“Brianna stayed with our two mastiffs while we were out of town for the weekend. When she arrived for the meet and greet I could tell by her calm and gentle demeanor that she was going to be the perfect fit for our large pups. Brianna made sure to check in prior to the visit and sent us two updates each day with plenty of photos to help us to know that things were going smoothly. We returned to a home with happy dogs that had been well kept by our house guest. She even left a thank note and a basket of goodies for us and our dogs. We could not have been more pleased with the service that Brianna provided and will definitely be using her again in the future. Thank you Brianna!”
“Keisha could not have done a better job. She sent really awesome pictures and kept in contact. My animals are sometimes stressed when I come home from traveling, and they weren't after Keisha kept them. I hope she'll watch them again. She is wonderful!”

About: I’ve grown up around multiple animals, having dogs and cats and other exotic animals. I also used to watch neighbor’s pets if they needed me to. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I am a college student who is always on the move and looking for new adventures to go on! I do not offer pet sitting in my own home due to living in an apartment with roommates, but depending on your living situation I always make it fun for the animal wether that’s playing outside or going on a walk.
“Kaylee was great with my three dogs. They all have very different personalities and can be a lot to handle, especially since two are weimaraners. She was highly communicative during our trip and I even saw behavioral improvements upon our return.”
“Anna is absolutely wonderful! Our cat, Bandit, is usually skittish around new people, but he warmed up to Anna very quickly. She was so good with him. She sent pictures every day with notes about how he was doing. We are so happy to have found her! She is delightful to be with, and we look forward to having her stay with Bandit again. In fact, when we came home to a clean house, Bandit looked at us like "ok, you guys are home, but where is my Anna?"”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, and I truly love them both. 🐶🐱 I treat every pet like family and I’m the type of sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with them — not just “checking in.” I’m patient, gentle, and very attentive to routines, and I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, and pets who need extra love and reassurance.

This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and lots of attention.

“We can not say enough WONDERFUL things about Bethany !! The boys seemed so very happy when we returned , almost like they didn't miss us. Bethany's attention to detail was amazing, she even noticed Guinness limping but figured out it was due to the chilly ground. Not to mention being a professional dog trainer, she really knows her puppies. Our home was left spotless, truly not enough good things to say about this amazing house sitter. The boys are looking forward to their "Bethany time" n March. Thank you Bethany for loving "the boys", You are a gem!! Paw Hugs from Guinness & Henry”

Cookeville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Keisha has been absolutely fantastic with my dogs. I was out of state for a week, and she kept me constantly reassured with tons of pictures and thoughtful updates the entire time. I had been using the same dog sitter for years, and when they recently retired, I was honestly pretty nervous about finding someone new. Keisha completely put those worries to rest. She’s reliable, caring, and clearly loves what she does. My dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable—and that means everything to me. I can confidently say I’ve found my permanent dog sitter. Highly recommend Keisha to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust.
Wendy is the best!!! I can trust her completely with my beloved pet and to take care of things whenever I have to pop out of town. She’s so flexible and accommodating, I cannot recommend her more highly. She has stayed on top of all my dogs feeding, treats, medications, everything.
Taylor was a god send for us. We had arranged for a previous sitter, not affiliated with Rover, who backed out about 10 days before our departure date. Having used Rover in the past, we conducted a quick search, found and met with 3 very qualified candidates. Taylor was the clear choice, and she was absolutely great. She and Lorelei, our soft wire dachshund, hit it off immediately. Taylor texted us and sent pictures while we were away. We would heartily recommend Taylor to anyone and will not hesitate to use her in the future.
Makenna is absolutely amazing! Our pets all loved her. Our cats are afraid of strangers, and always hide. By the second day, they were out letting her pet them. She sent lots of pictures and updates. She left the house spotlessly clean. We will DEFINITELY use her in the future!!
