About: I’ve spent all of my life with a passion for animals and grew up taking care of pigs for 4-H and FFA as well as riding and caring for about 16+ horses since I was 10 years old. I took veterinary college accredited classes in high school and have owned and cared for 3 dogs over the years. Unfortunately I am allergic to cats but I can take care of them in your home if needed. I’m currently a stay at home mom with a baby on the way in September. I’m am always at home unless I’m out grocery shopping or out at dinner with my fiancé. So I have plenty of time to care and love on your fur baby and make them feel right at home! I have no pets in the home currently and I would only be able to take your dog on walks and around the property to use the restroom as we have no fenced in yard currently. They will be inside most of their stay. When pet sitting at your place I can most of anything that is needed. I do not have a crate available at my house currently so if you would like your baby in a crate or kennel, you would need to supply that as well.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages and breeds! I’m very reliable for feeding, walking, and maintaining a safe play environment for your pup! We will be able to go on walks up and down the neighborhood or to local dog parks! I currently only work 2 days at the beginning of the week and am typically home the rest of the time! Your fur baby will be allowed to hang out in my house alone or in their kennel, if preferred! When I am not home, my partner is and has years of pet experience as well! I have 4 super friendly pups that love playing with other dogs in our fenced-in backyard! They are all currently caught up on all vaccinations.

“Lydia cared for Lou twice a day, sent me pictures each visit to confirm her being there without me asking for that. Even came early before a storm one day so Lou didn’t have to go out in the rain. Communication was great so I recommend!”

“Sophie is wonderful! She is very organized, patient, and a great communicator. She took care of my 3 cats, all with different temperaments. She made sure they had food, water, treats, a clean litter box, and played with them. 10/10 would hire again and would reccomend.”

About: I am such an animal lover, and I like to think they love me too;) I have owned dogs my whole life and recently adopted a cat, Willow! I’m excited to meet and care for your pets:) I am a student at Middle Tennessee State University with classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This means I am available often for your pets! I am very attentive of my animals (currently one dog and one cat). I feed them on a consistent schedule and let the dog out every two-three hours. I also provide them with lots of attention, whether they would prefer to be in my skin (my dog) or relax in the same area without touch (my cat). I can be very adaptive to any animals’ needs!

About: My family has raised dachshund puppies my entire life. Our current babies are 12 and 5 yrs old. Dachshunds are known as a challenging breed but ours have always been angels. I have a schedule that is mostly open during the afternoons everyday. Wednesdays and Thursdays, I have fullday and nighttime availability. My schedule is flexible if necessary. We have a fenced in yard and decking that our pets prefer but i have taken them on walks around our neighborhood for enrichment and nail trimming. Dachshunds can be anxious so they tend to prefer the comfort of our home.

About: I have such a passion for animals and for doing something I love and care about. I am a fur lover who thinks that every animal deserves the best life. I do have a little weakness for giving treats so please let me know any dietary restrictions prior to my arrival. Having animals my entire life I am not hesitant to look or care for other creatures as well, anything from Guinea Pigs to actual pigs. If you have any additional questions about my sitting style or my personal preferences please do hesitate to ask! Hope to hear from you soon Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I prioritize making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved, whether it’s through regular visits, playtime, or just being there to provide companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate the time needed to ensure your pets routine stays consistent, so they always feel safe and secure. Safety, trust, and comfort are at the core of my pet care approach. My home is fully pet-proofed, with no exposed wires, harmful plants, or small objects that could be swallowed, ensuring a safe environment for your pet. I’m on a floor level with no stairs, offering easy access, and my fenced-in yard provides a secure space for outdoor play, with a screen door to let in fresh air while keeping your pet safe inside. All doors and windows are securely locked, with childproof locks where needed, to prevent any accidental escapes. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR, with an emergency kit ready and a plan in place for any unexpected situations. Daily health checks allow me to monitor your pet’s well-being, while regular updates and photos keep you informed, so you can trust that your pet is safe and happy. If transportation is needed, I use pet-friendly, secure carriers or harnesses to ensure safe travel. For homes with multiple pets, I provide separate feeding and resting areas to avoid conflicts and ensure each pet’s comfort. Finally, I maintain a clean and hygienic environment, regularly sanitizing feeding areas, toys, and bedding, so your pet always has a healthy space to relax in.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, when we adopted a stray that was pregnant. Throughout Sweetie’s pregnancy, birthing, and weening, and our raising of her puppy Zorro, my mom taught me all about dogs, since her dad used to breed pugs and cavalier King Charles spaniels. Before Sweetie came to us, I had been wanting another dog, as our previous golden retriever, Jasmine, had been stolen. So, my mom bought me several books on all the different dog breeds, so I could educate myself on what to expect and what I wanted when we got our next dog. I learned so much throughout this time, and have only continued my education and experience with dogs. I love dogs so much that sometimes it feels like my heart is going to explode out of my chest. Every dog I meet, no matter how old, will always be a puppy to me. I sometimes think that the closest we will ever get to experiencing a physical manifestation of the love of God, is the love dogs have for us. I’m self-employed and currently don’t have any pets, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m happy to work with your schedule and your dog(s) routines! Noting and being aware of any specifications, such as meds, their usual routine/schedule, unique preferences, and any special requests the owner has made. Consistency is so important in maintaining mental health and stability for your pets!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Dowelltown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 763 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dowelltown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dowelltown. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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.
