About: I've taken care of large and small animals all my life, I grew up taking care of my aunt's horses with her, and I've pet sat and house sat for the past couple of years and have been very successful. I am no longer a college student so my schedule is way more open! I love all animals small or large! I am currently looking for a part-time job, I will always be available on the weekends and I should be available in the mornings and late mornings almost every day. I have a big fenced-in backyard, and I own two friendly dogs and an indoor-outdoor cat that stays away from most people and other dogs who come to visit so there is no worry about him if you're worried about your animal around cats.
About: For as long as I could remember I’ve been my family’s go-to pet sitter. Anytime my Grandmother had a doctors appointment or my Aunt and Uncle left town, I would be their first choice. I love animals and caring for them, making them comfortable when their families are gone is not an easy task but easing their anxiety and keeping them comfortable is a very rewarding job. I’ve worked with rover in the past when I was in high school and it was a great experience. I am currently working part time but my schedule is relatively flexible. As far as boarding goes there is and will always be someone at the house caring for the dogs 24/7. I have a large plot of land adjacent to my house for the puppies to play in. I currently have three very friendly small dogs who love to play and make friends.

I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable pet owner who knows how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, some extra playtime, lots of cuddles, or simply a little company while you’re away, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, medications, walks, bedtime routines, or anything else that helps your pet feel at home. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing. I am available most weekends and weekdays daytime early morning, lunch time and evenings after 5pm! I work on Six Forks in Raleigh, NC and am flexible in and out of office Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so they can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. In your home, I’ll respect your space and follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special routines. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings to help keep your pet safe.
“Eden was just what we needed to help cover a gap in our schedules. Our dog Carson is strong-willed and strong bodied at 40lbs of solid muscle. Eden had no problem handling both aspects. Carson walked further for longer and put herself straight to bed from exhaustion every night. She truly enjoyed her walks with Eden almost more than she enjoys walking with us! That speaks volumes for Eden’s care and skill in giving our girl the quality exploration and exercise time she needs. Will definitely use Eden again for future needs.”
About: I am a work from home mom who loves pet sitting. I started this journey a few years ago, and has had the privilege of hosting several dogs of all ages, personalities and sizes. My children absolutely love animals, especially dogs, so there will be lots of cuddles and love from us. I take dog sitting very seriously, so I am very careful, and I always aim to please my pet parents, so I am always sending pictures, videos, and making sure your baby is happy and well taken care of. I am big on staying fit and healthy, so I take daily walks to get my steps in. I am very accommodating, so nothing is ever too much for me. I’ve had pet parents ask me to scramble eggs for their fur babies and put it on top of their dog food, and I’ve also had pet parents tell me to only feed their fur baby with a spoon, so please don’t hesitate to ask for any special request, because I aim to please! I work from home during the week and I have lots of down-time allowing me to interact and play with your fur baby . I am off during weekends and holidays I have a big house with an unfenced yard, and a loving family that will play and love on your fur baby. We will take daily walks, play outdoors, and have lots of play time and cuddles.
“Nicole was great with our two pups. We were in town for the weekend and she came and took great care of them while we were away for an event one evening. She was Extremely professional and responsive. We would definitely use her again if we were in town.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life ranging from 175 to 50 pounds. My family also breeds dogs so I’m comfortable with all ages. I have dog sat for numerous family and friends and love all animals so your pet will get treated as if they were my own. I’ve also took care of dogs that take medication, are on special diets. I have a full time job but I make my own schedule so I will base that off of my schedule with rover. Pets will be well taken care of and took on walks.

I have plenty of yard for your pet/pets to play. I currently don’t have any other animals in the house and am waiting for my puppy to be born! Your pet will be allowed on furniture unless that is a rule you have then I will not go against it. I have plenty of toys, dog beds, and crates if needed.

About: I first started housesitting and pet sitting with the Rover app in 2020. I am comfortable and confident working with all sizes of dogs due to the wide variety of pets I cared for in Florida as well as Nebraska! A few of the services I provided were, dog walking, light dog grooming, basic gardening and housekeeping tasks. In one special case I cared for a miniature schnauzer with diabetes, I made sure his blood sugar was regular and gave him his insulin shot when needed. Like multiple other animals I’ve cared for I can follow their special diets if needed.. I’d love the opportunity to take of your pets and see what your city has to offer. I look forward to hearing from you! I work from home, so I will have lots of extra time to play with your pets! I also plan on taking multiple walks throughout the day. I will be sure to maintain a safe environment for your pets while you are away! I will stick to their regular routines to help them feel safe and comfortable.
About: Hello! I’m a long time pet lover and house sitter (of my own place) I have interacted with many pets of my friends and worked at animal shelters. My experience with pets starts in high school when I volunteered at the local animal shelter cleaning out kennels, grooming and playing with cats and dogs. I then graduated to being a pet auntie for my friends animals and then pet sitting for various clients. I love pets, they are adorable and I can’t wait until I can have my own! Until then, I guess I’ll just pet sit…. I work from home on most days, so my schedule is flexible enough to allow me to look after pets such as spending quality time, potty breaks, exercising via walks and playing with cat toys. When I care for pets in their home, I take care to read all of the instructions and look after the home. This can include administering medications, accommodating different diets and walking styles (such as the slow walkers, the sniffers, the neighborhood watchers). I make sure to leave the home the way I found it because that is what I would like if I was the pet parent.
About: Hey there! 🐾I have a true love and genuine passion for taking care and spending time with dogs and animals. cater specifically to each pets need, making sure they are not only getting taken care of, but paid attention to and loved throughout the entire stay. I have a back porch they have access to as well as a walkable park. I make sure pets are fed at the set times, and plenty of walks and trips to the neighborhood and nearby parks. Trips to get pup cups. I have a back porch the dogs can sit on. I make sure they are settled if I need to leave or work from home. I make sure the pets are in a safe environment, free the roam around, access to the porch and dog park. I provide toys and treats, and organize what owners have brought such as blankets, etc.
About: I've had dogs as pets since I've been a little girl so hand in hand. I've taken care of dogs since I've been a little girl. Every time my dad goes out of town. I watch the animals. I watch the neighbors dogs. Animals always love me because I treat them with the utmost respect and like my own children. I will make sure your dog uses the bathroom regularly. I will walk them if needed and I will show them lots of love so they will not even be sad while you are away. I can even take pictures with your dog and send you pictures and little updates in case you miss your little furry friend while you're on your trip. I love dogs so much and I've always wanted to make money doing something I love. That's why I have come to this app to work. Pet care fits in my daily and weekly routine. Right now I am in college and only have to focus on taking classes. So I have a lot of free time. Other than that, I have my own transportation and I can travel to different cities to watch your pets and your home!. I care for pets with the upmost respect. I follow all the rules given. If I have any questions at all I will text and call immediately. If watching your home I can also do some cleaning for you for when you get back so everything is in order.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Nashville
As always, a wonderful walk. Cheryl is always so conscientious about Recon‘s health. On hot days, she always makes sure that she brings his water bottle and water dish on those walks. And she always checks the pavement if they have to cross pavement to make sure it’s not too hot for his paws. And she gives my old boy plenty of time to just lay and roll in the shade of a tree on the grass.
Cheryl always does a fantastic job with Kobe. She goes above and beyond to care for him. She is very loving, attentive and caring. Today Kobe needed a little extra care, time and attention and Cheryl dud just that. She reached out to update me and offered to take him to the vet. She administered medication as requested. She also took time out to hand feed him to make sure that he ate, as he did not eat his breakfast this morning. She also gave him calming tablets, as it was too soon to take the medication. Thanks Cheryl for taking great care of our boy today as always 🙂

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Nashville is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 715 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Nashville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Nashville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Nashville after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Nashville. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
