About: 22 -year-old college student who loves animals! Reliable, caring, and ready to provide your pets with the love and attention they deserve. Hope you’ll give me a chance! Being a 22-year-old college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet care daily. I prioritize giving pets the attention, exercise, and care they need, and I enjoy fitting this rewarding work into my routine alongside my studies and work. I ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether in my home or the client’s. At home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of attention and playtime. In clients’ homes, I follow their routines and instructions closely to maintain consistency and prioritize the pet’s well-being.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs-large and small, young and old-since before high school and now I am in graduate school still enjoying it! I will not only walk dogs and dogsit at houses, but I have also house sat and made sure to water plants and bring in mail and packages! I have experience with puppies and older dogs and keeping up with medicines for older dogs. I love to maintain good communication and send updates and photos for longer dog sitting jobs! I am currently on summer break from graduate school and working part-time. My schedule will vary, but nights are typically free for overnight dogsitting and daytime will also be available for dog walking and drop ins. I would love to work with owners on the times and dates they need! In my clients homes, I will care for the pet as instructed, whether feeding, letting them outside, etc. If they need to stay on a leash or are free to roam a fenced in yard, I will follow instructions for that. If they want to play or cuddle, I love doing that with them. I will respect the homes I go into, and I always try to leave things as I found them!

“Denver is a responsible pet caregiver. He was prompt every morning and evening. He kept me up to date on Maizey’s visits. If he is not sure of something he is not afraid to message you for clarification. He took good care of my furbaby and I would definitely use him again.”


About: i’ve taken care of animals for about 8 years now. i have also had at least 1 dog and cat for my entire life. i have 3 dogs and a cat myself (including a 16 year old beagle)!! i love animals soso much and think they deserve the absolute best from everyone. i often drive around handing out pet supplies to homeless with animals as well. im currently part time in school and work! i usually have class 8am-1pm but have an awkward break until work at 4pm-11pm. on my off days i am completely available and always looking for stuff to do! i have a fenced in yard for my 3 dogs and keep my cat inside. i often take one of the dogs to run errands with me and explore for some enrichment and fun! i don’t take my elderly dog (16) out too much due to his lipomas (fat tumors- typical for beagles) interfering with his hip/leg movement during long walks. he does get plenty of attention and fun at home though!
About: Hi there! I am an experienced pet sitter and have been loving and caring for pups on Rover for the past 3 years. With 22 five-star reviews from happy local pet parents, my primary goal is to give your dog the exact routine, comfort, and love they get when you are home. Your dog will get my focused, attentive care without the chaos of a busy boarding kennel. I am also a type A personality so remembering your pets specific needs is an easy task! I work professionally in the events industry and lucky for your fur baby, it is the slow season, which means my schedule is incredibly flexible. I do not work a rigid 9-to-5 desk job. Instead, I am often home for long stretches of the day to play, cuddle, and hang out with your dog. *Please note for SPRING and FALL bookings: This is considered "busy" season for me and my hours at work will vary. I am very communicative upfront though about what that looks like☺️ What I Offer (At No Extra Charge): Custom Routines: I follow your exact feeding, walking, and crate schedules perfectly. Home Security: I happily water your plants, bring in the mail, and keep your home tidy. Photo Updates: Expect plenty of cute photos and text check-ins so you never have to worry.
“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.”


“Ashley has taken care of our 18 year-old cat, Bear, twice now and both times were fantastic. She cuddles with him, brushes him, and it’s obvious he’s comfortable with her. She gives me peace of mind when I have to be out of town!”


About: Hi! I’m Amanda, a registered nurse and lifelong animal lover offering drop-in visits, walks, and boarding in my home. I currently travel all throughout Nashville and surrounding areas providing wound care to patients, so my schedule is extremely flexible and there’s a good chance I’m already in your area often. My nursing background has made me very dependable, attentive, patient, and comfortable handling routines, medications, senior pets, puppies, and anxious dogs. I’m also a dog mom myself, so I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like family, and yes, I will absolutely send you a million pictures and updates because I love getting them of my own dogs too. <3 I have a very flexible schedule throughout the week since I work as a registered nurse traveling throughout Nashville and surrounding areas providing wound care to patients in their homes. Because I’m already driving all over the city daily, I’m often able to accommodate drop-ins, walks, and check-ins in many different areas. I’m available for boarding in my home as well and will always make sure your pets get plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, love, and updates throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have two friendly dogs of my own and a fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, crate routines, and any special requests to help them feel comfortable and secure. As a nurse, I’m very attentive, calm under pressure, and detail-oriented. I’ll treat them like family and send plenty of pictures and updates along the way because I know how much that means as a pet parent.
About: Looking for a loving companion for your dog (or cat) while you're away? Look no further! My immense love of dogs started at quite a young age. And after much begging to my mother, we rescued my childhood dog from a humane society shelter in Ft. Worth, TX, and the rest is history. With me, you can rest easy knowing that your dog is receiving all the love and care possible. Dogs are not a job, but a life passion of mine! My first pet sitting experience, at the age of 6 (under the supervision of my mother), is one I won't soon forget. The neighbors had tasked me with watching their cat while they were away. The only problem was that they had forgotten to leave us a key to the apartment. Times like this one taught me to be quick on my feet in emergent situations. In the end, we were able to secure a key, and the cat was safe and well cared for. Over the years, my experience grew immeasurably, and even included a long standing stint as a "dog nanny" when her dog mom and dad vacationed. Expect for your furry family member to receive extra doses of love, top-notch care, walks, play time, snuggles (at no extra charge), and more! If you hire me, know that I look at this not as a job, but as a life passion. Your little (or not so little) loved one will be in great hands! * Willing to lock in prices for regular clients!! :) Rover is currently my full time gig, as I am in between jobs. So this means more love and quality time spent with your babies! I live at the end of a cul de sac that offers plenty of outdoor and walking space! I also live alone, so no roommates or other dogs (although I do sometimes have Rover clients at once pending the dogs do well with each other). I am in between jobs at the moment, so Rover is my full time income. This means extra quality time and love for your babies! If your dog is crate trained, feel free to bring it along, as this can provide a sense of comfort and safe space them. I do have a camera that I sometimes use to check in on the dogs, should I have to leave to run a quick errand or something.
About: We have been training and taking care of dogs since we were little. My family always rescued dogs so I have experience with all pup personalities! My husband works from home and can give around the clock pet care. I have a very flexible schedule and can take home days when caring for someone else’s pup. We live in a newly built single family home. We have a 4 year old shihtzu that is very laid back and loves making friends. We are obsessed with dogs and they are always the center of attention in our household. We allow dogs on all furniture and in the bed! We don’t require our dog to be put in a crate but he is very comfortable in one just in case you require your pup to be crated!
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.

About: Pet sitting and walking was my first job in middle school, and I’ve loved caring for fur babies ever since! In my 10 years of experience, I’ve taken care of cat and dogs and even worked at an animal rescue center in Ecuador, so I can handle it all. I am currently offering pet drop ins and walking services. My clients can count on me for consistency, detailed updates, and, most of all, that I will take care of your pets as my own. I have two cats and grew up with dogs, so I know how important it is that your pets receive the best care. I have a soft spot for giant breed dogs because I grew up with an Irish Wolfhound and Great Pyrenees! Reach out to me, and let’s discuss how I can provide the best care for your pet! I’m a college student interning in Nashville for the summer from 9 am to 3 pm. This means I can drop in to care for your pet before most 9 to 5 jobs end! I can do one drop in and/or walk before work and as many as you need in the afternoon or evenings. I’m also available all day on the weekends. I will follow your instructions to the letter! Whether it’s ensuring they get their medication, exercise, or cuddle time, I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s care routine. All pets will receive lots of love from me:) Please reach out to me with any special requests or care your pet may require, and I’ll be more than happy to accommodate them.
About: Hi! I’m a local mom living on a mini farm in Goodlettsville with my husband, son, two dogs, and ten chickens. Animals have always been a huge part of our lives, and we spend most of our days outside exploring, playing, and staying active. My son absolutely loves animals and is a wonderful little helper. He accompanies me about 90% of the time, so if your dog or cat prefers a child-free environment or isn’t comfortable around kids, please let me know and we can discuss whether we’re a good fit. We love getting out and doing fun activities, whether that’s neighborhood walks, playing in the yard, walking to coffee, or even taking your pup on an adventure to a dog park (with your permission, of course!). If your pet prefers a slower pace, we’re equally happy to provide snuggles, backyard or indoor playtime, and companionship at home. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll treat your dog or cat like one of our own—with plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and updates while you’re away. We have a sweet newborn baby so I’m home 24/7 to be with your pup giving treats and snuggles and making sure all their needs are met. We have a fenced in front yard waiting for your pup to explore! We also have two friendly dogs for your pup to play with!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Joelton 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 Joelton 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 .

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 Joelton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
