Dog Walking in Shepherd Hills, Nashville, TN

“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.”

About: I've been watching dogs since I was 12 years old for family and friends. I’m a huge animal lover! I understand how important pets are to their owners, and I’d want someone to care for mine the way I care for others' babies. I’ve also cared for dogs with special restrictions and needs, so I’m comfortable with things like special food routines and medications. Let me know what you need, and I'll make it happen for you and your pets! I’m currently working at Publix, so my schedule isn’t a regular 9-5. However, sometimes that’s more helpful for me, and it could be more helpful for your pet too depending on the day. I have no problem coming on my lunch break for a minute, either. In my home, our dogs are our world. They get to sleep with us, they get to go on all of our trips. I will make sure your pet knows it’s loved, while you’re just out of the house or away on a trip. I can take them on walks or just let them get all the cuddles in they want. I’ve never had a problem with an animal trusting me 💕

About: Hello future friend, I'm a lifelong animal lover with over eleven years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. Whether it's energetic walks, cozy coach cuddle sessions, or keeping up with special diet and medications, I treat every pet like family. I don't believe in one-size fits all care. I take time to learn each pet's quirks (😊 MHA), routines, and favorite behind the ear/ belly rub spots. You'll get regular updates, photos, and peace if mind knowing your fur baby is happy and safe. As a full-time remote worker, I have the flexibility to build my schedule and pets are never left alone for long stretches. My day starts early, which means morning walks and feeding fit naturally into my routine. Afternoon and evenings are reserved for walks, playtime, cuddles, and ensuring they feel safe and loved before bedtime Whether it's a quick drop-in or full day sitting, I make sure every pet gets the attention they deserve. I treat every home and pet with the same level of care I'd want for my own. I know how important it is for both pet and owners to feel confident. I'll go Plus Ultra and keep open lines of communication with regular updates with photos and notes. You provide any instructions or guidelines for your fur baby (i.e. feeding schedule, medication or walk routines) and I'll follow all instructions to the letter. I want to be the best sidekick possible. So book with me and your fur baby will meet their second best friend (after you of course)!!

“Amanda is always on time, and keeps me up to date to when she’s on her way to being finished walking my boys. They get a great and long walk with her! So pleased I found her on Rover!! Definitely recommend Amanda!!! 5 stars all around!!”

About: Hello! My name is Jess! All of my life I have had dogs. They have always been a part of me. I started working with animals when I was very young, volunteering for fostering, working at shelters, and working for rescue groups. I grew up in the country where we used to have a ton of animals! Dogs, cats, (even chickens and gunnies). I now live in a spacious house in nashville with my hisband, daughter, 2 rescue dogs and rescue cat. The past year, I have been fostering for a local rescue. I’m so fortunate my two dogs get along well with others. My house is a dogs dream, as we have a huge fenced in back yard and I work from home! So they run until their heart is content. We welcome all breeds here and would love to meet you and your furry companion. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible! I let my dogs in and out many times a day - our house is equipped with all the toys and beds a dog could want I take safety very seriously. Especially when it’s a life I’m responsible for. Ensuring all locks are locked and precautions are in place before walking or letting out a dog is my number one focus. Then we can have all the fun!

About: Animals have always been my people. At any gathering, you’ll find me on the floor making a new four-legged friend. I have a natural ability to connect with pets, oftentimes more so than with humans! I have a calm and gentle energy that helps even shy or anxious animals feel safe and understood. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or keeping up with routines, I treat every pet like family. I’ve had pets in my life for as long as I can remember. Since I was little, my life has been filled with furry friends varying from dogs to cats to horses. I grew up with my beloved childhood dog, Freckles, who has been by my side since ten years old. I am no stranger to animals as I help take care of a friend’s three dogs and sixteen kitties (dinner time is an extravaganza!). I have also fostered several dogs, from playful pups to gentle seniors, and gained hands-on experience administering medication, providing comfort, and tailoring care to each dog’s unique needs. I care for an outdoor neighborhood kitty that hangs out on my back porch every evening as well. Most recently, I adopted my sweet little rescue dog Pumpkin, who filled my days with so much love and joy until her recent passing. Losing her has been incredibly hard, but it also reminded me how much purpose and happiness I find in caring for animals. Being around pets brings me peace and healing. I’m especially partial to small dogs (they hold a special place in my heart!), but I love caring for animals of all kinds and personalities. My experience fostering has taught me patience, empathy, and how to read an animal’s body language, so I can respond to their needs with love and understanding. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job; it’s about connection. Every wag, purr, and cuddle is a reminder of how special the bond between humans and animals can be. I have an incredibly flexible schedule that allows for freedom with my time. Taking care of pets is therapeutic rather than a chore or hassle : ) I treat all animals as if they are one of us! Your pet will be cared for as if they were my own, with genuine affection and attention to detail.

“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: My pet care experience comes from years of working closely with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. I’ve cared for energetic dogs, shy cats, playful kittens, and senior pets who need extra support. I’m patient, gentle, and always focused on making sure each pet feels loved and understood while their owners are away. I currently work full time! I plan my weekly schedule around the pets I care for, making sure they always get reliable and focused attention. Detailed & Reliable In my clients’ homes, I provide structured, attentive care based on each pet’s routine. I manage feeding times, fresh water, exercise, enrichment, medication (if needed), and cleanup. I pay close attention to behavior or health changes and keep communication open at all times. I ensure both the pet and the home are cared for with responsibility and respect.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, livestock, rodents, reptiles, pets of all kinds really - since I was 12 years old. Friends and family have relied on me to bathe, care, feed, water, and play with their pets whenever they need some extra help or go out of town in and outside of my home. I have 2 dogs of my own with vastly different personalities and sizes, and love getting to meet new pups whenever I can. I’m currently a stay at home mom, with reliable child care (when necessary) so I have open availability to care for pets in need of some love while owners are away or need some extra help. I love to run and play with dogs in a fenced yard or go out for a walk with a leash in a safe neighborhood or park. In this weather, sometimes it’s best to get the zoomies out with some toys inside when able!

“Shelby was incredibly thorough and professional while booking and during the walk. She sent a few photos and made sure that we knew that Nikita was well cared for. 100% would contact her again!”

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.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was a teenager and have cared for a range of animals, from older animals who need regular medication to puppies still learning how to be. I work part time, so pet care works right into my schedule and allows me to be very attentive with the animals. I am able to let dogs out often for potty breaks and take walks in mornings, afternoons and on my breaks the days that I work. I am not hosting pets at my own home at this time, so most of my work will be in clients’ homes. I’m happy to accommodate any house rules or preferences while inhabiting your space.

“Penny is very good with Duke and I feel comfortable when he is with her. She is kind and has a pleasing personally.”

About: I love animals of all size and breeds, including yours! I'll be more than happy to take care of your fur babies while you are away from home. They will be well-fed and loved with accommodations being met as needed. I know how to administer medication as needed, so you won't need to worry about your fur baby not receiving anything while you are gone. I am currently working full-time from 6AM till 2:30PM Monday thru Friday. I may be able to compromise for the morning routine, but I can 100% say that I will be available all afternoons and evenings. Weekends are free days for me so I will be available at all hours of the day. I live in small rental with two cats and a medium sized dog so I will be unable to care for pets in my home.

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

About: I love caring for animals and discovering their unique personalities. My whole life I’ve always had a cat or dog living with me, whether it be mine or my roommates. Making sure they know they are loved and safe is my top priority. I am an Assistant Director in the film and Television industry, during my downtime between jobs I have an ample amount of time in my days. With dogs I work hard to build a level of trust between me and the pup. Consistency and repetition is key for me. Each dog is different so it takes some effort to get to understand them.

About: No dog is the same, all have different personalities much like people. I like to take the time to learn and educate myself with the different ways dogs may react to a new care taker. I like to give the dogs/cats the space and time to trust me and I will always be there with open arms, happily. I work from home and for myself, my schedule will be open to whatever needs you and your fur babies need whether it’s before the sun rises or after it’s sets. Animals are like kids, you don’t want to trust just anyone with them. I promise to take care of your pet as I would my own, with love, care and a little too much attention!!

“Katie did a great job with Brody and my foster kittens! She always arrived around the specified time and really devoted her love and attention to my fur babies. I got plenty of picture updates during the walk as well. I highly recommend Katie, and I'd definitely rebook with her in the future!”

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.

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.
