“Christina is a fantastic dog walker! She has a natural gift for working with rescue dogs and was incredibly patient with our shy pup. She has built a genuine, trusting bond with our dog, which has made all the difference in our daily routine. She is reliable, professional, and truly treats our pet like her own. We are so grateful to have found her!”


About: I am a big animal lover! I have helped care for family members pets my whole life. I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky. During college, I fostered dogs and volunteered through the Lexington Humane Society. This work was so fulfilling and allowed me to provide shelter dogs with socialization and get them adopted! I would love to hang out with your furry friend(s) while you are away! I just graduated from undergrad and willing be starting my Masters program in August. I am working at a kids summer camp for 4 hours/day M-F this summer, so I have lots of time to help fill in while you are at work, on vacation, or otherwise unavailable. Through my time with the Lexington Humane Society, I completed trainings that covered dog behavior, body language, socialization, basic training, and basic health info. This knowledge helps me provide the best support while I am working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and behaviors.

About: I’ve cared for every kind of pup in my lifetime— from potty-training puppies to sweet senior dogs, from tiny little nuggets to 200 lb gentle giants. Having owned two dogs myself and cared for dogs belonging to family and friends, I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I’ve provided trusted dog sitting and house sitting services, managing feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’m confident handling both high-energy dogs and calmer senior dogs, and I always prioritize safety, consistency, and communication. I don’t currently have a dog of my own, so every dog I meet gets to be “my dog” for a little while, and I treat them with the same care, attention, and love I would give my own. I just graduated college and am in between jobs, so I have plenty of time to care for your pup. My schedule is open and flexible enough to accommodate same day services. I currently cannot care for pets in my home; however, I’m happy to commute to a client’s home to provide care where pets are most comfortable and familiar. I always try to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible, focusing on creating a calm and dependable environment through consistent walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and companionship. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their pet is in good hands.

About: I'm a 10 year old cat mom and a dog auntie! I have taken care of both dogs and cats for years. I am familiar with giving animals, specifically cats, medicine (my cat has had urinary issues throughout the years) and I LOVE when my friends ask me to watch/play/walk their sweet doggies. I am currently working part time so my availability is very flexible. I work Wednesdays and Thursdays and have majority of the days open the remainder of the week. I respect boundaries and any specific notes that you have for your animals. They are a part of the family so when I enter the home I want them to feel safe and loved.
“Keegan is exceptionally gifted with animals. She bonded immediately with our Sheltie Dani, whom she walked all summer. In fact he looked for her first thing when he got out of his crate. Having grown up on a ranch, she has a wealth of information about animals. This proved extremely helpful because at just over a year old, Dani is still a puppy. She conscientiously told us anything unusual that he did, e.g. yesterday he surreptitiously ate a small rock, typical puppy behavior. She came back everyday with stories of Dani’s antics (he loves to chase dragon flies!), showing how she lets animals into her heart. Keegan is extraordinary. We hate to see her go back to college in OK. We and Dani look forward to more walks when she comes home from school at the holidays!”


About: Hi! My name is Sydney and I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy! I have grown up with cats and dogs and I have experience staying in other people’s homes to take care of their pets for an extended amount of time. I also have experience with walking dogs, whether they are well-trained or leash tuggers. I am able to be mindful of the boundaries of the pet owner and the pet themselves! Every animal deserves genuine love and quality care, and I am here to provide! I am currently not working as I am studying for the board exam to become a licensed physical therapist, so my schedule is very open! I am willing to work with your pet sitting needs! I am always attentive to the owner’s specific needs for their pet to make sure everyone is comfortable and cared for. I have a doctorate of physical therapy! I am a very trustworthy person as I take my patient’s health very seriously. I am here to care for all forms of life, big or small :)

“Thomas was amazing with my puppy & she gravitated towards him from when she first saw him. Beautiful spirit and grate with my baby. In grateful for the time you spent walking her for me. And I highly recommend.”

“Torey was fantastic! My wife and I were very anxious to leave our dog home for a two-week trip he couldn't join, but Torey put us right at ease with two meet-and-greets and plenty of updates and pictures. She was also very reachable through the app, which helped us feel comfortable being away. And she even watered our plants for us! Our dog and home were in great condition when we got back, and we're so grateful to Torey for making this as easy as possible for us. We definitely recommend her and will be reaching out next time we need a Rover!”

About: I’ve always been a caretaker for pets of family, friends or acquaintances who trust me fully to feed, bath and walk/ run their fur babies. I work a normal 8-4 everyday right down the street from where I live. Open to morning or evenings walks, even mid day checks in with the pet. I love to be active on weekends, especially if the weather is nice so getting outside with a pet is the perfect way! I live in a very animal friendly apartment, equipped with a fenced in dog park, washing station and many other amenities for the animal to explore. I also have the ability to crate the dog and provide it with lots of space and care.

“Ali was wonderful. She asked whether I wanted to do a meet and greet with the pups ahead of time, since I was going to be away for most of the time she was walking them. She also kindly helped clean one of my pups up when he had some digestive issues. She was kind, reliable and my pups were better off with her caring for them while I was away.”


About: I've had animals my whole life, ive taken care of cats, dogs and horses long and short term. I even lived on on a wildlife reservation in Africa to care for wild animals! I will do everything in my power to keep your animal safe, healthy, and happy. I am working as a musician so the daytime is going to be when Im available. The nights can sometimes work but that depends on the ever changing weekly schedule. I am fully committed to following any rules and guidelines the pet owner lays our. I do not currently have a place to host pets.
About: I have had dogs and cats all of my life and my dogs have all lived very long and healthy lives. I’ve adopted them and taken in strays, including one that was pregnant and then had 8 very healthy puppies which we cared for, weaned and found permanent homes for. Several of my dogs have lived very long senior lives (21!) and I can give medications and special diets. I’ve also transported many dogs, large and small, to the vet. I take my dogs to the dog parks on a regular basis and have taken them on long trips too. I am available to dog walk and also watch them in fenced-in yards for potty breaks and play. I produced several “Pet Care" series for HGTV, DIY Network and TNN, including dog care segments with Dr. Craig Prior, owner of Murphy Road Animal Hospital and a very popular and well-known Nashville veterinarian, who was also my personal vet for many years. I’m retired so I’m available all days and times. And I love taking photos and videos of pets and would be able to share updates for clients. I am currently retired and am available all days and times. I do volunteering on a regular basis but can adjust that schedule as needed. I also do freelance Marketing and Development including grant writing for nonprofits, on my own time schedule. I have a fenced-in back hyard for my own dogs but also take them on walks and to the dog park. So I would be able to walk dogs as needed. I also know about safety in a home, including keeping food, liquids, cleaners and materials away from pets. My own Beagle can get ninto things easily so I always put things up. My dogs do not use crates but I know how to crate dogs too.
About: If your pet needs more than the bare minimum, you’re in the right place. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule — meaning your pet gets real attention, not just quick check-ins. I currently care for a partially paralyzed dog, so I’m very comfortable with pets who need extra patience, monitoring, or help with routines. I also have a senior cat on a strict medication schedule, so I’m extremely reliable with timing and instructions. My home includes a fully fenced half-acre backyard, and pets staying here must be friendly with my sweet, playful pup who loves to run and explore outside. I work from home with a really flexible schedule so i can work my schedule around your pet’s needs. I wake up really early too so im available early if needed. I will respect your routines and instructions because I’ve been on the other side of this and i hope that my Rover’s treat my babies the same way. Lots of love and attention!
About: I absolutely love animals! My mom calls me the animal whisperer because every animal l meet loves me just as much. I believe it's because they know I'm a good person and they can trust me. Either way, your animal will be loved and looked after until their fur mom and fur dad gets home. I'm available all week 😄 you just let me know when you need me and I will be there for you and your fur babies ❤️ Unless the owner has a special way to care for their fur babies, then I just go with the flow. I do whatever makes their fur babies happy and have a great day while in my care.
“Konnor is extremely patient, understanding and gentle with my pup and myself! She welcomes honey with a beautiful warm smile which absolutely made a difference! I will absolutely return! 10/10!”

About: I am a caring and responsible dog sitter who truly loves spending time with dogs. Whether energetic or relaxed, I adapt to each dog’s needs and always treat them as if they were my own, providing love, attention, and a safe, comforting environment. Pet care fits really easily into my weekly routine because I work part time from home, so I have a flexible schedule and lots of time during the day. I love being able to take breaks to walk dogs, do drop-ins, or spend time hanging out with pets. I care for pets in their own home by closely following all directions and routines provided so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they’re fed on time, have fresh water, get walks or playtime, and any other care they need. I pay attention to each pet’s personality and go at their pace so they feel relaxed and happy. I also respect the client’s home, keep things clean, and always leave everything as I found it while making sure their pet feels loved and well cared for.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life so I love dogs (and even cats.) I professionally started walking dogs in college when I had extra time and developed a love for hanging out with animals and helping others when they can’t. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I have open availability to spend time with your furry friends! I would love to help someone out where I can. I will always love on your animals the way they like to be loved, whether that be just sitting with them or taking them on a long walk in the neighborhood.

About: I am a disabled Vet that loves pups and can handle all of their needs. I love the outdoors so your pup will constantly have an outlet. I will help your pup expend some of its energy while you're at work or whatever your day entails. I love small dogs, but I am also large and strong enough to handle your larger pups with ease. I grew up kenneling animals as a family owned business, so I definitely can handle anything thrown at me. I am very flexible with times and understand if you're running late or if you need to drop off your pup early. My phone is on at all times so if you need to call and check in that's fine. I also will FaceTime. Any questions feel free to ask me anything. I work solely from home and I work at my own time so being able to take your pup out for walks and play time is easy, and quite fun for me as well/ I have a big yard to play in and a huge park nearby as well. I also use apple tags on my pups. It is always better to be safe.
Donelson Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ian is a very competent dog walker. He’s an advocate for the pet and my dog JB so far has loved these first couple of adventures! From a human perspective I feel grateful having a little extra time to help my husband after his recent knee replacement surgery. Thank you, Ian!

Ashlee was absolutely fantastic. She was professional and clearly cared about my dog. Communication was great from start to finish, and I felt completely confident knowing my dog was in good hands. It’s obvious she takes her work seriously and goes above and beyond. I’ll definitely be booking with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality care.

Andrea did a fantastic job taking care of my dog Lucy during the Thanksgiving holiday. She’s by far the best dog sitter I’ve had. Her communication was great, lots of videos and updates. If you have a dog or cat that has anxiety and doesn’t like it when you’re away, Andrea will have that healing touch. I highly recommend!

Keegan is exceptionally gifted with animals. She bonded immediately with our Sheltie Dani, whom she walked all summer. In fact he looked for her first thing when he got out of his crate.

We hate to see her go back to college in OK. We and Dani look forward to more walks when she comes home from school at the holidays!
