“We always leave our dog Cairo with Viviana when we go away for any length of time and there is no one I'd trust him with more. She takes such incredible care of him. He gets to run and play all day and always looks like he is having the best time. He has a lot of energy and she handles him so well and is so patient with him. I never worry about him while we're gone because I know he is in great hands. If you're looking for someone you can trust explicitly with your sweet dog, Viviana is it! She is absolutely amazing!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Here's your final review with a few minor tweaks for clarity and flow: --- This is my first time using a boarding service through Rover, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! I recently boarded my dog with her, and she was incredibly friendly, ensuring my dog felt comfortable and loved throughout the stay. Her house had plenty of space for play, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy boarding service. Thank you for taking such great care of Harry!”
“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.”
“Victoria and Charles were wonderful with Buddy! They were so sweet and caring, sent lots of pictures and updates everyday. I could tell he was happy and comfortable with them. He was a very happy boy when I picked him up! We would definitely book with them again. ❤️🐾”
“Had such a great experience! Elizabeth is very knowledgeable and was so sweet. She treated our babies like her own and sent photo updates often. Would definitely recommend!”
“Absolutely great stay for my Labrador retriever Jake. Stephanie was very easy to work with and I can tell Jake had a good time and was very well taken care of. I will definitely be letting Jake stay there again anytime we’re out of town.”
“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.”
“Jessica was phenomenal. From our meet and greet to pick up, everything was great. She was caring and took the best care of our Chocolate lab. We will definitely be seeing 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!!”
“Cassandra was fabulous. We had just rescued a kitten but needed to go out of town a couple weeks later. Cassandra was so helpful and reassuring and made it possible to keep our plans and our new kitten! We received daily photos and little notes that helped keep our minds at ease while we were away. We will absolutely use Cassandra again when we need more pet help! Highly recommend!”
“They were amazing!!! Such a loving family with tons of experience. I’d trust them with my kid if I had one haha! Dexter sent me photos and gave updates 24/7 without me having to ask, my dog had an amazing time there. 100% would recommend!!”
“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!!”
“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!”
“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! 🖤”
“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.”

“Gidget has been great! We have used her multiple times. Our kitty is very shy and she has been very patient and made sure our kitty felt very comfortable. And now they are friends.”
“Lauren was amazing! Was very attentive to specific needs of my pet. Excellent communication and updates. Couldn’t be happier with the experience. The only negative is that my cat might like her more than me now :)”
About: I have loads of experience! From fostering dogs to being a licensed vet tech of 10 years!!! I decided I wanted a different direction and starting my own business and pet sit on the side. I'm loving every second of it! I work from home so taking care of your baby will fit right into my schedule. I can do whatever is needed and more! Just ask! I prefer to care for animals in their homes where they are comfortable, but if they are good with other dogs/peope/ and cats they can come to mine. I have 6bdogs ranging from puppy to senior and 5 cats. They all get along well with other dogs and cats but if one was to join our pack they would have to do the same.
“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”
“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❤️”
“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.”
“Veronica was a great sitter for our cats. Both cats are very timid of new people and our Elsie cat let Veronica pet her on the second visit! Obviously she is a genuine cat person and they appreciate her.”
“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.”

“Riley loves his time with Thomas. He is so kind and is taking great care of him on his visits! I love the midday photos and look forward to having his continued help. And he even brings in the garbage can from the road! A small thing but so thoughtful. Thomas is the best.”
“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 grown up with cats in the household since I was small. My mom is an absolute cat lover, which also translates over to me! I’ve grown up with both indoor and outdoor cats. Cats are spunky, independent, and so much more than people give them credit for. I love cats and have a deep appreciation for them. I also understand their personalities and demeanors. Even the most difficult of cats have come to love me and gain my trust. You just need to have patience and strong will! I’ll promise to take care of your babies with the love and care as I would my very own.
“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!”

“Our boy's stay with Tabatha was just what the doctor ordered. Brinkley needed a play date and some serious socialization. He had three friends to play with, a couple of small kids and a lot if acreage to do it in. We got a much needed day off free from worry or stress about our boy. Tabatha even offered to give him food from her private stores when we decided to stay out later than we had originally planned. We will definitely be using her again.”

“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 am a caring and attentive individual who absolutely loves my pets and treats them like family. Located near the Foothills of the Smoky Mountains. My home is the perfect home away from home for you pet while you enjoy your vacation. I occasionally care for my neighbors pets with drop in visits at their home when they are out of town. I am home all day with my fur babies. I would be able to care for your pet and give it all the attention and love it needs. I have a fence, but not completely closed. We are working on getting that done soon. I do have a small fence closed in around my patio so the dogs can freely hang outside with me. During potty breaks I will make sure to have your pet out with a leash at all times. I have 2 friendly dogs as well. If your pet needs to be crated I can do that also.
“Pretty Girl had a wonderful time with Reah and her dogs. There was a large yard with high fencing, so I felt very comfortable that Pretty Girl was secure. Reah sent me pictures throughout the day of Pretty Girl relaxing. I especially liked the one of her and Norman (weimaraner) chilling together on the porch sofa. I would highly recommend Reah to anyone looking for a great place for your dog to stay.”
“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.”
“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: I’ve had a pup my entire life, at one point my wife and I had 4 doggies! I have experience with dogs of all stages of life! We live an active lifestyle, but also love to cuddle at night! In the Summer I only work a few hours a day. My wife works from home a couple days a week as well! Your pup would only be alone a couple hours max. I have a large fenced back yard! We try to keep to your pups normal routine. They can either be crated or free roaming depending on your preference when I go run errands. I have a doggie door for my pup to go in and out throughout the day.

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!
“Absolutely amazing! They both were so welcoming with our dogs and I felt they were very happy and content right from getting there! Communication was great and the photos/videos really helped put me at ease. Will definitely book again!”
“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!!!”
“I highly recommend Kristi for your babies needs. Being new to the area and having a new puppy is exciting and scary. Trusting someone with your baby is hard. She was so comforting to me and gave me regular updates. This was the first time I left Chandler with anyone. She has 2 dogs herself and Frankie is the same breed as Chandler. Dachshunds needs special care and she even had ramps to accommodate their backs. I will definitely use Kristi again.❤️💙🩷”
“I feel blessed for having found Jane. My dog came back home so calm and chill, which shows she was loved and not scared. Jane also sent me lots of updates throughout the day. We will definitely go back! Thank you so much”

“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: 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.
About: I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s individual needs. I’ve lived with and cared for animals ranging from small pets to large dogs my entire life, including senior pets and those with special needs. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m attentive, patient, and happy to provide whatever extra care your pet may need. Whether that means accommodating mobility limitations, administering routine care, cleaning up accidents, or simply providing some extra love and attention, I want every pet to feel safe and comfortable while they are in my care. 🐾❤️ I’m a graduate student at the University of Tennessee, so my weekdays are generally busy with classes until noon. I’m typically available after that and have plenty of flexibility on weekends! My schedule can vary, but I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s needs. Feel free to reach out, even if you’re not sure my schedule will work, just ask! I do not currently have the means to care for pets in my own home, but I am able to meet your pets at home and provide care however necessary!
“I just want to say that Amy went above and beyond to take my girl on a lovely walk after the rain had fallen. Thank you for making our day you are definitely my top walker this far. I’ll see you soon”
About: Hello!! My name is Ashley and I have taken care of animals my entire life. I had a ranch for over 2 years and have been riding horses for 10+ years. I currently have my EMT certification and have taken care of very large animals. I love animals of all shapes and sizes!!! Please feel free to reach out and ask questions. :) I had trouble finding people who could let my dogs out to go potty on those 12 & 24 hour shifts. I would love to help out and promise to spoil your fur babies. Please feel free to reach out!!! All of my animals are completely spoiled. I currently have two German Sheps who insist on going to the dog park and getting pup cups daily.

About: Howdie! I’m so glad you’re here! I’d love to take your dog on a walk or check on your dog (or cat) in your home. Frankly I’m trying to get into better shape, so taking your dog on a walk is good exercise for me! Haha I’ve always grown up around animals, and currently have a cat and dog of my own, so I’d be perfect for your needs. Let me know if I can help! I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I am able to fit in walks or drop ins throughout my day. I am pretty open most days or can rearrange my schedule to meet needs I will be careful to respect your home/property when I am visiting to care for your pet. When walking dogs I make sure they are properly attached to a leash prior to leaving and prior to leaving your home I will make sure your pet is in good shape and the home is how I found it
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.
About: Rover has been such a great experience, getting to know different families and different breeds of dogs. It’s so much fun!!! I took some time off when we moved to Tennessee but I’m ready to meet some new fur friends. I have 2 of my own and love to see all the different personalities of each animal. I still keep in touch with some of my furry friends. I get so close to them (and their owners). You trust me to care for your fur family, so we become family. Live in Tennessee but will be in Lake Arrowhead visiting family for the holidays. Would love to take care of your fur babies for you while I’m there Honest, reliable, dependable empty nester who will take care of your fur babies as my own. I will honor and respect your home and love your pets as much as you do
About: I’ve always LOVED animals of any kind. (Used to want to be a vet but realized it was too hard to see animals in distress). We’ve had dogs and cats in our home since I was a little girl. I’ve had over 10 years of experience taking care of dogs, cats, and other small pets for friends, family, and neighbors! I have a sweet spot for animals and would do my upmost best to ensure your baby is taken care of to the best of my abilities. I will treat your pet with the same care I would my own. My personality is this: patient, calm, gentle, and detail oriented. I also believe heavily in communication and will always appreciate a pet owner who also likes communication. Communication is very important to me because I want to make sure I can do my job to the best of my abilities. I currently have my own 1 year old terrier and have done everything from potty training, crate training and obedience training. I want all of my customers to rest assured their baby will get the attention and care they deserve. My schedule is very flexible so I can have the time to take care of your pets! I work throughout the week including weekends and can take your pet out as frequently as they need. Just reach out and let me know what you’re looking for. I have a fenced in yard outside, suited for small to medium dogs. I also live in a neighborhood that is suitable for walking your pet if you would like. I also make sure that my home is free of any dangers or anything toxic to any pets. I raised both puppies and kittens and know how to properly ensure animals are taken care of appropriately.
About: Hi! I’m Susan. I’m a graduate student at UT hoping to make a little extra money on the side. I love love doggos, treating them like humans. I've had a dog the majority of my life, starting with a Visla, mixed breed bulldog, and a black labrador retriever in our house when I was a child. I have owned two mixed american staffordshire terriers and a golden retriever myself. I've cared for them as puppies, through life, surgeries, and health, and at the end of life. I am gentle and let dogs interact with me on their terms. I am open to caring for all types of dogs. I would love to take care of your pups. I am a graduate student at the University of Tennessee, so my schedule is very flexible. I also don't get a lot of vacation time, so I'm usually in Knoxville. I can care for pets throughout the day, doing my lab work intermittently. I treat my client's home and pets with the utmost respect. I am there to do the job for which you hired me and nothing else, and you can count on me for it.

“Angela did a great job on multiple visits with my 2 dogs, both large breed, one pup and one adult. She is clearly a skilled and confident walker and caretaker. She was responsive and thorough with communications and completely reliable. I hope to use her again in the future.”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. From volunteering at shelters to working as a veterinary assistant, I have gained experience with working with various kinds of pets (i.e. dogs, cats, birds, small mammals and reptiles). Aside from my work experiences, I have also cared for pets of my friends and family. My dedication and love for animals has allowed multiple people to trust me with caring for their pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand that they are our family members and I would be honored if you entrusted me with their care. I am currently a student at UTK, however my schedule is very flexible. Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and the weekend are days when I am most available When I come to your home to either walk or check on your pets, I make sure that your pet is well engaged by offering enrichment and socializing with them.
About: Hi, I recently moved to Knoxville and am looking for new clients! I love hanging out with dogs and would be happy to give them love while you are away. I am detail-oriented and will follow your directions to a tee. I also love snapping cute pics of your pet to keep you updated! I am a big animal lover! I have helped care for family members and neighbors pets my whole life. I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky. During undergrad, I fostered dogs and volunteered through the Lexington Humane Society. This work was so fulfilling and allowed me to provide shelter dogs with socialization and get them adopted! I would love to hang out with your furry friend(s) while you are away! I recently moved to Knoxville to start my Masters program at the University of Tennessee in August. I have classes at night Monday-Thursday and will be working 4 hours a day Monday-Friday, so I have flexibility to care for your pet(s)! My weekly schedule is as follows (with some variations as required.) Monday: work 9am-1pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Tuesday: work 1pm-5pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Wednesday: work 9am-1pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Thursday: work 1pm-5pm, class 5:45-8:30pm Friday: work 9am-1pm Saturday/Sunday: no set time commitments Through my time with the Lexington Humane Society, I completed trainings that covered dog behavior, body language, socialization, some basic training, and basic health info. This knowledge helps me provide the best support while I am working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and behaviors.
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 with 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 daily walks so adding a friend would be nothing but extra fun! I am happy to cater to any needs or schedule & help however I can! I am comfortable around all pets & am super excited!

“We always leave our dog Cairo with Viviana when we go away for any length of time and there is no one I'd trust him with more. She takes such incredible care of him. He gets to run and play all day and always looks like he is having the best time. He has a lot of energy and she handles him so well and is so patient with him. I never worry about him while we're gone because I know he is in great hands. If you're looking for someone you can trust explicitly with your sweet dog, Viviana is it! She is absolutely amazing!”
“Here's your final review with a few minor tweaks for clarity and flow: --- This is my first time using a boarding service through Rover, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! I recently boarded my dog with her, and she was incredibly friendly, ensuring my dog felt comfortable and loved throughout the stay. Her house had plenty of space for play, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy boarding service. Thank you for taking such great care of Harry!”
“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.”
“Had such a great experience! Elizabeth is very knowledgeable and was so sweet. She treated our babies like her own and sent photo updates often. Would definitely recommend!”
“Absolutely great stay for my Labrador retriever Jake. Stephanie was very easy to work with and I can tell Jake had a good time and was very well taken care of. I will definitely be letting Jake stay there again anytime we’re out of town.”
“Jessica was phenomenal. From our meet and greet to pick up, everything was great. She was caring and took the best care of our Chocolate lab. We will definitely be seeing 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!!”
“They were amazing!!! Such a loving family with tons of experience. I’d trust them with my kid if I had one haha! Dexter sent me photos and gave updates 24/7 without me having to ask, my dog had an amazing time there. 100% would recommend!!”
“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!”
“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! 🖤”
“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.”
“Ashley was flexible with drop off/pickup time frames and communicated quickly. I’m always anxious leaving my pup behind but felt comfortable and confident leaving her in Ashley’s care. I would have preferred more pics during the stay but I understand sometimes it could be forgotten.”
“Jessica is great and you can tell she and her family really love dogs. My puppy doesn’t sleep well at other houses but she made it work for him at her house. So glad I could leave on vacation but still feel good about my puppy knowing he was having a good time and well taken care of.”
“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!”
“Lanelle was so awesome with our sweet Niko!!! She sent great pics to us and kept me on board with his stay.. she even went above and beyond and setting him up in my home for our parents thank you so much Lanelle!! Niko was very happy and we felt very relaxed and had fun in our vacation knowing he was ok.. we will definitely use your services again! Your family is super sweet and loves dogs!”
About: I am a caring and attentive individual who absolutely loves my pets and treats them like family. Located near the Foothills of the Smoky Mountains. My home is the perfect home away from home for you pet while you enjoy your vacation. I occasionally care for my neighbors pets with drop in visits at their home when they are out of town. I am home all day with my fur babies. I would be able to care for your pet and give it all the attention and love it needs. I have a fence, but not completely closed. We are working on getting that done soon. I do have a small fence closed in around my patio so the dogs can freely hang outside with me. During potty breaks I will make sure to have your pet out with a leash at all times. I have 2 friendly dogs as well. If your pet needs to be crated I can do that also.
“Paul & Julie were amazing, such great people! They gave many photo and text updates throughout my pups’ stay and i could tell how well they took care of them just based off how relaxed they were when i came to pick them up! They looked right at home. I can’t recommend Paul and Julie enough!”
