She sent updates and pictures, and communicated with us regularly while we were away. We will definitely have her watch Marley again!”
“Mark was great with my dog! He has a nice clean house with spacious yard, and he's in a nice neighborhood for easy safe walks. He wanted to make sure he understood how to best take care of my dog by asking thoughtful questions, even including how she liked to be pet. I feed my dog food that stays frozen and requires refrigeration and he was totally good with all of that. While I was away he sent me lots of pictures so I knew she was safe and happy.

He is an excellent communicator, and if you want your dog to have some extra love while you're out of town, Mark is an excellent choice. I will definitely be booking with him again.”

About: I am an energetic, patient animal lover with experience caring for pets across all ages, sizes, and activity levels. I enjoy accommodating the quirks specific to your pet and strive to create a "home away from home" environment with my care. I have a dog and two cats - my pets are my everything. I can't wait to meet your baby!

“Hailey took excellent care of our kitties including special care of our diabetic cat! Everyone got lots of love as shown by the pictures she sent us with each visit and she really went above and beyond to take care of things while we traveled. She gave us great piece of mind knowing that a true animal lover and caregiver were there for us and our beloved babies. So grateful!”
“Yan did a great job with my two cats! One of my cats is really particular about things and she adjusted great to his needs. So so happy with her! I could travel with the peace of mind that my babies were well taken care of! Highly recommend, especially for owners with more particular cats!”
“I can't say enough about what great care was given to my cats, myself and my property. One of my cats is diabetic so I needed twice a day scheduled visits. Riley was great! The communication was outstanding. I came home to two happy cats AND Riley had taken the time to clean up any cat messes, including washing their food dishes. I am so thankful and will definitely be using them again.”
“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!”
About: I've taken care of multiple kittens, caring for them until they became grandparents. Through these interactions, I learned how to administer different types of medication via pills and shots. I also love playing with them and making sure they get their daily workout.
“Yea, I found a new pet sitter! My previous pet sitter, who I loved, recently retired from pet sitting so I was left with the task of finding a replacement who could fill her shoes. I found that and more with Sarah! She did an awesome job taking care of my cat Smokey. Very thorough and professional covering all the needed bases. I highly recommend her if you're looking!”
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!

“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.”

“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!”
“I am so grateful for Allison and the way things just happened to align in short time given that I was traveling from out of state and needed day care for my dog. Allison was so incredibly warm, supportive and sensitive to my dogs needs, and communicated throughout the two days of care she provided. Would absolutely recommend her and prioritize her when I roll through town again!”
“So thankful for Michelle! Needed help last minute and she took my dog in for daycare, and my dog had a wonderful time. Michelle had a very nice set up for watching the fur babies: in house space, fenced backyard and a doggie door. She is home and can be there for them which is fabulous! My baby will be coming back to Michelle!”
“Alyssa not only saved us with short booking, it was evident she was skilled at working with dogs. Her furry loved one showed great disciple and we knew immediately she was gong to care for our loved one. We came into Nashville from Pennsylvania and couldn't have felt more comfortable.

We'll definitely be looking you up again when we are back in town!”

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. I currently work remote and have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate any needs of an animal in my care. Daily walks are part of my routine regardless of the weather. I live in a home that has been converted into a duplex tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. I have a balcony allowing for outside access for bird watching or just plain old barking. I have a large backyard but not fenced. Dog beds in every room. Every animal in my care is like family meaning no couch or bed is off limits. I often plan my daily outings to allow for my animals to come with me or spend limited time alone.
“Sally is the epitome of what one could hope for when seeking doggie day care. I was traveling through Nashville and needed my pup cared for. She not only accommodated my last minute booking, she ensured he was comfy, exercised and loved. He’s a senior dog and pretty attached to me but he was putty in her hands. I highly recommend Sally and will certainly see her again when I come through Nashville!”

“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!”
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.
“Keegan is exceptionally gifted with animals. She bonded immediately with our Sheltie Dani, whom she walked all summer. In fact he looked for her first thing when he got out of his crate. Having grown up on a ranch, she has a wealth of information about animals. This proved extremely helpful because at just over a year old, Dani is still a puppy. She conscientiously told us anything unusual that he did, e.g. yesterday he surreptitiously ate a small rock, typical puppy behavior. She came back everyday with stories of Dani’s antics (he loves to chase dragon flies!), showing how she lets animals into her heart. Keegan is extraordinary. We hate to see her go back to college in OK. We and Dani look forward to more walks when she comes home from school at the holidays!”
“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.”

“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: I've been watching my sisters and neighbors pup for 5 years, which helped me learn how to take care of dogs no matter the age nor size. I'm also quick to adapt to whatever routine your furry friends require and adore them with the love they need. I'm currently working part time with low weekly hours so I can easily adapt your needed schedule into mines. I can also check on them anytime during the weekends if called for. One way I can make sure the feel safe and trusted is sticking to there schedule as close as possible, making sure they are feed on time, making sure they have fresh water, providing exercise and playtime, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I'll also make sure to keep owners updated with photos and inform them with messages.
“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: I have been taking care of all types of animals my whole life! I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 10, and I was a pre-veterinary medicine major in college (I only didn’t go to vet school because I do music). My education gives me a lot of helpful knowledge to be able to take the best care of your fur babies! I currently have two dogs of my own, so I am great at managing my routine around their needs and will do so for yours as well. I also have help with mine whenever I am booked to help someone else, so everyone gets full attention. I will gladly follow any and all rules and special requests you have for your babies! Each animal is different and deserves special attention, and I will always make sure they are well taken care of as well as your home and your space.
About: I focus on consistent routines, safety, and individualized attention. Experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and high-energy breeds. I prioritize structure, comfort, and clear communication so you can feel confident your dog is in reliable hands. Pet care fits smoothly into my day — I provide scheduled walks, playtime, and attention while keeping routines consistent. Puppies, seniors, or special-needs dogs all get the extra care they need. I follow your dog’s routine for walks, play, meals, and rest, whether in your home or mine. Puppies and seniors get extra care, and every pet gets a safe, happy, and loving environment while you’re away.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was two years old. I grew up around them, taking care of my family’s pups as well as dogs around the neighborhood (something I do to this day!) and I know how to care for them. From cleaning up any messes to vet visits, to walks and playtime, I know how to care for animals that need it and how to establish trusting relationships with new ones! I’m currently on leave from my job, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pets to make sure they get the love and care they need! I am accustomed to crating dogs as needed, I monitor food closely and ensure that it is never anywhere that the animals can access, and I always make sure that if they’re outside, that I am with them. I’m careful to make sure all doors and windows are closed as well to avoid any escape attempts!
