“This was my first time ever using Rover and Teresa made a great first impression and did a great job taking my dog for a walk. I’d definitely call her again for taking my dog for a walk!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all size and kind for over 10 years. My own miniature dachshund and frenchie, as well as my family and friend’s pets who I care for as my own. I bell trained my dachshund to go potty outside and am well equipped to handle any reactive behavior. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule to play and walk dogs! I work around my meeting schedule so will vary by the week! I respect everyone’s home and will ensure your fur baby is love and cared for during visits! As a passionate rover sitter, I understand how special our animals are to us, so it’s very important for me to be attentive and make sure they are behaving normally and feel comfortable!
“Pepe had a great morning and got his workout in for the day! Gabe was a great communicator and great with Pepe. Thankful for accepting my last minute request.”
About: I have a knack for winning over pets, especially the anxious or nervous ones. I like to be a safe, unconditionally loving place for each and every one of them. I am a life coach, so I have a very fluid schedule with a lot of gaps. Care for animals easily fits into my schedule, or should I say, can easily match their schedule :) I treat your home (and your pets) as you would. There's a good chance your home would be even a little tidier after I leave. I want you to have the same, "ah, it's so nice to trust this person" feel I would want.
About: Since I was a child, I’ve been around many different kinds of pets. I grew up with great danes in the house, as well as multiple cats and other small rodents. Now my family owns a very happy doodle named Griffon. I grew up watching my family’s dogs as well as other dogs and cats in my neighborhood. Currently I live in Nashville with my 6 year old beagle named Emmy. I love all kinds of animals and would love to meet your furbaby! I’m currently taking care of the home full time so I can be as attentive as needed with your pet! I normally walk Emmy three times a day, making sure at least one walk is a long walk through a park so she gets a lot of good smells and mental stimulation. Since I live in an apartment downtown, I try to take my dog out as much as possible so she doesn’t feel like she’s stuck inside all day. For this reason I don’t do overnight stays at my apartment, but I would be more than willing to house sit for someone’s animal. I always make sure the pet in the home is adequately taken care of to their energy level, I used to take my families dog on runs with me if he seemed bored.
About: I have lived with and cared for pets since I was 5 years old. I grew up with 3 dogs and have had my own cat for 5 years now! I truly love animals and nothing brings me more joy than seeing that an animal is safe, loved, and getting the care that they need. Whether your pet is small or large, young or old, I can’t wait to make their day brighter and your life easier! I work from home part time and have a pretty flexible schedule. I can make most visits work, even with last minute notice! Late mornings to early evenings preferred, but I can be flexible. I will always be respectful of your things and leave your home just as I found it! I have experience with senior dogs and am comfortable administering medicine if need be.
“Ariana has been such a fabulous help and walker for my pup! He loves her, and she treats him like her own. I highly recommend her for your babies! Just don’t take my times😇 Just kidding! She is awesome!”
“I can’t say enough good things! Alexandra is the ultimate dog Walker! My dog is a pitt mix and she has lots of energy. She needed someone to walk her daily while I am in the office. Alexandra treats her so well and my dog loves her and I can tell it makes a HUGE different in my dogs day. Don’t hesitate to book Alexandra! She is trustworthy, kind and goes above and beyond for my dog. I will use her forever!”
“Kendra did a great job walking my dog, Chewie! She took him on long walks and sent me really nice pictures that reassured me he was happy and well cared for. I appreciated knowing he was in good hands, and I’d definitely use her again in the future.”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I'll cherish your furry friend as if they were my very own. Throughout my life I’ve had vizslas and golden retrievers, these breeds hold a special place in my heart. With extra time to give, I'm happy to share that love and care with your pet, offering a heartfelt and personalized pet-service experience they genuinely deserve. You can trust me to shower them with the attention, comfort, and affection they miss while you're away. Just as I always appreciated updates about my dog when using Rover, I'm more than happy to provide any level of updates you need to feel comfortable and connected during your time apart. I would love to have a pet of my own, but I’m waiting until I settle down from traveling so much. This is why I enjoy Rover, it gives me the opportunity to spend time with animals without compromising my other passion! My day job has flexibility of working from home or in the office. So I’m happy to work from home and provide the extra attention your pet needs while you’re away. Or if you prefer to keep them on a schedule similar to yours, happy to do what works best for you and your pet. As a devoted cat lover, I'll treat your feline like my own. I understand that every cat is unique, so let me know what your cat loves, whether it's playful activities, cozy hideaways, or just some quiet company. Your cat will receive the attention, comfort, and care they deserve while you're away. I'm here to provide you with the peace of mind you need, keeping you updated as often as you'd like.
About: I’ve had dogs in my house ever since I was born! I am a current graduate nursing student, so I have an inherent love for taking care of all humans / animals! Growing up in my childhood home, one of my collies, Sasha, is very chill, low maintenance and quiet, while my other collie, Charlie, is hyper and playful, but gets scared easily. I’ve also had experience with taking care of my brother’s dog and my high school advisor’s dog, and both of them needed constant attention and play time - on the whole, I have experience with lots of dog personalities! If I take care of your dog, I’m also happy to take/provide any pictures and make your dog/pet feel like a model! Doggie cuddles and massages are on the house :) Because I’m currently in a graduate program at a nursing school, I only have time to dog sit / walk two-three times a week, but on those days I am free, I can give my full and undivided attention to the pet(s)! I cannot take care of pets in my own home, but can certainly be flexible and adjust to whatever the owner needs me to do when it comes to coming to their home / walking their dog!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years, and one thing I always prioritize is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s overnight stays, playtime, walks, or just relaxing at home, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet, so I make communication a priority. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know how your dog is doing 🤍 I keep a calm, clean, and safe environment and only take a limited number of dogs at a time to make sure each one gets plenty of attention and care. I’ve worked with dogs of all personalities and will always adjust to your dog’s needs, routines, and energy level to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I’m a full-time dental student with a consistent schedule, which allows me to provide structured care. I also come home during lunch and dedicate my evenings and weekends fully to pet care. I’ll follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I live in an apartment, so we do not have yards. However, we have a dog park on the property and lots of local parks for some fun and good exercise.
About: Hi there! I'm an ICU nurse who just moved to Nashville, and I'm looking forward to meeting some new four-legged friends. With 6 years of pet care experience, I'm a truly paw-some choice for your furry family member. You can rest assured your pet will get the same attentive and loving care I give my patients—just with more belly rubs! I'm excited to leash my enthusiasm and meet your dog soon. Im currently working 3 days a week as an ICU nurse, my schedule varies. But on my days off your furry friend is my priority! I believe a happy dog is one with a great routine! I'll make sure your dog gets all the fun and exercise they need. This includes sticking to their usual feeding and walking schedule, and of course, adding in lots of playtime and snuggles. We'll go on exciting walks around the neighborhood, play with their favorite toys, and I'll make sure they feel loved and comfortable in a stress-free environment. I'm all about making their time with me feel like a vacation, not just a stay.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life, both big and small. I currently volunteer with Wags & Walks and also serve as a foster when available! I love the energy of dogs and just being around them. I work from home three days a week and work 10 min from my apartment if I have to drop in from work. I’m a very active person and love being outside! I have a dog run and live near a dog park! My neighbors also have pets. If necessary I can crate the dog but also don’t mind them being out in the apartment. Everything is put away well.
About: I've grown up with dogs throughout my entire life. From chihuahuas, to golden retrievers, to rescues I have had experience with a myriad of different dog breeds and personalities! On top of caring for, walking, and playing with the dogs my family owned, one of my earliest jobs was dog-sitting neighborhood dogs when their families were out of town. You can count on me to provide the same high quality care to your dogs that I would provide to my own. I am a current medical student in Nashville. As a result, most of my availability will fall on the weekends! My availability on Fridays would start around 6:30 pm and I can go to any time on Sunday. I will always respect your house rules and items when caring for your pets at your home. I will also respect and reinforce the way in which you have trained your pets (crate training, meal times, etc). I will always care for your pet to a high level of detail, making sure they have sufficient walks, making sure to clean up any mess they make, and making sure all of their needs are met!
About: I grew up on a farm so the care for all furry animals is somewhat second nature to me, especially to the good, bad, and the ugly. Over the years, I had my fair share of experience loving and looking after dogs, cats, sheep, horses, cows, and even chickens. My experience with dogs were primarily during my youth, and the sizes my pups were small to medium dogs. But, I never shy away from larger dogs, but that is to say traing for larger dogs would be an area where I would learn/grow to ensure that your pet is in good hands. I'm currently working full-time as an Architectural Designer, but I have an affinity to care for fur babies during my free time. My current schedule allows me to care for your pets during: WEEKENDS - all day MONDAY - Before 8, between 11-12, and after 5 FRIDAY - Before 8, between 11-13, and after 5 HOLIDAYS - ONLY - Easter weekend & 4th of July Under my care, your pupps to adult/senior dogs would expect: Daily Walks and Outdoor Play: I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise and fresh air tailored to their energy level. Interactive Play Sessions: From fetch to tug-of-war to puzzle toys, I’ll keep their mind and body engaged. Mental Enrichment Activities: I offer stimulating games like treat puzzles, training games, and sensory activities to keep them sharp and happy. Customized Routines: I adjust activities based on your pet’s age, breed, and personality — from active play for energetic pups to gentle strolls for seniors. Socialization Opportunities: (With your permission) I can introduce safe, supervised interactions with other friendly pets for healthy social enrichment. Training Reinforcement: I’ll happily practice basic commands and manners during our time together to support any training you’ve started/already established. Affection and Attention: Emotional health is important too! I make sure every pet gets quality cuddle time, encouragement, and loving care.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Nashville is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Nashville
Fantastic sitter! We were visiting from out of town and never used Rover before. Maimee was quick to respond and flexible when we needed to adjust the schedule. She was communicative and gave us peace of mind that our pup was well taken care of. Will absolutely book again with her when we return to Nashville.
lex is an incredible sitter—seriously, look no further! She is attentive to every detail, communicates wonderfully, and is truly the sweetest companion to our pups. When we needed help in a pinch, Alex jumped right in and cared for our girls, Lennon and Palmer, with house sitting for an entire week. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in the best hands. Lennon and Palmer received so much love, affection, and attentive care right in their own home—their safe place. Alex is an exceptional sitter, and we highly recommend her for all your pet-care needs, from dog walks and drop-ins to house sitting. We are so grateful for the wonderful care she gave our girls!
Elizabeth rescued me as I needed a sitter last minute to attend an event in downtown Nashville. Unfortunately a few of my other sitters prior to booking with Elizabeth had something come up. She is reliable, caring, attentive, & went above and beyond for my Miko! I would definitely request her again when visiting Nashville ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and you should also!!!
Olivia has been absolutely wonderful with our dog, Finley! She is dependable, kind, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Finley always comes home happy and well cared for, and we have complete peace of mind knowing she's in such good hands. Olivia is communicative, punctual, and goes above and beyond to make sure our pup gets great exercise and attention. We truly appreciate her professionalism and the care she puts into every visit. We highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Nashville on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,038 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 your Nashville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Nashville.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
