Our 2 Labs Eddy and Lola stayed with Dan and his wife this week. The pups were well cared for. Our family greatly appreciates the care for them while we were gone. We received pics and updates to let us know they were enjoying themselves. 5 stars for the excellent care. Thank you! Definitely would recommend Dan to other pet owners needing pet care services. Will utilize his services in the future.

Anne went above and beyond for my GiGi! It was so nice to have peace of mind while on vacation. She kept my fur baby three nights and followed all instructions on her care. This was GiGi's first time staying with anyone away from her home and Anne was certainly the best choice. Her sweet Ethel was the perfect companion to GiGi, who doesn't like a lot of activity. We are very pleased with our Rover experience and absolutely recommend Anne to care for your pet!

First time using Rover. Felisha was the best caretaker for our pup we could’ve asked for. She was informative, caring, and generous. If you spend time in Gatlinburg area, I highly recommend!

“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Bhairoo! We received so many photos and videos that it honestly felt like he was on his own little vacation 😄 Bhairoo is usually nervous around strangers, especially men, but he got comfortable so quickly and was happily following Jonathan around asking for pets and cuddles. Seeing our gentle giant so relaxed and happy meant everything to us. Highly recommend — caring, patient, communicative, and clearly amazing with dogs!”

Elaine was great with our little goldendoodle, Daisy! She was available for a meet-and-greet before Daisy’s overnight stay, which helped us feel confident and comfortable. Elaine sent updates about how Daisy was settling in and doing, which we really appreciated. Her fenced yard was perfect for Daisy, who loves to run and play. She was also very friendly and welcoming—which helped Daisy since she was a little nervous at first. Elaine had lots of supplies on hand like bowls, toys, and crates if Daisy wanted or needed them. Communication was super easy—Elaine was quick to respond and kept us in the loop. Daisy also enjoyed having occasional playmates during her stay—it added a little extra fun to her time there. Overall, it was a great experience, and we’ll definitely book again!

About: Erica and I have always loved & had dogs in our homes ever since we were kids. They were family, & we look forward to treating yours like family too. We have a very flexible with my schedule. We enjoy playing nerf dog, frisbie and fetch with the dogs during the day, and spending restful quiet time with them during the evenings. We have a nice sized fenced in backyard for them to play in, as well as a nice indoor sunroom that I have turned into a doggy indoor play area.

Shivambika took care of my dog like her own. She sent me timely updates and kept me informed about my dog’s wellbeing. My dog was a little sad and wasn’t eating very well but Shivambika tried different things to make sure she eats well and she succeeded too. Her house is very clean and beautiful. I would definitely leave my dog there again.

This is our second time leaving our two attention loving dogs with Elaine and again we could not be happier! Elaine sent us immediate updates to let us know our boy and girl acclimated with no problems. She then continued with updates and photos to help us knowing that we missed our pups. It allowed us to really enjoy our short trip knowing that our Lynus and Gracie were getting the attention and care that they deserve. Thank you, Elaine!

Annette watched my dog Daisy for 3 days and 2 nights in her home, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Daisy has a lot of anxiety, and Annette went out of her way to make her feel safe and comfortable. She gave Daisy plenty of cuddles, took her on walks, and was very patient and caring throughout the stay. Annette also has a very sweet dog named Ethel, and Daisy really enjoyed playing with her, which helped Daisy relax and feel more at home. Annette kept me updated during the stay and sent pictures, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. It’s clear that Annette genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Amber is always wonderful to our doggies - she is a consistent communicator and she goes above and beyond with their care, even when we don't ask for it. We have a senior dog who is intermittent about her eating when she's away from home, and Amber has taken the initiative to soften her food and even hand-feeds her! Our dogs love going to Amber's and we are always at ease when they're there!

Yvonne and Bert were great with our 13 year old dog. They made sure she got her meds daily. They stayed in contact with us with pictures and text messages. They have a doggy door that I really didn’t have high hopes for our dog to use, but she did with some coaxing. I would highly recommend Yvonne and Bert. They are definitely dog people and pretty laid back.
