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 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!

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 lots of experience with walking dogs, pet sitting, and doing detailed drop-ins. Ultimately, I care about the health and wellbeing of your family member because that’s exactly what they are, family. They deserve the best care possible and I am happy to provide them with the love and attention that they deserve. PET REIKI I can also offer additional reiki services for interested pet owners. This is an energy healing service that I can provide during Drop-Ins. This is great for senior dogs, pain relief, post-op healing aid recovery, or to enhance your pet’s excellent health and wellbeing. **NOTE: Book pet reiki under [bathing/grooming]. I currently have lots of free time and can do multiple drop ins a day if needed. I’m available 7 days a week and can become a consistent presence for your pup. I am extremely comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I can handle all types of temperaments and will always prioritize your dog’s safety and wellbeing before anything else.

About: I’ve worked with dogs in a professional capacity for over a decade, including managing structured environments where consistency and temperament mattered. That experience shapes how I approach in-home care today: calm, observant, and steady. I adapt well to each home’s environment. Every household has its own rhythm, and I focus on maintaining that rhythm rather than disrupting it. I respect property, keep to designated shared spaces, and treat each home responsibly while I’m there. With animals, I prioritize patience and regulation. Dogs often mirror calm, consistent energy, and I remain relaxed and steady in my interactions. Whether maintaining feeding schedules, reinforcing expectations, or adjusting to unexpected wake-ups, I approach care with composure. I value clear expectations so I can maintain healthy boundaries and provide dependable, consistent care throughout your time away. Pet care fits naturally into my week. I maintain a consistent daily routine with flexible hours, and afternoons and evenings are open most days. Feeding, walks, and check-ins happen at reliable times so pets stay comfortable and owners know what to expect. I approach every home and animal with calm professionalism and respect. I’m attentive to boundaries, cleanliness, and consistency — whether I’m providing a single visit or longer in-home care. I don’t currently have pets of my own, which allows me to focus fully on the animals in my care. My priority is reliability: safe handling, clear communication, and a steady, grounded presence.

About: Whenever I get asked if I would choose cats or dogs I always say, it depends on the personality! I love all animals and getting to know their quirks and what makes them unique! Just like their personality I understand care specific to their needs are important. I’ve grown up taking care of various neighbors’ animals and loving the experience of taking animals on walks, feedings, baths, deep clean of their home, and just simply playing with them. I start graduate school in January but am pretty flexible at the moment! Sunday through Thursday at any time as long as messaged at least the day before! I have my own little kitty named Jasper! I follow directions to a T and just love on animals. - Walks - Feedings - Scratched and pets - Play time - Mental stimulation

About: I absolutely love animals of ALL kinds. I have 30+ years of experience caring for them. I have several references of people (friends) that have relied on me to care for their animals while they were away. Please let me know if you would like to meet and schedule today. I am currently not working so I can drop in to care for your pets 1-2 times a day. I always stay and give them pets/love because they miss their parents. We live in Ringgold (NE side) on 2 acres with a 6 foot privacy fence in the back yard. We currently have two Labs: Copper Ray, Abigale DeLaney “Abbie” and two cats Cassie Marie (Bobtail), and Oliver Patrick “Ollie” (Part Maine Coon) They all love laying on the couch together while inside. When they are outside they enjoy running, playing and hunting.

About: I have owned pets my entire life. I currently have a 3 year old German Shepard named Brutus who is the apple of our eye! I believe that pets are extended family and I will treat your fur family members like my own, with love, respect, and care! I also am experienced with caring for chickens! I am a stay at home mom so I am extremely flexible! I am able to work around your needs and adjust to my own schedule! Our yard is fenced in at home and our German Shepard is crate trained and knows all basic commands, as well as a fabulous frisbee athlete! I will care for your pets at your home how you treat them so that they are familiar with routine and comfortable with me. I can do a prior meet and greet as well to make sure we are both a good fit for each other.

About: I've always had a connection with animals. I know how to give medications as needed. I've always been asked to pet sit since I was 10. I used to own my pet sitting business but life happened and COVID happened so I had to go back to work full-time. I have been wanting to pick back up pet sitting because it made me happy. I, now, do side gigs and am free most of the time. I do have my own animals so I'd like to be able to have some time with them if I stay at your place. I will follow whatever instructions you leave me. Plus, help them feel loved while you're away. There will be no worry because they will be in good care.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a baby, and currently own a pug myself! I used to volunteer as well at an animal clinic before becoming a nurse. Now I’m a SAHM to three (not fur) babies and would love to give dedicated care to yours with fur! I am a SAHM of three kiddos! One is a baby, and the others are 3 and 4. We spend lots of time out in the yard or going on walks. And if we need to travel to let your animal out, they love to go on trips! Our schedule is wide open. I have a fenced in yard and one dog that goes inside/outside. I do have children, so the dog/cat has to be kid friendly of course. Having owned the dog and cats — my kids are well trained on being gentle and kind to animals of all shapes and sizes! (And when to leave them alone, ie meal time)

“Paige did a great job taking care of our fur babies. I have always felt uncomfortable leaving them, but Paige made me feel at ease. She was very willing to come meet with me so I could let her know their preferences and show her their environment, including where they liked to hide! I would definitely be very happy to leave them in her care again.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats since I was young. Neighbors, friends, and family members have trusted me to feed, walk, and take care of their beloved pets. My own family consists of 4 dogs and a cat, which I frequently take care of for my parents or siblings. I would love to join your family’s list of reliable sitters to care for your pets well and offer them love! I am currently on summer vacation and my daily and weekly schedule is extremely flexible. I’d love to work with your family to find what routine works best for you! I want to give your pets the love, care, and attention they need! Every pet is different, and I’d love to take the time to learn your families’ routines in order to understand how to care for your pets well. I love spending quality time with pets, taking them on walks, sitting outside with them, and giving them lots of affection!

“I can’t say enough good things about Ana! Monroe is not just my dog; she’s family. She’s an older girl who needs a little extra care, and I’m very particular about who I trust with her, especially when I’m away and can’t bring her along with us like I normally do. I took a chance on Ana initially, not knowing her, but the moment we met, I had a really good feeling. She was kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring, and Monroe took to her right away. Seeing the natural connection between them immediately put me at ease. Ana has been wonderful ever since. She keeps me updated, sends photos, and makes sure Monroe is comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I also have complete peace of mind knowing that my home is in good hands while I’m away. It means so much to be able to travel and know that my girl is being cared for by someone I genuinely trust. Ana has earned that trust, and I’m so grateful we found her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with kindness and care. ❤️”

About: Hi there!! My name is Savannah and I am currently a college student. As I have moved away from home I am no longer around my two pups so this is a great way to show my love! I have taken care of numerous different sizes of dogs from various different ages. I think it’s very important for dogs to receive extra loving especially when their family is out of town! I would be sure to provide your pet with that extra care while you are gone by brushing/grooming them, taking them on walks, and making sure they have full bellies along with a treat or two! As a student I am able to pet sit / check in/ go on walks whenever needed whether that be in the early morning or afternoon to late in the evening! I am in school part time so I am only gone up to 3 hours a day. I would not be able to pet sit in my home unfortunately due to living in a studio apartment, but I would gladly come to your residence to take care of your pet!

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.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Collegedale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Collegedale is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 419 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Collegedale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 .

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.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Collegedale. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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 , 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.
