About: I’ve cared for dogs for several years and truly love being around them! Before moving to Chattanooga, I cared for the same family’s dog for over two years, building a strong bond with both the pup and the family. I’ve also worked as a nanny, where I was responsible not only for the children but also for their family dog—making sure they were walked, fed, and loved. I now have a puppy of my own, so I understand the daily needs, attention, and patience dogs require at every stage. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family! I work during the weekdays, but I’m fully available in the evenings and at night for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I’m also completely free on weekends. In my home, pets get a safe, clean, and cozy space with lots of love and attention. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible. If I’m in your home, I make sure your pet is comfortable and cared for while respecting your space. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages!
“Kiara was available for us when our pet sitter quit last minute. We were across the country, and Kiara help ease the stress. We were having to have a friend help but thankfully Kiara was available to take over last minute the next morning. She made sure our dogs were taken care of sent adorable photos. She was thoughtful and always considered their well being. We would definitely use Kiara again!”
About: Hugh L. III (nickname Trey) To comfort any animal brings comfort to me. I will do anything to ensure health and happiness for your pets even if it is merely sitting with them and providing company and love. I have experience with administering medication, dog walks, continuing a training regimen set by owner or introducing new behavioral solutions, caring for high anxiety animals with patience and gentleness. Also I have experience in caring for geriatric and special needs animals: diaper changing, getting pets in and out of wheelchairs, and care and cleaning for incontinence. I just moved to the area and I am between jobs, I have 4 years experience as a plumber but maybe I’ll be a career pet sitter for now. So aside from other potential clients and my own animals I will make time for your pets. I will be offering all services except for boarding in my own home because present circumstances prevent me from doing so. If I sit for you in your home I will treat it with the utmost respect and abide by any and all guidelines you provide including cleaning up after any pet incident, bathing, playtime, etc.
About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life! I’ve grown up in a house full of cats but we’ve also always made room for our dogs as well! I think I’m a great pet sitter because i’ve had plenty of experience caring for all animals alike. I’ve sat my aunts turtles and puppies, and my neighbors fish and reptiles. I can’t wait to get to know your babies! I’m currently working at a preschool part time but looking for another position. In the meantime I’d love to explore some of my other passions, one of those being pet care! right now my schedule makes me available anytime and when i do work for the school it’s from 2pm-6pm! All of your babies lives matter to me! I am fully committed to doing anything and everything I can to make sure your little one is safe and taken care of!
“Was very conscientious and provided very thoughtful and dependable service, She kept us well informed of how our pets were doing and provided extra help such as picking up our mail and cleaning up our kitties litter pans. I would recommend with no reservations.”
About: I’ve had my dog Shep for 18 years now and he’s probably almost 20 years old (and in excellent condition) I’d consider myself a dog expert and have been a dog sitter since I was a teenager. I’m currently working remotely and am able to provide pet care any time of the day or night. My schedule is very flexible and available. Having 4 dogs of my own (ages 5 to 19) I’m incredibly use to a dog’s routine and any special needs. I can easily stay with your pet in your home to keep up their normal routine.
About: I love all living beings - even bugs and reptiles I’m a bit afraid of. I will risk life and limb to ensure their safety and give them the love they so freely give us. I will do what I can to make accommodations to help care for your babies. They are family and deserve nothing but the best. They deserve to be loved unconditionally like they love us. I can accommodate at client’s homes as I have several special needs cats in my own home and I do not want to disrupt their routines or make them uncomfortable and also I do not want to make your baby uncomfortable.
“Makayla did a fantastic job. All pets and the house are good. Will certainly use Makayla the next time we travel. Thanks so much!”
About: I am an animal lover! Whether it be dogs or cats, I know they deserve the utmost care. I understand the love that animals bring into our lives, and I will do my absolute best to care for your babies! I’m currently on summer break, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your cats or dogs! I am available every day for drop in visits and dog walking. I’m also available for pet sitting at your home! I am available for that work Monday-Saturday. I currently do not offer boarding in my home. If that changes I’ll update this section! However in your home, I’ll strive to keep a calm environment with your pets. I can slowly get to know pets as need be. I also can show I’m there to care and play by playing or by tempting them with treats. 😊
“Annie is the kindest person and I had no worries while our cat was in her care! She gave daily updates as well! Would book again with her in the future.”
“Maxie takes great care of my cats while I’m away! Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been around pretty much every breed! I have grown up around dogs and taking care of them my whole life. I’ve had the opportunity to feed, bathe, walk, and just spend time with all of these wonderful pups. I currently work at a private practice as a national certified counselor, which takes some time to build a caseload. I have really been enjoying helping people with all their fur baby needs in my free time. Monday and Tuesdays my schedule changes, but I’m willing to talk about availability and you can message me for further details! I would be happy to answer any questions. I currently have a lovely “little” floof ball at home. His name is Miller and he is a Siberian husky/Lab/Pit mix. I also have a crate available for your dog if needed so you will not have to bring one, unless you feel more comfortable doing so! I also have an English Chocolate Labrador named Bailey who loves absolutely EVERYONE — she quite literally never meets a stranger.
“We love Zoey! She is a very professional animal enthusiast, and always sends us updates and pictures. We have rebooked her, will continue to work with her, and would recommend her in a heartbeat!”

About: Hello! I’m Mary, a licensed veterinary technician. I first started working with animals in highschool as a kennel technician where I quickly learned I wanted to spend my life helping them. Working as a technician has allowed me to work with animals of all temperaments, ages, and social levels! I’m a cat mom myself with two babies at home that run the house but love working with animals of all sizes! I currently work at a vet clinic in Chattanooga and have a fairly flexible schedule! I currently work full time at a vet clinic in Chattanooga with a fairly flexible schedule! I am available mostly in the morning but can adjust as necessary based on your needs! I can work in any environment with your baby! Working as a technician has allowed me to develop skills in proper medication giving and handling (oral and injectable), CPR training, and dealing with crisis situations!
About: Ever since I was a child, I've always loved animals, specifically cats. Something about them just clicked with me. My grandmother used to foster animals in Modesto, California. I helped her out frequently, by keeping the animals company and taking care of their needs. Now that she's retired, I wanna continue to be around animals as much as possible without her help. I work part time, so I have a lot of time available. My schedule is very flexible, and I work best in the afternoons and evenings. I am currently customizing my home into an environment where a cat could be comfortable. I'd say the essentials for are a happy kitty are wet food packed with protein, a clean litterbox, places to scratch, and lots of personal space. A happy dog is one that has outlets for their energy. I can stop by and feed your cat, clean it's litterbox, and play. I can also come over for a few days, making sure your feline friend is supervised while you're away. I love to play with cats, I'd never turn down a play session, and I'm also a big cuddler. What matters most to me is that your cat feels safe.
About: I have three years experience with walking and boarding dogs at a dog boarding facility. I can also give medicine and insulin shots as needed. It’s always been my dream to work with dogs/cats full time. So, my schedule is normally open! I also accept clients on most weekends as well. My number one goal is to ensure your fur baby is happy and comfortable. I will take time to get to know your dog/cat and become a welcomed face. I’m always ready for play time and giving pets :)

Tiffani m.
“Tiffani is probably the best pet sitter I've ever gotten by far. My dog Angus can be quite shy around strangers, but he opened up to her so quickly. There was absolutely no issues during my time away and she even mentioned that he started to lay and push on her which Angus rarely ever does to new people. I've had her back to watch him 5 or 6 more times since then and I have nothing but praise for the care she puts in for my furry guy. 5 stars all the way around!”
