“We decided to not take our pups to Jeep Invasion at the last minute. Vickie and Charlie were great! Our pups were well taken care of! They came home tired! We will definitely be rebooking when we need another sitter!”
“Maddie was great! I am very particular where I board my dog, and not a big fan of large boarding facilities. Maddie’s place takes up to 10 dogs at a time so I know he is being watched well. Additionally, my dog had some special drinking instructions and she follow through on it. I would use her again to watch my fur child!”
“Leeann is fantastic! We are so lucky to have found her. Indy absolutely loved being there with other Rover friends and the farm animals. She will definitely be our go to sitter when we go out of town.”
“10/10 recommend Jenny and her family! They were able to make last minute accommodations for my pit mix. She had a great time at her house full of play time and cuddles. Jenny sent me pictures and was great at communicating with me. Can’t wait to book with her again.”
“We were very pleased with Dana, she sent pics of Bailey and kept us informed on how he was doing, from the pics that she sent to us, Bailey looked right at home and happy. Dana and her family took excellent care of our Bailey. We will definitely rebook with Dana if she’d love to have him back!”
About: I was an accredited dog trainer with Petsmart. Now I am a veterinary assistant in school to be a veterinary technician. I have kennel experience and I foster dogs from rescues and shelters. I begin my new job July 6th so I am open to board/house sit/train. I will be working 8am-5pm at the local animal shelter as the veterinary assistant. So I can also train dogs after work. I was the dog trainer at Petsmart I also worked home health care for many years. I was a cna for 16 years prior to switching to dog training. I had a change of heart and decided to change to the career I wanted to do the most which was work with dogs. I am a dog trainer and we can do in home training or meet at the park for training. No flexi leads we can use a 20 foot training leash if having room to run is an issue for you.
“We could not have dreamed of a better place for Reese to stay while we traveled! From our initial Meet and Greet, we could see that Reese already had made good friends. We received daily updates on how our girl was doing, along with photos and videos, giving us peace of mind, knowing she was having the best time in a great home!”
“Penny was so thoughtful and caring towards Sammy and her needs. Penny communicated often with plenty of updates and photos.Sammy had such a great time and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Thank you, Meredith! We cannot say enough good things about our experience. Meredith was so accommodating as our travel plans kept changing. She kept us updated with frequent pictures and messages, as she understood we were nervous leaving our little dog with a stranger. We will use her again and highly recommend her services!”
“This was my first time using this kind of service. I needed someone to watch my dog while I traveled out of state. Alexa was great with taking care of my dog and kept me well informed on a daily basis. Highly recommend!”
“Kristi took amazing care of Louie! She was able to provide regular updates and photos which I greatly appreciated! Would 100% recommend Kristi if you need a safe place for your pup!”
“This was our first time using Rover! Danita was absolutely awesome with Bandit. We can’t say enough good things about her! She sent us daily updates and pictures! She took Bandit on walks and he got plenty of exercise and fresh air. We will definitely use her again!”
“Tabatha took great care of our dogs Buddy and Tootsie for several days, even remembering to give them the Christmas present we left and took pictures for us. Her yard was perfect for them as there was plenty of room to run. When we returned to pick them up, they looked at us and kept running around the yard wanting to stay a little longer. :-)”
“Kayla was wonderful! She was extremely responsive and flexible with our crazy football game-day schedule, and so sweet and caring with Buddy. We really appreciated her and would definitely book with her again! 🐾🧡”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
93% of sitters in Acorn can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Acorn home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Acorn.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Acorn. On Rover:

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Acorn sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
