“Emily was fantastic with Minnie! Her home is incredibly dog-friendly, with plenty of beds, blankets, and a great backyard for play. Minnie stayed for one night, went on her walks, and I felt completely confident she was in good hands. If we’re ever back in Nashville, we would definitely book Emily again. Highly recommend!”

“John took such great care of Toby! Highly recommend! Kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout Toby’s stay. It made me feel so much better knowing my pup was in good hands. I’d definitely book with him again!”

“Katherine was the best!! She made Koda feel right at home, snuggled with him, walked him, and got some good backyard play time in. I was very grateful that she took such good care of my nervous boy! Definitely will reach out again :)”

“Mochi had a lovely time with Margaret and met many nice new friends. Margaret was easy to work with, very communicative and sent lots of cute pictures. We will definitely come back!”


“Alexandra and Katya were the best I could ask for. They took Layla in an emergency situation and treated her with so much care. My dog had a lot of extra needs and they were so kind and caring. Cooked for her, and made sure she was comfortable. They also kept me updated everyday with pictures. I would choose them again in a heart beat. Thank you ladies so much!!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“First time trying Rover and can’t recommend Madeline enough! She was great from start to finish! Extremely communicative, thoughtful, and energetic. I know Piper had a great time during her stay and I’m sure anyone’s furry friend would have the same great experience!”

“Austin was incredible, and I would absolutely use him again! He sent me updates multiple times a day about how my dog was doing, pictures etc. He truly loves and cares about dogs, and is one of the best sitters I've ever used on Rover. Thank you so much!”


“Laura was fantastic! Dela loved her and had a wonderful time at her house. She was very communicative and even sent photos and videos. Dela will definitely be returning.”

“Aubrey was amazing!!! She clearly has a love of dogs! I have never seen my dog get so excited when we used her the second time! She couldn’t wait to see Aubrey and her pup again!”


“Ana was super quick and responsive! She was also very understanding and helpful when our plans had changed due to unforeseen circumstances. She was wonderful with my pup and took great care of my dog for the weekend!”

“I have hired through Rover before but Allison was hands down the most communicative dog sitter. It was nice receiving frequent videos and thoughtful check- ins. She seems really in tune with dogs and their behavior and needs. Would be happy to hire again.”

“Dianne was great with my dog Tahoe! She was always super responsive and sending regular updates or photos of him. I could tell Tahoe felt very at home and safe with her which was a huge relief to me while I was away for the week! Would absolutely reach out to Dianne again the next time Tahoe needs a sitter!”

“Nathan and his family were so helpful and kind to take care of our girl when we needed help with boarding her for the day last minute. It was my first time boarding with her but I felt totally at ease after reading the other reviews and then meeting them upon drop-off. I would happily bring our dog back for another stay if we needed again.”

About: I have always grown up around dogs since I was in second grade. Grew up with two dogs that both lived a happy 20 years! Currently, have a spoiled dog and cat in our home and love meeting more. Our dogs shave always been well trained so that could be a bonus of hiring me as your sitter! I am always home as I work from home so I would be able to accommodate any type of schedule during the week. I would love a consistent routine to be checking in on them but I am flexible as and can be hired as needed as well! Since I work from home the pets are always able to roam freely. I let them out and play with them multiple times a day and of course they are never short on attention that I give them.
“Jessy was amazing!! I can’t recommend her enough. I get so nervous leaving my dog but Jessy has put my nerves at ease. Bella had such a good time, we already have her second stay booked!”

“Kelly was an incredible host to our pup! She communicated often with updates and shared photos. Our dog loved playing with her pups and got lots of outdoor time. I will definitely be contacting her to sit for our pup again.”

“Michelle and Bryce were great with Buster. Quick and friendly communication before and during his stay. They sent pictures every day that showed him making himself right at home. I could tell he was well cared for and enjoyed his stay. Would definitely use them again.”

“I have a very skiddish cat so for me to leave her with Hannah and know my cat was comfortable enough to come out and get some attention while I was gone was very reassuring! My cat was well fed and well loved while I was traveling and I'm very appreciate to know I can trust Hannah to do it again!”

“Morgan was very responsive and communicative leading up to the booking and did a great job caring for my cat! I really appreciated the time and care she spent during her visits as well as the many photos she took and shared with me.🙂”

“Whitney was incredible! We had her check in for daily visits with our cat Kirby while we were out of the country for two weeks, and she was dependable and timely, providing pictures and a written update each time she came. She even watered our plants for us. She was responsive, kind, prompt, and professional.”

“Jill is the absolute best! She’s come to visit the cats on more than one occasion when we have been out of town and we will continue to book with her in the future. We love Jill!”


“Yan did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away. My one cat is shy so she didn’t get to meet her but she played with my other cat, gave her treats, and showed her some love. The litterbox was kept clean as well. She also sent me plenty of cute photos to update me with each visit! I would highly recommend Yan for looking after your felines!”


“Athena was excellent with Leo and Louie! She is great at communicating how they were doing, what their behaviors were, and sent lots of photos of my cats. I would definitely rebook with her.”

“Bae Lee helped me out at the literal last minute when I was already out of town and was able to do a drop in for my cat that day and the next day as well. Very very appreciative of her patience with my miscommunications due to terrible phone and internet service lol. Will definitely use Bae Lee again!”

“Jessica took awesome care of my kitty while I was gone!! This was my first time using rover but I’ll definitely be booking with Jessica again in the future. She sent great updates and pictures on both visits.”


“Dana has always taken great care of our girls, she goes above and beyond and is very thorough with check ins and keeping us informed of their behavior. We will always rebook for any trips if she is available!”

“Emily took wonderful care of my fur baby, Sugar, while we were visiting Nashville. She has a large fenced yard where the dogs can play, and I appreciated the extra safety measures she took. Emily put Sugar’s collar on in addition to her harness in case she somehow got loose, which showed me she was thinking ahead and treating Sugar like one of her own. Before I left, Emily carefully introduced Sugar to the other dogs and made sure everyone got along and that Sugar was comfortable. That gave me tremendous peace of mind. I felt completely comfortable leaving my girl in her care, and it was obvious Sugar was well loved and well cared for while we were away. I would happily trust Emily with Sugar again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and conscientious pet sitter.”

About: Welcome to my profile! For 6 years I’ve shared my life with a rescue dog (Buster) and have walked and boarded dogs regularly since moving to Nashville in 2024. Buster loves having company around! I’m especially good with shy or protective rescues, but I can accommodate any size or breed of dog. Puppies are welcome as well. Calm energy, reliable routines, and great care guaranteed. Quick weekend getaway? Running out of town on a last-minute notice? 2 week Vacation? Just reach out and let me know what dates you need covered and I’m your guy! Buster has proven to be a good hang for any dog. You can ensure that your dog will not be bored or bothered! From long walks by the river to movie nights chilling on the couch, my spot has proven to be a great place to host your pup. Send me a request and I will be quick to respond! I understand that leaving your pup with a complete stranger can be a bit nerve-wracking. Especially if your dog has any specific needs. Worrying about how your dog is doing while you’re out of town is the last thing need to be concerned about. I will make sure to set up a meet-and-greet prior to your pup’s stay to ensure that trust is established and that you are comfortable and confident in the decision to book with me 🤙 I can work around whatever your needs are! My job is flexible and I can work from home. You can guarantee that your dog will be given proper attention and exercise throughout the duration of their stay. Safe, dog-proofed home in an apartment complex right by the riverwalk with lots of dog-friendly accommodations. Will follow your exact routines and needs. And of course, daily photos and updates!
“Robin was exceptional!!! I would 100% revisit her every time I am in Nashville. She created such a welcoming and comforting space for my Tucci, made sure she was active, and constantly communicated updates! Robin was super friendly, flexible, and she had so much access to good green, safe, dog-friendly spaces! Best sitter ever! Thanks Robin!”

“Nola had a great first day with Maggie. It made me so happy knowing she was in good hands and had a fenced in yard to play in. Maggie sent great photos all day, and Nola smelled so good at pick up! Definitely going to keep Maggie for future visits!”

“Katherine was great, she was so nice and Benny seemed so happy and relaxed after he left her house. She took him for a walk, and sent updates and photos. I highly recommend her!”


“Laura is the best! I have to drop my dog off early in the morning and often pick her up late in the evening because I work 12 hr shifts. My dog has the best time hanging with Laura and her pups”
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Cosmo and kept me updated throughout the day with lots of messages and photos. Cosmo had a fantastic day, and we will definitely be coming back to her. Highly recommend!”

“Teresa was super friendly, helpful, efficient, and flexible. She made our first time using Rover very comfortable. Coco loved taking a break from our crazy vacation to hang out while we toured some museums.”

“Carolyn was a fantastic dog sitter for us. Our dog Fillmore enjoyed spending the day with her. She was very responsive and provided great updates. I would recommend her to anyone and plan to use her again in the future.”

“Toni is wonderful with Koda. She takes great care of him and he loves being at her home with her dog, Quincy! We always feel at ease when Koda is with Toni. Great communication and very caring. We appreciate her very much.”

About: Hi! We are Saori and Jonathan. We love pups and hope to take care of yours. Jonathan grew up caring for his family dog, and we have regularly taken care of friends' dogs for 10+ years. We finally adopted our own rescue dog in 2020 (an adorable little Beagle named Alfie), who has taken a *very* long time to come out of his shell. We have a lot of experience working with professionals to improve Alfie's anxiety. That experience has taught us a lot about reading dog body language and the importance of creating an environment that makes nervous dogs more comfortable. Your dog will get that same loving, calm energy here. We strive to make our home a dog-friendly location safe for every dog. Saori works part-time from home, and therefore has a lot of flexibility to play with your pooch and spend quality time together! On a typical day, we take dogs for a walk on the quiet neighborhood streets, on the trails in Shelby Bottoms, or in the dog park (if they are up for it). On weekends, we like to take a longer walk on trails whenever we can, and have plenty of cozy downtime at home in between. Given our own dog's separation anxiety, someone is always at home. If we ever need to leave them alone, we will let you know. We have fenced-in front and back yards where your pup can enjoy a sniffing adventure, playing fetch, or sunbathing on the lawn. We have dog beds throughout the house, and our canine guests are allowed on any furniture. We do not crate our dog, but can keep the same routine you have at home and let your dog sleep wherever they are most comfortable. We feed our dog twice a day and can accommodate other schedules or feeding dogs separately.
About: When you're looking for someone to care for your beloved pets and home, you want reliability and experience. That's exactly what you get when you choose me. I've been dog sitting for years, giving countless furry friends the attention and exercise they need to thrive. Plus, with my house sitting services, you can have peace of mind knowing your home is secure and well-maintained while you're away. It's a complete package of care for both your pets and your property. I currently do not have a job so I’m free everyday mostly. I have a very flexible schedule and am very quit to communicate with text and call. I have a yellow lab to keep your dog company if they come over. I do not have a fenced yard but can easily take them on a walk or even the dog park that is right down the road from my house.
“Our girl had the best time with Paris and his other daycare pups! He was so accommodating, flexible with times, and sent lots of photos to put us at ease! She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up!!!! Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of many kinds for the last 8 years. Sometimes up to 10 at a time in the same house. I have A dog and cat of my own and grew up with many as a kid also. I absolutely love being around animals and I will treat yours as my own. Will go above and beyond to make sure they are loved and taken care of in whatever way they need. I’ve taken care of and had senior dogs (16-17 years old) and young dogs (as young as 3 months old). I’ve taken care of diabetic cats and dogs for 8 years and know how to give shots if/when needed, as well as given other medication if needed. I’ve done basic training with my own dog and others i have watched. I will care for your animal no matter the age or type! I work from home and work for myself, so I make my own schedule and have plenty of free time at any time of the day. I am willing to come to you and do whatever is needed. Whether that’s a walk once or twice a day, play time in the backyard or quick check in. I know how to crate a dog as well if needed.
“Leah is a 💎! Always great at communicating and my dog loves seeing her! She has went above and beyond for our family-even cleaned up a terrible potty accident that involved a roomba! Leah is one of a kind and I’m thankful for her!”

About: I have a knack for winning over pets, especially the anxious or nervous ones. I like to be a safe, unconditionally loving place for each and every one of them. I am a life coach, so I have a very fluid schedule with a lot of gaps. Care for animals easily fits into my schedule, or should I say, can easily match their schedule :) I treat your home (and your pets) as you would. There's a good chance your home would be even a little tidier after I leave. I want you to have the same, "ah, it's so nice to trust this person" feel I would want.
“Anna has been awesome and walking my dog for weeks and understands her little quirks. She’s also responsive and follows instructions. Bummed that her PhD is picking up and she won’t be able to walk Juno during the day anymore.”

About: My pup recently passed so looking for some new friends to shower with my love and affection. In addition to my dog, I’ve always enjoyed watching friends’ pets when they’re traveling, but now that I don’t have any pets in my own house, figured I would look beyond my friends for some opportunities. I work remotely, so my schedule is really flexible for drop ins or spending time over at your house. Whatever your needs are, I can probably make them work. Every pet has unique needs! I’m flexible in making my services fit to each pup or kitty I meet. My own dog is an anxious, reactive old man, so I know how to be patient when needed but also love to play/walk/run with a dog who wants those things too.
About: I have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was 15 :) I love all aged pups and love long walks with them! Currently a Nurse at Vanderbilt and I am saving up money for my fiancé' and I's wedding next year :) I currently work 7-5 on M-F I am available after 6 any of those days and all day on Tuesdays and weekends. I am also available early mornings around 5am if needed :) I treat every dog in a way that fits their needs. I understand that some pups need time to warm up to new faces and some of them love new friends! I am happy to discuss your pets needs.

About: Have been caring for dogs since I was a kid, and many different breeds across the years. Labs, setters, and various shepherds. I also owned a rabbit growing up and have cared for horses. I work fully remotely and have a flexible schedule. I can easily stop for bathroom breaks while housesitting, go on walks during the day, or work remotely anywhere with wifi. I love to read and have put a lot of time into understanding dog body language, respectful touch for pets, and also just love to see them happy and content. Any dog I care for I would treat as my own.
“Riley and Victoria did an amazing job taking care of my fur baby while I was away. They communicated thoroughly and were flexible if I needed any modification to the plan. I will def use them again.”

About: I have been pet sitting for friends, family members, and neighbors since I was in middle school. I have also always been a regular volunteer at the animal shelters, so I have experience with all kinds of dog personalities, behaviors, and activity levels. I have trained all my dogs myself so if you are looking for help with a puppy/newly adopted dog, I’d love to help encourage those good behaviors while you are away! I work a pretty relaxed, work from home schedule. I am extremely active so would love to help you out with walks while you are at work, but would also love some couch potato company if that’s what your pet is into! Currently not available for any new walk/drop in requests Mondays & Wednesdays from 11-2. For drop-in visits, I will always take the time to figure out what your pet needs, and never make them feel rushed! For walks, I will cater our time to whatever your pet is looking for, whether that is as much distance as possible or as many stops and sniffs as possible! The end goal is your pet coming home happy and healthy and I’m more than happy to do whatever that takes!
About: Hello! I'm Alexis. I've owned animals all my life. I signed up for Rover to be able to help people care for their dogs. I can provide all basic care and love them like they're my own. I have years of animal experience with dogs and cats as well as wild animals. Right now I am currently working full time so I can only accept pets that are ok being dropped in on either early in the morning or late in the day! However my schedule does change so feel free to reach out! I would like to keep your pets routine as similar as possible to their routine with you! Any favorite spots your dog likes to walk to or specific meal times will be noted and followed
“Kendra did a great job walking my dog, Chewie! She took him on long walks and sent me really nice pictures that reassured me he was happy and well cared for. I appreciated knowing he was in good hands, and I’d definitely use her again in the future.”


“Thomas was amazing with my puppy & she gravitated towards him from when she first saw him. Beautiful spirit and grate with my baby. In grateful for the time you spent walking her for me. And I highly recommend.”

“Miles was prompt, flexible, and caring for my mini-poodle puppy, Kylo. Kylo has a lot of energy, and Miles has been sure to go play hard so that Kylo is a bit more chill the rest of the day. We couldn’t be happier. Thanks, Miles!”

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs ranging from puppy/kitten to senior! I have experience with many different breeds and can adapt to your needs. I grew up with 3 cats & a golden retriever and currently have a kitty of my own. I am very active so I love to go for long walks and play, but I also love to cuddle and chill out. I’ve been looking after animals since I was young and would love to walk, feed, bathe, and love on your baby! I am currently a university student on break with a part time job so I have time for frequent visits and am very flexible with my schedule. I have house sat for neighbors and friends throughout the last few years and am very familiar with staying in others homes. One of my biggest priorities is safety of both your home and your pets. I will make sure to lock doors, turn off lights, and clean up after pets and myself. I am open to day visits or overnight stays!
