“Dannie was beyond exceptional. They made me and my dog feel well taken care of. It was my first time leaving Penny alone for the weekend and she may have had more fun with Dannie than she does with me. Will 💯 book with them again! Thank you Dannie!”
“Lexi was amazing! Ozzy is very particular about who watches her but she gave Lexi no problems at all! She gave me updates and photos of Ozzy throughout the days which I very much appreciate as someone who doesn’t like to leave their dog behind and misses her very much. Lexi was also able to work with me last minute as I had a previous sitter fall through very last minute. I would recommend Lexi to anyone who needs a sitter!”
“Nicole is awesome!!! She took excellent care of my dog & my house and sent me pictures and messages to let me know how my fur baby was doing. I felt very comfortable leaving town for a week and knowing Nicole was caring for Kenli. I highly recommend Nicole and I will definitely have her care for Kenli again!!! Thank you Nicole!!”
“April was absolutely wonderful, and we would happily book with her again. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she was reliable, professional, and easy to work with. What impressed us most was how quickly she built a connection with Lou. It was clear that she genuinely cares about dogs and made Lou feel comfortable right away. We felt completely confident leaving Lou in her care and would highly recommend April to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Christopher was an amazing sitter for my dog. Very attentive, kept me updated, and kept the place super clean. My dog was still adjusting to his new routine and he kept it up, and kept me updated throughout the stay. Would definitely book him again! Thank you again so much! :)”
“Elyssa was wonderful! I received daily pictures and updates as to how my animals were doing. And I appreciated both. It made my vacation much more relaxing, not to have to worry about my babies while I was gone. I would highly recommend Elyssa and I will be using her again.”
“Melissa was the BEST! She got our shyest kitty out of hiding with her kindness and patience. She has such a calm demeanor that made our dog and 2 cats fall in love with her! She went above and beyond to send pictures, updates, and make our babies feel loved while we were out of town!! Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Austin was great with Mara! He sent detailed updates and great photos. She also had an ear infection and he was on top of giving her meds as well. Will definitely use him again.”
“Aubrey was great with our lab mix who is a very particular and anxious pup! She also had to give our dog antibiotics while we were gone as well. Aubrey sent tons of pictures and updates everyday so I was never left wondering how she was doing. Would definitely recommend to everyone and have Aubrey back again to watch our pup!”
About: Hi! I’m a dog mom who takes pet care seriously and understands that every pet has unique needs. I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog, including daily walks, enrichment, supplements, medications, special feeding routines, and monitoring changes in behavior or health. I’m especially knowledgeable about caring for small dogs and pets with mobility concerns. Through caring for my own dog, I’ve learned the importance of preventative care, safe exercise, elevated feeding setups when appropriate, joint health support, and following veterinarian recommendations closely. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, whether that means preparing bone broth toppers, adding supplements, maintaining medication schedules, monitoring food intake, or sticking to a specific routine. I know that small details matter when it comes to keeping pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. Communication is important to me, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes while you’re away. My goal is simple: to provide the same level of care, attention, and peace of mind that I’d want for my own dog. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, a senior who needs a little extra support, or somewhere in between, they’ll be treated like family. I’m currently searching for full-time work opportunities, so I and have daily availability to spend great outdoors time with your pup at any time of day. Safety comes first in everything I do. I carefully follow feeding routines, medication schedules, supplement instructions, exercise restrictions, and any veterinarian recommendations provided by owners. I’m especially attentive to pets with mobility concerns, senior pets, or pets with special routines. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, hydration, and overall well-being and will communicate regularly so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away.
“My dogs were well cared for with Sophie while we were away, as was my apartment! Sophie cleaned up after her stay and even put our grocery delivery away for us which we did not ask her to do. My dogs had a wonderful time, thank you Sophie!”
About: Hi everyone, I’m Bre! I tried Rover briefly back in 2022 before becoming a full-time foster dog mom. I’m excited to give it another try! I work a normal Monday-Friday office job but I work next door to my apartment community! So I can walk over to take dogs on walks multiple times a day. My fiancé works from home so he will be there all day as well. Pets are my favorite roommates! I live in a beautiful apartment community that’s full of dogs. I do have permission to dog sit from management! Dogs are welcome to free roam my apartment
“Another great stay for my dog with Lindsey! Lindsey was right on time with arrival and departure and my house was clean and my dog well cared for. I love the pictures Lindsey sends me letting me know my dog is happy.”
“Lizzie is the best! Our dogs ADORE her, even our shy dog! They are always overwhelmingly happy with her and she gives the best updates. She is an amazing house guest. We will keep using Lizzie as long as she does not get sick of us!”
“Krystol watched our puppies and house while we navigated a really difficult family health emergency. She was communicative and flexible and took amazing care of our pets and home. I’d recommend her to anyone!”
“Sarah is always reliable and this trip, even though she got extremely sick, she kept us in the loop and received support instead of leaving our very sick cat who needs a house sitter instead of just drop ins. It was very scary to be far away with no backups, but Sarah hung in there and took care of our baby despite how sick she was.”
About: I’ve been caring for my family’s pets since I was 6 years old, and my love for dogs has only grown from there. Over the years, I’ve become the trusted sitter for friends and family when they go out of town, work long days, or need an extra hand. I genuinely treat every pet like family — I even call my friends’ dogs my nieces and nephews. I’m patient, attentive, and loving, and I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible since I’m no longer tied to a traditional 9–5. I have plenty of availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they get the attention, care, and consistency they’re used to. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for a walk or drop-in visit, I’ll make sure they feel secure, loved, and well cared for. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, leash safety, medications, house rules, and any special details that help your pet feel at ease. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“I would leave 3 stars but maybe I should've been more clear about my expectations. I assumed "house sitting" meant stay at my house and spend time with my dog as I would if I were there. In this case it seemed more like several drop-ins and an overnight that started around 11pm. I have a porch security camera that showed the sitter coming in for an hour or 2 then leaving for many hours. My dog spent more time in his crate than out. Again, I didn't voice my expectation so I would just encourage others to have a very in depth conversation beforehand. Lesson learned.”
“Marge was amazing! She house sat and pup sat my little Rosco - who I have not left since I adopted him. She was great with communication and I never once worried that he wasn't being loved on or taken care of. Would definitely book with her again!!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Cumberland Heights is $55

Sophie immediately put my dogs at ease. Not only did she make sure their basic needs were met, she made sure they were thriving. I was a little worried one of them was going to trade me in for her. 🤣 she was also fantastic at communicating with me through out her stay, sending a lot of pics and asking questions/sending status updates. Sophie will be my go-to pet sitter from here on out!
Cashmere was a great fit for my big dog and our family. She came by ahead of time to meet our pup and get comfortable with his routine and her surroundings which was great. I received pictures and updates throughout our trip and she did a good job of pivoting in the crazy heat to play more n the backyard vs take him on longer walks which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend her without hesitation.
Jericho took excellent care of our two dogs and gave us regularly updates on how they were doing. She also kept our plants alive and maintained our house while we were out of town. She is very kind and I will definitely be booking with her again to watch our dogs.
Grayson is such an amazing dog sitter for our pups! We have booked her 3 times. We truly trusted that they were in great hands and being loved and cared for everyday! She sends lots of updates which is SO appreciated and my dog was so happy to see her again! Will definitely book with her again in the future!
Aubrey did such a great job taking care of my dogs and house-sitting during a recent trip. She was very responsive and communicative throughout, and shared lots of pictures and updates. I’m new to Nashville and I’m really happy to have found a dependable sitter here for my dogs when traveling away. Thanks Aubrey!
Lia & Jacob were super communicative and took great care of our pups. We were really nervous about leaving them for an extended weekend but they were so kind in answering any and all questions that we had. We’re extremely grateful that our dogs and our home were taken care of like they were their own.
I had a fantastic experience with Dannie when I needed help with daytime animal care for my cat and dog. Dannie was responsive, easy to communicate with, sent periodic updates throughout the day and left the house in great shape - couldn’t ask for more. Looking forward to working together again!
Joey watched Doug and Harley for 16 days and did an awesome job. Both boys loved him right away. Communication the whole time was great, always kept me in the loop. What really stood out was when Doug seemed hurt, Joey noticed quick and let me know right away instead of waiting. That's exactly the kind of person you want watching your dogs. Would 100% hire him again.
We cannot recommend Riley and Victoria enough! They watched our two dogs for an entire week, and from the moment we left, we knew our babies were in the best hands. They checked in frequently with updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear how much they genuinely care for animals, and our dogs were happy, comfortable, and loved the entire time. Coming home, we were amazed to find the house absolutely spotless, everything was clean, organized, and exactly as we left it (if not better!). Finding people you can fully trust with your pets is rare, and we can honestly say we wouldn’t trust our babies with anyone else. Riley and Victoria went above and beyond, and we are so grateful for the incredible care they provided.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cumberland Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Cumberland Heights on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,523 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cumberland Heights. 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 Cumberland Heights 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 Cumberland Heights 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 Cumberland Heights 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
