“Olivia was great! She kept our cat’s bowls cleaned, followed his picky feeding instructions, and was super responsive to our messages. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”


“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!”


“Will be tough to trust our boy, Sango, with anyone else! Justin is awesome — excellent communication and truly cares about Sango. It’s possible Sango enjoyed our week away from home more than we did.”


“When your neighbor texts you while you're away with a note that says "You have a really sweet pet sitter!", you know you've found a good one! Thank you for treating Izzy to the princess treatment!”


About: I grew up in the country taking care of every type of animal you could think of! But my baby was our dog! She would do everything with me to taking care of the chickens to just snuggling on my lap. I’d feed, watered and groom our pets, and taking them on walks. I would be honored to take care of your pet as you would like. Reach out if you have any questions. I am a stay at home mom full time now, so your pet would be taken out on potty breaks from being indoors and I would take them on walks in the mornings and afternoons. On the weekends I we like to go on hikes & walks and would love to take your pet with us if we are able. I would be happy crating your animal if that is needed, or they would be able to roam around our house. We don’t have a fenced back yard as of yet, but will take them out on walks and bathroom breaks several times! We have a big space that is caged that they can enjoy sometime outside.

“Terri was AMAZING. So communicative and went above and beyond. Super good with my very shy cat and extremely attentive to detail. Will rebook and absolutely recommend!!”


“This was our first time using Rover and Cheyenne made it a very positive experience! Our dogs warmed up to her quickly and enjoyed her company. She also sent adorable pictures to document their adventures!”


“Sydney relieved so much stress with me having to be gone for a week. Our dog Violet needs medication to keep her from having seizures. My husbands work schedule with driving to and from work and me gone meant Violet would miss her evening meds. We had used Rover before to housesit but did not think of it for a drop in visit before. Thank goodness we found Sydney with Rover. She was so sweet and did not mind at all to just pop in to attend to Violet before bedtime. We are definitely going to use Sydney again when the need comes up again! THANK YOU SYDNEY SO MUCH!! Sincerely, Kay, Jim and Violet Willard”


About: I love spoiling dogs of all kinds. I enjoy walking and playing with them. I have had dogs for most of my life. I can do basic manners training. I am retired pharmacist and have flexibility in scheduling. I’m available drop ins and more. Boarding is not an option as I don’t have a fenced yard. I care for dogs and cats in your home. I will walk and play to their satisfaction. I will love on them and spoil them rotten. I am observant of their moods and personality and react accordingly. I need to know the location of basic cleaning supplies in the event they’re needed.I would also like an emergency contact and veterinarian phone, hopefully never needed.

About: I was a vet tech for 6 years. I know where dogs and cats like to be scratched and I am happy to provide scratching! I recently moved here and am semi retired. I love animals but my family member's are allergic to them. Coming to your home your pets will get my full attention and be happy as my fur fix! In coming to your home I will take care of all your pets needs whether picking up poop or scooping a box, feeding, walking, playing, and brushing. Happily wearing each other out with love and attention!

About: I have house sat and pet sat for many years and I love being able to provide a safe and comfortable atmosphere for your pet. I can take your pet on walks, give lots of love and snuggles, and take care of your house as needed. No pet is too big or too small for me! I work Mon-Fri in downtown Chattanooga, but I am able to take an hour lunch break at any time to take pets on walks/feed etc. My house is pet free, and I have a fenced in back yard for your pet to run around and play in! I feel comfortable staying in your home as well and have provided that service for many years.


“My girls had a wonderful experience with Joslynne. She was excellent with communication(text and pics) and the doggos care with the drop-in visits while I was away for the day. I would highly recommend Joslynne!”


“Courtney has came by twice now to let my littles out while I'm at work. She is very communicative and punctual. She takes a lot of pictures for me so I can see that my two dogs are enjoying their break from the crate. She made sure to reach out and ask questions on the little details that I forgot to share or that I didn't even think about. She is very thorough. I am excited to find such a lovely sitter to trust my babies with.”


“Anna did a great Job taking care of our Dog while we were on vacation for the week! We appreciated the photo updates every drop in visit. I would highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be booking again!”



“Gretchen was the best sitter I have ever had on Rover! She dropped in on my high energy lab mix Finn while I was traveling for a few days. She sent great updates and is a wonderful photographer! She also was very willing to do all the funny little detailed things that Finn needs. I will definitely be using her again!!!!”

Cheryl T.
“I highly recommend Cheryl to everyone she has done an excellent job of caring for my golden retrievers. She takes them for lots of walks and plays many games of fetch with them. She treats them as if they were her own and i'm never worried when she is watching them.”


Wanda A.
“We call wanda the cat-whisperer! She visited about 6 months after we adopted/rescued our two kitties. They were still a bit skittish, but they accepted her almost immediately! After a long weekend visit, Migo and Misty were visibly more social!! She also stayed with them (and our chiweenie) for 8 days this December while we traveled. The dog was walked twice (or more) a day. The cats were brushed daily… Misty struggles with mats - she was mat free!! When we returned, all three were still expressing their comfort with her even if I was in the same room! I usually use Karl (rover.com) for the dog - he was not available for part of our December trip. Wanda was available after I made plans (did not cancel Karl as my Dixie loves his two and needs lots of attention). I look forward to Wanda helping us again in the future - I only wish she lived closer!! I highly recommend Wanda!! We have known Wanda for approximately 5 years, thru a 40+ year friend.”


Carley C.
“Carley is an incredible dog sitter. She is one of those people that can’t help but pet a dog no matter where she is. I think dogs are a really good judge of character, and they are equally as obsessed with her. She is responsible and follows all of the instructions I give her regarding feeding and walking schedules. She genuinely cares about my baby and that’s a huge relief when I can’t be there myself. Two thumbs up for Carley. You won’t regret hiring her.”


Savannah B.

“Savannah was awesome! Very communicative, punctual, and my kitties LOVED her! I am definitely planning on rebooking with her when I need the help.”
