“Ellen is my go-to Rover whenever I have to go out of town. My kitties love her and she always takes the time and effort to capture many great photos and leaves a thorough visit summary. Highly recommend!”
“I was so grateful that Tahreem was able to step in at the last minute to check on my cats when another sitter had to cancel unexpectedly. She played with my cat that will come out & sent pictures every day. My other cat is shy & hides very well.”
“Hannah was great to work with! We will definitely be using her again in the future. She was super communicative and sent great updates and photos. Our cat is shy with new people but after one visit he warmed right up to Hannah and seemed to really enjoy her company during her visits!”
About: I have had dogs and cats all of my life and my dogs have all lived very long and healthy lives. I’ve adopted them and taken in strays, including one that was pregnant and then had 8 very healthy puppies which we cared for, weaned and found permanent homes for. Several of my dogs have lived very long senior lives (21!) and I can give medications and special diets. I’ve also transported many dogs, large and small, to the vet. I take my dogs to the dog parks on a regular basis and have taken them on long trips too. I am available to dog walk and also watch them in fenced-in yards for potty breaks and play. I produced several “Pet Care" series for HGTV, DIY Network and TNN, including dog care segments with Dr. Craig Prior, owner of Murphy Road Animal Hospital and a very popular and well-known Nashville veterinarian, who was also my personal vet for many years. I’m retired so I’m available all days and times. And I love taking photos and videos of pets and would be able to share updates for clients. I am currently retired and am available all days and times. I do volunteering on a regular basis but can adjust that schedule as needed. I also do freelance Marketing and Development including grant writing for nonprofits, on my own time schedule. I have a fenced-in back hyard for my own dogs but also take them on walks and to the dog park. So I would be able to walk dogs as needed. I also know about safety in a home, including keeping food, liquids, cleaners and materials away from pets. My own Beagle can get ninto things easily so I always put things up. My dogs do not use crates but I know how to crate dogs too.
“Great with communication, and updates throughout the visits. Took extra time to make sure she was able to play with both cats and showed them plenty of attention. Would highly recommend”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with Haley as she watched my cat Archie for a few days. She sent pictures everyday and I could see Archie was comfortable with her day one! I could tell she loved Archie and took care of him as if he were her own. Highly recommend!”
“Rachel was absolutely amazing with our cats! Not only had we recently introduced a new cat into our family, but we were traveling for one of our longest times away ever! We could tell from her communications and pictures that they were happy and cared for. We have very social and loving cats, and Rachel kept them feeling safe. She went WAY ABOVE the job description and helped with relationships of the cats, health, and even a little home emergency! I feel so lucky to have found her and would contact her immediately if I knew I needed a pet sitter again, or if any of my friends and family needed a pet sitter. Thanks so much, Rachel! 10 out of 10 recommend!”
“Sarah was great with my cat cheddar, she went above and beyond with her visits, and if available I would continue to use her with both of our animals. She was prompt courteous and always cleaned, and locked up behind herself!”
About: Ever since I was little, I’ve had an irresistible urge to stop and say hello to every animal I see, whether they have paws, feathers, scales, or hooves! I often joke that one of my biggest regrets is not becoming a veterinarian, but caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am.🩷 Being around pets genuinely fills my heart with joy. I love getting to know their unique personalities, making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. Whether your pet loves playtime, long walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and caring companion nearby, I’m happy to provide the attention they deserve.🫶🏼🐾 I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. You can count on me to be reliable, patient, loving, and attentive to your pet’s needs. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for you, and lots of tail wags (or purrs!) along the way.✨ I have a full-time job but I get off at 5pm (Mon-Fri) and honestly I don’t mind using that extra time to spend it with some furry friends. Also I am flexible on weekends! I would ask and take note of any instructions. Other than that, I’d be playing, cuddling, teaching tricks, talking to them or showing them off to my family and friends (specially my mom). If the pet is asleep I’d be reading a book or watching a movie but close by. I enjoy their company all the way!
“Sara was so sweet and responsive! My cat had a great time with her and adjusted so quickly to boarding thanks to sara. We got regular picture updates and our cat had an overall wonderful experience.”
“Yan did a great job with my two cats! One of my cats is really particular about things and she adjusted great to his needs. So so happy with her! I could travel with the peace of mind that my babies were well taken care of! Highly recommend, especially for owners with more particular cats!”
“Aubrey was wonderful sitting my two cats! She's very communicative and provides updates as needed. I came home to try very happy cats, so I know they just loved her! I will certainly have Aubrey cat sit again.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Nashville
Not only was Meredith attentive & loving to our cats, they were so funny to hear from! We thoroughly enjoyed their pictures & updates while we travelled (they even left little doodles of our cats 🥹). We invited them to make themselves at home and they made sure to leave it as clean & cozy as when we left. Would absolutely book again!
Julia has been amazing with Ziggy!! First time leaving him and I felt completely comfortable and confident leaving him in her hands!! Julia is punctual, responsible and has great communication! She initiated a meet and greet beforehand which was a great way to start! Ziggy loved her and the co stand updates helped put me at ease!! Highly recommend!!
Logan did a wonderful job taking care of Holly and my three cats, Dolly, Ted, and Logan! She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated throughout each visit. I always received notifications through Rover when she started and finished her visits, along with pictures so I could see how everyone was doing. She made sure Holly was fed, spent time playing with her, and gave her plenty of attention. She also checked on the cats, making sure their automatic feeder and litter box were working properly and that they had plenty of food. It was great having the peace of mind knowing all four of my pets were being well cared for while I was away. I really appreciate Logan's help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter. I'll definitely use her again! Thank you, Logan! 😊
Piper is THE BEST!! This was her second time coming and taking care of my two cats, and I couldn’t recommend her more. Not only is she really attentive, but she really makes an effort to keep you updated! She always sends lots of pictures & goes above and beyond with her care. I can tell how much of an affinity she has for animals and how much they seem to genuinely love her (my cats were all over her from their first time meeting her). She’s my go-to!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Nashville is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
