“Carrie was great with our mother and daughter shih-poos, including her flexibility with their special feeding requirements. The dogs loved her hour-long visits and her loving care!”
About: Hi! I’m a devoted dog mom to four amazing dogs—one who has been with me for 14 years and three proud foster “wins.” Caring for them has given me hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, medication management, fearful or anxious pups, high-energy players, and sweet couch-loving companions. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to meet them where they are—whether that means a calm, reassuring walk, energetic playtime, or extra patience and gentle care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I am shifting to part-time work and will be flexible to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m an early riser, ideal for morning walks, feedings, and medications. I offer walks, drop-ins, and longer visits, and I’m experienced with senior dogs, anxious pups, and energetic walkers. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including walks, feedings, medications, playtime, and rest. I take a calm, patient approach and adjust my care for older pets, dogs who need extra reassurance, and dogs who enjoy longer or more active walks. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.
“I'm very particular with who I leave my cats in the care of. Kelly was perfect. I will be using her service again going forward. I rarely take vacations, but knowing I have Kelly now opens the world up for travel. Daily updates, multiple daily check-ins, I swear my litter boxes were even cleaner than when I left! You rock, Kelly!”
“Lauren has watched our dog, Beth multiple times now and is always very communicative! She picks up on things going on with Beth - whether she’s hungry or needing a longer walk and responds accordingly! She has worked with our changing schedules flawlessly and is always happy to go above and beyond to make sure our dog is as happy as can be!”
About: I grew up with multiple dogs and enjoy playing with and caring for neighbors’ and friends’ dogs as needed. I don’t own a dog at present but that’s only because a couple of our cats are really particular :) I’m flexible most of the time and willing to prioritize the care of your pet and would enjoy the chance to befriend your dog or cat. I am often called a pet whisperer and am happy to spend whatever time necessary to build trust with your furry friends so that I can provide the care they need in your absence.
“I really enjoyed working with JaNiya this past week as she performed drop in visits for our cat, Mae-C. Mae-C has a new friend now and the two of them played together and enjoyed an hour long visit each day interacting with treats, games, grooming and music. JaNiya also helped with a few light chores around the house like checking the mail and watering the plants. She was also very accommodating and our cat just loves her. We have two more trips before the end of the year and we will definitely check her availability. JaNiya, we really appreciate you. Thanks so much.”
“Skylar has watched our cats multiple times and has always been very reliable, which I appreciate. She takes great care of the cats which makes me feel much better about leaving our kitties for vacations.”
“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!”
“Again Crista was doing a great job in taking care about our little cat. For good reason we are asked her now the 3rd or 4th time😉Thank you Crista, and a happy new year!”
About: I am a loving, caring, and compassionate animal lover with experience caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, and farm animals. I understand the importance of providing pets with safe , attentive, and reliable care tailored to their individual needs. Whether walking dogs, feeding and caring for household pets, or assisting with the daily needs of farm animals, I am dedicated to ensuring animals feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. My genuine passion for animals, combined with my responsible and dependable nature, makes me a trustworthy caregiver for pets of all kinds. What truly sets me apart in dog care is my ability to provide adaptable, expert attention whether I am hosting your pup at my home, walking them in your neighborhood, or dropping by for a visit. I don't just watch your dog; I seamlessly sync with their unique lifestyle and daily routine. From managing high-energy leash pullers on active walks and patiently comforting an anxious rescue to providing a secure, engaging environment with my own dogs, I bring the exact same level of total dedication to every single service. Because I am home all day and deeply experienced with canine body language, your dog always gets focused supervision, the right balance of structure and play, and absolute physical safety. I bridge the gap between fun and reliability, ensuring your furry family member is happy, tired out, and well-cared for while giving you complete peace of mind through transparent updates. When you board your pet with me, they aren’t just getting a place to sleep—they are getting a loving home away from home where their safety and happiness are the top priorities. I treat every guest like a member of my own family, offering free-roam comfort, personalized attention, and a consistent routine that minimizes any separation anxiety. Whether your pup is a high-energy player who thrives on structured exercise or a gentle soul who prefers quiet couch snuggles, I tailor my environment to fit their specific needs. You will receive frequent photo updates and clear communication throughout their entire stay, giving you complete peace of mind knowing your furry best friend is safe, pampered, and having a five-star vacation of their own. Choosing me means choosing absolute peace of mind, because I work from home and am here to provide supervised, 5-star care all day long in a structured and loving environment. Your pup will enjoy the ultimate backyard vacation in my massive, securely fenced yard, where they can burn off energy and play safely alongside my own friendly dogs for built-in companionship. I prioritize both emotional comfort and physical safety, which is why my home is fully equipped to accommodate your dog’s specific routine—including the ability to comfortably crate them for meals, bedtime, or relaxing downtime if they prefer a quiet, secure space of their own. From constant companionship to tailored safety measures, I ensure your furry family member feels completely secure, happy, and right at home throughout their entire stay.
“So reassuring to know Kelly was checking in with our cats daily. The daily updates let us relax and not wonder if they were ok. Kelly was wonderful to work with and we hope she will be available to check on the fur boys the next time we are away.”
About: As an animal lover myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets while away. I pride myself in being responsible and reliable, and I care for each animal as I would my own. Hope to meet you and your furry friend soon! Pet sitting is currently my only work obligation, but I don’t necessarily see it as work. It’s more so doing something I love while being able to make extra income while doing it. I currently do not have any pets in my home, but the two dogs I did own were both indoor dogs that I would take outside to help release energy. I show them attention and affection. I do not just feed and water them. I go beyond meeting their basic needs. I like to ensure pets get the physical and mental stimulation they need, along with a little extra love through pets.
“Jaime S did an OUTSTANDING job looking after our pups at our home! Both dogs loved her and her daughter who also came over occasionally. She took care of insulin injections needed for our dog Gemma and always kept us informed. Highly recommend her services!”
About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and other animals for 15 years. Neighbors, friends and family have chosen me to make sure their peta are well taken care of while they are away. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to play with puppies! I usually off on weekends so I'm free to check animals in the morning and walk them in the evening as well as house sit as needed. Currently we have an indoor cat that we keep safe inside. House can keep a small dog but do not currently have a yard. Animals very welcome
“It went fine. It was an initial visit to my home to see if we were a good fit. No sitting happened, since I was present, so not sure what to review? He seems nice. I heard good things from a friend who he dog sits for. She has high expectations for anyone with her dogs, so I trust he will be good to my cats.”
About: If you have been looking for the perfect place to board or train your dog, this is it! Please be aware that this is in home boarding but I do utilize 5x5 kennels for safety when dogs are not with me. They are not allowed to free roam or interact with other guests unsupervised. I have years of experience in the veterinary field, rescue, boarding, and training. Not only can I administer medications, spot early symptoms of illness, and prevent injury/sickness, but I also am very experienced in animal behavior, how the dogs mind works, and can adapt to every individual dog to make sure their stay is enjoyable. I strive to create an environment where every dog can be safe and happy and would love to do so for your pup! Please message me if you are interested in booking a stay with your dog as we fill up fast! This is what I do full time so your dogs will have my attention and time all day! We focus on quality over quantity which means that every dog has the option to be taken outside individually or with a group (pending a behavior analysis). They can get lots of play time, or lots of rest time, depending on their temperament and what helps them feel the most at ease. We have spacious suites to allow for siblings to stay together when needed and accommodate toy breeds all the way up to giant breeds. All suites include a bed, AC/heating, as many trips outside as your pup desires, and all the love they could ever want. This is what I do full time so I am with the dogs throughout the day. They are the first thing I do in the morning and last thing before bed. We have fenced play yards, indoor kennels, heating, AC, and are home all day. We strive to keep your dogs safe and happy during their stay.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Boyd Highlands
Kelly was a wonderful caregiver for my two kitties! Not only was she very conscientious about feeding and watering them as we had discussed, but she made them feel comfortable, even though she was basically a stranger to them at first. In addition, she kept in contact with me on a daily basis, and I could tell from the pictures she sent that all was well! I will certainly ask her to care for them again when my husband and I go out of town. She definitely deserves five stars!
Kayley is amazing! She has great communication, sends lots of pictures and updates, and is always so flexible with scheduling and booking. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing Desoto and Atlas are in such good hands. They absolutely love when Kayley comes to play, and it’s obvious she genuinely cares about them. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!
Madeline really saved our butts when our original planned pet sitter chose not to answer her phone the day before we were leaving town, leaving us scrambling for coverage for 11 hours in the middle of the day. Madeline did not know us and still agreed at 11:30 PM the night before our 4 AM flight. She updated us throughout the day, played with the dogs, and honestly I think they were sad when we came home. She saved us again when our last flight into Chattanooga was canceled due to weather. Despite it being a holiday, she came back to feed and walk them again without hesitation. We will absolutely be using her again and recommending her to everyone we know.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
