“Meredith hung out with our redbone coonhound puppy while we attended a wedding in Nashville. Communication was top notch! Meredith arrived on time and took her responsibilities seriously. We highly recommend Meredith as your next Rover. You will not be disappointed!”
“Madelyn was communicative, giving daily updates about River while I was gone. She took her on lots of walks and it seems my dog really got comfortable with her and cuddled a lot. I also came home to a clean house and she was respectful of my space while she was there! I am excited to use Madelyn again in the future.”
“Kayla is amazing!! You can tell she truly cares about animals and takes care of them like her own. She was so sweet with our dog while we were away and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. We are so thankful to have found her!”
“Elizabeth was reliable and my baby loved her! She took good care of my home and Kitty for 10 days and went above and beyond to make sure I had a clean home to come home too as well as communicate while I was away! Strongly recommend.”
“Amber was wonderful with our fur babies. Our 2 cats took to her right away. She was reliable and trustworthy. Left our home after nearly 3 days just as she found it. Communication was excellent. Will request her again!!!”
“Gabriella has been wonderful since the start and continues to impress us with every subsequent sitting! She treats our dogs and home as if they are her own, and somehow manages to wear out and win over both the most high energy and most unimpressed of our dogs. Our oldest has shown her his playful side and our youngest is willing to slow down and cuddle on the sofa with her - both huge feats! I can't say enough good things about our experience with Gabriella. She sends us pictures and seems to genuinely enjoy her time with our pups, and it just makes our trips more enjoyable knowing our dogs are so happy and taken care of so well!”
“Stacie was great with our pups. She provided regular updates and made sure Bella was as comfortable as possible during a heavy rain storm. Would definitely recommend Stacie.”
About: Love taking are of pets! I’ve had experience with caring for pups to seniors. I currently own 2 dogs now that I love so much! I’ve had dogs that have needed medication etc. I’m a teacher with afternoons off and I would love to check-in with your dog in the afternoons after work. Caring for your dog would be fun! I’m also available on weekends for various services. My dogs are crate free throughout the day but can be crated if needed. They love to roam around my home and enjoy walks daily!
“Jessica was wonderful! She sent us photos of our dogs throughout the house sit and left us a detailed note which was appreciated. She left our house very clean as well. We would work with Jessica again!”
“Ashley is amazing and i would definitely recommend her! She came to watch my dogs on short notice and did great! Even cuddled with them 🥰 we had a mishap about my automatic door lock sticking when she went for a run but she didnt panic, or get mad at me too :) i am thankful to have found her!”
“Josh was a fantastic sitter! He spent the night at our house and never left our dog alone for more than 4 hours. We came back to a clean home with the trash taken out and the bed made. I would recommend Josh to anyone!”
“Jericho was great - Very responsive and friendly. Our dog Willow had a blast, and was well taken care of while we were out of town. 10/10, would recommend her for dog/house-sitting.”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 10, helping my parents care for multiple pets growing up. As an adult, I’ve had 3 dogs and 2 cats throughout the years! so I’m very familiar with the energy (and snuggles!) that come with both puppies and big breeds. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with: • Training multiple puppies 🐶 • Administering medications 💊 • Managing special diets 🦴 • Caring for both high energy, large/small breed dogs 🐾🩷 I truly love animals! not just dogs, but cats and all creatures, and treat them like family. Their safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available most weekdays and free on weekends as well. I also have a car, so I’m able to come to your home for drop-ins, walks, or overnight care as needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I aim to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and happy. Whether I’m dropping in for a visit, taking your pup for a walk, having them for boarding, I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.❤️ Here’s what you can expect from me: • For dog sitting, I’ll give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles, while also keeping up with feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any special instructions you leave. • During drop-in visits, I’ll check in on your pet, let them out, refresh their food/water, and spend some quality time with them so they’re not feeling alone. • For dog walking, I’ll take your pup on a fun and safe walk, giving them both exercise and stimulation based on their energy level. Cleanliness, communication, and care are my priorities. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and love I’d want for my own.
“Emily house sat for me and kept me updated and informed about Honey. I rarely use a sitter so it is overall very nerve racking for me. Overall great experience! Would recommend Emily and use her again!”
About: I am the youngest of 4 girls and we always got the same pets together. But for some reason, my pets always lived the longest! I like to think its because I took the time to train, play and love on my pets. When my family got our first dog, Kovu, I quickly became his best friend (after my dad, of course). I trained him on how to sit, down, shake, spin and roll over. We got a second dog, Hercules, who I taught all those tricks to as well as beg! I also taught Kovu how to retrieve their dog bowls for dinner and to help carry bags of trash to the trashcan or groceries to the house. I have experience with anxious dogs from a family dog and my former roommate’s dog who was very skiddish. My Husband and I rescued two dogs, Jax and Milo. They too, know all the tricks I taught my family dogs. I also did a 6-week training program with Jax to address his behavioral issues so I have some experience training a dog with destructive behavior, the tendency to run out the door and handling a mildly reactive dog. Jax and Milo have learned to be great around our baby and love him! I’m a full time mom to a little one so as long as your pets are friendly with children, I can do drop ins, walks and dogsit as long as the dogsitting does not require me to stay overnight. If you have a fenced yard, I’ll make sure to get them plenty outside time for play. If not, I’m happy to take them for walks. I’ll make sure to clean up after them so your home stays nice and tidy while you are away.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life including adopting/taking care of my own since I was a kid. Would love to help others provide quality care of their best friends! I’m currently working remotely Mon-Fri so I have a lot of flexibility to spend time at home with your pet. I enjoy providing quality time aside from just sitting around on the couch – walks are a treat for me too, not just your pup! I am very capable of driving anywhere in and around Nash. I currently work remotely in the Germantown/north Nashville area so I’m very accessible to the highway and open to traveling outside of downtown.

This is our second time booking Shelby, and once again she was absolutely wonderful! She stays in our home with our two girls, Bella and Bailey, and we feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in her care. Her dog, Scout, comes along too, and all three dogs have the best time together! Shelby takes such great care of our girls and our home, and we love the updates she sends. We’re so thankful to have found someone we trust and will definitely continue booking her!

The average cost of House Sitting in Ridgetop is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $39 per night.

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 Ridgetop 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 Ridgetop 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 Ridgetop 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
