“Meridith was wonderful! My dog June can be a little shy at first but Meridith was so gentle and patient with June that she warmed up quickly! Meridith was very reliable and effective at communicating. I would definitely book her again to walk June.”
“I'm very particular with who I leave my cats in the care of. Kelly was perfect. I will be using her service again going forward. I rarely take vacations, but knowing I have Kelly now opens the world up for travel. Daily updates, multiple daily check-ins, I swear my litter boxes were even cleaner than when I left! You rock, Kelly!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for many years and am my friends and families go-to dog sitter! Since starting Rover I have had the pleasure of meeting many new friends and establishing multiple returning clients and 5 star reviews. I have experience with multiple breeds and the variety of needs that come with that. I am a dog lover through and through. I genuinely care about the well being of all pets and will make sure any pet in my care is looked after like they were my own. I am home most of the time with my daughter and 6 year old cavapoo. I can be available whenever needed. Flexible schedule, reliable and trustworthy. I have a yard with a fence and also love to take dogs on walks. My cavapoo is an inside dog but we go for at least 2-3 walks a day.
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.
“Skylar is absolutely the best! She took wonderful care of our 2 big dogs while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. She was so sweet to our pups and we hope she will be available to watch them again whenever we are out of town. Highly recommend her services!”
“Cortney was so responsive and attentive to our babies. We loved the messages after each visit as well as the adorable pictures. She was incredible, we will absolutely be using her again!”
“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.”
“Hailee is so great with our two kittles! She is communicative and responsible, and our cats always look forward to seeing her. Plus, she sends great photos and descriptions each visit. Will always trust her to take care of them while we are away!”
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 individual 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, as well as being Pet CPR/First Aid Certified and Fear Free Certified. I bring both knowledge and genuine care to every visit, with a commitment to providing thoughtful, respectful care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. You can expect reliable communication, visit updates, and photos so you can enjoy greater peace of mind throughout the day. I would 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. 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.
“Elizabeth was great! My two cats have never been more relaxed while we were gone. They seemed very content and she always sent us pictures showing both were engaged. She spent time playing with them as well, which a lot of sitters don't do. I will totally book her again.”
About: Hi there! I'm a local Respiratory Therapist, and when I'm not caring for human patients, I bring that same high standard of safety, vigilance, and dedication to caring for your pets. Working a structured hospital schedule gives me dedicated days off during the week, making me the perfect mid-day ally for your dog walks and cat drop-in visits. I own a dog and cat of my own and have been trusted for a long time to watch my friend’s pets. If you are looking for a reliable, professional sitter who treats your home with respect and provides clinical-level attentiveness to your fur family, I’d love to connect. You can always expect detailed, timely updates and peace of mind while you're away! I work a full time job at a hospital so I will open my availability around the days I work. I will scheduled my availability around my off days! Because of my medical background, I don't just "watch" pets—I actively monitor their well-being. I am deeply detail-oriented, highly observant of changes in behavior or energy levels, and completely unphased by strict routines, complex instructions, or oral medication schedules. I will make sure to respect your space and wishes for the care of your pets.
About: As an animal lover myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets while away. I pride myself in being responsible and reliable, and I care for each animal as I would my own. Hope to meet you and your furry friend soon! Pet sitting is currently my only work obligation, but I don’t necessarily see it as work. It’s more so doing something I love while being able to make extra income while doing it. I currently do not have any pets in my home, but the two dogs I did own were both indoor dogs that I would take outside to help release energy. I show them attention and affection. I do not just feed and water them. I go beyond meeting their basic needs. I like to ensure pets get the physical and mental stimulation they need, along with a little extra love through pets.
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.
About: Hi! My name is Catherine, but I go by Victoria. Most people call me Victoria. I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and helping family and friends with their pets. I’m very patient, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they’re happy and comfortable. Although I’m located outside the city, I regularly travel into Chattanooga for pet sitting and walks. I currently work a part-time job and usually have about three days off each week. I also do DoorDash, which allows me to choose my own schedule. This gives me flexibility and plenty of time to care for pets. I love animals and would be happy to help take care of yours. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own home. I follow all instructions given by the owner, including feeding, walking, medications, and routines. I treat every home with respect and always provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
About: All my life I’ve grown up taking care of animals. I currently have two cats and a family cocker spaniel that I deeply miss. RIP Samson 💔 All of my close friends are cat/dog parents so of course being the good auntie that I am have taken care of them during vacations for long at home stay’s or quick check in’s for potty and a walk. Wether it’s super puppy stage to senior dogs, I’m very familiar with all stages ♡ I’m currently working part-time so I have spare time to give extra attention to your baby! During the weekdays I’m very open, flexible for the weekends! So I won’t have any issue scheduling our time together. I have two cats. One is indoor and has supervised outside time while my other cat is an indoor/outdoor cat and spends most of his time outside. I provide lots of enrichment for my indoor while I’m away at work. Certain dogs and cats can definitely be welcomed into my home just depending on the circumstances.
“Christa is thoughtful and caring. She watched our two dogs through the Christmas holiday and they had a great time. We were delighted that Christa did a photo shoot on Christmas Eve - a great laugh - and just more evidence that she really gives 110% to the dogs in her care!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, I’ve been a pet sitter for a very long time, I love love animals. I have 5 dogs and 8 cats myself and love them all dearly. I’m currently working in the mornings and I’m off on the weekends so I have the whole afternoon/weekends to play with pups/kitties. I will always make sure the doors are locked the animals can’t make an escape when I leave, and when we go on walks I’ll make sure to keep them leashed or play in the backyard with them

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Oglethorpe
Amber came through big time!! Our original sitter had to cancel the day before our weekend trip, but luckily I found Amber! Just 2 hours later, she was able to come meet the pets and go over things at the house. During our trip she sent some great pictures, kept us updated on how everyone was doing and when medicine was given, and communicated well when she was starting and ending her visits. She made the whole experience so much less stressful, and it was clear our pets were well cared for and comfortable with her. We’re super grateful for her flexibility and help on such short notice, and we’d absolutely book with her again!

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fort Oglethorpe choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
