“She is great with my fur baby Athena. Her entire family is super nice and do a wonderful job ensuring my dog has a great time. Thank you to Mariah and her entire family!”

“Jenn & Derek are good sitters and great people.They were able to watch my 2 cats when a family emergency came up within 2 days notice.My cats had their own room and were well cared for.Communication was great .They provided daily updates and tons of photos.I can not thank them enough for their kindness and great service.I would highly recommend them!”

“Erica was a dream come true. Her and her family took in our three golden retrievers and treated them like they were her own. She communicated often, sent pictures of the dogs and asked very good questions to help them remain comfortable in her care. I honestly won the lotto in choosing her for our dog care when traveling. We had total peace of mind while we were away and it was 100% due to the loving care and true investment Erica and her loving made to our three dogs. Erica is our go to from now on!”

“You will find yourself very fortunate if you are able to book Drew for pet sitting. Her experience and knowledge of pet behavior really helped set my mind at ease. I just moved to the area from Colorado and I have a senior dog that has been my companion and has gone everywhere with me for the last 10 years. She is an indoor dog used to be pampered. This is the first time I was unable to take her on a road trip with me. You can imagine my stress, apprehension and uncertainty to leave her with someone I had just met. During my meet and greet session with Drew I had a new sense of reassurance. She listened to me validated me and followed all my instructions. She communicated with me several times a day including photos & videos. Drew was flexible with me during my uncertain schedule. My dog was taken care of very well. Drew was able to adjust to any issues that came up quickly and appropriately. She was also competent & confident administering medication’s as needed for my dog. I would highly recommend Drew for your pet sitting needs. I will definitely use her again in the future.”


“Melanie and James were fantastic with Jax! Jax made himself at home soon after my boyfriend and I left. Melanie and James are very personable people. We will definitely book with them again if/when the need arises.”

About: I have been a dog groomer for over 4 years and take care of dogs of every kind, every single day, along with having 5 dogs of my own. I have also owned cats my entire childhood and into my adult years. I take care of my pets and others pets all day, every day, so it is just part of my every day life that will never be forgotten. I am well versed on being able to read dog’s body language and emotions, making it so I am able to tailor to every dogs needs individually.
“Couldn’t have ask for anybody better to take care of our pup I love the way she sends the pictures. Let me know how Piper was doing. The whole time took very good care of her. Recommend her for sure for anyone looking for a sitter piper absolutely love the whole family 😁”

“Exceptional care and compassion. Personalized to meet the needs of any dog activity level or personality. I will definitely be using betsy's services in the future. She is an excellent resource for our community!”

“Christina took great care of our Stevo and checked in daily with photos and comments to let us know how he was doing. He seemed happy and relaxed (and has been known to be slightly anxious, so that was great to see). In addition, Christina raved about our pup's behavior and how much she was bonding with him. We will definitely reach out to Christina again when we need boarding or daycare for Stevo.”


About: As a kitten foster and multi-pet household caregiver, I’m used to caring for animals with different needs, energy levels, and personalities. Whether it’s playful kittens, shy cats, or dogs that need structure and attention, I adjust my care to what each pet needs. I’m also comfortable administering medications and paying close attention to behavior and health. I take the time to really understand each animal and respond to what they need—whether that’s extra patience, playtime, routine, or a quieter approach. I take pride in being dependable and communicative. You’ll get consistent updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I offer: • Drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays • Care for multiple pets at once • Medication administration • Extra patience for shy or young animals • Close attention to routines and behavior I treat every pet like my own and focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible :) Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work remotely. As long as I have my laptop, I’m able to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I can care for your pet in my home or yours—whatever makes them most comfortable. If they prefer staying in their own space, I’m happy to bring my work with me and keep their routine consistent. This flexibility means your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches. They’ll have companionship, supervision, and a calm presence—whether that’s relaxing on my lap while I work or resting nearby. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a secure, calm environment with close supervision. At my home, pets have access to a large backyard that backs up to a farm and a quiet cul-de-sac street, giving plenty of space to explore safely. While my yard isn’t fenced, I take extra precautions to ensure pets remain secure at all times. I have a small Morkie who enjoys gentle play, and kittens in my care are always excited to meet new friends. Interacting with other animals not only enriches their social experience but also helps kittens become more confident and adoptable. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your routines closely, provide attentive supervision, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and confident in their familiar surroundings.
About: I’ve spent 25+ years caring for all kinds of pets—dogs, cats, and even reptiles. Living on 17 acres gives plenty of space for safe walks, playtime, and exploring. Whether your pup loves fetch, your cat just wants cuddles, or your reptile needs special attention, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. I work from home so I’m usually always around! With 3 kids here everyone pitches in so your pet will always have someone around to care for them! 17 acres for your pets to explore if they like being outdoors. A comfy home indoors for the less adventurous ones! Our house is clean and safe and welcoming to all sort of animals.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life growing up on a farm and helped raise champion dalmatians! I would love to care for your pets! I am a stay at home mom! I am available anytime you need me! I would be thrilled to take care of your furry friends! I live near a park and go on regular walks that would keep your pet entertained! I am always home so they would never be alone!

“Cindy will love on your pup for duration of their stay. She walked our dog regularly, took photos of her chilling out, and dropped us updates now and then. She's awesome with dogs, uses harnesses for walks for their comfort, gives them occasional treats and a comfy spot to bed down. We love her!”

“Hannah is a wonderful pet sitter. She and her sweet family took good care of my Dolly doggy. She came home tired, but happy. She will be my first choice for Dolly next time I need her looked after and loved.”

About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about animals. I enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet like my own and always try to give them the attention and care they deserve. Additionally, I have a prosthetic leg, which has made me more adaptable, patient, and attentive in everything I do. It’s taught me how to approach situations with care and awareness qualities that carry over into how I care for animals every day. I’m a Tennessee Tech student, and since I don’t have classes in the afternoons, I have a lot of availability to care for pets. I’m dependable, patient, and I like making sure pets stay active, comfortable, and on their normal routine while their owner is away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, fresh water, walks or bathroom breaks, and time to play. I also spend time with them so they feel comfortable and not alone while their owner is away.
“Having to organize last minute sitter for Chloe, I was referred to Rover and Laree was the sitter we selected. Being away on business travel, I had little time to connect with Chloe, Laree was kind and above service by sending me a picture each day, this gave me a peace of mind. Thank you ❤️. Kau”

“Drew was a great dog sitter. I contacted her kind of last minute and she was able to accommodate my pup with no issues. She communicated well and sent pictures and videos of my boy. Vernon seemed to really enjoy his time with her and her dogs. I would definitely recommend Drew to others.”

About: I have over 20 years of pet care experience by providing care in my own home, and in clients homes for medium and large dogs as well as cats. I also have 4 years of fostering experience with rescue dogs, including pregnant moms and birthing puppies. With all this experience I have provided medications, given laser therapies (with clients equipment), bottle and syringe fed young pups. I have walked dogs on leash and on slip leads. My mission is to make cats and dogs in my care feel safe, comfortable and loved while their pawrents are gone. We are a couple based sitting service, which allows for your pet to have several outdoor potty and play sessions, and plenty of snuggle time indoors as well. I am open to providing care for 4 dogs in my home in addition to my pack, and am able to take multiple cats (they have their own room in my home so that they are not stressed by the dogs and vice versa). In my home dogs would have access to outside time as needed for the majority of the day. I will follow all expectations for your dog in your home. In our home dogs are allowed on the furniture as we allow our own on the furniture. I believe in positive reinforcement by providing love, treats and redirection. I will not and am not comfortable using shock collars, prong collars or choke collars.
About: I have always taken care of animals for people and I have used rover myself for my dogs. I love cats and dogs, and want to provide good quality care.

I have a flexible schedule and willing to take care of whatever you need. I have a huge yard to walk dogs, and they’ll get plenty of attention and play time. I also have two friendly dogs who love playing with other dogs. If I am in your home I’ll respect whatever rules and schedule you like to keep for your pets.
“5 stars is not enough!! As a nurse I work a varying schedule with early drop offs and later pick ups and Bethany and her family are SO accommodating and helpful. Daisy loves being at her house and always comes home happy and worn out! Not only is Bethany great with the dogs but she is also a fountain of useful information and tips and tricks. I truly don’t know what daisy and I would do without her, she is a life saver!!”

“Regina is wonderful watching our Schatzi. When Schatzi arrived she was excited to be there. She was a little bit shy because she heard another dog, but I know she settled in quickly. When we picked her up, she was happy but was tired out from all her excitement of the day and needed a nap :)”

About: I’ve always taken care of animals, growing up with cats and dogs in our house was such a blessing and now I want to share my love for all pets with others! I am lucky enough to work full time from home which leaves me with plenty of extra time to take care of your four legged baby. Walks, park play time, and even light training would be part of the normal routine when they stay will me! I have a fenced in dog park and small walking trail at my apartment complex as well as access to several public parks and local waking trails nearby. My place is always clean and safe for even the most nosey of pets!
“Christina did an amazing job watching Newman for us while we went to play golf. I would not hesitate to call her again. Newman was able to spend the day resting comfortably in her lovely home instead of being left alone at home. She took great care of our boy!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals all of my life, including several dogs of my own. I have had puppies all the way up to my dog mack who is 16 and lives with my parents. With the help of my girlfriend who is on the track team at Tennessee Tech University your pet is sure to have a fun time and stay safe. I currently am a full time student and don’t have a job right now so I am home all day on the weekends, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The only days i have class are 12:00 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have plenty of time to spend with your pet and show them the love they deserve. I have a big apartment and have a fenced yard for your pets to run around in and play and also an unfenced yard for walks and runs. I also live close to a dog park to let your dog socialize if that is desired.
“Tubby had an awesome time at Mary’s! He’s a super friendly, high-energy dog so having a few other dogs around to play with worked really well for him - and for us, since he was super tired when we got home! It was our first time to use Rover and we found Mary to be really professional and pleasant to talk to. She is quick to respond to inquiries and is very detailed and honest in her responses. I also appreciate how Mary and Tom did the meet-and-greet, where they made sure the dogs are not around when Tubby first came into their home. They let him do a little exploring, then let him out into the yard, where they started introducing him to the other dogs one by one. They were also very patient in answering my questions. Overall we had a great experience leaving Tubby for daycare at Mary’s and looking forward to booking them again. :)”

“Our puppy kip seemed to have a great time with Veronica and thankfully came home tired. It was easy to coordinate with Veronica and she took into account all the requests we had.”

“Chloe watched my pup for 4 days, everyday i got updates, pictures/videos. She even offered to clip her nails and dressed her up in a cute sweater. I felt comfortable leaving her in the environment and didn’t feel like she was not taken care of or ignored. I will definitely use her again next time we go on a trip. If you’re looking for someone to spend time with your pup and make them feel at home Chloe is your girl!!!”

“Mary and Richard are always so great with my dog. Usually, she’s very tentative about going to stay with people, even on return visits. But this time when I took her, she was delighted to go and was clearly very comfortable in their home. I trust them with my pet and I am very appreciative of the love and care they give to her.”

I always ask for a meet and greet before booking any bookings, except for same day bookings, and this would be a time where you let me know if you have any cost constraints.

Let us help you by taking a little work and worry off your shoulders! I have 10+ acres ready for some exploring! I also have some outdoor toys to entertain the playful babies.

“Austin was a life saver for us and our new adopted pup. Austin is responsive, professional, and really good with our dog. He gives him treats and belly rubs after his walk, uploads pictures, and even offered to work with him on some commands we’ve been working with him on. Highly recommend Austin.”

About: In addition to growing up with dogs, I started pet sitting when I was 16; caring for dogs and cats of various age and sizes. Neighbors and friends quickly trusted me to care and play with their furry friends while they were away. My top priority is gaining the trust of the pet(s) and their parents so it’s a comfortable and fun experience for everyone! I work remote full time, so my schedule is somewhat flexible however I would best be able to check in prior to 8AM, around lunch time, or after 5 PM on weekdays. My weekend hours are completely flexible. I will follow the instructions provided and cater to any needs of the pet as requested, while respecting boundaries and the comfort level of both parties.
“Storm was absolutely amazing! She came over before our first scheduled walk to meet the pup and I. Her communication was awesome, and I felt confident leaving my baby in her care. I already have her booked to come again.”

About: I have worked with dogs for around 2 years now, from working with rescue dogs, having my own, and doing doggy daycare in the Nashville area I am a college student at TTU, My classes end early afternoon so I have my whole afternoons free, I do not have a job but I'm currently looking for a part-time serving job. I will not be able to care for dogs in my home because I am living in a college dorm at TTU but in I am able to stay overnight with pets in you're home
About: I’ve grown up around multiple animals, having dogs and cats and other exotic animals. I also used to watch neighbor’s pets if they needed me to. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I am a college student who is always on the move and looking for new adventures to go on! I do not offer pet sitting in my own home due to living in an apartment with roommates, but depending on your living situation I always make it fun for the animal wether that’s playing outside or going on a walk.
About: Ive taken care of many animals across the board including puppies, dogs, senior dogs, chicks/chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, and cats. I have experience clipping and bathing dogs as well. Ive taken a couple animal science classes as well to further my animal knowledge. I love all animals and understand needs vary and I don't mind doing the “gross” stuff. Id take care any of my clients animals just as my own. Ive also had very successful attempts in training puppies! When I babysat for a family I had to also manage 4 dogs with cleaning, feeding, and potty breaks. I now take care of my own dog and work around my college schedule. This includes walks, feeding, and a potty break before, in-between, and after classes. I also have a family cat that I tend to and have given shots to. I have tons of leashes and portable bowls for anywhere your fur baby would need. I also have leash seat belt buckles. I can care for your animals anytime of night as well.
About: I have had a love for animals ever since I can remember! Throughout high school I worked for a well known vet clinic learning the ins and outs. After high school I began working in pet boarding facilities where I learned how to administer medicine to dogs and cats, stick to multiple feeding schedules, learn about multiple pet behaviors and much more. Pets bring me so much happiness in this world and I love nothing more than to be around them. I am currently self employed and a part time online college student. This allows me to have an open schedule and plenty of free time to love on your fur babies! ***IMPORTANT*** HOUSE SITTING: I do not stay in homes overnight. House sitting consists of multiple trips to your home. Typically every 4 hours with around an hour to an hour and a half of play time, cuddles and walks within the drop in visits. I do not like to stay gone for too long however the need for every 4 hours is due to the needs of my other business and fur baby. We can always discuss needs further to make sure I can meet your expectations. I am still pretty flexible! If your pet requires a full day of consistent care there will be an additional charge. The first two hours of the stay would be covered under my base rate and thereafter would be an additional charge which can be discussed. This can be discussed after knowing the needs and what your expectations would be. I try to be as accommodating as possible. :) House sitting visits will include plenty of attention, walks, play time, feedings, watering plants if needed, bringing in mail and other small things similar. DROP IN VISITS: This is typically the need for just one visit a day such as if you're gone from home for a long work day or if you have cats that just need checked on once a day. If multiple visits are needed, it may be best to choose the house sitting option. A drop in visit will include walks, play time, treats and feedings if needed I treat everybody's pet as if they were my own. I will always create a clean and safe space for them. I believe that for most of us, our fur babies are more like our children. So providing the best possible care is important for me.
About: Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have hands-on experience providing dependable, compassionate care for dogs, cats, and exotics of all ages, temperaments, and needs—including seniors and pets that require extra patience, routine, or medication support. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their personalities, preferences, and comfort cues so they feel safe and relaxed in my care. I’ve provided in-home pet sitting, feeding, walking, playtime, potty clean-up, and companionship, along with light home care and housekeeping while pet parents are away. I’m attentive to details, respectful of routines, and proactive about communication—because I know how important peace of mind is when you’re trusting someone with a beloved pet. Above all, I truly love animals. I’m calm, nurturing, and observant, which helps pets warm up quickly and feel at ease. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or quiet and cautious, I meet them where they are and care for them as if they were my own. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. 🐶🐱💙 Since I don’t work a traditional 8–5 schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine, allowing me to be flexible and attentive to pets’ needs. I plan my schedule around pet visits to ensure consistency, reliability, and unrushed care. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, depending on your pet’s needs and established routine. I value structure and communication, so I arrive on time, follow instructions carefully, and keep pet parents updated with photos and notes. Whether your pet needs regular check-ins, companionship while you’re away, or extra attention during certain times of day, I’m intentional about making pet care a priority—not an afterthought. My goal is to provide dependable, stress-free care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s normal routine. 🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I care for pets in their own home whenever possible, because familiar environments help reduce stress and keep pets feeling secure. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and household preferences. I’m attentive, observant, and respectful of both pets and property. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, food and water areas are clean, and litter boxes or outdoor spaces are properly maintained. I monitor pets for changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and communicate promptly if anything seems out of the ordinary. I practice calm, gentle handling and never force interactions—especially with shy, anxious, or senior pets. Trust is built through patience and consistency. I also provide updates with photos and notes so pet parents feel confident and connected while they’re away. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or during short visits, my goal is to create a safe, peaceful environment where your pet feels comfortable, respected, and well cared for. 🐾💙

“Erica was a dream come true. Her and her family took in our three golden retrievers and treated them like they were her own. She communicated often, sent pictures of the dogs and asked very good questions to help them remain comfortable in her care. I honestly won the lotto in choosing her for our dog care when traveling. We had total peace of mind while we were away and it was 100% due to the loving care and true investment Erica and her loving made to our three dogs. Erica is our go to from now on!”

“You will find yourself very fortunate if you are able to book Drew for pet sitting. Her experience and knowledge of pet behavior really helped set my mind at ease. I just moved to the area from Colorado and I have a senior dog that has been my companion and has gone everywhere with me for the last 10 years. She is an indoor dog used to be pampered. This is the first time I was unable to take her on a road trip with me. You can imagine my stress, apprehension and uncertainty to leave her with someone I had just met. During my meet and greet session with Drew I had a new sense of reassurance. She listened to me validated me and followed all my instructions. She communicated with me several times a day including photos & videos. Drew was flexible with me during my uncertain schedule. My dog was taken care of very well. Drew was able to adjust to any issues that came up quickly and appropriately. She was also competent & confident administering medication’s as needed for my dog. I would highly recommend Drew for your pet sitting needs. I will definitely use her again in the future.”


“Melanie and James were fantastic with Jax! Jax made himself at home soon after my boyfriend and I left. Melanie and James are very personable people. We will definitely book with them again if/when the need arises.”

“Couldn’t have ask for anybody better to take care of our pup I love the way she sends the pictures. Let me know how Piper was doing. The whole time took very good care of her. Recommend her for sure for anyone looking for a sitter piper absolutely love the whole family 😁”

“Christina took great care of our Stevo and checked in daily with photos and comments to let us know how he was doing. He seemed happy and relaxed (and has been known to be slightly anxious, so that was great to see). In addition, Christina raved about our pup's behavior and how much she was bonding with him. We will definitely reach out to Christina again when we need boarding or daycare for Stevo.”

“Cindy will love on your pup for duration of their stay. She walked our dog regularly, took photos of her chilling out, and dropped us updates now and then. She's awesome with dogs, uses harnesses for walks for their comfort, gives them occasional treats and a comfy spot to bed down. We love her!”

“Hannah is a wonderful pet sitter. She and her sweet family took good care of my Dolly doggy. She came home tired, but happy. She will be my first choice for Dolly next time I need her looked after and loved.”

About: What sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about animals. I enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet like my own and always try to give them the attention and care they deserve. Additionally, I have a prosthetic leg, which has made me more adaptable, patient, and attentive in everything I do. It’s taught me how to approach situations with care and awareness qualities that carry over into how I care for animals every day. I’m a Tennessee Tech student, and since I don’t have classes in the afternoons, I have a lot of availability to care for pets. I’m dependable, patient, and I like making sure pets stay active, comfortable, and on their normal routine while their owner is away. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, fresh water, walks or bathroom breaks, and time to play. I also spend time with them so they feel comfortable and not alone while their owner is away.
