“We cannot say enough positive things about Wanda! She was so good with Jojo and Bella. She walked them twice a day and gave them so much love. We received pictures and texts about their day. We would highly recommend Wanda!”
“Bobi was the best sitter I’ve had in the 5 years I’ve had Honey. He was able to kindly accommodate a last minute scheduling request to stay at my house with my dog. Able to walk her daily for the long walks she requires, I came home to a happy, tired dog after 5 days of being away. That’s a first. Usually sitters can’t keep up with her physical demands. He sent me just the right amount of photos and updates. Not too much to where I would have been reminded how much I missed her, but enough to make me feel like she was getting the care and love she needs. He’s a great communicator. Most of all, his calm, kind energy is such a lovely experience for what I would suspect most animals attune to. It was clear how much she loved and appreciated him. When he came to drop off the keys, my normally very hyper dog calmly laid next to him with his hand on her back. The isn't normal for her to be quite so cuddly. Her behavior was the rave review that made my heart sing. If I need a sitter again, I will not hesitate to book Bobi. He also left the house as immaculate as it was when he got here. Thank you!!!”
“Justin was wonderful with our sweet senior girl. He came over for the meet and greet and she loved him instantly. He was prompt and sent us pictures of their time together. We will definitely request Justin again as we travel over the summer months.”
“Hope did a wonderful job as always taking care of our boy! It makes us feel so much more at ease knowing that our pup is in good hands when we are away and we can’t recommend her enough!”
“JaNiya is a phenomenal housesitter, especially if you have shy animals (but *any* animal would love her!). We have two skittish greyhounds and a very shy adopted cat. Within one day, our cat was sitting in JaNiya’s lap, and our dogs were relaxed and happy. I couldn’t believe it! She has such a calm, tender presence, and you can tell she adores animals. She’s even studying to be a veterinarian! Do not pass her up! She’s the only housesitter we’ll use from now on!”
“Carly was wonderful. She loved on my dogs during two thunderstorms, gave them medicine, and was a great communicator. When we returned our house (and dogs!) were cleaner than when we left them. Will definitely hire again!”
“Cayla was a rockstar! Three months ago, we rescued Badger, a young Red Heeler. She's very skittish around people and, while curious, won't allow people to pet her. At the time, we knew we'd be in Chattanooga for a wedding and would need to leave her for several long days. We were worried it would set back the progress we've made with her feeling comfortable around people. The opposite happened. Cayla moved at the perfect pace for Badger. She gave us some very helpful tips while we were there. If we lived in Chattanooga, we'd hire Cayla on a more regular basis. She communicated well, was on time, and I can't say enough good things about how well she cared for Badger.”
“Lauren was amazing!! The dogs loved her and so did we. She kept us informed daily. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better and more trustworthy to keep our dogs. I would definitely use her again. She is the sweetest, honest most caring dog sitter, we loved her and we would definitely recommend her to anyone else.”
“Amanda took wonderful loving care of our senior dog! She provided frequent updates which put our minds at ease. Upon return our house was in perfect condition. Will definitely reach out to her again for future sittings.”
“Eric is a great pet sitter! He stayed at our house for 4 nights/ 5 days and took really great care of my 90lb dog. He fed him per our instructions and gave him his medicine on time. Eric walked him around the neighborhood and spent quality time with my boy every day. Eric gave us the comfort and peace knowing that our dog was being taken care of. We will definitely ask Eric to pet sit for us again! Thank you Eric!”
“Alyssia, was a Blessing to me and my husband for our Beautiful Baby Girl Cinnamon. Alyssia, was very polite and respectful and highly intelligent during our meet and greet on Saturday she understood our needs and care for our Baby Girl Cinnamon. Sunday Alyssia she took great care of our Baby Girl Cinnamon she us pictures and videos and I saw the joy our Baby Girl Cinnamon was truly enjoying herself with Alyssia while my husband and I was at Church enjoying Sunday Worship Service. I Highly Recommend Alyssia to care for your fur babies she's truly a blessing.”
“Chas was the absolute best!!! She took care of four pets that all can be shy but they had no problems with warming up quickly! She gave lots of positive updates throughout our long trip and we were able to fully relax! Cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I've been caring for pets since I was a teenager. I'm now a "mom" to 1 dog and 4 cats of my own. I have worked in two different animal shelters, and have volunteered at several others. I also foster animals for McKamey when needed, when animals are too young or too sick to go to their forever homes. I love all animals, of all shapes and sizes and would love to help you take care of yours. I'm open to any and all requests. Just tell me what you or your pet need, and I'll make sure it happens. When it comes to caring for your pets, I'm your girl! I currently work part time so I'll have plenty of time to care for your furbabies. Just let me know what you need and I'm sure we can work something out. My dog is a strictly indoor dog with the exception of walks, dog park visits and potty breaks. I am perfectly comfortable walking your dogs on a leash or just playing with them in your back yard.
“JD not only took great care of my dog for 11 day he went the extra mile taking him on at least one, sometimes two walks a day. He also took great care of my home and contacted me regularly. I would give him 10 stars if I could!”
“Danielle saved me once with a list minute drop in and I was so happy with her care that I knew she was the perfect fit for my long vacation. She helped me figure out that house sitting was a better option and kept me informed all week! This was the longest I had been away from my fur baby but I was able to go about my vacation with NO WORRIES because Danielle kept me up to date and I knew he was in great hands. Will 100% book again!”
“We booked Allie for house/petsitting for a weekend and she was fantastic! She took great care of our cat and 2 dogs, sending frequent updates and great pics of all of them. We had an unfortunate dead possum situation in our back yard, and she took care of it, which was above and beyond her job description! We will absolutely book Allie again in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Gillian is our go to dog sitter. She has watched our pup twice while we were away for a week on an international trip. I would not leave my dog with anyone else!”
About: I started dog-sitting my freshman year of college, and I have continued to do so through the years. Every animal is different, and I enjoy getting to know their personalities! I worked at a doggy daycare for a while and gained a lot of animal experience there. I have looked after newborn puppies to seniors and am comfortable with medication management. If you are training your dog, I am more than happy to help by utilizing whatever commands you're working on. I take their schedules seriously and do my best to keep everything the same in your absence. I like to send photo updates, capture funny/sweet moments, and ask questions about behavior if it seems out of the norm. As of now, I am unemployed after a cross-country move back here (aka home) and am currently looking to make pet care a full-time job, so your pet will have my full attention! I care for pets based on how you care for your pets! I always let them come to me first when we meet. I make sure everything is secure before leaving and make sure to follow any and all specific instructions.
“Malinda was great with my fur kids. I really appreciated her coming by to meet my pup beforehand. As a pittie owner, I am always nervous of people’s misconceptions. Malinda treated him with such kindness, he immediately felt comfortable with her which made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care! She sent updates and photos and was quick to respond when I reached out. Would definitely use her services again and highly recommend!!”
“This is the first time Kayleen watched Harley and she was AMAZING!!!! I had zero stress and Harley immediately loved her. She even hiked with her and took her for walks. 10/10 recommend!”

East Ridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cayla stayed with my pups once again and i was able to relax and enjoy our vacation. The pups were happy as could be and the house was like I never left! And they were actually more behaved when I got home 👍🏻
Lauren was very thorough and professional in the meet and greet, communicated consistently with us while we were away, and evidently gained our pups' trust quickly as we got snuggle photos right away! She also took great care of our home. Definitely recommend!
Milo was an amazing sitter for my dog, Button! From the start, he was reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. Button warmed up to him right away-which says a lot. Milo followed all of her care instructions perfectly, kept me updated with pictures and messages, and made sure she got plenty of love and exercise. I’d absolutely trust Milo with Button again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable sitter!
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!
I can’t say enough good things about Danielle! She took such great care of our babies, kept us informed, and left our house spotless! We will book her again and again.
Lindsay did fantastic with my pups! This is the second time she has watched them and I would use her again.
Mary was great with my animals! She shared timely pup-dates and was very responsive. Will definitely book with her again in the future!
Abigayle was wonderful and kept our pup company during our first trip away from him. She sent lots of pictures to update us of their adventures along the way which helped us know he was having so much fun!
Makenzie is the most professional and easy to work with sitter I’ve experienced. Our pooch was fed in nd walked like clockwork and we received extensive pictures. Will definitely book again!
Samantha took amazing care of our 3 dogs and our home. She had great communication every step of the way. I would highly recommend her.
Katherine was great! She took great care of my dog while I was gone for a week. I would highly recommend her!
Jacquiesce was amazing! She was so communicative and sent me pictures - I booked her last minute and for a holiday and she was flexible and made me feel so comfortable that my pup was being taken care of! I will definitely be booking with her again and would highly recommend!
