“Courtney did a great job with our furbabies. She was on time, responsive and our animals loved spending time with her. She left the house tidy as well which we appreciated.”

“JaNiya took amazing care of my dog Finch! I’m so grateful to her even in short notice she was able to help me out. She is very knowledgeable, communicative and easygoing. I will definitely be booking with her again.”


About: I have provided animal care services for my neighbors since I was 11. I dog/cat sit and dog walk. I have worked in animal care professionally as well as freelance! I am currently a college student on break so I have a very flexible schedule! Once I began classes again, I will work around my class schedule. I grew up with at least two dogs at all times! I love spending time with them inside or outside, playing with them or simply sitting and reading to them.
“Dana a great job taking care of our dog while we were away on vacation for a week. She came over and made sure that everyone was on the same page with expectations. She gave us regular updates with pictures on how our dog was doing. She even left a sweet note welcoming us back home and letting us know she enjoyed taking care of our dog. I look forward to booking with Dana in the future and would definitely recommend her to anyone.”
About: I have had dogs in my family since I was born and I absolutely love all dogs great and small. I have cared for dogs from puppies to seniors and even a cat (shocking I know)! I currently work from home and I am able to give great attention to your pet. If you need any urgent care, just let me know. I like to let pets warm up to me, I don’t like to try and pet them or hold them - I think it’s better to let them learn to like you. Once they’ve accepted me, I’m their best friend!

I do not double book. I offer my services in most areas of Grand Rapids and Chattanooga. I am a reliable business owner and committed to the well being of your babies My services include pet sitting, pet walking, drop in care, and most other pet care services. My previous career was a 25 year Civil Engineer, so I’m a reliable, responsible, and very trustworthy. If you’d like references, please let me know. I look forward to meeting you and your pet (s), and providing the best care for your precious fur babies. I’m partially retired and am available most days and evenings. I work for myself so I can work around your schedule. Taking care of your pets in your home is a lot more comfortable and less stressful for them than boarding.

I’m unable to give the best care in I may provide this service in the future.
“We have two small rescue dogs who are quite anxious, but Brittany has a special way of connecting with them. Her calm, loving nature has won their hearts. Finding someone who could help us with Johnny and Lizzie when we travel has been challenging, but Brittany has made all the difference. We couldn’t be more grateful!”

“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful - I think one of my cats and probably my dog was sad when we got home 🤣 she was really good with their quirks and our general absurd care instructions and she sent adorable photos showing them all having fun. It made it easier to relax on my much needed vacation knowing that my fur lovies were happy and loved! Will absolutely be using her services again!”

“Toni was absolutely fantastic to work with and did an outstanding job caring for our pets. Communication was thorough and prompt at all times. Toni continuously went above and beyond to make sure Ari & Boss (and our home!) were all exceptionally well cared for. She even navigated an off-leash dog encounter and managed to keep all pets safe, like a total pro. We have full trust in Toni after this experience and will happily book her again whenever possible! Highly recommend!!”

“Denita is amazing! She has taken care of my 5 fur-babies and they love her! She always goes above and beyond, and I can rest easy knowing they are safe and sound. Highly recommend.”

I understand how important it is to feel that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a calm and comforting presence, I aim to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m currently available Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 8PM for dog walking, drop-ins, and pet care visits.

I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions provided by owners to help pets feel secure and comfortable. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I aim to create a calm, loving, and dependable environment where pets feel cared for and safe.

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!”

“Tony was great with my 3 large dogs. Came over the night before to meet them and go over my care instructions for them. He sent me pictures and updates throughout his stay at the house. My dogs seemed to love him. Highly recommend and would definitely use again!”

“Shelby was so great. She was on time. Kept us informed about our dog through messages, pictures and video. She is very flexible. Our dog loved her. We are definitely using her again!”
“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!”

About: I’ve worked in vet clinics as a kennel tech since I was a freshman in high school. I became triple certified as a veterinarian assistant my senior year, currently I am working full time as a vet tech at a clinic in East Brainerd. In the fall, I am attending Ashworth for their veterinary technology program to obtain my licensure. I work full time Thursday-Sunday, I can come early before my shifts or after in the evening during the weekend. Weekdays are a lot more flexible if need be! I can help in any home environment you keep your pets in, with or without a fence! Working in a vet clinic has given me experience in proper medication handling (oral and injectable), grooming skills, working with animals of all temperaments, CPR training and dealing with animals in crisis. Rest assured your baby is safe with me!
Lakesite pet parents share their Rover experiences
I can’t say enough good things about Cierra! I don’t even think I can express in this review how amazing she is. She was the absolute best dog sitter we could have possibly found. From the initial meet and greet, I knew she was the one! My dog takes a while to warm up to people, that wasn’t the case with Cierra. I truly feel like she connected with my dog, and enjoyed the time with her. My dog acted as if we never left, and that is how I knew she loved Cierra. I never had to ask for an update, nor did I worry about my little girl while we were out of the country. Cierra sent plenty of updates and the cutest pictures. She took amazing care of our home, she even washed my dishes and sheets and put a clean set on for us knowing we would get home super late. I honestly feel like I’ve gained a friend!! I will book with Cierra over and over again anytime I need a sitter!!!! She is a wonderful person all around :)
