“Elizabeth is absolutely AMAZING!!! We had a last minute change of plans and needed to board our pups over thanksgiving and she was quick to respond and accept the reservation. She not only came out to greet us, she helped me get both dogs and their things out of the car. Throughout the week she sent us constant updates of their shenanigans with both cute and funny pictures of them. I asked for a specific photo of one dog for instagram and she did a whole little photo shoot! Pretty much every day she took them to the greenway down the road for 1-2 mile walks and even helped work on their leash manners. If you need your dog boarded with someone you know you can trust, book with Elizabeth. We will be using her every time we go back to the mountains!!!”

“Look no further than this! The place is beautiful. The humans love and get your canine. Not only are they professional with meet and greet, observation updates and photos, they truly engage with their fur guests. Highly recommend for extended periods. We were most at ease.”

“Words can not fully express our gratitude for this amazing family!!! They took care of our spoiled Boxer while we were in town. They loved on her and treated her as one of their own. Cody & Rachel made sure to send us updates and communicated well. I absolutely wouldn't hesistate to use them again on a future trip. I not only feel like we found a wonderful pet sitter, but also a friend! They are very kind and caring. Highly recommend without reservation!!! Thank-you so much, you all are AWESOME!!!”

“Joan took amazing care of our dog! She sent updates and pictures regularly. Especially with the July 4th holiday (fireworks) she let us know how he was feeling, which gave us peace of mind :)”

“Harvey loved his stay, a huge fenced in backyard, multiple walks per day, and Nugget was a great playmate. We received multiple photo updates each day. They were very accommodating with taking Harvey last minute and with pickups times. Highly recommended!”

“We have an 18-week old lab puppy named Sully who just returned from his 4-night sleepover with Jessica and her family. Being new puppy parents we are very protective of our little guy, and did quite a bit of research on Rover for a care giver, which is what led us to Jessica. Jessica let us have a meet and greet with her and her boxer Tucker before Sully’s stay which really gave confidence to our decision. During Sully’s stay we got tons of pictures and videos of our little man playing in the yard with Tucker and the kids. Jessica and her family made Sully a part of their ‘pack’ during his stay. He had such a great time, and was shown so much love and attention that we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home with us. We are so happy Sully found these new friends, and have already booked his stay for our next trip. It is so comforting knowing our Little Man is cared for with as much love and attention as we give him. Thank you Jessica and family!”

“April was able to watch my pup on short notice after my planned sitter had to cancel at the last minute - Bear came back from the weekend happy, healthy, and very tired. April checked in once or twice a day and provided pictures, would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”

“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.”


“Ann was a phenomenal pet sitter! Looked her up last minute and she was extremely accommodating and professional! She even provided help learning the system due to being new to Rover! She took care of our sweet Sadie and kept us informed and updated along the way! She gets 5 ⭐️ from us! Thanks again!”

About: Hi, I’m Julie and I am a Fear Free certified caregiver! I love being outside, so I'll be happy to take your best friend wherever they want to go on walks! I'm pretty flexible, so if your dog has any special needs, or if there's anywhere in particular you'd like your dog to visit, just let me know. Each confirmed booking comes with free photos of your fur baby while they are on their adventure!! I have three dogs of my own: Diesel, Callie and Benny. I have owned/been around animals my whole life, and have an extreme passion for animal care. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions! Thank you for trusting me with your fur-baby… I promise they are in good hands :) Currently available 24/7: Monday - Friday. 8:30am-6pm. Open to weekends! Holidays as well. Flexible schedule as of now: reach out! Open to all schedules & needs! I have a partially fenced in yard, as well as two dogs to keep your fur baby company! I also have two XL crates if needs for your baby!

About: What sets me apart is my genuine passion for all types of pets combined with a highly personalized and attentive approach to care. I treat every pet as if they were my own — learning their unique personality, preferences, and routine so they feel comfortable and happy right away. Above all, I’m deeply committed to building trust with both the owner and the pet. Previous clients often mention how relaxed and joyful their pets are when they return home — that kind of feedback means everything to me. Pet care is something I look forward to and easily weave into my daily life. I’m usually up early and start the day with some morning outside time and porch lounging. Being home during the day allows for me to provide regular potty breaks, play sessions, and companionship. Evenings are relaxed with dinner, ample outside time, and plenty of snuggle or training time. Combined with my own pets and also sitting for friends and family for years now, I have gained experience in many pet types and also experience caring for all stages of life-energetic pups to older dogs with special needs. This has taught me how to stay flexible and attentive to each pet’s individual routine, needs, and personality. I genuinely enjoy the responsibility and rhythm of pet care and would communicate regularly with you to make sure your see that your pet feels right at home. My goal is to keep you pet happy and comfortable while maintaining their normal routine while you are away- no matter the type of pet or they’re stage in life. I create a calm, safe, and loving environment for pets in my home. I start by learning their normal routine from the owner and do my best to keep it consistent. This means pity breaks matching your normal, fresh water always available, and meals served on their regular schedule with any needed medications. During the day I make sure they get plenty of playtime — whether that’s friend fun in my backyard with my two pups, play with their favorite toys, or gentle training sessions. I also give lots of affection and quiet companionship so they don’t feel lonely. At night, I provide a comfortable sleeping area (crate if preferred) or free range indoors to pick their own comfy place and I always do a final potty break before bed. My home is fully pet-proofed, clean, and free of hazards. I’ve cared for several friends’ and family dogs overnight and for extended stays, including high-energy young dogs to calmer senior pups and even stage in between. I send regular updates and photos if desired so owners can relax knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Highly recommend! Kristy was absolutely incredible with our girl Star! This was our first time leaving her with someone other than family, so we were a bit nervous. Kristy sent us multiple updates and pictures. She was very accommodating to our shy girl. Star was skiddish at first, but by the end of the stay she bloomed into her playful, loving self! We are so thankful for Kristy and will definitely book with her again in the future!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Cody and Rachel are so nice and it is clear they love animals. They took great care of our cat while we were away and provided updates to let us know he was happy and healthy. We highly recommend Cody & Rachel and will definitely use them again!”

About: I’ve cared for cats for family, friends, and neighbors and am comfortable with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind.

“Sierra was great. Despite it being Christmas she was there for my babies. She even made friends (sort of) with my uber shy Felix. Would DEFINATELY book again. It's great to have someone close to me in the rather small town of Townsend!”


“Brittany is WONDERFUL! She looked after our Siberian kitty for 3 days while we were away for Thanksgiving and did a phenomenal job. She provided photo updates and made sure our girl was fed and felt loved while we were away. Will absolutely be using her services again!”

“Kim and her daughter took excellent care of our sweet cat named Alice. They visited her daily, rain or shine. Alice is very social and loves attention. They gave her plenty of petting, freshen her bowls of water, refilled dry food, gave wet food, and treats. They also scooped her litter box daily. Alice was happy to have their attention and she was very well cared for during our 4 night absence. I highly recommend Kim as a pet sitter.”


“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.”

“My pet has a terminal cancer and is an original smelly cat. Storm took good care of her and my two other cats. The house was in order on my return and my sick cat got dosed on schedule. I am thrilled with her service.”
“She was so great to our 3mo pup who had to come on vacation because she’s still too young for boarding. She was easy to communicate with, came to our cabin, and was very kind to our babe.”

“Zach was responsive, helpful, and laid back. It was great to be able to drop our cat off for a few hours so we could enjoy the Titanic museum in Pigeon Forge and not have to worry.”

“We are in from out of state and Danita watched our Border Collie while we did some “not dog friendly” activities in the area. Danita was great with our dog - super friendly, walked him, and sent updates and photos. Would not hesitate to book again when in the area! Thank you!”

“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!”

“Our Bree seemed to be very happy with Zach and family. He took her out a few times and she had playtime, which is important for her with all of her energy. Thank you so much, Zach.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Tabatha -- she was willing to watch our dog for the day on super short notice and was very accommodating for us. She has a fantastic yard that our dog loved playing in. Our 2 y/o Aussie came back to us tired out, which is not an easy feat -- he had such a great time. Highly recommended!”

“Tracy was a blesssing! We have a very sweet spoiled baby, and she put all of our fears to rest about leaving her. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Tracy!”

“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.❤️💙🩷”

“Shyann was so kind and patient with me as the owner and absolutely doted on Charlie. She sent me multiple updates and photos through the day so I knew Charlie was having as much fun away from me as possible. I felt so safe leaving Charlie with her. I highly recommend her!”

“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”

About: Pet care in our home is truly a calling for me. I have over 35 years of experience caring for animals, and I humbly believe God has given me a special gift for working with them. I provide hands-on, attentive care every day, including walking, feeding, basic training reinforcement, and—most importantly—genuine affection and companionship. I offer a calm, structured, and nurturing environment where pets are treated like family, not just clients. I am comfortable working with a wide variety of pets and take the time to understand each animal’s unique needs and personality. Your pet will receive patient, individualized care, plenty of interaction, and a safe, loving place to feel at home while you’re away. Pet care is woven into my daily routine. Between homeschooling our daughter and managing our home and all the projects of our Farm, caring for animals through feeding, walks, training, playtime, and supervision is a consistent, intentional part of every day! I care for pets in our home as if they are part of our family. They receive a safe, calm environment with structured routines that include feeding, walks, playtime, rest, and one-on-one attention. I take time to understand each pet's personality, comfort level, and needs, whether that means active engagement, gentle training, or quiet companionship. Pets are closely supervised, shown patience and kindness, and given plenty of affection so they feel secure, respected, and at home while in my care.
“We’re from out of town and were scrambling to find a sitter for our girl for a few hours. I submitted a request and Alexis responded quickly. Our puppy was happy to see us at pickup, but seemed a bit worn out from playing. We know she had fun and was taken care of. Would definitely recommend!”

“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!”

“Jenny was great! She accommodated our request for a last minute booking and our dog was happy to spend time at her place. She sent us videos to keep our minds at ease which was very appreciated by the whole family.”

“Kristy was wonderful with our girl! She sent pictures throughout the day letting us know how she was doing and what she was up to. We had total peace of mind and know that our dog had a great day with great care.”

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!

There is nothing around my home that isn't safe for them they are part of the family when they are here! I work from home, so I am always here with them! No different from any other day except four extra paws and a new friend 😍 I have a fenced yard. The front is separated from the back so they can go out together or separately. Besides that they run free in my home, possibly crated at night time so we don't have any uh ohs!

“Danita was amazing, she help me out at the last moment when my scheduled dog walker did not show up. I would recommend her to take care of your fur baby. She even offered to dog sit so my vacation was not stressful due to the other dog walker being a no show.”

About: I have taken care of many fur babies since I was 6 years old. Most of the family animals have had health issues that has taught me how to administer medication, give baths, clip nails, and more. Cat and dog friendly! I am available everyday of the week except Sunday 11am-11pm! I can also stay in home over nights upon request. Sundays reserved for sittings only. 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 worked as a Kennel Technician for six years and as a Veterinary Assistant for three. I have experience with both small and large animals. I currently have 5 dogs, 2 cats, 13 rabbits, 8 horses, 10 goaties, and 2 chickens. I have raised and care for animals all my life and tend to have a good repore with most. When looking to my pricing, pricing is dependent on distance traveled and bathing rates start at $25. I typically use Fresh N’ Clean shampoo, but can use whatever is preferred. I have experience caring for shy/uneasy pups, as well as pups on both ends of the age spectrum. I currently work part time, so my availability is rather flexiible. It is a lot easier for me to do drop in visits when the stop is closer to me 😊 MY pets have free run of our yard, however for anyone else’s pet, I would either leash them or if the yard is fenced, let them run there. It’s important to stay outside with them to monitor and make sure the pets aren’t escape artists.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of various sizes and personalities and am comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of attention and affection. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine and making them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m responsible, reliable, and active, and I enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs. I also am more than happy to provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, playtime, feedings, and check-ins throughout the day. I prioritize being reliable and making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while maintaining a clean and safe environment. I also am more than happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
“Thomas was wonderful with our doggo! He sent plenty of updates, videos, and pictures. Our dog looked extremely happy! Thomas had great communication and was amazing all around. He helped us so much to avoid having to board our dog while on vacation. Our dog had an accident before one of Thomas visit and he was kind enough to clean it up and offer to run the carpet cleaner. Thomas is 10/10!”

About: I have experience with all different types of pets and have paid experience the past six years. I will make sure your pet stays on their routine and feels happy and loved while you’re away. During sits my wife tends to join me. She’s also very experienced with animals and has farm and exotic animal experience. If this is something you are not comfortable with, I am happy to adjust this. I am taking some time to start my own business with my wife. So there’s plenty of time and attention to go around. Most of my work can be scheduled around Rover. If I am housesitting however I may have to leave for a few hours at a time but usually no longer than 3 or 4 so that your pet gets the maximum amount of attention possible. Safety is always a top priority and your pups will always be kept on the same type of schedule they have when they are with you to ensure they aren’t thrown off their routine when you return.
About: We have cared for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. We do have experience in medication administration for animals. We are excited to serve you and your fur-family!

“Sydney did a great job of taking care of my pup, Mickey, while we were on vacation in Sevierville, May 8 -13, 2026. Sydney was good with Mickey and very reliable. She regularly drove Mickey to Patriot Park for walks. She even took care of Mickey on Mother's Day, which allowed my family and me to spend the day worry-free at Anakeesta Adventure Park. I hope Sydney's available again next year!”

“Alexis was fantastic! She had great communication from start to finish, brought treats for our dogs, and gave us detailed updates and photos during her visit. Knowing our dogs were being so well cared for made our day at Dollywood completely stress-free. She was reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. We would absolutely book with Alexis again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter or dog walker!”

“Allyson was great. She sent loads of pictures of our elderly dog. She obviously had no trouble helping him up and down the ramp, and helping him get up from laying down. He's an old dog (age 17) so needed a little assistance and she was willing and able to do so. She judged what he could handle, as it was warm and he is an old husky, kept in good contact with us during her visits.”
About: i have many years of experience caring for animals from guinea pigs all the way to a Great Dane. I have been a veterinary assistant but I currently work at a boarding and daycare facility. I have open availability. My current job is extremely flexible. I have my own pets that I care for as well as other pets with my current role at the boarding and daycare facility. My pets at my home are very well taken care of with a fenced yard. I would prefer to watch/care for your fur babies at your home as my outside dogs are not always friendly to new comers

“Elizabeth is absolutely AMAZING!!! We had a last minute change of plans and needed to board our pups over thanksgiving and she was quick to respond and accept the reservation. She not only came out to greet us, she helped me get both dogs and their things out of the car. Throughout the week she sent us constant updates of their shenanigans with both cute and funny pictures of them. I asked for a specific photo of one dog for instagram and she did a whole little photo shoot! Pretty much every day she took them to the greenway down the road for 1-2 mile walks and even helped work on their leash manners. If you need your dog boarded with someone you know you can trust, book with Elizabeth. We will be using her every time we go back to the mountains!!!”

“Look no further than this! The place is beautiful. The humans love and get your canine. Not only are they professional with meet and greet, observation updates and photos, they truly engage with their fur guests. Highly recommend for extended periods. We were most at ease.”

“Words can not fully express our gratitude for this amazing family!!! They took care of our spoiled Boxer while we were in town. They loved on her and treated her as one of their own. Cody & Rachel made sure to send us updates and communicated well. I absolutely wouldn't hesistate to use them again on a future trip. I not only feel like we found a wonderful pet sitter, but also a friend! They are very kind and caring. Highly recommend without reservation!!! Thank-you so much, you all are AWESOME!!!”

“Harvey loved his stay, a huge fenced in backyard, multiple walks per day, and Nugget was a great playmate. We received multiple photo updates each day. They were very accommodating with taking Harvey last minute and with pickups times. Highly recommended!”

“We have an 18-week old lab puppy named Sully who just returned from his 4-night sleepover with Jessica and her family. Being new puppy parents we are very protective of our little guy, and did quite a bit of research on Rover for a care giver, which is what led us to Jessica. Jessica let us have a meet and greet with her and her boxer Tucker before Sully’s stay which really gave confidence to our decision. During Sully’s stay we got tons of pictures and videos of our little man playing in the yard with Tucker and the kids. Jessica and her family made Sully a part of their ‘pack’ during his stay. He had such a great time, and was shown so much love and attention that we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home with us. We are so happy Sully found these new friends, and have already booked his stay for our next trip. It is so comforting knowing our Little Man is cared for with as much love and attention as we give him. Thank you Jessica and family!”

“April was able to watch my pup on short notice after my planned sitter had to cancel at the last minute - Bear came back from the weekend happy, healthy, and very tired. April checked in once or twice a day and provided pictures, would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”


“Ann was a phenomenal pet sitter! Looked her up last minute and she was extremely accommodating and professional! She even provided help learning the system due to being new to Rover! She took care of our sweet Sadie and kept us informed and updated along the way! She gets 5 ⭐️ from us! Thanks again!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine passion for all types of pets combined with a highly personalized and attentive approach to care. I treat every pet as if they were my own — learning their unique personality, preferences, and routine so they feel comfortable and happy right away. Above all, I’m deeply committed to building trust with both the owner and the pet. Previous clients often mention how relaxed and joyful their pets are when they return home — that kind of feedback means everything to me. Pet care is something I look forward to and easily weave into my daily life. I’m usually up early and start the day with some morning outside time and porch lounging. Being home during the day allows for me to provide regular potty breaks, play sessions, and companionship. Evenings are relaxed with dinner, ample outside time, and plenty of snuggle or training time. Combined with my own pets and also sitting for friends and family for years now, I have gained experience in many pet types and also experience caring for all stages of life-energetic pups to older dogs with special needs. This has taught me how to stay flexible and attentive to each pet’s individual routine, needs, and personality. I genuinely enjoy the responsibility and rhythm of pet care and would communicate regularly with you to make sure your see that your pet feels right at home. My goal is to keep you pet happy and comfortable while maintaining their normal routine while you are away- no matter the type of pet or they’re stage in life. I create a calm, safe, and loving environment for pets in my home. I start by learning their normal routine from the owner and do my best to keep it consistent. This means pity breaks matching your normal, fresh water always available, and meals served on their regular schedule with any needed medications. During the day I make sure they get plenty of playtime — whether that’s friend fun in my backyard with my two pups, play with their favorite toys, or gentle training sessions. I also give lots of affection and quiet companionship so they don’t feel lonely. At night, I provide a comfortable sleeping area (crate if preferred) or free range indoors to pick their own comfy place and I always do a final potty break before bed. My home is fully pet-proofed, clean, and free of hazards. I’ve cared for several friends’ and family dogs overnight and for extended stays, including high-energy young dogs to calmer senior pups and even stage in between. I send regular updates and photos if desired so owners can relax knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
“Highly recommend! Kristy was absolutely incredible with our girl Star! This was our first time leaving her with someone other than family, so we were a bit nervous. Kristy sent us multiple updates and pictures. She was very accommodating to our shy girl. Star was skiddish at first, but by the end of the stay she bloomed into her playful, loving self! We are so thankful for Kristy and will definitely book with her again in the future!”


“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.”

“Tami is just amazing! We wouldn't want our babies with anyone else if we can help it. She truly loves our babies like we do and we know they are in the best care while we're away. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a trip away, with no worries about the sitter you leave your little loves with. We use her every time we go away. You won't be disappointed.”

“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.”

“Cassy is so great! From the moment I reached out until I picked up my dog, she was friendly and made the whole process easy. She sent me updates about Hank throughout his time there and he really enjoyed himself.”

“Somer did an amazing job looking after my 14-year-old beagle mix. It’s hard leaving a senior behind but Somer put my mind at ease. I’d recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“I was terrified dropping off my dogs at a new place, and the dogs were extremely anxious, but Jenny took the time to integrate them, make them feel comfortable, and eased my anxiousness with updates and pictures.”
