“Allie was great watching our dog overnight! She sent lots of updates, pictures and videos, and gave us a list of everything they did throughout the day! She was super flexible working with our changing schedule. We will definitely be using her services again!”

About: I’ve lived in a multi-pet household ever since I was born which has included dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and at one time, a bird, so I feel very comfortable when working with pets! I spent a bit of time volunteering at Southeastern Guide Dogs looking after puppies who were training to become certified guide dogs. As a pet owner myself I understand the importance of building trust in those who care for our furry family. I will strive to ensure that your pets are not only cared for, but feel comfortable and safe in my care! I currently have a more open availability! I am open to taking care of furry family between the hours of 8:30am-8pm most days of the week except Thursdays. I understand that with animals it is important to build trust. I prefer to go at your pet’s pace and make sure they have what they need to feel comfortable around me. Following routines that they are comfortable with is key as well as letting your pet explore what they need to (sniffing, scoping out the scene).
“I can’t thank Ryan enough for taking such good care of Blue while I was away. He kept me updated with pics and messages which was much appreciated! Ryan is also a good communicator, dependable, and follows instructions. His calm demeanor also helps keep Blue’s excitable nature in check! 😄. Blue was a happy, healthy boy when I returned. I wouldn’t hesitate to request Ryan again in the future!”


About: My preferred name is Leo. I've been caring for animals for most of my life. Growing up, I was responsible for helping care for three family dogs, including feeding, walking, playing with them, and making sure they were happy and well cared for. I also grew up around cats, as my mom had several throughout the years, so I'm very comfortable caring for cats of all ages and personalities. Today, I have a cat of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility and attention that pets need. I'm patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, companionship, or simply someone to keep them safe and comfortable while you're away, I'll treat them with the same love and care I give my own pets. My schedule is very flexible, and I'm available seven days a week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. I work on my own schedule, so I can usually accommodate last-minute bookings as well. Whether you need someone for a quick check-in, daily visits, overnight care, or extended pet sitting, I'll do my best to be there whenever you need reliable care for your pet. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I keep my home clean, organized, and pet-friendly. I currently care for my own cat, who is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and well loved. I make sure all of my houseplants are non-toxic to pets, keep anything potentially dangerous out of reach, and provide plenty of toys, enrichment, and a cat tree for play and relaxation. I'm attentive to each pet's individual needs and always make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean space, exercise, affection, and plenty of attention. I also have experience helping cats socialize through supervised playdates with friends' cats, so I understand how to create a calm, safe, and positive environment. I'll care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own.
About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats. I love taking them for walks, the park or helping them learn to swim. I know the importance of giving dogs medications and taking them to appointments. I also keep dogs well groomed while I watch them I currently work full time 5 days a week but but will spend all my free time taking care of your pets. I will check on them throughout the day during work if needed I live in an apartment that has 1 bedroom. The apartment complex does allow animals. I have ring cameras in my place and outside my place to make sure I’m always able to see if my home and the animals are safe
“Amanda was awesome to my little geriatric dogs. They are spoiled rotten and have several quirks to their care. She stayed a week in my home and very attentive to everything asked of her. Highly recommend!”

About: I have around four years of consistent experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I have an older dog of my own, so I understand senior care firsthand, including monitoring comfort, energy, and health needs. I also regularly pet-sit for families with elderly dogs, which has strengthened my ability to provide calm, attentive care. In addition, I have cared for puppies and understand the patience, structure, and supervision they require. Having experience with both puppies and senior dogs allows me to adapt easily to each dog’s unique needs and routine. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. My availability can vary by semester, but I always communicate clearly and plan ahead to ensure pets receive consistent attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I prioritize safety and trust in every home I enter. I carefully follow feeding instructions, walking routines, and medication schedules when needed. I monitor behavior closely, keep environments clean and secure, and always respect a pet’s comfort level. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including seniors, and understand the importance of calm, reliable care.
“Charish was absolutely wonderful! She communicated consistently throughout the stay and took such great care of my pup. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, loved, and well cared for while I was away. I also came home to a clean house, which was such an added bonus. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can’t recommend her enough!”

“Kiara did such an amazing job watching my pup! My pup is reactive and nervous around strangers and she followed all of my instruction on how to interact with him and everything went great!”

“Shamon did a great job watching our two dogs while we were away for a few days. She communicated well the whole time, sent tons of great pictures and left the house exactly the way it was when we left. We’re so thankful to have found her on here!”

“Michelle house sat for a week while we went on a beach vacation and was fantastic. She sent pictures and videos every day of our dachshund Banjo and checked in every night to tell me how his day went. Even our neighbors raved about how attentive she was in the backyard with Banjo always giving him pets and playing fetch. We will definitely be hiring her again!”

“Courtney took wonderful care of our aged dog and our home during our vacation. Our dog's advanced age took special care and attention, and she worked with him, convinced him to eat, adjusted his diet as needed, gave him walks in the rain, and helped him deal with our absence. Many thanks to Courtney!”

About: My name is Joe, I have just recently moved to Chattanooga from Denver, CO. I have several years of dog watching experience. Currently im working on my dog training certification and hope to offer those services soon. My partner & I have a special needs dog, and am great at providing the specialized care she needs. I have experience with all shapes and sizes of dogs, and can provide that special extra touch to ensure your pup feels at home while away. I watch dogs full time, so my routine is centered around walks, playtime, naps, ,meals, and treats. I live close to a beautiful park. Its my job to provide maximum fun times. Safety is my biggest concern when watching your dog. We introduce them to the new environment slowly in a controlled manner to allow them to be comfortable in their surroundings.
“Oh my gosh being new to the area - I was so nervous about finding someone to trust with my fur babies who are seniors with different medicines and Trey was amazing. He diligently took care of all their needs, played with them, sent photos and videos , asked all the right questions...we are so thrilled to have him!!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Cole City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cole City on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 422 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cole City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Cole City walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Cole City maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cole City choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
