“Abi was simply just amazing! I had my German Shepherd that is scared of new people and Abi just had the gracious touch and presence that made my dog super comfortable with her. I’m beyond happy with my decision and highly recommend her to dog owners.”
“Patricia is wonderful. She is usually quickly with responses. She has been flexible with my work schedule. She has even been available on weekends. She is good with large dogs. I have been using Patricia for a few months for my 8yr female greyhound who likes to tree squirrels”
About: I have loads of experience caring for pets. I've had pets all my life, been pet sitting for friends and family for years, and even worked at a veterinary office! I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, and birds. I've raised litters of kittens and puppies as well as cared for elderly pets. I am responsible, on-time, and communicative. I am seeking furry friends to hang out with when I work from home. I work from home two days a week, and eat lunch at home every day. I know pups can get lonely during the day, just like I do with remote work, so I thought it'd be nice for us to hang out! I get an hour lunch where I could take them for walks as well. I love building relationships with pets whether it's earning a cats trust or being playful with a dog. My day job is relaxed so I have plenty of time to give them my attention.
About: My mom used to run an in home pet sitting service, and I always enjoyed helping take care of the dogs and cats. I have three shih-poos at home, and I love getting to meet all kinds of dogs. I’m a junior at UTC, and I have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I live in the area and frequently go on long walks for fun. I always make sure that an animal’s collar is properly fitted, inspect the leash for rips, and make sure to lock and shut the door securely behind me.
About: I’ve been rescuing animals since I could talk: dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, lizards, turtles, anything with a pulse lol. I am a veterinary social worker with a passion in the animal human bond. I have recently started training to be a dog trainer. I have experience working with high energy dog breeds, puppies, kittens, and senior animals. Many of the skills that I use as a therapist are transferable to training and bonding with animals. It’s so exciting to connect the information I know about humans with working with animals. I work full time as a therapist and am gone for about 3-4 hours at a time. After 3-4 hours I come home to check on all animals. Weekends I am completely open. The day typically starts around 8am in my household and schedule may vary depending on the needs of the animals in my home. I have a fenced in yard and designated dog room for crating animals while I am away. It is important to me that your animals safety is top priority, so when unsupervised they will be crated in a room designed for their comfort. I have 2 friendly pups who have been through professional training & one cat who minds his own business. I have the ability to separate your animals from other animals if needed. I can accommodate various needs.
“Heather was just wonderful. She’s caring and attentive to Bruno’s needs and updated me with photos through the 2 days. She’s also very responsive and walked him on the times we discussed. I would definitely recommend her if you’re looking for someone to walk and take care of your dog if you’re away from home.”
About: I am a third year college student that grew up on a farm. We have a variety of animals including cats and dogs. I have been taking care of them my entire life. My grandmother frequently hires me to take care of her dog when she is away. I hope to explore Chattanooga while also spending time with pets. Since I am in college I cannot be at your home during class, but I have a lot of free time before and after class. Currently I have no other job so I can be very flexible. Unfortunately I cannot have pets in my apartment so I am unable to board animals. I have an active lifestyle and would be more than willing to take your pet on a walk or run. I would be able to spend the night at your home if you want me to. I love taking dogs on walks and caring for them in general. I love petting and giving attention to pets, but I can also recognize when they want to be left alone. I can bathe and clip nails of pets that are okay with it. My top priority is the safety and happiness of your pet, so I will not force them to do anything they are not comfortable with.
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and I understand there needs are very different and will pay attention to the little things to make sure each animal feels comfortable. I currently work part time so I’m available and ready to walk, care for and play pretty much whenever needed to fit with your schedule! I walk my dogs at least once if not twice a day and also have a back yard for them to play in and run around!
About: Hi there! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and have experience with a variety of breeds and ages. I offer dog walking services in addition to pet sitting, so your pup can get the exercise they need. Currently, I have a high-energy Australian Shepherd, which has given me plenty of experience in keeping dogs entertained and happy. I have had 8 puppies in my care at a time as well if you need puppy care. I’m dedicated to providing loving and attentive care for your favorite family member. My schedule is very flexible so I am able to help at most times! I am in B2B sales and work remote. I can also run your dog if needed! I will ensure that your home is safe and left exactly the way it was upon my arrival. I understand how much trust goes into letting someone into your home.
About: My specialty is bigger dogs who like to pull. My best friend is a 110 lb wolfdog named keylo who I've had around 7 years. I walk him and our other dog 3/4 times a week. Their are several hikes around the area we go on as well. I usually work from home so I will have plenty of time for your fur babies . 5 minutes from several parks as well🐶 😊 schedule is flexible I have a huge fenced in back yard with multiple levels and lots of roaming/playing room. Im close to several parks as well as nature trails.
About: All my life, I have been around dogs. I currently have a sweet boy, Winston, who is a Pit Mix. I’ve had several different dogs over the years and have assisted family and friends with pet care. I also have previous work experience with a pet boarding and grooming facility in Baton Rouge. From having experience in a professional setting and having experience caring for pets at home, I find the at home care to be much more comfortable for the pet- which is why I decided to register here! I love making the pets and their owners feel as comfortable as possible. A personal touch- I like to take funny/cute pictures of what we do and send them to you once I’ve completed the service! I currently have two dogs that I watch for my mother. When I am in town, this looks like walks every afternoon and evening, frequent play time, and feedings. I love to make sure they are happy- whether that’s running around outside, long play time, some chill TLC, or even a few extra treats ;)
“Skylar has been a great blessing to us providing care to Honey and Lady. Easy to talk to and discuss caring plan. Lovely with pets and my dogs love her. Can't get any better in my opinion.”
About: I have always been around a lot of dogs, cats, horses, chickens you name it, growing up on a farm gave me much discipline needed for pet care. My schedule is open! I am a student at UTC and have classes during the week 9-5ish but free in evenings and on weekends. I prefer to care for pets in the clients home because I go to school away from where I live so I am mostly in Nashville.
About: Hello there! I'm thrilled to introduce myself as your go-to pet sitter and dog walker on Rover. With a heartfelt dedication to providing top-notch care, I'm here to ensure your furry loved ones are in the best hands possible. I have had pets all of my life and currently have two senior dogs(11 and 15!) whom I cherish deeply. I have a broad range of experience with different breeds, young pups to senior dogs and am well versed administering medicine. From an early age, I've also been entrusted with the care of neighbors' and friends pets, cultivating a deep-seated passion for ensuring their well-being and happiness. Whether it's tending to their needs or safeguarding their homes, I approach every task with the same level of commitment and care as if they were my own. My primary mission? To alleviate any worries you may have while you're away from your beloved companions. Your peace of mind is my priority, and I make it my personal goal to exceed your expectations every step of the way. Pets have a special way of sensing sincerity, and I can wholeheartedly say that dogs and cats often gravitate towards me. I am self employed and have a very flexible schedule. Most of my work is done from a computer allowing me the flexibility to take care of your pets on their schedule. As a stickler for following instructions, your preferences are my command. Simply let me know your pet's routines, preferences, and any special care requirements, and I'll go above and beyond to ensure their needs are met with precision and care. And because I know how much you miss your furry pals while you're away, I make it a point to provide regular photo and video updates and status reports, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.
About: I have 16 years of experience caring for pets, whether it be my own personal pets, pet sitting for others pets and working in vet clinics- Most recently in an Er vet clinic! Before I became a stay at home mom I managed the front desk of an ER vet and helping triage serious to non serious visits. I also have roughly about 1 year of vet tech experience as well! I am currently a stay at home mom so I am able to help care for your furry family members any time of the day! At this time, home visits are what I offer due to having an infant! I will be there to feed, walk, play and care for your fur baby and give companionship and a sense of comfort while you are away in your pets safe space!
“Hal took the time to really understand my dog's needs. He was always professional and very easy to work with. He sent me updates every time he walked Charleigh, and let me know when she was having an off day, which is very important to me as a senior dog owner. Charleigh also loved him!! I highly recommend Hal for taking care of your pet.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. On my 18th birthday, I got an English Bulldog, which taught me the importance of understanding breed-specific needs, health concerns, and proper care. Since then, I’ve spent countless hours researching dog behavior, nutrition, exercise requirements, and overall wellness. I have experience dog sitting and walking dogs of different sizes and personalities. Whether it’s an energetic dog that needs plenty of exercise or a senior dog that requires extra patience and attention, I take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care and give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. My schedule is very flexible this summer while I’m waiting for school to start back, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and follow the owner’s instructions closely. For boarding, I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and regular feeding schedules. While I do not have a fenced yard, I live directly across from a park and make sure dogs get plenty of safe outdoor time and activity. Pets are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family. For house sitting, I maintain the pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable while also respecting and caring for the owner’s home. During walks, I focus on safety, exercise, and making sure each dog gets the attention and activity they need. No matter the service, I treat every pet as if they were my own and make their well-being my top priority.

Sarah is the best! She takes such great care of our high-energy Malinois, and our pup is always so excited to see her! She makes sure she gets plenty of walks, gives her lots of attention, and pays great attention to detail. Sarah always keeps us updated on anything going on during her visits, and she is consistently on time and reliable. We appreciate her so much and couldn’t ask for a better person to care for our girl! Highly recommend Sarah!
Justin has been absolutely amazing with my two Labs! He is extremely reliable, responsible, energetic, and clearly takes caring for the dogs seriously. My dogs absolutely LOVE him — they are so excited when he shows up for their daily walks, and they always come home happy and well exercised. I’ve also used Justin for daycare, and the fact that he will pick up and drop off the dogs is an incredible bonus and makes everything so easy. I have complete confidence that they’re in great hands with him. I highly recommend Justin!
Leslie was an amazing pet sitter. She took excellent care of my dog as well as my friends dog who can be extremely anxious. Leslie went out of her way to make sure he felt comfortable with treats and patience. She was flexible with time changes and even came through when I had a blunder of my own and didn’t provide accurate information (sorry again Leslie!). I would recommend her to anyone as she is attentive, kind, understanding, and most importantly excellent with dogs. I will certainly be using Leslie for all of my future dog sitting/walking needs. Thanks, Leslie! Leslie was an amazing pet sitter! She took excellent care of my dog as well as my friend’s dog, who can be extremely anxious. Leslie went out of her way to make sure he felt comfortable with plenty of patience, treats, and care. She was incredibly attentive and flexible with time changes, and even came through when I had a blunder of my own and didn’t provide accurate information (sorry again, Leslie!). I would recommend Leslie to anyone looking for a sitter or walker. She is kind, attentive, understanding, and, most importantly, excellent with dogs. It was clear that she genuinely cared about making sure both dogs were happy and comfortable, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I will definitely be using Leslie for all of my future dog sitting and walking needs. Thanks again, Leslie! River and I really appreciate you!
Gillian was great! I needed a last minute walker while we were away and she was able to accommodate our schedule. She went out of her way to make sure we had time for a meet and greet beforehand. My boy Moonpie is a little skiddish of new people but she was very sweet and moved at his pace. I will absolutely use Gillian again in the future!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Chattanooga. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker.
