About: I’ve had animals since I was a child. Caring for pets has been a constant and there are always more pets to care for in life. I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get more active during the day or have some diversification in my day. If you’re sitting in an office chair from 8 to 5 this can really be a highlight! I am clean/ tidy and can keep to whatever schedule you have already set up for your pet. I can sleep at your home or drop in.
About: Hi! My name is Catherine, but I go by Victoria. Most people call me Victoria. I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and helping family and friends with their pets. I’m very patient, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they’re happy and comfortable. Although I’m located outside the city, I regularly travel into Chattanooga for pet sitting and walks. I’m available for pet care during the hours listed on my schedule. I’m available in the mornings and have a consistent weekly routine. On Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, I’m available from 6 AM to 11 AM. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I’m available from 6 AM to 10 AM. These are the hours I’m available to provide reliable and attentive care for pets. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own home. I follow all instructions given by the owner, including feeding, walking, medications, and routines. I treat every home with respect and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
“Nicole took exceptional care of my cat while I was away. Her communication was top-notch. She always kept me posted with timely updates and sent the best pictures. I appreciated Nicole's attention to detail, and it made me know my cat was well looked after.”
About: I am a undergrad student heading into the veterinary field. I’ve had hands on experience by shadowing previous doctors! Becoming a pet sitter has become a side job as I am studying in Boston over the summer. This way I can grow my love for animals! I have a very flexible schedule! Friday’s- Mondays are days where I’m free anytime of the day. I also enjoy walking so having your pet along brings a wonderful company. To make sure your pet is happy and safe. All time divided shall be on your pet to ensure they have the greatest quality time.
“Very good dog sitter. Did really good with our big dogs. Very communicative and really cares about them. Very trust worthy. We did not have to worry about her during our time away from home.”
“Elizabeth was so kind. Fell right into the routine, and made quick friends with my girl cat. I would definitely book with Elizabeth again!! Thank you for providing peace of mind to pet owners!!”
About: I've been around pets my whole life. When I was little, we had a mini labradoodle named Roxy and a cat named Snickers. I remember watching Cesar Millan and training Roxy to sit and to heel while walking. As I got older, we got more cats that ended up having kittens, and at one point we had 12 cats! Now, when I'm home from college, I help take care of two golden retrievers and a poodle that we have, as well as cats and chickens. I have a big heart for animals. I enjoy petting them, playing fetch with them, making sure they sleep well at night and feel loved. It would be an honor to meet you and take care of your pets! For the summer I'm currently studying for the MCAT which I take end of August. Because of that, my schedule is pretty free, and I don't have any job or school responsibilities to pull me away from giving pets the best care possible. I'm available to hang out with your pets while I'm studying, and make sure they have everything they need. Our poodle at home is getting old and has Cushing's disease, which makes her bones quite fragile. As such, I would prefer to watch your pets at your house. I'm happy to walk or play fetch with dogs, pet your animals, feed them and make sure they have water, and whatever else you do to keep them happy.
“I was traveling through and needed someone to take my dog out while I was at work. At first I couldn’t find anyone in the area that could take him out on those days and for a reasonable price. Luckily Genevieve got back with me ASAP and we were able to schedule a meet and greet as soon as possible. Her price is very reasonable, she’s polite and she was able to was able to accommodate my schedule, The only downside I’d have to say is the rover app is not the most intuitive and wasn’t able to get a lot of the messages from Genevieve and It was taking a long time to hear back from her (probably cause she wasn’t getting mine either) and it caused a lot of miscommunication. That being said If your in the area and need someone for drop in visits Genevieve would be a good fit.”
About: I have taken care of animals for years. Pet sitting for friends and family. I went to school for animal science pre-vet and also worked in multiple veterinary hospitals as an assistant. I myself own a Saint Bernard and know what it takes to single handedly take care of a large breed dog. He is socialized, docile, kind, and loves other dogs. He doesn’t have a dominant or aggressive bone in his body thanks to all of my hard work and training and love. My best friend is a local vet and will always be there if anything happens. I have also pet sat for her and she trusts me with all 8 of her animals. I spoil animals but also read them very well and gain their trust. Your animals are safe and loved with me! I am more than willing to do a meet and greet before I officially do any service. If you want me to provide doggy day care or boarding I can bring my big guy to a park and we can meet eachother or I can come over and meet your dog and you before you book me for walking or just drop ins. Whatever makes you the most comfortable with me and your precious baby! I currently work remotely part time. I can add pet sitting to my routine easily. I can attend to any needs and have free time the majority of the time. I live in an apartment and have a dog that can keep your fur baby company. He is a Saint Bernard and neutered. He is docile and doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body. A professional trainer even said he is the most happy go lucky dog he’s ever seen. Your fur baby will have a great time playing with him. He is also great with cats. He has three cat siblings. My cats are good with other cats I just ask you confirm your cats are feline leukemia negative if you want your kitty to stay here. If you want your cat to stay here but not be with the other cats I can make arrangements so they don’t interact. My apartment is a one bedroom but spacious. The complex has a dog park and plenty of places to walk and enjoy time. The dog park is usually empty so it’ll just be yours and mine fur baby. I have a large and extra large crate so you don’t need to provide one if your dog is crate trained. My car is a Chevrolet blazer and large so it can carry large breed and small breed dogs safely. The community I live in is nice and not far from multiple parks I can take your dog too as well. I am home all the time and work remotely so I can pet sit and board.
About: I grew up with dogs, but always did the animal care for neighbors. I have given basic care to livestock (horses, cows etc.), birds, cats, and various other animals. During the summer months I'm working for fish and wildlife. Now that the season is over I am looking to make your life easier by giving the best care to your pet. Whether your leaving for work, pleasure, or family. You deserve a peace of mind that your pet will be loved and cared for. My policy is I must meet you and your pet before providing services. Everyone needs to be comfortable. Please let me know anything about the pet such as places they don't like to be pet. My cat has a routine and that's how I like to keep it. I prefer to go to clients home so their pet is more comfortable. Willing to house a small dog. I do live on the 3rd floor could be hard for an senior dog
“Kristie was wonderful and very reliable! She did a great job watching our cat and giving her a pill every morning. She was very attentive, thorough, quick to respond, and provided frequent updates. I would 100% recommend her care and if I need a future sitter, I will go to Kristie. Thank you!”
“Abigail was reliable and accommodated my cat’s sporadic schedule. She spent additional time socializing with him, resulting in his being much less sour toward us when we got home. Highly recommend!”

About: I am an experienced animal owner and previous vet assistant. I have three dogs and two cats, and have experience with exotic and small/caged animals as well. I have worked with many types of special needs animals (aggressive, multiple medications, assisted walking, etc) so I am comfortable around ALL cat and dog types! I would love to just stop by or stay for extended visits. I am in the East Brainerd area but definitely willing to travel when needed. I run everyday with my dogs and could with yours too.

“We love having Jade check in on our kitty while out of town! Multiple repeat customers over here and will continue to use her in the future as long as she’s available!”
About: Your dog’s comfort and joy come first. I bring years of experience and a genuine love for pups to make every visit fun, safe, and worry free! As a stay at home mom, I love spending my days caring for pets, going on walks, and visiting the horse barn. Pets easily fit into my daily routine, and I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable, whether it’s in my home or yours. I follow routines, rules, provide food, water, supervision, and lots of play time. In your home I respect your space while giving updates to build trust.
About: Whenever I get asked if I would choose cats or dogs I always say, it depends on the personality! I love all animals and getting to know their quirks and what makes them unique! Just like their personality I understand care specific to their needs are important. I’ve grown up taking care of various neighbors’ animals and loving the experience of taking animals on walks, feedings, baths, deep clean of their home, and just simply playing with them. I start graduate school in January but am pretty flexible at the moment! Sunday through Thursday at any time as long as messaged at least the day before! I have my own little kitty named Jasper! I follow directions to a T and just love on animals. - Walks - Feedings - Scratched and pets - Play time - Mental stimulation

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Apison is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 856 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Apison. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Apison. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
