“I want to thank Lauren and her family for the care she gave Gomer and her professionalism working with us. I would and will highly recommend your service and again I thank Lauren.”
“I was very impressed with how well Terry took care of Buster. You could tell she really loves animals. He loved being with her! She took him for walks and spent a lot of time with him on her back porch. She asked lots of questions to ensure Buster was getting everything he needed. She continually sent me little messages about their day and adorable photos. I will definitely use her as a sitter again. Thank you so much Terry!”
“Stephanie was AMAZING!! Whatever word is better than amazing, that’s what she is! She and her family made my furbaby feel so much at home and loved on her just as I do!! I got updates with photos and videos which is so very thoughtful. Stephanie went above and beyond keeping my Mercy longer when our flights home were canceled. Stephanie will forever be someone that I recommend to family and friends!”
“I would recommend Carrie. She was great at communicating and sharing updates about our dog,Winnie’s, visit. Carie made Winnie feel right at home from the first moment of meeting her. Winnie had a great week with Carrie!”
“Brandi was excellent and our pup loved her. She went above and beyond and sent sweet pictures of our girl running around in her fenced back yard. She is very convenient if you’re in downtown Chattanooga. I would highly recommend her.”
“I hesitate to leave a review, honestly, because I don’t want more people taking up all of Amber’s availability! She really helped me out of a jam—two jams, actually—when she accepted my last-minute booking (like, basically 24 hours notice) when my other sitter canceled for an emergency, AND she VERY generously agreed to watch my dog for an extra night when I was stuck overnight at a the airport. Amber shared daily photos and videos and other updates. She’s both proactive and quickly responsive. Will happily trust her to watch my pup anytime. But for my sake, please just…find someone else 🙏🏻”
“Wonderful experience with Tish! She took great care of our dog Zeva and provided wonderful updates while we were away. Will definitely be leaving Zeva with Tish the next time we are out of town!”
“Will & Jillian were great with Rosie and were great about sending pictures and communicating with us while we were away! We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Crista and her husband were welcoming and patient with all my questions as a new Rover customer. My dog had a great time playing with the other dogs and being outdoors in the fenced backyard. She was even allowed to sleep on a bed, just like at home. Crista sent regular updates and photos of my dog during the time away without my even asking! Drop off and pickup was easy. We will definitely want to stay with her again and highly recommend her services.”
“Jaxen was amazing! First time leaving my pup with someone other than my friends/ family and I was completely at ease. She sent daily updates and my pup was so happy when I picked her up. Will definitely be booking with her again for my next trip!”
“Nancy and Stan continue to be our go to because they’re responsive, keep us updated, and they’re so accommodating with our one high needs dog. Highly recommend!”
“Julia responded immediately to our needs and did a great job of taking care of our baby. I highly recommend her and we will be confident taking our girl back for boarding or day care.”
“Jaime was amazing!! Pictures all the time!!! The dogs had so much playtime!! They weren’t just stuffed in a kennel till we got back. 10/10 would recommend amazing experience!”
“Kristen is incredible! She was so flexible to our schedule when we needed help. She sent pictures, was genuine and so nice. Her, her husband and her fun dogs made us excited to send roux to them.”
“Angela is a supersitter! She was so kind and caring with our dogs and really went the extra mile, throwing frisbee to our Aussie and loving on our cavapoo! She is a genuine animal liver who treats your pets like her own! We will definitely rebook. Thanks, Angela!”
“Jenny was great! Rosie had the best time cuddling with her and chasing her chickens! I would highly recommend using Jenny if you are in the area. We will use her again next time we bring Rosie with us for a Clemson trip!”
“Our dog Lola had a great week with Pam!! We got updates and pictures most every day and Lola was so well cared for while we were gone. This was our first time using Rover and leaving Lola in someone else’s care other than at home with family so we were so thrilled with how well everything went. We will definitely be using Pam again! Thanks!!”
“Stephanie is the best sitter ever, I’m so thankful for her care and dedication with my very energetic puppy. Lila always enjoy to stay over there and play with her dogs and cats, it’s literally a vacation for her. Thank you so much Stephanie.”
“Loved the personal updates and photos throughout my dog’s stay. She looked so happy in the photos and was glad she had some new friends to play with. Will definitely be my go-to residence! ❤️”

“Cortney was perfect in her care for my fur baby. Being able to have two visits for my little Katya set my mind at ease as it was a longer trip than I would have normally taken. Katya got quality play time in, pets and snuggled, and fed the appropriate amount of food each day. Water and litter box were perfectly maintained. I am so happy I found Cortney and I will absolutely retain her pet sitting services in the future! Thank you, Cortney!”
“Attention to detail and great communication. This is the second time Stephanie has taken care of “the girls” . Stephanie is now my preferred care giver, peace of mind while traveling is important and Stephanie delivers that and more.”
“Perri was outstanding! I knew right away during our meet and greet that she would be awesome! Our usually-skittish kitty didn't even run away when Perri came over to meet her. She took great care of our fur baby, and sent regular photos and updates during her visits. I highly recommend her, and she will be the first one we call the next time we need a pet sitting expert!”
“We had to switch up the initial booking. Emilee was flexible and cheery about the change. She is a natural pet-person and took fun photos of Pilgrim sunning herself on the back porch (as well as the resident deer family). I believe she goes above-and-beyond with keeping Pilgrim clean and set-up with food and water, humbly so... I am very grateful for her availability and assistance with cranky cat.”
“Bonnie did a great job caring for my cat while I was away on vacation. She sent daily updates and photos and reached out with any questions she had. He was very happy and relaxed when I arrived back home. That is definitely the sign of great care.”
About: I’ve grown up my whole life around animals, we had 2 Great Pyrenees and 2 Pitbull/Mastiff Mixes. I absolutely loved caring for them and playing with them. I dog sat all throughout highschool into college and now that I’m settled down in my own house I’ve realized how much I miss it! So I’m getting started on Rover hoping I can help care for your pups when you aren’t able to while doing something I love! I have a toddler and a 1 year old Blackmouth Curr/Terrier mix named Nala. Nala is the absolute sweetest and thrives around other dogs. I do ask that for boarding that your pup is good around other dogs and children! I’m currently a stay at home mom to my toddler and my pup! So I have the free time to be able to help with yours 😊 I have a very large fenced in yard and lots of room to take dogs out for walks and to play! If I am sitting or walking at your home I always make sure to keep notes as to what rules you have or what your pups routine is.
“She was awesome! We needed someone super last minute to help check on our babies during a trip we were taking like 4 days from looking in rover. She sent us pictures and even took cute polaroids of the cats and left them for us to see. We loved having her! Thank you again!”
About: My husband and I both grew up in homes with several animals. We have been dog sitting together since we first got married. We love dogs and have our own Great Pyrenees, Anatolian shepherd, and black lab. Our children have grown up with dogs and absolutely adore them. I am a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule. I typically am only gone from the house for a couple hours at a time. We are available on most weekdays and weekends. We have multiple fenced in pastures where your dog can explore. There is plenty of fenced in areas to choose from for outdoor play. We also have a wonderful area for a walks on the bluff. I love a good running buddy. We have a small homestead with chickens sheep pigs cows and our own dog and cats.
“Journey did an amazing job taking care of our cats for a week. We got pictures every visit and came home to them being very happy and healthy. She took care of our house and grabbed our mail as well. We will definitely be using her again the next time we go out of town.”
About: I have owned pets my entire life. They are like kids to me. They are treated with respect and care equivalently so. I like pets more than humans. 😆 I own my own business and I work from home. I set my own schedule. I am very flexible. This allows me to give your pet lots of attention. I have a fenced in yard. I have a Pet door into the yard so they can come and go freely, when they have the “need”.
About: I’ve cared for cats both as a previous cat owner and while pet sitting, and I’m comfortable with cats of all personalities. I understand that some cats enjoy lots of attention while others prefer quiet companionship, and I’m happy to care for them at their own pace. I regularly farm-sit for my stepsister, where I care for both an indoor cat and an outdoor barn cat in addition to her dogs, ducks, and chickens. My responsibilities include feeding, refreshing water, scooping litter, checking on the outdoor cat, providing playtime and affection, and making sure each cat is healthy, safe, and comfortable. Caring for senior dogs, energetic young dogs, giant breed working dogs, cats, and farm animals has made me dependable, observant, and comfortable following detailed care instructions and routines. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m committed to providing loving, reliable care while you’re away.
“I requested a last minute stay from Madison and she was able to save the day and watch our house and kitty cat. She sent photo updates of my kitty and was very nice house guest. She made sure to clean our home and asked questions when necessary.”
“Kirstie is amazing! Felt very worry free while we were gone that Graves would be taken care of and happy. She took the time to really look after him for a hour a day which I know can be a lot. She even noticed my dying plant outside and watered it. I highly recommend Kirstie to look after your pets. She was thorough and communicative and will definitely hire again!”
“Hired Jamie for a week over Christmas, she was great! We got updates on how our shy cat was eating and playing everyday. Litter box was clean and there were no messes to come home too. Thank you so much Jaime!!!”
“Lauren did an EXCELLENT job with our pit. We would highly recommend her services to anyone. She took pics of each visit, arrived on time for 7 consecutive days. Great communication skills. 5 Stars from us!”
About: I’ve cared for cats of all kinds, from a Persian who needed daily grooming and lived to 18, to other playful kitties. I understand that every cat has unique needs—whether it’s extra attention, medication, or just quiet companionship. I’m patient, loving, and experienced with cats of all ages, and I’ll make sure your feline feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Dessire has been so kind and thoughtful, sending us pictures of our sweet cats. We evacuated for Hurricane Ida & we’ve been worried about what to do with our cats & she’s been amazing. Thank you!”

“WOW!!!! I was blown away by the level of care and love my dog received in Lauren's care!! The property is a dog's dream come true! It's fully fenced, and there were other friendly dogs for my dog to play with all day. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Lauren! I will most definitely take my dog back to her if I need a sitter again!”
“Stephanie, Patrick, and Colton were amazing. They were flexible with their time, SO great to chat with, and my dog loved his short visit. He’s already asking for more time with his new friends. Thank you thank you thank you!”

“Justin was great! I was in town for a day and wasn't able to come to do a meet & greet but we took some time when I got there to make sure she was settled. Nice property with plenty of space for my pup to run and get good and tired. Got lots of pictures that showed me how she was settling in with the other dogs there. It was fun seeing her run along with the big dogs! Definitely will be rebooking next time I'm in town.”
“Gaby was very flexible with my fluctuating schedule. She was also very welcoming and patient with my pup. She reported back about his day and how he behaved during day care. I highly recommend Gaby.”

“This was our first time trying Rover for day care and Beth was perfect. She had a huge fenced in yard for Myles to go out. He usually naps for 3 hours or more a day but he was having too much fun to sleep. When I picked him up, he was worn out. He went home and slept 14 hours. We will be going back to Beth.”
“Excellent.. really cares for our pup...even on rainy days she’s not afraid to take care of our 85 lb girl in the house ha. Can’t say enough good things.. . She has become a regular...”
About: Hey there! My name is Jen, and I would love to take care of your babies for you! A bit about me: I am a Licensed Veterinary Technician of 10+ years, with the majority of my experience being in surgery/anesthesia and working in emergency triage. My husband is a Veterinarian/Surgeon with 25 years under his belt this year. He does not help with care and is not responsible for my clients, but is always available for advice and input. In addition, I am a Certified Feline Behaviorist (think Jackson Galaxy!) and thoroughly enjoy working with feline behavior concerns to help keep cats in their homes. I also have experience with basic level dog training and work with a variety of local clients on basic obedience, potty training, crate training, bite inhibition for puppies, etc. in addition to professional pet sitting, boarding, daycare, and basic grooming, I am capable and available for a variety of veterinary technician services like medication/fluid administration, insulin administration, bandage changes, nail trims, etc. I also have a solid understanding of disease and parasite transmission as well as toxicity exposure/ingestion risks and act accordingly with the pets in my care. I interned for several years at Vilas Zoo in Madison, WI and for a year at Chattanooga Zoo here in TN. My husband did a residency at Montgomery Zoo in Alabama, and we met 10 years ago when we both used to own large reptile breeding businesses, primarily working with a variety of snakes. I have also spent years as a wildlife rehabber, working primarily with rabbits, squirrels, song birds, opossums, and native reptiles. Thus in addition to dogs and cats, I am well-versed in the care and biological needs of practically every species you can think of! In addition to my professional skills, education, and experience, I have immense personal experience -- essentially from the moment I was born. My mother has run a cat rescue in Wisconsin for decades, and my grandfather did the same before her. I also have been rescuing cats for the past 20 years. My parents have always kept a wide variety of pets, ranging from cats and dogs to fish, reptiles, small mammals/pocket pets, and exotics, so I have been immersed in caring for almost every kind of pet you can think of since before I can remember. I also have always had an invisible neon sign above my head that only animals can see, which has made it so that all injured, young, or lost pets and wildlife find their way to me no matter where I am or what I'm doing -- even in Army basic training when I was 20, when I rescued a 10-day-old stray kitten from drowning due to a burst pipe underneath our barracks -- so I have always had animals in my care at any given moment. In our personal lives, we have two children: my 19-year-old son and our 8-year-old daughter, both of whom have been raised in animal rescue, veterinary medicine, pet care and behavior training, etc. and have extensive skills and knowledge of their own which brings me immense pride to see. We have 4 kitties and a Boston Terrier, all of whom are very comfortable with the various visiting pet friends that stay with us. They are also spayed/neutered, UTD on vaccines, negative for all common communicable diseases, and UTD on heartworm/flea/tick prevention. My boarding pets have spaces away from our pets if necessary, so interaction is not required and separation is just fine! I have never known a life without being surrounded by animals, without my clothes being covered in fur, and without being called to help care for animals in need. It is not just what I do, but who I am, down to my very core, and brings me immense joy and gratification. I cannot begin to express how much I love what I do. I love caring for others' pets and giving them the ability to be loved and well cared for when their own loving parents cannot be with them for whatever reason. I also have frequently helped clients become aware of health concerns within their pets that they may not otherwise notice, then can have their regular DVM evaluate and address it -- ranging from skin allergies to yeast infections in ears to heart murmurs to dental disease. I feel that my career position, my education, my decades of experience, my knowledge, and my skillset, not to mention having my DVM husband handy for advice and knowledge, puts me ahead of most pet caretakers. It ensures that your babies are in the safest and most experienced, well-prepared hands they could possibly be in! I currently work remote from home as an emergency triage technician and am the Manager of Performance, Training, and Team Success for GuardianVets, so I am available 7 days per week, 24 hours per day to care for pets in my home. I also have some open availability from 8am to 10pm, so I am able to do drop-ins, potty breaks, feed, scoop litter boxes, change cages/bedding, etc. 2-3 times per day before the final visit for the evening. I can make just about any request work! Care depends on the individual pet, their breed, age, personality and needs, as well as what training and rules their parents have in place for them, and whether they are boarding in my 3600 sq. ft. home or I am caring for them in your home. Pets boarding in my home or coming for Doggy Daycare must be UTD on all core vaccines for their species with verification from their veterinarian. For puppies under 16 weeks of age, they must be UTD with the most recent booster for their age. All puppies under 16 weeks or puppies who have not yet completed all 4 vaccine boosters yet will be the ONLY boarding client I keep during their duration of stay in order to best protect their developing immune system. As you would expect, my home and all supplies (crates, bowls, etc) are thoroughly sanitized after each client. Bowls are washed in the dishwasher at over 140 degrees to sanitize, and all floors and kennels are sanitized with Kennel Care (an effective veterinary-grade disinfectant against Parvo and all other infectious agents). I do also require that all dogs boarding here or coming for Doggy Daycare are either cat-friendly or cat-neutral (meaning they ignore them). We cannot board any dogs who are cat aggressive, small dog aggressive, or obsessive cat/dog chasers, due to the risk to our pets. Even though we have a separate space for boarding dogs, the risk of injury or death is too great if they were to somehow get loose and come into contact with them. I am sorry. This specifically means dogs who have a known history of active aggression toward prey animals or an excessive interest/obsession with chasing small dogs and cats. Simply being vocal toward cats or showing interest and wanting to gently investigate is not aggression and is fine. If you aren't sure how your baby would be, you are absolutely welcome to bring them over for a trial meeting on-leash to see how they do with them first! I will always text daily updates and pics to let you know how your babies are doing and what they are up to! I am an obsessive picture taker anyway, especially with animals. :) BOARDING DOGS: I require all dogs to be crate-trained or at least comfortable being in a crate for safety reasons (i.e. if I need to leave the house for any reason, they must be able to be crated). I keep large and medium sized comfortable, secure crates with comfortable washed fresh blankets for boarding dogs, or you are welcome to bring your own! Most boarding dogs are kept in our master suite so that I can supervise them at all times. On the rare occasion where we have boarding clients from two different families, we will set the other one up in my adult son's room. They are never alone or left ignored. For outgoing dogs who adapt well to any new situation and do well with other animals, they are allowed to run around the house with us, chill on the couch, hang out on the bed and watch TV, etc, unless their parents have trained them not to be on furniture, then we uphold this same rule for them here for consistency and they are offered blankets or beds on the floor. This is always under strict supervision, no unsupervised time loose. For dogs who are more nervous/anxious in new spaces, they are crated and given 3-5 intervals of supervised 1:1 time loose in my large master suite rather than the full house, and away from the cats or our dog if they may upset them. For the most nervous babies, I usually recommend remaining crated in a larger crate so they have room to move around, as they feel most secure there, with regular potty breaks. Similar to boarding at a veterinary clinic. All boarding dogs get lots of outside play time in our yard, always on a 30-foot training leash that is attached to my hand at all times. This lets them run and play and have fun while still always being under my control and security. I do not believe in using tie-outs nor do I ever leave a dog outside alone -- whether that is a client's dog or my own. Feeding is based on their own individual preferences and requirements/instructions from their pet parents. I have all necessary bowls here, just need their food provided. BOARDING CATS: For kitties, the most outgoing, friendly, and adaptable cats are set up in our daughter's bedroom so that they have a whole room with a comfy bed and someone to sleep with at night, as well as a clean sanitized litterbox (unless they bring their own). They are also provided plenty of cat-safe toys and clean blankets to lay on. I can provide litter unless your baby has a preference for a specific type/brand, which is no issue! My daughter LOVES having boarding cats with her and will play with them with wand toys, fuzzy mice, and laser pointers for as long as they are willing, and snuggle them in bed while playing Minecraft. I take care of all the care essentials and always have hands-on time with them to ensure all is well. For the more anxious/scared kitties who prefer to hide and have less interaction, they are kept either in a large multi-level cat condo with a litterbox at the bottom, or a large wire dog crate with the litterbox on one side and a plastic step stool on the other so they can sit elevated on top or hide underneath. I set these up inside my master bedroom if I have no boarding dogs, or my daughter's room if we do. They are allowed to decompress in a quiet warm space, and I will spend lots of time petting and loving on them if they would like it, otherwise I give them their space with just periodic check-ins and caretaking (litter, food, water, etc). BOARDING EXOTICS: Species-dependent, we can discuss specifics! DOGGIE DAYCARE: Exactly the same as boarding, just for shorter periods, whether that's an hour or two while you attend a doctor appt, or 8 hours while you work! PETSITTING IN YOUR HOME: I am fully able to stay 24/7 if you prefer, or I can just stay during the day and then head home around 9pm and back again the next morning. For clients who wish me to stay 24/7 in their home, I will need access to high-speed WiFi in order to work my remote job overnight, as I work third shift. I do not have to be isolated from pets for this job, they can hang out with me. :) While I am in your home, I can sleep either on the couch or in a guest bedroom if you have one and are comfortable, either is fine with me. For couches, I will bring my own pillow and blanket. I will not do any cooking or anything that requires making a mess or cleaning up, and guarantee your home will be left in the same condition/state it was when I arrived, and will take any trash with me when I go. Your pets will sleep wherever they are used to sleeping, so if that's with a person, they are very welcome to sleep with me! I can let them out every 1-2 hours, including while working for puppies and seniors who need overnight potty breaks. DROP-IN VISITS: For pets who stay at home and have me come over for care, I usually come over 2-3x per day for potty breaks, play breaks, a walk, meal times, litter scooping, cage cleaning, etc. and overall health checks to ensure all is well. I will always treat them as if they were my own babies and ensure they get lots of love and exercise to burn off that energy during the short time we have!
About: I’m a 46year-old pet lover with no kids of my own—my heart belongs to Oly, my service-trained Aussie Doodle! Growing up with dogs has given me a lifelong love and understanding of our furry friends. As the owner of an online business, I work from home and have plenty of time for walks, cuddles, and play. Whether it’s fun adventures, learning new skills, or cozy downtime, your pup will get all the love, care, and attention they deserve while they’re with me! Oly is fully trained off leash, and gets along with dogs, cats, and kids. He comes with me to sit. I have a flexible schedule, which means I can easily adapt to your puppy’s needs throughout the day. My own dog is fully trained and comfortable around all kinds of animals, so your pup will have a calm and friendly environment to thrive in. I provide comprehensive care for my own dog by grooming and trimming his hair and nails myself, ensuring he’s always comfortable and well-maintained. I also keep up with his training regularly, which has made him a well-behaved companion who accompanies me everywhere. Since I work from home, I’m able to offer plenty of time for walks, play, cuddles, and relaxation. When caring for others’ puppies in their home, I bring the same level of attentiveness and dedication, tailoring my approach to meet each puppy’s unique needs while ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy.

“Crista did an amazing job! She was able to accommodate a last minute baby sit for my dog while I was in TN! She even helped watch her for longer because of some issues I had! I would very much recommend her! My girl was tired and slept like a baby because of all the play time she had! When I'm in TN, I will definitely book her again! ❤️❤️”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and dog trainers. I’ve had cats my entire life. I work from home and live alone with 3 rescue dogs and two rescue cats. I own two Shih Tzus and one service dog that is a Schnauzer. All of my pets are dog and cat friendly. I own my own home, extra crates of all sizes for those that need crates. I have extra fences for inside and outside the home if someone doesn’t like to mingle. My fur babies are family and I’ll treat yours the same. I work from home 100% of the time. I have breaks on the hour for potty breaks and to go walk and care for your fur babies locally. I live alone with my rescues and my fur babies are my life. I work as a Professional Counselor and have a secondary Masters in Applied Behavioral Analysis. I was raised with a professional dog trainer and have a lifetime of experience. I have a fenced yard with extra barriers to keep everyone safe. My dogs are very friendly and playful and will keep your babies entertained. All of my animals are spayed or neutered with up to date full vaccinations and monthly plans with Banfield to keep them healthy. I have experience giving meds and giving subcutaneous fluids via IV if needed. Elderly and puppies always welcome. I can assist with potty training if needed.
“I cannot express how pleased I am with Ann, Bruno, and Reagan!! I feel so lucky to have found them. My dog typically takes a little to warm up to new people, but she feels so comfortable in their home. She loves going there and I feel so at ease when I drop her off. They are extremely accommodating with my schedule, send updates throughout the day, and love my dog like she is their own!! They are so so great, but don’t book with them so their calendar stays open for us!! 😊”
“George and his family took excellent care of my dog, Fennec. I got regular updates and a couple of photos, so I never worried. My nervous boy, Fenn, settled in easily with George and the kids. I will definitely take Fenn there again. I highly recommend!”
About: Over the years I have walked dogs of all sizes and baby sat many houses for family and friends. I grow up on a farm. I have trained horses and owned pretty much every farm animal out there. I am not afraid of a challenge. I am excited to expand my services to other people. I enjoy volunteering at the local SPCA for time to time. I am CPR/First Aid Certified. I have never tried these skills on a animal and hopefully I will never have to try them out. I have worked in several daycare over the years and am currently a nanny. People trust me with their kids so I am confident in my ability to handle your pets. Pets are family as well.

“JaNiya was amazing with my dog, Goose! I can always tell if he’s been well taken care of by how calm he is when I return from work. She even gave some love to my cat, too!”
About: Hi, I'm Kirstie (pronounced "curse-tea"). I'm a huge animal lover and have taken care of my own and other people's cats and dogs since I was a child. I grew up on a farm with goats, indoor cats and barn cats, so I'm experienced with a variety of animals, including atypical ones. I'm very good with cats of all personalities especially and administering their medications. I'm trustworthy, dependable, and capable of following complex instructions. I hope you'll choose me to care for your pets. :) I'm also an artist and paint custom pet portraits, let me know if you'd like to learn more! I own my own small business and create my own schedule, which offers me lots of flexibility. I can be made available most days, please reach out for inquiries. I'm a very clean and tidy person and will be respectful of your home and leaving it the same, (or better :) ) than I found it.
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 32 years, I have worked as a kennel assistant at 17 for Lake Houston Animal Clinic and was a Kennel Manager for 4 years for Best Friends Pet Resort in Spring, Tx. I have experience and knowledge with different breeds as well as specific character traits of most breeds. I fostered with Montgomery County Animal Shelter for roughly 4 years and I'm used to administering both oral and injected medication and am familiar with many different health issues. I have been pet sitting off and on since 2005 as, I have a good client base but I'm looking to expand my business. I love dogs and cats....we speak each other's language! Its a joy to be able to care for other's furbabies while I'm out running errands, in between work schedules or even just enjoying the day. Being with the animals is a joy and not a just a job. I pet sit from the client's home so that thier furbaby can remain in the comfort of their own home while mom and/or dad are away.
About: Pets have been a part of my life since a kid. I have 3 dogs of my own so I know how busy life can get with pets. I have experience in basic care as in dog walking, feeding, medicine taking, overnight care. My schedule varies each month but I communicate it before hand to ensure consistency. I’m flexible on weekends and during the week any overnight care works for me as well. I am very active and love being outside so I can take walks with your pets or even just playing in the back yard with some toys.
About: I am 60 years old, a mother, and a grandmother. I have been caring for animals for the past 38 years. I love all dogs and animals! My dogs and my granddogs are my whole world.

“Sadie was great with Woody and Woody is not an easy dog to be great with! She is quick to respond and very communicative. I would have booked her more but she is already taken! Great dog sitter… Thank you Sadie B!”
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!
About: Dogs are life! Growing up, I have always had at least one dog that was part of the family. My love for these animals extended into college, where I began rescuing and fostering dogs with Circle of Friends Animal Society. I've been with them since 2010, and have personally rescued, trained, and adopted out 150+ dogs. Apart from my volunteer work with COFAS, I also worked for "Fetch the Leash" in Athens, GA. My time as an animal caretaker has allowed me to gain experience working with a variety of breeds and temperaments. The only thing greater than my knowledge of "mans best friend" is my PASSION for these animals. I currently have two dogs that I love dearly--I promise to love your furkids the same!
About: I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and those with special needs, including mild-moderate reactivity. I, myself have a 10-year-old pup that we adopted from a shelter in 2018. I've fostered dogs in the past for a senior rescue non-profit in Monterey, CA where I cared for and assisted in the adoption placement of 6 dogs over the course of 1 year. You can rest easy on your business trip, family vacation, or wherever you are knowing that I will treat your four-legged family member as my own. Thank you very much for considering me! I'm currently working part-time as an after-school teacher, so I'm only away for 3-4 hours a few days a week. Outside of this, my daily schedule is fairly flexible so I can work around your pets' normal schedule! I like to keep to a regular schedule with the pets I'm caring for. I've found that by doing this, they warm up to me more quickly and it helps ease any potential stress of their family being away. A typical general day would include a morning walk, afternoon park visit, hike, or other similar high energy play-time, and an evening walk. I also love to include mental stimulation throughout the day such as mini-training sessions. I will always do a consultation before care begins to ensure I have a thorough understanding of the daily needs for your pet to adjust the schedule as needed.
About: Hello, I have much experience owning/taking care of different types of animals such as house hold pets just as well as farm animals: horses, cows, pigs and chickens etc. I love and enjoy caring for all different breeds and sizes of animals.

I always make sure to give the best care and treatment to our fur babies. Keeping them on their normal routine while keeping them healthy and happy is my main priority.
About: I’ve raised my Old English Sheepdog since he was a puppy, so I know firsthand how much love and patience dogs need at every stage of life. From playful pups to dogs who need a little extra care, I’m comfortable handling it all. I’m especially experienced with big breeds and dogs with allergies, so I’m used to giving meds, keeping routines, and making sure pups feel happy and safe. I’ll treat your dog like family and give them the same love and attention I give my own. I’m currently a student and have a part time job but I’m looking for something with more flexibility and that keeps me more active too. I can care for your pet in your home and area. I can provide walks, playtime, and attention while your pet stays in a familiar, comfortable environment. I focus on keeping routines consistent, giving lots of love and attention, and making sure your furry friend feels safe and happy while you’re away.

About: Over the years I have walked dogs of all sizes and baby sat many houses for family and friends. I grow up on a farm. I have trained horses and owned pretty much every farm animal out there. I am not afraid of a challenge. I am excited to expand my services to other people. I enjoy volunteering at the local SPCA for time to time. I am CPR/First Aid Certified. I have never tried these skills on a animal and hopefully I will never have to try them out. I have worked in several daycare over the years and am currently a nanny. People trust me with their kids so I am confident in my ability to handle your pets. Pets are family as well.

“I want to thank Lauren and her family for the care she gave Gomer and her professionalism working with us. I would and will highly recommend your service and again I thank Lauren.”
“I was very impressed with how well Terry took care of Buster. You could tell she really loves animals. He loved being with her! She took him for walks and spent a lot of time with him on her back porch. She asked lots of questions to ensure Buster was getting everything he needed. She continually sent me little messages about their day and adorable photos. I will definitely use her as a sitter again. Thank you so much Terry!”
“Stephanie was AMAZING!! Whatever word is better than amazing, that’s what she is! She and her family made my furbaby feel so much at home and loved on her just as I do!! I got updates with photos and videos which is so very thoughtful. Stephanie went above and beyond keeping my Mercy longer when our flights home were canceled. Stephanie will forever be someone that I recommend to family and friends!”
“I hesitate to leave a review, honestly, because I don’t want more people taking up all of Amber’s availability! She really helped me out of a jam—two jams, actually—when she accepted my last-minute booking (like, basically 24 hours notice) when my other sitter canceled for an emergency, AND she VERY generously agreed to watch my dog for an extra night when I was stuck overnight at a the airport. Amber shared daily photos and videos and other updates. She’s both proactive and quickly responsive. Will happily trust her to watch my pup anytime. But for my sake, please just…find someone else 🙏🏻”

“Will & Jillian were great with Rosie and were great about sending pictures and communicating with us while we were away! We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Crista and her husband were welcoming and patient with all my questions as a new Rover customer. My dog had a great time playing with the other dogs and being outdoors in the fenced backyard. She was even allowed to sleep on a bed, just like at home. Crista sent regular updates and photos of my dog during the time away without my even asking! Drop off and pickup was easy. We will definitely want to stay with her again and highly recommend her services.”
“Jaxen was amazing! First time leaving my pup with someone other than my friends/ family and I was completely at ease. She sent daily updates and my pup was so happy when I picked her up. Will definitely be booking with her again for my next trip!”

“Jaime was amazing!! Pictures all the time!!! The dogs had so much playtime!! They weren’t just stuffed in a kennel till we got back. 10/10 would recommend amazing experience!”

“Joseph was amazing taking care of Trixie, we recently got her, so he gave me a few tips on how to train her properly which I really appreciated. He is an excellent sitter and if I ever need to board Trixie again, I will definitely be asking him to take her again. He also sent daily updates with photos and videos and I really loved that because it lets me see from the distance that she is happy and well taken care of. Thank you so much!”
“Joseph was very responsive and our pups came back happy which is always a good sign. We even have a 20 week old puppy and he did great with them. I would recommend him to anyone.”
