“Michelle is my first and only choice when it comes to caring for my dogs. She treats your fur babies like they’re her own, giving them love, attention, and the best care while you’re away. Knowing they’re with her gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate.”
“Lillie stayed with my two dogs in our home for 10 days . She came over to meet them and again right before we left . Her communication prior to us leaving and while we were gone ,was awesome. She also accommodated big changes to our plans . The dogs did great and she sent pictures which made me happy ! This is my first experience with Rover and leaving someone I had just met with "my kids". Lillie did a great job. I would recommend her and will use her again .”
“Karen did a wonderful job sitting for our geriatric greyhound in our home! Very reliable and put our minds at ease with regular updates and pictures. Would highly recommend!”
“It was a pleasure to have Alyssa in our home. Her availability was exactly what we needed for our older dog and her communication with us was great! Our dog was well cared for and our home was clean when we arrived back home. Will definitely book her again for future trips!”
“Morgan was very friendly and receptive of all the house sitting instructions I provided. She took great care of my anxious dog Athea and my three cats, even on last-minute booking. I will definitely be rebooking and would recommend her to others :)”
About: I know that trusting someone with your pets and your home is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible by providing dependable, loving care while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as I can. I care for every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of attention, affection, and patience. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions, administer oral medications if needed, and care for senior pets who may need a little extra time and gentleness. Communication is one of my top priorities. You’ll receive regular updates with photos and videos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or simply enjoys relaxing at home, I’ll tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. My goal is to earn your trust and become the sitter you can confidently rely on whenever you need dependable in-home pet care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I intentionally schedule my days around the pets I’m caring for. Whether I’m providing overnight care or drop-in visits, I make it a priority to be dependable, on time, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I enjoy spending quality time with animals, so I make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, affection, fresh food and water, potty breaks, and any medications or special care they need. I also keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages, so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that keeps pets happy, comfortable, and following their normal routine in the comfort of their own home. I provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable and relaxed in the environment they know best. I believe pets feel happiest when they can keep their normal routine, surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and spaces. During each visit or overnight stay, I follow your instructions carefully for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, walks (if requested), medications, and any special needs your pet may have. I provide plenty of love, attention, and companionship while making sure your home is respected and kept secure. I know every pet has their own personality and comfort level, so I take the time to get to know what makes them happy—whether that’s extra cuddles, playtime, a quiet presence, or simply maintaining their usual schedule. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while giving you peace of mind with regular updates and photos during your time away.
“Kevin was great! Very responsive with my check-ins, and had no problems with any of the medications and instructions we left him. We’d love to have him watch the pups again in the future!”
“Complete peace of mind! Amie is a wonderful pet sitter! She stayed in our home and took care of it like her own. We had total confidence that our pets were safe and loved. She sent many pictures and updates and was easy to communicate with. Don’t hesitate to book with Amie. You won’t find a better pet sitter”
About: I've had dogs in my home all my life. I have experience caring for a variety of breeds and sizes. I love dogs and will care for each one with whatever is needed. I'm not afraid to try something new. I create stories and share them with others. Whether it's through my YouTube channel or publishing books, I enjoy stories. I may even read to my pets my stories or other stories just for fun! I have a fenced yard, and currently have two puppies (about 1 year) that are staying for now. We have a dog crate, so I can move them around as needed. We're hoping to get a puppy of our own again when these young ones move out. I do have vision and hearing issues, which can result in some trouble seeing or balance issues. I can handle big dogs, but smaller is naturally easier.
About: I can work with dogs that have anxiety and aggressive. And cats too and any other animals. As I love animals of any size big or small Saturday-Sunday I can do anytime Monday-Friday after 2:30pm unless I'm staying in the house sitting and petsitting. Then time doesn't really matter as much then. Environment would be your home as I rent and they don't allow petsitting. Depends if yard is fence area if it is then I will play ball with them.
“Christina always does a great job! Great at communicating and our dogs are so well loved while we are gone. I never worry about them at all when she is here with them.”
“Nadia was a joy to work with. Very professional. She kept us informed on the days events. Sent pics & videos of her interaction with our kitty's! Put my mind at ease, since I've never left my 2 year old cats alone. Plus she maintained security of my shop & belongings. I would highly recommend Nadia. We will always request her. If your looking for someone that is on top of their game + trustworthy, its Nadia”
“Hayden did an amazing job taking care of our very anxious dog and two cats while we went on vacation. She kept us updated with pictures and communicated any questions or concerns immediately. I would recommend Hayden for any pet care you need!”
About: I’ve owned and have taken care of multiple animals throughout the years! From house animals to some animals. I love our furry friends! :) . I’m working a part-time job currently where I work every other weekend, I’ll be able to stop in throughout the day on the days I do and don’t work! I have 2 friendly dogs, 2 friendly cats, a rabbit and a rooster! I keep them all safe and healthy, and I have a great bond with them!
“Cindy was a great sitter for our pup. Cindy followed all directions provided, was attentive to our dog and had really good communication while sitting. Our home was left in great condition also. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Karen was so super sweet and fantastic with our doggos. She spent a lot of time with them at our home, was very easy to work with and great at sending pics and keeping me updated. My dogs are happy”
About: I grew up on a farm and I know my way around animals. I currently have two dogs. The youngest one, Phoebe, I was the primary care taker when she was a puppy since my parents were at work and I was at home during covid doing online school. My second dog, Beau came to our family when he was 4.5 years old because his previous owner couldn’t take care of him. I’ve also dog sat dogs from friends and family growing. I’m a big dog lover and looking forward to working with you. I am currently working part time at Carls Supermarket as a deli clerk. I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and every other weekend. I would love a heads up 3 days in advance however i’m open to one day or same day notice in some circumstances. I have large back yard and a lovely neighborhood to walk and play with your pooch. I do have a park 5 minutes from my home as well. My yard is unfenced however I have a dog run and other extended leashes so your dog can play. I have crates if you need to crate them as well. I do have two dogs at home. They are not aggressive but if preferred I can keep them away from your dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 459 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Nashville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Nashville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Nashville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Nashville 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Nashville. On Rover:

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.
