“Dominic is awesome! He’s a great communicator which is huge for pet parents who worry. You can tell he really loves animals and does a great job taking care of them. We’ll definitely book again!!”
About: I am a Veterinary student at a local college. I have raised dogs and cats growing up. I do kennel work for shelters, and I am starting clinicals for school this summer to give me even more hands-on experience with the animals. I had a business in my old hometown, and I have references for pet sitting of different species (guinea pigs, fish, cats, & dogs, to highlight a few.) I currently work full time hours in a café, but would like to shift towards being able to do more things related to my future career instead. This will give me a great opportunity to do that. I’m usually off work by 1-2pm, 4pm at the latest, which still gives me lots of time in the day to hang out with your beloved pets!! I treat every animal big or small like a member of the family, and with the care that they deserve. I can easily crate a dog or cat if necessary, but prefer taking the approach of giving them freedom to go where they please, (with supervision, of course!)
About: Reliable dog sitter with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I prioritize safety, consistency, and positive interactions so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. work an early morning schedule from 3:30 AM to 12:30 PM, which leaves my afternoons and evenings open for pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the afternoon and evening. I enjoy building pet care into my daily routine and making sure every pet gets dependable, loving care. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding instructions, schedules, and house rules, and I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Safety is always my top priority, whether that means secure leashes on walks, monitoring behavior, or keeping a clean and calm environment. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel confident and informed while they’re away. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and keep everything tidy; in my home, pets are treated like family and given a comfortable, low-stress environment.
“Katherine took care of our bunny, Basil, for a week while we were away. I feel like she really went above and beyond, and she is very communicative. I would highly recommend Katherine as an awesome sitter. Thanks, Katherine!”
About: Traveling for the holidays or vacation? Need someone you can trust to care for your furry family member and home? Let’s schedule a time to chat. This is something that allows me additional funds for school and, it’s a lot fun! Your furry family member could never overstay their welcome. I own a kennel that securely holds a dog that weighs to 70lbs. I am very accessible living the heart of South Austin. My primary goal is to assist those who have a chaotic schedule but genuinely care for the well-being of their furry family friend. I’m here to help! Secondly, I'd love to be able to save up for my own furry family friend. Since I do not have one of my own dog, yours can and will be my primary focus. I take very seriously the mental and physical health of all animals. If I’m not traveling, I wfh locally and allow walks to be a much needed break from zoom calls. I like to love places better than I arrived! During my services I am reading your furry family member body language and getting to know them through play. My main focuses are safety, comfort, and mental and physical stimulation.
“I have entrusted Riley and Victoria with my medically needy animals on a few occasions. They are wonderful. My cats appreciate them and I know my animals are safe and well looked after.”
“Victoria was so sweet with our Macadamia! She was very generous to take her on walks, pick up her poop in the yard, & bring our packages in. Will definitely book again! I know our dog Mac was in great hands☺️”
“Doug was great; he went above and beyond what was expected. There is some sibling rivalry between my two cats and he made sure both of them had a chance to eat by sticking around and feeding them in separate rooms if need be. He also kept an eye on the house, and kept me informed of any suspicious activity in the neighborhood, made sure our windows were locked, took out the trash, etc. He was very communicative and responsive. This definitely made me feel more at ease during our trip. When the Microsoft crash shut all the airlines down, he reached out to see if our flight was affected and said he could keep feeding the cats if needed. I would highly recommend Doug for other pet owners, and would definitely use his services again in the future.”
“Kay was great to work with! We did a “meet and greet” beforehand. She was knowledgeable and easy-going to meet my cat’s needs. Her drop in visits included pictures and daily updates and it was easy to tell she really loves working with animals!”
About: I love going on walks and hikes with dogs. My dog is a senior dog now at 12 years old and has hip issues. She doesn’t get to do that anymore. I know how much dogs love to walk. I recently retired a few months ago, so my schedule is pretty flexible to meet the needs of the clients. I have to be busy. I have a fenced in yard myself but I go out with my own dog. I will go out with your dog as well to ensure safety.
“She scheduled meet and greet at my house prior to services. She was very responsive and sent photos every visit. My dogs seemed calm and happy in all photos and when we came back home. Thank you, Noelle! 😊”
About: I enjoy all animals. I aspire to open an animal rescue in the future. I have one amazing dog that I raised from a puppy. I take him on runs for exercise and also slow walks where he can take in all the smells. I love getting to meet new dogs and give them lots of love and massages. I try to connect with animals and make them feel more confident and comfortable so their true characters are able to come out. I have some extra time where I can spend taking care of your loved one. I truly enjoy being active and can exercise your dog better than over 90% of dog walkers (according to my mileage). I am very clean and respectful of other people’s homes. My parents were never strict, but one big thing they taught me was how to respect other people and their home/sanctuary.
About: My family has had dogs since I was very young, and I have had my own dog for 3 years now. She is a rescue, and I have had her since she was 6 months old. I work full-time in a bakery and am off most days around 1-3pm. I do have some free mornings as well and would be able to drop by with notice. I live close to East Nashville with my dog, Millie, and cat, Spoon! I live by all the good walking trails. I would love to schedule some dog-walking nearby so that i can take full advantage of all the great weather we are having.
“mercy is AMAZING!! She spent quality time with my pets& i could tell they were loved while i was away:)) she is also super sweet& responds quickly. she also worked with me when i made it back to my babies a little later than anticipated. you won’t regret hiring her, & ill be recommending her x1000!!”
About: Hi! My name is Isabella Lee, and I LOVE animals! I grew up always having pets of my own, from dogs and cats to bunnies, birds, Guinea pigs, and turtles. Then I started pet sitting/dog walking for others when I was 10 years old. I also grew up on various family farms, and spent every moment I could outside with the animals, riding horses, feeding pigs, and chasing/being chased by goats and cows. I have extensive experience with many different types, sizes and ages of both dogs and cats. Whether you need someone to go for walks around the neighborhood, visit the dog park, or just play around the house, I really love whatever furry friend I'm with! I really try to make your pets my first priority! I make an effort to follow whatever schedule the pets are normally used too. I do have a second business of my own, but it’s all remote from my computer and the hours are 100% dictated by me, which leaves me flexible and available most of the time! I try to comply with whatever the pet parents request/require. I don’t do boarding so whatever the house rules are at your home, those are the ones I follow.
“My dogs loved Elizabeth!! And they don't like everyone. I was so worried to leave them for eight days while we were out of state, but she did so good with them and communicated every day. I will definitely be using her again for any long term trips.”

Jennifer was extremely caring for my Frechie while I was away. She was communicative and updated his report card daily, as well as sent pictures to me. And left me a very sweet and detailed note at the conclusion of the her visit! I highly recommend Jennifer in the future
Finding Afton to sit with our two furry gals has been incredible! We have a larger dog and a small one and she is great with both. She walks, plays, distributes meds and gives great attention to each detail. And when we arrived home, everything was neat and tidy. Afton truly goes above and beyond, 5 Star sitter, we found a gem!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Hendersonville is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,900 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Hendersonville. 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.
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 Hendersonville 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.

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 , 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.
