“Echo is so wonderful to work with and our dog clearly has a great time with her and her family! I love how Echo sends me photos and updates, and she is so quick to respond to me, too. This is so appreciated as when I travel there are so many little things to think about and prep, but Echo makes boarding my dog so easy and seamless. We have boarded our dog a few times now with Echo and will continue to ask her to watch our dog. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Absolutely super family with a true passion for dogs! Very welcoming and took very good care of my senior dog. Sent updates and pics each day and never worried for a minute that my old man was getting excellent care. Thanks again!”
“Monty was well taken care of enjoyed all the attention. I will be using her again soon for our next trip. My doggie even hesitated on getting in our truck as he loved playing with her daughter. I was extremely pleased ?”
“Our dogs were given so much love over the last week. One of our pups had an upset tummy in the middle of the week and she kept us updated. She sent us pictures and I'm so thankful that I know they got lots of attention. We already another trip booked using them and a 3rd will be booked soon. Thanks for loving on my babies ❤️ Amy P.”
“Amazing sitter!! Communication was easy and Penelope was so at ease under her care! I had a great experience and I know Penelope did too! It’s so nice to know that she’s not anxious while I’m away!”
“Brittany did a great job taking care of our pups while we were away. She kept us up to date on how they were doing while we were out. We were most pleased by the facilities for the dogs as they were able to be social with each other and with other dogs rather than constrained within individual kennels. This was a big deal for us, especially for such a long stay.”
“I feel so lucky to have found George S. and family. He and his home set me so at ease from the first moment. My dogs are 'middle aged' and Lizzie has delicate health. Huck's on a diet. George was so easy to work with and accommodating and attentive to my (pretty simple) requests. I know for sure that my dogs were treated as members of his household. He sent me photos and told me little tidbits about Huck and Lizzie that made me know they cared and his family had grown affection for my pups--which the pups can certainly can sense. Once back home, they seemed content and relaxed. I love Rover.com! George S. and family will be my go-to caretakers any time I need boarding.”
“Denita always does a great job with our doggo! He gets to play his little heart out with the other dogs and has a blast! He is always so exhausted from the fun he had which is an added bonus for us lol! We have used her for every vacation we go on and will continue to do so!”
“Rachel is a great sitter. I left my pup with her on two occasions - once for a weekend and another for an 8 day trip. She did an amazing job with her and I could tell my dog had a great time. She sends daily updates and photos which is greatly appreciated. More importantly Rachel is super understanding and was able to be flexible with me when my return flight was delayed and cancelled. I will definitely keep using her as my sitter anytime we go out of town - 10/10 would recommend!”
“Charish did a fantastic job with our Sheepadoodle, Nooga for an overnight stay. We did a meet and greet the week before her stay. While we were gone we got updates with pictures! Nooga seemed to be content and enjoyed her stay. Really appreciate The Charish took to love on our girl!”
“My dog loved his stay at Angela‘s house! Angela has a nice home in a quiet part of Chattanooga. My dog got along great with her dog and her children and was treated as part of the family. He had plenty of room to roam around inside and out in the fenced yard. I will definitely use Angela‘s services again.”
“I'm so thankful to have found Christine and her family to keep our black lab while we were away for a few days. Chrisitine was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. It was obvious that her kids had a big part in taking care of our dog, and he received lots of love and attention. When I picked him up, he was more calm and relaxed than he has ever been after being away from home. I would not hesitate to book with Christine again in the future.”
“Absolutely amazing and stunning experience. Abigail was incredible! I got so many photos and videos. She took my dog to the dog park many times and even took him in to get a few toys when he chewed up the ones I sent with him. 100% my dog did NOT want to leave her, he had such a great time! Abigail is new to this platform, but has great experience. Definitely give her your business!”
“The dogs are absolutely exhausted after their stay with Joslynne! We received updates and happy pictures.... especially when puppuccinos were involved! Joslynne had super sweet pups herself and was able to give them all endless love.”
“Brandy was so sweet to my pup and sent daily updates! She was very responsive as well. He came back to me in awesome spirits and seemed to have a great time! I would definitely re-book with her!”

“We had Becca come for a meet and greet while we were home to meet our pack and the setup for future house sitting. She was very communicative prior to the visit and really loved on our furbabies during the visit. We are looking forward to planning our trip and for Becca to stay with our furbabies.”
About: Cats are some of my favorite creatures on earth, and I have owned two of my own for seven years. One of my cats has separation anxiety, so I know how hard it can be to travel while worrying about your pets. My goal is to provide an enriching but calming experience for your cats while you’re away so you can have peace of mind. I have experience administering medication to cats, and am meticulously observant about any behavioral changes.
“It was evident when we first met her, JaNiya is an animal lover. She’s knowledgeable about animals and their needs. She was patient with our scaredy cat and let her slowly get used to the new human in the house. JaNiya is very kind and she was respectful of our home. We will definitely request her to housesit/cat sit for us again.”
About: I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment where pets can truly relax and feel at home while you’re away. After many years working as a software engineer, I’m now retired and finally able to focus on something I’ve always loved — caring for animals. I’ve spent a lifetime around dogs, cats, and even chickens, and I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, they’ll receive patient, attentive care in a low-stress environment — not a crowded kennel or chaotic setting. At my home, pets enjoy a peaceful atmosphere, outdoor space, and even access to a private trail for safe, supervised walks and enrichment. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind, and to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for — just like family. Being retired allows me to dedicate a lot of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m home most of the day, so they are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, consistent environment. I naturally build my daily routine around their needs—regular feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest. I also adapt to each pet’s habits and energy level, whether they need more activity or a quieter pace. Because of my flexible schedule, I can provide close supervision and make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay. I provide a safe, clean, and calm home environment where pets are always supervised and treated with care and respect. I take time at the beginning of each stay to understand your pet’s routine, habits, and any special instructions so I can keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. In my home, I ensure the space is secure and pet-friendly, with no access to anything unsafe. Pets have a comfortable area to rest, fresh water at all times, and a clean environment. I closely supervise interactions and never leave pets unattended in situations that could pose a risk. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, and I monitor behavior to quickly notice any signs of stress or discomfort. If needed, I can separate pets to ensure everyone remains safe and relaxed. My goal is to create a trusted environment where pets feel at ease and owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands.
“Courtney has came by twice now to let my littles out while I'm at work. She is very communicative and punctual. She takes a lot of pictures for me so I can see that my two dogs are enjoying their break from the crate. She made sure to reach out and ask questions on the little details that I forgot to share or that I didn't even think about. She is very thorough. I am excited to find such a lovely sitter to trust my babies with.”

About: As a lifelong animal enthusiast, I understand the unique needs and personalities of our furry friends. So I know how difficult it is to find someone you trust with your pets! From dogs and cats to birds and small critters, I've had the pleasure of caring for a wide variety of pets, each with its own special requirements and quirks. I volunteered for 2 years at a wildlife rehabilitation center, working with animals such as reptiles, song birds, raptors, and small mammals! Being able to learn and deliver medical aid and life saving care to hundreds of babies. Your pet will be treated with the utmost love, respect, and personalized attention they deserve by creating a safe and comfortable environment so they can thrive while you're away. Whether it be short term or long. I am currently a studying student and an entrepreneur looking for extra work to finish out the year as well as add to my savings. I have a massive backyard away from any main roads, I can easily crate your dog if need be. Rest assured, your pets safety is top priority! Communication is key, Ill always keep you updated on your dog's experiences through regular photo and video updates. I want you to feel involved in your pets adventures just as much as they are 🐶 Please keep in mind tipping is fantastic, though also, absolutely, NEVER a requirement. But just for reference, Rover takes 20% of all cost from bookings not including taxes, Ex. If youre paying your sitter $100 for a full time housesit, your sitter gets $80. Tips go 100% to your sitter no matter who you choose 🐾
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.
About: I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment where pets can truly relax and feel at home while you’re away. After many years working as a software engineer, I’m now retired and finally able to focus on something I’ve always loved — caring for animals. I’ve spent a lifetime around dogs, cats, and even chickens, and I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, they’ll receive patient, attentive care in a low-stress environment — not a crowded kennel or chaotic setting. At my home, pets enjoy a peaceful atmosphere, outdoor space, and even access to a private trail for safe, supervised walks and enrichment. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind, and to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for — just like family. Being retired allows me to dedicate a lot of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m home most of the day, so they are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, consistent environment. I naturally build my daily routine around their needs—regular feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest. I also adapt to each pet’s habits and energy level, whether they need more activity or a quieter pace. Because of my flexible schedule, I can provide close supervision and make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for throughout their stay. I provide a safe, clean, and calm home environment where pets are always supervised and treated with care and respect. I take time at the beginning of each stay to understand your pet’s routine, habits, and any special instructions so I can keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. In my home, I ensure the space is secure and pet-friendly, with no access to anything unsafe. Pets have a comfortable area to rest, fresh water at all times, and a clean environment. I closely supervise interactions and never leave pets unattended in situations that could pose a risk. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, and I monitor behavior to quickly notice any signs of stress or discomfort. If needed, I can separate pets to ensure everyone remains safe and relaxed. My goal is to create a trusted environment where pets feel at ease and owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands.
About: Hi, I’m Tony! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’m lucky enough to have turned that love into my career. I’m a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) graduate currently trying to get my license. I’m passionate about making pets feel safe, loved, and cared for, just like part of the family. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog needing extra TLC, or a cat who just needs a cozy lap to nap on, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and at home, even when you can’t be there. I am currently living in Ooltewah, while I wait for my veterinary license. I have lots of free time during the week to dedicate to caring for your pets! I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own home. During each visit, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I have clinical experience, so I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets, special needs pets, and administering medications if needed. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, and you can trust that your pet is in kind, capable hands every step of the way. My goal is to provide not just care, but comfort, attention, and peace of mind, for both you and your pet!

About: I am such an animal lover, and I like to think they love me too;) I have owned dogs my whole life and recently adopted a cat, Willow! I’m excited to meet and care for your pets:) I am a student at MTSU currently home for the summer, and I’m working part time at the moment. This means that I am available often! I am very attentive of my animals (currently one dog and one cat). I feed them on a consistent schedule and let the dog out every two-three hours. I also provide them with lots of attention, whether they would prefer to be in my skin (my dog) or relax in the same area without touch (my cat). I can be very adaptive to any animals’ needs!

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!

“Echo is so wonderful to work with and our dog clearly has a great time with her and her family! I love how Echo sends me photos and updates, and she is so quick to respond to me, too. This is so appreciated as when I travel there are so many little things to think about and prep, but Echo makes boarding my dog so easy and seamless. We have boarded our dog a few times now with Echo and will continue to ask her to watch our dog. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Absolutely super family with a true passion for dogs! Very welcoming and took very good care of my senior dog. Sent updates and pics each day and never worried for a minute that my old man was getting excellent care. Thanks again!”
“Our dogs were given so much love over the last week. One of our pups had an upset tummy in the middle of the week and she kept us updated. She sent us pictures and I'm so thankful that I know they got lots of attention. We already another trip booked using them and a 3rd will be booked soon. Thanks for loving on my babies ❤️ Amy P.”
“Brittany did a great job taking care of our pups while we were away. She kept us up to date on how they were doing while we were out. We were most pleased by the facilities for the dogs as they were able to be social with each other and with other dogs rather than constrained within individual kennels. This was a big deal for us, especially for such a long stay.”
“I feel so lucky to have found George S. and family. He and his home set me so at ease from the first moment. My dogs are 'middle aged' and Lizzie has delicate health. Huck's on a diet. George was so easy to work with and accommodating and attentive to my (pretty simple) requests. I know for sure that my dogs were treated as members of his household. He sent me photos and told me little tidbits about Huck and Lizzie that made me know they cared and his family had grown affection for my pups--which the pups can certainly can sense. Once back home, they seemed content and relaxed. I love Rover.com! George S. and family will be my go-to caretakers any time I need boarding.”
“Rachel is a great sitter. I left my pup with her on two occasions - once for a weekend and another for an 8 day trip. She did an amazing job with her and I could tell my dog had a great time. She sends daily updates and photos which is greatly appreciated. More importantly Rachel is super understanding and was able to be flexible with me when my return flight was delayed and cancelled. I will definitely keep using her as my sitter anytime we go out of town - 10/10 would recommend!”
“Charish did a fantastic job with our Sheepadoodle, Nooga for an overnight stay. We did a meet and greet the week before her stay. While we were gone we got updates with pictures! Nooga seemed to be content and enjoyed her stay. Really appreciate The Charish took to love on our girl!”
“I'm so thankful to have found Christine and her family to keep our black lab while we were away for a few days. Chrisitine was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. It was obvious that her kids had a big part in taking care of our dog, and he received lots of love and attention. When I picked him up, he was more calm and relaxed than he has ever been after being away from home. I would not hesitate to book with Christine again in the future.”
“The dogs are absolutely exhausted after their stay with Joslynne! We received updates and happy pictures.... especially when puppuccinos were involved! Joslynne had super sweet pups herself and was able to give them all endless love.”
“Brandy was so sweet to my pup and sent daily updates! She was very responsive as well. He came back to me in awesome spirits and seemed to have a great time! I would definitely re-book with her!”
“Super sweet and accommodating! We had a cancellation and needed a last minute babysitter, and Laura helped us out no questions asked! She sent us updates everyday, and even had extra collars when we forgot ours. Our puppy seemed to get along great with her pets/family, so I’d definitely recommend Laura if your pup enjoys running around and socializing. I will definitely be rebooking!!!”
“Just picked up our golden retriever after a week. We were nervous letting someone watch out puppy for the first time but felt 100% comfortable with Bethani! She communicated quickly and effectively and even sent us updates everyday with pictures and videos. We would definitely want our pup to stay with her again!”
“Cora and her family were amazing! They watched our 7 months old golden retriever for five days and took great care of her. The dogs all got along well and Belle loved her kids! Our flight also got moved back a day and Cora was super flexible and kept Belle an extra day for us. We got multiple pictures every day, Belle got to go out on lots of walks and got lots of snuggles on the couch. This was my first time leaving Belle and also my first time using a sitting service, and it couldn’t have been a better experience!”
