“She’s a pro!! Stayed at our house with our 10 month old Yorkie who started with diarrhea the day before we were suppose to leave for Disney!! ? Not many would have been willing to watch a sick little guy. Carol is very self sufficient, didn’t need all of my instructions and she made everything super easy for us. I also loved that she did a meet and greet before we left. Oh and a bonus...she brought in all of our packages and mail while we were gone. We had never had anyone stay in our house before. Our pup and our house were very well cared for! Will definitely use her again!”
“Leah was fabulous! She was so patient and willing to work with my feisty puppy who just turned a year old. With her background she was gracious with his anxiety and they connected beautifully!!! Leah kept me in the loop and sent great pictures so I could be worry-free and enjoy my trip. I will definitely use Leah’s services again and again!!”
“Wonderful! Stella went above and beyond during her time with Arnie at our house. I love receiving photos and updates about how and what he was doing while we were gone. Even though we missed our sweet boy, we knew he was playing and getting lots of love from Stella. We will definitely book her again!”
About: I genuinely love caring for my friends’ and family’s pets. Animals have always brought me a lot of joy, and I take their comfort, routine, and well being seriously. I love spending time with them, making sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while my loved ones are away. I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to give pets the attention, care, and play they deserve. I genuinely love being around animals, and I enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Because my schedule is more open right now, I’m able to be very attentive, present, and engaged with your pets rather than rushing through their care. I’m very gentle, patient, and loving with pets, and I always want them to feel safe and comfortable around me. I know every animal has their own personality, needs, and boundaries, so I take my time earning their trust and making sure they feel cared for. Whether your pet is playful, shy, cuddly, or high energy, I approach them with warmth, attentiveness, and genuine love.
“Lisa was very responsive when I contacted her during my time away. She was kind enough to feed my fish, get the mail, and water the flowers in my absence. The dogs seemed calm and rested upon my return. I will definitely request Lisa to look after Lukas and Matteo in the future”
About: A lifetime of loving animals—messy paws, big personalities, and all! 🐾❤️ I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, from tiny kittens and wild puppies to big dogs and senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve experienced it all—the zoomies, the accidents, the big messes, the little messes, and most importantly, all the love that comes with them! I know how much our pets mean to us, and I treat every animal in my care like family. Whether your pup needs a long walk and lots of playtime, your cat prefers some quiet companionship, or your senior pet needs a little extra TLC, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Big or small, young or old, energetic or a total couch potato—I love them all! 🐶🐱💕 I currently work as a chiropractor in Franklin: Monday: 8:30-5 Tuesday: 1-6:45 Wednesday: 8:30-1:30 Thursday: 9:30-6 Friday: 8:30-1:30 I am off on the weekends and major holidays. I provide care in your pet’s home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I’m respectful of your home and will follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, walks,, and any house or pet-care preferences you have.
“Ayla was a life saver. I needed a dog sitter for our new puppies for a few hours and she didnt hesitate to say yes with really short notice. She was great with our pups. I will book her again!”
“Sarah was so kind to help us at last minute notice spend a Friday night with our Frankie! She came over the day before to meet him and get house instructions. Such a sweet girl, very professional and obvious animal lover! Frankie was happy to be in the comfort of his own home! Thank you for your help Sarah!”
“Robin stayed in our home for 5 days/4 nights and was WONDERFUL. She communicated so well, asked all the right questions, returned a clean home to us, and obviously took amazing 🤩 care of our 5 dogs and 4 sheep. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
About: Nice to meet you— I go by Gracie, and I love animals! I’ve always had a dog in my house growing up, and I’ve volunteered at animal shelters in the past. I’m a recent college grad looking for additional income. My schedule is completely open since I graduated from college and moved back home! I’m available morning, noon and night to check up on your fur babies whenever you need! I stick to their schedule as closely as possible to make sure that they still keep their routine while you’re gone. Even if there isn’t a strict schedule, their time with me will be filled with fun!
“Courtney was great! Communicative and reliable. Followed instructions I left. And went above and beyond taking care of the house. Came home to happy healthy dogs! Would and will use her again.”
“Damian did a great job taking care of my dog and house sitting while I was on an extended trip. My dog got along great with Damian. He took Finn for a walk at the park and in the neighborhood. While house sitting and providing dog care, Damian swept the floor, rain the dishwasher, and laundered the towels before leaving. He was trustworthy and respectful in my home. I recommend Damian highly.”
About: I have experience with many animals including dogs, cats, exotics, and farm animals! I’m an aspiring veterinarian and a part time veterinary assistant at a mixed practice animal hospital. I have hundreds of hours of experience with my local veterinarian, dog walking at my local animal shelter, and pet sitting. I was trained at the Williamson County Animal Center to work with dogs showing early signs of severe behavioral issues. I have experience with wary, unsure dogs who need time to warm up. I have experience with disabled animals including those with spinal injuries, cerebral hypoplasia, diabetes, hypothyroidism, age related problems, and more. I have raised and cared for several puppies, but I also care for many seniors. I have an 11 year old dog myself! I’m currently a commuting college student who has availability before/after school that allows me to take care of pets in the Franklin, TN area in my free time! I am very vigilant when it comes to the safety and wellbeing of the animals in my care. I treat your babies like my own and am quick to alert you if something feels wrong!
“We have a brand new puppy and I was SO nervous to leave him. Blaise instantly put us at ease. She sent updates and took amazing care of our sweet boy it was evident he loved her!”
“Casey took care of our two dogs and cat for a week while we were traveling. She came to our house to meet the “boys” about a week before we left and all three of them took an instant liking to her! She stayed at our house so the boys could be in familiar surroundings and kept us in the loop with photos and texts while we were traveling so we could see what a good time they were having back at home. I will definitely ask her to pet sit again. It was a great experience for our boys and for us.”
“Elyssa stayed with our dog Elle for five nights in our home. We got frequent updates and came home to a happy pup and a clean house. Elyssa was very responsive and it was a great experience for us. Highly recommend - thanks Elyssa!”
“Allie did a great job of watching our dogs while we were away. She was communicative and left our house looking great! She followed our instructions well, and I would not hesitate to hire her again in the future.”
“Laurie is wonderful! We have two dogs that love her, she took great care of them and our house! She sent photos and updates daily. I would totally recommend and will book in the future again :)”
“Kylie watched Tucker at our home for 8 days and did a fantastic job. She was good about sending me pictures and I really appreciated that. We also came home to a clean house and a happy and content dog. I will definitely use her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Peytonsville is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Peytonsville 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 Peytonsville 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 Peytonsville 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
