About: I’m an animal lover, through and through. I have two dogs of my own and often watch those belonging to family and friends. I live for seeing those smiling, fluffy faces! I’m currently looking for a summer job, and what better job than loving on and taking care of your pets? I can drop in whenever you need, just say the word! I have a fenced backyard, plenty of in-house space, and two beautiful dogs that I’m privileged to have in my family. I’ve raised the both of them from 8 weeks old to a happy and healthy 3 years and counting!
About: Whenever I get asked if I would choose cats or dogs I always say, it depends on the personality! I love all animals and getting to know their quirks and what makes them unique! Just like their personality I understand care specific to their needs are important. I’ve grown up taking care of various neighbors’ animals and loving the experience of taking animals on walks, feedings, baths, deep clean of their home, and just simply playing with them. I start graduate school in January but am pretty flexible at the moment! Sunday through Thursday at any time as long as messaged at least the day before! I have my own little kitty named Jasper! I follow directions to a T and just love on animals. - Walks - Feedings - Scratched and pets - Play time - Mental stimulation
“Maribel was amazing! She watched my two cats while we were gone for a month and left the house in great shape when we came home. I will definitely book her again for our next trip!”
About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs my whole life. Friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets when they are out of town. I’m currently working part-time from 4am-8am and I have plenty of free time to give your pet the love that they deserve when you are at work or on vacation. From my house to your house your pet will be loved and taken care of. I love hikes or just seating at home and petting your loved one.
“Accepted request last minute for the holidays, was very informative with updates and even went out of her way to assist with providing a necessity for my pup! Very pleased and will hopefully be using in the future!”
About: Specializing in pets of every age and temperament. Years of experience. Patient, kind, and loving on pets. Care, training, and medications included. Contact me today My day is spent visiting dogs, cats, and birds, giving structure, safety, play, and affection. I follow their routines, encourage good manners, and make sure each pet feels happy and secure. I spend each day spoiling dogs, cats, and birds with routines, manners, safety, playtime, and affection. Every visit becomes a joyful mix of fun, comfort, and happy and well‑cared‑for pets. At home my yard is fenced in with plenty of toys. Not mention brushes and combs for the spa part of the day.
About: I used to volunteer at a local animal shelter. I took a course on animal handling, how to decrease frustration, anxiety and stress (FAS) for animals in the shelter, body language, how emotional health impacts an animal’s physical health, etc. I have a certificate in keeping a shelter Fear Free. My family and friends have relied on me in the past to dogsit their fur-babies. I have a large extended family with pets of all kinds, from German Shepard’s, Labradors and Cocker Spaniels, to mixed breeds and Tabby cats. Five of them are shelter rescues and one chihuahua-dashscund. For all of the animals I have taken care of, I came to their home so that the animals remained comfortable. I love all of my fur-babies, and I’m thankful that my family trusts me enough to take care of them while they’re away on vacation. Important Note: If you’re wanting to do more “meet and greets” after the first one in order for your pet to get more comfortable around me, I will be charging the same price as it would be for a drop-in (about $15 depending on the pet care). Another Important Note: I can give oral medication by putting it into their food. I can not, however, give it to the pet straight. My work schedule varies every week. However, I usually work from either 8:30 AM or 10 AM to 4 or 5 PM. I wouldn’t mind discussing the details in-person. My living situation does not allow me to petsit in my own home, however, I am able to petsit in my clients’ homes. When it comes to animals, I am very responsible. I take my job as a pet-sitter very seriously. I am able to give them any medications if needed at certain days and times, walk them, feed them, etc.
“Thank you, Kirsten, for looking after my dear companion in my absence. The daily notes and images really helped me feel at ease. Kirsten is personable, competent and, above all, reliable. My kitty warmed to her immediately.”

Since then (almost 20 years), I have cared for so many wonderful animals, from my own pets to professionally caring for dogs and cats through sitting and through dog walking. I love dogs of all size, and have experience caring for dogs as small as chihuahuas and dachshunds, to large labs, retrievers, doodles, mastiffs, and pitbulls. I've cared for puppies all the way to senior pups, including sick pets who I've administered medications to and prepared specialized diets for, including my own sweet pup who fought cancer several years ago. I have also fostered dogs with medical needs who were not able do well in shelter due to their conditions. I'm totally comfortable with multi pet homes.

I generally work more in the late afternoons and evenings, and my mornings especially are often completely free. Weekends are also free with enough notice! At this time I offer pet sitting services at the pet owners home, as well as additionally offering dog walking, and/or pet care drop ins throughout the day.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Ringgold is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Ringgold choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
