“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! :)”

“Elyssa was the BEST! She took such good care of our pup, spent tons of time playing with him and taking him on long walks, and even watched him/spent the night with him on her birthday!! She was a great communicator and sent awesome updates and photos. I highly recommend Elyssa for any petsitting needs!”

“I’ve used Rover more than 20 times over the years, and Rose was by far the best sitter we’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to ensure we knew our pups were in great hands, keeping us updated and handling every detail with care. She not only met all of our requests but exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend!”

About: I genuinely treat every pet like they're my own. I'm comfortable caring for pets with different needs, whether that's high-energy dogs that need long walks and playtime, puppies still learning routines, or older pets that need a slower pace and a litle extra patience. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications (if necessary), and any specific instructions you leave. I also make a point to keep you updated with photos and check-ins, so you're never left wondering how your pet is doing. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I work as a paralegal in downtown Nashville during the week, but I'm available during my lunch break for walks or quick drop-ins. After 5 PM, I'm fully available for longer walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company. On weekends, I'm much more flexible and can be available pretty much all day depending on your needs. Whether it's multiple visits, extended stays, or last-minute plans, I'm happy to help. I just ask for about an hour's notice, so I can make sure I get there on time and give your pet the attention they deserve. In my own home, I'm used to caring for two very different personalities. I have one high-energy dog who loves to run and play, and one more relaxed dog who prefers to take it easy. I adjust my care based on their needs , whether that means being outside throwing a ball and staying active, or slowing things down for cuddle time and a calm environment. When I'm in a client's home, I follow that same approach. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and routine and adjust accordingly. If your dog loves to play, I'm more than happy to keep them active and engaged with walks, games, and mental stimulation. If they're more laid back or just want companionship, I'm just as happy to spend time relaxing with them and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for.
“Lexi was amazing! Ozzy is very particular about who watches her but she gave Lexi no problems at all! She gave me updates and photos of Ozzy throughout the days which I very much appreciate as someone who doesn’t like to leave their dog behind and misses her very much. Lexi was also able to work with me last minute as I had a previous sitter fall through very last minute. I would recommend Lexi to anyone who needs a sitter!”

“Dana was amazing with my Mabel girl! She’s a lot to handle and she did so good with her, send so many updated and photos & even stayed with her an extra day when my travel plans got cancelled! Definitely will book with her again ❤️”

“Tevin was amazing! He kept us updated with constant messages and photos every day. They shared more than 10 day at home and it's clear that he loves our fur baby. Also the house was clean and organised. We are so pleased with Tevin services. Definitely, highly recommended!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I can remember. Whether it’s taking my Friends dogs on walks or taking care of my mimi’s cats while she’s gone. I have a love for all things animals! I’m currently working part time and I’m still in school so I have plenty time after school hours to drop in and make sure they are getting plenty of love! I personally have 2 cats and always make sure that they are well feed, well loved, and the potty is nice and clean. I take my neighbors and friends dogs on walks all the time and even help feed them too!

“Ashley had done drop-in visits for our senior pup for years now, and this was the first time she did housesitting. As expected, we couldn’t be more pleased with the care she gave our dog and our home. There’s a reason Ashley is always booked — she’s the best!”

“Sabrina is an excellent pet sitter and care-taker. We felt comfortable and completely reassured that our 16 year old lab and 7 year old cat were in very capable hands. Sabrina made sure to send us updates and was very thorough about following through with our instructions during the house sitting. We will definitely be contacting her again when needed and highly recommend her for taking care of your fur babies!”

“Lindsey stayed at our house for 10 days to look after our 2 dogs. Our dogs were very happy and content when we came home and our house was clean and tidy. She did an awesome job and we would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. She is trustworthy and a great communicator. Most importantly, she will look after your pup with lots of love and affection!”

About: Growing up, I’ve always been around animals and caring for pets. I had a corgi named Mickey, a bunny rabbit named Kiki, a German shepherd/hound mix rescue named Bailey, and a dachshund/terrier mix named Cinnamon. I’ve also helped house sit and care for my siblings’ dogs many times, including a shorkie mix named Oakley and a goldendoodle named Ranger. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work from home running my own business, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, bathroom breaks, and companionship, and I can be flexible with mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays when needed. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel comfortable and confident leaving their pets in someone else’s care. I always prioritize safety, patience, and consistency while following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in a client’s home or during house sitting, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and supervision so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away.
“Jabe was wonderful. Sent enough updates that I never worried about my best buddy, and came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Hope to book for my next trip as well! Thank you, Jabe!”
“Melissa was incredible with my babies! I know we were only gone for a couple of days, but by the first night, Cleo had warmed up to her and even cuddled on her lap. Rocket got lots of snuggles and walks. And Max got just the right amount of attention. She sent lots of pictures and made sure she asked questions if she was unsure about something (a huge must in my book). She even left a stocking of goodies for Max and Cleo from her own babies. We will definitely hire her again...”

Scottsboro pet parents share their Rover experiences
We would hire her a million more times. All of the animals loved her!!! I was so nervous about having someone I didn’t know watch my babies and she definitely went above and beyond. She was very thorough about what they needed and what they liked. We received so many pictures of them which also put my mind at ease. If I could give more stars I would!!!
