“Elizabeth was kind, communicative, and most importantly treated our Louie so well! It looks like they had a lot of fun together from the pictures she provided. We would absolutely use her again in the future!”
“I requested Marine to check in on my two cats while I was away on vacation, and I couldn't be happier with her service! From start to finish, the communication was excellent, giving me peace of mind knowing my fur-babes were in great hands. She not only made sure they were well-fed but also took the time to play with them and give cuddles, keeping them happy and entertained. I received regular updates, including multiple photos on each visit! It's clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I will definitely be requesting her again! Highly recommended!”

“Such a good experience! Braelyn took amazing care of our cats, even getting out scaredy cat out of her hiding places for pets and treats. Like the other reviews said, she took so many pictures and let us know how they were doing each visit. Thank you Braelyn!!”

I regularly care for Labs, Golden Retrievers, Pomeranians, and German Shepards! Daily care includes walks, regular feeding, and regular time in the yard! I am in school part time, so I spend a lot of time at home! I also have very active parents and a brother who love helping me care for pups! I have a fenced yard in a safe neighborhood! We will spend time going on walks and playing in the backyard if your dog would like! My house has 2 stories, but we keep the dogs on the first floor!
About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I have 3 family dogs and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I'm comfortable handling a variety of temperaments and energy levels. I enjoy spending time outdoors, going on walks, and making sure each dog gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a safe, loving environment where they can feel happy and secure. I currently work a part time job, but other than that I have plenty of time to make sure your pets are well taken care of I have experience caring for pets through dog walking and pet sitting. My responsibilities included feeding, providing fresh water, walking dogs, cleaning up after pets, administering medications when instructed, and ensuring they were safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners were away. I also followed each owner's care instructions, maintained reliable communication, and treated every pet with patience and compassion.
About: I have had a dog since I was 10 years old. I have a passion for shelter dogs and have adopted all four I've cared for humane societies! My soul dog passed last year and I have experience and a gentle approach for your senior dog. We also rescued a puppy this year and have patience and skills with their energy! Pups of all ages, sizes, genders and behaviors deserve love! I have a flexible, fully remote job Monday-Friday! This allows me to drop in when it's best for you and your dog, or even spend a few hours with them for company :) I am happy to follow any instructions and wishes you have for your dog and home! Walks, playtime, feeding? No problem. We also have a dog who received medication daily and am comfortable administering if needed!
“Adrienne has done several days of drop in visits for us twice. Both experiences were great! She arrived as scheduled kept the boys company and watched out for destructive behavior. When we returned the house was intact and our dogs were much more relaxed having stayed home. The bonus is also I didnt have to give the 3 dogs baths upon returning home. They didn't stick like the overnight kennel! Thanks, Adrienne.”
About: I am such an animal lover, and I like to think they love me too;) I have owned dogs my whole life and recently adopted a cat, Willow! I’m excited to meet and care for your pets:) I am a student at Middle Tennessee State University with classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This means I am available often for your pets! I am very attentive of my animals (currently one dog and one cat). I feed them on a consistent schedule and let the dog out every two-three hours. I also provide them with lots of attention, whether they would prefer to be in my skin (my dog) or relax in the same area without touch (my cat). I can be very adaptive to any animals’ needs!
About: Hi! My name is Jordan, and I would be honored to be your pet sitter. I am a passionate animal lover with experience providing both overnight/in-home pet sitting and drop-in visits for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I have had a blast caring for my neighbors’ dogs, friends’ pets, and other local families' furry companions. Through positive experiences and word-of-mouth referrals, I have continued to gain pet-sitting opportunities by networking and building relationships within my community. In addition to pet sitting, I have hands-on experience potty training puppies from raising two of my own. I am also especially comfortable working with anxious dogs, as I have an anxious dog myself and understand the patience, consistency, and reassurance they need to feel safe and comfortable. I take pride in making sure every dog feels happy, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away, and I treat each pet as if they were my own. I am currently working a very flexible job, so I would have lots of time to check on your pups! I have pretty much full availability for the summer except for one trip from June 29 through July 2. When caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, potty breaks, fresh water, and feeding according to the owner's instructions. I also make sure pets receive lots of affection and companionship so they feel secure while their family is away. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities, including puppies who are still learning routines and anxious dogs who may need extra patience and reassurance. Because I have raised two puppies and have an anxious dog of my own, I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and individualized care. Communication is extremely important to me. I value keeping owners updated with messages, photos, and check-ins, and I want pet parents to feel confident that their dog is receiving excellent care. I always follow the owner's preferences and instructions, and I make sure any decisions regarding their pet are discussed with them whenever possible. My goal is to work as a team with each owner to ensure every choice is in the best interest of their pup's health, happiness, and well-being.
“Lisa is great! She did drop-in visits for our dog, Loui, while we were out of town over the weekend, and I have no complaints. She was on time for each scheduled visit, shared plenty of photos, and communicated how Loui was doing with enough details so that we had no worries about him at home! When we need pet-care for future travels I will be reaching out again for sure, thank you so much, Lisa!”
About: Growing up with Pitbulls, I have no fear of dogs of any kind. I have experience sitting for cats and dogs. Most I’ve sat for at 1 time is 5, 2 dogs, 3 cats!! I’m starting college at the end of August and will be available to sit in the evenings and weekends! If local I can pop in and out throughout the day, if not I’ll spend the afternoon with them. We Eat, We Play, We Potty, We Relax, and We Repeat. I also have experience with tedious meal times and medications for pets. Which will be easy to incorporate into that schedule.

Lauren was great with my pups! She was able to help me out super last minute and for that I couldn’t be more thankful! Highly recommend her! Will be using her again in the future! She took pics which made everything so much better and you could tell she truly loves puppies!
Cassie was amazing! She was so loving with our dogs — they absolutely adored her. 🐾 She kept us updated with lots of photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Her communication was excellent, and we could tell our pups were in the best hands. Highly recommend Cassie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! ❤️

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Murfreesboro 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.

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 Meet & Greet .
