“Great experience- kept our cats on their routine and sent pics! Was flexible about our return time changing and made sure to check in after our return. Highly recommend Karen!”
“I highly recommend Adriana to anyone. She is trustworthy and takes care of our pets, like they were her own. She also makes herself available on short notice, like when we had a death in the family and had to fly out the next day. She follows instructions very well and makes sure that the dogs and cat get fed and goes potty on scheduled times. She also makes sure to send us updates and photos of our fur babies every day or if they try to do something funny. She always stays with us in our house to take care of them and she makes sure she spends her available time with them if she's not at work or at school. Adriana- we are so grateful for you. Thank you for loving and taking care of our girls. You are highly trusted by our family and we are so happy we found you on Rover.”
“Madison was great! She was very accommodating and took good care of my cats while I was away. I appreciated her quick communication and she sent a lot of pictures of her visits, so I was kept very up to date about my babies. Thanks Madison!!”
“We appreciate Corrie’s kindness and care of Maddie. She went out of her way to schedule a meet and greet and make sure she knew what we needed. Highly recommended!”
“Yunyi was GREAT! She was on-time to her check-ins and always sent pictures of my kitty! She left detailed notes about every visit and gave me peace of mind with leaving my kitty. This was my first time using Rover, but it will not be the last. I will always check with Yunyi first when booking, she is amazing!”
“Blaise was wonderful! She came for drop-in visits twice a day for three days to take care of our new puppy, Tater. She was incredibly reliable and sent updates and feedback, which gave us so much peace of mind. I could tell Tater was well cared for and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We are so thankful for the care she gave our new baby and would absolutely use her again. I highly recommend Blaise!”
“Haley took great care of my two dogs on drop-in visits. Her attention to detail and communications were excellent. She’s clearly a pooch lover, and my dogs took to her immediately.”
“Neha was great, she was so communicative about how our pets were doing and took great care of them. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter who will not only take care of your pets, but also your home. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was around!”
“Jenna is really good and experienced dog sitter, Rocky our pet dog loved her company and care, she made sure rocky is comfortable and ensured he got all the care needed while we were away. Thanks to her experienced care and service”

About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life and my enjoyment for being active alongside a fur friend has extended into my now Dad years! Specialize in big dogs as I know from personal experience of having a 60lb+ pup that they can be a handful sometimes. I started this service 3 years ago as a stay at home dad with my 1yo daughter in tow. Now that she’s off to full-time school I’m more available during the midday each week. I treat each dog I help care for in the same way that we treat our own, while following your instructions for what’s best for your pet. I enjoy taking them for some exercise, belly rubs, enrichment and making sure they have all the snacks they need.
“Chrislyn was conscientious and took excellent care of our cat. Smudge normally hides from pet sitters, but was always willing to come out and see Chrislyn. I appreciate her timeliness and consistency. Thank you!”
“Alexandrea did a fantastic job with my sweet kitty. I appreciated the pictures she sent through Rover and the attention she paid to my sweet girl. I felt very comfortable knowing my pet was in such good hands.”

Liza did excellent. Was away for a week and you know how nerve racking that can be leaving your pup with a stranger. Liza showed up on time and shared pics and videos of our Mia the whole time. Mia was happy and well taken care of when we got back. I will use Liza again with no worries.
Wow! Joe and Daniella came for a drop in visit today for my two girls. They made sure my pups got to go outside to do their business. Joe and Daniella were very communicative with me and made me feel at ease. I am so impressed and extremely grateful for their help!!!
Deborah was awesome! She took great care of our doggies. Which I appreciate very much. She sent pics and kept us informed. We have never left our doggies with a sitter before. I would highly recommend her for anybody looking for somebody that takes good care of their babies.Thanks again Deb. Quit.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Franklin stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Franklin 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Franklin with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
