“Great dog sitter! Teresa kept me updated throughout my whole weekend away. She sent pictures and took my dog on hikes. She took great care of my dog. I would highly recommend Teresa as a dog sitter and will definitely be reaching out if I need a dog sitter again. Thanks Teresa!!”

“Just moved to the area and we were nervouc leaving the dogs for the weekend so soon after moving... But we were put to ease! Communicated very well and my pups loved her! On time, responsive, and reliable. Loved all the updates she sent through the day :)”

“Jacee was an excellent sitter & kept me updated with daily photos while house sitting. My fur babies loved her & I definitely trust her to stay with them again in the future. :)”

“This was our first time using Abril and she did not disappoint. She sent us updates along with pictures and videos. Kingston was happy and his usual energetic self. Thank you Abril.”

“Lindsay was great! She cared for our pug Percy for 5 days and provided lovely updates. We had many communications before the sit and during - Lindsay is quick with texts and communicates clearly. We arrived home to a happy pup and everything in the house left clean and orderly. Big plus is she will take amazing photos of your pets! We would welcome Lindsay back any time!!”

“Very pleased with Ryan once again he took stellar care of my Furry Kids! He sent pictures of them letting me know they were comfortable with him! All around great Vibe from Ryan, Ryan checked in with me making sure my travels brought me back on time before he departed! 100% positive will continue using Ryan!”

“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: Hey! I'm Darby, I have 6 years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes including dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and small mammals. Pet sitting was the fist way I discovered I could make money when I was in middle school, and I still love it to this day! I have about 1.5 years of experience working as a trained veterinary technician. This means that I am comfortable working with special needs animals, providing special diets, and administering medication. I am also familiar working with animals that may be anxious. Right now, I'm studying animal biology at The University of Tennessee, working at an exotic animal clinic, and am starting to apply for veterinary school. Relevant Classes: Animal Anatomy and Physiology, Cellular & Molecular Biology, Small Animal Veterinary Medicine I'm currently working part-time and taking college courses online. My best availability is all-day Friday-Sunday, but I can be flexible if I have a heads up! I like to make sure I have everything I need to know from a client before they leave so I don't have to bother them too much while they're away! This includes medication, feeding schedule, behavioral problems, and any space that may be off limits to myself and/or the pet. I'm no stranger to a mess, so no worries if your pet is prone to accidents.
“Justin made it possible for my husband and I to take a quick overnight trip to ATL. He went above and beyond, truly spending time with my boys and keeping them company. I’m so grateful to have found Justin. I just booked him for the 3rd time!”

“This is our 2nd booking with Wanda, 2nd time with Rover as well. I was so hesitant to entrust our pups with a stranger but we were in a bind. I missed the review window for the 1st booking, so I just have to start there. Wanda accepted a meet and greet at a neutral location then a 2nd meet at our home. With us, the dogs, and her, all comfortable with each other, a booking was agreed upon. From that point on it's been so rewarding for not just our dogs, but for us. Wanda keeps us updated on everything, from how many walks a day, and even how many poops per walk. T.M.I. I know, but for those helicopter moms of us, she understands. Please reach out to Wanda if in need of a sitter. Oh, and did I mention, she was at the house for the entire duration of our first 5 night trip, and the 2nd, 3 day trip. Couldn't even tell she had been there but for the door camera. She even followed up after the fact, checking in on them. And could tell our babies didn't miss us as much, as when we got home, they were just like, 'What's up'... Give Wanda a try, you and your 'kids' will not be disappointed!”
About: I have owned and taken care of dogs for roughly 6 years now! Have cared for 8 newborn puppies and momma twice, watched big and small dogs, and have had my own puppy since she was 8 weeks old! I can walk, take on drives, do overnights, etc., for your doggies and care for them like my own!! I am currently working part time and looking for extra hours/money for the summer! I am available on weekends, and can drop in most weekdays roughly 3 times a day for a couple of hours! Whatever you prefer I can do my best to accommodate for!! I have a fenced in backyard, and a friendly and playful golden-doodle at home! I can crate your dog at your house, take certain precautions for cats and dogs, and allow them to warm up to me!
About: Your dog’s comfort and joy come first. I bring years of experience and a genuine love for pups to make every visit fun, safe, and worry free! As a stay at home mom, I love spending my days caring for pets, going on walks, and visiting the horse barn. Pets easily fit into my daily routine, and I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable, whether it’s in my home or yours. I follow routines, rules, provide food, water, supervision, and lots of play time. In your home I respect your space while giving updates to build trust.
“Kiara did such an amazing job watching my pup! My pup is reactive and nervous around strangers and she followed all of my instruction on how to interact with him and everything went great!”

“Jade did such a great job house sitting with Jackie and June! She provided updates and pictures while we were gone and it gave us so much peace of mind! The house was nice and tidy when we got back too! We will be using her in the future!”

“Allie was AMAZING!! We were very careful to find the best for our fur babies and so glad we met Allie. She provided a detailed report at the end of the day and sent so many pics, it was evident she loves animals and takes her work very seriously. Aloe is mature, knowledgeable, reliable, and trustworthy. She left our home in perfect condition and our pets were very happy and well taken care of while we were away. We will be having her stay with them to help us again soon!”

East Ridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Terezie is simply the best. We had a truly terrible experience with who had been watching our cats (NOT someone on Rover) and were left feeling nervous about finding someone new. The minute Terezie and I began communicating, I knew she was different. Her level of concern and care was evident in how she thoughtfully asked questions, took notes, and immediately worked to connect with each of our babies (2 cats and 1 dog) when she came to our home. We have a cat with a health mystery as of now and she was as concerned as we were and offering ideas on what we might try next with our vet. She checked in on several things while we were away just to get more clarity on what we prefer and what the babies would be more comfortable with. I dang near cried from relief with how good it felt to know Terezie was our pet caregiver. We will be requesting her FIRST any time we are away from home from now on. Thank you, Terezie! Pet parents need more people just like you!!

So grateful for Melissa jumping in last minute to help us out. Never have used Rover before so was hesitant to get a stranger to look after our pups, but Melissa was relaxed yet attentive immediately from the moment I met her. The girls weren’t anxious at all upon us getting home and that’s saying a lot. Will definitely be using Melissa again!

Rebooking was a no-brainer because he’s still the best sitter we’ve ever had. Our dogs absolutely love him — the kind of love where they barely notice we’re leaving. He kept us updated with tons of photos and videos, which we really appreciated, and took them on long walks so they could catch up on all their neighborhood “pee-mails.” Always a relief to return to happy pups, even though they’re already plotting our next trip so they can get Jadarius to come back!

Ellie watched my dog and cat for a week at my house. She did a great job! I came home to two very healthy animals. My dog is currently on medication and she was able to give it to him every morning. I was very happy with the daily updates, pictures, and videos of my pets. Lastly, she left the house in the state that she found it. You almost couldn’t tell another person stayed there for a week.

Amanda is fantastic! She sent messages and pictures everyday and we could tell our babies were well cared for and loved! We will be using Amanda every time we go out of town from this point on. Our house was spotless when we got home and she went above and beyond to take care of everything for us. We felt very at ease knowing she was here which made our vacation even more relaxing, and we are so thankful for her!

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!
