“Leanne is the best. Makes me feel very secure leaving my precious baby with her. She leaves everything exactly like you left it…I can’t even tell she’s been here. You will never regret leaving your babies in her hands.”
“Dannie was flexible, kind, and easy to work with. He provided care under unique + high maintenance circumstances where he accommodated 1) the need for flexible timing and location while I traveled to town for work and 2) to care of my dog who requires constant vigilance to manage a subtle injury where inattention could result in immediate paralysis.”
“Teresa was incredible! She sent wonderful photos throughout her stay and was so flexible and good at communication! Would recommend her for any service.”
“Elyssa is awesome! Her background and experience was what caught our attention, but she really was wonderful while she stayed at our house with our pup. She went above and beyond to keep the house in order and keep our little one happy. We will definitely use her again and encourage others to do the same.”
“She was an absolute delight. Took excellent care of my home and my fur baby. Looking forward to having Zubin sit Duke again. And he loved every minute of the attention and walks. Great communication and updates. BIG THANKS and APPRECIATION!”
“Sophie immediately put my dogs at ease. Not only did she make sure their basic needs were met, she made sure they were thriving. I was a little worried one of them was going to trade me in for her. 🤣 she was also fantastic at communicating with me through out her stay, sending a lot of pics and asking questions/sending status updates. Sophie will be my go-to pet sitter from here on out!”
“Madison was a wonderful pet and house sitter. When I came home, both of my pets exhibited signs of low anxiety. My home was cared for and tidy. Madison was a great communicator leading up to and during the stay. I would hire her again anytime.”
“Aubrey was great with our lab mix who is a very particular and anxious pup! She also had to give our dog antibiotics while we were gone as well. Aubrey sent tons of pictures and updates everyday so I was never left wondering how she was doing. Would definitely recommend to everyone and have Aubrey back again to watch our pup!”
“Melissa was a wonderful dog sitter! She took the best care of my girls and treated them like her own. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and communicative sitter. She also took great care of my home.”
“Chris showed our dog man a very nice time while we went away, and left our home cleaner than we left it ! We will definitely be sniffing the streets for his servicing the next time we have to leave town.”
About: I’ve been caring for my family’s pets since I was 6 years old, and my love for dogs has only grown from there. Over the years, I’ve become the trusted sitter for friends and family when they go out of town, work long days, or need an extra hand. I genuinely treat every pet like family — I even call my friends’ dogs my nieces and nephews. I’m patient, attentive, and loving, and I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is currently very flexible since I’m no longer tied to a traditional 9–5. I have plenty of availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they get the attention, care, and consistency they’re used to. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or stopping by for a walk or drop-in visit, I’ll make sure they feel secure, loved, and well cared for. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, leash safety, medications, house rules, and any special details that help your pet feel at ease. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel confident while you’re away.
“Lindsey took such good care of Keiko while we were on vacation! This was the first time that we left our dog with someone other than a family member and she can be difficult and stubborn at times so we were nervous about how it would go but Lindsey made sure she was well taken care of and Keiko felt comfortable the whole time! We will be rebooking with Lindsey whenever we can in the future!”
“Sarah was super friendly and responsive! She sent updates with photos and my animals were clearly happy and well taken care of when I returned from my trip. She also was very respectful of my space and left it spotless! I would definitely trust her to take care of my animals again”
“My two dogs loved Erin. One of them is a rescue that has extremely high anxiety, and I was shocked when she sent a pic of him snuggled up to her! That alone told me all I needed to know about Erin. We will definitely be using her again. She kept an eye on the house and it was clean despite my dog's habit of tracking in mud. She also was great to stay an extra night with our babies when I accidentally reserved the wrong dates. I highly recommend Erin.”
“Kelly took great care of our cat and dog while we were out of town! She sent consistent updates and we never once worried about them while we were gone! Could not recommend her more!”
“Sydney is a great sitter! My guy was so calm when I got home and seemed well-adjusted. She provided photos and updates while I was away, and she was accommodating when my flight was canceled and I needed additional care for McGee. We would definitely book her again!”
“I enjoyed Tiera looking after Diamond , She followed the minor instructions in caring for my Princess, She’s a wonderful sitter I know Diamond was pleased with her as well ….. Thank you so Much 😍”
“Katherine was amazing with our boy, Koopa, while we were on a work trip. She was very responsive, responsible and Koop was pampered while we were away. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Austin was great with Mara! He sent detailed updates and great photos. She also had an ear infection and he was on top of giving her meds as well. Will definitely use him again.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Nashville is $55

Annalei was AMAZING!!! I wish I would have met her sooner because she gave such amazing care to our high energy Aussie. She is a great communicator and even washed the sheets she used in our guest bedroom after staying at our home. You’ll get TONS of pictures and videos of your dog having a blast with her 🥰 I would hire her again in a heartbeat!
Thanks to Nadyne for watching our 5 month old puppy while we were away. She was great at communicating and sending video updates! We appreciate her being accommodating with our schedules and her loving care while we were away. Will definitely be booking again!
Kaitlyn was a fantastic sitter for our 2 yo pup. Our pup is hesitant around new people and Kaitlyn made her comfortable almost immediately. Very responsive and lots of updates throughout the week. She was also a great house guest, leaving the house in better shape than when we left. Highly recommend!!
Katie always goes above and beyond for our dog, Kya. She always gives Kya lots of playtime and exercise. She is great at communicating with us, she always sends us great photos of our girl and updates us on everything happening while we are gone. We know Kya is in the best hands with Katie!
Leanne is absolutely the BEST dogsitter. We just returned from being gone 1.5 weeks, and never had to worry about the care our sweet dog Deacon was receiving- we knew he was in great hands! Just the right amount of communication and always willing to pitch in with anything that comes up with your dog or home while you are away. We 100% recommend Leanne!
Nicole went above and beyond watching our 2 cats and puppy while we were gone for a week! We will be working with her for all of our trips in the future! During her house stay, she followed all instructions perfectly, and went above and beyond with individualized report cards for each pet, ensuring the house was clean, and even doing laundry for the items she used!!
Paige was wonderful to us! She communicates with updates and pictures. She brought our mail inside, packages and even wash the sheets of the bed she slept in and washed our dishes in the dishwasher. We definitely recommend her. She gave a lot of love to our goldendoodle. Thanks Paige for staying on top of everything.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Nashville on Rover is $54.39 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,530 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:
- 95% 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.
