“Dannie was beyond exceptional. They made me and my dog feel well taken care of. It was my first time leaving Penny alone for the weekend and she may have had more fun with Dannie than she does with me. Will 💯 book with them again! Thank you Dannie!”
“Allison was amazing! Darby was so happy when we arrived home - and the house was well taken care of and clean. She sent me adorable pictures of Darby while we were gone, which made being away so much easier. We'll definitely be calling Allison again!”

“If you are looking for peace of mind and someone that will care for your pup as you would then look no further. Aubry was fantastic and really made me feel comfortable! She was in contact with me daily and also sent me pictures. I had never left Spike with anyone so I was a bit nervous, but she took away any anxiety that I had about leaving him for a few days. Spike loved her and he was truly cared for by her. She also came highly recommended by apartment management as well! I will definitely be using her again and I recommend her highly!!!”
About: Hello there, welcome to my page! I love love love animals, but I will say that dogs are the most near and dear to my heart. I grew up with 2 cocker spaniels and have experienced their puppy, adult, senior and end-of-life care stages. Additionally, from around January 2020 to July 2021 I was a step-in pawrent for my brother’s two fur babies—a border collie and a 60 lb mutt. Other friends and family have trusted me to care for their fur babies as well! The common theme is is that all the pets have found me to be the fun, spoiling (with limits of course), auntie! Of note, I had to step away from pet boarding and sitting for a few years as I was completing my residency in internal medicine. I am now back and more available as I wrap up my fellowship training in Hospice and Palliative Medicine. I usually work a Monday-Friday 8am-4pm type schedule (with some slight variations some weeks). I live in a one bedroom apartment (672 sq ft). I am able to store a crate or other items your pet needs to feel comfortable. I am a big fan of communication and am more than happy to provide updates and photos throughout the day!

It was great to have Emma watch Layla for a few days and stay at our house. She was a great communicator, took great care of Layla and left the house spotless for when I got back. Would recommend Emma to anyone and look forward to hopefully having her back again soon!
Rachel was a dream! We had a last minute emergency and she was able to watch Tobey on short notice. He loved her and they had the best time together. She gave us constant updates and we knew Tobey and the house were well cared for. I would recommend Rachel to absolutely anyone. She is amazing!
If you’re a dog parent who gets nervous about leaving your pup with someone new, BOOK ANNALEI. Seriously. ❤️ I travel constantly for work and normally only trust my Frenchie, Dapper, with a few very close family members and friends. He’s my whole world and, to put it mildly, he’s high maintenance. 😂 He has skin allergies, heat sensitivity, limited exercise, and a BIG personality. He needs someone attentive, responsible, great at following directions, and genuinely caring about his safety and happiness. Annalei was phenomenal from our first meet and greet. She remembered everything I told her, used incredible common sense, and went above and beyond while staying with Dapper over Labor Day weekend. She sent TONS of pictures and videos, exactly the right amount, and I always knew he was safe, happy, snuggled, and loved. Seeing how comfortable and content he was gave me complete peace of mind. She didn’t just take amazing care of my dog. She left my apartment spotless and even washed and dried all of my bedding. After a long day of travel, coming home to a clean apartment and my happy pup was the BEST. As a crazy dog mom, I know how scary it is to trust someone new with your baby. If you’re reading reviews trying to decide whether you can trust Annalei, take this as your sign. You absolutely can. I will 100% book her again! 🐾❤️
I found myself in major bind when a sitter I hired didn’t show after I had already left for my trip and Lauren saved the day! Not only was she able to help me on super short notice, but she immediately put my mind at ease by being extremely communicative and asking thoughtful questions about my pups care. She sent great pictures and kept me updated throughout her stay. I can’t recommend Lauren enough!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Nashville on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,520 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:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
