“Gabe was available last minute. Our sweet dog JB was excited to meet him and go on a walk. Gabe did a nice job giving JB some much needed exercise. For a first time, last minute meeting, everything went well.”
“Riley and Victoria have been great from day 1. They walk our puppy twice a day and always leave good, detailed notes about how each walk went. They are very patient with her as she is not great on a leash yet and easily excitable by other dogs. So happy I found them through Rover!”
About: I love dogs. I have had my own for the past 6 years and have done a ton of dog sitting since I moved to Nashville. I have cared for all types of dogs, from puppies to seniors and everything in between. I am very active and love to go on walks or play tug. I am communicative with dog owners when they are away. I would absolutely love to watch your dog. I work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule so your doggies needs will come first. Whatever schedule your dog is used to is what I will follow. I think it's really important to keep a dog's "normal" consistent when the owner is away. I will follow what the dog is used to so that they feel comfortable and aren't overwhelmed by the changes with their owner being gone.
About: I love caring for animals and discovering their unique personalities. My whole life I’ve always had a cat or dog living with me, whether it be mine or my roommates. Making sure they know they are loved and safe is my top priority. I am an Assistant Director in the film and Television industry, during my downtime between jobs I have an ample amount of time in my days. With dogs I work hard to build a level of trust between me and the pup. Consistency and repetition is key for me. Each dog is different so it takes some effort to get to understand them.
“Shelby was so amazing with my mama’s boy of a bully-boxer baby! He can be a stubborn one but he surely adored her! And she captured some adorable photos on their walk ?. Will definitely book her again ⭐️”
“Abby is great and our pup absolutely adores her! We would be lost without her help. She is a great communicator and is extremely reliable. We are so thankful for her!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years, and one thing I always prioritize is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s overnight stays, playtime, walks, or just relaxing at home, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, so I make communication a priority. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know how your dog is doing 🤍 I keep a calm, clean, and safe environment and only take a limited number of dogs at a time to make sure each one gets plenty of attention and care. I’ve worked with dogs of all personalities and will always adjust to your dog’s needs, routines, and energy level to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I’m a full-time dental student with a consistent schedule, which allows me to provide structured care. I also come home during lunch and dedicate my evenings and weekends fully to pet care. I’ll follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I live in an apartment, so we do not have yards. However, we have a dog park on the property and lots of local parks for some fun and good exercise.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs for most of my life and now have a beautiful pit mix who I wish I could bring everywhere. (But when I visit your pets, mine will stay at home!) I’m happy to treat your crew with the love I wish my dog always received and the responsible care all pets need. I’m a freelancer, so I often have the flexibility to meet your schedule needs and maintain that schedule week after week so your pets are greeted by a consistent visitor and friend. I’m happy to visit your pets, let them out as needed, go for walks, administer meds, feed them, and if needed crate them so they’re cozy and safe before I leave.

About: Always been the go to dog sitter for my friends and family! Have a sweet pup of my own (Lola) and she gets along great with other dogs and she loves having a friend around! Weekday afternoons are great for drop in visits as my afternoons are free! Weekends are best for overnight stays since that is when I am home the most! I live in an apartment but in a very walkable area so lots of walks and time at the park! My dog has a lot of energy so able to make sure your dog is exercised well if that is needed!
About: I have grown up with dogs & cats my entire life. I was living with my dogs before two passed and one currently lives with my family back home. As of now it is just my kitty, me, and my friends dogs when they stop by for a visit. I have taken care of puppies and senior dogs who required special care including injections and other medical needs. Would do anything for pets & now how much joy they bring. Work during the day but am free during the weekends & most week evenings. I am able to move my week schedule around as needed. I live in a house with my cat who has been around other dogs her whole life. My home includes a large fenced yard for doggies to run around.
“Stephanie is phenomenal! She has great communication, is flexible, informative of my pup’s performance on their walks and time together, and includes uplifting photos of my pup, which means a lot as I love my pup Tucker so much. Stephanie is 5 stars!”
About: I have been caring for cats, dogs, and other animals for over 20 years, and have experience with pets of all ages and personalities — from playful kittens and puppies to sweet senior companions. I also have volunteer experience at an animal shelter caring for small animals, including rabbits, guinea pigs, and mice. I especially gravitate toward animals who may be shy, nervous, or need extra time to feel comfortable. I’ll create a safe, loving environment for your pet ❤️ and give every pet the attention, respect, and care they deserve while their family is away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I enjoy having animals in my life and make time to provide attentive, reliable care. I am able to plan my schedule around visits and walks, ensuring that each pet receives the time, attention, and consistency they need. I understand that pets thrive on routine, and I will make sure to follow their normal schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from their family. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in the place they know best, surrounded by their own smells, routines, and comforts. I provide care in my clients’ homes and take the time to learn each pet’s personality and needs. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, provide loving attention and companionship, and keep you updated with photos and notes so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.
