“Michaela was great! She loved our pup like we love our pup and even took special care of our sons crested gecko. We are so lucky to have found Michaela and we totally be using her again!”
About: I grew up with multiple dogs and cats and spent years taking care of friends pets! Nothing makes me more happy than making sure animals have a fun and exciting day! Currently between careers so i have plenty of flexibility around visiting your pets! I do have pets of my own i need to tend to during the day, but aside from that I'm pretty available! Happy to tend to any kind of animal. I'm a lover of dogs of ALL sizes (yes even the big "scary" ones)! Let me know how i can make your pet more comfortable and I'll do my absolute best to accommodate!
“Hannah is a lovely person and a joy for my dogs. Angel is a senior husky with bladder cancer and deafness and is easily confused and has pretty consistent accidents in the house. Hannah was kind and gentle with Angel and too time to get Angel on track. Izzy is a senior Doberman who is anxious and has fear based aggression. She took the time to get to know Izzy and now Izzy loves her and trusts her. Hannah follows instructions for preferences with your pets but then loves them like her own. Hands down the best decision we’ve ever made for our pups.”
“Ben’s service to our dog and our family was top-notch. He was prompt for the meet and greet meeting, he messaged ahead on the day of the booking to see if there was anything that needed changed. He went above and beyond with watching our dog: taking her for a walk and playtime in the backyard. He texted us photos and even a concern about a skin blemish with our dog. He cleaned up very well after himself, even laundering our guest bedroom bedding. We recommend his services to anyone who has need. And we will definitely be booking him again.”
“Our 3 dogs and 1 cat were well cared for by Stephanie and Jay while we were on a long trip (10 days). We came home to relaxed and happy animals, and a clean house! We appreciated the great communication of daily updates and photos, which helped us feel secure that our kiddos were in good hands. Highly recommend hiring these two!”
About: I have had pets my whole life! I worked at a local vet clinic for over 8 years before becoming an RN. I am experienced in giving meds, caring for senior pets, snuggles, and love! I will love your pet as my own! I am currently a stay at home/homeschool mom. We are home for the majority of most days. We love to be outside, go on walks, and spoil pets! I have an 8 foot privacy fence around my large back yard. I am mom to a playful and very friendly golden retriever and a 13 year old diva cat who mostly sleeps all day. I am available for overnight care at your home or drop-in visits.
“Andrew was great. My maltipoo, Leonard, took to him right away. Andrew is very kind, responsible and was very good with Leonard. Andrew took him for a walk every day of his sit. He also kept me posted with a daily picture. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with him.”
“Rachel has done a phenomenal job at taking care of my dog. She was very communicative and went above and beyond. My dog is quite anxious especially around new people, I could tell how comfortable she made him. I highly recommend booking with her!”
“I can’t thank Ryan enough for taking such good care of Blue while I was away. He kept me updated with pics and messages which was much appreciated! Ryan is also a good communicator, dependable, and follows instructions. His calm demeanor also helps keep Blue’s excitable nature in check! 😄. Blue was a happy, healthy boy when I returned. I wouldn’t hesitate to request Ryan again in the future!”
About: Hello, my name is Anna! I am a registered nurse in Chattanooga. With my extra time, I would love to help take care of animals in our community while their parents are away. I have worked and volunteered with animals for years. Shoot me a message and we can get to know each other! I work Monday through Friday 8am - 5pm and have free time on most Saturdays and Sunday's. During the week I could do check-ins at 6am or after 5:45 pm. I am available many weekends. Our family has loved many cats over the years, and our latest kitty required fluid injections every other day and medications and ear ointment. I am used to providing detailed care and lots of love and play too. I am very organized, and that has been useful when pet sitting.
“Christian took great care of our house and dog while we were away. He was very communicative before and during the house sitting. We received frequent updates and our dog enjoyed time spent with Christian.”
“Rebecca was a fantastic dog sitter—kind, professional, and attentive. She took exceptional care of both our dogs, including our eight-week-old pup. Her regular updates, complete with pictures and videos, put us at ease, knowing our fur babies were in good hands. It was clear the dogs were as happy with Rebecca as we were. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! My name is Emily. I am a 24 year old veterinary assistant who loves animals and ensuring owners that their pets are in the best hands possible while they are away. I have been a veterinary nurse for 7 years and have been pet sitting for 10 years. I am able to properly medicate or administer injections (insulin for example) to pets if they are prescribed any medications. I like to meet with owners prior to their trip that way if there are any special needs or medications for the pet that I am aware of them. I have experience working with all ages of pets and am confident that I make sure your pet is comfortable and in safe hands while you are away. The most important part of being a pet sitter is ensuring that the pet I am watching feels safe, happy and that the stay is as low stress as possible. I currently work part time at an animal hospital and part time at a restaurant. A couple days out of the week I am working 11 hour shifts. As a sitter my goal is to keep your pet safe, stress free, and comfortable. In order to make that happen I like to communicate with my clients and learn more about their fur baby. I also am happy to communicate with the client while on their trip if they prefer that with photos and updates.
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and have always had a natural love for caring for them! 🐾 I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs, cats, farm animals and reptiles. I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, caring, and passionate about making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. ❤️ Pet care has always been a part of my everyday life! I own a dog, two cats, a snake, bearded dragon, leopard gecko, and a betta fish, and that’s after I rehomed 5 animals lol. Caring for so many different animals has made taking care of pets a natural part of my daily routine. 🐾💕 I do not have a fenced-in backyard, so I wouldn’t have a private area to let your dog out, but we can always go somewhere public or use your yard if your home offers one. I also have a crate available if needed! I care for every animal with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, fed, exercised, and given plenty of love and attention while sticking to their normal routines.
About: Caring for animals is a big part of my life! I currently work at a veterinary clinic and have experience caring for many different types of animals. I know how much your pets mean to you, and my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and give them plenty of personal attention. I’d love to become someone you and your pets can count on! I work a couple of days a week at a veterinary hospital and I get 2 hrs for lunch so im available to care for your fur babies as needed I available to care for your pets as you would and my goal is to keep them happy and healthy and on schedule that you provide me with.
About: I have always been around a lot of dogs, cats, horses, chickens you name it, growing up on a farm gave me much discipline needed for pet care. My schedule is open! I am a student at UTC and have classes during the week 9-5ish but free in evenings and on weekends. I prefer to care for pets in the clients home because I go to school away from where I live so I am mostly in Nashville.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Whisperwood
Christian was wonderful! We came home to a clean house and happy dogs. This was our first time leaving the dogs in our new home and Christian aced it. Watered our garden, cleaned up after himself, gave us updates, checked the mail and most of all gave us piece of mind while we were out of the country. Will definitely be using his services again.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Whisperwood walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Whisperwood maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Whisperwood choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
