“Charish was absolutely wonderful! She communicated consistently throughout the stay and took such great care of my pup. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, loved, and well cared for while I was away. I also came home to a clean house, which was such an added bonus. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can’t recommend her enough!”

About: Hi! I’m Keira, a 21 year old lifelong dog lover from Chattanooga (Soddy-Daisy/Lakesite area) who’s completely obsessed with giving dogs the best care possible. I had the privilege of caring for my soul dog Charley (a mini schnauzer) for almost 10 years. During that time I learned so much about loving and caring for dogs — including giving daily subcutaneous fluids when he needed them. Because of him, I’m especially gentle and patient with senior dogs, but I also adore puppies and their endless energy! I’m very loving, attentive, and flexible with scheduling. Whether you need daily walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Your fur baby will get lots of cuddles, playtime, and genuine affection while you’re away. I’d be honored to care for your dog (or cat! I’m very good with cats although I do have fewer years of experience with them!) Feel free to message me with any questions 💕 I currently work part time at a grocery store, so I have ample time to stay with and play with your pups! I usually work 3-10pm, and I have an hour break that I am able to come check on your dog. My scheduling at work is also very flexible, so if you have a dog that needs 24/7 care, that’s also not an issue for me! I can’t offer care from my home, I live with too many people and would hate to stress out your pet, but I can come and stay in your home, whether it be overnight or drop-ins. I’m very good about feeding on time, watching the water bowl, giving frequent potty breaks, and taking a few walks throughout the day. I will also adhere to any special requests you may have for your pup!
“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!”


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.
“This was my first time using an app to find someone to watch my furbaby and Dana definitely made me feel comfortable and relieved. We lucked out finding her! She’s got a calm demeanor which matched perfectly for my old girl. She sent me an update midday with a couple pictures that eased my anxiety. She was willing to work with me on the schedule when things changed on my end. And like other reviewers said she even tidied up a bit, which was completely unexpected and very kind. The best part is my pup really seemed comfortable with her from the beginning. Definitely look forward to rebooking with her in the future!”

About: I’ve owned my own Professional Pet Business for over 10 years now. I watch all types of pets and will focus all of my attention on your fur babies when they are in my care. I do not double book. I offer my services in most areas in and around Hixon, TN. 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. Pets can come home traumatized after boarding. I will make sure you come home to a very happy pet! I am sorry and don’t currently care for dogs in my home. I’m unable to give the best care in I may provide this service in the future.
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!
“LOVED having Kathryn stay with our precious pup!!! We are new to the area and haven't gone on a trip or even been away from our dog in over 2 yrs. After reading all the raving reviews about Kathryn and noticing her flexible schedule, we knew she'd be a perfect fit! She gave our dog tons of attention and took great care of her. She had such a blast with Kathryn. We look forward to using her services in the future and highly recommend her to anyone else!”

“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 :)”

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!
“We recently booked Denita to house and pet sit two of our dogs while we were away at a competition with our other dogs. We were very pleased with the whole experience. Denita came to our house to meet with us and our dogs before booking and answered any questions we had. The day before she was to start the sitting, she touched base to make sure of our timeline and that we had instructions ready. She let us know when she arrived and sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend. We were very reassured that our two girls were receiving excellent care. We will definitely book Denita again and highly recommend her.”
“Brittany is our absolute hero. She was able to watch our senior dog last minute after our other sitter couldn’t make it, and saved our whole trip. Our dog is older, blind, and needs medication so I was nervous about leaving him, but Brittany’s top notch care made me feel so at ease. She sent us daily updates and photos of our pup, kept the house clean, brought on packages, and gave us so much peace of mind. She is a shining star and took such good care of our little old pup and home. After a long day of traveling, it felt amazing to come home to a clean house and happy pup. I can’t recommend her enough and we’ll definitely be return clients.”
“i will definitely recommend and use Ryan again, he took great care of my dogs, he took detail on what their schedules and needs, my dogs where well taken care of, Ryan was a great help while i was on vacation! 5 stars!”

“Hunter was absolutely amazing! He took great care of our two spoiled dogs and house while we were away. Our house was spotless and our pups were happy upon our return. He sent pictures and updates of our boys and was very respectful of our home. I would definitely recommend and use Huntter again in the future!”

About: I love animal behavior and training. I personally trained our service dog, Crew. He goes just about everywhere with us- trails, stores, restaurants, hotels, airplanes. In my neighborhood growing up, people would call me whenever they went away and wanted animal care. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, and rabbits. I had my Siberian husky for 16 great years. I loved training her. I considered stuffing pillows with the volume of fur I brushed out of her coat! I can help with puppy and obedience training. I can help with advanced canine skills, including scent work, service work, and public access. I can administer medication. I can bathe and brush. I can play and have a great time with your pet! Something else? Just ask me! My wife and I keep a remote work situation which enables flexibility. Let me know what your specific needs are and I’ll be happy to coordinate with you. Consistency is key for animals. I aim to maintain the status quo that your pets are used to in their home. I welcome owner instructions and preferences. If crating a dog, I prefer to do so after exercise and potty.
About: I’ve cared for animals for many years and have always been someone friends, neighbors, and family can rely on to help care for their pets. 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 also have weekend availability but I’ll have to discuss it with my future clients first. I also offer overnight pet sitting in clients’ homes depending on your pet’s needs and comfort level. I enjoy building routines with pets and making sure they receive consistent care, attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I aim to be flexible, dependable, and communicative so both pets and owners feel comfortable and supported. I believe pets deserve patience, attention, and a safe, comforting environment while their owners are away. I enjoy spending quality time with animals through play, walks, cuddles, and giving them plenty of affection and companionship. 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.
“I had never left my dogs with someone who was not family, so I was very hesitant to do so but Maria was wonderful and kept me updated multiple times a day. My dogs were well taken care of and I came back to my home just as I left it.”


About: I've always been the neighbor to care for neighbors pets when they are out of town. I've owned various breeds of dogs for 42 years and cats for 40 years. I love animals! I can help with the needs of your bird as well. I love overnights. Being retired, my schedule is flexible just let me know when you need me! The schedule is flexible I try not to work with animals after 10pm I can board pets in my home or yours. Wherever the pet is more comfortable. Pets are more "relaxed" in their own homes, but mine is available.
