“Jordan did a great job covering daily walks for me with my little Havanese. Emmy is very spoiled but Jordan had her behaving so well on their walks. Would definitely call on Jordan next time I travel.”
“She was right on time, enthusiastic, and truly cared for our babies. They can be difficult on walks and she handled them like a pro! The dogs loved her and we’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Gaby was very impressive! She was punctual, kind, and loved my dogs. They loved her right back! She asked a lot of questions and really cared about making sure our dogs were well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been animal sitting since I was 16 years old. I am a cat lover through and through, but I also love dog walking and playing with dogs! I am good at providing medicine for animals, and I really thrive with senior animals. I am a part time worker, so in the week day I am more free to be with your pets! I am pretty flexible as well, and I can work around your schedule. When I am in my clients home, I am very respectful of your space and only go where is necessary. I am comfortable spending the night as well as only jumping in for a little bit. I love taking dogs on trails to go for a run, and providing whatever they need!
“Susan has house/dog sat for us and has come and done walks for us. She has always been prop and easy to get in touch with. Leave lots of photos and we appreciate all the attention she gives to our pup! Would highly recommend her to friends!”
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.
“So glad to have found Meredith for help with walking Coco! Very kind and conscientious and Coco appreciated that she kept up with her fast pace as well as her need to also stop for frequent grass and mailbox sniffing.”
“Terri was such a lifesaver when I needed her to walk my dog on short notice. She was great with communication and did a meet and greet with me and my dog prior to walking her. Would recommend Terri and will use her again.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years and truly love being around them! Before moving to Chattanooga, I cared for the same family’s dog for over two years, building a strong bond with both the pup and the family. I’ve also worked as a nanny, where I was responsible not only for the children but also for their family dog—making sure they were walked, fed, and loved. I now have a puppy of my own, so I understand the daily needs, attention, and patience dogs require at every stage. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family! I work during the weekdays, but I’m fully available in the evenings and at night for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I’m also completely free on weekends. In my home, pets get a safe, clean, and cozy space with lots of love and attention. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible. If I’m in your home, I make sure your pet is comfortable and cared for while respecting your space. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages!
About: I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m patient, dependable, and pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs. Whether it’s keeping up with energetic puppies, sticking to feeding schedules, giving lots of playtime and affection, or making senior pets feel comfortable and cared for, I always try to create a safe and stress free environment for them. I also make sure owners stay updated with photos and messages so they can feel at ease while they’re away. I am available 24/7! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, feeding, and care throughout the day. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and always pay close attention to their behavior and needs. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
About: When I'm home from college, I live on a street that has lots of pets, so for the past 7ish years, my neighbors have asked me to pet sit while they have been out of town. At home, I have a senior dog and a small dog with 3 legs, so I have experience with both seniors and disabled dogs. I am a college student, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I don't have many in-person classes, so I should be available most of the time. I care for pets by taking them on walks throughout the day, ensuring they have enough water, feeding them at the appropriate times, administering their medication, and playing with them during the day.
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.
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 have grown up all my life with both cats and dogs. I absolutely love them! I have a natural talent for reading a animals needs- whether it be attention, space, love or getting to know them on their own terms. I am willing to care for senior pets. Just let me know what your pets needs are, and I am happy to work with you to make sure that they are met! I'm currently a college student at The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and I have a good deal of flexibility. All I have to work around are my classes. I'm comfortable doing whatever your instructions require to keep your pet safe, happy and comfortable. I know what it feels like to leave my pets at home in the care of someone else, and I will take care of your pets as if they are my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chattanooga
Sarah was absolutely amazing with my dog! I am VERY selective about who I trust with my sweet goose whenever I’m not around. As a rescue, she be reactive (to the strangest things) and I completely trusted that she was safe and in good hands during her walks. Communication was very thorough and I was made aware of anything that needed my attention! I received updates about how the walks went and if she used the bathroom each and every day. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for help with their pets!!
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!

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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 walker.
