“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.”
“My dog had a great experience with Crista! It was my first time leaving Winnie while I went on a trip, and crista sent me plenty of pictures during my trip which warmed my heart and it looked like Winnie had a GREAT time. I highly recommend!”
“Stephanie Was wonderful. I loved all the pictures she sent and My Winston was having a blast. I would definitely book with Stephanie again and highly recommend her. My Winston was so worn out when he got home which means he had a blast.”

“Avery took care of Mortimer. A dog that is stand offish… he took to Avery immediately!! I couldn’t be any happier and thrilled that we and Mo have a Rover friend we trust so much!!!”
“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!”
“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 🙏🏻”
“Tish is amazing! She took my two dogs when I had to leave town at the last minute. She was so kind and made sure they felt right at home. We were updated frequently with photos and videos which was much appreciated. The drop off and pick up were so easy and I can’t wait to use her again! Thank you Tish!”
“I am so grateful and satisfied with Giulia services. She was flexible and her entire family were very loving to Scarlette. She and her family took care of Scarlette like it was her own dog. She sent me pictures with updates and Scarlette returned home very happy. Great person, great family. I highly recommend her. Thank you Giulia.”
“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!”
“Joseph was very communicative and took great care of camper! I received photos of camper multiple times a day and felt like camper was in great hands. Definitely recommend!”
“Finn seemed to enjoy playing in their large fenced yard. I think he got along well with their dog and another guest dog. He seemed happy when we picked him up. I never saw George, but his mother was very nice.”
“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!”
“Megan was an absolute lifesaver. We had to unexpectedly go out of town last minute and Megan came to our rescue. She was extremely quick to respond and within 24 hours I reached out with my initial communication, we had a meet and greet, and she was then watching our Miller. Not only did she send regular updates and pictures but Miller came home tired from all the playing he got to do. I highly recommend and we will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“We were nervous about introducing our elderly pup, Bear, to a new boarding situation but with his mobility issues, taking him on trips just isn’t feasible any more, Jaxen assuaged those fears quickly, and took such fantastic care of him! Apparently, the specialized in elderly dog care. Bear was a happy, relaxed boy when we came back. We will definitely be utilizing Jaxen again.”
“Karie was amazing and Honey loved his holiday weekend with her. She made him feel so comforted during the fireworks and sent photos often to keep us updated on how he was doing. I'll be using Karie from now on when we go on vacation!”
“Tiffany is a fantastic sitter. Highly recommend. She is thoughtful and makes sure my dog is well taken care of while he stays with her. She also sends regular updates so that is also very much appreciated. DJ is always happy to stay with Tiffany!”
“Jonathan took excellent care of my dog. It was his first time being boarded since I adopted him and he was very nervous. Jonathan waited until he was ready to interact and earned his trust. He bathed him. He sent pictures to let me know he was OK. I will definitely use Jonathan to board Little Man the next time I have to travel.”
“Fantastic experience with Christina and her family. She helped me out a ton with taking Harvey on a short notice. Great communications, sent pictures and made drop off/pick up easy.”
“Justin is as good as they get. Trusted him 100% the entire time we were abroad on vacation to do what’s best for Sango. Sango loves his time with Justin and his dogs, and we appreciate having such reliable and quality care.”

“Kristin was fantastic! Our floofs were attentively cared for daily, and we received lots of photos each visit. Additionally, she was sweet enough to care for our 2 foster rabbits as well. Thank you, Kristin!”
“Appreciate how thorough Baylee was in her comments and photos. Put my mind at ease that my cat was being well cared for. Baylee was also consistent in when she dropped in everyday, which allowed me to not have to worry if/when she would show up. Look forward to using Baylee in the future!”
“Bonnie was so sweet to our baby girl! She was very consistent and made sure we had plenty of photos and videos plus updates on her behavior. She definitely took a lot of the worry out of leaving our girl at home for a week!! I highly recommend 😀”
“Emily is absolutely fantastic! This is the second time we have worked with her and plan to book her again soon. Emily is easy to work with and pays special attention to details while caring for our cats. I have no worries leaving our cats in her care while we are away. Having Emily as a reliable partner caring for our cats assures me that I will have a true relaxing get away and no worries on my business travels.”
“Danielle is very thorough and provided plenty of pictures. She took the time to make sure both of our shy cats were fed - even bringing them their food if they were too shy to come out. We will definitely book with Danielle again.”
“Fantastic with my cats, they clearly loved spending time with Caroline over the long weekend. Very punctual, sent great pictures and updates. Will be reaching out for future visits when needed.”
“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!”
“Avery has been AWESOME!!! I have three DIFFICULT cats. One was diagnosed with FIP a month ago and he needs life-saving meds at the same time every day. On top of that, he is TERRIFIED of everyone except for me. My other two are also scaredy cats. Avery was able to work with all three cats, made sure my sick kitty got his meds every night (even though he refused to come out of hiding!!!), befriended the two shy kitties (including the spicy one!!!) Avery made sure to check in with me each day- before, during and after every visit! I am also a pet/house sitter so I'm picky and particular, especially with my own cats being SO tricky, and I'd give Avery a 10/10! Already have future petsitting dates requested! Thank you SO much, Avery!!! 🫶🏼”
“Terezie was great! She gave daily updates and pictures. She had a nice space for my kitty and treated her with care. She was extremely accommodating especially when I was having car issues, she’s so kind. You can tell she wants to help and make things easier. Would definitely recommend and book again! Thank you Terezie!”
“Anna was amazing and took great care of our cats while we were out of town! She really went above and beyond and really cares for animals. I am so glad she was there to give the cats lovins while we were gone.”
“Margo took great care of our cats while we were gone. Her responses were fast and attentive, and I would happily recommend her to anyone that needs their fur babies looked after!”
“This is the second booking that I’ve had with Kari and will continue to book if she’s available. She’s fantastic, has great communication and is proactive. I refer to her as Aunt Kari to the cats. ♥️”
“Very good dog sitter. Did really good with our big dogs. Very communicative and really cares about them. Very trust worthy. We did not have to worry about her during our time away from home.”
About: My mom used to run an in home pet sitting service, and I always enjoyed helping take care of the dogs and cats. I have three shih-poos at home, and I love getting to meet all kinds of dogs. I’m a junior at UTC, and I have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I live in the area and frequently go on long walks for fun. I always make sure that an animal’s collar is properly fitted, inspect the leash for rips, and make sure to lock and shut the door securely behind me.
“Crista did a phenomenal job with our 2 cats Milo and Zion! She made she all their needs were met. She played with them and sent us pictures of our adorable kitties. We would definitely hire her again in the future!”

“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.”
“I have been using Crista for several months now for daycare and boarding. My pup loves coming to Crista's daycare. And I feel very comfortable boarding my pup with her. He's very well taken care of and has grown fond of her daughter.”
“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!! 😊”
“While on vacation the need arose and we needed a sitter, with little notice Danielle was able to watch our fur baby, Danielle was amazing and very caring and attentive, highly recommend.”
“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.”
“I’ve used Joseph a few times now, and he’s been amazing every time. My puppy has so much fun and always comes home tired (in the best way). Joseph is reliable, caring, and someone I fully trust with my dog.”
“Sara is amazing with Leo! He is so happy when he gets to go to her house and I always know he is well taken care of and has a blast. Will definitely keep asking Sara to hang with my boy!”
“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: 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 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!”

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’ve taken care of my brothers, friends, and family’s dogs periodically throughout the decades and have now personally had my own pup for going on 3 years. I make it a point to give each dog, whether it’s mine or someone’s else’s a fun and good life to live. A dormant unattended to dog bothers me to no end so your dog would be in not only great hands but hands that will actively pursue making your dad have the best day! I currently work weekends at the hospital so most of my week days are free and clear! I’m a natural night owl so being up late isn’t a problem either I live in a fenced/gated town home community with extremely friendly neighbors who all have dogs. We have a gated dog park for all the dogs to mingle and play as well as many parks and fields surrounding the home to where they can get exercise! Each dog will be directly cared for 1 on 1 with me in my townhome to ensure proper care
“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!”
“Finn had a great time with Joslynne for doggy daycare! He loved having so many friends to play with. Joslynne was very responsive and flexible with pick up/drop off. Would definitely use her again if we’re in the area!”
“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.”

“Skylar has been a great blessing to us providing care to Honey and Lady. Easy to talk to and discuss caring plan. Lovely with pets and my dogs love her. Can't get any better in my opinion.”
About: When I'm home from college, I live on a street that has lots of pets, so for the past 7ish years, my neighbors have asked me to pet sit while they have been out of town. At home, I have a senior dog and a small dog with 3 legs, so I have experience with both seniors and disabled dogs. I am a college student, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I don't have many in-person classes, so I should be available most of the time. I care for pets by taking them on walks throughout the day, ensuring they have enough water, feeding them at the appropriate times, administering their medication, and playing with them during the day.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. On my 18th birthday, I got an English Bulldog, which taught me the importance of understanding breed-specific needs, health concerns, and proper care. Since then, I’ve spent countless hours researching dog behavior, nutrition, exercise requirements, and overall wellness. I have experience dog sitting and walking dogs of different sizes and personalities. Whether it’s an energetic dog that needs plenty of exercise or a senior dog that requires extra patience and attention, I take the time to make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care and give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. My schedule is very flexible this summer while I’m waiting for school to start back, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and follow the owner’s instructions closely. For boarding, I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and regular feeding schedules. While I do not have a fenced yard, I live directly across from a park and make sure dogs get plenty of safe outdoor time and activity. Pets are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family. For house sitting, I maintain the pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable while also respecting and caring for the owner’s home. During walks, I focus on safety, exercise, and making sure each dog gets the attention and activity they need. No matter the service, I treat every pet as if they were my own and make their well-being my top priority.
“Crista is fantastic, I’ve used Crista’s services a few times now and will continue to do so in the future. I highly recommend her if you need someone to take care of your beloved pet!”
About: Mi, my name is Sam! I have recently moved back to the US and am looking for more ways to cover rent. I have grown up with pets my entire life and I currently have two cats and three betta fish tanks. I grew up volunteering at my local humane society and have pet sit mostly for family, friends, and co-workers in the past. I have taken care of cats, small dogs, big dogs, puppies, elder dogs, and more. I am experienced with many different training routines, the most extensive being my friends hunting dog who had to have regular and intense training everyday from basic commands to complex routines. Also, no worries if your pet is a little "high maintenance", whatever your loved one needs I am ready to provide. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy and you feel assured of your pet's care. I am currently job hunting, so I do not know exactly what my schedule will look like at this exact moment. That said, once we communicate the best needs for your pet, I promise to only go for jobs where I can assure that your pet can follow their regular schedule. I can assure that when I come to your house, I will make sure to leave your home exactly as I found it (as I have many years experience house sitting, with many people joking about how "it was like they weren't even there"). I am currently job hunting so I have lots of availability as of right now. Once I am in a more stable working schedule, I will let you know as well as update my profile accordingly. Due to my schedule freedom right now, I am able to fully commit to your pets care. I will always do my best to make sure your pet feels as comfortable and as close to their normal routine as is possible. If it has not been communicated to me before your departure, I will always double check with you before doing something (ex: going to a park or on a hike, playing a certain way, unknown foods, etc.) and will keep you updated on anything I observe or experience.

“Finn seemed to enjoy playing in their large fenced yard. I think he got along well with their dog and another guest dog. He seemed happy when we picked him up. I never saw George, but his mother was very nice.”
“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!”
“Megan was an absolute lifesaver. We had to unexpectedly go out of town last minute and Megan came to our rescue. She was extremely quick to respond and within 24 hours I reached out with my initial communication, we had a meet and greet, and she was then watching our Miller. Not only did she send regular updates and pictures but Miller came home tired from all the playing he got to do. I highly recommend and we will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“We were nervous about introducing our elderly pup, Bear, to a new boarding situation but with his mobility issues, taking him on trips just isn’t feasible any more, Jaxen assuaged those fears quickly, and took such fantastic care of him! Apparently, the specialized in elderly dog care. Bear was a happy, relaxed boy when we came back. We will definitely be utilizing Jaxen again.”
“Karie was amazing and Honey loved his holiday weekend with her. She made him feel so comforted during the fireworks and sent photos often to keep us updated on how he was doing. I'll be using Karie from now on when we go on vacation!”
“Jonathan took excellent care of my dog. It was his first time being boarded since I adopted him and he was very nervous. Jonathan waited until he was ready to interact and earned his trust. He bathed him. He sent pictures to let me know he was OK. I will definitely use Jonathan to board Little Man the next time I have to travel.”
“Fantastic experience with Christina and her family. She helped me out a ton with taking Harvey on a short notice. Great communications, sent pictures and made drop off/pick up easy.”
“Justin is as good as they get. Trusted him 100% the entire time we were abroad on vacation to do what’s best for Sango. Sango loves his time with Justin and his dogs, and we appreciate having such reliable and quality care.”
“Taylor [& her husband] were amazing! They took such great care of my dog / 2-year-old puppy! And their dog Maggie was lovely too. I know Archie had a fabulous time as after I picked him up in the morning - he literally napped all day! I will definitely have Archie stay with them again!”
“Margot stayed with Gaby twice and she had a great time. It’s so nice to have somebody we can rely on while being away from home. Gaby is the person who makes me as a pet parent feel at ease, knowing my dog is safe and loved.”
“Our pups are always so happy every time we drop them off and clearly have a great time. And Jaime has always been so accommodating when our schedule changes. While we always miss them while we are gone, we always feel good knowing that are taken such good care of.”
“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!”
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 ;)
