“Gabbi’s energy is unmatched! Brody and Ellie instantly took to her. This was our first time having any service for either of my fur babies. I would definitely recommend and request Gabbi and Justin on our next outing!”
About: I've been caring for pets since I was 13 years old, and my love for animals has only grown over the years. Growing up, I was surrounded by a wide variety of pets, including dogs, snakes and other animals, which gave me experience with different personalities, care routines, and needs. I currently own a large dog and serval reptiles. I have previously owned small dogs as well, so I'm comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and energy levels. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I'm committed to providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to their individual needs. I am currently a full time student at Middle Tennessee Stste University. This allows me the flexibility to do multiple check ups throughout the day, walk pets as needed, and do house stays so your pet can have the best experience possible. When caring for pets in my client's home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions (if needed), exercise routines, and any special care requests to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure while you're away.
“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.”
“Laurie is the best! She helped me out when I had a very last minute drop in visit request. She was so accommodating and my pup loved her! Highly recommend her for your fur babies.”
“Jessie is amazing, loves animals, reliable, and a great communicator! She is very good with our German shepherd and our dog loves her. Our dog is excited to see her each time we book Jessie. They go on walks, run around, and play frisbee.”
“Cassie was great with my big dogs and very communicative. This was my first time booking a pet sitter and she made the whole process comfortable. I highly recommend her and hope to book with her again.”
“Elizabeth was great. My two pets warmed up to her immediately. She was right on time, and she took photos and was even able to get photos of my cat (who usually doesn't like strangers and hides.) I will definitely use her in the future. She made me feel calm about leaving them at home. I didn't want to board them and spend their day in a cage, and it was a great decision.”
About: I’ve taken care of everything from dogs, to cats, and everything in between!! I’m experienced with medications and many more things. Got a strange request? I’m there for ya! I am free every night and happy to travel wherever needed!! I love to spend some nice quality time with your animal!! I’m happy to sit and knit or go on as many walks as needed! I love to meet new people and of course their fur babies!! I am happy to provide a safe space for each animal to live and play!!
“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??”
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!
About: I've spent my whole life living with dogs and being surrounded by animals! I started truly taking care of my animals when I was 14. Making sure their water bowl was full, feeding them when my parents couldn't, taking them out to let them sunbathe or just frolic, playing with them, and taking them on walks. I know how to take care of dogs all ages! I have experience with high energy dogs, low energy dogs, and anxious dogs. I also have experience with dogs that go through seizures. My second oldest dog, Chilis (yes I named him that when I was about 5 or 6 😂) has had seizures since my family adopted him many years ago. I've learned how to help him through these rough times and bring him back to a normal state afterwards. I love animals so much and it would mean the world to me that you would trust me to watch your precious fur babies! I currently just moved back home where I live with 3 dogs. So in my everyday life I'm making sure they're taken care of. I cannot care for your pets at my personal home but I can care for my clients pets in their own home where they are most comfortable! I will make sure they get plenty of outside time, that their water bowl is always full (and food bowl depending on how my client feeds their animals), I will take my clients pet out for walks, play with them and even cuddle with them if they want me too! I also would love any advice from you on how I can make your pet feel the happiest and safest while I'm with them!

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I’ve cared for family pets (including our 100-pound “pup” and cross-eyed kitty!) as well as the pets of friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and giving each dog the attention and affection they deserve. I currently have open availability, which allows me to be flexible and accommodate a variety of schedules and needs. I’m able to provide consistent care for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. Every pet is different, so I like to follow their usual routine as closely as possible. I’ll make sure they get the care they need—whether that’s walks, playtime, meals, or just company and attention. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll treat them like my own and keep you updated with plenty of pictures and messages while you’re away.

Shelley was great, we've used her services before and will continue in the future. Shelley was flexible with us when my husband and I had changes in our work schedules and she was accommodating with last minute changes. It was nice to know our babies were taken care of when needed! Shelley provides great comments/notes on her stays/drop-ins and I love getting pics of our pups playing together and having fun when we're unable to be home with them!
We absolutely love Ayla! She gives our baby girl Sunny so much love and care, and it means the world to us. She remembers all of Sunny’s different needs without even being asked and is so thoughtful about making sure she is comfortable and happy. Knowing Sunny is with someone who pays such close attention gives us tremendous peace of mind. We feel so lucky to have found her and cannot recommend her highly enough!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Murfreesboro is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,400 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Murfreesboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Murfreesboro. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
