About: I have always had dogs growing up! I helped take care of our elderly dog, giving him medicine and helping him up/down the stairs before he passed. And after him, we got 2 CRAZY puppies so I have helped with all stages when it comes to dogs! My schedule is very open this summer, so I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule, whether you need care during the week, on weekends, or at the last minute whenever possible. I am happy to follow any instructions you give me! I know how important it is for your animals to be cared for while you are gone. I love going on walks, so adding a furry companion would be perfect!
About: We consistently watch friends’ dogs and have grown up with dogs our whole life. Our friends and neighbors rely on us to take care of their loving pets. We get home earlier from work than others (4pm) and have all the time to love on your pet after school! We are teachers, so we get up early and get home around 4. We can walk and play with your pup in the morning and go on a nice walk after work! We have toys for them to play with while we’re gone and will leave some music on for them. On the weekends, we love to be active with pups and take them to the dog park if wanted and love on them all day! We live in a gated community with a large dog park. We have access to other dogs that your pup can play with, and our apartment also has a pet washing station where we can bathe your dog! We also have space for your dog to roam in our home, and have a toy basket for them to choose toys to play with. We also have blankets they can lay on when sitting on the couch.
“I have a very skiddish cat so for me to leave her with Hannah and know my cat was comfortable enough to come out and get some attention while I was gone was very reassuring! My cat was well fed and well loved while I was traveling and I'm very appreciate to know I can trust Hannah to do it again!”
“Leanne is friendly and professional. My cats warmed up to her easily and she had no problem giving my older cat his liquid medicine. I love the visit updates with photos as that was so helpful in easing my mind about my kitties while I was away. Communication with Leanne was easy and responsive. I returned to a home in exactly the same condition as I left it which was a welcome relief after a long trip. I will definitely be asking her to care for my kitties again when I am away.”
“Leann took great care of my Rotti who isn’t the easiest sometimes with new people. She gave calls, texts and pics to put me at ease while I was away. Highly recommend her!”
“Abigail responded to a last minute request and checked on my dogs all week. She was great! Very responsive and sent me pictures and updates every day. I appreciate her help!”
“Taylor was amazing. She checked in on our cats while we were away for a few days and they were healthy and happy when we came home. I would highly recommend Taylor for your pet care needs and would not hesitate to ask her to help us out in the future when needed. Thank you Taylor for doing such an amazing job!”
“Whitney did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs while I was away for the week on business. She sent me lots of adorable photos each drop in to reassure me they were doing well and gave me status updates on their potty schedule! I definitely recommend asking her to watch your pups anytime.”
“Teresa watched our dogs this weekend at our house and did great! She was very responsive and made sure our pups were well taken care of. Would use her services again!”
“Once again, Ellen was the best sitter for my fur babies! Didn’t have to worry about them while we were out of the country because we knew they were in good hands!! Highly recommend!”
“Again, excellent/ superb service. Niki has taken care of my dogs a couple of times and I could have not met a better sitter. She is top notch; always on top of everything and updating you with pics/ reviews. I can see my dogs feel at ease with her and love her and her daughter. I highly recommend her services, and I will continue entrusting her with my pups”
“Maimee is great, always responsive and self efficient which is very helpful when on work trips when I can’t get to my phone etc.! Our building can be confusing with parking and security but she does great with everything! Pets and all that comes with it! 😄”
About: I’ve lived with large animals my whole life so I’m very comfortable and also have a very flexible schedule. I’m super respectful and punctual as well. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate to your specific needs. Communication is very important to me so I will always keep you posted and up to date. Please look at my prices before moving forward 30 min walk - $20 30 min drop-in visit - $20 Please refer to the services section for more information I’m extremely neat and attentive. I understand the specific needs that certain pets have and how to accommodate them quickly. I can handle anything that’s thrown at me.
About: I’m an experienced dog owner with three dogs of my own, one Australian Shepherd and two Shelties, all girls. My oldest is 9, and we have been hiking and training together since she was a puppy. I take my dogs on daily walks, and they have joined me on hikes all across the United States. They love being active and spending time outdoors just like I do. All of my dogs are leash trained and off leash trained, and I am comfortable walking multiple dogs at once with experience handling up to six dogs at a time. I work from home Monday through Friday and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide walks and potty breaks throughout the day. I take my own dogs on walks during my lunch break and again after I finish work at 4 PM, and I would love to have more pups join us on our daily adventures. I live in Germantown in a home with a fully fenced backyard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for dogs to play and relax. I work from home, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Whether your dog enjoys walks, playtime, or just lounging around, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while staying with me. My home is very dog-friendly, and I treat every dog like part of the family.
“Catherine is great! Super attentive and sweet with my kitty. Every time I go out of town for a couple of days, I book her to take care of my kitty and give her company. I really appreciate how caring Catherine is.”
“I have had multiple visits with Elizabeth and she is my hands down favorite sitter! She is so good with my shy kitty and my doggo. So grateful I found her! It's hard for me to trust people, but she always surpasses the standard and does an amazing job in my home with my critters' care. Eill definitely be rebooking!”
About: I have experience as both a dog sitter and watcher on Rover, but had to take an extended break due to work, however, now that I have time again I would love to help take care of your fur baby! I am currently taking a break from the corporate world so have a very flexible schedule and am happy to take your pup for long or short walks or do longer or short house visits. Anything to make your pup as comfy as they can be when you are away! I have experience dealing with senior dogs with mobility, incontinence, and cognitive issues. I also have experience ensuring any bully or flat nose breed dogs do not overheat during the hot Nashville summers. I will always keep your baby on a leash and only provide treats if allowed (but will always provide praise and pats).
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Nashville is $20

Elizabeth went above and beyond for my kitties! She was so responsive and I was so happy she was there when I was out of town. She took such good care of them and even helped me with a locksmith issue while I was out of town. She’s 10/10 and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone that worries about their pets while they’re traveling!
I can't recommend her enough! She was able to check on my dog with less than 12 hours' notice, which was such a lifesaver. She was responsive, reliable, and made the whole process completely stress-free. She took great care of my pup, kept me updated with photos and messages, and I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. I'm so grateful for her flexibility and kindness, and I would absolutely book with her again. Thank you so much!
This is the second time we've asked Chris to look after Felix. This trip was longer than the last since we were traveling internationally, and once again Chris took excellent care of him. As before, Chris came by to feed Felix, play with him, clean up the area afterward, and send us photos and updates after each visit. He was also attentive to the details and very responsive throughout our trip. We'll definitely continue to ask Chris to look after Felix whenever we're out of town!
Molly did so well with my 3 cats! She followed all my requests and made sure to play with them daily. She changed their litter boxes daily and made sure each ate there correct food (one of my cats requires a special diet. I don't use rover often, so it was such a relief to have her watch over them and treat them like her own.I will definitely be requesting her in the future if I am in need of a sitter.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Nashville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.

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 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.
