“JaNiya is a phenomenal housesitter, especially if you have shy animals (but *any* animal would love her!). We have two skittish greyhounds and a very shy adopted cat. Within one day, our cat was sitting in JaNiya’s lap, and our dogs were relaxed and happy. I couldn’t believe it! She has such a calm, tender presence, and you can tell she adores animals. She’s even studying to be a veterinarian! Do not pass her up! She’s the only housesitter we’ll use from now on!”
“Dana a great job taking care of our dog while we were away on vacation for a week. She came over and made sure that everyone was on the same page with expectations. She gave us regular updates with pictures on how our dog was doing. She even left a sweet note welcoming us back home and letting us know she enjoyed taking care of our dog. I look forward to booking with Dana in the future and would definitely recommend her to anyone.”
“Sofia was great! I got cute pics of my girls when I was away and knew I didn’t need to worry about them. She left my house as clean as I left it, which I was so grateful for! Will for sure book with her again”
“We were in need of a last minute house/pet sitter for graduation weekend. Drake was quick to respond with his availability. He even met us beforehand to ensure he was the right fit for our animals. Spoiler - he absolutely was! If you're looking for someone highly professional, calm, and patient with your animals - then hire Drake. He sent regular updates and gave our animals so much love in our absence. Thank you Drake!”
“Bonnie was great to help us out with our 2 dogs over the holidays! She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our pups and home while we were gone. She sent the cutest picture updates and managed to handle our crazy Labrador that isn’t always the easiest!”
“Cayla was amazing with our girls and we’re so thankful to have our first time using rover be stress free. She was wonderful with timing, sending pictures and videos and giving the girls love! We felt comfortable knowing our dogs were safe at home with her and will be looking to rebook for our next vacation. Thank you again, Cayla!”
“Sydney provided in-home dog sitting during a particularly challenging calendar period to secure any care at all. Communications were great, both leading up to and during the sitting period. She's also an impressive dog photographer.”
“I had a fantastic experience with Katie! She provided regular updates and took excellent care of my dog. Her attentiveness and dedication were evident, and I will definitely book with her again. Highly recommended!”
“Shelby has been such a blessing to us. She has been there when we needed her to take the best care of our 15 year old goldendoodle. He requires patience and attention & I never worry when she takes care of him. Thanks Shelby!!”
“Justin was great. Communication was fantastic. He kept us updated and sent pics. He took great care and played with the dogs and just made me feel better that someone was home with my baby. I would definitely recommend Justin and would book with him again.”
About: Hey! I'm Darby, I have 6 years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes including dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals. Pet sitting was the fist way I discovered I could make money when I was in middle school, and I still love it to this day! I have about 1.5 years of experience working as a trained veterinary technician. This means that I am comfortable working with special needs animals, providing special diets, and administering medication. I am also familiar working with animals that may be anxious. Right now, I'm studying animal biology at The University of Tennessee, working at an exotic animal clinic, and am starting to apply for veterinary school. Relevant Classes: Animal Anatomy and Physiology, Cellular & Molecular Biology, Small Animal Veterinary Medicine I'm currently working part-time and taking college courses online. My best availability is all-day Friday-Sunday, but I can be flexible if I have a heads up! I like to make sure I have everything I need to know from a client before they leave so I don't have to bother them too much while they're away! This includes medication, feeding schedule, behavioral problems, and any space that may be off limits to myself and/or the pet. I'm no stranger to a mess, so no worries if your pet is prone to accidents.
“Dominique cared for my two dogs over a weekend. She texted me with questions when needed and sent videos/pictures of the pups after each visit. The house was in great shape when I got home. Thanks for taking such good care of Sam and Poppy, Dominique!”
“Nicole was so helpful and responsive and so so sweet with our babies, they took to her right away and she adapted to all their senior needs, sent picture updates and answered all questions! So glad to have found her.”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for awhile, and I absolutely love forming bonds with animals! I’ll be able to provide my reference list if that makes you feel more comfortable! Hey guys! So my schedule is very flexible this summer. I am taking summer classes at UTC on Monday and Wednesday from around 9am-2pm!! I have my own dog, a 9 month old golden doodle, and he is my whole life! And with my schedule I am able to give him all the playtime and care he needs, and I’ll do the same for your animals!! I have a fenced in yard at my house that I let my baby run around it! I also take him on walks, to the dog park, and on hikes for him to get some fresh air! For your animal, I can fill whatever accommodations you need me to, whether that be walking the animal, putting him in the crate, or whatever else you may have in mind!
“Hunter was absolutely amazing! He took great care of our two spoiled dogs and house while we were away. Our house was spotless and our pups were happy upon our return. He sent pictures and updates of our boys and was very respectful of our home. I would definitely recommend and use Huntter again in the future!”
“Charish was incredibly professional and great with my two pups while we were away. The dogs were tired and the house showed no trace she was even there. I received plenty of updates and had no worries at all while they were in her care. I look forward to have her watch them in the future!”
About: I’ve been caring for my furry family members since I was a young girl. I have trained puppies and cared for senior, ailing dogs as well. My pets have been and continue to be my family and are treated with respect and dignity and lots of love. I have clients whom I have cared for their cats and dogs and continue to have relationship and care for these animals. I am available for pet sitting for any length of time while you are away on vacation or stopping by throughout the day to feed, walk and play with your furry family member. I feed, play and talk with them, walk with them and keep them active to ensure a healthy life. I rest with them when they need it and groom them regularly- bathing them when needed, brushing them, providing oral care, and ensuring overall health with whatever supplements they need as well as visiting the vet when needed.
“Maria was the BEST. We have had many dogsitters over the years, and she was the best sitter we have ever had. We were going out of the country and on very different timezones, so we were very hopeful she was going to be really communicative. She knocked our expectations out of the park. She sent so many pictures (and as an aside should be a professional pet photographer - the photos were fantastic!), frequent updates, walked our boy a LOT (he thrives on exercise, so we really appreciated this more than we can say), and even took him to her own home during a tornado warning, so he was not here alone. We could not have asked for better care and communication. As an added bonus, Maria kept our house in lovely shape - everything was clean and organized when we returned. She even washed, dried, and remade the bed so that we had clean sheets when we arrived late at night, all without ever being asked!! I cannot recommend Maria enough!! She is so kind, caring, compassionate and overall lovely. We feel SO lucky she was able to sit for us. You will adore her and so will your pets!!”

Sydney was a great pet/house-sitter and will definitely be hiring her again. She listened to all instructions and provided pictures of the animals and was very quick to answer the phone. Our house was left in perfect condition as well. Our pets are happy and healthy :)
Dana was absolutely amazing! She kept us updated on the dogs every day and truly cared for them like they were her own. She sent pictures, communicated with us the entire time, and was the sweetest, kindest person to work with. She even left us cake pops when we got home, which was such a thoughtful touch. We completely trusted her with our dogs and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! We will definitely have her back.
Hunter was absolutely amazing! He took great care of our two spoiled dogs and house while we were away. Our house was spotless and our pups were happy upon our return. He sent pictures and updates of our boys and was very respectful of our home. I would definitely recommend and use Huntter again in the future!
Pamela did a wonderful job taking care of our pets overnight for several days (15 year old dog, 2 year old dog, and 3 year old cat)!! We needed someone last minute over Thanksgiving and she quickly responded after our request. We scheduled a meet and greet and we knew they were in good hands. She provided pictures daily and the house looks great. We’ll definitely use Pamela again. Thanks so much for taking care of our fur babies!
Arooba came to the rescue for a last minute request. She communicated well and was responsive to our needs including rushing home when there was a small incident with a doggie door not being locked. She left the place super clean and sheets all washed. Recommend her as a great sitter.
