“Julie and Josiah were wonderful! Their dog Nova is super friendly and played so well with our golden. They kept us informed on how things were going, sent pictures and made the overall experience seamless. We look forward to booking with them again!!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, and extended stays in my home. Friends, family, and pet owners have trusted me to provide attentive and reliable care, whether that means feeding, exercising, grooming, or simply keeping their dogs company throughout the day. I love staying active and enjoy taking dogs on long walks around my neighborhood, Centennial Park, and the Vanderbilt area. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship for your dog. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. Long walks are one of my favorite activities, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I live in an apartment with access to a dog park within the community and several walkable areas nearby. I’m also close to Centennial Park and the Vanderbilt campus, which are great locations for safe, enjoyable walks. I have experience caring for dogs in my home for extended stays, as well as providing dog walking and pet-sitting services. During visits, I can provide exercise, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention to help your dog feel happy and secure while you're away.
“I must say this was the best dog sitting experience I have had. Austin was wonderful. His home was clean. And my dog is a big dog so there was plenty of yard for my dog to run and get exercise. As well as plenty of space indoors. He sent pictures and kept me updated on how Nova was doing. Very friendly and will definitely be using his services again.”
“Hank had a blast staying with Maddy! The daily update pictures were so thoughtful, especially since it was Hank’s first time staying with them. Will definitely be using Maddy for future stays!”
“John “Tre” was such a sweet sitter for Bijoux. Communicated very well, worked with us when we needed some flexibility and took great care of Bijoux. I would say he went above and beyond what we would have expected. Highly recommend!!”
“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!”
“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!!!! ❤️❤️❤️”
“Katherine watched Hank for a week and she was great! Hank had a good time playing with her dog and another golden she was watching at the same time. He settled in quickly and I got daily photo and text updates. I will definitely use her again!!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we were nervous to leave Buzz for a week but Ritch and his family were wonderful! Buzz immediately loved playing with the kids. Also really appreciated the updates and pictures!”
“Margaret took great care of our pets while on vacation. She was very responsive and provided daily updates. My wife and I would definitely let our pets stay with her again!”
“Tara was a wonderful sitter for our golden retriever. We traveled to the Franklin area with our family and decided last minute to find a sitter for our pup so we could explore the town and not worry about leaving him in the hotel alone. Tara gave him lots of love and snuggles and was great at communicating/ sending photos.”
“Teresa was great with the pups. She kept me updated on their daily vacation and contacted me with any questions! Would definitely book with her again.”
About: 16 years of experience — I’ll keep your lil nugget spoiled, fed, and safe, with calm care, attention, and everything they need while you’re away. I come home on my lunch break, and the neighborhood is great for relaxed, scenic walks. I make sure pets are comfortable, cared for, and have everything they need. The neighborhood is very dog-friendly, with nearby parks and plenty of space for fresh air, sniffing, and happy little breaks. We’ll enjoy our time outside.
“Laura did a great job with our (very energetic) pup! She sent us daily photos and videos to show us that she was having a great time! Laura took her to dog parks and my pup got along fine with hers! Truly an excellent sitter!”
“Allison is wonderful with Ivory. Ivory loved being there with her new buddy Priya. When we picked her up she was excited to see us, but sad to leave. Ivory has made herself some new friends. Almost like the favorite aunt type feeling when you visit family. That one family member that everyone can't help but love.”
“We had a 10/10 Rover experience with Marissa! She was super easy to coordinate with and we could tell that she took the best care of Eddie. He was so sleepy when we brought him home from playing with her pup all weekend! We will definitely be calling her again.”
“Zitian was very pleasant to work with. He took great care of my six puppy while we were on a long road trip and did not have any access to my regular sitters. I’ll definitely use him again the next time I’m in Nashville”

“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.”
“Jordan took care of our 4 cats over the past 10 days for home visits and were very thankful to receive communication and updates each day. We had some nuanced instructions and Kordan was very flexible and handled our needs well. We’ll work with Jordan again in the future!”
“Sabrina was amazing! She did 2 drop in visits a day for my cat and left pictures and a recap of the visit after each one. My cat was greatly taken care of and loved her! She is super personable and was able to watch my cat with short notice. I highly recommend Sabrina!”
“Ellen was so great with our fur babies! Being gone for a long period of time can be nerve racking, but I trusted her with them ! She sent great updates, and they seemed to be comfortable with her right away! Will def book again!”
“Tahreem did an amazing job. She met with me before hand and met Harvey and did an excellent job of loving on him and checking on him while I was away. Thank you, Tahreem! 🥰🥰”
“Stephanie is seriously incredible. This is our second time and she actually helped us with our feral cats that we have trapped while away. Shes a total PRO! We love Stephanie. Dogs, cats… she can do it all!”
“Amy is so fantastic with our old cat - she’s able to give his insulin injections no problem and is so attentive to his extra needs. Appreciate the informative updates and pictures. I trust her completely - she’s our regular!”
“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!”
“Juliet has taken care of my kitties twice now, and has been amazing! She is responsive, communicative, and responsible, and pays great attention to every detail of what I've asked her to do. She sends pictures, updates, and my kitties always look so happy playing with her in the pics. I can't recommend her enough and will continue to book whenever I'm out of town!”
“Piper stepped in for us at last minute when the original sitter we requested with Rover months in advance abruptly cancelled for us a week before our scheduled trip. She did not disappoint. Not only was she extremely kind and excited to take care of Muffin during our meet-and-greet, but we could tell, when we returned from our trip, that Muffin had received lots of love and attention while we were away. Piper was always attentive to our messages and she always made sure to send pictures or videos of our cat after each visit, along with notes on her status. It gave us a huge sense of relief on our trip that Muffin was being well taken care of. We cannot thank Piper enough for her services and care of our pet and would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a reliable sitter for their pet, especially with cats.”
“Taylor was amazing. She checked in on our cats while we were away for a few days and they were healthy and happy when we came home. I would highly recommend Taylor for your pet care needs and would not hesitate to ask her to help us out in the future when needed. Thank you Taylor for doing such an amazing job!”
“Kendra was amazing with my shy boy, Felix. She was patient and showed up every day on time and stayed for the perfect amount of time. Will be reaching out to Kendra in the future!”
“Excellent communication from my initial inquiry up until the last visit. Thrilled to have found my new go-to sitter. Mallory went above and beyond for my cats and gave me such peace of mind being away. Great attention to detail and you can tell she really cares and takes pride in the care she provides. I got photos and detailed notes - I could tell she really got to know the boys by the way she wrote about them. Highly recommend. Will absolutely book again.”
“Jessica was terrific. Communicative, friendly, and did everything we asked and our (sometimes troublesome) cat did not have any issues with her. 10/10 would hire again!”

“Robin was amazing! What a blessing that we had the chance to find her. She took great care of our 2 small dogs and made them feel welcome! She was extremely attentive in taking care of them and their needs. Thank you Robin!!”
“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!
About: I am very diligent in safeguarding the pets in my care. I am kind and affectionate and I will respect your rules. I have been a pet owner for over 25 years. I have also been involved in caring for and rescuing many pets over the years. This has been my great joy. My home is pet friendly and pet safe. I understand how it feels to leave your beloved pets and I know how much it means to know that your sweet ones are feeling happy and well loved while you are away. I enjoy sending my clients pics of their pets during their stay. Providing secure accommodations and a fun place to stay is paramount. This is my absolute purpose, goal, and pleasure. Pet sitting is my only job. I am home all day. With your approval, your dogs will be free to enjoy inside or outside. I have a secure privacy fence and a pet door for easy access. Of course, if you prefer a more regimented potty break schedule and time outside, I am happy to oblige. I allow dogs to make themselves at home. Sitting on furniture is a-okay. (as long as you approve.) I will certainly respect your rules. I like our dog visitors to be comfortable, feeling safe and welcome. I have a ChiWeenie; who sleeps A LOT and keeps to herself mostly; however, she is friendly. I also have a very friendly and playful Jack Russell/Beagle mix who enjoys company. My yard is secure and fun. We also have patio furniture they can lounge on. I keep our upstairs access gated. Of course, I will follow your instruction in regard to their sleeping. I am happy to do a “meet and greet” prior to your scheduling.
About: Hi everyone, I’m Bre! I tried Rover briefly back in 2022 before becoming a full-time foster dog mom. I’m excited to give it another try! I work a normal Monday-Friday office job but I work next door to my apartment community! So I can walk over to take dogs on walks multiple times a day. My fiancé works from home so he will be there all day as well. Pets are my favorite roommates! I live in a beautiful apartment community that’s full of dogs. I do have permission to dog sit from management! Dogs are welcome to free roam my apartment
“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.”
“Khyati was wonderful to deal with. Very flexible with drop off and pickup times. Rodeo thoroughly enjoyed speaking time with her and her 2 dogs :) Will definitely be using Khyati again.”

About: We consistently watch friends’ dogs and have grown up with dogs our whole life. Our friends and neighbors rely on us to take care of their loving pets. We have plenty of time to love on your pup since we are on summer break! We are currently on summer break, so we have plenty of time to take care of your dog and provide them with loving care! This is our only summer job, so all attention can go to your dog! We live in a gated community with a large dog park. We have access to other dogs that your pup can play with, and our apartment also has a pet washing station where we can bathe your dog! We also have space for your dog to roam in our home, and have a toy basket for them to choose toys to play with. We also have blankets they can lay on when sitting on the couch.
“Paris’ friendly and welcoming demeanor made me feel very comfortable for my first Rover experience. Mooney ran right up to him at first sight, and it was clear upon pickup that Mooney had a good day.”
About: I'm an avid walker who genuinely lives for time with animals — so this isn't just a side gig, it's basically what I do anyway! So adding your pup to my route is genuinely a highlight of my day. I've spent the past year as the unofficial pet caretaker for a growing roster of dog and cat nieces and nephews — walks, check-ins, cuddles, the works. I don't have my own dogs right now (long story, involves a breakup), which honestly just means yours gets my whole heart. I take this seriously, I'm reliable, and I will send you the best photos. I work a hybrid schedule, which means real flexibility. Lunch walks are totally doable with a little advance notice, and mornings and evenings are wide open for both short strolls and longer adventures. 🌿👒 Germantown local, flexible on pickup, and yes — I talk to animals 🔮 (not in a werid way I promise!). I truly believe they understand us, and a little conversation goes a long way for mental stimulation. Physical needs are a given. The extra love is just who I am.🫶🏽
About: Hi! I'm Allison, and as a devoted dog mom myself, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pup with someone new. My goal is to make both you and your dog feel as comfortable as possible by providing a calm, safe, and loving home while you're away. I recently moved back to Nashville after spending seven years in Denver. Before that, I cared for dogs through Rover here in Nashville and was fortunate to build relationships with many wonderful repeat clients. I'm so excited to have the time and space in my schedule to welcome dogs into my home again! I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. My dog, Birdie, is an 8.5 lb sweetheart who loves making new friends but is just as happy spending the afternoon snoozing beside me. Because we live in an apartment and enjoy a quieter lifestyle, I exclusively board small dogs (open to medium if we sound like a good fit!) who thrive in a calm environment. Every dog is different, and I want to keep their routine as consistent as possible. Whether they have a favorite toy, specific feeding schedule, medications, or little quirks that help them feel at home, I'd love to hear all about them. Birdie takes a nightly pill, so I'm comfortable administering oral medications and am happy to keep up with your dog's medication schedule while they're in my care. Birdie is crated when I’m not home, but if your dog prefers to free roam that is totally okay. I'll treat your pup with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. If you're looking for a peaceful home where your dog will be cared for like family, I'd love to meet you and your pup! Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine! I work from home, so I'm able to provide plenty of companionship, potty breaks, and individualized attention throughout the day. My dog, Birdie, and I enjoy a calm lifestyle with walks when the weather is nice, lots of downtime, and plenty of cuddles. I'll do my best to keep your dog's routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and at home during their stay. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only board small dogs (medium dogs are welcome if we seem like a good fit!) so everyone has plenty of space to relax, and because I work from home, they'll be supervised and have lots of companionship throughout the day. I take time to learn each dog's routine, preferences, and any medical needs so I can make their stay feel as familiar and stress-free as possible. My goal is for your pup to feel like they're staying with family, not just a sitter.
“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!”
“Margaret was wonderful with our baby, Lily. We got photos and a good report on the day. Handling over Lily to Margaret felt natural and i could sense her expertise with animals just by handing off the leash. Very happy.”
“Daria is literally the BEST when it comes to someone watching your pup. I have a brand new puppy (now 3 months old) and work 12 hours shifts. Daria was always willing to be up early to let me drop off Mack on the way into work and grab her on my way back from work. I genuinely felt like Daria loved Mack as her own and always felt as ease when Mack was with her. She sent me plenty of pictures throughout the day and now Mack has a new best friend, Boone. Thank you Daria :)”
About: Hi, my name is Nakayla! 🐾 I've been a dog lover my whole life and have grown up with everything from Shih Tzus to Pit Bulls. I currently have a toy poodle named Milo, and instead of getting a second dog, I joined Rover so I could spend time with more furry friends! Since I work from home full-time, your pup will get lots of love, attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. They'll rarely be left alone and will be treated like one of the family. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! 🐶💕 I work from home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pup plenty of attention throughout the day. They'll almost always have someone with them, aside from the occasional hour or two when I step out for the gym. I live in an apartment, but your pup will enjoy plenty of walks and exercise. I'm also just 6 minutes from a dog park and can take them there with your permission!
“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.”
“Luigi had tons of fun at daycare today, thanks Ashley! Loved seeing all the pictures taken throughout his day and happy to hear he did well on his leash/walks too :)”
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.
“Very easy to work with. Very flexible and responsive. Great location for downtown Nashville activities. My dog seemed to enjoy her doggy daycare! Would recommend and use again if I were in the area.”

“Teresa is an angel! She takes fantastic care of my golden retriever pup, Mavvy, and is incredibly reliable. Very grateful to have her and would highly recommend?l!”
About: I've been a dog lover my entire life and have had four different dogs throughout my life, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, personalities, and life stages. When I was 10 years old, I started my own neighborhood dog walking and plant watering business, which taught me responsibility, reliability, and the importance of caring for other people's pets as if they were my own. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply some extra love and attention, I'll provide dependable, compassionate care and treat them like one of my own. I'll be starting graduate school at Vanderbilt this fall, so pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I'll be available after my classes to provide walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I look forward to making it a regular part of my week while helping busy pet owners ensure their pets receive the care, exercise, and attention they deserve. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine. Whether I'm taking your dog for a walk, stopping by for a drop-in visit, or caring for your pet in your home, I'll follow your instructions closely to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I'll provide plenty of exercise, playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and attention while treating both your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Abigail is such a great caretaker for our dog, Charlotte. It is so great to have someone so reliable and trustworthy and beloved by dogs to care for her when we are away. I can't recommend Abigail enough!”

About: My fiancé, Martha, and I both came from dog families and have had various breeds our whole lives! Despite my best efforts to not be a “cat person” too, they have always gravitated toward me and eventually wore me down so I’m a sucker for a cat purr now too. Plenty of experience dog- and cat-sitting for friends over the years, in addition to the ones we’ve owned. It’s only recently that we don’t currently have our own, so we’d love to love on your fur-babies when you’re not able to! We both work hybrid jobs (some in the office, some at home) with incredible flexibility in our day to day schedules. Recently engaged and no kids (and currently no pets of our own), so we have plenty of free time and are missing our pet snugs! Your pets are welcome in our home as long as they are housebroken. We have a fenced in back yard, albeit somewhat small, and no competing pets at either of our immediate neighbors’ houses. We love walking the neighborhood and try to go for a walk everyday, so this is a great excuse to keep that up while making some new friends with the neighborhood fur-babies!
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.
“Could not have asked for a better first experience using Rover! Lara was incredible, I have nothing but great things to say. She really went above and beyond anything I could have expected. This was the first trip I’ve gone on in a while where I was not concerned about how my dog was doing back home. She would give me constant updates and send me pictures letting me know just how much fun they were having together. I will 100% be letting her watch over my dog in the future. 10/10, highly recommend!!!!”
About: I'm a 10 year old cat mom and a dog auntie! I have taken care of both dogs and cats for years. I am familiar with giving animals, specifically cats, medicine (my cat has had urinary issues throughout the years) and I LOVE when my friends ask me to watch/play/walk their sweet doggies. I am currently working part time so my availability is very flexible. I work Wednesdays and Thursdays and have majority of the days open the remainder of the week. I respect boundaries and any specific notes that you have for your animals. They are a part of the family so when I enter the home I want them to feel safe and loved.
About: Hi, I’m Nicole! I’m a recent graduate of Vanderbilt University and a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up with cats and have always had at least one in the house, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. When I was 12, I rescued my first dog — a senior teacup Chihuahua named Bella — and cared for her for nearly 8 wonderful years. That experience taught me just how important it is to find someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for your pets when you’re away. Throughout high school, I volunteered at my local animal shelter, where I worked with cats and dogs of all ages and temperaments, as well as assisting in the clinic. I also have about 7 years of professional pet and house-sitting experience, primarily caring for cats and medium to large dogs in their own homes. I love taking dogs on walks, making sure they get exercise, fresh air, and plenty of attention while keeping them comfortable in their normal routine. My top priority is making sure your pets feel safe, happy, loved, and stress-free while you’re away — so you can feel stress-free too. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! As a recent graduate, my schedule is open as I career search. I have availability all week when I am in town and look forward to connecting with you to see what will work best for you and your fur baby! As of right now I am not taking any boarding clients. While in your home, your pup or kitty will have eyes on them to make sure they are safe and not getting into trouble!
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.
About: For the past 10 years, I have dedicated myself to pet sitting, providing long walks, boarding, and even some training. Growing up, I was never able to have pets of my own, so pet sitting has given me the joy of welcoming, many animals into my life as a part of my extended family. My reliability, friendliness, and patience, have allowed me to build trusting relationships with both pets and their owners, ensuring that every pet in my care feels safe, loved and wellcared for. I am in the works to enter graduate school, allowing for plenty of time to take care of your pet babies. Caring for them would make my day a bit more brighter Your pets are allowed in my home as my own, lots of cuddles, walks, and love. When at your home I will make sure to follow all task asked, play time, and many belly rubs
About: I have a large range of availability. Although I am a newer at dog sitting/walking professionally, I have been raised around cats and dogs my entire life and assisted in taking care of them.

“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.”
About: After years of loving and training family pets, I began my fostering experience where I placed over 5 dogs to new families! Hoping to continue my love of animals in a new city! I work remotely in Germantown, and I'm flexible to daily midday visits! Whether it is for feeding, a walk, or a quick check-in, I'm happy to help! I am able to host pets for short periods of time. I live an apartment complex, but have access to multiple nearby parks. Overnights possible for right fit.

“Julie and Josiah were wonderful! Their dog Nova is super friendly and played so well with our golden. They kept us informed on how things were going, sent pictures and made the overall experience seamless. We look forward to booking with them again!!”
“I must say this was the best dog sitting experience I have had. Austin was wonderful. His home was clean. And my dog is a big dog so there was plenty of yard for my dog to run and get exercise. As well as plenty of space indoors. He sent pictures and kept me updated on how Nova was doing. Very friendly and will definitely be using his services again.”
“Hank had a blast staying with Maddy! The daily update pictures were so thoughtful, especially since it was Hank’s first time staying with them. Will definitely be using Maddy for future stays!”
“John “Tre” was such a sweet sitter for Bijoux. Communicated very well, worked with us when we needed some flexibility and took great care of Bijoux. I would say he went above and beyond what we would have expected. Highly recommend!!”
“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!”
“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!!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

About: 16 years of experience — I’ll keep your lil nugget spoiled, fed, and safe, with calm care, attention, and everything they need while you’re away. I come home on my lunch break, and the neighborhood is great for relaxed, scenic walks. I make sure pets are comfortable, cared for, and have everything they need. The neighborhood is very dog-friendly, with nearby parks and plenty of space for fresh air, sniffing, and happy little breaks. We’ll enjoy our time outside.
“Allison is wonderful with Ivory. Ivory loved being there with her new buddy Priya. When we picked her up she was excited to see us, but sad to leave. Ivory has made herself some new friends. Almost like the favorite aunt type feeling when you visit family. That one family member that everyone can't help but love.”
“We had a 10/10 Rover experience with Marissa! She was super easy to coordinate with and we could tell that she took the best care of Eddie. He was so sleepy when we brought him home from playing with her pup all weekend! We will definitely be calling her again.”
“Zitian was very pleasant to work with. He took great care of my six puppy while we were on a long road trip and did not have any access to my regular sitters. I’ll definitely use him again the next time I’m in Nashville”
About: -Worked for an Animal Chiropractor for 4 years, I also was hired to pet sit some of my clients fur babies. -Worked doggy day care and was a kennel technician at a pet resort for 2 years - interned at a wolf sanctuary for 1 year -volunteered at a free roam cat shelter for 2 years I work remotely as a customer service representative, so I'm home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule to provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and potty breaks. I'm also an avid traveler, so I don't currently have pets of my own. Rover is the perfect way for me to enjoy the companionship I've been missing while giving your pet lots of love, care, and attention in a safe, comfortable environment. I currently reside in an apartment that boasts a secure, gated courtyard in the complex. Also, there is great walking and parks in my area.
“My pup can be a little anxious around new people but she warmed up to Janey right away. Janey took great care of her and sent updates everyday. Could travel easy knowing she was in good hands!”
