“We loved Brandi and her family!! Rye was very well taken care of and I’m so happy Brandi and her family watched her for us on our wedding weekend. Rye had so much fun she didn’t want to leave!”

“George and his wife were excellent! Great communication, and they even graciously let us book an additional night when we decided to extend our trip. We will definitely request for our pup to stay with them again when we’re in the Chattanooga area!”

“Echo is the best! Once again my dog had a wonderful stay with her family. This time we forgot to bring her dog food and Echo offered to give her dog food to our dog so we didn't have to drive back home to go get it. So nice! We are grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter for our dog. I highly recommend her!”

“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!”

“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.”


“This was my 2nd booking with Christina and once again she did a wonderful job! She didn’t mind me checking in daily on them and provided updates and pictures to let me know they were behaving just fine! My pups had a blast and were well taken care of :)”

“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!”

“Crista and her family took great care of our babies while we were away. Drop off and pick up were easy, they kept us updated and sent pictures, and even our shyest pup was able to get comfortable with them. Highly recommend!”


“Crystal was great! Theo was exhausted when he came home after a week long stay because he played so hard with the other dogs. Will definitely be using her again ?”

“Pam was incredible! We had a different sitter booked and they cancelled on the last minute so we needed to secure someone to care for our wild dog very quickly. From the first interaction, Pam was responsive, confident, and calm. She provided regular updates, asked questions when needed, and I was confident Benji was in good hands.”

“I texted Megan when I heard the thunder last weekend to let her know we packed Barkley’s thunder shirt if he needed it. She said that she already had it on him and sent a picture. That meant a lot that she was looking out for him like that. We’ve used her several times and when we drop him off he looks happy to be there. It’s clear he likes being there and she is an excellent caregiver.”

“Sara is the best! I recently left my sweet boy Leo with Sara while I traveled across the country for over a week. Due to flight delays and massive storm my trip was extended and I was delayed getting home. Sara gladly kept Leo longer and made sure I received updates and photos while I was away and missing my pup. I’m so grateful for Sara and the amazing care and love she provided to Leo while I was away. Sara is our #1 go-to anytime Leo needs to be cared for in my absence in the future. Thank you, Sara!”

“My cat Willow had such a great time! I loved getting pictures everyday to see how she was doing. She was cared for so well! I’m so glad there’s someone close by that I can trust to help out with my animals!!”


“Destiny was fantastic! Communication was great, and we got daily updates/pictures of our dog. We were confident our pup was in great hands while we were away. We will definitely be using her again 😊.”

“Jessica is an amazing person and has great energy - I had no concerns about her taking care of my pup in her own home for a few days. From the pictures Jessica sent and the long looks at the door once my dog was home, it looks like it was a blast and she's excited to stay with Jessica again in the future. Thank you, Jessica!”

“Brittany was so sweet and communicative. My dog wasn’t feeling well during his stay. She told me what was going on right away and offered to go get anything that might make him feel better. Thankfully the situation resolved and he was able to enjoy the rest of his stay.”
About: All my life, I have been around dogs. I currently have a sweet boy, Winston, who is a Pit Mix. I’ve had several different dogs over the years and have assisted family and friends with pet care. I also have previous work experience with a pet boarding and grooming facility in Baton Rouge. From having experience in a professional setting and having experience caring for pets at home, I find the at home care to be much more comfortable for the pet- which is why I decided to register here! I love making the pets and their owners feel as comfortable as possible. A personal touch- I like to take funny/cute pictures of what we do and send them to you once I’ve completed the service! I currently have two dogs that I watch for my mother. When I am in town, this looks like walks every afternoon and evening, frequent play time, and feedings. I love to make sure they are happy- whether that’s running around outside, long play time, some chill TLC, or even a few extra treats ;)
“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!!”

About: I currently have a bloodhound and 4 cats, as well as a foster dog. My had my last dog for 15 years, so I am very experienced in senior dog care. Old doggos have a special place in my heart. I am self employed so I have a fairly flexible schedule so I can usually work around anything that might be needed or come up. I have a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door so dogs have constant access to the back yard. I also walk dogs 1-2 times a day.
“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!”

“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!”

I work full time but have plenty of time on weekends to watch and play with your little ones when you want the weekend to go somewhere I can follow any detail instructions on how you want your pet taken care of and will do anything there use to a certain times of day I know pets learn when you do things a specific times

“Mike is a nice person and has done a fantastic job taking care of our cats. We had a couple of different quirks in our arrangement around some electronics like litter robots and auto-feeders. He did a great job with it and kept our kids happy. I would definitely recommend !”

About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats. I love taking them for walks, the park or helping them learn to swim. I know the importance of giving dogs medications and taking them to appointments. I also keep dogs well groomed while I watch them I currently work full time 5 days a week but but will spend all my free time taking care of your pets. I will check on them throughout the day during work if needed I live in an apartment that has 1 bedroom. The apartment complex does allow animals. I have ring cameras in my place and outside my place to make sure I’m always able to see if my home and the animals are safe

About: To comfort any animal brings comfort to myself. I have experience with all kinds of pets and love all animals but cats are what you’d find in my home. It’s a common misconception that cats don’t require much attention but as a domesticated animal they thrive on human companionship while also having many natural instincts to accommodate. Some require more attention than others depending on their personality. One of the most important instincts to satisfy is the need to hunt/play. There are some automatic or interactive toys that work well but for the most part the best toy is something on the end of a string attached to a wand/rod and their human’s participation. This way you can mimic the evasive movements of an actual prey for your cat to hunt. This provides exercise and stimulation and I would be happy to play with your cat(s) I’m very good at befriending anxious or less trusting cats and identifying the things that exacerbate their anxiety and finding solutions to comfort them. I also have experience administering medications. With a cat the easiest route of administration is a liquid solution mixed in with some wet food or treat or squirted into the back side of the mouth with an oral syringe. Giving a cat a pill can be more difficult but it can be done. I would wrap them in a towel or blanket, lubricate pill so it doesn’t stick to fingers or tongue, tilt head back and insert pill into back of the mouth, return head to level position and rub their throat and/or slightly blow on the nose to stimulate swallowing reflexes, then give them a treat and love them! When possible I scoop our 3 cats’ boxes after every use. I’m happy to clean and scoop your cat’s box(es) with the same vigilance. A clean litter box is one factor in ensuring a healthy and happy cat!
About: I've taken care of cats for 21 years. I've raised a baby kitten and taken care of an elderly cat. I fell in love with dogs after I met my husband and was introduced to his German Shepard baby I'm currently available for boarding for cats at any time, and dog walks on the weekends at any time. I can also drop by your house up to twice a day to care for your cat. I have a safe home with space for a cat to run around and play. I keep all dogs on the leash while walking with them.
About: I am friends and families go to dog sitter for when there is vacations, or someone is busy. I have been doing this for family and friends for a couple of years now im currently college student and would love to watch over your fur babies! with me being in school and work i’m normally pretty flexible with my schedule as all my classes are early in the morning! I have a huge fence around my yard and two adorable fur babies if yours are needing some company. I will be able to watch over your dog at all times if needed.

“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!”
“Amazing experience!! Needed last minute doggie daycare while I was away at a baby shower for 4-5 hours which was longer than I wanted to leave my 8 week old Winston in a kennel. Rachel was available and able to help. So blessed and thankful to be able to do what I needed to do without worrying about him. He had fun, she fed him when he got hungry, and he slept until I got back. She sent updated pics too which eased my mind he was in great hands! What a blessing and lifesaver she is. Will definitely be using her service again.”

“Dominique was so welcoming and took great care of our Scout. We were from out of town visiting our very elderly aunt and our 105 pound loving golden retriever couldn’t go to the retirement home. We found our sitter just 2 miles away and immediately felt comfortable with our texting before the trip. We highly recommend!”

I love animals and have a very open schedule, so I am looking to spend my time doing something i love- caring for animals! I have cared for animals of all personalities and types, and have experience handling medications and fixing invisible fences as well! Im currently a fresh grad and job searching so I can very flexible. I want to keep working while i search for my next move in life! I live in an apartment downtown, so I do not have a yard. That being said, it is better for me to house-sit than board, but I am open to boarding as i live near several parks like Marion square!
“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.”

About: I’m a professional dog trainer who apprenticed under Kevin Behan founder of Natural Dog Training and author of Your Dog is Your Mirror.

I have plans for a small kennel and training out of my house long term. Available all week days and possibly weekends with reasonable notice. I have six acres of wooded land that backs up to hundreds of acres of state owned land. I have a fenced in play yard, and two side kennels that get all day shade. Also have space to accommodate crates as well!
“Would definitely be a repeat customer of Tatiana’s! She menu was accommodating, friendly, great location, and better yet our dog loved her and her sweet dog, Kairo!”

“It is so reassuring to know your pets are being watched by someone who makes dogs, their career. Someone unflustered by two busy, not quite fully polished pups. I’ll be back again next time I visit Chattanooga!”

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring her to care for my furry friends and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a deep love and respect for animals, and it showed in the way she interacted with my dogs. I was able to enjoy my time away with complete peace of mind, knowing that my dogs were in great hands. When I returned, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for. I can't recommend Sonja and Yolanda highly enough - if you're looking for responsible, caring, and trustworthy dog sitters, look no further!”

“UH-MAZING! A lovely family that welcomes your furbabies as one of their own. We are so grateful for her and her family while we try to work on our pup’s separation anxiety! Just so awesome! :)”

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!
