“Viviana is fantastic! She really went above and beyond to provide special attention and care to my nervous pup. By the time I went to pick my pup up, it seemed like she didn’t even want to leave! They sent so many updates, photos, videos, etc that I barely even had to miss my pup while she was staying with them too!”
“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!”
“Elizabeth was the most lovely dog-sitter for our 2 English Springer Spaniels!! It felt like we were leaving them with a family friend. She let us do a meet and greet to answer any questions beforehand, and she was attentive to their unique needs all throughout their stay. Drop off/pick up was easy, and bonus - her home is v close to the airport. Our dogs are our babies, so it feels so good to know they were safe and happy at Camp Elizabeth! They especially loved their walks with her along the greenway. Elizabeth is a true dog lover - her thoughtful care of our babies gave us peace of mind. Her partner also enjoyed lots of love from our silly noodle pups. Excited to book another stay with her for our next trip!”
“I’ve left Harry with her several times, and each time he gets so excited to see her. It’s clear how happy he is at her place. Today, when I went to pick him up, he didn’t even seem like he wanted to leave—he must’ve had such a great time! Thank you so much for always taking such good care of him!”
“Felt confident that Scout was being loved and cared for. Penny sent pics and videos and kept us updated on how Scout was doing. Would absolutely recommend Penny and use her again.”
“Kelly and Chris are without a doubt - the BEST dog sitters I have ever had. My dachshund -Nina- stayed at their house last weekend. When we arrived. Nina was very excited and wanted to play. Kelly and Chris were right there making us all feel more than comfortable. They are real dog lovers and did a lot to make Nina happy. Since Nina is used to sleeping in bed, she slept with them and their 2 dogs in bed. They have a huge yard, and a nice dog-friendly house. They are so nice and so conscientious to do all they could to make Nina's stay enjoyable. When we picked up Nina, she was so happy that she seemed that she would miss them.. Kelly also sent me pictures and texts to let me know how everything was going.”
“Mary and her husband are absolutely wonderful with my dog, Millie! They’re both so kind, patient, and truly treat her like their own. It’s such a comfort knowing Millie is getting lots of love and attention while I’m away. She’s always excited to see them, which says it all! I’m so grateful to have found such caring sitters.”
“Cassandra fit me in last minute in a pinch and it worked out perfectly! They sent pictures daily and I know my pup was in good hands. I would re-book here next time, no doubt!!”
“Our pet was treated like one of the family! I was sent photos daily and had absolutely no concerns about how my dog was doing while we were gone. I would definitely use them 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!”
“Somer is awesome! I was in a pinch, and she was able to watch my dog for 4 days with only a day notice! She gave me updates and sent photos! Definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
“Ashley was wonderful! She watched our 12 week old puppy and sent us updates throughout the week. Ashley is very caring and has great communication. We will definitely be booking with Ashley in the future! Highly recommend!”
“We had to leave our 3 year old Aussie for a family vacation and Tabitha was more than accommodating to our changing schedule. She shared many videos and was quick to reply back to any of our messages. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“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.”
“Had a great experience with Erin with my pup. She kept me informed of how my pup was doing throughout his stay with pictures and texts. He was super well cared for and have no problems using Erin again in the future.”
“What a pleasant experience! This was our first time boarding our cat Clovis. Devin and Delisa were the best! Clovis got the best care and I got the best feedback while away! I super recommend them and will be booking with them next time for sure! Thank you so much!”
“Rachel did a great job taking care of our dog Mazie! She sent photos and videos which brought us comfort knowing she was in good hands while we were away. She was professional and accommodating.”

“Gidget was great about being on time every visit. Reggie became very friendly very quickly with her after I went on a work trip. She openly communicated with me about questions regarding his care and even brought in some packages for me.”
“I wanted to try a new provider and was greatly satisfied with how easy it is with Rover. I like that I can select a time for the drop in visits. Cassandra was on time and did exactly what we agreed on. I liked receiving photos & updates. I definitely would recommend Cassandra! I’ll be booking with her for future trips.”
“Awesome pet sitter! This is the second time I have had Ashley watch my cats and she took excellent care of them! I am so thankful to have a reliable pet sitter to watch over my babies❤️”
About: Please do not use Rovers time frame feature to put in drop off / pick up info. I do not use it. I will not honor times put into this feature on Rover if you use it. See more info below. I have been a dog owner all my life. I have worked in an adoption center, participated in foster / adopt transportations, and have fostered. I have never been able to leave my furry friend with a boarding service for fear that something would happen or he would get lonely. So I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust to take care of him/her until you return. Your pet will be part of our family. I've never been restrictive to my pets so yours will be allowed as much freedom as you would like him/her to have. **Please note: I do NOT go by the time frames that Rover gives you. I have no way of showing my availability for each day, so when you put those in they may not match my actual availability. I will NOT honor those times since I have no control over them. Please make sure we finalize drop off times BEFORE booking a stay with me. I'm happy to work with you while I can for drop-offs and pickups, but there might be times when my schedule is not going to allow me to be as flexible. Right now I'm not currently accepting pick ups or drop offs on Thursday evenings after 5 pm or Sunday mornings. My husband and I are both active with our church and those times are dedicated to that. I'm also closed for drop offs and pick ups on Saturdays all day. While I have guests in my care during that time, it's my one day "off" each week to not be tethered to my house. I do have two children, a twelve-year-old and a nine-year-old. Both are used to being around dogs, but for the safety of all involved, I require a meet and greet to make sure everyone gets along. Please see additional information about meet and greets below. When we leave the house, I will never leave your pets mixed with other pets. I'm happy to crate your dog if that's what they are used to or they will be given their own room while we're away. I will never leave your dog mixed unsupervised with my dog or other dogs I'm watching. Everyone's safety is my first priority. I can provide my cell so you can get in contact with me at any time. I also provide pictures/videos via text. I'm working on doing better to show them on Rover. One of the things I will tell you from the get go is my house gets a little crazy sometimes. I do my best to provide updates once a day while you're away. I also tell my clients to message me if they haven't heard from me and would like an update. I do my best to be responsive in a timely manner. However, I also expect my clients to understand that I do have a life outside of pet sitting and sometimes that life gets in the way of my being able to respond right away. Please show a little grace when asking for updates on your pet. We love them like our own so they just join in our family life which doesn't always include having my phone glued to my side. I'm a homemaker and homeschool mom. I am around a lot of the time and there is plenty of outside time for my guests. The reason my schedule may look blocked off is because of the time required for my guests, my kiddos, and my job. My husband also works from home full time now. He does assist with the pups sometimes but I do not rely on him for meet and greets, drop offs or pick ups. Crates are not required, but if your dog is used to being crated I can provide for that. I will also crate a dog if they are found to be destructive or are untrustworthy when we are out of the house. I also will not keep dogs that are food aggressive. I separate everyone to feed them because I understand the nature of most dogs is to be protective of food. However, if a dog shows aggression towards another dog when food is present or while we're in the kitchen around people food, that is not something I am comfortable with for safety reasons. We homeschool and I work from home so we're home a lot of the time. With that said, we do have lives and go places. I try to be as accommodating as possible, but please keep this in mind. Your pup will be integrated into our household with my own. We're in and out a lot so potty breaks and playtime naturally happen throughout the day. I provide overnight services out of my home as well as doggy day care. We have a fully fenced yard with an automatic locking gate to keep people from opening it when they come for pickup. When you come to my house, you'll park in my driveway and then enter through a double set of people gates to your left.
“Taylor was a delight to talk to, and showed a real love of animals. She gets my Bobby- he is the shy guy that loves to eat, but not one to hang out. She took helpful pictures and made my time away, peaceful.”
“Our new kitties loved having Veronica visit while we were away. Veronica took great care of them, provided us daily picture and visit updates. We will definitely look for Veronica the next time we have to leave for an extra long weekend!”
“Crystal was wonderful! She’s incredibly kind, she’s super easy to get ahold of, and we always looked forward to her updates about our kitty! Plus, our kitty seemed to love her! We will definitely be looking to book with her again for our next trip!”
“Angela took amazing care of our cats while we were away! She was timely, very communicative, and overall went above and beyond for us. I’m looking forward to using her again in the future!”
About: I've taken care of all kinds of pets from hamsters to great danes! neighbors, family, & friends have relied on me to take care of their pets by walking, feeding, cuddling, playing, or bathing them! I've always had a pet in my life to love and take care of I currently work as a nanny so my schedule is pretty flexible! I also go on walks daily so adding a little friend would be nothing but extra fun! I am happy to cater to any needs or schedule and help however I can! I am comfortable around all pets and am super excited!
“Sarah is truly a lover of animals who is LOVED by animals. She is also a gifted photographer. I saw my cats flourish in her care through her photos that she sent me as often as I wanted!!! My two shy boys really came out of their shell with Sarah. And the two affectionate cats sought for her attention every chance they could! It was a gift to receive photos of my pets during her stay & their experiences together. Sarah is a wonderful communicator too. She is just a text away. If you are worried about your pets getting quality care, Sarah is the one for you!! She ensures they get all the love, food, meds they need.”
“Brandi was amazing!!! She was very professional and she did a great job communicating. Brandi was extremely kind and flexible with my schedule. I really appreciated how caring she was with Scout. I would highly recommend her to anyone and would be delighted to have her be Scouts sitter again!”
About: I have had a dog as a family pet for my entire life, and I've personally taken care of family friends' pets since I was a preteen as well, so you could say I know my way around the species pretty well and I know that great pet owners mean they are treated as a member of the family. I will be communicative, respectful, and flexible with the owners and a caring new friend for the furry family member who's been left behind. I'm a teacher on holiday, so my first priority this summer is your pet, and I will absolutely ensure he or she is very well taken care of. Thank you in advance for your consideration, I am looking forward to taking care of your pet!

“Before Patrick's multiple stays with Mrs. Tabatha, I was new and little apprehensive to the whole doggie daycare thing. Tabatha immediately made me feel at ease. I trust her completely with the care of my pup. She is knowledgeable and treats the pets as her own. I know Patrick is looking forward to more days spent chasing squirrels in her yard!”
“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.
“We love when Brady comes to stay at Michael’s he seems so at home and happy. We can leave without worries knowing he’s loved and cared for as much as he is when he’s with us. Thanks Michael.”
About: I'm available Mon-Sun!!! I have over 40 years experience, walking, training, taking care of dogs, giving medication. I've been rescuing for years and was a Petco groomer for a little while. I'm responsible and very loving to all dogs to all animals. Being responsible to you I will always be in contact with you through the phone and send pictures of the walks, and or the stay with me. I've taken care of my own and took care of Teddy and Sammy until they passed naturally with cancer. I have Nero and Feisty now. I've also taken care of friends and my families dogs for over 40 years. I walk my dogs every day even when it was cold out for many years. I understand how important it is for a dog to be walked, it's best for their health. I've rescued all my dogs, and have been devoted to the end. My home is clean and spacious, I leash my dog every time he goes out, as I would yours. I have a natural affection and love for all dogs. I take this position seriously, your dog is family and safe with me. I'm not working full time now, so I have the time to devote to you pup or cat. Please give me a days notice. Since we are in heavy tick and flea season please make sure your pup doesn't have any and is treated in case. Thank you I have a backyard with a tether, I go for walks in my neighborhood with mine every day. I'm right by a park and take pups there too.
“Great, super easy to work with sitter! She accepted my booking even though drop off was only 12 hours away which was so helpful after another sitter last minute canceled. She also let me change the pickup time last minute which was so appreciated! She sent pics and played with Mo and was just a super easy and great experience! 10/10 recommend for sure! Very nice home and nice neighborhood and just overall great experience!”
“Meredith is the absolute best! She's so kind and gentle and patient!l - Springsteen enjoyed his time with her and John so much. He had the best time exploring the woods and playing in her very large and fun backyard. Perfect place to spend time with the best dog loving house! Thank you, Meredith, for all the love and attention you provide. Can't wait for Springsteen to come back for more time at Doyle's Den.”
“We booked last minute & she still took our little Bentley! Was extremely understanding because we were running late. Sent pictures and videos all day letting us know how he was doing. She is amazing & the sweetest! We will definitely be bringing Bentley back to play with the other dogs❤️❤️ He had a great time.”
“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’ve been walking and caring for dogs for the past 7 years and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I also cared for my own 15-year-old dog, including helping with diapers, medication, and other senior care needs, so I’m comfortable providing extra patience and attention when needed. I’m reliable, responsible, and will always treat your dog with the same love and care as my own. I’m currently taking two online classes, which don’t take up much of my day, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. Because of this, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of one-on-one care throughout the day to make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I live right on campus in a safe, pet-friendly area, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and fresh air. I’m able to take them on walks around the friendly neighborhood and down to the courtyard as often as needed for potty breaks, playtime, and enrichment. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine, prioritize their safety, and treat them like they’re my own!
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 frequent potty breaks, walks, 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, 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.
About: I grew up with all different kinds of animals and have petsitting experience taking care of cats and dogs. I love spending time with animals and the joy they bring! At this time, my schedule is mostly open and I am accepting new clients. I am available during the week and weekends as well. Let me know if you have any questions! I have 2 dogs myself, a pit mix and beagle. They are truly the beat companions. I can do drop-in visits, doggy daycare (can be customized to your dog’s needs / wants), overnight boarding in our home, and dog walks!
“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.”

“Tracy was AMAZING🌸🤍😊 great communication throughout the day and even a photo shoot of Ribby. Tracy was soo kind and even offered to feed Ribby chicken and rice for Ribby’s sensitive stomach. Tracy went ABOVE AND BEYOND our expectations! I wish we lived closer to her, so we could do more date days! Highly recommend!! Thank you Tracy! Love Ribby”
“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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Rachel was so helpful taking care of my sweet puppy even when he wasn’t feeling his greatest the day she had him! She gave regular updates and even offered son advice to help remedy his upset tummy! She is fantastic!”
“Excellent communication about our dog's daycare stays. Having Lisa's dog there is a big plus for our dog's socialization. Drop offs and pick ups were smooth. Our dog must have enjoyed being there as on the second and remaining day drop offs, he got out of the car and ran to Lisa's front door! We will certainly have her watch our 105 lb. Black Lab in the near future, if only for him to have a change of pace!”

About: In addition to having dogs of various breeds for the majority of my life, I have been dogsitting for the last two years. I am also experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds as a result of working in dog daycare facilities and in grooming salons across the last three years. I also volunteer with the animal shelter in the area, so I know how important it is to meet dogs where they're at. I currently spend about one day a week volunteering with the local animal shelter, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I look forward to spending my time with your pets! I currently have two cats of my own, so I am unfortunately unable to bring any more pets into my own home. However, I am happy to enforce your pet's existing routine within the comfort of their home.

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: I have raised two Australian Shepards myself. I have taught both of them all the basic commands myself. I am very patient and understanding. I just love being around animals as much as possible. I will give your pet plenty of attention including playing and exercising your pet. I am currently taking classes online so I am open nearly every day to take care of your pet. I am very flexible and have my own reliable vehicle to get to where I need to. I may currently be a little higher than other, but I will actually stay night and day to take care of your dogs. Not just to show up let them out and feed them In my home my pets are completely spoiled. My Aussie is always by my side including sleeping at the foot of my bed. My dog gets daily exercise. I am perfectly fine with treating your pet like my own or setting boundaries if you do not allow your pet on furniture. I also have experience with caring for horses. So I have no problem dealing with large dogs
About: Specifically I understand the needs of French Bulldogs in certain weather conditions. I also understand other short legged friends that need accommodations and have restrictions such as jumping off furniture or when playing not throwing things too high. I run my own business but have a flexible schedule. I am also a grad student who is about to graduate and will open more time in my schedule. Currently I am available various times during the week with a lot of availability on the weekends. My pup has accommodations in every room of the house. I make sure he has the right food bowls for his breed (elevated and tilted). He also has a variety of toys and doggy door to go sunbathe or potty anytime of the day. I understand cleaning up after our furry friends and making sure they have exactly what they need.

“Viviana is fantastic! She really went above and beyond to provide special attention and care to my nervous pup. By the time I went to pick my pup up, it seemed like she didn’t even want to leave! They sent so many updates, photos, videos, etc that I barely even had to miss my pup while she was staying with them too!”
“Elizabeth was the most lovely dog-sitter for our 2 English Springer Spaniels!! It felt like we were leaving them with a family friend. She let us do a meet and greet to answer any questions beforehand, and she was attentive to their unique needs all throughout their stay. Drop off/pick up was easy, and bonus - her home is v close to the airport. Our dogs are our babies, so it feels so good to know they were safe and happy at Camp Elizabeth! They especially loved their walks with her along the greenway. Elizabeth is a true dog lover - her thoughtful care of our babies gave us peace of mind. Her partner also enjoyed lots of love from our silly noodle pups. Excited to book another stay with her for our next trip!”
“I’ve left Harry with her several times, and each time he gets so excited to see her. It’s clear how happy he is at her place. Today, when I went to pick him up, he didn’t even seem like he wanted to leave—he must’ve had such a great time! Thank you so much for always taking such good care of him!”
“Somer is awesome! I was in a pinch, and she was able to watch my dog for 4 days with only a day notice! She gave me updates and sent photos! Definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”
“We had to leave our 3 year old Aussie for a family vacation and Tabitha was more than accommodating to our changing schedule. She shared many videos and was quick to reply back to any of our messages. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“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.”
“Had a great experience with Erin with my pup. She kept me informed of how my pup was doing throughout his stay with pictures and texts. He was super well cared for and have no problems using Erin again in the future.”
“Rachel did a great job taking care of our dog Mazie! She sent photos and videos which brought us comfort knowing she was in good hands while we were away. She was professional and accommodating.”
“Jessica continues to ‘knock it out of the park’!! Our schedule became very dynamic the day prior to our drop off and Jessica was able to adjust her schedule to accommodate our boy coming early. Sounds like Sully even managed to sit in on a math class and maybe geography as well. Sully always come home a more rounded member of the pack for sure. Thank you so much Jessica!”
“Riley enjoyed her stay with Joe! (As I expected she would.) He was very attentive to her needs and needs. They liked to take walks and watch the same flicks on tv, while chilling on the couch with his hand scratching her head just how she likes it. I picked him because he is retired and could give her the 1:1 attention that she craves. He kept me updated and I felt very comfortable with leaving my little miss in his capable hands. She will be back for more stays in the future. Joe, Riley thanks you too!”
“Lanelle was awesome she kept me constantly updated with my dog in terms of playfulness, walks, temperament and etc. I would definitely come back in the future, and I highly recommend!!!”
“We brought our girls on a Tennessee road trip from Texas, and April watched them while we spent a few days in the Pigeon Forge area. She has an amazing setup for dog-sitting. Your pups will be safe and loved while you are away.”
“Paul and his family were amazing with my dog. They made sure to keep me updated on how he was doing and went above and beyond to accommodate me. I would let them watch Onyx again in a heartbeat.”
“Kaylee is an answer to my prayers for my collie, Lassie. In every way! Lassie stayed with Kaylee for a week, never having been away from me before. Kaylee devoted full attention to Lassie's every need, and took excellent care of her! The multiple pictures she sent every day were such a pleasure to receive and a great comfort to me! I couldn't have found anyone better than Kaylee. Her care of Lassie was perfect. I never have to search again! Thank you, Kaylee!”
“Anyone with a 2-year old English Lab knows they can be a lot of energy to take watch. But Emma and Alex Did so with ease. They took our boy in and cared for him like their own, even when it meant getting up with our spoiled little guy several times his first night away from home. The pictures, videos and updates were very appreciated, and we can’t say enough good things about the care Sully received while we were away. Thank you Both!!”
