“Emily is doing fantastic work watching my pup while I backpack! I am so glad Emmi is well-taken care of; she even made her a custom frisbee!! Thanks Emily!!!”

“Nathan and his family are so kind and caring. Would definitely rebook! Received daily pictures and updates. They were so flexible of our schedule and some unforeseen circumstances.”

“I had my two dogs with Niyired for 6 days. They were well taken care of and they seemed happy in their boarding place. The place was clean and they had ample place to play. The sitter sent pics from time to time. I wished to get more pics as we missed our dogs a lot during the travel. But it was really nice of her to help us at the last minute when two other sitters canceled. We will surely use this sitter again.”

“Troy was great with Loki. He was always quick to respond and kept him very active during his stay. Really seemed like Loki had a great time and it was very easy to work with Troy. Would recommend and rebook in the future.”

“Wow! We are so pleased with Olivia and Rapha’s stay in Nashville. We stopped for the day to see Nashville inner city sites (music row, museums etc.). We couldn’t have been more pleased. Rapha took to Olivia and her house mates immediately, which isn’t usually the case. He felt comfortable from the get-go. Olivia shared pictures throughout the day and evening for me which helped ease our separation ;). She was also very flexible for our changing pickup and drop off times as we adjusted to road travel issues and springing forward on time. We will definitely use Olivia again when we pass through Nashville. Exceptional!”

“My dog absolutely loves Leah and her family! She feels right at home with them and enjoys her time there as evidenced by the multiple photos Leah always sends me when my Sadie Goldendoodle stays with her. We have booked many times with Leah and are so very happy to have found her!!”


“Laura is an exceptional dog sitter. I boarded my dog with her for a week and knew my dog was in good hands. Laura is knowledgeable and intuitive about dogs in general and in the specific needs of my dog. She sent me videos and texts throughout the week which reassured me of my dog's wellbeing.”

“We left our pups with Katherine twice now and both times they came home so happy (and tired!). She was very responsive and flexible with our flight delays. We are sad that our time in Nashville has come to an end and wish we could take her (and Bronco) with us!”

“Waka had a great time with Gary. Gary sent pictures and videos during Waka's stay. Waka is high energy and Gary worked well with him. I dropped off and picked up a happy pup!”

“My my dog was recovering from surgery when I had to leave town and Margaret took her in for a couple of days. She was communicative, super enthusiastic and positive and my dog got excellent care!”

“Katie was so sweet with Murphy, she graciously let us do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure he and Margot were buddies (they got on famously), and was very communicative about his time there, and was diligent in administering his twice daily medications. She was flexible working with our drop off and pick up schedule and I look forward to booking with her again if the need arises!”

“Lily was so good with our Charlie! We felt at ease knowing he was well loved and taken care of. She was great at sending us pictures and updates. Will definitely use Lily anytime we go out of town to care for our fur baby.”

“🐕🦺💕 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💕”

“Highly recommended and very flexible with sudden schedule changes. Aubrey took a very good care of our Roxy and Luna and they had a blast! Will definitely be a repeat client!!!”

“Christina came through in a pinch and watched Teigen last minute for us after another sitter cancelled on us. Teigen was well cared for and happy at Christina’s house. Thanks Christina!”

“Lauren is a very reliable sitter for my cats. She came over for a meet and greet before and always showed up very promptly to take care of them. Unfortunately, she didn't have very much interaction with my cats because they are former ferals and afraid of everybody but me. I'm sure she would have played with them if they would just come out and trust her. Maybe in time they will when she comes again. The cats are like that about everybody. But, their needs were taken care of perfectly while she was there and she sent me pictures every day. I will definitely use Lauren again and maybe Boots and Midnight will learn to love her too!”


“Maggie is wonderful! She followed my very particular instructions with the cats and sent me updates about her drop-ins. She spent lots of time with them. Will definitely book Maggie again!”

“Matthew is an excellent pet sitter. He takes wonderful care of my cats, always very attentive and playful with them. He provides timely communication and great photos. Matthew is my go-to. Book him now! 10/10 recommendation”


About: I have worked with animals for the past 19 years. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in animal science and have worked with many different species from young to old. My work experience ranges from general practice and emergency room veterinarian clinics, an animal shelter to the Knoxville zoo, and 7 years in animal agriculture. My love for all animals runs deep and through my experience I am able to administer medications, perform CPR, and just understand animal behavior all together. I personally have had two dachshunds of my own from young rescues to 17 year old seniors.

“Our cats are so comfortable with Dana, even our shyest guy comes right out for her. Dana’s very communicative and provides great visit summaries, too. We’re so happy/relieved when we can book her to watch our guys when we’re out of town.”


“Yan did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away. My one cat is shy so she didn’t get to meet her but she played with my other cat, gave her treats, and showed her some love. The litterbox was kept clean as well. She also sent me plenty of cute photos to update me with each visit! I would highly recommend Yan for looking after your felines!”


“Ashley was great and so sweet to my kitty! She sent pics everyday and made sure he had food, water and outside play time! She even came over for a meet and greet before so I could introduce her to my cat. Will definitely be using her again :)”


“We are repeat customers and always feel great leaving our senior cat in Amy’s care. She’s very reliable, goes above and beyond, and gives our boy the extra attention he needs with twice daily insulin shots.”

“Megan is excellent! She took great care of our cat Lilly and kept us updated throughout. Megan was quick to respond to any questions we had and it’s clear from the pictures that Lilly was quite smitten with her. We look forward to booking with Megan again. Highly recommend!”

“Lizzie was great! She was experienced with giving insulin which was a huge plus for our diabetic guy. We really appreciated the updates and videos we received and knowing everyone was well taken care of!”


About: I have a special place in my heart for cats. I am extremely comfortable with kittens all the way to senior cats. I also have experience with special needs animals, giving insulin shots and medication. I don’t mind cleaning litter boxes as well!

“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.”

“Lauren was amazing! My dog and hers got along great and her yard is very secure. My dog was happy, fed, and extremely tired every night when I picked him up. Highly recommend!”

“Carolyn was a fantastic dog sitter for us. Our dog Fillmore enjoyed spending the day with her. She was very responsive and provided great updates. I would recommend her to anyone and plan to use her again in the future.”

“We are very selective about leaving our little boy with anyone. But, we immediately felt comfortable with Megan and Kerry. They were great and Mokee had a good time. After we're away from him, he normally goes wild to see us again. This time he was "ho hum, you're back." Oddly, that makes me happy! 😂”

“Jonathan and Saori are wonderful caregivers for dogs! Our puppy was extremely well looked after, and calm and content when I picked her up. I trust them completely and look forward to using their services again.”

About: Hey there! I'm Lily, dog-momma to Teddy, a 2-year-old goldendoodle. I work fully remotely, so your dog will have lots of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I’m also active, so walks and playtime are always on the agenda. I’d love to welcome your pup into my home for boarding or doggy daycare. We have a large, fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for running, playing, and getting those zoomies out. I also have the sweetest 2-year-old Goldendoodle who absolutely loves other dogs and would be thrilled to have a playmate around during their stay. I know how hard it can be to find someone you fully trust with your furry friend. My goal is to make you feel completely at ease, knowing your pup is safe, loved, well cared for, and having a great time while you’re away. I am currently working remote full time so I am very flexible when it comes to scheduling. I’ve found this makes it easy to meet all walking schedules with no stress. My safety rules: - I believe in keeping a leash on when walking - Even if your dog is kind, others might not be, so if we go to a park or go on a walk, I will always be on guard to protect your dog if the other instigates a fight - I will feed your dog by your instructions - I will only give your dog treats that you authorize, no human food - I will consistently make sure there is water for your dog
“Christina immediately put me at ease when we arrived at her location. The way she was able to bond with Emmy Lou was pretty amazing. Emmy Lou is generally pretty shy and reserved but yet she was extremely comfortable there. That means a lot to me. Would definitely use her again.”

“My babies had the best day with Paris!! He gave me updates and pictures throughout the day too. My family was visiting from New Orleans, but if we’re ever passing through again, we will definitely use him!”
“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!”


“Laura is the best! I have to drop my dog off early in the morning and often pick her up late in the evening because I work 12 hr shifts. My dog has the best time hanging with Laura and her pups”
“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!”

“We're very pleased with Konnor's doggy daycare service. She was very accommodating of our last-minute, 1-day notice. Finn had plenty of fur friends to play with. He returned to us looking as happy as a clam! We will definitely book with her again the next time we stay in the Nashville area.”

“We love Ashlee and Nash! Nash is so patient with our energetic puppy and I love seeing videos of them playing throughout the day. I feel comfortable knowing that our puppy is in good hands during the day!”

“Thalia is just the sweetest! I was really worried about Shelly's very first daycare and she was so kind as to send pictures and texts throughout the day. Hey yard is the perfect place for a romp and Bonnie is the most adorable playmate. We will definitely see her again soon!”

“Our dog had a wonderful time at doggy daycare. It was his first time meeting Nathan and June and I could tell he was totally comfortable with him when I picked him up which is what every pet parent wants when they are away. Nathan is friendly and great at communicating, sending pictures and updates, which again puts my mind at ease.”
“Valerie was amazing. I could not have asked for a better pet sitter. She absolutely loves and understands dogs. Had water ready for them. Took them outside to go potty as we had just got in from Gatlinburg. She kept me up to date. Will definitely use her again if we are ever in Nashville again.”

“Tara and her husband did a fantastic job watching our dog! We were very happy with communication and updates throughout the visit. We felt completely comfortable and knew our dog was being well cared for. Very happy and will book again!”

About: I have experience with nearly every pet - from small animals to horses, and everything in between! I have researched for countless hours, bettering my knowledge to care for my furry (or not!) friends in the best way possible. I make my own schedule, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I am very flexible and understanding, so I look forward to your pet being a part of my day! We all know what is best for our pets, so I will gladly follow all directions and care plans specific to your pet. I will update you as little or as often as you’d like. I will match the energy of your pet, so we will always have fun 🤩
“Big thanks to Dale for walking our senior dog on short notice! Great communication from start to finish — we knew our dog was in excellent hands and we would definitely book with Dale again!”

“Riley and Victoria were wonderful! They checked on Lexi exactly when they said they would and sent pictures and notes about their visit. I would definitely use them again.”

“Shelby was so amazing with my mama’s boy of a bully-boxer baby! He can be a stubborn one but he surely adored her! And she captured some adorable photos on their walk ?. Will definitely book her again ⭐️”
About: I have lived with and cared for pets since I was 5 years old. I grew up with 3 dogs and have had my own cat for 5 years now! I truly love animals and nothing brings me more joy than seeing that an animal is safe, loved, and getting the care that they need. Whether your pet is small or large, young or old, I can’t wait to make their day brighter and your life easier! I work from home part time and have a pretty flexible schedule. I can make most visits work, even with last minute notice! Late mornings to early evenings preferred, but I can be flexible. I will always be respectful of your things and leave your home just as I found it! I have experience with senior dogs and am comfortable administering medicine if need be.
“Torey was fantastic! My wife and I were very anxious to leave our dog home for a two-week trip he couldn't join, but Torey put us right at ease with two meet-and-greets and plenty of updates and pictures. She was also very reachable through the app, which helped us feel comfortable being away. And she even watered our plants for us! Our dog and home were in great condition when we got back, and we're so grateful to Torey for making this as easy as possible for us. We definitely recommend her and will be reaching out next time we need a Rover!”

About: Hi there! I'm Thalia, I'm a stay at home mom with lots of love to give your pup. I grew up with dogs and have spent a lot of time sitting for friends dogs over the years while they're out of town. I have a 1.5 year old Havanese named Bonnie, she weighs about 6 pounds and is a ball of energy! She gets along super well with other dogs, part of the reason I'm becoming a sitter on Rover is to give her some temporary playmates. My home in East Nashville is on a quiet street with a large, fenced in back yard for the dogs to run around in. Because I am home during the day I'm able to give frequent potty breaks, lots of attention, and ample play time! I currently work from home, so I have lots of free time during the day to hang with your pups! My daughter loves animals and is a fantastic little helper. I have a fully fenced in yard (over a quarter acre) with ample room for the pups to run & play. Our home is located on quiet street in East Nashville with lots of other families & doggies around!

“Ali was wonderful. She asked whether I wanted to do a meet and greet with the pups ahead of time, since I was going to be away for most of the time she was walking them. She also kindly helped clean one of my pups up when he had some digestive issues. She was kind, reliable and my pups were better off with her caring for them while I was away.”


About: My family has had dogs since I was very young, and I have had my own dog for 3 years now. She is a rescue, and I have had her since she was 6 months old. I work full-time in a bakery and am off most days around 1-3pm. I do have some free mornings as well and would be able to drop by with notice. I live close to East Nashville with my dog, Millie, and cat, Spoon! I live by all the good walking trails. I would love to schedule some dog-walking nearby so that i can take full advantage of all the great weather we are having.
About: I've had at least one dog since I was in kindergarten and my dream is to one day live on a farm with several! I currently have two dogs, one is 3.5 years old and the other is 14, so I have experience caring for dogs of all ages. I also care for my friends' dogs (mostly large breeds) when they travel. The more dogs, the merrier! I currently work at a farm from Monday through Friday from 7:00AM to 3:00PM, but this can be flexible to accommodate daily walks, check-ins, etc. I have a decent sized, fenced backyard for my two dogs, and they love having friends over to play! I take my dogs on daily walks, feed them twice a day, and give them lots of attention and time to play.
“Abby is great and our pup absolutely adores her! We would be lost without her help. She is a great communicator and is extremely reliable. We are so thankful for her!”

About: I love caring for animals and discovering their unique personalities. My whole life I’ve always had a cat or dog living with me, whether it be mine or my roommates. Making sure they know they are loved and safe is my top priority. I am an Assistant Director in the film and Television industry, during my downtime between jobs I have an ample amount of time in my days. With dogs I work hard to build a level of trust between me and the pup. Consistency and repetition is key for me. Each dog is different so it takes some effort to get to understand them.
About: Nice to meet you! I go by Abe and I have about 30 years of experience with my own dogs along with several years of experience with pets of others as well.This includes pet sitting at my own home and extended pet sitting at the homes of others. I have a 6 year old black husky mix who has stolen my heart for good and keeps me on my feet playing frisbee every day. Whether your dog likes to run, play, or just the company and a belly rub, we will be fast friends. You can truly always feel assured that I will treat your dog like my own, no matter what their needs. I'd love to set up a meet and greet with you and your pup to see that we are the best fit! I have a flexible schedule and am available to give my full attention when I am with your pet. They won’t be left alone long or bored at all. I have a fully fenced in back yard that has plenty of room for the dogs to run and play in the sun and shade.
About: I’m a longtime pet owner and lover and would love to walk your pups or do drop-in’s! I’ve cared for dogs, puppies, cats, horses, birds and fish. Fully insured by PCA. I had my own pet sitting business in San Francisco. ~ Pets of my own: I had a racehorse named Wiz for 20 years, several doggies, two cats and a parrot! My parents used to have a show kennel and I helped raise the puppies. Now I just have my two pups and would love to help care for yours. I will bring a calm, friendly energy to your pets! I have a flexible schedule so can fairly easily get out for dogs walks and drop-ins. I work remotely so can fairly easily arrange to see your pets! I treat every pet as my own and leave owners’ homes clean and as I found them. I’m a quiet person and yoga teacher, too — so am very mindful.
