About: I have been raising Huskies my whole life. Have raised 3 different puppies, owned at least a half dozen dogs over the years, and do well with dogs of all ages and condition. I work part time for FedEx so I am free every day before Noon and after 7PM. On weekends I am available any time. Would love to spend as much time doing this as possible each week! I have a large yard, not fenced in. I have no problem walking your dog or mine on leash as much as needed so no problem there. I am VERY careful because I have Huskies (they stay at my parents) and they will run away if they get loose. So I am conditioned to be on top of it when it comes to making sure dogs don't get loose.
About: Hi! I am Nilly, I am a certified Medical Assistant. I went to Middle Tennessee State University for my bachelor in psychology and I have received my MA certification through Vanderbilt University. My experience in healthcare has taught me the importance of being patient, attentive, responsible, and gentle when caring for others—qualities I bring into every pet-sitting experience. I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been something very close to my heart. I’ve grown up with German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, and Corgis, so I’m familiar with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and individual needs. Dogs have always brought me so much joy, and I truly love spending time with them, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving plenty of cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your beloved pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to make that experience as comfortable and worry-free as possible for both you and your furry family member. I will treat your pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities, and I would be honored to care for your four-legged family members while you’re away. 🐾❤️ My schedule is flexible and depends on each client’s needs. I’m happy to work with you to create a schedule that fits your pet’s routine, whether that includes daily visits, walks, feeding, or overnight care. I’ll plan my schedule accordingly to make sure your furry family members receive the time, attention, and care they deserve. I care for pets in their own home by following their usual routines and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I also respect each client’s home and follow any specific instructions to ensure their furry family members receive personalized care while their owners are away.
About: I have taken care of my own pets since childhood (from cats, to dogs, to rodents, to horses) and have worked with them at several jobs - including The Walt Disney Company. Throughout my education in becoming a therapist I strive to treat every person, and animal, with compassion and patience. My own cat has been on medication for several years, so I’m comfortable caring for aging pets or those who need more attention. I currently am a full-time student, so when I’m not in class I am at home. This provides a relatively free schedule that shifts with every semester. For the Fall I am free all day Tuesday and Fridays and every weekend, and the afternoons Wednesday and Thursday. The first thing is to listen to the pets, how they communicate, and what makes them feel most comfortable. It is their home and their safety that is top priority, and I want them to know I am a safe person.
“Kathryn was responsive and had no problem with my specific requests! I have a skittish rescue and she made sure to give both pups time and attention and keep them safe and sound while we were out of town. As an anxious pet parent I appreciate it!”
“Zoe did a great job with drop in visits/walking Maple and Millie! Excellent communication, on time and the pups loved her! Highly recommend! We will definitely be using her in the near future!! Thank you!”

From walks and playtime to overnight stays and lots of attention, my goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m happy to accommodate specific routines or needs. I’ll also make sure you get updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work a steady 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM job, which allows me plenty of time for dog sitting before and after work. In the mornings, I can provide walks, playtime, and ensure your dog is fed and comfortable before I leave. After work, I have the flexibility to take them on a walk, give them attention, and stick to their evening routine, whether that includes dinner, playtime, or just some extra affection. For overnight stays, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe and secure in my care, keeping up with their schedule and providing plenty of attention before and after my workday. On weekends, I have even more availability for longer walks, play sessions, and extra time to ensure they’re happy and comfortable. No matter the schedule, I’ll always make sure your dog gets the love, care, and routine they need! I would care for your dog with the same level of attention and love, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and safe while you’re away.

About: I got my first dog when I was 14, and caring for her taught me what it truly means to love and be responsible for a pet. She was part of my family for many years, and after she passed away a few years ago, I realized how rewarding it is to care for animals. Since then, friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they're away. I understand that every dog has its own personality and routine, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My background working in healthcare has also made me dependable, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure. Whether your dog needs a walk, playtime, medication, or just some extra attention, I'll treat them like they're my own. I currently work full-time, but I have availability before work, in the evenings, and on weekends for dog walks and drop-in visits. I do my best to be flexible and will always communicate clearly about my schedule. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I'll make sure your dog receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, and any special needs. I'm attentive to changes in behavior and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would give my own.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities.

I’m passionate about providing safe, loving, and attentive care to every dog I work with! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,334 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Strawtown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Strawtown. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
