About: With years of veterinary experience, I bring more than just a love of animals to pet sitting! I worked in veterinary care for 5 years in a clinic and spent three years as a remote veterinary triage nurse, giving me experience in veterinary medicine and comfortability in administrating medications. I’ve owned dogs, cats, snakes, lizards, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of pets. I’m patient, attentive, and passionate about making every animal feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Your pets will be treated like family! I currently stay home with my 4-year-old, while my two school-age children are at school, so my schedule is flexible and open for daily check-ins, walks, and pet visits. I can work with your pet’s routine and provide dependable, loving care throughout the day. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, and I’m happy to help make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. My home has a fenced-in wooded area where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time and explore safely. I have three friendly dogs and a cat, so I understand the importance of making sure all animals feel comfortable and get along. I always prioritize each pet’s individual needs, routines, and safety. In a client’s home, I will follow their instructions closely, keeping pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Gabbi and Justin were very welcoming and kind towards Cinnabon! They ensure they kept in contact with me during the stay as well as accommodated the last minute changes I needed to make. I highly recommend them for your future boarding needs.”
“I have to admit I was worried leaving my pug Izzy with a total stranger so when I read Sophia's bio I felt like she would be a great choice and I was not wrong. Sophia and her husband were just awesome and took excellent care of my baby, I seriously could not have been happier. She sent pictures so I could feel good about being gone and when I returned a week later to pick up my baby girl it was obvious she had the absolute best time and was very well cared for. As long as Sophia is dog sitting I won't ever use anyone else. Thanks so much you guys.”
“Deanna was great! We left our two mini dachshunds with her, and they got along immediately. She sent regular updates and was very easy to communicate with. Thank you for taking such great care of our pups :)”
“We would definitely use again. Our Lucy was well taken care of and we got updates and photos while we were out of town. It was was one less worry for us while we traveled.”
“Stephanie really brought out my dog’s personality! T had the time of her life and I knew she was in good, qualified hands. I even learned a thing or two. I would definitely recommend Stephanie and will be back next year. *such cute photos too :)”
About: I treat every pet like they're my own, taking the time to learn their routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm patient and attentive with puppies who are still learning routines, and I'm equally comfortable caring for senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, or extra care and attention. I believe in clear communication, so you'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care, whether it's drop-in visits, walks, daycare, or overnight stays. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to keep them on their normal routine as much as possible. This helps them feel comfortable, happy, and secure while their owners are away. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I take time to get to know each pet's personality and energy level so they receive the care and attention that's right for them. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment, closely supervise pets, and make sure they always have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of affection. If your pet requires medication or extra care, I'm happy to follow detailed instructions to ensure their needs are met.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, horses, you name it. Animals are underrated as members of the family in my opinion and I just want to make sure any animal in my care is treated like family. I take care of my animals (two dogs and a kitty cat) daily and they have a pretty set routine, I would be working my schedule around their routine and working on my days off. I’m happy to drop in and check on your babies and give them love and attention on long work days. I know how stressful it is to be at work knowing your baby is alone at home and I’m happy to help!
“I didn’t know what to expect as this was my 1st boarding of a pet, but Shelley was very upbeat and patient and communicated promptly with me prior to my scheduled drop off day. My experience was hassle-free! The pictures and videos she sent me of my puppy with his new experiences and interactions with other pets, I was relieved. Upon pick up of Koda, everything went very smooth even though I did arrive sooner than I had expected from my trip. If you are looking to board your fur-baby, I highly recommend Shelley!”
About: Grew up with all sorts of animals, mainly cats and dogs of all sizes. Currently have one of my own and live with 5 other dogs in a house. Just moved to Nashville so hoping to meet all the new doggie faces. Currently working part-time monday through friday and weekends will usually be open to spend as much time as needed with the pets. Just let me know in advance and i can usually make time to help you out. Im living in an apartment with some friends so i would mainly prefer in home dog watching or walking. My roommates have a dog so boarding at my apartment wouldnt be the best option as well.
About: I worked in the vet industry since I was about 17 years old as a veterinary technician. I found another full time job in the healthcare industry in Cancer research about a year and a half ago. But I still kept my veterinary job until recently. I left the vet industry to open up my availability to be around animals in a more intimate way such as dog walking, house sitting, etc. I am experienced with most animals since I grew up with a lot of my own. Over the years my family has owned ducks, chickens, horses, chinchillas, cats, sugar gliders, dogs, bearded dragons, geckos, rabbits, cows and guinea pigs so I am experienced with several different types of animals! I’m currently working full time but I have a work from home job that is flexible so I am able to bring my laptop and work phone. I go in office to work in Nashville a 1 day out of the week but I can always change the days around so I am very flexible! I know pet safety so I will keep a dog on the leash at all times unless there is a fence to put them in. Also if I need to bring any animals to my house I have a crate I can keep them in. I have a yard with a fence that I would watch them under my direct supervision at all times.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
93% of sitters in Manchester can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Manchester home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Manchester.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Manchester. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
You and your Manchester sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
