“Kari does a great job taking care of our pets! She communicates any concerns while checking on the animals and sends daily updates and pictures. We trust Kari and we will continue to book her to take care of our pets!”


“Couldn’t be happier that we found Justin to hang with and care for our pup, Sango, and our two cats (Sushi and Nori). It’s a weight off our shoulders while out of town knowing that he is watching and caring for our pets.”


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.

“Journey was great and took good care of my babies. I particularly liked all the great pictures she took, as well as her notes after each visit :)”


“Janna took great care of our cat while we were on vacation. It looked like they did all of his favorite things, according to the photos she capture during her visits. Thanks Janna!”


About: I've been around dogs all my life. I take care of my friends' dogs regularly and have two Great Pyrenees dogs myself. I am comfortable with any breed. I am a local real estate agent so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can house sit and/or do drop ins on a regular basis. I make sure keep your pets on the same routine as they are use to make there times away from you as stress free as possible. I treat every one of my clients pets as if they were my own.

“Jodi once again is fantastic. She arrives when she say she will and my shy cat has opened up to her so much. I feel comfortable knowing she is in Jodi's care while I'm away.”


“Kelly was wonderful and stayed extra time to ensure my senior dog was ok before she left - as he'd just been recently diagnosed with anxiety. She provided timely replies and photos too. Would highly recommend her”


About: I have house sat and pet sat for many years and I love being able to provide a safe and comfortable atmosphere for your pet. I can take your pet on walks, give lots of love and snuggles, and take care of your house as needed. No pet is too big or too small for me! I work Mon-Fri in downtown Chattanooga, but I am able to take an hour lunch break at any time to take pets on walks/feed etc. My house is pet free, and I have a fenced in back yard for your pet to run around and play in! I feel comfortable staying in your home as well and have provided that service for many years.

About: I have four pets of my own and know how challenging it can be to find care you can trust. I have experience taking care of cats and dogs of all ages, and am adept at giving medicines, walking, house sitting, and engaging play. I value your animals as I expect my sitters to value my own.! I am a teacher Monday-Friday during the school year from 7am-2:30 pm, but I am happy to do drop in visits before and/or after school during the week and on the weekends I have full availability. I do offer house sitting as long as any family is ok with their pet/s being alone during the day while I am at my other job. On the weekends they would have my full attention unless I am at a drop in. Summers I have wide open availability. I am happy to visit your pet as often and long as needed during those time frames. Because I have two large dogs of my own, I prefer to care for pets in their own homes. I provide feeding, walking, medicine-giving, litter box cleaning, stimulating play, and really any specific needs your pet may have.

“Kiara was available for us when our pet sitter quit last minute. We were across the country, and Kiara help ease the stress. We were having to have a friend help but thankfully Kiara was available to take over last minute the next morning. She made sure our dogs were taken care of sent adorable photos. She was thoughtful and always considered their well being. We would definitely use Kiara again!”

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: Hi! I’m a lifelong cat owner and dedicated animal lover with years of hands-on experience. I currently volunteer with animal shelters and have past experience working at a wildlife rehabilitation center. I’ve cared for cats with special needs, including those requiring medication, mobility support, and extra patience. I know how hard it is to leave your pet with someone new, so I bring calm, consistent, and genuine care to every visit. Your animal’s comfort and safety come first, always. I work freelance and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m often available for last-minute bookings, multiple visits per day, and daytime care during the week. I care for your pets with the same gentleness, patience, and respect I give my own; I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I understand how hard it can be to leave them, so I aim to be a calm, reliable presence and someone you and your pets can genuinely trust. My goal is for you to feel fully at ease, knowing they’re in kind and capable hands.

“Shelby was sweet and really dependable. She was over when she said she would be everyday (even on a holiday weekend), fed our cat, kept her company for a bit, and sent us a photo of her. My cat gets anxiety when we leave her and usually gets sick and ignores us for a few days once we return. None of that happened after this trip so our cat seemed to like Shelby and having her stop by too! Will definitely rebook with her the next time we go out of town.”


About: I’ve cared for pets my entire life! I’ve grown up in a house full of cats but we’ve also always made room for our dogs as well! I think I’m a great pet sitter because i’ve had plenty of experience caring for all animals alike. I’ve sat my aunts turtles and puppies, and my neighbors fish and reptiles. I can’t wait to get to know your babies! I’m currently working at a preschool part time but looking for another position. In the meantime I’d love to explore some of my other passions, one of those being pet care! right now my schedule makes me available anytime and when i do work for the school it’s from 2pm-6pm! All of your babies lives matter to me! I am fully committed to doing anything and everything I can to make sure your little one is safe and taken care of!

“Hal was great and very professional. His reports each day were very detailed and he made sure to acknowledge all instructions he was given. I truly appreciate him and will definitely book him again in the future!”


About: I’ve always been that friend that people ask to pet sit, I’m responsible, caring, and kind. I love all pets, and since I can’t have my own - I’ll spoil yours! I have the flexibility to meet your pet’s needs! Check-ins multiple times a day won’t be a problem, so your pet will always feel loved even in your absence. I love sending cute pictures of your pets while you’re gone for laughs and peace of mind! I’m not reckless, I understand the gravity of leaving your loved one in the care of someone else. It is a responsibility I take seriously.

About: I am an animal lover! Whether it be dogs or cats, I know they deserve the utmost care. I understand the love that animals bring into our lives, and I will do my absolute best to care for your babies! I’m currently on summer break, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your cats or dogs! I am available every day for drop in visits and dog walking. I’m also available for pet sitting at your home! I am available for that work Monday-Saturday. I currently do not offer boarding in my home. If that changes I’ll update this section! However in your home, I’ll strive to keep a calm environment with your pets. I can slowly get to know pets as need be. I also can show I’m there to care and play by playing or by tempting them with treats. 😊

“Maxie takes great care of my cats while I’m away! Highly recommend!”


“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!”

“Couldn’t be happier that we found Justin to hang with and care for our pup, Sango, and our two cats (Sushi and Nori). It’s a weight off our shoulders while out of town knowing that he is watching and caring for our pets.”


Kirstie C.
“I cannot recommend Kirstie highly enough as a dog sitter! She took exceptional care of my three dogs, each with very unique needs: a senior dog, an extra-large breed with medical issues, and a rambunctious puppy. Kirstie’s ability to manage and meet all their individual needs with patience, kindness, and expertise is truly remarkable. Our senior dog requires extra attention and comfort, and Kirstie made sure he was always well-cared for and comfortable, even during his slower moments. For our XL breed, who has medical issues, Kirstie demonstrated great responsibility and attentiveness, administering medications on schedule and keeping a close eye on his health. As for our puppy, Kirstie was full of energy and creativity, keeping him entertained while maintaining his training routine. I was impressed by how clean and organized everything was when we returned. She communicated updates regularly, sending us photos and videos that gave us peace of mind. It was clear how much she genuinely cares for animals, treating each of our dogs as if they were her own. If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and skilled dog sitter who can handle any challenge, Kirstie is the perfect choice!”


Journey F.Star Sitter

“Journey was great and took good care of my babies. I particularly liked all the great pictures she took, as well as her notes after each visit :)”


Janna A.

“Janna took great care of our cat while we were on vacation. It looked like they did all of his favorite things, according to the photos she capture during her visits. Thanks Janna!”


Robert K.
“Bobi is an extraordinarily reliable and responsible young man. When he makes a commitment, he sees it through no matter what because his word because his word equates to his honor. He is a lover of all animals and a caring individual who always helps to take care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats (a shared responsibility in our family). He has dog-sat for one of his friends routinely when she goes out of town and she will not trust anyone else with Milo's care. He would be a stellar caregiver to the animals and an unrivaled, committed resource for their humans.”


Jodi B.

“Jodi once again is fantastic. She arrives when she say she will and my shy cat has opened up to her so much. I feel comfortable knowing she is in Jodi's care while I'm away.”

Carley C.
“Carley is the best of the best!!! She takes care of our pups & home anytime we travel! Our pups absolutely adore her, and we have no worries anytime we leave them in her sweet care! She always keeps us updated on all the fun they are having while we are away. :)”


Bonnie F.
“Bonnie is my go to person when we are out of town… or in town. She has helped with all of our dogs (and cats) over the years. She has given my dogs medications, gone to our house for multiple feedings a day, and even brought my dogs to her place to watch them while we are on vacation. I know they are taken care of, safe, and comfortable with her. My skiddish Aussie isn’t even skiddish around her, which says a lot. 10/10 would recommend.”


Kiara C.
“Kiara was available for us when our pet sitter quit last minute. We were across the country, and Kiara help ease the stress. We were having to have a friend help but thankfully Kiara was available to take over last minute the next morning. She made sure our dogs were taken care of sent adorable photos.

Anna C.
“Anna has watched my dog while I was away on business trips a few times, for weeks at a time. She does an amazing job with him! She takes him on walks, on hikes, and also gives him cuddles at the end of the day and always sends me pictures to update! Princeton (my dog) now knows when we’re getting close to her place and gets so excited. We recommend Anna to anyone who asks!”


Erica C.
“Erica cares a lot about each animal she’s taking care of. She”s a very trustworthy, neat and organized individual who will spend the extra time with a pet that some people might not do. I would recommend her to anyone needing pet care.”


Shelby M.
Star Sitter


“Shelby was sweet and really dependable. She was over when she said she would be everyday (even on a holiday weekend), fed our cat, kept her company for a bit, and sent us a photo of her. My cat gets anxiety when we leave her and usually gets sick and ignores us for a few days once we return. None of that happened after this trip so our cat seemed to like Shelby and having her stop by too! Will definitely rebook with her the next time we go out of town.”


Tiffani m.
“Tiffani is probably the best pet sitter I've ever gotten by far. My dog Angus can be quite shy around strangers, but he opened up to her so quickly. There was absolutely no issues during my time away and she even mentioned that he started to lay and push on her which Angus rarely ever does to new people. I've had her back to watch him 5 or 6 more times since then and I have nothing but praise for the care she puts in for my furry guy. 5 stars all the way around!”


Hal M.

“Hal was great and very professional. His reports each day were very detailed and he made sure to acknowledge all instructions he was given. I truly appreciate him and will definitely book him again in the future!”


Pamela B.
“Pam took care of my cats when I was away in Europe and she did a great job! She’s good with dogs too, when we had one she was great at taking care of it when we were away. Highly recommend her, she’s very responsible!”


Laura H.
“Laura is an amazing pet caregiver. She has truly set a high standard for the love and attention to detail taking care of animals. Laura is punctual, professional, dependable and dedicated to her work. She is by far the best pet care giver we have ever hired. If you want the best pet care possible for your fur babies then I highly recommend Laura. She absolutely exceeded our expectations.”


Maxie C.

“Maxie takes great care of my cats while I’m away! Highly recommend!”


Zoey E.

“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!”
