“Michelle was great with Teddie. She did everything needed and more with Teddie, including extra playtime and interaction. I am going to be using Michelle for all my pet sitting needs!”

“Miranda is absolutely amazing and there aren't enough words to explain how much Judo and I love and appreciate her. She loves him so deeply and I know the feeling is mutual. She is so thorough, and trusting. The level of care she provides for Judo is unmatched, and I'm not sure what I would do without her. She's become part of our little family <3”

“Amber is the absolute best person to watch your puppies!! She truly loves and cares for your babies as if they’re her own!! She was always very communicative about everything that goes on with the puppies ! Our Dixie girl ended up having her puppies when we were away and amber stepped in and made sure everything was good with the puppies even when Dixie was being not so friendly. She truly made sure everything went well so we could be worry free on our vacation”

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: I’ve always grown up with pets of all kinds. My neighbors have constantly relied on me for dog and cat sitting. I’m very excited to meet your pets! I am a college student at the University of Tennessee, but I am living in Chattanooga this summer! I will be available part-time and overnight since I’m taking summer classes at UTC. I have classes on Mondays and Fridays from 9:30AM to 11:00AM, and on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 9:30AM to 2:30PM. I will still have plenty of time to spend with your pets, but just wanted to be clear about my schedule! At my house, I have a yard where my dogs can let out their energy, and also enjoy taking them on walks. I know how important it is to keep dogs on a consistent schedule. It’s also very important to me that you’re dogs are comfortable with me and their surrondings.

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 from 2:30 pm - 9 pm. On weekends I will be available all day. I have a spacious yard and house that your pets will definitely feel comfortable in. I have one friendly dog and three cats who will keep your fur baby company. If your pet doesn’t do well with others, then I can keep my animals separate from yours with no hassle.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12 years old. I have more experience with dogs but I love cats too. I have pet sitted for family and friends and consider pets to be part of the family. I will treat yours as my own. I work full time and I am currently a student as well. I am available on the weekends any time and weekday afternoons after 5pm. I have a dauchsund mix who is currently the only child. She attends daycare and although she is shy she gets along great with other dogs. We just bought our first home and do not have a fenced in yard yet. I do not feel comfortable having any pets over for pet sitting until I have a fully fenced in yard but I am happy to house sit or walk your fur baby whenever you need me.
About: I grew up with dogs, but always did the animal care for neighbors. I have given basic care to livestock (horses, cows etc.), birds, cats, and various other animals. During the summer months I'm working for fish and wildlife. Now that the season is over I am looking to make your life easier by giving the best care to your pet. Whether your leaving for work, pleasure, or family. You deserve a peace of mind that your pet will be loved and cared for. My policy is I must meet you and your pet before providing services. Everyone needs to be comfortable. Please let me know anything about the pet such as places they don't like to be pet. My cat has a routine and that's how I like to keep it. I prefer to go to clients home so their pet is more comfortable. Willing to house a small dog. I do live on the 3rd floor could be hard for an senior dog

About: I’ve been a pet owner for about 7 years and have a lot of experience working with cats and dogs. I have mostly have experience with cat sitting, but have some experience with small to medium size dogs. I am comfortable with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, walking or outside time for dogs, and spending quality time with each animal I sit for. I am currently only working part time so I have flexibility to spend more time with your pets! While I am not able to stay overnight, I can make frequent visits if needed and will prioritize the time schedule set for your pets to keep them on their routine! I want to make your pets as comfortable as possible while you are away and truly believe that keeping pets in their home environment helps them adapt to temporary changes. I do my best to gain trust with new animals through slow and gentle movements and tone of voice, and I am patient in letting your pets warm up to me.
“Very good dog sitter. Did really good with our big dogs. Very communicative and really cares about them. Very trust worthy. We did not have to worry about her during our time away from home.”

“Karie has been great this past week and I know she will continue that going forward. Since losing my wife last month, my life has been in shambles. I needed to go back to work and could not leave Maggie in the house all day, it wouldn’t be fair to her. And then I found Karie, she is doing a fantastic job making sure that my girl gets to go outside and take care of business and get some much needed exercise. I will continue to have Karie drop in to take care of my girls as long as she is available and I need the help. Hopefully Lucy will begin to come out of hiding and show herself more to Karie.”

“Bonnie was so sweet to our baby girl! She was very consistent and made sure we had plenty of photos and videos plus updates on her behavior. She definitely took a lot of the worry out of leaving our girl at home for a week!! I highly recommend 😀”

“Lauren is extremely communicative, flexible, reliable, and kind—I highly recommend her for any pet care services! I will continue booking services with her for as long as she is available. Thank you for everything Lauren!”

“She was wonderful! I accidentally locked the door with the safety lock and she was able to get through the back gate which wasn’t easy! She was reassuring that they would be cared for and it all worked out because of her willingness to find another way in after some instruction on how to do it.”
