About: I have grown up in a home with four dogs and one cat, giving me hands-on experience caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, cleaning up after pets, and providing plenty of attention and affection. As a Division I student-athlete, I am responsible, dependable, and committed to following routines to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am highly organized and responsible with my time. During the summer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care, including walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays when needed. I am committed to communicating with pet owners and ensuring their pets receive consistent care and attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Having grown up with four dogs and one cat, I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special requests from owners. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.

About: I have worked with newborn to senior pets since I was five years old, and I am a very active person that enjoys playing with furry friends. I plan on working in healthcare in the future so I prioritize caretaking. I am taking one online college course during the summer and I am a part-time tutor so I will have a lot of free time this summer for pet sitting! In my home, pets have a clean, cozy space, regular walks or playtime, and lots of love and attention. I keep routines consistent and follow any instructions you provide. In your home, I will respect your space, stick to your pet’s usual schedule, and make sure they feel secure in their own environment. I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away!

Leigh- Ann has been great. She was so good we hired her for a second week. Bella, our boxer, has quickly adapted to her. I would highly recommend Leigh-Ann to anyone who is interested in a new dog walker!

About: I’v taken care of dogs since I was old enough to be responsible for them, around age 12. I was in charge of feeding our family dogs, walking them, and exercising them through intentional playtime. We had 3 dogs then, and now we own two. I enjoy going on long walks and hikes, and often take my dogs on hikes. I also enjoy a casual run, and I am happy to take dogs on runs as well! I just graduated from college, and I have a couple weeks available until I begin my job. I will start working as a Firefighter for the Franklin fire department on June 8. Once that starts, I will be available on most weekends and evenings to care for your pet! I am happy to walk or run your pet! I also offer pet-sitting. As a responsible student, with several years of families trusting me with babysitting, I can give you confidence that your home and pet will be cared for as if they were my own.

About: I love animals, I have since as long as I can remember. I was born and raised in an animal household so understanding animals, communicating with them, and tending to them has become second nature. I have pet sat and helped handle animals at the Nashville Zoo as a volunteer during my high school years and have watched over friends, family, and neighbors animals for around a decade now. I know how important family is and how pets are family that just so happens to walk on four legs for all of their lives instead of just their infant years. I am currently on staff at my church right now as outreach and ministry team so my times I am unavailable are Tuesday's, Thursday's, and Friday's after 5:00pm. I go to church on Sunday mornings but I can always watch virtually so I can tend to pets overnight. I care for animals as I would care for myself I believe in all life is precious and that any life created is family to me which most certainly includes pets. My approach comes from being gentle, reacting/reading body language, minding my emotions and actions because animals are sensitive to those, and just showering them with love the way THEY want to receive it not how I want to give it. It is their comfort and wellbeing over mine and I will do everything in my power to ensure a healthy environment for everybody's animals.

About: I’ve worked in a vet's office and taken care of pretty much all animals over the years. I grew up showing horses competitively on a small farm with chickens, ducks, cattle, rabbits, pigs, dogs, and cats. Since then I’ve owned and cared for miniature donkeys, standard poodles, Weimeraners, Dalmatians, cats, and chickens. As long as it’s not a reptile, I’m game. I love those who need something extra that your normal pet sitter may not be comfortable with - and I also love all the others who don’t need anything special! I have an extremely flexible schedule and can work around pretty much whatever you need. One thing’s for sure - I will be honest with you. If I can’t do it, I will tell you. I will come to your home and care for your pets just as you do! I don’t need a pre-visit (unless you would like that) - you can show me by FaceTime or you can leave me a note. I am also more than happy to have a pre-visit! I like to communicate with you while you’re away so you know how things are going at home.

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was at least 12, and have watched and walked dogs from Great Danes to Chihuahuas. I've done many overnight sits, and am able to house sit as well as pet sit. I love to offer pets the best care possible by spending quality time with them and giving them all the love they deserve. Pets have always been around in my family so I know the importance of truly treating and loving them like family. I am a hard working, loving, and thoughtful caregiver that will make your pets feel like you never left. I recently moved to Portland and am looking to save up for graduate school during my gap year. As long as I know a day or more in advance, I am willing to help out whenever needed. I only give the most respectful care that has been asked of me, and can perform any job from walking outdoors or simply being company for your pet! The care is built on love and attention that I know my pets would want from their caregiver.

Shannon is great, responsive, timely and kind. She made time to meet my baby and was patient with her. If they had more time together they would have been besties. Unfortunately our schedules didn’t out for weekly walks. However she still took time out of her day when I needed her to come and walk her. I was very grateful for that. I highly recommend Shannon, she will take great care of your babies.

Ashley was our first experience with Rover and I’m thrilled we found her! I was slightly nervous to leave her dog Lilly with a stranger because she has always travelled with us or known who was watching her. Ashley was in constant communication with me, taking the time to learn about our dog. We received several photos and know that Lilly was well cared for! Thank you Ashley! We can’t wait to rebook with you!

About: I have dog & puppy sat for clients, friends and family over the last 12 years. I love dogs & know playtime & regular exercise is essential to their health but not everyone has the time to help them get as much as they may need. This is where I come in! Whether it's just walks, overnight stays or puppy playtime I'm your girl. I started out my care of animals volunteering at an animal shelter in the Bay Area. I went there to adopt an animal and it broke my heart to see all of the dogs locked up in cages all looking up out of their cages with their sweet puppy dog eyes hoping they could be given a second chance & taken home with you. I wanted to take them all home! I then made it my primary mission to begin volunteering numerous times a week walking as many dogs as I could. Most of them I had to walk individually for safety reasons so it was quite the exercise regime for me but I loved knowing I could get them out for some playtime & extra attention they so deserved, especially not knowing what their fate would be. From then on I decided to also pick up extra work in addition to my full time job being a caretaker for all pets, my passion truly lies with animals and I find it very therapeutic in so many ways, bonding with animals of all different kinds but above all... dogs☺️ I work part time teaching pilates and my partner works from home so we provide constant care and attention. My schedule allows frequent breaks to attend to the dogs with walks, potty breaks and bonding time with other dogs There’s a dog park and trails at our apartment complex and the dog will be with us at all times. With dogs who are reactive on leash I always ensure to create a safe distance from other dogs and do not let dogs off leash unless in an enclosed space

I will be going into my freshman year of college at Lipscomb University, so I will have a lot of free time to see any and all animals! I always follow every rule provided about your animal. I know the importance of routine, comfort, and stability. I will ensure each pet gets the adequate exercise, food, and love desired by the owner.

Whether it’s a cuddly cat, or energetic dog, I tailor the approach to suit their unique needs, providing you with peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Fun fact I used to be afraid of animals until I was about 12. Now I have 4 cats and have owned 6 dogs over the years. I have trained 3 of them to a basic degree and also own a snake. I love animals of all kinds and more often than not they warm up to me instantly! I am interested in summer work during the off season and am available most days almost anytime with some exceptions. I prefer mornings to mid afternoons but am very flexible! Standard house sitting includes overnight care plus daytime absences up to 4–8 hours depending on the pets’ needs. I also offer constant care for houses and pets for a custom rate depending on the individual and pets schedule! Since I have 4 cats and a human I cant board pets at home. But I have no issues staying over a night if needed, and can easily House-sit, Dog-sit, and Cat-sit in the greater Franklin area! I can feed, play, walk, provide potty breaks, and even teach dogs a trick or two.
