Dog Walking Hermitage Hills

About: I have cared for just about every animal type - dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and a few exotic reptiles and amphibians. In that scope, I’ve managed surprise litters, caring for young and senior pets with all their needs. I’m currently working from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I will have my elementary age kids and our senior dog with me every other week, and we’re unfortunately allergic to cats. I have a large fenced in yard, plus my own dog every other week. She is a bit picky about other dogs depending on their size, age, and personality.

“I had a fantastic experience with Brooke through Rover. She was incredibly responsive and even accommodated a same-day booking, which was a huge help. She bonded quickly with my dogs and made us feel completely at ease. Her professionalism and clear communication stood out from start to finish. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy care for their pet.”

“Shelby was so amazing with my mama’s boy of a bully-boxer baby! He can be a stubborn one but he surely adored her! And she captured some adorable photos on their walk ?. Will definitely book her again ⭐️”

“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 have loved and owned a variety of dogs at all ages since I was a child. I currently have one dog. He is a well-rounded pup, playful with energetic friends and gentle with younger/older friends. We have a fenced-in backyard and a large comfy couch! I have a fenced in back yard and a playful pup of my own to keep your pup(s) company! I can also crate if you like. I am currently a full time teacher with open weekends and nights until the summer. In the summer I am fully dedicated to my Rover clients! I have a small fenced in backyard and can, and prefer, to crate in case I can not directly supervise all dog play and feedings.

About: I’ve always loved caring for animals! I had my dog, Sophie, for 9 years, so I have plenty of experience caring for a dog, keeping up with their needs, and making sure they feel happy and comfortable. I also cared for my neighbors’ pets when I was younger, which helped me learn how to be responsible and attentive with animals. I would love the opportunity to care for your dog and give them the same love and attention I gave Sophie! I’m dependable, caring, and excited to meet your furry friend. 🐶❤️ I’m currently a college student looking to earn some extra money to help cover school supplies, books, and other college expenses. I’d love to combine that with something I genuinely enjoy; caring for animals! I have lots of love for both cats and dogs, so I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of company, whether that means playing, going on walks, or simply relaxing together! 🐾 I’m also happy to help with feeding, litter box cleaning, and other everyday pet-care needs. Your pets will get lots of attention, care, and love while you’re away! ❤️

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was younger. I have had cats, dogs and tarantulas, so I am used to a wide range of animals. I live alone and work a typical 9-5 job as an attorney in town, and I do not have any pets of my own. I always pet-sit for my friends' cats and dogs, so I would love to do it with Rover. I love to play games with the animals to keep them stimulated. I also enjoy walking animals and simply being with them. I am very good with both dogs and cats.

“Adazia walked in and our dog jumped on her lap And bonded immediately! This just doesn’t happen normally! Needless to say Adazia was a rockstar with our baby and took her on a great walk. Looking forward to using her regularly in the future. Very responsive and has a way with animals.”

About: I have lived/taken care of animals my whole life. Have taken care of dogs,cats,bunnies,lizards. I have two dogs at home that I care for and have trained. I work at a coffee shop in the morning/afternoons during the week but after noon my days are pretty open and am usually available anytime after that. I have a fenced in backyard and take my dogs on a walk 1-2 times a day. I follow whatever instructions are given and make sure the house is clean before leaving. When taking care of dogs will make sure to take them out every couple hrs.

About: Caring for others has been a meaningful part of my life for as long as I can remember—both people and animals. I’ve cared for my own pets, dog-sat for family and friends, rescued lost pets and helped reunite them with their owners, and have always been drawn to animals who need a little extra care and patience. I currently have a nine-year-old Beagle/Toy Poodle mix named Millie and a cat named Josie, who is about six years old. I rescued Josie as a stray when she was sick and in need of care. I took her in, helped her get healthy, patiently earned her trust, and ultimately decided to make her part of my family. Her journey has given me firsthand experience with cats who may be fearful, shy, anxious, temperamental, or slow to trust, and taught me how important patience, understanding, and respecting an animal’s boundaries can be. I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, energy levels, and temperaments. I pay close attention to animal body language and behavior and can recognize the signs that a dog or cat is comfortable, fearful, overstimulated, anxious, playful, or welcoming. I believe understanding those signals is one of the most important parts of caring for an animal because every pet communicates differently. My caregiving experience also extends to people. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and children, helped my mother with babysitting while growing up, and have provided care and companionship to elderly individuals. My professional caregiving background also includes working as an obstetric technician, caring for newborns, young children, and mothers following delivery, as well as caring for elderly patients, including those who needed comfort, companionship, and attentive support. These experiences have taught me to be patient, observant, dependable, gentle, and attentive to the needs of those in my care. Whether I’m caring for a person or an animal, I understand that they may not always be able to tell me exactly what they need. I’ve learned to pay attention, recognize changes in behavior, and respond with compassion. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be difficult. I take that trust seriously. I’m comfortable following your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and giving them the patience and space they need to feel comfortable. I also believe in keeping owners informed and communicating if I notice anything unusual about their pet. Most importantly, I don’t see pet sitting as simply “watching an animal.” I see it as caring for a member of someone’s family. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and genuinely cared for while you’re away—and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. My schedule is flexible because I do contract work, allowing me to focus on pet visits and walks. I’m happy to work with clients’ schedules and do my best to accommodate their routines, work hours, and pets’ individual needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and making every pet feel comfortable in my care. I have experience with dogs and cats of different sizes, personalities, and temperaments, including shy, anxious, fearful, energetic, and more independent animals. I pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can recognize when a pet is comfortable, overwhelmed, nervous, or needs space. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I will respect their routines, boundaries, environment, and individual needs. My goal is to provide calm, attentive, compassionate care while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are safe and well cared for.

“Let my pup out last minute which was a life saver. Very communicative which is easing! Thank you! Will definitely be booking again”

Jessikha R.

About: Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or mental stimulation, I adjust my care to fit each dog's personality and energy level. I treat every pet like my own! I’m currently a student at Belmont University and working a part time job at a smoothie bar. I’m desperately animal deprived and missing my dog back home in Colorado! I have lots of free time Monday, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays throughout the day, and I would love nothing more than to fill it by providing your pet with the love and attention he/she deserves. I maintain the pet’s regular feeding, walking, and playtime schedule to minimize stress. I keep the home tidy, bring in mail, and ensure everything runs smoothly while you're away.

“Jennifer treats my animals like her own! I would definitely trust her with them! She has been so patient and kind with my dog that has anxiety. :)”

Lester K.

“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 have more dog pictures on my phone than I do selfies. I spend my free time exercising with my own dog, Lylah and hiking in the area. Being the daughter of a veterinarian, I’ve grown up surrounded by animals. I feel I can learn as much from them as they can from me! Working over a year for an official pet sitting/dog walking service has taught me excellent customer service and professionalism. I’m used to dealing with breeds of all kinds and am not intimidated by animals with aggression or anxiety. I am very patient and understanding, especially if the pet is in poor health or was subject to abuse in a previous household. I am quick to fix behavioral problems and may even be able to help you become more comfortable with your pet! I have several routine visits on my calendar for the next 6 months. However, I am usually able to work in new clients if the times of the visit are flexible. I guarantee your pet the attention it deserves when you (the best friend) isn’t available! I am accustomed to feeding, walking, medication times, command practice, bowel and bladder programs or any sort of organized scheduling for your pet's puppy training. I understand different people have different methods and am happy to learn

“My dogs were well taken care of for drop in walks while I was on a very long work shift”

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.
