“Louie had a great time with Heather! She was very respectful of our home and did a great job with our puppy. I am sure we will be using her again in the future!”
“Melanie took such good care of my dog and cat! She was so understanding my dog's anxiety and made sure he got play time in the yard when he didn't want to take a walk. She was also great with communication and photos. Highly recommend!”
“I’ve used Rover more than 20 times over the years, and Rose was by far the best sitter we’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to ensure we knew our pups were in great hands, keeping us updated and handling every detail with care. She not only met all of our requests but exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend!”
“Emma did a fantastic job watching our two pups in our home for the weekend. The dogs adored her and our home was in perfect condition when we returned. Would 100% trust her with our very high maintenance dogs again!!”
“Chris was the absolute best! Our babies loved him. He took great care of them and left our place clean and tidy the way we had it. We will definitely rebook with him in the future! We can’t thank him enough!”
“We had a couple dates we needed to be without the dog while visiting in Madras. I was nervous about leaving Wren out of town with someone we had not met yet. Nishell was super helpful and comunicative with me about dates and times that changed a couple times. She was very accomodating! Sweetest girl ever and Wren did really well with her even being a stranger! I hope she will be available when we come back on our next trip. She walked him fed him did everything she could think of to make him feel at home. We are so appreciative! If you live in Madras you should use her!”

About: I grew up with 5 dogs, 3 labs and 2 shitzu mixes. Their energy, love and playfulness brightened all my days. I will forever miss them. My love for dogs led me to volunteer with Wags and Walks and to babysit my dog niece Phoebe. Is it a good walk if you don’t stop to pet every dog you meet? I am a career IT. I started out as an IT in the Navy, after I got sick and was discharged I decided to pivot to work doing things I love and that fulfill me. I started out volunteering, pet/house sitting for friends and realized this is what I would like to do full time until I can transition into culinary school. I have nothing but love for all animals, tenderness for their people and a passion to make their time on Earth the absolute best! While I cannot host your animals, I pride myself on being able to anticipate animals needs! No ask is too complex to me because every animal’s needs are important and deserve to be tailored.
“We were on vacation in Nashville needing a sitter and not knowing anyone in the area made it difficult until I found the Rover App. I was able to do a video chat with Stephanie, which made me feel comfortable with hiring her. She is very pleasant and easy to deal with and to talk with. If we are ever in Nashville again, I would definitely hire Stephanie again.”
“Dominique stayed in house sat for our dog a few days and went absolutely above and beyond! We felt extremely comfortable with her watching vinnie in our home, she is very kind, respectful and communicative. She gave vinnie lots of attention. Will absolutely book Dominique again!!”
“Madalina was an angel! I have very high expectations for anyone caring for my dogs, and she exceeded all of them. We were gone for over a week, and she took the time to send photos, updates, and videos multiple times a day. She totally got my dogs’ personalities and it is evident she truly loves animals and cares for them as if they were her own. Mine both had tummy troubles and she handled it like a total pro. My house was sparkling clean when we got back and it was such a relief to come home to a beautifully cared for home and very happy dogs. I’ve never had a dog sitter who spent so much time interacting with my dogs, playing, brushing, and loving on them. I feel so lucky to have found her! Thank you Madalina!”
“Mollie is the BEST! She watched our pup for a week. I know our dog had the best time with Mollie and her dogs. We got daily updates with pictures. We will definitely have Mollie watch our pup again!”

Remington P.
“Remington has been one of the best pet sitters we have ever found and will always be using her if she’s available! Our 2 dogs were absolutely obsessed with Remington when we came home and probably could have cared less if we came back or not. The best feeling honestly, knowing our fur babies were in great hands. Not only did Remington care for our pets but she was totally willing to keep with my watering schedule for my indoor and outdoor plants. Our home was treated with respect and was neat and tidy when we got back. You cannot go wrong using Remington as your pet sitter. You and your pets will all agree!”
