Farmhouse getaway near Nashville - hot tub & pool with plenty of space!

Introduction

Hi! My name is Jordan, and my husband Jason and I travel a TON. I travel part time for work in the healthcare field, Jason is a pilot and is often away from home, and we love to travel for fun together when time allows. It would make our trips SO much better to know our pets, plants, and house in general are being looked after while we're gone.

Home & location

We live on farmland half an hour from Nashville, TN. I was born & raised in Nashville, so I love being close enough to "home" without having to deal with the everyday bustle of the city. We have plenty of front & backyard, and our closest neighbors are the cows on the cow farm that surrounds our property! No need to worry about nosy neighbors - they can't even see you hanging out on the back deck, relaxing in the hot tub, or swimming in the pool. You'll have a queen guest room with en suite bathroom for your stay, access to the pool and brand new hot tub (weather permitting, of course), large smart TV in the living room with Sonos sound system throughout the main living area, full kitchen with most everything you need to make anything from gourmet meals to frozen pizza. We also have a home gym with a Peloton bike, Rogue squat rack, weight bench, and plenty of weights. Downtown Nashville is just half an hour away, so it's plenty close if you wanted to catch a concert at the Ryman or a Preds game at Bridgestone Arena. Springfield is the closest town to our house, and it has a surprisingly cute downtown area with boutiques, restaurants, and a well-maintained greenway. We do live about 45 minutes from the Nashville airport, so keep that in mind when considering your travel plans. I uber/lyft from the airport often & it's typically a $40-60 ride depending on time of day.

Responsibilities

Both Lexi and Gary are SUPER low maintenance. Lexi likes to go outside 2-3 times/day, and Gary joins her occasionally. They both are fairly well behaved when they're outside alone, but we do have to make sure Lexi doesn't venture too far & make her way into the cow pasture. Lexi gets fed twice a day, and Gary has food out all the time. They both drink from the pet fountain, so we just keep that full of water all the time. It would be great if you could water the plants while you're here if it's over a week - they really only need to be watered weekly (give or take). Other than that, we just ask that you tidy up after yourself & keep the house as clean as you found it!

I recently had the pleasure of house-sitting for Jason and Jordan in their beautiful home nestled on a picturesque farm in rural Tennessee, just north of Nashville. Taking care of their beloved pets, Gary the cat and Lexi the dog, was an absolute delight. Both Gary and Lexi are incredibly easygoing and such a joy to be around, making my time with them both relaxing and enjoyable. Jason and Jordan are exceptional homeowners—warm, welcoming, and always available to provide any assistance needed. Their home is not just comfortable but perfectly situated for those who appreciate the peace and charm of small-town living. The serene surroundings of the farm offered a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle, making this one of my most memorable house-sitting experiences. The entire sit went incredibly smoothly, and I would wholeheartedly recommend this opportunity to any sitter. It’s a true gem of a place to stay, with wonderful hosts and sweet, lovable pets. You’ll feel right at home and leave with a sense of tranquility that’s hard to find elsewhere.

I absolutely loved this sit! Jordan was a pleasure to communicate with, and the Welcome Guide was thorough and organized. The house and neighborhood are beautiful and idyllic--perfect for a quiet retreat and relaxation. And I'm not sure I've ever met two more sociable and sweet pets than Lexi and Gary. They couldn't have been easier to care for and love on all week! 5 Stars!

Lexi and Gary are so sweet! Fun, cuddly, and low-maintenance. I enjoyed spending time with them and watching their antics. Jordan was a great communicator before the sit. Though I did not have the opportunity to meet her because of travel schedules, Jason helped me get settled and introduced to Lexi and Gary. The room they let me use was quite comfortable, as well. I love that Jordan has so many plants - brings a bit of the great outdoors inside. :) Overall a great sit that I would be happy to do again when I'm passing through the Nashville area.

Cathy & Pete were wonderful house sitters! They took great care of our pets and our house, and we even got to have a lovely brunch together before they headed home. Absolutely would invite them to stay again!
