“Jordan is great with our two doodles! They are very reactive and she has been extremely patient and understanding. She is very punctual, communicative, and reliable. I love seeing the pictures she attaches to every walk! Highly recommend!”


“Both our dog and our cat love Laura! She takes great care with our animals and makes them feel loved and cared for. Laura put our fur babies first, and we are so appreciate. She is attentive and knowledgeable. We highly recommend Laura!”


“Joslynne was great and very attentive to our dogs. My Boston doesn't deal well with the heat and Josylnne made sure to cut the walk short in order for her to not overheat. She also offered to clean up a plant that had fallen in the house. Very sweet! We will use again!”
About: I have been around dogs all my life. All of the dogs and cats that my family and I had/have were found as strays and made part of the family. I would always help my parents take care of my neighbor’s dogs when they are away on vacation. This past fall, I dog sat and dog walked for a family before, during, and after they went on a cruise. I am good with young and old dogs, all sizes!! I grew up loving animals and have been fortunate enough to have cared for many different animals. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, fish, guinea pig, squirrels, and a few birds. In the fall of 2025, I fostered a bunny for 2 weeks and took it to adoption events. If I have the funds, I would have definitely kept it. 😂 I currently have 2 green anoles that I care for and love. Hi! I am Ami Masler. I’m from Memphis, TN and currently finishing up my undergraduate at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. I am majoring in Exercise and Health Science and hope to become an athletic trainer. Fun fact: I love playing volleyball. Like the information described under the “Pet Care Experience” prompt, I grew up with a variety of pets. Think of it like having an out-of-country farm if you will. I love being around animals, so obviously zoos and aquariums are my favorite places to visit apart from my parents’ house. Classes start up late August, so all dates up until then are open until booked. Once college classes start up again, my schedule will mostly stay the same, open. During the semester, I will have a tutoring job, but it shouldn’t have any effect on scheduling or anything like that. If there is a conflict, tutoring sessions can be moved. I always meet clients before I start any service to make sure that I am compatible with the cat or dog. After that, I make sure to follow what the client needs and wants for their pets. I give lots of attention when I’m not at work and make sure that they get all that they need.
“JaNiya was amazing with my dog, Goose! I can always tell if he’s been well taken care of by how calm he is when I return from work. She even gave some love to my cat, too!”

“Greg was amazing, very communicative, included lots of picks, and was great with my dog Chesney. She can take some time to warm up to new people, he was patient and quickly became her newest friend!”

“Jade was wonderful! She was communicative, always on time, and flexible with our change of plans. She followed all the instructions/requests we had, and even took notes at our meet & greet to ensure that she didn’t forget anything. I definitely appreciated that. Our dog is very nervous around strangers, but he loved Jade and did great with her! She even left us some homemade treats for him, which he devoured! ! I highly recommend Jade & will be using her again in the future.”

About: I am 37 and have been petsitting since I was in middle school. I have grown up with animals in my home. I also worked in a cat vet clinic when I was in college and have experience medicating and giving subQ fluids. I love walking and hiking with dogs and taking the dogs for car rides! I have also fostered cats and dogs for local rescues. I work full time Monday-Friday as a PreK teacher. My work schedule is 7:00-3:30. I am available most evenings and weekends for extra services, such as dog walking and outings. I have a fenced yard (chain link) and supervise their play. I have two friendly dogs (Husky mix and a pit bull mix) who would be around your dog or cat. My 5 cats roam the house freely. I can crate your dog(s) if needed while I am at work. If your pet stays in your home, I can offer up to 3 visits per day on weekdays, up to 4 on weekends depending on how far you are from my house. If you need care for a cat, you can choose to have them around my cats and dogs (must be up to date on vaccinations and parasite free) or I can have them in their own room.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, our home always seemed like a mini farm—we had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, and rabbits. I’ve had dogs in my life since I was about three years old and have always loved caring for and spending time with animals. My background in environmental science and conservation has also given me extensive experience working responsibly around animals and spending time outdoors. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your pup needs an energetic walk, a potty break, playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care throughout the week. I’m especially available for daytime dog walks and drop-in visits and love having an excuse to get outside and spend time with animals! I’m also available for occasional overnight stays when my schedule allows. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and will communicate clearly with owners to make sure their pets receive the care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Having grown up around many different kinds of animals, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and take time to make sure pets feel comfortable and secure. During walks, I stay attentive to my surroundings and keep pets safely leashed. In your home, I treat your space with respect and care. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Fur parents, vets, and animal welfare organizations can attest to my ability to care for any breed or size of dog. I have enjoyed caring for dogs for over 15 years now. I am dedicated to a creature's well being. I grew up with several dog breeds around me. I have taken dogs on light walks, hiking, on a beach, in the park, or I have just tossed the ball outside each day. In my childhood, I volunteered with a local zoo and taught other kids about wildlife. I also trained golden retrievers and learned from local vets. My life has always been full of creature love, dogs, cats, snakes, lizards, rabbits, birds, monkeys, tigers, and ground hogs. I truly love all animals. I work remotely and so have the flexibility to adapt my daily schedule to your fur baby’s to make every day supportive, loving, and fun! I live in a community that loves pets so there’s always a lovely outdoor spot to go on a walk in as well as health and well being resources available.
About: I have been petsitting since middle school, and I truly love animals. My clientele has expanded through word of mouth, and I have many repeat customers. I am thorough when meeting clients and asking about special instructions, medications and expectations. I take great care of client’s homes in addition to their animals and will collect mail, water plants, wash sheets and take care of dishes etc. I would never want to leave a mess for a client to return to! I have worked with senior dogs, multi pet households and young dogs alike, and I don’t discriminate with regards to breed, age or size. I can be trusted with your pets and your home, and I have many years of experience as well as close relationships with my clients. I’ve been away from Rover for a few years, but I’ve still been petsitting during that time. I’m currently taking a break from full time employment, so my schedule is open and available for pet care. I can be flexible with times etc because I don’t have another work schedule to handle. I am responsible and will make sure your pets and home are taken care of. If I’m staying in your home, I will clean dishes/sheets etc and wouldn’t leave a mess for you to come home to!
About: Hi there! I can't wait to meet your pets. I am an experienced dog owner and frequent pet sitter. With two of my own, my world revolves around dogs! I am a teacher in Hamilton County and work regularly from 8:30-3:30 during the week. During the weekends, I spend my time going on adventures or hanging in the yard with my own dogs. I will always have mornings, evenings, and holidays off to devote even more time to your pups! When pets stay in my home, I do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable. Well mannered pets will have full access to the house unless otherwise instructed by pet parents. I have crates available for pets that require. Dogs will be let out at least 5 times per day (before and after breakfast, in the afternoon, before and after dinner, and before bed). Dogs will have several opportunities to play in the yard or in the house. Feeding times for my own pets are 7:00 am and 5:00 pm. I am more than happy to adjust for your pets needs! My goal is to make you dog feel at home and at ease:) *For dog boarding needs: I can not accept any dogs that display aggressive behavior towards my dogs. Dogs must be well socialized to dogs outside of their own home. *For dog walking needs: All dogs must be well behaved on leash and have a secure collar/ harness. I am not available to walk dogs using prong, or shock collars.
About: I’ve taken care of animals most of my life. I’ve also been trained at Mckamey and know how to lovingly care for your fur baby! I’m currently working some from home but have a lot of free time :) I can come with not much notice and will love cuddle your fur friend or keep them entertained if they don’t like to be snuggled! You can trust me in or outside of your home! Your pet will be my first priority and I’m happy yo do walks and frequently take outside
“Hal took the time to really understand my dog's needs. He was always professional and very easy to work with. He sent me updates every time he walked Charleigh, and let me know when she was having an off day, which is very important to me as a senior dog owner. Charleigh also loved him!! I highly recommend Hal for taking care of your pet.”

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Hixson. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
