About: I have 20 years of experience caring for dogs and other pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and attentive caring for your pet while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and potty routine while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’m respectful of each pet’s personality and comfort level, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for scheduled visits throughout the week and will do my best to accommodate each pet’s established routine. My calendar will always be kept updated so pet owners can confidently book the dates they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions provided by each owner. I keep pets supervised, secure doors and gates, and make sure they receive plenty of attention. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can feel reassured while you’re away.
“I recommend Stephanie to anyone needing a sitter for their furry friend or someone just to drop by and make sure they are okay! She was very understanding, knowing I had a demanding job that changed my booking time. I was very appreciative for her accommodation.”
“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 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.
About: I have always had a soft spot for animals of any kind and have been consistently watching and taking care of the pets of friends, family, and neighbors since I was 10 years old. I have special experience in the care of senior and disabled animals. I’m currently working part time, so for daytime care I will be available on week days before 9:00 am or from 4:30 pm onward. On weekends I will be available all day. I will do everything I can to ensure that your animal feels comfortable and at home, regardless of the services I am providing. I will take any instructions into careful consideration to provide the utmost sense of normalcy for your furry friends!
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals of all kinds—dogs, cats, rabbits, sheep, goats, chickens, and turkeys! Caring for pets has always been second nature to me. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I love taking the time to make each one feel safe, happy, and loved while their people are away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I plan my days around feeding, playtime, and cuddles. Most days I can check in within 6 hours, occasionally up to 8. Keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable is always my top priority. I follow each pet’s routine closely, providing feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. I keep the home safe and tidy, sending updates so owners know their pets are happy.
About: Hello, my name is Anna! I am a registered nurse in Chattanooga. With my extra time, I would love to help take care of animals in our community while their parents are away. I have worked and volunteered with animals for years. Shoot me a message and we can get to know each other! I work Monday through Friday 8am - 5pm and have free time on most Saturdays and Sunday's. During the week I could do check-ins at 6am or after 5:45 pm. I am available many weekends. Our family has loved many cats over the years, and our latest kitty required fluid injections every other day and medications and ear ointment. I am used to providing detailed care and lots of love and play too. I am very organized, and that has been useful when pet sitting.
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.
“Kathe was absolutely wonderful while caring for my cats this past week she came every day and even added extra morning visits on two occasions which I really appreciated. She made sure they were well fed, had fresh water, and kept their litter robot clean and running perfectly. Their food, water and bathroom areas were spotless. She provided daily updates with notes and multiple pictures which gave me so much reassurance while I was away. She also took the time to do a complementary meet and greet beforehand, which made me feel even more comfortable. Most importantly, my cats loved her. She gave me complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I’m truly so grateful for her care and would absolutely book with her again. I will highly recommend her to everyone that I know! 💝”
“Excellent caretaker! We appreciate Jasmine’s support for our 2 dogs this week. The pictures she sent us clearly showed how happy and comfortable they felt! I highly recommend Jasmine!”
About: I grew up with dogs and a cat, and often took neighborhood pet sitting jobs. I also worked with small animals on a local farm for several years, and currently live in a house with two dogs, who I help care for when their owners are away. Over the past six years or so, I’ve done pet and house sitting for various clients, and it’s been a fantastic experience! I look forward to meeting your pets and helping give you the time away you deserve! I work local to Chattanooga as a freelance editor and artist, so I’m able to work from anywhere! My schedule is flexible most days, so please don’t hesitate to reach out. I have plenty of experience caring for big dogs, small dogs, and cats, and am counting down the days until I’m able to have one of my own. Sadly, I’m not in a position to bring any pets home to my current residence, but that means I have lots of extra attention I can give to your pets while you’re away! Your routines and specific-to-you needs regarding your home and pets are important, and my goal is to make sure those needs are provided for. Whether you’re gone for the night on business or spending a week on vacation, don’t hesitate to reach out! I prioritize open communication, and you will receive regular updates while you’re away. Excited to hear from you!

This is the second time Kathe has pet sit for my two cats. My husband and I trust her to take excellent care of them when we are away. She gives me so much peace of mind and I know that I do not need to worry about anything. She is easy to get in touch with and sends daily updates. Kathe is very kind and dependable. I will always recommend her!
Angela was great, and took exceptional care for my kitties over the holiday. One of my cats has special needs, and she was great with him. She was on time, and always updated me regarding the visits and sent pictures. I would definitely recommend her, and will be using her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Collegedale on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
