“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lori and the care she has given my puppy, Frankie. From the moment I dropped him off, she made me feel completely comfortable and reassured that he was in great hands. She kept me updated daily with messages and pictures of his activities, and it was clear that Frankie was happy, relaxed, and truly enjoying himself — he looked like he was right at home. What meant the most to me was her kindness and flexibility during a very stressful time for me. I am currently in the hospital recovering from back surgery, and at the last minute my doctor told me I needed to stay another night. I reached out to Lori hoping it wouldn’t be a problem, and she immediately reassured me not to worry and that Frankie was perfectly fine staying another night. That simple kindness gave me so much peace of mind while I’m here recovering. Lori has been so attentive and loving with him — honestly, she spoiled him! It means the world to know that Frankie is being cared for and shown the same love and attention that I give him at home. I am incredibly grateful for Lori. Frankie absolutely has a permanent sitter whenever we need one in the future, and I would recommend her to anyone who wants their pet cared for like family.”
“They were strangers and then became besties. Amazing service. Cali and her and her kids got along so well, communicated well on updates. Using her again in a few weeks. I know Cali will be in good hands.”
“Ms. Eden was excellent sitter for my Ms. Carly while traveling for the holidays. She is a dog whisper and will be back again and again and again. Ms. Eden and family thank you for taking care of my Carly. 🙏🏾❤️”
“My pup Buddy was left in wonderful hands of Ken and Sam. Daily pics and videos were sent. Buddy loved roaming around their backyard. I will definitely be back to board in the future.”
“Kelli was great with Tiger. She kept us in the loop with daily pics and updates. Tiger had a great time getting walks and playing. We will be booking with Kelli again!”
“This was my first time using Rover, so I did not really know what to expect. Glynis surpassed all of my hopes! She took such good care of Buster - sent me photos everyday, sent me updates on how he was doing, and she made sure that he enjoyed himself. I would give her 6 stars! She made sure to know and follow his routine. He is relatively new to my home, as he was a rescue and had only been with me a couple of months. From his behavior when we got home, I know he was made to feel secure and cared for while he stayed with Glynis and her family. While he was happy to see me when I returned, I doubt that he missed me, as he had such positive experiences, as did I. I highly recommend her!”
“Lea did a great job caring for our puppy. She sent pictures everyday and made sure that he was able to slowly socialize with her own fur baby. We are already planning to use her again in the future.”
“Kandice was so loving and reassuring. She treated our fur babiea like her own. I loved that she shared daily updates and pictures. She's the absolute best and I will definitely use her again.”
“As parents of a new baby, we were very concerned about leaving our Marley anyway, however, based on the reviews of Langston we felt Marley would be in good hands. We did a visit before hand and Marley loved it and Langston was very good with her. During our trip, Langston kept us informed of how Marley was doing and sent plenty of pics. We give Langston a 5 star reveiw for caring for our baby.”
“Adrienne was a great sitter. I received daily pictures and a video of my fur baby. When I picked him up he seemed happy and at ease, which let me know he was taken care of. I will definitely use her again!”
“Tobie is the absolute best when it comes to taking care of your baby. She watched our fig Roscoe for the first time for 5 days and the amount of pictures and videos she sent my kids loved it. My dog became her watch dog wherever she went he went. She will always have us as a client. THANK U AGAIN”
“As always, Veronica is the absolute best sitter in the state! Drove 4 hours away so she could watch my cat, she's the only person I trust with him, I've always revieved pictures at least 2x a day, I have a very shy cat and to see him roaming around having fun instead of hiding under the bed was amazing, Veronica and her husband are great people, there is nobody else I reccomend or trust!”
“He treated our babies as if they were his own. I especially love how he sent us constant updates via pictures and videos. We will definitely use Raffael again!”
“I’m pretty sure I have worse separation anxiety being away from my Sophie than she has being away from me. Kayla is so kind and I could tell within just a few minutes of meeting her that my sweet senior pup was in great hands. It’s hard to find someone you trust with your babies — and I definitely trust and recommend Kayla!”
“Serria was wonderful and took exceptional care of our baby girl. We were concerned about how Zhuri would do with other animals, especially cats, but she got along well with Serria’s two dogs and cat. Serria sent daily photos of Zhuri bonding and relaxing with her eldest dog. One picture showed Zhuri outside in her spacious, fenced yard, where they had plenty of room to run and play. It was clear Zhuri felt comfortable in her home. Serria cared for our sweet girl as if she were her own. She was kind, responsive, and made the entire experience stress-free. Zhuri was in excellent hands with someone who clearly loves animals, and we truly appreciated the care and attention she received. Highly recommend!”
“ONG AMANDA And her family was great with Luis. I don’t think he wanted to come home. The communication was excellent pictures conversation all day every day. I definitely would recommend her and I will be using her again.”

“Linque was great with our cat. Our cat is on the shy side but within a couple days, Linque was able to make her comfortable and open up. I was also impressed by her responsiveness and diligence she puts in her role as an experienced cat sitter. Highly recommend Linque to all pet owners.”
“Leylah was an amazing pet sitter! Both Dallas and Dez loved her. Dez, who is usually cautious with new people, took to her right away, which was especially impressive. I appreciated the video and photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely contact her again the next time we go out of town!”
“Petra was an amazing sitter! She was able to board my cat for an extended period of time while i was traveling. She is very sweet, professional and had great communication. Petra took great care of my sweet girl and kept me updated every step of the way. I would definitely book her again for her services and recommend her care to my friends. Thank you Petra!”
“Jackie was great with our cat and our home while we were away. She was able to recognize signs of stress and adjust the care she provided to make sure our cat was happy and comfortable (he is typically on the skittish/nervous side as it is, so we wanted to make sure he was in good hands while out of town). She also sent us photos and updates while we were away. She was very kind and respectful. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“I recently boarded my cat with Estefania, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She truly loves animals and cares for them as if they were her own. My cat instantly felt at home under her care, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she goes above and beyond to make pets feel comfortable and safe. I love that she always sends me photos and videos of my baby. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable petsitter!”

About: I’ve taken care of many cats in my 14 years of pet sitting. Neighbors, family, and friends would entrust me to feed, play, walk and be attentive to their cat. I love every minute I get to learn more about the pets personality.
About: As a proud dog mom to two amazing pups a playful 1-year-old German Shepherd and a sweet 3-year-old Poodle I truly understand the energy, patience, and love dogs need at every stage.

I’m a stay-at-home mom with experience caring for my two dogs a one year old German Shepherd and a three year old Poodle. I provide pets with love, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment.

I treat every pet like part of my family and enjoy making their time with me fun and stress free.
“Jessica was great with our two cats! She sent us thorough updates with plenty of photos, and our boys looked like they were getting spoiled. She even managed to give our aloof cat his inhaler, which he is not a fan of. I'd recommend Jessica for cat drop-ins highly!”
“Nmantendi was so great! She sent pictures and videos of our pup while we were away, and kept in touch with us whenever we needed her. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve had a dog since a child, but about 5 years ago I began volunteering taking care of puppies at a local rescue in Nashville. From there, I adopted my first dog Carmelo, who I had for two years before epilepsy unfortunately shortened his life. After I healed, I began fostering dogs of all ages, mostly older just due to the need being higher. I found I have such a strong love for dogs that most don’t even reach. I wanted to be able to love old dogs who needed homes in their last days so I adopted Peppa who stayed with me until cancer won the fight. I still occasionally foster but since losing my full-time job, I have had to move to this side of things. I have pretty open availability right now. I am open for overnights. If I am able to go do some delivery for a few hours in between, that is so helpful. I follow directions to a T whether inside or out of the clients home. Providing the dog comfort, safety and familiarity is my top priority. I am not trying to raise or train your dogs. I just want to let them know that when you’re gone, they are always in good hands.

About: I've been caring for pets for over 10 years — dogs and cats belonging to friends and family who trust me completely, and that trust means everything to me. What makes my care different is that it's never one-size-fits-all. If your dog lives for walks, we walk. If they're all about the ball, we play. If they just want to curl up next to someone, I'm right there. Every pet gets care shaped around who they are, not a standard routine. My home is child-free and pet-free, so your baby isn't competing for attention — they are the focus of my entire day. And when you pick them up? They'll be freshly bathed, happy, and ready to go home. Baths are always on me. PLEASE NOTE: I can board up to 4 pets from the same family at one time, as the pets all know each other. I do not take multiple pets from different families to board at the same time. It's often stressful for the animals and I don't get to enjoy your pet if he is stressed out by strange animals. My home is child-free and animal-free, which means your pet gets a calm, quiet environment with zero stress from other animals and no chaotic energy. They are the sole focus of my day. IMPORTANT: I only take pets from one family at a time. I want to enjoy your dog. For dogs: I follow your routine to the letter — feeding times, walk schedule, medications, treats, favorite spots. I ease new guests in gently because I know the first few hours matter most. If your dog loves walks, we walk. If they're a ball dog, we play. They get care shaped around who they are, not a generic routine. Every dog goes home with a complimentary bath so they're clean, happy, and ready to see you. For cats: I understand cats aren't small dogs — they need something completely different. I give them a safe, quiet space to settle in at their own pace, no forcing interaction. I read their cues — whether they want lap time, window watching, or just a calm human nearby. Litter box hygiene is spotless and non-negotiable. I'm very careful about doors, windows, and escape points so your indoor cat stays safely indoors. For all pets: I monitor eating and behavior closely and flag anything off straight away. You'll get regular photo and video updates — as many or as few as you'd like. I've been caring for pets for over 10 years for people who trust me like family, and I take that trust seriously. My goal is simple: your baby comes home calm, happy, and exactly themselves. I do have a fenced yard but do not allow dogs to go out alone unsupervised. I enjoy walking dogs and will keep the routine that you have with your dog. I only take cats and dogs at the same time from the same family. I will always confirm any animal is up to date with vaccines and flea treatments first.

“Candace did a great job. My dog Jax seemed to be very happy with her. She was also very kind and helped me at the absolute last minute because I was in a tight spot. Would definitely book again.”
“Christina seems to have an excellent knowledge of dogs and how they interact with one another. She’s been very accommodating and communicates clearly and quickly via this app. I’ve quickly become very comfortable leaving my dog with her!”

About: Pets have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for all kinds of animals since childhood; from dogs and cats to rats, hamsters, snakes, birds, and more. My experience with so many different animals has taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. I’ve been pet sitting for 10+ years, and I genuinely treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime and attention, a calm and cozy environment, medication, special routines, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. When your pets are with me, you can have peace of mind knowing they’ll receive lots of love, patience, attention, and individualized care. I’m home full time, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention and companionship. I love being able to give pets the exercise, interaction, and care they need so they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, medications, and special instructions, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship. In my home, your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have 2 sweet dogs and 2 cats to keep your fur baby company!
“Kayla was amazing. Her energy was great and Kasper loved her so much that he wasn't ready to leave. She also gave videos and pictures during his stay. He is all tuckered out and ready for bed early. 😊”
“Mallory is truly one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. Her genuine love and passion for dogs are so evident in the way she cares for them. I would trust her with my dog a thousand times over. She takes such wonderful care of him and is always patient, gentle, and loving. My dog absolutely loves going to her house. He gets so excited that the moment I start getting dressed, he heads straight for his bag because he knows he’s going to see Mallory!”

I’m a hybrid software engineer only in office Mondays Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9AM-4PM this is including commute time. If I’m boarding I only board 1 dog at a time. I get acquainted quick! I tend to work on the couch or desk if one provided and abide by potty/feeding schedules as needed!

“Jackie is wonderful. She not only took my little guy for a walk but cleaned up his sleeping area when he wasn’t feeling well. She even took on this task last minute. I’m so appreciative of her!!”
“Lori has been walking my dog for about a week while I am in a walking boot and she is so great! She is always on time and is very communicative. My dog absolutely loves her and has been anticipating her visits on the days she is scheduled (he starts looking out of the window when it is close to time for her to come).”

About: Hi! I’m Antonio, and I’ve had dogs for all 29 years of my life. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I’ve always loved. My best friend is Boss, my 6-year-old Pit Bull. Raising him has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding that every dog has their own personality and needs. I’m returning to Rover after taking a few years away, and this time my goal is different. I’m building a professional pet care business that I plan to grow into my full-time career. That means every booking matters, and every dog in my care is treated like family. My home offers plenty of space for dogs to feel comfortable, and I have a large yard where they can safely enjoy supervised playtime, exercise, and fresh air. Whether your pup is here for daycare, overnight boarding, a walk, or a drop-in visit, they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. I know how difficult it can be to leave your dog with someone else, so communication is a priority. I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and having a great time. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being around dogs. My mornings begin after I drop my son off at preschool, giving me plenty of time throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and one-on-one attention. In the afternoons, I’m away for about two hours while coaching football nearby, but I’m less than 10 minutes from home and plan my schedule to ensure every dog is comfortable and well cared for before and after practice. My evenings are dedicated to spending time with the dogs in my care, making sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and a consistent routine. I take pet care seriously and make it a priority every day. I provide every dog with the same level of care and attention that I give my own dog, Boss. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. In my home, dogs have plenty of space to relax indoors and enjoy supervised time in my large yard. I make sure they always have fresh water, a clean environment, lots of attention, and a safe, comfortable place to rest. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I monitor interactions carefully to ensure everyone stays safe and happy. For drop-in visits and walks, I respect my clients’ homes while making sure their pets receive the care, exercise, affection, and companionship they need. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident that their pets are being well cared for.
About: I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and care. What sets me apart is how attentive and dependable I am—I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m confident with basic puppy training like leash walking and reinforcing commands, and I also provide gentle senior care, including medication support and mobility assistance. I treat every pet like family and always follow their routine to keep them happy while you’re away 🐾 Pet care fits smoothly into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special needs to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. I’m flexible with mornings, evenings, and weekends, which allows me to maintain pets’ regular routines and provide dependable care whether it’s daily check-ins or extended stays. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority in my schedule rather than an afterthought. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I always follow the pet’s usual routine, rules, and instructions to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and pet-safe by removing hazards, securing doors and gates, and supervising pets at all times. I respect my clients’ homes, provide regular updates, and communicate clearly so owners feel confident and informed. Whether in my home or theirs, I create a safe, loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for.
About: I’ve had a dog since a child, but about 5 years ago I began volunteering taking care of puppies at a local rescue in Nashville. From there, I adopted my first dog Carmelo, who I had for two years before epilepsy unfortunately shortened his life. After I healed, I began fostering dogs of all ages, mostly older just due to the need being higher. I found I have such a strong love for dogs that most don’t even reach. I wanted to be able to love old dogs who needed homes in their last days so I adopted Peppa who stayed with me until cancer won the fight. I still occasionally foster but since losing my full-time job, I have had to move to this side of things. I have pretty open availability right now. I am open for overnights. If I am able to go do some delivery for a few hours in between, that is so helpful. I follow directions to a T whether inside or out of the clients home. Providing the dog comfort, safety and familiarity is my top priority. I am not trying to raise or train your dogs. I just want to let them know that when you’re gone, they are always in good hands.

“They were strangers and then became besties. Amazing service. Cali and her and her kids got along so well, communicated well on updates. Using her again in a few weeks. I know Cali will be in good hands.”
“This was my first time using Rover, so I did not really know what to expect. Glynis surpassed all of my hopes! She took such good care of Buster - sent me photos everyday, sent me updates on how he was doing, and she made sure that he enjoyed himself. I would give her 6 stars! She made sure to know and follow his routine. He is relatively new to my home, as he was a rescue and had only been with me a couple of months. From his behavior when we got home, I know he was made to feel secure and cared for while he stayed with Glynis and her family. While he was happy to see me when I returned, I doubt that he missed me, as he had such positive experiences, as did I. I highly recommend her!”
“As parents of a new baby, we were very concerned about leaving our Marley anyway, however, based on the reviews of Langston we felt Marley would be in good hands. We did a visit before hand and Marley loved it and Langston was very good with her. During our trip, Langston kept us informed of how Marley was doing and sent plenty of pics. We give Langston a 5 star reveiw for caring for our baby.”
“Adrienne was a great sitter. I received daily pictures and a video of my fur baby. When I picked him up he seemed happy and at ease, which let me know he was taken care of. I will definitely use her again!”
“As always, Veronica is the absolute best sitter in the state! Drove 4 hours away so she could watch my cat, she's the only person I trust with him, I've always revieved pictures at least 2x a day, I have a very shy cat and to see him roaming around having fun instead of hiding under the bed was amazing, Veronica and her husband are great people, there is nobody else I reccomend or trust!”
“He treated our babies as if they were his own. I especially love how he sent us constant updates via pictures and videos. We will definitely use Raffael again!”
“Serria was wonderful and took exceptional care of our baby girl. We were concerned about how Zhuri would do with other animals, especially cats, but she got along well with Serria’s two dogs and cat. Serria sent daily photos of Zhuri bonding and relaxing with her eldest dog. One picture showed Zhuri outside in her spacious, fenced yard, where they had plenty of room to run and play. It was clear Zhuri felt comfortable in her home. Serria cared for our sweet girl as if she were her own. She was kind, responsive, and made the entire experience stress-free. Zhuri was in excellent hands with someone who clearly loves animals, and we truly appreciated the care and attention she received. Highly recommend!”
“Milan did an excellent job making me feel comfortable with leaving my precious dog with her for the first time. She sent pics and videos and my dog was so happy in her care. Milan was also very accommodating and patient with me. I highly recommend her for professional pet services!”
“They were the best people in the whole world my dog was timid to anybody and everything else but us but they got her eating out of their hands I highly recommend tours for any sitting”
“Jen made us feel comfortable leaving our two toy poodles with her. We love how she had everything set up. She sent us pictures of our dogs while we were gone and we loved it. Thanks Jen!!!”

“We cannot say enough about Susan. She truly cares for the pets that come stay with her. She was very thorough in asking all the questions to make sure our blind pup was in good hands. Susan and her family were very caring and I never worried the entire time we were away. Highly recommend especially if you have a pup that needs special attention.”
“Amazing sitter. She loves your dog like her own and it makes all the difference. She went above and beyond. I am so grateful to have found her and that my baby got to spend Christmas with someone who had so much love for her. She even made a little video compilation of her stay for the holidays ❤️ So thoughtfull! I will definitely be booking with her again. She is amazing.”
