“Leanne does an awesome job! She takes great care of Lucky and the house as well. We are very happy with her and definitely would love to have her again!”
“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 such a great sitter for our black lab, Dakota! She was very communicative and sent pictures regularly. She was very respectful of our home and took great care of Dakota. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“sydney is an absolute dream come true!!! she kept me up to date with my boys while i was gone, walked them, and even kept my house is great condition. the definition of stress free! will definitely use again!”
“Alexis was great with the dogs and the house! She sent plenty of pictures, played with the dogs and kept me updated every step of the way. Will definitely use her again!”
“Melissa is amazing! She stayed with my pup who required extra attention due to his separation anxiety and he’s grieving the loss of his sister of all 11 years of his life. She provided lots of updates during her stay and lots of pictures. Walker looked happy and extremely well cared for in every single one. I was very anxious about leaving him since he required extra attention and is on some new meds but Melissa was wonderful and I never wondered for a second how things were going while I was away. I know we have a new friend who we will rebook with any time. Thank you, Melissa!!”
“Lindsey has been extremely accommodating with my crazy schedule. She is a kind, amicable pet sitter who I recommend. She took care of my 3 dogs and 2 cats effortlessly, and I promise they are quirky and come with a list of duties. She left the house spotless, and even moved in furniture boxes!! Have already rebooked.”
“Sonny was great. He sent us photos during our trip and everyone was happy and healthy upon our return. It's very nice to be able to have a peace of mind especially when your animals have special needs.”
“Elyssa was wonderful! I received daily pictures and updates as to how my animals were doing. And I appreciated both. It made my vacation much more relaxing, not to have to worry about my babies while I was gone. I would highly recommend Elyssa and I will be using her again.”
“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!”
About: Hi everyone, I’m Bre! I tried Rover briefly back in 2022 before becoming a full-time foster dog mom. I’m excited to give it another try! I work a normal Monday-Friday office job but I work next door to my apartment community! So I can walk over to take dogs on walks multiple times a day. My fiancé works from home so he will be there all day as well. Pets are my favorite roommates! I live in a beautiful apartment community that’s full of dogs. I do have permission to dog sit from management! Dogs are welcome to free roam my apartment
“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.”
“Christopher was an amazing sitter for my dog. Very attentive, kept me updated, and kept the place super clean. My dog was still adjusting to his new routine and he kept it up, and kept me updated throughout the stay. Would definitely book him again! Thank you again so much! :)”
“My pups rate Jabe their max of 8 paws - and if they had more Paws, he would get them! Great communicator with us humans, and also takes great care of the house. And on this last trip, I needed a file from the computer that I left at home. Yes he’s the guy that you can also trust with your password.”
“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.”
“Aubrey was so amazing! This was my first time using Rover for my animals and she communicated so well. Showed up when she said she would and kept me posted the entire time. And sent such cute pics!”
“Allison followed the dog and house sitting rules that I left for her and always checked with me when she was uncertain, which I liked. Great communication and left the house in great shape once she left.My dog seemed to enjoy her time with Allison, would definitely book again.”
“Emma was absolutely fantastic!! Handled my cat and golden retriever well. Even when they got into treats unexpectedly- she was prepared and ready. Would recommend and rebook again!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Nashville is $55
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Nashville
Liah is so lovely! She took wonderful care of Gus while I was away and followed every instruction I left to a tee. She took him on fun outings, kept him happy and active, and was respectful of my home and space the whole time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again for my Gussey boy!
Erin is the absolute best!.She takes care of our 3 pups with the utmost of care. Tending very carefully to each individual personality. She sends us the best updates that we love reading in tons of pictures. High level of attention to detail and care, she really pays attention and notices all the nuances.The dogs are well cared for, exercised and loved on. Would highly recommend Erin to anyone looking.
We cannot recommend Riley and Victoria enough! They watched our two dogs for an entire week, and from the moment we left, we knew our babies were in the best hands. They checked in frequently with updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear how much they genuinely care for animals, and our dogs were happy, comfortable, and loved the entire time. Coming home, we were amazed to find the house absolutely spotless, everything was clean, organized, and exactly as we left it (if not better!). Finding people you can fully trust with your pets is rare, and we can honestly say we wouldn’t trust our babies with anyone else. Riley and Victoria went above and beyond, and we are so grateful for the incredible care they provided.
We were very happy with Andile and would absolutely book with her again! From the first meet and greet, she was warm, personable, and easy to talk to. Our corgi Merlin, who doesn't always warm up to new people right away, took to her immediately and quickly became her shadow during the stay. Merlin is still recovering from ACL surgery, so it was important to us to find someone who could be home with the pets most of the time. Andile was wonderful about that and gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She took excellent care of our three dogs and two cats and sent plenty of updates and photos. We came home to happy pets, a well-cared-for home, and the feeling that everything had gone smoothly while we were away. We highly recommend Andile and would not hesitate to book with her again. In fact, we tried to schedule her as she was heading out the driveway. We were sad she was going to be out of town the weekend we need her.
Emily is truly an angel! She took the utmost care of my Sophie and kept me continually updated with pictures and videos throughout the duration of my trip which put my naturally anxious heart at ease. Emily is absolutely my new go-to! Couldn’t speak highly enough!

FAQs for House Sitting - Nashville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Nashville on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 2,512 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.
