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!”
“Natalie is AMAZING!! I have a 4 month old puppy (not fully potty trained and Natalie didn't even blink an eye. She took such great care of Ollie. I received at least 3 photos a day and she even sent videos. It made my heart so happy knowing Ollie was having so much fun with Natalie and her dog Rory! Her house is super cute/clean and she just loves dogs. I was scrambling trying to find someone to watch Ollie while I was gone for my work conference and Natalie saved the day. Only downside is i think Ollie didn't want to leave!! :) Thank you Natalie!!”

“Alex was awesome! I was so nervous to get have someone other than my Mom watch my cats and Alex was great! I already have her booked to take care of my cats on my next trip. Highly recommend!”
“Whitney was incredible! This was my first time being away from my cat since I got him, so I had a million questions and lots of little things to note. She handled everything I asked—and more. I was nervous leaving my cat with a stranger, but she completely put me at ease. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Heather was fantastic! She made me feel completely comfortable leaving my cat and home in her care. Her communication was great, her updates were thoughtful, and it was obvious my cat was genuinely well cared for and comfortable. It was such a relief knowing everything was in good hands, and I won’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“I had a last-minute travel arrangement change that left me in need of care for my cat and Laura was so willing to jump in, and still made time to drop by to meet him and get the lay of the land before I left even on such short notice. She took great care of Lars in my absence, I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“We were gone for an extended vacation and while we were gone, one of our kitties had very bad anxiety, which led to lots of um, “messes” to clean up - much more than is normal! Madi diligently cleaned up after the messy boy AND weighed him intermittently to make sure he wasn’t losing weight (needing the vet). She went over-and-above on this front and all the while continued to ensure they got plenty of snuggles, food, water, and litter care. Madi is a gem, genuinely loves your pets, and will go the extra mile to ensure they are well cared for in your absence!”
“Lynne has watched my cat twice now and is always very punctual. If you have a cat then you know that they appreciate this when breakfast time comes along in the morning :) Lynne takes care of all my needs and is very attentive to my baby, even though London is standoffish to strangers. I never have to worry about her knowing she’s in good hands.”
“Jill was great watching our old man cat! Love getting updates and photos during her visits. He gets lonely when we go out of town so it was great having Jill come by to meet him before our trip.”
“Athena was excellent with Leo and Louie! She is great at communicating how they were doing, what their behaviors were, and sent lots of photos of my cats. I would definitely rebook with her.”
“Sarah was great! Amazing communication and notes and made me feel at peace that my cats were taken care of while I was away. Will definitely be booking again :)”
“Haley provided such diligent care of my cat, Shadow! She provided detailed updates of each visit with lots of pictures. I was so happy that my cat was so well taken care of!”
“Amy is wonderful with my sweet tabby rescue. Stuart only appears if he really likes you/ loves you. Then he’ll do rolls, purrs, and even make some biscuits. He loves Amy. Thank you Amy!!”
“Macy was absolutely amazing with Arlo during her check-in visits at my home! Arlo can be very timid, shy, and nervous with new people, and Macy handled him with so much patience. It meant a lot to see him warm up and let his sweet, fun personality shine through. She was always prompt for every check-in, incredibly responsive, and sent wonderful photos and detailed updates that gave me total peace of mind. Even with a busy weekend, I loved seeing each update come through and knowing Arlo was comfortable and well cared for in his own space. Macy truly made my first Rover experience such a positive one, and I would absolutely love to keep her as Arlo’s sitter for future needs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and compassionate sitter. 🐾💛”
“Thanks Beth, always very accommodating for Honey. I needed you in a pitch tonight. I was delayed on my flight back Nashville and Beth helped us out last minute!”

“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.”
“Laura took great care of Alfie and updated us regularly with pictures and comments. He did great and is excited to be part of her “pack” again in the future!”
“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!”
“Michaela is awesome! She was able to help with my pup on short notice and Roxie is tuckered out after a day of play! I am able to work and know that Roxie is in great hands, gives me so much piece of mind. I am so thankful!”
“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!!”
“Alescia was amazing with our dog Fern! She sent us regular updates and pictures. Our dogs got along great together and played a lot of fetch outside. I know Fern felt comfortable and Happy in Alescia's home and will be excited to go back!”
“Margaret provided a safe and very quiet space for our anxious pup, Rio, while we explored Nashville on our cross country trip. We travel a lot, and Rio has been in a lot of Rover homes. Margaret’s setup was one of the better ones we’ve visited, and she had a good rapport with Rio. He slept for much of the day, which he doesn’t always do at Rover. That means he felt safe, secure, and at peace. We will book again the next time we’re in Nashville!”
“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.”
“My puppy was very happy and Cristina answered me right away when I had any questions, I am super happy and I will definitely leave my puppy with her again”
“Excellent sitter! Great communication. She sent lots of updates and took great care of my dog. My dog came home happy! Would definitely rebook next time I’m in the area!”
“This was our first time having other folks watch Clemmie and we appreciate the care and photos! Megan and Kerry have a great set up, and our pup had fun playing! Excited to have her go back for more fun.”
“Absolutely! I cannot recommend Angeli highly enough! From the moment I entrusted my beloved furry friend into their care, I knew I had found someone truly exceptional. Angeli demonstrated not only a genuine love for animals but also unparalleled professionalism and dedication. They went above and beyond to ensure my dog's comfort and happiness, providing daily updates and photos that brought me immense peace of mind during my time away. Their attention to detail, reliability, and compassionate approach set them apart. My dog returned home visibly content, a testament to the fantastic care they received. Thank you, Angeli, for your outstanding service!”
“Paris was great! We needed a sitter at the last minute and he was available. He sent so many pictures throughout the day, I know my pups had a great time with him. We are so happy to have found him, thank you!!!”
“Gracie had a great daycare day with Toni. Love getting the pictures of her snuggling with Toni too. We had an urgent situation with my air conditioner quitting working and was really happy to be able to have a nice place for Gracie to spend the day.”
About: Hi! We are Saori and Jonathan. We love pups and hope to take care of yours. Jonathan grew up caring for his family dog, and we have regularly taken care of friends' dogs for 10+ years. We finally adopted our own rescue dog in 2020 (an adorable little Beagle named Alfie), who has taken a *very* long time to come out of his shell. We have a lot of experience working with professionals to improve Alfie's anxiety. That experience has taught us a lot about reading dog body language and the importance of creating an environment that makes nervous dogs more comfortable. Your dog will get that same loving, calm energy here. We strive to make our home a dog-friendly location safe for every dog. Saori works part-time from home, and therefore has a lot of flexibility to play with your pooch and spend quality time together! On a typical day, we take dogs for a walk on the quiet neighborhood streets, on the trails in Shelby Bottoms, or in the dog park (if they are up for it). On weekends, we like to take a longer walk on trails whenever we can, and have plenty of cozy downtime at home in between. Given our own dog's separation anxiety, someone is always at home. If we ever need to leave them alone, we will let you know. We have fenced-in front and back yards where your pup can enjoy a sniffing adventure, playing fetch, or sunbathing on the lawn. We have dog beds throughout the house, and our canine guests are allowed on any furniture. We do not crate our dog, but can keep the same routine you have at home and let your dog sleep wherever they are most comfortable. We feed our dog twice a day and can accommodate other schedules or feeding dogs separately.
About: For 5 years I’ve shared my life with a rescue dog (Buster) and have walked and boarded dogs often. Buster loves having company around! I’m especially good with shy or protective rescues, but I can accommodate any size or breed of dog. Calm energy, reliable routines, and great care guaranteed. Just reach out and let me know what dates you need covered and I’m your guy! My dog Buster loves having company around and is a chill hang for any dog. You can ensure that your dog will not be bored or bothered! I can work around whatever your needs are! My job is flexible and I can work in-office and 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!

“Henning was great walking and feeding our dogs. It was so nice knowing Henning was going to be there for their normal mid day routine when I couldn’t. He also gave our cat some love when he would join the mix. Appreciated all the photos Henning took too!”
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.
“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.”
“Jacqueline was phenomenal! She showed up for every walk exactly when she promised she would and did a great job exercising my higher energy dogs. She was very sweet and seemed super responsible. She sent pictures and updates timely and I would absolutely hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Anna is amazing! She connected with Cali easily and built trust with her right away. During visits she helped reinforce skills that Cali was learning and worked with her on some new ones too. Anna’s reliable and a great communicator. I highly recommend her!”
“Ally is fantastic! She walked my dog and my mom’s dog while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. She came to meet our dog beforehand and was extremely professional and nice. We had such peace of mind on our vacation knowing Ally was giving Finn, consistent, good walks! We will absolutely be using her again.”
“Niki is absolutely incredible! She took care of all of Mable’s needs while I was at work and I will definitely use her whenever she’s available! Best experience I’ve had on Rover so far!”
About: I’m originally from Venezuela and I used to be around my 3 dogs all the time. I was taking care of a cat for almost 2 years before I move to Nashville I recently move to Nashville. I’m available most weekdays and excited to spend time with dogs. My routine includes scheduled walks, feeding, playtime to ensure their happiness I provide loving, reliable pet care by following routines, ensuring playtime, and keeping spaces clean. I live in a pet-friendly apartment, offering a safe, comfortable environment
About: I’ve loved dogs and cats my whole life! I have been pet sitting/ walking since I was old enough to, and I now own two lovely cats :) I love pets of all ages, breeds, and sizes, and am very patient / experienced with elderly and young pets. As a musician, I get to create my own schedule—meaning I am very flexible and can adapt to your needs. If you’ll have me, I’d love to treat your precious ones with the same love and care i could my own someday :) I have a very flexible schedule at the moment! I can create my daily schedule based on your needs. I am organized and reliable, and have no problem waking up very early or staying late to make sure your pets are happy and safe! I am very gentle with pets, but also very playful! I recognize that they are often home alone for a good portion of the day, and that they would love a companion and a way to release energy. In my own home, I carve out time each and every day to properly stimulate my cats! In others’ homes, I do my best to appear as a familiar figure in the pets’ safe space. With cats, I take a gentler approach. With dogs, I let them sniff and then shower them with cuddles and playtime! And on walks, I am happy to walk them for as long as needed. I recognize that some dogs need a lot of exercise or stimulation, and with my active lifestyle it’s nothing I can’t handle.
About: Hi! I’m Macy – a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I raised my own pup, Teddy, from about week 10, and that experience taught me patience, intuition, and how to build trust with animals.A few summers back, I cared for my sister and brother-in-law's dogs in Atlanta—a sweet Cavalier and a high-energy German Shepherd—which meant managing very different needs and energy levels all day, every day. It was a full house, but I loved every minute of it. I have a large, secure backyard perfect for playtime, and I’m an avid walker and runner (newly accomplished half-marathon girly here!), so your dog will get plenty of fresh air and exercise. With a flexible WFH schedule 2–3 days a week, I can give pets extra attention and companionship throughout the day. I treat every animal like my own, and I’d love to help give yours the same love, care, and fun they’re used to at home. I work from home on Thursdays and Fridays, which means your pet will have plenty of company and care throughout the day. I build in regular breaks to take dogs on walks, play in the yard, and keep up with feeding routines. Whether your pet needs activity or just a calm presence nearby, I’m here to make them feel safe and loved. Creating a safe, trusted environment is my top priority. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality and needs, whether that means extra snuggles, space to roam, or a calm, quiet spot to relax. In addition to my WFH days, I’d love to welcome your dog for overnight stays—especially on weekends, when they can enjoy plenty of time outside playing with my friendly dog, Teddy, in the backyard. I'm happy to crate your pup or let them have free roam of the house—whatever makes them (and you!) most comfortable.
“Kirstie is amazing. She has great energy and is very friendly. Kona took to her immediately and she treated him like he was her own dog. I was very impressed with how fast Kona and Kirstie connected. She was able to quickly pick up the commands and rules Kona follows and we felt comfortable leaving our dog in such good hands.”
About: I am a true dog lover! I have had 3 dogs in my life and I am very comfortable around all breeds. I most recently had two yellow labs - both deceased - and I miss having dogs around. They both had vast medical issues, cancer, diabetes, etc. and I am very comfortable administering medication, shots, pills etc. if need be. My husband works from home and will be able to walk the dogs and play with them throughout the day. I will be able to stop at home during lunch to walk the dogs and play with them as well throughout the day. We are both animal lovers and would have a blast taking care of your dog(s) while you're away! We can't wait!
