senior care. My expertise in puppy training allows me to instill good behavior and obedience from a young age, while my senior care skills ensure that older pets receive the extra love and attention they need. Pet owners have trusted me time and again to provide reliable and compassionate care for their beloved animals, making me a standout sitter in the community. While I'm currently unemployed and preparing for my upcoming move to a new job and apartment, I have ample time and flexibility in my daily routine to provide dedicated pet care. It's important to me to make the most of this transitional period by offering my services to pet owners who need assistance. I can give their pets the attention, care, and love they deserve during this time while I'm available. Once I start my new job and settle into the new apartment, I'll reassess my schedule and explore ways to continue supporting pet care For pet sitting in my home, I prioritize safety and comfort. I have a secure, pet-friendly environment with designated spaces for pets to play and rest. I ensure there are no hazardous items within their reach and provide regular supervision to avoid any accidents. Additionally, I follow any specific dietary or medical requirements your pet may have, ensuring they receive proper care and attention. When caring for pets in my client's home, I focus on creating a familiar and stress-free environment. I'll always adhere to their usual routines, such as feeding schedules, walks, and playtime activities, to maintain a sense of normalcy for the pets. I take extra precautions to secure the client's home during my visits, ensuring the safety of both the pets and the property.
About: I’ve had different dogs in my life. I enjoy being with them. I give them baths and treats I do some grooming but mostly baths. I like to take them on walks at seven island bird park. I am currently working full time at a Mother’s Day out. I will have plenty of time to spend with your puppies! I like to meet new friends including furry ones they bring joy and excitement to my life. When I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life as I was growing up I wanted to be a vet. I always have a special place for dogs in my heart. They will be loved and cared for like they are my own. I don’t have a fence in yard I have an underground fence. I have a big yard that they can play in I have 2 furry friends that they can play with.
“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.”
“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.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was in college. I’ve been looking after pups ever since. My current best friend is a theee-legged mutt named Jeff and he loves when company comes over. I’m a freelance editor who works from home so I set my own schedule. I keep a pretty regular routine with my own dog. We shouldn’t have any trouble adapting to your pet’s needs. I have a big fenced in backyard and can do most of my work from the screeened in porch. That’s nice because it lets me keep an eye on the pooch while also feeling less like a cave hermit hunched over a keyboard all day.
“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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: There isn’t a time I can remember that I didn’t have pets. I’ve always loved caring for animals and I’m happy to extend this love and experience to caring for your pets as well! Currently, my schedule is widely available and I could spend as much time as needed with your pets. I am available every morning, all afternoons except Thursdays, and every evening. I’m also available on weekends! I have three loving cats and one very large, wonderful dog! My backyard is entirely fenced in and is complete with a wide selection of sticks from the surrounding woods. My pets are friendly and I enjoy doing necessary care tasks like feeding and grooming my pets all the way to special care when needed like medication distribution and separating pets for feeding to ensure correct portion and food.
About: **Flexible with negotiating rate through the app for stays longer than 4 days** I'm a passionate pet sitter with a profound love for animals. As a seasoned pet owner with over 12 years of pet sitting experience, I take joy in the companionship that our furry friends bring. I understand the significance of having a reliable, caring, and responsible caregiver for your furry family members while you're away, and that's exactly what I strive to be! Working from home 100% of the time allows me to offer undivided attention to your pets, ensuring they receive all the affection and care they deserve. As a pet sitter, I pride myself on being attentive, patient, and understanding of each animal's unique needs and personalities. 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. Your pet's well-being and happiness are always my top priorities. I currently have no pets of my own so your furry babies would be my primary focus. My goal is always to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for your beloved furry babies to feel right at home. Whether caring for pets in my home or taking them for walks around your residence, I go above and beyond to ensure their well-being and happiness. I live on an acre of land and although it is not fenced-in I do have a 25 and 50 foot lead that can accommodate to getting out to stretch their legs on occasions throughout the day and play. When staying in my home, your pets become a part of my family and I will treat them with the same safety measures I would take if they were my own. I offer a warm and welcoming space where they can relax, play, and enjoy a stress-free stay. My home is pet-friendly, with designated areas for rest and play, and I provide all the necessary amenities to make them feel at ease. If needed, I am able to make regular visits to your residence, ensuring your pets maintain their daily routines, familiarity with their surroundings, and feel secure in their own environment. During these visits, I engage in interactive playtime, provide nourishing meals, administer any required medications with precision, and handle any other specific needs your pets may have.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Norris
About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life, especially dogs and cats. Friends and neighbors have consistently relied on me to check in, feed, walk, and spend time with their pets while they’re away. I also have pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to keep routines consistent and make animals feel safe and comfortable. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality, whether that means giving an energetic dog a good walk or taking the time to earn the trust of a more reserved cat. I’m reliable, detail oriented, and committed to making sure every pet is well cared for and gets the attention they deserve. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. I’m available for dog walking, drop in visits, and house sitting. Because my work schedule varies, I can often work around your pet’s normal routine whether that means early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care. My goal is to keep your pet’s schedule as normal and stress free as possible while you’re away. I focus on providing care in your pet’s own home where they’re most comfortable. I’m available for house sitting, drop in visits, and dog walking. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions you provide. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, care, and consistency while you’re away.

About: I have had dogs all of my life. I have had small Jack Russells to large German Shepards, hunting breeds, purebreds and pound puppies. I have helped raise Brittany puppies and cared for senior dogs. Dogs always seem to attach themselves to me; partly because I am always loving on them and also because I am calm around them. I work from home so am available to take multiple walks throughout the day and play with them if they are high energy dogs. I am extremely flexible with your dogs needs or if there are special requests. Please don’t hesitate to ask. I will do my best to give your pet the best experience away from home and to treat them like my own. I work from home but when I am caring for your pet I make them the priority. I love getting to know them and their personalities. I don’t have a fenced yard so dogs are kept on a leash unless they are trained to follow commands. I try to give them the best experience in outdoor play within safe guidelines. When in a clients home I will typically try to keep your dog active with play or outdoor activities. They will also get lots of belly rubs and butt scratches. I do try to keep everything else consistent with their routine such as feedings and potty breaks. I try to never be gone more than a few hours at a time especially when getting to know your dog.

About: (PSA - I’m married! So if you don’t mind a couple watching your pets, we’ll be more than happy to serve you! The below agreement will still apply, of course; there’s just a second set of hands. I can also watch your home and pets solo if that’s what you prefer. 🥰) Home/Pet Owner Satisfaction Agreement: - My personal motto is "Leave it better than you found it." - Your home will be taken care as if it was my own. - I will do light cleaning and even landscaping if needed, so your home stays well kept. - Your pets will receive the attention they deserve. - I will do my absolute best to make sure their daily routine stays the same as if you were home. - I will send you all the pictures and updates, so you can have peace of mind that your pets are happy, safe, and well taken care of. - If you ask me to do something, it will get done. - When you return home, you'll be able to rest immediately because your home will be clean and your pets happy (though definitely excited to see you again!). I always don't trust people easily, and I usually rely on myself a lot to get things done. So it'd be scary for me to have a stranger taking care of my home and pets. I'd worry constantly over my furry family. That's why I try to immediately put you at ease during our initial conversation and respect your home and pet(s). I grew up with pets (hence the 20 years of experience), so I am definitely an animal lover.

After reading the reviews on my profile and browsing the photo gallery (Get ready for cuteness overload and not from me!), here's how you can work with me: 1. Send me a message. 2. In that message, tell me about your pets, their needs, and what dates you'll be gone. 3. We'll adjust the pricing if needed. 4. Before finalizing the booking, I will meet you and your pet(s) in your home for you to walk me through the daily routine and see if we're a good fit. 5. If both parties agree, we confirm the booking. It's that easy! Thank you so much in advance for trusting me with your home and pet(s)! In return, I will strive to take the best care of your home and pet(s). So that you won't loose any sleep worrying if they're okay or not. That way, you can actually enjoy your vacation or fully focus on business and/or family while you're gone. I work remotely full time as a writer and freelance marketer, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I’m completely available any day for whatever you need and will be able to give your home and pet(s) the attention they deserve. I will follow whatever instructions you give to a T. As a creative person, my brain can be scattered, but having instructions in a text or list helps a ton. That way, you have utmost peace of mind that your home and pet(s) are receiving the best care!

With a deep attention to detail and experience as a cat owner myself, I’m skilled at recognizing subtle cues that may indicate their needs or moods. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. As a full-time student, I’ve mastered the art of balancing responsibilities, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize the well-being of animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s feeding, playing, or providing companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine, ensuring they receive attention and care when they need it. Caring for animals isn’t just a task for me—it’s a passion I make time for every day, even amidst my busy academic life. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, my priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for them. In my home, I ensure the space is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration. I maintain a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, playtime, and quiet time to keep pets happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect and follow their established routines to provide consistency for their pets. I take care to keep the space clean and secure, ensuring their pet feels at ease while maintaining the familiar surroundings they’re used to. Whether it’s walks, feeding, litter box maintenance, or administering medications, I provide attentive care tailored to their specific needs. In both settings, communication with the pet owner is key—I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to give peace of mind and ensure trust.
About: For the last few years, I’ve had experience pet sitting for clients with dogs and cats of varying ages from 1-10 years old. I love spending time with animals to make sure they stay as comfortable as possible while their owners are away, and am always willing to spend time with them whether that be playing, walking, or just chilling out at their house. I’ve dealt with dogs both small and large and am capable of taking care of all size animals. I’m currently a college student at ETSU and also a YoungLife leader. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I am booked from 10-3 and other days vary depending on my schedule. My schedule is somewhat flexible, so I can guarantee that adequate time will be made to ensure your pet(s) have all their needs met from bathroom breaks to staying overnight at your home. Over the summer, I’m in Knoxville, and I work shifts from 7-1 or 12-6. Even with that, I can make time to care for your pets. I can meet whatever specific needs your pet has, whether it is giving them a certain amount of crate/outside time, rewarding them for doing good, going off of their schedule to keep them in routine, etc.
About: I love spending time with animals of all kinds. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with puppies, senior pets, and can administer basic medications and follow any special care instructions. You can count on me to provide reliable care, plenty of updates, and lots of love and attention! Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine! I work until around 3:00 PM, so I’m available every afternoon and evening for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or overnight care. I’m also available all day on Mondays and Tuesdays, giving me plenty of flexibility to meet your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure pets are always supervised, have fresh water, and receive plenty of love and attention. I also keep pet owners updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your furry family member is in good hands while you’re away.
About: I have been around animals my entire life! There was never a time I didn’t have a let of some kind. I was always helping neighbors and family members with their animals. I have worked at dog training facilities where we also had doggy daycare. I’ve worked many years at vet offices as well. Therefore my experience with pets with medical needs gives me the knowledge of taking care of your fur baby who may need a little extra attention. I am home throughout the day as well as nights and evenings so your fur babies will get all the love and play time they need! I have a large unfenced yard where your babies can enjoy running while attached to a long leash. They will get to roam around in the home as long as they are potty trained and dog friendly. I have a room that is a dedicated dog room where crates are kept for the dogs to be safely while I am away. YOUR PET MUST BE CRATE TRAINED! Please bring a crate for each dog you are boarding with me unless prior arrangements have been made! I do have a baby so your pet must be good with children.

“Jeanie was awesome to work with! She took our dog, Penny, on short notice. She was very engaging with us and responded to all of our questions in a timely manner. She made us feel very comfortable leaving Penny with her for the week. She continually updated us with pictures and short commentary about Penny’s stay. We could tell through the updates that Penny was enjoying herself. Penny is usually very reserved around strangers but she took to Jeanie very quickly. We would not hesitate to bring Penny back!”
“Simply the best. We’ve taken our boys to Kristy several times now. They know when we’re getting close to her house and always so happy to walk right inside! She’s amazing! Thank you, Kristy!”
“Daniella was great! We were nervous to leave our young pup for the first time, but she was so reassuring. She kept us updated with several photos and videos daily while we were away! We were so grateful for that and really appreciated her taking care of her. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet.”
“Hannah has such a kind soul. My dog went over to her without pause. We got updated photos during her sleepover which definitely helps with the separation anxiety. I will always use Hannah as my go to dog person.”
“My dog loved Caillynn! She sent photos to keep us updated on how he did while we were gone and sent him home with a few treats. He was a happy pup! I definitely recommend Caillynn!”
“Definitely my go to pet sitter for Dolly, my 3 month old Australian Shepherd. Dolly absolutely loves it there, and Jennifer sends the best pictures and videos. Her and her husband are absolutely awesome, and their dog is great with Dolly who is as energetic as they come. I won't even think about using anyone else now!”
“Ellie LOVES Skylar!! We all do. So kind and caring, I am afraid my dog will want to be adopted by her. We LOVE the pictures throughout the week too!! Thank you so much for taking care of my dog, and loving her quirks and moods as she navigates new experiences.”
“Andrew was great and took good care of my boy Leroy. His dog Jeff is a sweetie and I would definitely book with Andrew again so Leroy has both a human and canine companion he likes while I’m away!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to leave my precious pup with. Angelica was amazing and Winnie seemed to really enjoy her time with her. She was available with only a 2 week notice and she was very responsive. Without asking, she sent me loads of updates. You could tell Winnie was well taken care of and she enjoyed playing with Angelica’s pups as well. I will definitely use Angelica for any future needs we have!!”
“Rachel is AWESOME! We’ve used her twice now and our dog got excited when we pulled up to her house this 2nd time! Tail was wagging and doggy couldn’t wait to get out of the car and run to her. That’s as close to a DOG’s review as you can get. She communicates well, is professional and sends photos and videos during the boarding to put our minds at ease. You can’t ask for more.”
“Laura is amazing! She is caring and kept us up to date with pictures and text messages. When our Allie wasn’t eating, she coaxed her by hand feeding her and made sure she was getting her meds. I 100% recommend Laura and will be using her again when needed.”
“She did a great job with Charli ! She was always sending pictures and videos and informing me of how Charli was doing . Charli loved her child and they played with each other a lot so much that charli was exhausted and slept the rest of the night once she got home . Will be rebooking with her !”
“Fantastic Guy! Really nice, excellent communication, and there were no worries with him watching Luna. It took a load off my shoulders knowing she was in such great hands! Will 100% rebook, and highly recommend!”
