“Keegan is exceptionally gifted with animals. She bonded immediately with our Sheltie Dani, whom she walked all summer. In fact he looked for her first thing when he got out of his crate. Having grown up on a ranch, she has a wealth of information about animals. This proved extremely helpful because at just over a year old, Dani is still a puppy. She conscientiously told us anything unusual that he did, e.g. yesterday he surreptitiously ate a small rock, typical puppy behavior. She came back everyday with stories of Dani’s antics (he loves to chase dragon flies!), showing how she lets animals into her heart. Keegan is extraordinary. We hate to see her go back to college in OK. We and Dani look forward to more walks when she comes home from school at the holidays!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for several years and truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality. What sets me apart is my experience with both puppies and senior pets, and my ability to adapt to different needs and energy levels. With puppies, I’ve helped with everything from crate training and leash walking to basic obedience and building good habits early on. For senior pets, I’m comfortable administering medication, assisting with mobility, and providing a calm, comforting presence. I’m attentive, reliable, and always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their people are away. I treat every pet like they’re my own—and I always make sure we have a little fun, too! (Plus, I’m pretty good at snapping cute photos of your pets!) I’m available for early morning, lunchtime, and evening visits during the week, which works great for pets who thrive on a consistent routine. I also have full availability on weekends, so I can be more flexible for longer visits, walks, or extra playtime when needed. I’m happy to work around your pet’s schedule to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away! When caring for your pet in their own home, I do everything I can to maintain their usual schedule—whether that’s feeding times, walk routes, or playtime routines! I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort zones, and I will always respect your home and any specific instructions. Ultimately, my goal is to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for—just like you never left!
“Jennifer was wonderful! Pixel sometimes takes a little while to warm up to new people and he took to her like she was a long lost friend! We will definitely be using her again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I understand that every pet has unique needs. I take the time to build trust with each animal and provide the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own pets. What sets me apart is my focus on personalized care. Whether your pet is a playful puppy who needs consistency and reinforcement of basic training, an active adult who loves long walks and playtime, or a senior pet who requires a gentler approach and extra comfort, I adapt my care to fit their needs. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering oral medications, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing regular updates with photos and messages so you can feel confident while you’re away. Safety, reliability, and making sure your pet feels happy and secure are always my top priorities. My goal is to make your pet’s time with me feel like a fun, stress-free experience while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate feeding times, potty breaks, walks, play sessions, and any special care instructions your pet may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive plenty of interaction, exercise, and affection. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, evening playtime, or maintaining a pet’s regular routine while you’re away, I prioritize making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I work hard to keep their schedules as close to normal as possible and provide regular updates to owners for peace of mind. 🐾❤️ I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, medication needs, and any special instructions provided by the owner. In my clients’ homes, I respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, fresh water, and care while keeping their environment clean and stress-free. I understand that many pets feel most comfortable in their own surroundings, so I work to maintain their normal daily routine. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision, affection, playtime, and opportunities for exercise. My priority is always your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“I had a fantastic experience with Brooke through Rover. She was incredibly responsive and even accommodated a same-day booking, which was a huge help. She bonded quickly with my dogs and made us feel completely at ease. Her professionalism and clear communication stood out from start to finish. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy care for their pet.”

About: I’ve taken care of horses, dogs and cats my whole life. I’d be happy to make your pets feel at home while you’re away and love them as my own! I work from home full time so your pet will get all the attention they want! I know my family has had a hard time finding good help with our dogs when we want to go on vacation so I’d like to be there for yours. We want to make sure we don’t mess up any of your training so please let me know if there’s a no furniture rule in your home. Otherwise I like to keep them as cozy and loved as possible.
About: Hi! I’m a local mom living on a mini farm in Goodlettsville with my husband, son, two dogs, and ten chickens. Animals have always been a huge part of our lives, and we spend most of our days outside exploring, playing, and staying active. My son absolutely loves animals and is a wonderful little helper. He accompanies me about 90% of the time, so if your dog or cat prefers a child-free environment or isn’t comfortable around kids, please let me know and we can discuss whether we’re a good fit. We love getting out and doing fun activities, whether that’s neighborhood walks, playing in the yard, walking to coffee, or even taking your pup on an adventure to a dog park (with your permission, of course!). If your pet prefers a slower pace, we’re equally happy to provide snuggles, backyard or indoor playtime, and companionship at home. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll treat your dog or cat like one of our own—with plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and updates while you’re away. We have a sweet newborn baby so I’m home 24/7 to be with your pup giving treats and snuggles and making sure all their needs are met. We have a fenced in front yard waiting for your pup to explore! We also have two friendly dogs for your pup to play with!

“Shelby was incredibly thorough and professional while booking and during the walk. She sent a few photos and made sure that we knew that Nikita was well cared for. 100% would contact her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Jazzy! I grew up on a ranch and have spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and livestock. Caring for animals comes naturally to me, and I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, needs, and routines. As a long-time business owner, I know how important trust, communication, and reliability are when someone is caring for a beloved family member. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and loving experience while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I have experience caring for senior pets, administering medications, following specialized feeding schedules, and supporting pets who may need a little extra patience, reassurance, or attention. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a consistent companion nearby, I strive to make them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for in their own environment. Before each booking, I’d love to know about any medications, dietary restrictions, health concerns, routines, training cues, fears, or special preferences that help your pet feel safe and happy. Every animal is different, and I believe the best care comes from understanding what makes them unique. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I maintain a flexible schedule, work from home therefore I am able to accommodate many pet care needs. I work around your pets routine, personality, and comfort level!

About: Hello! My name is Jess! All of my life I have had dogs. They have always been a part of me. I started working with animals when I was very young, volunteering for fostering, working at shelters, and working for rescue groups. I grew up in the country where we used to have a ton of animals! Dogs, cats, (even chickens and gunnies). I now live in a spacious house in nashville with my hisband, daughter, 2 rescue dogs and rescue cat. The past year, I have been fostering for a local rescue. I’m so fortunate my two dogs get along well with others. My house is a dogs dream, as we have a huge fenced in back yard and I work from home! So they run until their heart is content. We welcome all breeds here and would love to meet you and your furry companion. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible! I let my dogs in and out many times a day - our house is equipped with all the toys and beds a dog could want I take safety very seriously. Especially when it’s a life I’m responsible for. Ensuring all locks are locked and precautions are in place before walking or letting out a dog is my number one focus. Then we can have all the fun!

- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise

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.
