“Amazing cat sitter! Our cat Link enjoyed her company so much; loved the photos, videos, detailed visit summaries. Terrific pet sitter, highly recommend! Very professional and organized.”
“Avery has been AWESOME!!! I have three DIFFICULT cats. One was diagnosed with FIP a month ago and he needs life-saving meds at the same time every day. On top of that, he is TERRIFIED of everyone except for me. My other two are also scaredy cats. Avery was able to work with all three cats, made sure my sick kitty got his meds every night (even though he refused to come out of hiding!!!), befriended the two shy kitties (including the spicy one!!!) Avery made sure to check in with me each day- before, during and after every visit! I am also a pet/house sitter so I'm picky and particular, especially with my own cats being SO tricky, and I'd give Avery a 10/10! Already have future petsitting dates requested! Thank you SO much, Avery!!! 🫶🏼”
“Kristin was so great with my MANY pets! She was attentive and playful which is so appreciated. She kept the house very tidy (which is challenging with so many cats!). I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
About: I provide dependable, personalized dog walking and drop-in care for pet parents who want to know their animals are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while they’re away. Whether your dog needs an engaging walk, a calm potty break, companionship, playtime, or a little extra patience, I’ll tailor each visit to their needs. I take the time to follow your instructions carefully and help your pet feel secure in their familiar environment. I have a bachelor’s degree in biology and am Pet CPR/First Aid Certified and Fear Free Certified. I understand that every animal is different, and I believe in taking the time to understand what makes each one feel comfortable and secure. You can expect reliable communication, visit updates, and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind throughout the day. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet and become someone you can confidently rely on for walks and drop-in visits. A little heads-up! My introductory rates will be available for services through October 31, 2026, with updated rates taking effect November 1. I’m currently available on weekdays and weekends, including early mornings. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate regular visits, walks, and drop-in care as needed. I care for your pets in their own homes, where they can remain comfortable and secure in a familiar environment. I follow instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, playtime, medications, and any household routines. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I let them set the pace. Some pets want lots of affection and interaction, while others need patience, quiet companionship, and space to warm up. My goal is to provide calm, dependable, and personalized care while keeping you updated with photos and visit notes for peace of mind.
“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.”
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 every single night , 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.
“Thanks Amber for an awesome experience taking care of Pumpkin Pie for us. We really appreciated all the pics and comments and we know she was well cared for while we were out of town. Thanks for including us as we know you were really busy due to the holiday. Take care.”
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!
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and I understand there needs are very different and will pay attention to the little things to make sure each animal feels comfortable.

“Was gone for 6 days and Sarah took great care of my kitties, going above and beyond. She sent lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely rebook in the future. Thank you again!”
About: I am a third year college student that grew up on a farm. We have a variety of animals including cats and dogs. I have been taking care of them my entire life. My grandmother frequently hires me to take care of her dog when she is away. I hope to explore Chattanooga while also spending time with pets. Since I am in college I cannot be at your home during class, but I have a lot of free time before and after class. Currently I have no other job so I can be very flexible. Unfortunately I cannot have pets in my apartment so I am unable to board animals. I have an active lifestyle and would be more than willing to take your pet on a walk or run. I would be able to spend the night at your home if you want me to. I love taking dogs on walks and caring for them in general. I love petting and giving attention to pets, but I can also recognize when they want to be left alone. I can bathe and clip nails of pets that are okay with it. My top priority is the safety and happiness of your pet, so I will not force them to do anything they are not comfortable with.
“Laurie is an excellent dog sitter. She is extremely dependable and fantastic with my two dogs. I never worried one time while out of town. Laurie sent pictures and kept me updated on each visit. Will definitely use Laurie’s services again.”
About: I’ve cared for pets big and small, and I always focus on giving each one the respectful, attentive, and joyful experience they deserve. I know how important our pets are to us, so I make sure to follow their cues, support their comfort, and keep things fun and positive. You can count on me to provide reliable care that makes your pet feel genuinely understood and well loved. That’s a promise! I’m a teacher with afternoons free, living by a park with a backyard. My simple, independent lifestyle allows me to give pets focused, attentive, and fun care. I provide pets a safe, comfortable space indoors with easy outdoor access for playtime. Whether it’s my home or theirs, I offer consistent, loving, and attentive care.
“Presley and I had a bit of a hiccup to start so I was unsure how things would go this first time. Well, let assure you I had no need to worry, as she has proven to be a superior pet care provider. In the many years I have been using Rover.com to identify pet sitters, I have never known anyone to write up such informative, upbeat, thorough daily reports. These missives were a delight to receive. As a result, I always felt confident my Ali was being well cared for. Thank you, Presley!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - East Ridge
Bonnie was fabulous with our cat Rory. We had a very long extended trip planned before Rory jouned our family and we were nervous leaving him. She was so sweet to play with him and keep us updated all the way. Rory has daily medication and she was 100 percent dependable. I know Rory will miss her daily visits. She is a great pet sitter!
We are so thankful to Abby for taking care of Daisy aka Kitoni. Abby was communicative and always there when she said she would be. She has helped us in the past and is a big reason we were able to take our family trip this year. Also she will spoil your pet (in a good way)!
Sarah was an amazing pet sitter! She took wonderful care of my dogs and cats and treated them like her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and reliable hands. I came home to very happy pets and would absolutely trust her to watch them again. Highly recommend!

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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
