House Sitting in Summer Haven

“Our dogs enjoyed LaDonna’s stay with them and so did we! She helped us greatly with dogs and house. Sent updates and photos during her stay. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home which is awesome. She went over and above what we had expected. Thank you LaDonna!”

“Highly recommend! 10/10! 5 stars. Charish was so sweet to our pugs and sent many updates. She was also so kind and a really respectful guest in our home. We can’t wait for her to care for our girls again!”

“First time having Jade as our pet/house sitter. We were very comfortable having her in our home caring for our dogs. She was very responsive any time I texted; I checked in probably twice a day. She sent many photos during the week and our pets always looked happy and well taken care of. We already have her booked for next March vacation.”

Danette M.

“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.”

Chelsea W.

“Ashelle did an amazing job with Charlie and Gracie! She followed all my requests and sent pictures or video periodically. She cared for my home and pups like I do! So appreciative that I found her on River!”

“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!”

Breonna R.

“Ryan is a fantastic dog and house sitter who loved on my dog Brady and gave him great care. He is so calm and responsible that I didn’t have a care in the world while being away for two weeks. I walked into my home just as I had left it and I think an even calmer dog than when I left him in his care. My flight was cancelled and he even stayed another night and brought him to Pet Paradise for a day of play when asked. I highly recommend Ryan as you couldn’t ask for a more helpful and knowledgeable pet sitter. Thanks Ryan for everything!!”

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.

About: I have taken care of many dogs since my early teenage years. I have had my own puppy for around 5 years, and I have potty trained her, taught her several tricks, walk, fed, and bathe her. She is my little ball of joy. I have dog sat for several family and friends and done several overnight stays with dogs. I also have two cats who I ADORE and I love being a cat mom! I am a huge pet lover and I love to fill my free time looking after dogs and cats! I work full time but love to book Rover in my schedule in the evenings and weekends because I simply love being around animals! When in my client's home, I will provide your dog and cats with much attention, walks, and treats. If dogs go outside, I will make sure to put them on a leash and keep a great watch over them as they roam around. If they need to be in a crate after I leave, I will make sure to securely put them in the crate. I won't leave the dog alone and will create trust and bond with your dog.

About: I've taken care of animals for over 5 years now. I have experience caring for senior dogs, cats, ducks, turkeys, and small puppies, and multiple animals at once. I love animals and am confident I can give them all the love and care they need while you're away! I work evenings but I can for sure be flexible and work with you to make pretty much any schedule work to care your your pets! I can only care for pets if they stay in their owners home. I do not have the means to take them into my space at this current time.

“Denita went above and beyond. She definitely maintained professionalism and the highest level of respect for our personal belongings and property. This was the first time using a service such as Rover and greatly appreciate finding an amazing sitter the first time around. We also appreciated all the photos and updates throughout the time away. You will not be disappointed!!”

“Toni was beyond good to myself, my dogs, and my house. I was super comfortable leaving my dogs in her hands and she took exceptional care of them. I came back to my home cleaner than it was. Toni is like if a guardian angle came to dog sit for you. 🤍”

“Oh my goodness! Jennifer is just a reliable rockstar and my fur baby took to her immediately!! She left my home spotless, sent me pictures etc. Highly recommend!!”

About: I’ve been a pet owner for about 7 years and have a lot of experience working with cats and dogs. I have mostly have experience with cat sitting, but have some experience with small to medium size dogs. I am comfortable with feeding routines, litter box maintenance, walking or outside time for dogs, and spending quality time with each animal I sit for. I am currently only working part time so I have flexibility to spend more time with your pets! While I am not able to stay overnight, I can make frequent visits if needed and will prioritize the time schedule set for your pets to keep them on their routine! I want to make your pets as comfortable as possible while you are away and truly believe that keeping pets in their home environment helps them adapt to temporary changes. I do my best to gain trust with new animals through slow and gentle movements and tone of voice, and I am patient in letting your pets warm up to me.

“Emilie for sure has a passion for the pets she cares for, she made sure to care for our pets like we asked and exceeded our expectations! She went above and beyond plus our pets loved her ( even the cat😲) which just shows how well she did with them! I couldn't recommended her more and we will sure be booking with her again!”

About: I have copious experience caring with animals- anything from dogs and cats to rats and hamsters! Family and friends regularly trust me to care for their pets! I am very knowledgeable on different kinds of animal care, and I am excellent at keeping pet parents updated about their animals. :) I currently work part time! I am available all day on most any day I am off, usually weekdays. I am available after 5:15pm any day I work, usually on the weekends! I will do my best to help keep them to a routine that's comfortable for them! I am happy to walk them, play with them, feed them- anything! I have experience cleaning up after animals if something were to go wrong. I try to provide dogs plenty of time outdoors, or cats lots of enrichment!

About: I’ve had animal companions my entire life. My animal companions are part of my family. They are my joy when I go home. They’re my joy when I leave the house. They’re my joy throughout the entire day when I’m with them. When I need a pet sitter for all them, I definitely need someone I can trust and rely on and know that they’re going to understand the desires and needs of each species. I am that kind of pet sitter, the kind of pet sitter I desire for my own companions. The only time I leave them is when I know they’re in really good hands. Otherwise, I won’t leave the house. I consider myself to be those really good hands that you can leave your animal companions in. I have worked at both shelters in the city, so know how to handle all types of emotional states of dogs and cats. I’m currently working at an animal emergency and specialty center where I take care of dogs and cats in the ICU. If your animal needs medical care while you’re away, I can certainly provide it. I am happy to figure out a way to get your animal friend to take their meds, but I will never stress them. I always have a stethoscope handy in case I notice something odd. I have exotics like guinea pigs, fish, snakes, and hamsters, so I’m happy to take care of your exotic animals as well. I’ve also taken care of farm animals, camels, alpaca’s and other animals of that nature if you have the need. I volunteer at the Chattanooga zoo every week. I look forward to providing you with the security you need to have a good trip and to know your animals have gold standard care. I work in Animal ICU on the weekends from 7P to 7A. I teach Astronomy at Dalton State College on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. I can fit Petsitting around any of these jobs. If I need to do an overnight, my elderly mother lives with me and can take care of my pets at the house. At my home, I have a fenced yard that allows my dogs to run at their leisure. I often leave my door back door open so they can run in and out when they want to. One of my dogs is particularly aggressive so he’s isolated from the other two dogs, but he gets out and gets to run on his own when the other two dogs are put up. Two of my dogs get to sleep with me every night. My guinea pigs have a whole room in the house to themselves, and my fish and snakes are in tanks that are out in the living room. My life is basically run by my pets, my pet schedule, feeding, cleaning and enrichment, but it’s the way I want it to be. It makes me happy to take care of them.

About: I’ve been caring for my furry family members since I was a young girl. I have trained puppies and cared for senior, ailing dogs as well. My pets have been and continue to be my family and are treated with respect and dignity and lots of love. I have clients whom I have cared for their cats and dogs and continue to have relationship and care for these animals. I am available for pet sitting for any length of time while you are away on vacation or stopping by throughout the day to feed, walk and play with your furry family member. I feed, play and talk with them, walk with them and keep them active to ensure a healthy life. I rest with them when they need it and groom them regularly- bathing them when needed, brushing them, providing oral care, and ensuring overall health with whatever supplements they need as well as visiting the vet when needed.
