“Alyson always takes great care of Aerys. She is very communicative and quick to respond. I would recommend her to anyone. She will care for your pet, like it's her own.”
“Ken and Leslie are outstanding sitters. I feel money leaving my precious Gully with them. A home away from home. They are always doing activities with the dogs and Gilly loves to stay there with his buds. I highly highly recommend them. I drive an hour there and back so what does that tell you?”
“We were heartbroken when our normal sitter we found on here moved away! We tried a few others on here and none loved them like Jessica did… until now! I felt completely at ease as soon as we walked in and Lucy made herself right at home. Alexa has kept me updated the whole time and loved her like she was her own. She has become our new favorite dog person!”
“Jennifer and her pup, Maddie, were great sitters. Apparently Bullitt and Maddie are best buds now. I think Bullit was torn between wanting to play with Maddie and coming home with me when I picked him up! Jennifer is promptly communicative, caring, courteous, flexible and a sweet dog mom. We will use her again!”
“Jennifer and her family were amazing! I've never felt so at ease on a vacation before. Jennifer sent pics and updates daily. My doggies were treated like a member of their family. ❤️ I highly recommend and will definitely use this sweet family again.”
“They are so great, they care for our boys like their own. They understand their different personalities and cater to them. We were running out of town and forgot a couple things but they were so accommodating. The boys always come back healthy and well care for. We are already booking our next trip out of town and will use them again :)”
“Hannah was so wonderful!! I am beyond grateful for her and her family. She took regular pictures and sent me updates throughout his stay. They snuggled and loved on our “baby” just as we would have, and he was so much happier with Hannah and her family then he ever was anywhere else!!”
“Natalie and her family provided an excellent environment for my dog. He was comfortable from the beginning and I felt good about him staying while I was away. Natalie provided daily updates and pictures which I appreciated. I plan on using Natalie agian and recommend her services.”
“Highly recommend! I felt very comfortable leaving my pup here and would certainly rebook. Jessica was very responsive and I truly felt she understood my dog’s needs. She is quick to respond, her home is set up well, and my dog was very relaxed when I came to get him. Thank you!!”
“Leigha took such good care of Buddy while we were away on a 10 day mission trip to El Salvador. She and her family went above and beyond to make him feel at home and loved. She also kept us updated with pictures and texts every day. I would highly recommend Leigha”
“Sheryl was able to keep our Cane Corso very happy for several days while we attended a funeral out of town. She came to meet him prior to his visit to her house and got to know him. She was totally used to dogs and expected his “I don’t know my own size” puppy attitude. She made it all very easy and updated with lots of pictures and communication to ease our minds about being away from him. I will definitely be using her for all of my dog boarding need from now on!!”
“Carola is such a wonderful pet sitter!! She takes such good care of my Susie; she sends me daily photos & updates & I never have to worry about Susie’s well being. Carola is a blessing to our family 😊”
“Amanda did a wonderful job! Very friendly. Took great care of our two dogs. And provided an update every day we were gone, sometimes including photos. Will definitely use her again.”
“Very polite and punctual when picking up my fur baby. She communicated very well and sent pictures showing how much fun my baby was having!!! Will definitely be reaching out again when we need another sitter!!”
“Eric did an amazing job watching our dog! Quick communication for our last minute booking and fun picture updates to let us know our dog was having a great stay. Highly recommend!”
“Do you want your pets to feel so at home and comfortable that they are upset when they leave? Mark's house is the place to be! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark helped us on short notice and was able to provide us peace and reassurance that our babies were cared for! Mark kept our male and female German Shepherds, and they had an absolute blast. Mark sent us multiple photos and videos and kept us very up-to-date on what they were doing throughout their visit. He asked questions about their personalities and needs that showcased his care and attention to detail. With his knowledge and experience with German Shepherds, it really shined in the care he provided them! I would definitely recommend Mark, and especially recommend Mark to people with German Shepherds or working line dogs! We and our babies would love to use Mark again!”
“Jacqui was wonderful with our doodles! They had the perfect weekend! She texted and sent pictures often and was quick to respond! 10/10 will definitely use her for our future needs!”

“Great, great, great! Ken was always willing to accommodate our hectic schedule. He and Ziggy, my cat, get along great, and I know that the cat is in good hands. Ken is a regular, whenever we go out of town.”
“Alyson is an attentive and caring sitter going above and beyond. During her stay my cat had an emergency medical issue that Alyson was able to not only take her to the emergency vet for but then made sure she received her medications as prescribed. I was initially worried but I knew Alyson was taking such good care of her and she kept me up to date on how she was doing. Thank you Alyson for going above and beyond and keeping my cat safe and cared for.”
“Sam does an excellent job. The cats were just as fat and happy upon my return. It was a week long trip and knowing Sam was taking care of the cats was a huge relief. I've already hired her for my next trip.”
“If I could give Megan 10 stars I would! She took such great care of our mini pig. She always came to our house on time and provided great updates and pictures. She is dependable and really loves animals. Would highly recommend her!”
“Kristen was great! Unfortunately my little Lilly didn’t want to make an appearance and hid the whole time, but I was thankful to have Kristen check in on her to make sure she was ok!”
“Absolutely Excellent. She took good care of my cats. I would let her be with my cats and come in my house anytime. I felt safe knowing she was there. She is good people. She is at the top of my list of drop-in cat sitters moving forward. My happy cats are retracting their claws and sending her gentle purrs. I trust her.”

About: What sets me apart from other cat sitters is my deep understanding of feline behavior and my patience with all personalities—from playful kittens to shy seniors. I’m experienced in administering medications, providing gentle care for older cats, and creating a calm, loving environment where your cat feels safe and happy.
About: I have had many animals in the past and to me they have always been family so whether it's my own animal or yours I will love it and treat it as my own. I am looking for experience and people willing to allow me to work with their animals, because eventually I am wanting to open my own rescue or shelter. So if you could at least take me into consideration that would be greatly appreciated. Pet care fits into my routine because I am looking for a good paying job with a flexible schedule. Like I've said I love animals. I would be more than happy to spend a day with dogs. It's a dream of mine to open my own daycare and this is a huge step. I'm happy to say I can finally offer boarding and so much more. I'm currently working as a night shift kennel tech but I am changing jobs soon and I will have all the time in the world to care for care for your pets. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of running space. They are welcome to come and go as they please through the back door. I have a very friendly 10 month old Beagle and every other weekend we have our son. So no matter when your fur baby comes to stay with us they will always have some one to play with. Wether it's our dog, our son, my husband, or myself.

“I would highly recommend Alyson. She sends pictures and responds immediately if you ask for an update on your pet. My dog went for doggie daycare and was very eager to go and play with her dogs! I would definitely use her services again.”
“Ken was just fabulous. Arranging the stay couldn't have been easier, and he made me so comfortable leaving Rosie with him. He's obviously an animal lover, and Rosie opened up to him immediately. Throughout the morning, he sent photos and updates - including of a lovely hike along a bucolic nearby stream. Come afternoon, I picked up a tired and happy dog. Rosie will miss him.”
About: I am a mother to a wonderful eleven year old, Kiera. And we have a boy dog named Koda! My love for animals started at a young age and I know that love will never end. I have spent the past 10 years working in restaurants as a manager, event worker, host, server, bartender. I've also spent the last five years working with kids, in a childcare setting at a local church \ pre school. As I move through this next chapter I just recently received my degree for holistic health and am furthering my educations for specifications in holistic health care. I recently moved back to Bristol so I am ultimately looking for a second income while I get everything established. I am available for almost anything and look forward to being able to love and play with all of your fur babies! I recently moved back to the area and am doing part time work until I am fully re-established. My child is in school and I have plenty of open areas to take care of your fur babies! I always treat my animals with the same love and care I treat any person or child in my care. I have a lot of compassion and love for all living beings!
“Alexa was wonderful! She was great to communicate with and answered all of m questions! She took wonderful care of Rae and we love her and would definitely book again!”
“Brutus had a day of doggy daycare with Sheryl today and had a ball! She was so attentive to him- playing with him and taking him on walks. Sheryl sent pictures, videos and updates. She followed his schedule exactly. We couldn’t have been more pleased! We plan on using Sheryl in the future anytime we need care for Brutus!”

“My pups love going to Leigha for daycare! I know they are safe and being cared for with lots of love! Leigha keeps me updated throughout the day with pictures too! We will continue our weekly visits as long as possible!”
About: Hello! My name is Kelley and I have lots of furry children. I have three Siberian Huskies and a Shiba Inu and they make life fun and adventurous! I have experience working with cats and dogs of all sizes and behaviors. I also have experience caring for rabbits as I had my own. Growing up I volunteered at the VCA Adoption center where we took care of the animals looking for homes and spent a few years of my adult life volunteering and running a rescue. I absolutely love animals and treat all exactly as I would want someone to treat my own. 😁 I am available most evenings after 4PM or anytime on Thursdays. I try to be as flexible as I can for last minute bookings to assist in any way I can. My entire front yard is fenced in with 6ft chain link fencing. It has a mini agility course as a fun activity for the dogs. I also have extra crates and can crate if/when needed. If I am coming to your home I will treat it and your pets with love and respect.
About: I will continue your ways of interacting with your dogs. I will tailor my approach to your fur baby. I am experienced in the delicate handling of senior pets, including mobility assistance, administering oral or topical medications, and monitoring for subtle changes in health or behavior. For young pets, I reinforce your specific training cues and house-breaking routines to ensure consistency while you're away, helping them stay on track with their development. I use positive reinforcement and a calm energy to manage high-anxiety pets or those who are easily overstimulated, ensuring they feel safe and secure. I’ll send you consistent updates and photos so you can see exactly how your pet is thriving, giving you total peace of mind. Would you like to discuss a custom care plan or schedule a meet-and-greet to see how I interact with your pet? I've been around dogs all my life and will treat your pet like I treat my own. We don't deserve the love they bring and give out unconditionally. I'm retired. I have plenty of time to devote to your pet. Plenty of time to play, walk and snuggle with your fur baby! Our yard is not fenced. We have 10+ acres to take walks. We have 3 dogs who love to play. Our pack is very excepting and inclusive.
About: With the proper instructions, I can and will do anything to give your pet the care he/she needs. I have no problem administering medications of any kind. My wife and I have a yard with sections fenced and not fenced, so I can take dogs out on a leash to relieve themselves, or let them out to run and play. There is also a picnic area near my house with a paved walking trail for walks. I have had and cared for dogs my entire life. Growing up we mainly had large dogs, but I have also cared for small and medium dogs through family. I am comfortable caring for any size dog with any set of needs! I am currently a stay-at-home husband, so I am home all day, every day. My wife works during the day and is home in the evenings and on weekends. Whatever I do during the day will revolve around the care i am currently giving. My wife and I have a home with a fenced backyard. We also have parts of the yard that aren't fenced. We have about 1.5 acres, so I can walk your pet around the yard on a leash or let him/her roam around the fenced in area. I can play with your pet however he/she likes. We can also go to the paved walking path about 5 minutes away. We have 2 medium sized herding dogs that love to play with other dogs. If your dog isn't able or doesnt want to play, no problem! They have experience with small, large, young, and elderly dogs and know how to interact with any needs and temperament. We also have 2 cats that may sniff your dog, but will otherwise do their own things. They have also interacted with different types of dogs and know what to do. Both of our families also love animals so if anyone comes by, it'll just be more love for the fur babies! There is also a veterinarian about 15 minutes away just in case. We are super flexible. I am a stay at home dad and my wife will be working from home in October. We can be accommodating to your needs! We have a fenced in yard which includes a deck and quite a bit of running space. Our dogs love to run up and down the hill, but also like to sun bathe on the porch.
About: Leaving your loved ones that cannot talk and describe their experience is scary sometimes. You want to be able to trust that they are in good hands with someone who will abide by your training, rules, and care as well as someone who will love them, show them as much attention as possible (especially important since their Person is away), and pay attention to their cues. I have been around cats and dogs my entire life, and love them more than most of the human race if we are being honest. I take pride in making new cat and dog friends wherever I go, and I can't wait to become friends with your best friend! While I love dogs and will enjoy caring for and playing with them, I am particularly drawn to cats. I have experience with both (but yes, primarily cats) since early childhood, and know how to read their body language and gradually warm up to them and build their trust. I truly enjoy the play and attention aspect that is needed when pet caregiving, and while no one enjoys cleaning a litter box or being a pooper scooper, it's something that is worth the reward of their company. I am usually home, with only things like taking my family to their job, school, and sitter as well as store runs taking up my time. I do gig work such as this and shopping/errands/delivery so I won't be away from the pet care job much if a boarding situation, and not for long increments when I am. Safety is key, I check exits before exiting, I will not leave two animals alone together that previously haven't been alone together nor will I leave them alone with kids, mine or any others. I will follow the owner's wishes as to not compromise their pet's routine or anything that could risk their health or wellbeing.
“Cynthia was so good to my sweet coon hound. Ellie loved her big yard and Cynthia even had her family’s coon hound come over to play with her. We got pictures and updates. Ellie will be visiting again for sure.”
“Hands down the best experience I have ever had with a dog sitter! Natalie was so dedicated to my sweet Heidi. I will have to admit, I felt some kind of way with how eager my sweet girl was to hop out of the car to go see and spend the day with Ms . Natalie 😂😂. This truly has been a perfect match for our family .”

“So Happy to have found Stephanie on Rover for Sailor Girl's walks! Stephanie is dependable, trustworthy, very knowledgeable in caring for dogs.

“Alexa was great! She was super communicative and showed up on time every single day for a month to walk our two dogs while we were settling into a new house. She got them plenty of exercise each day, gave updates on how they did on each walk, adjusted walk lengths based on the weather and how much energy the dogs had each day, and overall was super attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Our boys are missing her already, and we will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Kayla was my dog walker for nearly a year and she did a wonderful job! She was always dependable never missing a walk and was so sweet to my pup. I would still be using her if I had not moved away!”

About: I work as a veterinarian technician, and I am certified in animal medicine. I have been walking dogs, boarding dogs, and doing in home visits for many years. I love all animals and care for each as if they were my own. All pets have free roam of my home inside and out. They truly will live as they do in their own home. No pet is kenneled! (unless deemed necessary by owner) Although I work in a Veterinarian Clinic, your pets will not ever be alone. Someone is always home with them, even when I personally can not be. You won’t be disappointed with the care they receive here. I also have a Facebook page you dedicated to the pets I board, and walk. I currently work part time at a Vet Clinic in Kingsport. I only work 20 hours a week. So most of my time is spent here. Even when I’m Not here someone always will be home. Hopefully I can soon have pet sitting as a full time gig and I’ll be home and with the pets ALL THE TIME!! Our house is in a very quiet neighborhood, we have 3 dogs a cat who has 3 legs we have an acre of land they can run around on, but it’s not fenced in yet. We have to walk one of ours out on a leash and can accommodate this with your pet as well.
About: I have had a bunch of pets since I was a kid! I enjoy bathing pets, playing and walking them! I love making them feel loved and special! I work part time and am a full time student but I always have down time that will allow for breaks, walks in the park and play time! Pets deserve the same respect as their owner and I intend to treat them as if they were! I want to make sure not only the animals feel safe but so do the owners!
“Kristy was fantastic with my two mutts when I had to leave for a three-day work trip. They had a lot of separation anxiety but she managed them perfectly and sent lots of wonderful pictures of both the dogs as well as my cats that came and went while she was here. I am so happy to have her now established as a resource for future pet sitting!”
About: I have loved animals of every kind since I was a child. I’ve had numerous dogs in my life, and I currently have my own cat. I would want the best care possible for my pets, and I know you do too! I promise to treat and love them as my own :) I have experience working with dogs with anxiety disorders as well! I am a college student, with weekday availability. My weekends are not currently available! I believe that pets should be cared for intently, and I would want to be as attentive as possible. I treat my pet like any other member of my family, because they are. I care for my cat deeply, and want to provide her the best care possible. I would want my pets to have a loving and safe sitter, so I want that for you too! Pets would be loved and receive much attention!
About: I have cared for animals for as long as I can remember and am excited to begin my journey on Rover! I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, neighbors, and clients, and I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I especially enjoy caring for active, energetic dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. I also have experience administering medications and caring for puppies who need extra patience, supervision, and consistency. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or sticking to your pet’s routine, I am dedicated to treating every animal as if they were my own. I also have an English Cocker Spaniel named Ollie, who reminds me every day how important quality care and love are for our furry family members. 🐾 As a college student currently on break, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. This allows me to provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, feedings, medication administration, and companionship throughout the day while keeping your pet’s routine consistent. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines. I have experience caring for puppies, administering medications, and handling energetic dogs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾🐶🐱
About: I don’t just watch dogs—I pay attention to them. As a dog owner myself, I know every pet has their own personality, routines, and quirks. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual. Whether your pup needs playtime, companionship, structure, or just someone who understands them, I’ll care for them the way I’d want my own dogs cared for. Basic experience in some training. I’m available after 4 pm most days and all day on weekends. I’ll have more availability starting in July! If you’re interested, ask and I’ll see if I can accommodate! I care for every pet according to their individual needs and routine. In my clients’ homes, I work to keep things as normal as possible by following feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any household rules. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and updates so owners can feel confident their pets are doing well. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment with supervised play, regular potty breaks, exercise, fresh water, and lots of companionship. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, energy level, and preferences so they feel secure and cared for while their family is away. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free, whether they’re in their own home or mine.
About: I grew up in a house full of animals my entire life. I have helped watch my families pets for as long as I can remember. I have watched Dogs from all ages puppies to seniors. I work as a server Wednesday-Sunday nights. I would be able to do Check ins any morning I was needed to because I don't usually work until 4 or 5. I have a spare bedroom in my house that could be used for boarding purposes if needed but would also be open to letting them sleep on the couch or bed. I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have a decent sized back yard and I live across the street from a walking trail. I do have one pet cat, she is almost a year old and has been around multiple cats and dogs with no problem and would be excited to have a play mate.
About: I have had pets ever since I was a little girl. I started off taking care of cats, and then I became a fur momma to a puppy. I am currently raising two puppies on my own.

They are crate trained, and we are currently working on potty training! They have all their shots, and I make sure to give them a lot of play time and play dates to keep them happy!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is how I naturally fell into pet sitting through caring for family and friends' pets, which soon caught the attention of neighbors. This journey into pet sitting has deepened my passion for my community. I have experience caring for a diverse range of animals including dogs of all sizes and ages, cats, and pets with special medical needs. I'm also skilled in looking after birds, fish, and chickens, and am enthusiastic about expanding my expertise to include even more types of animals. Whether it's training puppies, providing comfort to senior pets, or administering medicine, my approach is always compassionate and tailored to the specific needs of each pet. I'm eager to bring my love and dedication to more families, helping everyone feel secure that their beloved animals are in caring hands. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine as I work from home, which provides the flexibility to adapt to the specific needs and preferences of each pet. This flexibility allows me to tailor my day around the pets I care for, ensuring that they receive attentive and personalized care on a schedule that suits them best. Whether it's multiple walks, playtime, feeding, or just being there for company, I'm readily available to make each pet's day better and brighter while their owners are away. When caring for pets, either in my home or at a client's, I prioritize creating a comfortable and consistent environment for each pet. Before any stay begins, I communicate closely with the pet parent to understand what a normal day looks like for their pet. This allows me to tailor the pet's experience specifically to their routine and preferences, ensuring there is minimal change and maximum comfort during their stay. By maintaining their usual schedule — from feeding times to favorite play activities — I make the transition as smooth and stress-free as possible, allowing pets to feel secure and at ease whether they're in their home or mine. This customized approach helps ensure that each pet receives the best possible care while under my supervision.

“Alyson always takes great care of Aerys. She is very communicative and quick to respond. I would recommend her to anyone. She will care for your pet, like it's her own.”
“Ken and Leslie are outstanding sitters. I feel money leaving my precious Gully with them. A home away from home. They are always doing activities with the dogs and Gilly loves to stay there with his buds. I highly highly recommend them. I drive an hour there and back so what does that tell you?”
“We were heartbroken when our normal sitter we found on here moved away! We tried a few others on here and none loved them like Jessica did… until now! I felt completely at ease as soon as we walked in and Lucy made herself right at home. Alexa has kept me updated the whole time and loved her like she was her own. She has become our new favorite dog person!”
“Jennifer and her family were amazing! I've never felt so at ease on a vacation before. Jennifer sent pics and updates daily. My doggies were treated like a member of their family. ❤️ I highly recommend and will definitely use this sweet family again.”
“They are so great, they care for our boys like their own. They understand their different personalities and cater to them. We were running out of town and forgot a couple things but they were so accommodating. The boys always come back healthy and well care for. We are already booking our next trip out of town and will use them again :)”
“Hannah was so wonderful!! I am beyond grateful for her and her family. She took regular pictures and sent me updates throughout his stay. They snuggled and loved on our “baby” just as we would have, and he was so much happier with Hannah and her family then he ever was anywhere else!!”
“Natalie and her family provided an excellent environment for my dog. He was comfortable from the beginning and I felt good about him staying while I was away. Natalie provided daily updates and pictures which I appreciated. I plan on using Natalie agian and recommend her services.”
“Highly recommend! I felt very comfortable leaving my pup here and would certainly rebook. Jessica was very responsive and I truly felt she understood my dog’s needs. She is quick to respond, her home is set up well, and my dog was very relaxed when I came to get him. Thank you!!”
“Amanda did a wonderful job! Very friendly. Took great care of our two dogs. And provided an update every day we were gone, sometimes including photos. Will definitely use her again.”

“Eric did an amazing job watching our dog! Quick communication for our last minute booking and fun picture updates to let us know our dog was having a great stay. Highly recommend!”
“Do you want your pets to feel so at home and comfortable that they are upset when they leave? Mark's house is the place to be! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark helped us on short notice and was able to provide us peace and reassurance that our babies were cared for! Mark kept our male and female German Shepherds, and they had an absolute blast. Mark sent us multiple photos and videos and kept us very up-to-date on what they were doing throughout their visit. He asked questions about their personalities and needs that showcased his care and attention to detail. With his knowledge and experience with German Shepherds, it really shined in the care he provided them! I would definitely recommend Mark, and especially recommend Mark to people with German Shepherds or working line dogs! We and our babies would love to use Mark again!”
“Jacqui was wonderful with our doodles! They had the perfect weekend! She texted and sent pictures often and was quick to respond! 10/10 will definitely use her for our future needs!”

“Jacades was awesome! She accepted us last minute, she was great with duke and made our trip less stressful and more enjoyable and at peace with where Duke was at. Duke had a great time with them and I would 100000000% use her and her fiancé again! She sent me updates without asking, he looked very content with them. Thank you so much jacades for taking such great care of my boy!”
“Cassandra was AMAZING with Boo! She sent me updates and pictures everyday— I could tell my doggy was very happy and safe! Can’t say enough good things about Cassandra. Will definitely be requesting her dog sitting services again… highly recommend! 🫶🫶🫶”
