“Cecilia took great care of our kitties while we were gone for the holidays. She sent detailed daily updates and photos to give us peace of mind. This was her first time watching our crew, but we can honestly say we trust her to watch them again and will be rebooking!”
“She went above and beyond playing and giving loving attention to our cat! She often stayed longer than I even asked. Her mom does sometimes come with her, but she states that on her profile. Looking forward to using her again in the future!”
“Christa did a great job with my kitty while we were gone. Regular updates, lots of pictures and even got some pets! Wasn’t sure my kitty was even going to make an appearance. I had never used Rover before and she was also very helpful in that process. Highly recommend!”
“Amber visited us today for a meet & greet because she will be caring for our cats in the future. She is very kind and patient, her love of animals is evident. You can tell she's been doing this for some time, she is knowledgeable in animal care and behavior. After meeting Amber, and seeing her interacting with my pets, I am confident they will be very well cared for.”
About: I have years of hands on experience caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I personally have an 8 year old Chocolate Lab, a high-energy 3 year old Aussiedoodle, and a sweet 4 year old Tuxedo cat. Managing a mix of dogs and cats daily has taught me how to deliver attentive and detailed care; whether that means keeping up with active play, maintaining daily routines, or providing gentle companionship. I work from home full time so I am available for mid-day walks and drop ins. I only like to take on pets within a small local area so I am available quickly and frequently for extended care. I will always respect your home and established routines. I take the time to learn what works best for you and your pets so I can fit in as seamlessly as possible. I always provide pictures and updates so you know your loved one is having a great time.
About: Hi! I’m Connor, a Nashville local and lifelong animal lover. While I don’t currently have any pets of my own—my landlord doesn’t allow it—I deeply miss the companionship and joy they bring. That’s why I’d love to care for your pup during my evenings or weekends. I value consistency and reliability—ideal if you’re looking for a trusted regular walker or sitter. I offer: Weeknight walks starting after 5:30 pm Weekend walks & drop-ins (flexible hours) Pet sitting for weekend stays or when you’re away You can expect timely updates, photos, GPS-tracked walks, and respectful care of your home and routine. I work full-time during the week, but I’m available for evening walks after 5pm and mostly any time on weekends. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule as long as I'm not at work, since I don’t have pets of my own but would love to spend time with yours. I’m also open to overnight sitting when you’re away. If you’re within a 10–15 minute drive from my work, I may also be able to do a 30-minute walk or drop in during my lunch break around 1pm! I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety. In your home, I’ll follow your routines and respect any rules you set, whether that means crating, leashing, or keeping a calm environment. I understand pets can feel anxious when their owners are away, so I make sure to give them comfort, attention, and consistency.
“Ali did an amazing job watching our cats while we were away. She checked in with us every time she visited, sent plenty of pictures and videos, and was always proactive about asking questions when needed. She even helped clean up a few messes the cats made while we were gone. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter, and we will 1000% be having her watch our cats again whenever we travel out of town.”
About: I’ve helped family members take care of dogs by walking and bathing when needed. I’ve always loved being around dogs all my life as I grew up around them and worked in pet stores since 2022. I am currently working full time but the earliest i can stop by is 8 am and the latest being 9:30 at night if needed. I am comfortable with working with any restrictions required by owner, even if it means crating the animal, or any dieting the animal may have. I am also CPR certified through the American Red Cross, i can also provide proof of certification.
“Jacklyn took great care of our cat Sasha while we were away. We planned several days of drop in visits which went perfectly. I would highly recommend Jacklyn and wouldn’t hesitate to call on her again.”
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.
“Amazing, I’m a new cat owner and she gave me so many tips made me less stressed about this new journey, I can tell my girl Kali enjoyed her time with her, very sweet and caring!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our cat. Lillian was communicative, prompt, thorough, and most importantly kind and playful with our cat. We will for sure be using her again in the future!”
About: I am an experienced dog/cat sitter. I've worked with plenty of animals of all sizes. Shy or nervous animals are no problem! I have done some volunteering at both shelters and veterinary offices and am able to do some medical care if needed. I love all animals big or small with most temperaments. I have a Great Dane and a dachshund of my own, along with four cats and a hamster. There’s nothing I love more than meeting new furry friends! I would love to help out! I’m currently working a part-time job, but I am looking to make pet-sitting my main profession as I finish my college degree. Because I work part time, I have plenty of time to drop in for visits and can easily stay at your house! I love to try to keep a routine similar to that of the owners when pet sitting in a clients home. I am very flexible, and can honor whatever is asked of me regarding what is needed. I create a schedule of all responsibilities that I need to do along with extra notes about the specific pet to ensure I am well informed of what is needed. Along with this, I provide an extended amount of attention/playtime to those I stay with to help make the animal more comfortable/happy.
About: I have taken care of many different types of animals since a young child, including cats, dogs, reptiles and fish. It is my responsibility as a pet owner to ensure that the pets environment is suitable, and that I educate myself to provide them the best life that I can. I have a part-time job currently working in retail. I typically work about 25 to 30 hours a week however, my shifts are pretty short usually 5 to 6 hours max so with that being said, I’d like to use as much of my free time outside of work, taking care and sitting for pet owners. I see this as a great opportunity to do something that I love while also being able to add it to my résumé, so that way one day I can apply to work at a zoo and take care of many other animals. With my three cats, two lizards and many fish, I wake up every morning to my cats at my bedroom door asking to be fed, so that’s usually how I start off with pet care for the day. Then I move onto my tanks containing my reptiles and fish. The responsibilities there include turning on their tank lights and checking if they need water and/or food. Occasionally, one of my geckos will allow me to handle her so I might take her out out of the tank for a few minutes if I have time but other than that, I just ensure to keep a close eye on them and check on their needs constantly.
“Molly was excellent! Took lots of photos and followed instructions beautifully. My cat was in great hands. I live in an apartment that can be confusing to access and she was able to get in every day without complaints.”

Reagan is my go-to sitter for my little spoiled queen cat, Koko! I have rebooked multiple times as I travel on and off for work. Reagan is reliable, trustworthy, but more importantly, she really loves being around pets. She takes her time with them and makes sure they feel loved during her visit. As a crazy cat mom, it makes a world of a difference knowing Koko is taken care of - I just don’t have to worry. Will continue to rebook and thankful I found her!
Crystal was absolutely excellent! We booked her fairly last minute for three drop-in visits for our cat. We had to extend it to five drop-ins due to a change in our flight, and she was flexible and helpful. She sent lots of photos and updates. She was even kind enough to drip our faucets since it was going to be super cold out, feed our fish, and brought in some packages for us. I would use Crystal again and recommend her!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
