About: I have five cats and a dog currently and am always looking to play or help take care of a furry friend. I have previously worked in a daycare as well which helped me get a lot of experience in caretaking. I am not a permanent employee anywhere and have a flexible schedule so i’m able to work my plans around the needs of any pet. All work is either online or gig based so I am always available! I have the energy to keep up with hyper dogs but i also love the lazy dogs/ cats who just want me to pet them and hang out around them. whether your pet needs a workout or a nap session, i can keep up with it!
About: Hi, I’m Danielle. I provide dog walking and drop-in visits throughout Bedford County for families who need reliable, consistent care while they’re at work or away from home. Visit times may occasionally need a little flexibility—especially on busier days or when travel between appointments takes longer than expected. I always make sure every pet receives the full care and attention they deserve. Over the past several years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every pet is different, and I do my best to follow your routines closely so your pets feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a structured walk, playtime in the yard, feeding, or just some extra attention during the day, I’m happy to help. I also provide drop-in visits for cats, making sure litter boxes are clean, meals are given on schedule, and they get interaction at their comfort level. I focus on creating a calm, dependable experience for both pets and their owners. You can expect clear communication, thoughtful care, and updates during each visit so you always know how things are going. I’m grateful to have built long-term relationships with many local pet families over the years, and I look forward to continuing to care for wonderful pets throughout Bedford County. If you’re looking for steady, trustworthy dog walking or drop-in care, I’d love to connect. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to make sure your pets are cared for, whether they need a midday walk, a potty break, playtime, or a meal while you're away. I am available 7 days a week for drop-in visits and dog walking and would love to continue helping pet owners in any way I can! I love spending time with dogs and making sure they get the mental and physical stimulation they need! Whether it’s a fun game of fetch, a relaxing walk, or a treat puzzle to challenge their minds, I always aim to keep pets happy and engaged. I now focus on dog walking and drop-in visits at my clients’ homes. I enjoy taking dogs on walks around their neighborhoods, helping them get exercise, explore new scents, and feel comfortable in their surroundings. If the weather is nice, I’m happy to take them on a stroll through a local park for a little extra adventure!
About: I’m excited to help look after your pets. I have had cats and dogs my whole life. I have volunteered at an animal shelter and have fostered tiny kittens. I hate leaving my pets at a kennel or with strangers when I travel. I hope to help your pets feel safe and loved while you’re gone. Also, I want you to feel assured your pet is receiving the best care. I’m comfortable around all dogs and cats. I can help with puppies to seniors. I have adopted and trained many puppies and loved my 2 hairless cats! I’m very trustworthy and dependable. You can relax knowing that I always put your wishes and the pets well-being first. I am currently available most days for drop-ins. Also, if you live in my area I’m also available for last minute emergencies. I can’t do over night stays I will follow your instructions and wishes in a timely matter. I am patient and experienced with anxious pets. I’ll do my best to make you and your pet comfortable with my visits

“Cassy is fantastic. She provides great feedback and pictures. My fur baby was very happy to have Cassy walk her. I highly recommend Cassy and look forward to her watching my fur baby again. Thank you Cassy.”

About: As a Rover Dog Caregiver, I am committed to providing exceptional care for your beloved pets. With a background in veterinary technology and a passion for animals, I ensure that your furry companions receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I tailor my services to meet the unique needs of each dog, creating a safe and comfortable environment for them to thrive in. With me, you can rest assured that your dogs are in loving and capable hands. I often volunteer at dog sanctuaries with disabled and senior dogs. And I have one puppy and one adult (both female) of my very own!! I also have a female cat I adopted 5 years ago!! I’ve cared for various small animals and reptiles also. I am an upcoming freshman in a Veterinary Technology program. I’m currently working part-time and there is never “not enough time” to care for pets!! Everyday I take time out of my day from my dogs to enjoy my company. There is no excuse for neglect! Although I do not have a fenced home I have a LOT of yard space and my neighborhood is perfect for dog walks. I also live 5 minutes away from a trusted dog park. Just tell me what I can do to best care for YOUR animal since not all dogs/cats are the same.

“Cant say enough great things about Jill. She follows instructions perfectly but also thinks and acts independently in the best interest of your dog. We will be using her from now on for all of Elliott's walks.”

“I am so thankful for Shannon! She gives my pup the quick exercise that she needs while I'm at work. She's very easy to communicate with and sends me great updates! My furbaby loves her walks with Shannon.”


About: I am such an animal lover, and I like to think they love me too;) I have owned dogs my whole life and recently adopted a cat, Willow! I’m excited to meet and care for your pets:) I am a student at Middle Tennessee State University with classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This means I am available often for your pets! I am very attentive of my animals (currently one dog and one cat). I feed them on a consistent schedule and let the dog out every two-three hours. I also provide them with lots of attention, whether they would prefer to be in my skin (my dog) or relax in the same area without touch (my cat). I can be very adaptive to any animals’ needs!

About: I have dad 4 dogs apart of my family since I was little; a min-pin/chihuahua mix named Zee, and medium mutt dog named Sadie, a Alaskan Malamute dog named Blazzy; my current dog is a Pomsky name Sigurd. I am currently working full-time, but trying to move more independent work so I will have to work around my schedule until business picks up My cat is a indoor cat with 2 cat trees and my dog is both inside and out, and I have a fence in yard for my dog.
About: My name is Hannah, but I go by Mikki. I have had pets since I was 15 years old and they have ranged from cats, dogs, and the exotic! I have a serious love for all the different types of fur-babies and am a proud pet parent myself! I’m the purrfect fit if you love someone enthusiastic about animals and their care, someone who is strict with rules and restrictions, and someone who is flexible! I have worked in a pet boarding type facility in the past and carry much experience wrangling dogs of all sizes and in all group sizes, with all different types of personalities. I also have a dog and cat myself. My daily schedule involves me waking up and letting my dog out while preparing their breakfast. After they eat, we get some snuggles in until it’s time to go potty. Later on, it time for dinner and then a nightly walk 30 minutes to an hour after dinner has been served. That ends our adventure for the day! For Drop-Ins: I stop by for feedings and enrichment for between 30 minutes to an hour. I make sure they care squared away and everything is locked up before I leave. For Walks: It’s simple … we just go for walks. 30 minutes to an hour or whatever set path and time per appointment. For House-Sitting: I set a time for me to come over. I stay for the duration of the appointment set and bring my own necessities so that I don’t have to leave the premises. I stay within your home, where your babies are most comfortable, and provide them with company and a set schedule. Before I confirm a booking, I will ALWAYS set up a meet-and-greet. I need to be able to sit down with the fur-babies and parents so we can get a good view of the vibes and to see if I would be a good fit. These meet-and-greets are NOT OPTIONAL and refusal will result in a CANCELED BOOKING! Sitting should be a comfortable experience for pet, pet parent, and sitter. Checking the vibes and getting details is critical for success.
About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.
“I can’t recommend Gabby enough as a dog walker! She’s absolutely fantastic with my pitbull, Mabel. From day one, it was clear that Gabby truly cares about dogs. Mabel is energetic and sometimes a little stubborn, but Gabby always knows how to keep her engaged and well-exercised. I love how attentive she is to Mabel’s needs—whether it’s adjusting to her mood or making sure she gets the perfect amount of playtime. Gabby is punctual, reliable, and incredibly professional. It’s so reassuring knowing that Mabel is in such great hands every time Gabby takes her for a walk. I truly appreciate how Gabby goes the extra mile, even providing little updates and photos of their adventures. If you’re looking for someone who’s kind, trustworthy, and great with dogs of all kinds, Gabby is the one!”

About: I treat every pet like they're my own, taking the time to learn their routine, personality, and individual needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm patient and attentive with puppies who are still learning routines, and I'm equally comfortable caring for senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication reminders, or extra care and attention. I believe in clear communication, so you'll receive regular updates, photos, and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care, whether it's drop-in visits, walks, daycare, or overnight stays. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to keep them on their normal routine as much as possible. This helps them feel comfortable, happy, and secure while their owners are away. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I take time to get to know each pet's personality and energy level so they receive the care and attention that's right for them. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment, closely supervise pets, and make sure they always have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of affection. If your pet requires medication or extra care, I'm happy to follow detailed instructions to ensure their needs are met.
“My boy, Merlin just LOVES Katie! She is very responsible and sweet, and takes him on fun adventures to the park, where they have nice walks and play fetch. I highly recommend Katie!”
About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was a sophomore in high school, graduated in 2019. I volunteered and then became a worker at a groomer near me. Loved my job, and have cared for many animals since. Currently do not have a job, so I have a free schedule and nothing but love to give to the fur babies, including cats of course. I am very respectful to others homes and belongings. I only want to care for the animals, very trustworthy. If staying at my home, I am sure to take them out every hour, hour in a half unless given specific details. They have their free roam, I also have a pretty decent sized screen in back porch that they can run around a little in.
About: Growing up, I have cared for pugs and German Shepherds but for the last 10 years, I have been a cat mom to three kitties. I understand how busy life can get and want to provide this service to my fellow animal lovers. I want you to be able go to work or go on vacation worry free! I got you! I currently work part time as an adjunct at Tennessee State University teaching English. I’m also a caretaker for my grandmother and three cats + pug, and in my free time I write fiction. My availability is fairly open, but I’m a fast communicator so if I’m unavailable I will let you know quickly so as not to waste your time. I will adapt to your pets individual needs. Safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I want your pets to feel comfortable around me, so I intend to listen to your specific instructions in order to make that happen.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Shelbyville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Shelbyville. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
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 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.
