“I left my cat with Andrea for a week while I went on vacation and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She took great care of him and provided plenty of pictures to ease my worries and responded quickly. I highly recommend booking with her!!!”
About: I have had family dogs my whole life.. but it reached a whole new level when I got my border collie in 2020. I was extra attentive, focused on training, and overall one of the most “helicopter” dog owners there could be. We worked through reactivity, by focusing my training on positive reinforcement and displacement activities to calm down and give them a better outlet! I trained my border collie, Cletus, the names of all his toys, weave poles, weaving between my feet, and many other tricks. Unfortunately he passed earlier this year due to cancer, and my belief is that grief is just love with nowhere to go. I am passionate about providing healthy, positive outlets for energy and providing the mental stimulation dogs need to set them up for success. I would love to hear all about your dog- their silly behaviors, their favorite (and least favorite) treats, and what extra supports they may need! No information is too much, because I understand how much they truly mean to each family ♥️ I am available throughout the day until 6pm on weekdays. If you would like weekend care, please message me and I could possibly work something out! Promises I can make (with love): I will NEVER leave your dog outside unattended (even with a fenced yard). I will NEVER take your dog for a walk without a leash (I prefer 6ft leads, not retractable). I will ALWAYS respect your boundaries with your dog. I will ALWAYS be responsive when you send a message.
“Gabbi & Justin were the sweetest and kindest people ! I would recommend them 1000 times over. I has never left my baby , and she was taken care of with suxh love . I received pictures the whole time ( def made me feel better ) . If you want someone to look after your fur babies . They are it !!”
“Payton and Alexander were great! They had great feedback with written notes and took multiple pictures of my pets. Even my cat let them pet him when he usually would run and hide from people. My Pomeranian looked happy in the pictures as well.”
“Martina was such a caring and nurturing being. She respected my house hold and my belongs, but most importantly she took well care of my pet. Tank is a lover and she def treated him with plenty of it. She followed directions, texted and called when she had questions, and locked up once she departed. I would recommend anyone else to get her to watch or drop in on your pet! Thank you again Martina??”
“Mallory has great availability and she is very punctual! She also took great pictures for their report cards after her visit, and follows instructions given perfectly! I would 100% book her over and over :)”
“Hannah did an amazing job taking care of my bunny boy! We did a meet and greet a few days prior to my leaving date, and she was very excited and happy to watch my bunny boy! Both of us got along great. Hannah is very good with communicating to me anything about my bunny boy. Loved the pictures she took and the comments she left! Will be booking with Hannah in the future!”
“I can’t recommend Haley enough. She stepped in on extremely short notice, taking over my cats’ care late the evening before their visits were set to begin, and was incredibly kind, professional, and accommodating from the start. My cats were very stressed after a difficult experience with another sitter, and during her first visit she spent extra time with them to help them feel safe and comfortable. Her calm, patient, and gentle approach made such a noticeable difference in their stress levels, and I truly believe her care helped them settle. She was also excellent with communication. She kept me informed about any visit time adjustments, sent wonderful photos, and was very understanding of any of my check-ins, especially during that first visit when I was understandably anxious. She was consistently sweet, reassuring, and thoughtful throughout the entire experience. It’s such a relief finding someone who genuinely cares. I’m incredibly grateful she was willing to step in when we needed help, and I would absolutely trust her with my cats again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, reliable, and attentive sitter.”
“Shelley is extraordinary and helps us in so many ways Yesterday she came on very short notice during an emergency to give us peace of mind. She has even taught Presley to roll over, and all sorts of manners have improved such not picking up sticks, sit. stay, etc. There should be a special title for someone whose calling is to minister to pets. What a gift! :)”
“Not only does Shoshanna do a great job and consistently go above and beyond, I can also always depend on her for a prompt response and flexibility in working with my demanding work schedule.”
“Jessie cares for our dog when we go out of town. She is reliable, has great communication, and loves animals. Our dog loves her and is well taken care of when we are gone. Thank you!”
“Dawn is absolutely amazing. This is my first time using Rover and she made me feel at ease and I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to take wonderful care of Max. 10/10 recommend and will use her every time we need someone!!!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 14 years old! I am a 22 year old recent wildlife graduate who has experience with animal care! 🩷 I love the outdoors, so walks will be a blast with me! I love having surprises for my furry clients (toys, treats, activities, etc.), and I 100% will make sure your little bud will have fun and be thoroughly enriched! I know how to use CPR on small and large dogs and I know how to save most animals from choking. I have a lot of free time right now due to the wildlife career field being a little lackluster at the moment. However, that means I have all the free time in the world to help you with your dog/cat! I always try to sit down or watch the behavior of the pets before I engage in activities or enrichment. I’m a firm believer that every animal has their own personality, thus I have to adapt how I play with them or take care of them. I know most first aid for animals, can help blind animals + deaf animals, and animals with mobility issues. I only feed animals what clients give or tell me! Even though I love offering treats, my treats are only my the permission of owners. I always create a space in my own home if an animal needs to stay with me. That is no trouble! When the activities will be outside, I know just the right places!
“I had a great experience with Kayla. Despite all the instructions that were given, she made sure she was at each visit on time, kept me informed, took pictures and made sure to tell me about things that were going on throughout the visit without me having to ask and Tecco loved her as well!! I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Katie was a blessing! We had a friend bail on us last minute and we got so lucky using Rover for the first time and finding Katie! Our dogs did so well with her and we loved getting the updates each time she dropped in! Our dog Leo doesn’t always do well with strangers, but Katie was great with him! We are so grateful”
About: Your favorite animal lover here! I have 9 years of experience at a boarding facility taking care of pups and making sure there needs are met. My favorites are the older, special needs babies because I am a very patient person and I love to give extra care. When spending time with your pet I will be dedicating my time to them and loving them as I would my own. I have a very friendly and playful chiweenie myself! I do work mornings at my job but would love to spend my nights and off days walking, loving on, and playing with all your adorable dogs! I will gladly send you a ton of pictures and will give your babies all the love and cuddles. Being able to make your pup feel like there at home even though there home (you) is away.
About: I’m a caring and responsible pet sitter who truly loves animals. I treat every pet like family and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and comfort while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, meals, or just extra cuddles, your pet will be happy and well cared for. Offering you peace of mind while you are away from home. During the week I work full time but since I am an empty nester I can schedule time before I go to work in the morning to spend time with your fur baby / babies or arrive at your home right after work to either spend time or be there for an over night stay so they aren't alone. If you are planning a weekend get-a-way I am available to stay with them for the duration of the weekend. I provide reliable overnight pet sitting in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings while you’re away. I follow your pet’s normal routine closely, including evening and morning care, feeding, walks, medications, and plenty of affection. With attentive overnight presence and regular updates, you can rest easy knowing your pets and home are safe, cared for, and treated with the same love and respect I would give my own. I am always happy to send pictures of your pet to you while you're away as I know you miss them as much as they miss you.
About: I have experience working in a dog daycare where I developed strong skills in managing groups of dogs, understanding their behaviors, and ensuring their safety and well-being. During my time there, I became adept at recognizing the individual needs of each dog, which helps me create a nurturing and enjoyable environment. Pet care is apart of my daily routine. I make it a priority to ensure my dog is well taken care of and happy. Each day starts with feeding and taking her for walks, which not only keeps them healthy but also helps me start my day with some fresh air and exercise. Throughout the day, I make sure to spend quality time with her whether it’s playing, or just cuddling. I find that this interaction is rewarding for both me and my pet providing emotional support and stress relief. At home, I have a routine for my pet that includes feeding her , making sure she has fresh water. I also focus on mental and physical stimulation by providing toys and dedicating time for exercising. This not only keeps her active but also strengthens our bond. I check for any basic signs of health issues, such as changes in behavior or appetite. When walking pets, I use a sturdy leash and harness to keep them safe and secure. I’m mindful of their behavior and the environment around us, ensuring we stay clear of potential hazards. I make walks enjoyable by allowing them to explore their surroundings.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Murfreesboro 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
