“Ken was a fantastic parent to our Ava while we were visiting Bristol for a bit. He let us come on and get our dog acquainted with the surroundings and kept us up to date with pictures throughout the stay. He genuinely seems to care for the animals he watches and treats them as guests in his home. Highly recommend!”
“She is the best! I wouldn’t leave him anywhere else!!! Has a big back yard! Which he loves to run!! She takes them on hikes! (Which I’m totally impressed with!). Keeps him busy! I’m afraid he’s not going to want to come home!”
“Amanda did a wonderful job! Very friendly. Took great care of our two dogs. And provided an update every day we were gone, sometimes including photos. Will definitely use her again.”
“Can’t recommend Hannah enough! She has been SO great to work with, has the best yard for playing, sent lots of pictures/updates, and our dog loves the whole family! We’re so happy to have found her, and are looking forward to more stays in the future!”
“I can’t say enough about how great Lilly is. She was so accommodating. We set up a meet and greet(since this was our first experience) that went very well, then during the entire time we were gone she communicated daily, sending video and pictures, which made us feel so much better since this was our first time having any type of dog sitting Ever! Yes! I am a nervous dog mom but Lilly made my first experience so much easier. We just love her! And highly recommend her. ❤️”
“Do you want your pets to feel so at home and comfortable that they are upset when they leave? Mark's house is the place to be! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark helped us on short notice and was able to provide us peace and reassurance that our babies were cared for! Mark kept our male and female German Shepherds, and they had an absolute blast. Mark sent us multiple photos and videos and kept us very up-to-date on what they were doing throughout their visit. He asked questions about their personalities and needs that showcased his care and attention to detail. With his knowledge and experience with German Shepherds, it really shined in the care he provided them! I would definitely recommend Mark, and especially recommend Mark to people with German Shepherds or working line dogs! We and our babies would love to use Mark again!”
“Carly is awesome! Once again she has taken such good care of my fur baby! I never worry about my little girl when Carly watches her. I know she’ll get lots of love and cuddles! I highly recommend Carly!”
“We were heartbroken when our normal sitter we found on here moved away! We tried a few others on here and none loved them like Jessica did… until now! I felt completely at ease as soon as we walked in and Lucy made herself right at home. Alexa has kept me updated the whole time and loved her like she was her own. She has become our new favorite dog person!”

“Love that we have someone we can trust with our fur baby! Cassandra is so good with our Pepper who is always so excited to see her. Cassandra was even great about being flexible with time for us. 💯 recommend her!”
“Thom was the absolute BEST dog sitter I have ever had. And I have been using rover for years! He sent me frequent pictures, videos, and updates of my girl while she was there. He took amazing care of her and handled her high energy so well! He is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and so kind. I have never felt more comfortable leaving my girl with a new sitter. I recommend him to everyone!”
“Kelley has been absolutely amazing with my dogs! Thank you for all the photos and FaceTimes! Without a doubt, I would use your services again. Thank you for taking such great care of Aubri and Remi! 💛”
“Very polite and punctual when picking up my fur baby. She communicated very well and sent pictures showing how much fun my baby was having!!! Will definitely be reaching out again when we need another sitter!!”
“This was a last minute booking and I couldn’t be happier. We just picked Hank up and he didn’t even seem excited to see us - that’s when you know your baby was well loved! I’m so thankful to have found Jennifer- Hank was right at home.”
“Natalie was wonderful with my nervous boy. She took her time to get him acclimated and let him do this at his own pace. He was so happy when I picked him up and I could tell he had a great time! Natalie also sent me a lot of videos and pictures during his stay. I would not hesitate to use her again. Thank you, Natalie!”
“This is our 2nd time using Erica & we're just as pleased. When we found out we were going to need to board our dogs last minute, I was thrilled to see her calendar was open. She really worked with us on drop off & pick up and she keeps me posted about all of the fun they're having. She'll always be our go-to!”
“Cheryl was excellent and took great care of our Lab mix! She sent photos and made sure she asked all the important questions prior to her stay. She offered flexible times in dropping off and picking up which was super helpful as well. Definitely using her again ❤️”

“Amanda was amazing from the first meeting to the end of my vacation. Communication (pics included) was great. She wasn’t afraid to ask questions and share concerns. My boy Lotus is a scaredy-cat and quite shy but he took to Amanda day one. I felt very confident my babies were very well cared for while I was away. Great relief knowing I didn’t have to worry about them and could focus on fun.”
“Sam does an excellent job. The cats were just as fat and happy upon my return. It was a week long trip and knowing Sam was taking care of the cats was a huge relief. I've already hired her for my next trip.”
“Kelly was able to fit us in — same day request!! She did a great job with our big dog, and I loved the ongoing communication during her visit. 5 stars and would recommend!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I'm new to the area and no longer have my best friend to cat sit. I wanted to travel to spend Christmas with family so turned to Rover. I felt confident leaving them in Ken's care even before I left. He lives up to his rating!”
“Alyson is an attentive and caring sitter going above and beyond. During her stay my cat had an emergency medical issue that Alyson was able to not only take her to the emergency vet for but then made sure she received her medications as prescribed. I was initially worried but I knew Alyson was taking such good care of her and she kept me up to date on how she was doing. Thank you Alyson for going above and beyond and keeping my cat safe and cared for.”
“McKinley is great....a very nice young lady! I got to meet her for this first time and she met my kitty boo. She was very sensitive to both my quirky cat and me! I knew he (Seven) would be in good hands! I am very particular and McKinley is too! She feels like the perfect fit for us! Her experience shows, probably because she has several animals of her own (dogs and cat) and is a vet assistant. I'm looking forward to using her again. If you need someone who will "get it" with your pet, you need to reach out to her! Thank you McKinley!”
About: I'm currently a stay at home mom of an 8 year old girl. We have a dog of our own right now that is a Corgi/shepard mix named Harley. I've always had dogs and cats my entire life and love taking care of animals and going on walks with them. I am originally from NJ and just moved to Tn in April. I worked at an animal shelter in NJ where I took care of the dogs and some newborn kittens. I've don't have much experience with dogs with disabilities but that won't stop me from wanting to work with them. My dog Harley is a very friendly dog and loves to play so if your dog is friendly she'd love to meet them too!
“This is the first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased. Sara is absolutely wonderful with my cats, they are hesitant with new people but she had them trusting her by the second visit. I loved the updates and notes daily, plus the pictures. I think we have found our pet sitter!”
About: I am admittedly that person who goes “Hi! Who are you?!” in a high-pitched voice to every animal I pass. If you followed me on Instagram, you’d realize how obsessed I am with other people’s pets and am usually introducing myself (with permission of course). I’ve been around animals since birth (I was basically raised in a zoo). We had multiple dogs, cats, rats, chickens, snakes, bunnies, and birds. Through college and my mid-twenties I lived with my roommate who had 3 dogs and 3 cats and I would help care for them. For the past four years I have been the designated pet sitter for a friend’s Bernese Mountain puppy, three schnauzers, a senior beagle, and my neighbor’s lab/pit mix, Guinea pig, cat and turtle! I work completely from home and have an extremely flexible schedule. If I don’t have meetings during the day, I’m available to watch or walk your pet during work hours! I am down to just hang out with your pet at home and we binge tv shows together, take them on walks at any park, or go on a drive. I sometimes will go on walks with my friend and her beagle (who is very docile). I can send you photos/videos of your pet throughout the day :) I live in a larger house in a woody neighborhood with a 6 year old Doberman and 13 year old chihuahua. (Pictured at end of photo gallery) They can each be slightly nervous but definitely not aggressive! There is a fenced in back deck and yard. However, I’m comfortable with just popping in to your home or house sitting if you need! I look forward to meeting you and your pet!
About: I grew up with several different dogs and animals of all kinds. I love any type of critter and in the past I have taken care of senior, young, and special needs animals, and love them all dearly. I just graduated and am looking for some good work over the summer! I currently have a fully open schedule and need to fill up some time I always make sure that any animal I take care of is always safe and sound. I make sure to never let dogs out without a leash, and am always careful to make sure a cat never sneaks out the front door when going in and out. And I always make sure to remember things easily forgotten, such and changing out their water!
About: I adore my cat, Maple! I have made it my #1 priority to give her the best life possible. I would want my girl to have the best care available while I’m away, you should too! I have experience taking care of kittens and adult cats. Both deserve to be played with and loved!
“Absolutely Excellent. She took good care of my cats. I would let her be with my cats and come in my house anytime. I felt safe knowing she was there. She is good people. She is at the top of my list of drop-in cat sitters moving forward. My happy cats are retracting their claws and sending her gentle purrs. I trust her.”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal lover with hands-on care experience for dogs and cats. I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and care needs, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s daily walks and playtime for energetic dogs or caring for cats with different temperaments I’m comfortable working with all kinds of animals. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to treating every pet like family. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away!

I have a genuine passion for caring for animals of all kinds — big or small. I’m committed to providing attentive, dependable care while making sure your pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether it’s long walks and playtime for energetic dogs or cozy cuddle sessions with cats I always go the extra mile to keep pets happy and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I grew up with all different sizes and different breeds of dogs. I also dog sit for family members when asked and love to walk, feed, and bathe the animals. I’m a veterinary technician so taking care of animals is part of my everyday routine. My passion is taking care of all the little fur babies and making sure they are loved. I currently have two chihuahua mix’s and a leopard gecko so we have a daily routine of getting up to go potty, eating breakfast, playing and making sure the babies are set for the day while moms away at work.

About: I will continue your ways of interacting with your dogs. I will tailor my approach to your fur baby.

I use positive reinforcement and a calm energy to manage high-anxiety pets or those who are easily overstimulated, ensuring they feel safe and secure.

Would you like to discuss a custom care plan or schedule a meet-and-greet to see how I interact with your pet? I've been around dogs all my life and will treat your pet like I treat my own. We don't deserve the love they bring and give out unconditionally. I'm retired. I have plenty of time to devote to your pet. Plenty of time to play, walk and snuggle with your fur baby! Our yard is not fenced. We have 10+ acres to take walks. We have 3 dogs who love to play. Our pack is very excepting and inclusive.
About: Hello! My name is Kelley and I have lots of furry children. I have four Siberian Huskies and a Shiba Inu and they make life fun and adventurous! I have experience working with cats and dogs of all sizes and behaviors. I also have experience caring for rabbits as I had my own. Growing up I volunteered at the VCA Adoption center where we took care of the animals looking for homes and spent a few years of my adult life volunteering and running a rescue. I absolutely love animals and treat all exactly as I would want someone to treat my own. 😁 I am available most evenings after 4PM or anytime on Thursdays. I try to be as flexible as I can for last minute bookings to assist in any way I can. My entire front yard is fenced in with 6ft chain link fencing. It has a mini agility course as a fun activity for the dogs. I also have extra crates and can crate if/when needed. If I am coming to your home I will treat it and your pets with love and respect.

Animals MUST be 100% housebroken Unfortunately due to working from home I am unable to watch doggos in your home, I sincerely apologize.
“I was a bit nervous about using a sitter service for the first time. But after just one day, seeing the pure joy on Shelby's face when I picked her up made it all worth it! She was so tired when we got home, which was evidence of how much fun she had. Lori is wonderful; she keeps me updated with sweet texts, pictures, and videos throughout the day! I will definitely be using Rover AND Lori again!!”
About: As a military spouse I have helped care for our dogs and many of our neighbors dogs as well. From large to small, I love dogs of all kinds. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs, and our own dog loves the company of other dogs. I am a mom and am in nursing school, but pet care is the highlight of my day. My schedule is open during weekends during the school semester, and outside of that I'm fulltime at home. I have a fenced in yard and a dog and cat friendly home. I also have children at home, but they are 10 and up. I prefer dogs crated at night, but during the day they are allowed to roam inside or out in the fenced backyard and will be well taken care of with lots of friendly petting in my home.

About: I connect with animals of all kinds! I've had several dogs & cats, rabbits, pigs, turkeys, snakes, chickens, lizards, and a chinchilla. My love for animals is limitless & my goal is to improve the life of every animal I can reach. I am currently taking courses online to sharpen my skills pertaining to grooming, learning different breeds, training, diet & health. I have acquired many different brushes, supplements, flea combs, scissors and other supplies to keep your pet clean & tidy. I keep lots of treats in my kit including cat treats, cat nip, dog treats, calming pheromone spray & highly digestible bones. I enjoy cooking for pets when I can, making it feel more like going to Grandma's house instead of day care 😉 I am very attentive to moods and behaviors, while also going above and beyond to make sure they feel safe. I have treated sick animals, given medications, assisted in giving injections, and followed food regimens. I've been bitten by several different kinds of animals, so I know how to deal with the not-so-fun parts. I have plenty of energy to walk and play, toys, and my own reliable transportation. I've done extensive research on behaviors and relationships of pets and I'm always learning. I would be happy to write daily reports and/or take pictures, whatever makes you feel at ease. Outside of caring for my own animals, I'm not very busy, so if you need a last minute service, I will likely be available. I can transport animals in my car and also have a female German Shepherd who is fixed and is sweet as can be, if your pup would like a play mate! I'm always looking for new spots to walk & hike, making sure your bestie doesn't get bored ☺️ I strive to work with pet parents to provide high standard, seamless care for every animal & your peace of mind. There is nothing I won't do to ensure the safety & happiness of your pet. Frivolous is not in my vocabulary 🫡 I take care of my animals daily, but have plenty of free time for yours! Morning, afternoon or evening, I'm available for your pet care needs. My pets are well taken care of and honestly a little spoiled 🤭. We have different foods for different cat needs, we don't use cheap food brands in our household. Our dog is walked at least 5 times a week, sometimes more. Each animals gets individual attention and plenty of pets. I make my own treats to give my dog her medicine and also try other pet recipes from time to time. All animals are vaccinated, de-wormed, and get vet check-ins annually.

About: I have never been without a pet or multiple pets, mostly cats and dogs. I believe pets are family members. I have cared for pets from age birth to 18 years old since my childhood. Currently, I have one dog and one granddog. I work from both home and substitute teach. I am able to care for pets in my home or yours. I also have the freedom to come and go as needed for pet walking and/or potty breaks most days. I live in a safe neighborhood with a decent sized yard. I never let Pets go out without being on a leash or tie out. I have a 3 year old mini golden doodle that love other animals.
About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal lover with hands-on care experience for dogs and cats. I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and care needs, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s daily walks and playtime for energetic dogs or caring for cats with different temperaments I’m comfortable working with all kinds of animals. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to treating every pet like family. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away! I have open availability because I work from home! I can help during the day while you are at work, in the morning or evenings, or even on weekends and holidays! I have a genuine passion for caring for animals of all kinds — big or small. I’m committed to providing attentive, dependable care while making sure your pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether it’s long walks and playtime for energetic dogs or cozy cuddle sessions with cats I always go the extra mile to keep pets happy and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I’d love to help with any extra needs as long as I’m told about it. I love to clean, take care of special needs animals, and do yoga. I would love to help in any way I can and I’m proud to be an option to take care of your fur baby! I’m currently unemployed so I will have lots of time to help your animals and take care of them! Im available Monday-Friday and also weekends if I’m needed by anyone. I have a fenced backyard and a dog door. I feed my dogs twice a day, morning and night, and they come and go outdoors as they please. I love to cuddle with animals and let them sit on the bed or give them a comfy place to sleep. If the dog needs to be crated, I can also arrange that. If there is any special services, just text my profile and let me know!

About: I'm currently a stay at home mom of an 8 year old girl. We have a dog of our own right now that is a Corgi/shepard mix named Harley. I've always had dogs and cats my entire life and love taking care of animals and going on walks with them. I am originally from NJ and just moved to Tn in April. I worked at an animal shelter in NJ where I took care of the dogs and some newborn kittens. I've don't have much experience with dogs with disabilities but that won't stop me from wanting to work with them. My dog Harley is a very friendly dog and loves to play so if your dog is friendly she'd love to meet them too!
About: I am a vet assistant and have a lot of experience with difficult animals. I can make your pet feel safe and loved. I have a lot of time and am willing to help as much as possible. I have experience with shelter dogs, senior dogs, puppies and cats. I have my own pets and I will play with them, pet them, give them meds and clean up after them. Your pet is in good hands with me! It fits into my daily routine and weekly routine because I can be flexible in order to take care of your pets, I can go two times a day or stay with your pet if you need me. At my clients house your pet will never be put into harms way, I will play with your pet, love on them if they allow it and clean up after them. Your pet will be treated like they are my own pet and they will be treated as best as I possibly can.
About: I am admittedly that person who goes “Hi! Who are you?!” in a high-pitched voice to every animal I pass. If you followed me on Instagram, you’d realize how obsessed I am with other people’s pets and am usually introducing myself (with permission of course). I’ve been around animals since birth (I was basically raised in a zoo). We had multiple dogs, cats, rats, chickens, snakes, bunnies, and birds. Through college and my mid-twenties I lived with my roommate who had 3 dogs and 3 cats and I would help care for them. For the past four years I have been the designated pet sitter for a friend’s Bernese Mountain puppy, three schnauzers, a senior beagle, and my neighbor’s lab/pit mix, Guinea pig, cat and turtle! I work completely from home and have an extremely flexible schedule. If I don’t have meetings during the day, I’m available to watch or walk your pet during work hours! I am down to just hang out with your pet at home and we binge tv shows together, take them on walks at any park, or go on a drive. I sometimes will go on walks with my friend and her beagle (who is very docile). I can send you photos/videos of your pet throughout the day :) I live in a larger house in a woody neighborhood with a 6 year old Doberman and 13 year old chihuahua. (Pictured at end of photo gallery) They can each be slightly nervous but definitely not aggressive! There is a fenced in back deck and yard. However, I’m comfortable with just popping in to your home or house sitting if you need! I look forward to meeting you and your pet!
About: I grew up with several different dogs and animals of all kinds. I love any type of critter and in the past I have taken care of senior, young, and special needs animals, and love them all dearly. I just graduated and am looking for some good work over the summer! I currently have a fully open schedule and need to fill up some time I always make sure that any animal I take care of is always safe and sound. I make sure to never let dogs out without a leash, and am always careful to make sure a cat never sneaks out the front door when going in and out. And I always make sure to remember things easily forgotten, such and changing out their water!
“So Happy to have found Stephanie on Rover for Sailor Girl's walks! Stephanie is dependable, trustworthy, very knowledgeable in caring for dogs. She and Sailor hit it off from the first moment they met. Takes away my worries about Sailor when I am away at work, knowing Sailor is being cared for by Stephanie.”
About: Animals are my absolute passion! I am currently a major in biology and I have 3 years combined working with animals from dog boarding facilities and veterinary clinics. In my free time I have been pet sitting for years as well! Both dogs and cats are in good hands! I work part time with a flexible schedule so it is easy for me to make time to accommodate! It is preferred that there is a notice, so I can make changes to my schedule as needed In my clients home I do exactly what is instructed to me and respect the boundaries that are set by the client. And of course, leave the animals happy and healthy.
“Kristy was fantastic with my two mutts when I had to leave for a three-day work trip. They had a lot of separation anxiety but she managed them perfectly and sent lots of wonderful pictures of both the dogs as well as my cats that came and went while she was here. I am so happy to have her now established as a resource for future pet sitting!”

“Ken was a fantastic parent to our Ava while we were visiting Bristol for a bit. He let us come on and get our dog acquainted with the surroundings and kept us up to date with pictures throughout the stay. He genuinely seems to care for the animals he watches and treats them as guests in his home. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda did a wonderful job! Very friendly. Took great care of our two dogs. And provided an update every day we were gone, sometimes including photos. Will definitely use her again.”
“Can’t recommend Hannah enough! She has been SO great to work with, has the best yard for playing, sent lots of pictures/updates, and our dog loves the whole family! We’re so happy to have found her, and are looking forward to more stays in the future!”
“I can’t say enough about how great Lilly is. She was so accommodating. We set up a meet and greet(since this was our first experience) that went very well, then during the entire time we were gone she communicated daily, sending video and pictures, which made us feel so much better since this was our first time having any type of dog sitting Ever! Yes! I am a nervous dog mom but Lilly made my first experience so much easier. We just love her! And highly recommend her. ❤️”
“Do you want your pets to feel so at home and comfortable that they are upset when they leave? Mark's house is the place to be! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark helped us on short notice and was able to provide us peace and reassurance that our babies were cared for! Mark kept our male and female German Shepherds, and they had an absolute blast. Mark sent us multiple photos and videos and kept us very up-to-date on what they were doing throughout their visit. He asked questions about their personalities and needs that showcased his care and attention to detail. With his knowledge and experience with German Shepherds, it really shined in the care he provided them! I would definitely recommend Mark, and especially recommend Mark to people with German Shepherds or working line dogs! We and our babies would love to use Mark again!”
“Carly is awesome! Once again she has taken such good care of my fur baby! I never worry about my little girl when Carly watches her. I know she’ll get lots of love and cuddles! I highly recommend Carly!”
“We were heartbroken when our normal sitter we found on here moved away! We tried a few others on here and none loved them like Jessica did… until now! I felt completely at ease as soon as we walked in and Lucy made herself right at home. Alexa has kept me updated the whole time and loved her like she was her own. She has become our new favorite dog person!”
