“She went above and beyond. She was so considerate. My cat is anxious , but Robin was patient with her. And, she gave her everything a cat could need. She also gave me some valuable advice, as someone that has years of experience in cat rescue.”
“Ritch was great! Gave updates with pictures threw out the time my pup was with him. They treated her like their own dog. Very good with communicating as well”
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.
“Tara was so great with our puppy. Easy going, sent us pictures of him throughout. She let him snuggle in bed with her! She kept us informed and we would definitely use her again! Thanks Tara”
“Marisa was super nice working with us. We had a snow and ice storm the day before we left. She made arrangements for us so we didn’t miss our trip. Coco did well with her.”
“My dog had such a great time staying with Sarah! She went above and beyond to take care of him and make him feel comfortable. I received updates and pictures. I would highly recommend Sarah. We are so appreciative!”
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
“Natalie was a great choice for our dog. Natalie sent some pictures of our dog as well as kept us updated. She walked her and even took her on a hike. I'll be using Natalie again.”
“Janey is an AMAZING dog-sitter, and I cannot thank her enough for taking such great care of Coco. You can tell she truly enjoys caring for animals and treated Coco like she was her own - even letting her sleep in the bed (which I know Coco loves.) I really appreciate the daily updates. When I picked her up from Janey, Coco seemed so happy and comfortable being with her. Will definitely book with Janey again. Thank you so much!!!”
“Janelle continues to be a safe, calm, caring individual where I can feel comfortable allowing my little one 🐾🐕🦺 to stay when I have to go away for some time. I super appreciate her always providing the best support and care for Storm. Always very communicative, flexible and kind. Thank you so much for keeping Storm safe.”
“Huri was excellent! Responded immediately, took our pup last minute. Within 2 hours of reaching out, she had our dog. Took excellent care of him. He was happy to stay with her and acted as if he had been treated great! Thanks again Huri!!”
“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!”
“I had Pluto stay for 6 nights, and this was my first time on a trip without Pluto, but Madeline was very accommodating and made sure that he got the love he needs! I had no worries during my trip that he was getting good quality time. She sent pictures and updates daily. Would definitely recommend her to others and would be happy to have him stay again!”
“My dogs had the best time and were well taken care of! So thankful that she was able to keep my pups while I was gone! Would recommend Amanda to anyone that needs a sitter while out of town! Will definitely be using her again!”
“John was very accommodating and worked with us. I was a little nervous about leaving my (new) dog (Brownie is a shy dog at first) with anyone but I felt comfortable that he was going to do well and both him and Brownie ended up hitting it off! Highly recommend!”
“Ariana was awesome! Sent pictures of Yona with her Aussies daily! I could tell Yona had such a great time! I would definitely recommend Ariana to anyone looking for someone to watch their pup! Thanks so much Ariana!”
“🐕🦺💕 I cannot say enough good things about Michelle and Bryce who watched our fur baby Rocky when we went on a family cruise Rocky is only a year old And he's a big baby weighing about 75 lb We have never left him with a pet sitter but Michelle and Bryce seem so kind and comforting from the first conversation we had, I knew the first time I met them that they were the perfect pet sitters for us they sent us plenty of pictures and videos and Rocky felt at home from the very beginning You could tell that they had a genuine love for him I will absolutely use them anytime that I need a pet sitter in the future what's we got back to our home it actually seemed like Rocky missed Michelle and Bryce which was just gave melconfirmation that they were the perfect pet sitters for us💕”
“Madeline was a wonderful dog sitter for my little pup. I had never used rover before and my dog is very ~particular~ so I was nervous how he would do with someone new. She took amazing care of him and provided several updates so I knew he was having a great weekend! I would 100% recommend Madeline if you are looking for a sweet, reliable Rover to watch your pup!”
About: I'm a dog lover with two miniature dachshunds who loves caring for other small dogs. I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I started pet sitting because I genuinely enjoy having extra puppy friends around. I only take one small dog at a time, so every guest gets lots of one-on-one attention in a calm, relaxed home environment. I’m a PhD student who works primarily from home, so your pup will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and playtime throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to provide daycare and overnight boarding on both weekdays and weekends. I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time so every guest gets the care, love, and attention they deserve. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have two friendly miniature dachshunds, Kiki and Lulu, who love other small dogs. To create a calm and safe environment, I only accept small breeds. Every dog is introduced slowly, supervised during play, and given their own space if they need a break. I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine for meals, potty breaks, medications, and bedtime, and I’ll send plenty of photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pup is having a great time.
“This was our first experience using a third-party app like Rover my wife and I were constantly putting our animal in kennel stays as we went out of town. When I got recommended the app, I was a bit skeptical, but after meeting Chris and seeing his interaction with Mattis, I was comfortable and knowing that he’d be left in some good hands. As we went on vacation out of the country Chris kept us informed with scheduled messages and rapid communication anytime I reached out. He gave me and my wife a piece of mind with pictures letting us know our pup and (despite being close to 70 lbs) was safe and having fun.. thanks for taking care of our fur baby Chris. Cheers!”

“Robin is a true cat whisperer. We felt so comfortable for Robin to care for our two kitties. She brought them toys, played with them, is very kind and loving, and was an overall great caretaker. Our cats are very time sensitive with their meals and Robin was on time early in the morning and early evening. They greeted her at the door and looked forward to her visits. Robin also was meticulous about keeping their food areas and litterbox clean. I recommend Robin as a cat or dog caretaker for any occasion. Robin loves animals and is our number one choice for kitty care. Our kitties love Robin! I have never had such a great caretaker.”
About: I’m a lifelong cat lover and proud cat mom to three cats of my own, all of whom I’ve raised since they were kittens! They truly have my whole heart! Because I have this experience with cats of different personalities, ages, and needs, I understand that every cat is unique. As a cat owner myself, I know how stressful and scary it can be to leave your pets behind. I’ve used Rover for my own cats and have been so lucky to find wonderful sitters, which inspired me to provide that same peace of mind to other cat parents. I’m experienced with daily cat care, including feeding, litter box maintenance (a little too experienced 🤣), administering oral and transdermal medications, and nail trimming. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and reserved, I’m more than happy to provide patient care and plenty of love while you’re away 💛
“Sabrina was amazing to our three kitties!!! She gave such detailed reports and sent so many cute photos! She even went an extra day last minute to check on them. I will absolutely use her for any future trips! Such a sweet cat caretaker 🥰🥰”
About: I grew up with a family dog who was a shih tzu and poodle mix. Now, I largely work with dogs who might need a little extra attention, but I’m open to working with other furry friends! Does your pet need medicine 3 times a day? I do that. Does your dog have leash aggression or very specific likes and dislikes? I've dealt with that too. Separation anxiety? Check! Senior dogs struggling with incontinence? I'm here to help. Currently, I offer house sitting (taking out trash, plant care, etc), drop ins, pet sitting (2-3 walks, medicine if applicable, feeding, play time), pet walks, and feeding. I can sometimes accommodate last minute bookings and am available most holidays and weekends. I offer pet sitting in my client's home to keep pets in the environment where they feel safest. I will collaborate with you to see what works best for your pet and their home. I love pets and will often spend a little extra time with them if you're worried about them being left alone. I know each dog and cat is different, so I'm more than happy to adjust to make sure they feel safe and comfortable!
“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.”
“My kitty and I love Alicia!!! She is so kind and gentle and loving to Milo. She gives me daily updates and keeps me in the loop always! I never have to worry with Milo with her!! Second time booking her and will definitely book again!!”
“Piper was amazing with my nala! She sat with her and cuddled with her all the time. She cleaned her food/water bowls and also her litter box! In addition to this she tidied up my living room and vacuumed the upstairs without me asking! Definitely recommend her for your next trip!”
“We are so lucky to have found Sophia! She has taken excellent care of our kitty over 2 vacations now. I have peace of mind knowing how reliable and capable Sophia is. It makes traveling a lot easier. Thanks Sophia!”
“Leah was one of the best sitters I have used extremely easy to communicate with, sent at least pictures to me every single day and navigated a complex apartment extremely well. For those in downtown Nashville area she is the real deal!”
“Elizabeth was awesome with my kitty and puppy! She was so thorough at the meet and greet, followed all my instructions, sent me awesome pictures and videos, and went above and beyond. Will 100% be booking with her for all my out of town visits.”
“Juliet was great with my cat Mustard and really helped me out by checking on her while I was out of town for Thanksgiving! She did a meet and greet beforehand and was great with communication. She provided updates on food, litter, and playtime after each visit. I definitely recommend booking with her!”
“Kait was so great with our two kittens! She gave us detailed summaries of each visit with many pictures. She gave them so much love and attention, we would definitely recommend kait and have her take care of our kitties again!”
“Isabel is fantastic! We moved to town 3 days before we quickly needed to leave for the holidays. After a cross country move with our cat Spaghetti, the last thing we wanted to do was board him. Isabel is reliable, timely, trustworthy, communicative and incredibly loving. She made sure we had nothing to worry about. She even made an extra drop in to collect an unexpected package that had been delivered. If I could give her 10 stars - I would! Look no further - Highly recommend!”
“We are so grateful to Kristian for taking such good care of our shy kitty Maya while we were away. She kept us updated with messages and photos, and knowing Maya was safe and cared for gave us complete peace of mind.”
About: I’ve been fostering litters through rescues since 2021! I have experience with everything from pregnant kitties, newborn babies/birth, and elderly cats! I also have experience administering oral medication, cleaning litter boxes like you’ve never seen them cleaned, and best of all snuggling and playing with the babies :) even if all they want is to stay far away from me, I’ll love them just the same ♥️ I’d love to take care of your cat!
“taylor was detailed and communicative in the care she provided - i felt very comfortable leaving my pets (and my thirsty porch plants) in her care - i will book her again next time i travel and i confidently recommend her to other folks - thanks, taylor! 🤍🤍”
“Bryce did an amazing job watching my cat. He was attentive, communicative and went above and beyond to make sure my cat was taken care of! I would recommend Bryce for anyone who needs a pet sitter!”

“Robin was amazing. Attentive and communicated well. She kept my pup super active while she had her and went above expectation of what was asked. Thank you so much!”
“Alexandra and katya are the absolute best. My lil guy loves them so much. I feel so relieved dropping him off and seeing how he can't wait to see them. He also comes home calm and well exercised. Very thankful!”

“Amanda is an incredibly kind, nurturing, and loving dog-sitter. She was able to accommodate us at the last minute, and our dog would wag his tail in excitement when he got out of the car and knew he was at Amanda's house. Highly recommended!”
About: Pets have always been a central part of my life. I grew up with dogs and have cared for them over the years, and I’ve had cats my whole life. I know how to read their behavior, keep routines consistent, and make sure your pet feels at ease whether you’re gone for a few hours or a few days. I work full time but I have plenty of flexibility to take care of your pet! I go into the office 3 times a week but I am off work by 3:30pm. I can do early mornings, late nights and weekends! I come to your home, so your pet gets to stay exactly where they’re most comfortable — in their own space, with their own smells, routines, and hiding spots. I follow your instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, litter box preferences, or which spots are off-limits. I’ll always send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Xue was great, Hoochu immediately loved her! She was very good at communicating everything and she was able to take care of him even though it was a very short notice. I will definitely book with her again!!”
About: Throughout my life, I’ve always had family pets; fish, chickens, a horse, dogs, a hamster, cats - you name it! Growing up, I was the person who wanted to help with feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, and making sure our pets felt loved. Two years ago, I got my own puppy, a miniature dachshund! Having my first pup all to myself gave me even more experience with pet care and understanding a dog's individual needs and personality. Since moving to Nashville, my pup has stayed back in my hometown with my parents, where she has a yard to run around and the familiar people she loves. While I know keeping her home was the best decision for her and she's thriving, I miss her tons and realized that I need pets in my life again! I understand that pets are family, and I treat them with the same patience, affection, and care that I would want for my own dog. Whether your pet needs playtime, walks, companionship, or simply someone dependable to stick to their routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently taking the summer off, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pet throughout the week. Just reach out and let me know your ideal schedule! At my apartment, I have a roommate who may be around, but will not be involved in caring for your pet. We have one cat who is quite shy and very sweet. Because of this, we have plenty of cat toys, food, and a spare litter box should your kitty come over! As for dogs, we have plenty of space, though no dog-specific toys/equipment. If your pup comes over, I will happily bring anything from your home that they’ll need to have a comfy stay. In general, my apartment has plenty of space for your pet to lounge, play, and have a great time. For outside time, we have a small balcony with 3.5ft tall safety railings that will allow your pet to get fresh air at any time. Beyond the balcony, I live in a walkable neighborhood that’s great for walks, playtime, exercise, and potty breaks. When at your home, I will always be respectful of your space. Ensuring I leave everything exactly as I found it, I’ll maximize time with your pet while also keeping the area tidy! When working with me, please just let me know any boundaries you have within your home and I’ll happily abide.
“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.”
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.
“Jonathan is the best dog sitter/walker/everything! He’s worth every penny he charges! I have a service dog and since he has experience with dog training and services dogs i wasn’t worried at all about my dog learning bad behaviors or habits. And u don’t even need to have a service dog to hire him! From what the other reviews said, their dogs came back from him even better behaved than when they were left in his care! My dog Chunk enjoyed his time with Jonathan and when I come again to visit my niece, I will definitely be hiring him again!”
“Melissa was so good with Blue. He played well with Hudson and she sends lots of photos and updates. Her yard is the best we have ever experienced. Both her front and backyard are fully fenced with lots of shade and room to run and play. I will definitely be leaving Blue with Melissa and Hudson again.”
“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: Dogs and cats are the center of my world! I have over 11 years of paid and volunteered hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets, including my own animals and those I’ve fostered through rescue organizations. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life but over the past 11 years I have volunteered at various animal shelters and provided the services offered on Rover through word-of-mouth and other platforms/websites! I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages—from newborns to seniors—and pets with medical conditions, special needs, and behavioral challenges. I also have experience with birds, rabbits, and some reptiles. My family owns a farm so I have experience providing care for farm animals as well! What sets me apart is my ability to quickly assess and adapt to each pet’s unique personality and requirements. I’m especially patient and attentive with nervous or reactive animals, and I’m experienced in administering medications, maintaining structured routines, and creating calm, secure environments for animals in transition. AND I just might take the cutest/funniest candid photos of your pet that you’ve ever seen. Check out my photo gallery of cute fur babies I’ve loved on! Fostering has also given me valuable experience with socialization, basic training, post-surgery care, and working with pets recovering from trauma or neglect. I genuinely love building trust with animals and helping them feel safe, which is something pet owners consistently appreciate when they leave their companions in my care. IMPORTANT NOTES: *House sitting is a great way to ensure your pet has companionship in addition to having their physical needs met (food, water, bathroom etc.) Please note that house sitting and constant care are two separate services. Constant care (aka 24/7 house sitting) means that I would only leave your pet in the event of a genuine emergency. Otherwise, all of my time will be spent at your home caring for your pet. This is priced at an hourly rate, which will vary case by case. For traditional house sitting, we will discuss a plan that you’re comfortable with for how often I will leave your pet(s), and how long they will be left alone. If your request is well in advance of the stay, I can most likely adjust my schedule to focus more on your pet(s) if needed. Please vocalize your wants, needs, and expectations. **Meet and greets strongly suggested/required in some cases if: A) You have a pet with extreme anxiety, behavioral issues, or unknown reactions to being left in the care of a new person. B) You live in an apartment complex—mainly if you feel or have been told that your complex is difficult to navigate. I don’t want a large chunk of the visit to be spent trying to fI want to be spending as much time with your pet as possible! C) You have particularly unique and/or specific preferences for your pet’s care. I love detailed instructions—actually, I prefer you share as many details with me as you’d like. No one has ever bothered me with too many details/instructions! I would love to get a feel for and see what this will look like during the meet and greet. ***as of 2/20/26 I will have moved from Franklin, TN 37069 to Nashville, TN 37215. My ability to continue services with repeat clients from before that date (without an additional distance fee) is contingent on driving time to your location. **** if you find any part of the booking is not meeting your standards/expectations, please communicate this to me so I can adjust the issue or potentially request a refund via customer support for that visit. I strive to individualize care per your requests in order to effectively meet the needs of every client. Furthermore, I want my clients to always feel heard and supported. *****Boarding and day care information if you have a medium to XL size dog, pets who don’t react well to cats, and/or you prefer a yard and extensive exercise during the booking: My family owns a large property and farm about 10 minutes from my apartment. I am able to stay there in their guest house with your pets rather than board them at my apartment. That’s why it says I live in Greenhills yet also have a yard/fence, and live on a farm. This is honestly preferable for any large dog who are guarded/activated around other dogs. Like most apartment complexes, my complex is heavily populated by dog owners and we would encounter other dogs each time we go outside. That being said, I can still board larger and/or reactive dogs, dogs who don’t mix well with cats, and dogs requiring extra exercise. We would just be staying on the farm! ____________ More about me (if you’re curious): -Outside of pet care I am a licensed social worker (non-practicing at the moment) and a part time esthetician student. My social work career mostly includes providing individual or group mental health therapy, and case management for individuals experiencing homelessness, previously incarcerated, and/or with mental health and substance use disorders. As you can probably imagine, shifting towards Rover and esthetician school has been a major change! -During my free time I love working out—Pilates, barre, & running/walking. I’m relatively athletic so I can provide exercise tailored to each pet’s needs. With pets whose owners would prefer more exercise, I am able to provide more fast paced exercise, such as speed walking or jogging. And you’ll never have to worry if your dog happens to be a larger dog and/or pulls on the leash. Still haven’t met a dog I haven’t been able to walk! -I’m very big on volunteer work since I am not currently practicing social work. I have a very nurturing side, and while I’m so excited to become an esthetician, I would love to still be engaged in service of others. Right now I am developing an outline for a “pay what you can” farm-to-table service using the products of my family’s farm. Also in progress is an incorporation of my skincare, beauty, and wellness services into a larger ministry that serves survivors of trafficking, addiction, and/or DV. -During my free time I also enjoy binging thrillers and crime dramas during my free time. I’ve been getting into true crime podcasts. So yes, I’ll most likely be listening to Dateline while driving to our meet and greet at your house when I’ve never met you before. As if I need to be any more nervous about that part of this job! Happy to do it though. I love this job. But if you do happen to want to meet at a dog park or coffee place, I won’t object! - I’m a Nashville native and the oldest of four kids in my family. I’m a bit of an extroverted introvert. I enjoy my alone time and being home as much as possible. But if you bring me around social situations, I could talk to just about anyone about anything. - I have a kitten, young adult kitty, and a senior cat living with me full time. I have a senior (family) dog living with me only a few months out of the year when my parents snowbird in Florida. However, due to his recent decline in health/mobility, he most likely won’t be living with me in Winter 2026, unfortunately. I commute to a night school M-Th 5:30pm-10pm and work another job remotely. A few days each month, I work in person and won’t have much availability on those days. I typically know my schedule 1-3 weeks out, so scheduling conflicts are adjustable if I’m already available for the majority of the booking. Last minute bookings are typically contingent on flexibility and/or my being available without having to cancel appointments or compromise the quality of another pre-existing booking. Rover is my main obligation outside of school. I prioritize my rover bookings over most things. Alongside client satisfaction, self-care is imperative to me. While I am finishing school over the next few months, I typically will not accept early morning bookings unless there is flexibility with the times. However, I am able to offer late night visits on days off from school due to my routine sleep schedule. Quite a few of my repeat clients work night shifts and I’ve provided care for their pets between 11pm-4am. I try to avoid committing to any visits after 4am and before 10am so that I can keep a consistent sleep schedule, and be punctual for you! When caring for pets, safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions from the owner, including dietary needs, medications, walking preferences, and any behavioral considerations. I have gained a good amount of experience over the last few years in the area of taking care of senior pets and pre-adoption pets. My pup, Pasco, is currently receiving medications and palliative care, so I have personally experience in this area. Before adopting my kitten, Ocean, I recently fostered three pre-adopted kittens that needed bottle-feeding and gentle help with passing stool. I make sure the home environment is pet-proofed—keeping hazards like wires, cleaning products, and choking risks out of reach. I also monitor pets closely for any signs of distress, illness, or unusual behavior and will notify the owner immediately if anything seems off. Building trust with both the pet and their owner is equally important. I take time to get to know each animal’s temperament, routines, and comfort zones so they feel safe and secure in my presence. Whether in my home or theirs, I maintain a calm, structured environment, offer plenty of positive attention, and create a consistent routine that pets can rely on. Regarding trust and safety, as a sitter I also request that you disclose any video and/or audio surveillance inside your home before officially booking with me. It goes against Rover’s guidelines (and federal law) to not disclose indoor surveillance. I recognize that it is part of today’s culture to have at least some form of video surveillance on one’s property. 90% of clients I work with have some form of video surveillance. As an owner myself, who also hires Rover sitters to care for my pets, I understand there’s an element of trust that has not yet been built, in addition to the general security concerns associated with being out of town. I am not against video surveillance and wouldn’t turn away a client for having a couple cameras. However, excessive surveillance throughout the inside of your home is not something I’m comfortable with, personally. I have no doubt you’ll find someone who doesn’t mind, but I am not that person. For in-home services, I’m respectful of the client’s space—leaving things clean and secure, and keeping communication open with daily updates, photos, and check-ins so the owner feels confident their pet is in good hands.
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 have experience sitting for neighbors dogs as well as taking care of a dog of my own. I am currently in PA school, so I have a helping heart and caring spirit! I’m looking for a fun way to fill my free time and help out in the community! I am currently in PA school in clinical rotations, so my schedule varies month to month. I am very responsible and have a love for dogs, so I just looking to pick up something extra on the side! I live in a two bedroom apartment that is dog friendly. My apartment has plenty of space, a dog park, and we are located right next to lots of walking neighborhoods and parks!
“Bowman has been an incredible help to our family while we were dealing with a healthcare issue. He’s gone above and beyond and been available every time we needed him. He’s prompt, communicative, and wonderful with the dogs. Cannot recommend enough!”
“Taylor was great! Had a last minute change of plans that meant I needed someone to walk my puppy the next day and she was a major help in being able to accommodate the ask. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures!”
About: Hi, my name is Sophia! I’m a proud owner of a 11 year old Jack Russel/Staffy mix named Liam! He’s typically shy with other dogs at first but opens up after a good few sniffs. I also have two cats named Emilio and Antonio. They want to be friends with Liam so badly but he hilariously ignores their affections. I have enjoyed working with animals most of my life and I’m experienced with dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, and snakes. Having worked at a veterinary clinic all through high school, I then volunteered at the local animal shelter throughout college. I absolutely adore all animals and all the much needed love they bring. I can’t wait to meet yours! I work two part-time jobs as well as gigging in the music scene. My schedule is either super open or sometimes less so! That being said, my family has moved to town so I will always be around for the holidays. My dog has separation anxiety so at-home stays can be tough but not impossible as I also have a lovely roommate he adores. My cats are good with dogs as well! I’m very experienced with drop-in visits and overnight stays. I follow instructions well and can easily cater to the needs of your pup or pups.
“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.”
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
“Emily has been walking my dog regularly for over a year now. She is extremely attentive and thorough whenever she comes over and has build such a bond with him! I know that my doggy is in good hands!”

I can feed them on their schedule, I am comfortable with crates, and I am familiar with administering pills / flea medicine.

“This was our first experience using a third-party app like Rover my wife and I were constantly putting our animal in kennel stays as we went out of town. When I got recommended the app, I was a bit skeptical, but after meeting Chris and seeing his interaction with Mattis, I was comfortable and knowing that he’d be left in some good hands. As we went on vacation out of the country Chris kept us informed with scheduled messages and rapid communication anytime I reached out. He gave me and my wife a piece of mind with pictures letting us know our pup and (despite being close to 70 lbs) was safe and having fun.. thanks for taking care of our fur baby Chris. Cheers!”
