“Margaret provided a safe and very quiet space for our anxious pup, Rio, while we explored Nashville on our cross country trip. We travel a lot, and Rio has been in a lot of Rover homes. Margaret’s setup was one of the better ones we’ve visited, and she had a good rapport with Rio. He slept for much of the day, which he doesn’t always do at Rover. That means he felt safe, secure, and at peace. We will book again the next time we’re in Nashville!”
“Olivia Benson’s tail starts wagging the second she sees her friend Monty (and Megan and Kerry, of course.) Thanks for always taking great care of our little girl!”
“Lauren was amazing! My dog and hers got along great and her yard is very secure. My dog was happy, fed, and extremely tired every night when I picked him up. Highly recommend!”
“Jonathan and Saori are wonderful caregivers for dogs! Our puppy was extremely well looked after, and calm and content when I picked her up. I trust them completely and look forward to using their services again.”
“Robin was so great!!! She really made sure that Thelma got all of the care and attention she needed and went the extra mile to ensure that Thelma got the right medical attention she needed when the time came. Any pet in Robin's care is very, very lucky.”
“Luigi had tons of fun at daycare today, thanks Ashley! Loved seeing all the pictures taken throughout his day and happy to hear he did well on his leash/walks too :)”
“Jonathan was absolutely the best! We could not have asked for a better, more thoughtful, or more knowledgeable person for our energetic Labrador. Jonathan took very good care of our dog, took him out on three walks during the day, and gave us good training tips. We highly recommend him!”
“Laura took great care of Alfie and updated us regularly with pictures and comments. He did great and is excited to be part of her “pack” again in the future!”
“Maureen is a great sitter. I knew was dog was safe when I left her with Maureen. She’s responsive and professional. My dog loves going back to her house as I’m a repeat customer of Maureen’s!”
“Ariana was great with my pup! She was flexible and accommodating, which I so appreciate. My pup came back tired and happy from daycare with Ariana and her pups, so I know she had a good time! Would totally recommend her to watch your kiddos!”
About: Hi, I'm Fernando! I love pets and am excited to spend time with yours! I've grown up around dogs my entire life and understand the importance of providing a safe and fun environment for them. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away, I'll care for your pets as if they were my own. My experience includes caring for dogs of different breeds, ages, and temperaments, so I’m comfortable adapting to each pup’s individual needs. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your dog. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I have a flexible remote work schedule and am available any day of the week. Feel free to reach out even if its last second! Before taking care of your pet, I will ask a few background questions such as your dogs routine, feeding schedule, exercise requirements, and and temper. This information will me and you pup have a great time without any hiccups. I live in a dog friendly condominium with dog parks and big fields nearby, and have one friendly dog of my own (mini poodle).
About: I'm newly home all day and want to help out folks who need someone who will truly care for their furry friend. I'm a dog lover and have two rescued doodles. They are both dog, cat, and kid friendly and can't wait to make new friends! My dogs get one walk a day, plus potty breaks in our yard, as needed. This is how I take care of our Rover friends, too. I do more walks when the Nashville weather isn't scorching! My priority is to provide the care that your dog needs. I have a fenced-in backyard and love all doggos. I can't wait to meet you!
“Toni is wonderful with Koda. She takes great care of him and he loves being at her home with her dog, Quincy! We always feel at ease when Koda is with Toni. Great communication and very caring. We appreciate her very much.”
“Emily took wonderful care of my fur baby, Sugar, while we were visiting Nashville. She has a large fenced yard where the dogs can play, and I appreciated the extra safety measures she took. Emily put Sugar’s collar on in addition to her harness in case she somehow got loose, which showed me she was thinking ahead and treating Sugar like one of her own. Before I left, Emily carefully introduced Sugar to the other dogs and made sure everyone got along and that Sugar was comfortable. That gave me tremendous peace of mind. I felt completely comfortable leaving my girl in her care, and it was obvious Sugar was well loved and well cared for while we were away. I would happily trust Emily with Sugar again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and conscientious pet sitter.”
About: Growing up, I was surrounded with pets and dogs of all breeds. I love all dogs and am currently raising my own Aussie Doodle who loves to have puppy friends around! Being a Dog Mom isn’t easy by any means, but I fully potty and house trained my pup Mocha. I work full time from home so I’m available all day to take care of any pet that stays with us. I also love being active, my own pup and I love to go on walks around the neighborhood & at centennial park! I work full time from home & I’m always available to tend to a pup’s needs. I can take pups for a walk in the morning + evening (avoiding the hot TN sun as much as possible!) as we live very close to Belmont & Centennial Park, with lots of space for pups to roam and explore! I have plenty of space for dogs to run and play around my house. Fair warning, our house does have a lot of stairs which may be more difficult on an older pup’s joints! For high energy and excited puppies, the stairs are great to get some exercise in if it’s too hot to go outside! I also always have lick mats or mental enrichment games on hand to keep a pup engaged throughout the day.
“Allison was great. I brought my dog to her place just for the day, but I was running super late and had to do a late pickup as well and she was super accommodating and understanding. Overall she was very kind and communicative. I received great photos and videos of my dog and he seemed to have a great time!”

Our second time using Rover and our second booking with Paris! We absolutely love Paris and Nova always has a blast. I don’t think either time she was ready to leave his home. Paris has helped us out both times on short notice! Would recommend Paris to any and all dog parents!
Alsacia was wonderful with my dog. At the meet and greet, I instantly felt comfortable when I saw how she carefully handled the first meeting between my dog and hers at the meet and greet. Annaleigh had a minute to sniff around and get comfortable before meeting a new dog in a new environment. My dog can be a little nervous in new places, but I could see that she was instantly comfortable. She came home from daycare happy. I could tell she had a great day

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Avondale commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,234 sitters in Avondale, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
