“This is the second time Maddie has stayed at our home and watched our energetic puppy. She stayed in touch with us and even sent us a photo. She is professional, kind, and loves our dog. She will be here a few more times this year.”

About: I have cared for a variety of different animals with 3 cats and 1 dog of my own. I have volunteered at animal shelters to help take care of those pets as well. I am very flexible and confident in my ability to meet each pet's needs. I have taken care of animals at different points in their lives, from kittens/puppies to elderly animals. I am currently a part-time teacher, so I would be able to use my days off to take care of any needs the pets might need! I have a friendly dog that can be company to your furry baby. I am responsible, dependable, and able to take care of any challenge that might be encountered.

About: Hello! If you choose me to take care of your dog, you will be choosing someone who loves other dogs as much as her own. My three are properly spoiled, loved, and yours would get the same treatment or as you require. I have owned dogs since I was very young as well as an exotic pet for over a year. I work in Nashville and live in Wilson County so I am open early mornings and after work hours in those areas. For housesitting, weekends are the optimal period for the most socializing for your dog(s)! Please feel free to ask any questions about myself. i can also provide references for those I have house sat and taken care of their dogs for recently. Thank you for visiting my page Shelby C. I don’t usually have plans after work so I usually go to work and directly come home. Weekends are always free so why not also do Housesitting to fill that in. I am detailed oriented so kid your furry one requires particular steps in their daily life, I have experience in following very detailed plans and can provide references from those people.

About: I have practically always had animals be apart of my life. I grew up with a stray cat who would become my own cat at a young age. And I would often take care of my grandmothers dog named Socks in both their old age. I once rescued a baby bird and even a baby deer more recently. I’ve looked after pets of family and friends and friends of family and friends. I currently own a cat named Chance, and my job for about 3 years is a dog daycare and board which also provides grooming services such as baths, nail trims, etc. I hold a huge spot in my heart for animals and I foresee myself always doing something with them. I work part time, so I typically have a lot of free time to explore other ventures. And with me also having the full weekend to myself, it would be great to spend that time taking care of pets. At the moment, I live with my parents and pet sitting there couldn’t happen given my mom is afraid of dogs, but if I were pet sitting in a clients home, I would be more than respectful and appreciative of the trust.

FAQs for House Sitting - Chestnut Mound

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 179 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Chestnut Mound. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Chestnut Mound 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 Chestnut Mound 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.

Tip: 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 Chestnut Mound 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!

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.

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
