“Mackenzie loves her time with Amanda. She’s always excited to see Amanda’s car arrive and she hits her button to make sure I know Amanda has arrived.”


About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of all types for over a decade, evening helping train larger dogs for a time. I've taken care of pets with disabilities and health issues, as well as senior pets. I love pets and always have, when I was a child I even dreamed of being a veterinarian before realizing I care too much. I will take care of your pets like they are my own, and my pets are very loved and well taken care of. I'm currently working part time and freelance on the side so my schedule is very flexible! I am also comfortable staying overnight with your pets should you need it and perform house sitting duties as well! Our pets are very well taken care of and I will take as much care with your pets as I do mine. I understand just how hard it can be to leave your pets behind while you go on vacation and will do all I can to make you feel comfortable. I am open to doing consultations before your booking and will happily send pictures of your pets to you as well!

“I have been so lucky to book Honey for multiple occasions the last two weeks. I could not be happier with how she has treated Mr. Snowflake. Super kind and attentive. Responds quickly. Incredibly flexible with times. My dog already loves her and she plays with our cat when she stops in too! I was super hesitant about booking walks on Rover but Honey has not only put my mind at ease but Snowflake is much less stressed every day he sees her. I can not recommend Honey enough.”


“We had a wonderful experience with Ashley... we were in town on vacation and she took care of our little dogs perfectly! She was caring, timely, trustworthy and the dogs enjoyed her visits and being walked in our absence..... highly recommend and will reach out to her again next time we're in Nashville! Thx again Ashley!”


About: Experience with multiple kinds of dogs. From my older brother's big dogs to my girlfriend's small dog. Also my cousin's senior dog from an abused home. I'm currently in between jobs and picking up odd jobs so I have plenty of free time to watch over your pups! I have a flexible schedule so don't hesitate to call! I am a kind, playful, and patient sitter for your pets. There hasn't been a dog I couldn't get to play with me. Some take some time to warm up but I have the patience and persistence to win them over. Of course their safety is one of my top priorities as well. I would watch over them as if they were my own.

About: With over 12 years of professional pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of working with dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals, and everything in between. I’ve proudly worked for three of Nashvilles top pet care companies, but my true roots go back to growing up surrounded by animals of all kinds. I’m comfortable with all breeds, ages, and temperaments—and I never discriminate. Whether your pet has paws, hooves, or scales, they’ll receive the same love and care as if they were my own. I’m also experienced in administering medications and creating a calm, cozy environment for every pet in my care. Your fur baby is in great hands with me. I am a school teacher so I work week days from 7-3 PM. I am available evenings, and weekends. As well as summer, fall, winter, and spring breaks! In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and committed to maintaining their pet’s comfort and routine. I provide clean food and water, administer medications if needed, and offer companionship and gentle care tailored to each pet’s needs and personality. Whether it’s a shy cat, energetic pup, or senior pet, I make sure they feel secure and loved while their humans are away.

“Life saver! I had several walkers on another app cancel on me last minute. She was available and immediately accepted and got my pup ready to go so quickly! And then when our trip ran late she was able to my pup again. Summer was pretty happy in the pictures and she's happy and well-fed on our return. 11/10”


“Very happy with Hannah. She made sure to make the walk a fun adventure time for my pup, and sent plenty of pictures and updates asking the way. Couldn't be happier!”


“Kali is awesome. Great communication, very dependable, and my Roxie loves her! 5 stars ⭐️”


“Kristen always goes above and beyond, even when things get messy! She always communicates so well and was super flexible while we were away on a trip. Can’t recommend enough!”


About: I'm a softie for a dog nuzzle and I have lots of time to dedicate to your pooch. Does your dog need a walk? So do I. It's a lot more fun with a dog! I work from home on my own schedule, so my days are pretty open. I am able to work around any schedule, any time of the day. Give me instructions on how you care for your pet and I will strive to make the transition as seamless as possible. Do you mix wet and dry food? Do they get a cuddle after eating? Whatever your routine is, I will accommodate.

“Anna went above and beyond for my Emmylou. Would highly recommend her as a sitter and walker.”



About: I've been pet sitting since high school. I looked after the neighborhood pets until I graduated. I've been sitting in Tennessee since I moved here in 2011. I've also fostered dogs through various rescues. I'm a school teacher so I'm free most evenings and weekends. Once summer starts I'll be more flexible. I have a dog so I can only provide drop ins. I offer drop in visits for your pet. I'll be able to take them for walks and administer meds or refresh food and water for your pet.

“Bryanna is Amazing!!! It was my 1st time ever using Rover and she walked me through the entire process. She offered to do an initial meet & greet for Neo and I. She also was able to accommodate my walking schedule and was a good communicator. Rover card, was also on point everytime! Definitely recommend 👍🏽”


“Keisha is fantastic, she did a great job with Remy.”


About: Animals have been a very big part of my life. I am capable of providing safe and effective care, as I have two dogs of my own at home. I know it can be stressful leaving your fur babies at home, but I am here to make that process easier! As of right now I work Monday through Thursday. I am available to house sit Friday through Sunday. My schedule during the week is generally pretty flexible. So, if I am needed during the week I am able to take work off. I have a fenced in yard for my dogs, they are able to go in and out of my house as they please. I am also able to crate a dog if that is necessary. If your dog has a specific schedule or routine, I am more than capable of following that.


About: Hello! I would love to take care of your dog while you are away! We now have a sweet cavapoo so your dog needs to be friendly to other dogs. I am home all the time so your dog will receive plenty of love and attention. In order to provide individualized attention I will only house sit one dog at a time. I can take your dog for walks or they can stay home, whatever you prefer. Your dog will be treated like family in my home. My family always had small dogs so I will only house sit little guys that are good and gentle to children and our puppy. We have had experience with senior dogs and dogs that required medication. I will just need detailed instructions on how to better care for them. I look forward meeting you and your sweet little pet. We are usually home all the time. My husband works from home, so someone will be with your dog at all times except rare exceptions. We have a fenced yard and your dog will always be supervised. We also put gates on the front porch when a dog is visiting to avoid runaways. We have a friendly small Cavapoo so your dogs needs to get along with other dogs.

2. Sarah B.
“Sarah is the best, most reliable pet sitter I have ever had. She has created a bond with my cat, Texas Roadhouse, who gets excited everytime she comes to visit. She has cared for my pug Baloo, and kept him happy and healthy! Baloo is particularly excited when he sees Sarah walk through the door which leaves me knowing my pets are well loved when I am gone. Also, she is very communicative if she notices anything out of the ordinary with my pets, which I find comforting. She truly is an animal lover who will treat your pets like your own!”

6. Ryan M.
“5 Stars - Outstanding Cat Sitter! Ryan did an absolutely fantastic job watching my cat, Roger. From the start, her communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. She provided regular updates, complete with photos and notes that showed Roger was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Roger can be a bit shy, but she quickly warmed up to Ryan—which speaks volumes about Ryan’s calm and friendly approach with animals. I came home to a spotless space and a very content cat. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Roger was in such good hands. I highly recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a dependable, kind, and attentive pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Crystal has loved dogs since she was a kid. She came close to going to school to be a Vet. She treats her dogs the same way that most people treat their kids. She has always taken really good care of her own dogs. As some of her dogs have gotten older, she has had to take care of some of their special needs as their old age presented health issues. One of her dogs had diabetes. She constantly checked his sugars and made sure his insulin was given to him properly. She has also purchased therapeutic pet beds to ensure her dogs get the comfort they need and deserve!”
