“I'm so happy to have found Shawna to care for our Cash. He absolutely loves her. She kept us informed of his daily activities. I will continue to choose her for his care when we are away. I think he misses her and his play friends. I highly recommend her for all your needs.”

“Wendy and her family were absolutely AMAZING taking care of our cat while we were out of town for the holidays. She helped my cat become comfortable and feel right at home. I will most definitely have her pet sit for us again. Thank you so much!”


“We were so lucky we found Ann for our Rocky when we were going on vacation. Ann was very friendly and loved getting pics of our puppy. Love the playroom and would trust to bring Rocky to Ann in the future if needed.”

“Totally awesome and reliable sitter! My dog came home happy, well taken care of and he was clean 🙂 Renee also worked with my challenging schedule when I needed a few extra days of sitting shirt notice. Thank you so much!”

“Kristy was the best. She was my first my rover experience and I will definitely use her again. She sends so many pictures and always keep you informed. It soothed my mind knowing my nervous baby was in good hands.”


“Lauryn was great! This was our first time actually using Rover and it went very well. Lauryn was very responsive and took Sunny for a weekend on short notice which was really helpful for our family to take a last minute trip. Lauryn sent pictures and updates to let us know how it was going. We didn't have to worry at all. Highly recommend.”

“Jenny was fantastic with Cooper. He got plenty of exercise and play time with other dogs. He was definitely happy there and we were sent many videos and pictures during his stay. Would definitely recommend!”

“This was the first time we had left our puppy with anyone. Angie took the time to let us know how Molly was doing and sent pictures throughout the week. We will definitely call on Angela again.”

“Krystal was absolutely amazing! I had a cross-country move during which everything that could go wrong DID go wrong. Krystal was compassionate and flexible, and the one thing I didn’t have to worry about was whether Max was safe and well cared for. He is a city cat, so he gained a new appreciation for chicken watching, and her kiddos kept him snuggled and loved. They are a good distance from my new home, but I will make the trip for Krystal to keep him when I go out of town. She and her family were a true blessing when I needed help caring for Max. I will always be grateful.”

“Jeanie was absolutely wonderful! She took our dog Leo on very short notice and took amazing care of him. She sent frequent updates with pictures. Leo loved her, when we went to get him he kept walking back to her wanting her to pet him. I would recommend Jeanie to anyone and will definitely be using her again!”

“Ryan took great care of our energetic 7 month old puppy!! A great experience throughout from booking to pick up. Communication was always excellent and they sent tons of pics of our pup having a blast. Seemed like puppy paradise!! Definitely recommend!!”

“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.”


“Daniella is awesome! This was our little Morkie's (PJ) first time in Daniella's care and we could tell she felt right at home. We received several updates and pics each day, which was very comforting. I highly recommend Daniella, if you're looking for someone to treat your fur baby just like family. We'll definitely be booking with her again. Thanks, Daniella!”

About: I am a licensed veterinary technician so I am professionally trained to know how to take care of your animals especially if there is an emergency! I currently work full time at Lincoln Memorial University. I can only do weekends because of my schedule, but I can also see what I can do to help during the week! I do not have a fenced in yard. My dogs have been trained to stay in the yard. I have 3 dogs, they are younger and very playful. I also have 3 cats. Even though I do not have a fence, I can offer walks in the yard or walking up and down the road and put them on the leash while they use the bathroom. I have a whole room dedicated for the animals where they can stay unless they are kept uncaged then they can have free roam of the house.
“Amazing as always! I don’t ever even consider using anyone else because Millie loves spending time with them and sometimes I’m convinced she doesn’t want to come home with me after visiting with them. Love love love using this family and trust them with Millie completely.”

“Trey was AWESOME! Presley left his house looking super happy as she got to hang out with dogs all week! Trey also shared updates with us daily and some fun photos for us to enjoy. We will definitely be using Trey for any future trips :)”

“I wish I could give a 10 star! I am a helicopter dog parent. I will. Happily admit, I've left my dog with another lady who used to work with Rover who was excellent but I can say this without a doubt. My dog has never came home. So happy and energized realizing he had fun. He was exercised. He was spoiled with Amanda just like he is with me and that does my heart good. Amanda is my go-to regardless of the need. Thank you, Amanda!”

“Nyla was an amazing Rover! She was able to work with us last minute and was very flexible. She was also amazing with our difficult dog! Can't wait to book with her in the future.”

“Abi was terrific! Very quick in responses and great with all her communications. She did a fantastic job and sent me plenty of updates and pictures. I am definitely going to be using her services again!”

“Naomi provided our family with wonderful service and, more importantly with peace of mind. We have 2 geriatric cats, one of whom is not well, and a 7 year old who can be a handful. None of the 3 has been alone for a protracted period of time let alone been boarded. We are so thankful to have had Naomi take such good care of our fur babies. She left our home in great shape, and collected our mail and delivered packages which was icing on the cake. We highly recommend her and will seek her out if we go out of town again.”
“This is my second time having Vanessa look after my cat while I was away, and just like before, she did a great job. She always sends me updates with pictures of him, and let’s me know his litter has been scooped and that he’s been fed. My cat, while affectionate, is a shy guy who’s slow to warm up to people, and I can tell she does a great job respecting his boundaries and giving him attention on his terms. Thanks, Vanessa! 🙏🏻”

“Oh my goodness Megan C. Is the best! She took wonderful care of our cats and respected our home over our week long vacation. She communicated with us about the important and not important details of her visits. We came home to 2 very happy cats, clean litter boxes, a beautiful note and pictures of our babies while we were gone. We will definitely be using her again whether it’s for just a day or another 8 day getaway!”

“Jataelynn is an awesome pet sitter! She went above and beyond to watch my cat Alfred while I was away for a week. She was quick to respond to messages and sent frequent updates. I would highly recommend her!”

“Cy Cy, my cat, is a bit skittish and this was the first time we left her with a sitter. We had only been in Gatlinburg for a few hours when Frances sent a couple of pics of Cy Cy. She was on her back sleeping, just like she does at home, so she evidently felt safe. I really appreciate her care and anytime I need a sitter she will be my first call.”


About: Hi, I’m Danner. I love animals and have experience pet sitting for family friends, caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and anxious dogs, and I understand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and trustworthy looking after your furry family members. I personally know how valuable it is to have a sitter you can count on. I use Rover myself and appreciate the peace of mind that comes from knowing someone loyal and caring is taking care of my own dog. I strive to provide that same comfort and trust to every client I work with. I have several hundred hours of experience volunteering in the community, which helped me develop strong responsibility, attention to detail, and the ability to stay calm in stressful situations. I bring that same dedication and care into every pet-sitting opportunity. My availability is open, and I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and updates so you can feel confident your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: We’ve both had cats in the past and are comfortable with the basics of cat care, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving them plenty of space when they want it. It has been a few years since we’ve personally had cats, so dogs are definitely where most of our recent experience is. That said, we’re happy to follow your cat’s normal routine and instructions to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

“Ravynne was so sweet and kind, she communicated very well and took great care of our babies while we were gone! She kept us informed of any and every change or concern with the pets and even cleaned up some messes! 10/10 recommend!!”

About: I’ve had many dogs all my life. Family, friends, and neighbors have depended on me for house/pet sitting, pet feeding, bathing, and pet medication needs more seriously over the last 5 years. I plan to open a pet care business eventually, and I would love the opportunity to serve you while I work towards these ambitions. I love dogs, any size, and energy level. I work bi-weekly and my calendar reflects my exact availability! When I’m not working I stay home as much as I want/ need, which means your pet will have my full attention!! Your pet will be my best friend. I’m laying roots in Knoxville and simply can’t afford my own pet yet, so I am grateful to befriend yours!

I have been a veterinarian technician for 8 years now. I can take your babies on walks, I can cuddle them on the couch, I can bathe and brush and de-shed! I can administer any medication your animals need! I am 28 years old and I have a the most beautiful two boys; my 8 1/2 year old son Grayson, who is my spitting image twin, and my 3 year old Cash, who is my partner in crime and helps me love on your babies all day.

I will give your fur babies all the love and attention and care they need when you are not able to do so! Let me be your new Rover forever sitter. You will not regret it! ❤️ I have been a stay at home mom for almost 3 years now so that means a lot more time to love on and play with your pups. i am very flexible on availability and pricing so please do not hesitate and just shoot me a message and we can figure something out! 🙂 I have a huge flat yard with a newly installed privacy fence and 2 lovely, energetic dogs and 2 crazy little boys to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed, just please provide crate! I work from home, so I am available all day to let the dogs outside and roam! anytime they need to go outside they are able to! I have a fenced in backyard. That is plenty big enough for multiple dogs to run around. They have lots of space for plenty of activities.
About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all…especially the doggies! We have four rescue pups, a bunny and and a bearded dragon so we share the love with all different animals. I started a dog treat bakery business a couple of years ago that’s really starting to grow, so I’m now transitioning from the 9-5 job so I can pursue my passion for animals full time. I own my own dog bakery and work from home, so my availability is very flexible. We have an 11 acre farm with 2 separate “dog yards”. I will take your dog(s) for long walks and of course playtime if they like, give them food water and treats as needed, and I’m happy to accommodate with any special requests if your fur baby has a favorite activity, treat, or any special needs.
About: I’ve had a dog and cat for the past 5 years and love them!! I love running errands & being there for you and your pets would be my pleasure! I teach Monday and Friday and serve a few weekends. I can do evening runs, and the weekends are pretty flexible for me to walk. I have the softest spot for any animal! I’ve had birds, rabbits, hamsters, 2 dogs, a cat. I wish I could have more but my corgi is antisocial.

About: As a cat mom of four, I’ve learned firsthand how different every cat can be — from shy and independent to playful and attention‑seeking. I handle daily care like feeding, litter box maintenance, enrichment, and keeping routines consistent. I’m comfortable managing multiple cats at once, reading feline body language, and creating a calm, safe environment. Whether your cat needs quiet companionship or active engagement, I know how to meet their needs and help them feel secure while you’re away.

“Shawna is awesome with our big gsd Patsy, and Patsy loves going to Shawna’s to play. Shawna has a good set up at her house for the dogs and I couldn’t be happier with the level of care Shawna gives to Patsy.”

“Brooke did an amazing job! Excellent communication! It’s such a peace of mind knowing my dog is not in a crowded, noisy facility, but in a comfortable, personal home setting. Tank had so much fun, and we look forward to booking with Brooke again.”

“Callie had a great day at Wendy’s. She was awesome about sending updates throughout the day. We knew Callie was in good hands. She got lots of walks and belly rubs. We would definitely book with Wendy again. Thank you, Wendy, for giving us peace of mind and for giving our dog such a happy, loving place to spend the day.”

“Megan was amazing with Benji! She really cared and Benji warmed up to her right away. While we were gone, she kept us updated with check-ins and photos. It was clear that Benji had a great time. He was happy, relaxed, and was well cared for by Megan and her family. She is reliable, kind, and genuinely great with dogs. I’d definitely recommend Megan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their pup!”

“Amanda accommodated our last-minute request so we could take a tour at Cumberland Gap NHP. Her home, dog toy basket, and large yard were perfect for our standard poodle. I would highly recommend her.”

“I had a church event to attend, but my plans for my dog Gibbs didn't work out. I reached out to Ryan for last-minute daycare, and he responded within 15 minutes saying he could take care of him for the day. I dropped Gibbs off and felt very at ease knowing he was with Ryan. Throughout the day, I received seven updates and pictures showing how Gibbs was doing. When I picked him up, he seemed happy and had been well looked after. I'm planning to drop Gibbs off again in two days. This is the second occasion that Ryan and his family have taken care of my dog, Gibbs. When I got there to drop him off, Ryan came out to greet him, and Gibbs was thrilled to see him. Throughout the day, I received both pictures and a video showing the fun he was having with the family's dogs. I believe that Gibbs really enjoys his time with Ryan and his family. He always seems joyful when I come to pick him up. I can easily tell he has had an exciting day since he sleeps very soundly at night.”

“Jeanie was FANTASTIC with our boy! I had to look for doggy daycare for our young puppy rather last minute and she was so sweet and accommodating. We got lots of pictures of him during his stay. Our little guy had a blast and got lots of love and attention. When we arrived, his crate was all folded up and all of his belongings were packed up and ready for us to pick him up. She’s a real dog-lover and is great with potty training pups. We would definitely book with Jeanie again if needed. 10/5 stars.”


“Mysty was so happy with Lauryn because she was so attentive to Mysty and her son, he played with her son for hours!! She sent me pics and 1 video that made me and my hubby laugh so hard!! Her son was FANTASTIC and they chased each other around the house!! I would I highly recommend Lauryn to anyone!! She took care of our Mysty soo well!! We will use her alway!! 100 OUT OF 10!!”


“Dani is awesome, she send lots of updates and made us feel very comfortable with our dog being with her! Our 8 month old puppy has never been away from us so we wanted to try doggy day care to practice for our upcoming trip since we will have to board her. Would highly recommend Dani, her house is perfect for boarding/dog sitting :)”

About: I have been around animals my entire life! There was never a time I didn’t have a let of some kind. I was always helping neighbors and family members with their animals. I have worked at dog training facilities where we also had doggy daycare. I’ve worked many years at vet offices as well. Therefore my experience with pets with medical needs gives me the knowledge of taking care of your fur baby who may need a little extra attention. I am home throughout the day as well as nights and evenings so your fur babies will get all the love and play time they need! I have a large unfenced yard where your babies can enjoy running while attached to a long leash. They will get to roam around in the home as long as they are potty trained and dog friendly. I have a room that is a dedicated dog room where crates are kept for the dogs to be safely while I am away. YOUR PET MUST BE CRATE TRAINED! Please bring a crate for each dog you are boarding with me unless prior arrangements have been made! I do have a baby so your pet must be good with children.
“Talk about “above and beyond” - Khasia was amazing to work with - and on very short notice! Goldie was very well taken care of and I would not hesitate to use Khasia again. She was polite, professional, and very kind.”

“Nyla walked our dog for us. She was very knowledgable about dogs and listened to all of our concerns. She took good care of our dog, being attentive to other dogs that may have been a threat to avoid any negative interactions. She sent us lots of pictures and a report card! We plan to work with her again and would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve never gone a day in my life without a dog, and they’ve always been family — never just animals in the house. That same love and respect is what I bring to every pet I care for. With two years of experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m comfortable walking, feeding, playing, and giving oral or topical medications. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality so they feel safe, understood, and truly cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep routines consistent. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions to ensure safety at all times. I take time to make pets feel comfortable and calm in their own environment, keeping things clean and organized before I leave. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

About: I experience with a wide variety of animals and personalities. I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to rodents, reptiles, birds, and even farm animals. I grew up surrounded by animals and even helped run a small petting zoo with goats, chickens, rabbits, and a tortoise when I was younger. I’ve also worked alongside veterinary offices and rescues, caring for cats and rabbits. For the past year, I’ve been dog sitting and walking regularly, and I’m comfortable with large breeds, puppies, high energy dogs, and senior pets who need a gentler approach. I’m very patient, pay close attention to behavior, and always follow care instructions carefully to keep pets safe and comfortable. Pet care is basically my daily routine, and I make it a priority to be reliable, flexible and consistent for every pet I care for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and house rules. I’m very mindful of safety making sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior so I can quickly notice if something seems off. I respect your home and keep things clean and organized while you’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: (PSA - I’m married! So if you don’t mind a couple watching your pets, we’ll be more than happy to serve you! The below agreement will still apply, of course; there’s just a second set of hands. I can also watch your home and pets solo if that’s what you prefer. 🥰) Home/Pet Owner Satisfaction Agreement: - My personal motto is "Leave it better than you found it." - Your home will be taken care as if it was my own. - I will do light cleaning and even landscaping if needed, so your home stays well kept. - Your pets will receive the attention they deserve. - I will do my absolute best to make sure their daily routine stays the same as if you were home. - I will send you all the pictures and updates, so you can have peace of mind that your pets are happy, safe, and well taken care of. - If you ask me to do something, it will get done. - When you return home, you'll be able to rest immediately because your home will be clean and your pets happy (though definitely excited to see you again!). I always don't trust people easily, and I usually rely on myself a lot to get things done. So it'd be scary for me to have a stranger taking care of my home and pets. I'd worry constantly over my furry family. That's why I try to immediately put you at ease during our initial conversation and respect your home and pet(s). I grew up with pets (hence the 20 years of experience), so I am definitely an animal lover. I've also house/pet sit here on Rover and by word-of-mouth referrals for two years now and already have 32 reviews of pleased home and pet owners. After reading the reviews on my profile and browsing the photo gallery (Get ready for cuteness overload and not from me!), here's how you can work with me: 1. Send me a message. 2. In that message, tell me about your pets, their needs, and what dates you'll be gone. 3. We'll adjust the pricing if needed. 4. Before finalizing the booking, I will meet you and your pet(s) in your home for you to walk me through the daily routine and see if we're a good fit. 5. If both parties agree, we confirm the booking. It's that easy! Thank you so much in advance for trusting me with your home and pet(s)! In return, I will strive to take the best care of your home and pet(s). So that you won't loose any sleep worrying if they're okay or not. That way, you can actually enjoy your vacation or fully focus on business and/or family while you're gone. I work remotely full time as a writer and freelance marketer, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I’m completely available any day for whatever you need and will be able to give your home and pet(s) the attention they deserve. I will follow whatever instructions you give to a T. As a creative person, my brain can be scattered, but having instructions in a text or list helps a ton. That way, you have utmost peace of mind that your home and pet(s) are receiving the best care!
“10/10 would recommend Lindsey. My family is going through a major medical emergency, and knowing Lindsey is taking care of my fur babies is a huge weight off my shoulders. I never have to worry, and get the cutest picture updates. For the longest time my husband and I were hesitant to get a pet sitter for our 5 animals, but Lindsey completely changed our opinion. From the first meet and greet our animals loved her. If you’re looking for someone living and reliable, hire Lindsey.”
About: I’ve had different dogs in my life. I enjoy being with them. I give them baths and treats I do some grooming but mostly baths. I like to take them on walks at seven island bird park. I am currently working full time at a Mother’s Day out. I will have plenty of time to spend with your puppies! I like to meet new friends including furry ones they bring joy and excitement to my life. When I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life as I was growing up I wanted to be a vet. I always have a special place for dogs in my heart. They will be loved and cared for like they are my own. I don’t have a fence in yard I have an underground fence. I have a big yard that they can play in I have 2 furry friends that they can play with.
About: We’ve both been around dogs for most of our lives, so becoming your dog’s new best friends comes pretty naturally to us. We both grew up with dogs and have experience caring for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs. Over the years, we’ve watched dogs for coworkers, family, and friends and have cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including multiple dogs at once. Whether your pup wants to play, relax, get plenty of attention, or just follow us around the house all day, we’re happy to make them feel right at home. Our goal is simple: give your dog a safe, comfortable, fun place to stay and make sure they get plenty of love while you’re away. Our schedules are pretty consistent, which makes it easy for us to build pet care into our daily routine. We make sure there is plenty of time for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. When we’re caring for a pet, we plan around their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and settled while they’re with us. Evenings and weekends give us plenty of extra time for longer walks, playtime, and hanging out at home. We enjoy having dogs around, so pet care fits naturally into our day rather than feeling like an extra chore. Safety and trust are our top priorities. In our home, we make sure pets have a clean, comfortable environment with plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and time to relax. We follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, routines, and any special needs or behaviors we should know about. We understand that every dog is different, so we take the time to learn what makes them comfortable and never force interactions. When caring for multiple dogs, we pay close attention to their personalities and supervise introductions and playtime.

I can easily crate them if needed or preferred.
About: Born and raised on a farm in Ohio, caring for animals has been in my DNA my whole life! I love animals of every shape and size, and raised Pembroke Welsh Corgi's for many years. Since my corgi's have passed away, I've chose to share my love with the fur babies of family and friends. I'm a single professional that works afternoon/evenings in Knoxville. I am generally available anytime on Monday and Tuesday's, and all other mornings till 1 pm. Also able to transport to airports. I'm able to follow your instructions and routine to keep your beloved companions safe, comfortable and secure. I believe the familiar environment of their home is the best place while you are away.
About: I’ve cared for animals for as long as I can remember, and I knew early on that working with them was where I belonged. Over the years I’ve gained hands‑on experience with pets of all sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable with bathing, feeding, walking, cleaning, and providing general care to keep animals happy, healthy, and relaxed. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something that’s been a natural part of my life since childhood. ⭐ Special Skills • Medication trained and comfortable administering oral and topical treatments • Experienced with bathing, feeding, and maintaining consistent care routines • Skilled in cleaning, sanitation, and keeping pet areas safe and tidy • Strong leash‑handling experience with dogs of all sizes • Familiar with animal behavior, body language, and stress signals • Comfortable caring for high‑energy, large‑breed, and small‑breed pets • Kennel‑experienced with structured routines and caring for multiple animals at once I’m an online full‑time college student, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time at home. Because I study remotely, I’m able to build my day around pet care — feeding, walks, drop‑ins, playtime, and keeping pets comfortable. Caring for animals is already part of my daily rhythm, and my online schedule makes it easy for me to be consistently available and attentive. While I don’t offer boarding, my home environment is fully set up for cats and reflects the way I care for my own four. My apartment is every cat’s dream with toys, towers, enrichment activities, and plenty of stimulation. This experience helps me understand what keeps cats comfortable, engaged, and stress‑free. Even though pets won’t be staying here, the same level of structure, cleanliness, and attention carries over into the care I provide for your pets in their own home. When I’m caring for pets in their home, I follow your routines closely to keep everything familiar and comfortable. I handle feeding, litter or potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any cleaning needed to keep their space tidy. I pay attention to body language, comfort levels, and any changes in behavior. I also make sure your home stays clean, secure, and exactly how you left it.
About: I’ve had a dog and cat for the past 5 years and love them!! I love running errands & being there for you and your pets would be my pleasure! I teach Monday and Friday and serve a few weekends. I can do evening runs, and the weekends are pretty flexible for me to walk. I have the softest spot for any animal! I’ve had birds, rabbits, hamsters, 2 dogs, a cat. I wish I could have more but my corgi is antisocial.
About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all…especially the doggies! We have four rescue pups, a bunny and and a bearded dragon so we share the love with all different animals. I started a dog treat bakery business a couple of years ago that’s really starting to grow, so I’m now transitioning from the 9-5 job so I can pursue my passion for animals full time. I own my own dog bakery and work from home, so my availability is very flexible. We have an 11 acre farm with 2 separate “dog yards”. I will take your dog(s) for long walks and of course playtime if they like, give them food water and treats as needed, and I’m happy to accommodate with any special requests if your fur baby has a favorite activity, treat, or any special needs.
About: I have currently had a dog and cat(s) since I was born! I absolutely love having a companion around to bring with me everywhere provide all the love and attention to them! I recently in April 2022, rescued my German shepherd lab pup, Beau! He’s a great, big goofball and I love him dearly! I have continuously helped friends and family members and also a few neighbors here and there with helping drop in on their loved ones and taking care of them while they’re away! For dogs, I love all types! I enjoy providing a long walk for them, trips to the park if they have lots of energy you need them to burn off and even trips to the pet store for treats, or a pup cup for dessert, if allowed! I have always had a cat growing up as well! I currently have two; a beautiful orange tabby and a silver tabby! They are both amazing cats, love cuddling and I spoil them like they were dogs! I am available for drop ins, walks or coming to you for house sits if needed! my current schedule is Monday through Friday 8:30-5 ! So I am available all evenings, all day on weekends and between 4:30AM-8:00AM during the week for morning drop ins! I will easily follow your expectations while caring for your pet in your home; if in an apartment, I can take them on a long walk or a trip to the park; In the house I will always do some light cleaning and freshening of their bowls, bed and play areas and making sure they’re following expectation if not allowed on couches or if they are allowed then lots of cuddles and play time for both kitties and doggos!
About: I had a Bichon Frise from age of 8 to 19. I have taken care of my friend’s bulldog and golden doodle for a year or so and I have also dog sat wheaten doodles and labradors. I also volunteered at the ARL! I am a college student looking to spend some time with doggos! I work part time and volunteer but I have a pretty flexible schedule! I feel comfortable putting leashes and harnesses on dogs as well as letting into crates if needed! I feel comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and understand that some dogs just don’t like to be around others & I can respect and control that!
About: I own 2 super sweet dogs! I have had pets all my life gowing up and i was the one to take care of them. I’ve done many dog sitting jobs as walk ins and as staying over night. I love getting to bring joy to the lonely animals while families are gone! I am able to come at any times around my classes. I have a very light schedule with in person classes. I work one job 2 days a week for very short hours. I am very flexible and able to help with whatever. I always make sure to check the food and water. I like ti let them out but also get them moving when i come to get out some energy! I also will always give good love to the sweet animals:)

Lauryn sent pictures and updates to let us know how it was going. We didn't have to worry at all. Highly recommend.”

“Jenny was fantastic with Cooper. He got plenty of exercise and play time with other dogs. He was definitely happy there and we were sent many videos and pictures during his stay. Would definitely recommend!”

We'll definitely be booking with her again. Thanks, Daniella!”

“I wish I could give a 10 star! I am a helicopter dog parent. I will. Happily admit, I've left my dog with another lady who used to work with Rover who was excellent but I can say this without a doubt. My dog has never came home. So happy and energized realizing he had fun. He was exercised. He was spoiled with Amanda just like he is with me and that does my heart good. Amanda is my go-to regardless of the need. Thank you, Amanda!”

“Cassy took the best care of Red and Xena during their boarding stay! She sent me regular updates with photos and videos. She provided a home environment for our dogs where they received lots of attention and play time. I highly recommend Cassy for private boarding!”

“Quincy had a nice time with Donna. She slept in a large crated area and played in her fenced yard. It was a great spot to board our dog when we stayed in a rental house in the area that did not allow dogs.”

“Amazing! 10/10! I cannot recommend them enough. They were super sweet, made sure I was updated once a day, and treated Loki like a prince. I couldn’t ask for better.”
