“Lorna provided excellent care for my fur baby. She sent lots of pictures of my girl relaxing and enjoying the special attention that Lorna provided. I will definitely be using Lorna for any boarding needs in the future.”
“Wouldn't want to leave our Mimi with anyone else while we are traveling!!! Mimi is right at home in Jeff and Shirley's house. She gets excited going, and to see Buddy and there is no emotional guilt from her when we pick her up and bring her home. As many know, sometimes your pet is broody and ignores you. The fact that she does not do that, means she has been well looked after!!! We have just booked our 4th stay for Mimi with Jeff and Shirley. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a home from home type of atmosphere. Definitely a 5-star rating!!!!”
“Carly was excellent with my Yorkie. I’m nervous about leaving him places because he gets so freaked out. She set my mind at ease with her texts and pictures and overall attention given to my dog.”
“We love that our puppies are loved by Jennifer, Mark, and their kids. You can tell our dogs feel at home with them. We also love that Jennifer sends photos and updates daily.”
“This was Koda’s second stay at Samantha’s place. Koda has a blast with her! Samantha is amazing to communicate with and I feel 100% comfortable leaving Koda with her. She will be our go-to every time we need someone. I highly recommend trusting Samantha with your fur baby!”
“Amy and Jason are amazing!! Very welcoming!! Prepared; Mochi is part of their family when there, they treat her as one of their own! Could not have asked for more…Mochi returns home very calm and gets back into real life at home quickly. Thank you! If you are hesitant; don’t be!!”
“Thank you so much, Jennifer! My puppy did great while with Jennifer and she sent photos and videos. He also was having some stomach issues and she got him some new food. Thank you again!! :) Would definitely book again!!”
“At first you know, I was really skeptical and somebody watching my dogs. But this lady did a fantastic job. My dogs got to play all day. They got walks plus baths. My dog both really liked her and my female dog is usually skeptical on new people. She did an amazing job and I couldn’t ask for a better person to watch my dogs for me. I found my main person.”

I am committed to providing dependable, compassionate, and attentive care, treating every pet with the same kindness and respect I would give my own. As a retiree, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable, attentive pet care and accommodate your pet’s individual needs and routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I will carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and individual needs, and I will provide patient, loving, and attentive care. I will also respect your home and keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you are away.
“Hannah and her family are so sweet! Cece really enjoys her time with them! We got the perfect amount of pictures and updates through out her stay. We will use Hannah every time we can from now on.”
“Elizabeth last minute took my request to watch my brand new puppy. I really needed to work out of town after Christmas expenses. She immediately replied back and was accommodating due to this last minute decision. She sent me updates pictures and always replied immediately when I checked in. Thank you again Elizabeth for taking such good care of my Henry!”
“Sabrina was Great will Miss Ellie!! She was attentive and flexible to her needs. I received great feedback along with pictures and videos while I was away. Ellie was running and playing when I arrived to pick her up! Love Miss Sabrina!!!”
“Samuel and Erica were great! I got lots of pictures and feedback. Samuel and Erica have Lana well trained as others have stated, and it’s evident. Moose settled in with them pretty quickly. Moose is small and didn’t want to play. They both learned to peacefully co-exist just as Samuel and Erica have experienced with other small pups. I highly recommend them!”
“Thomas was AMAZING! He took such great care of our sweet Luna! He sent updates every day which we really appreciated when leaving Luna with someone! He was very responsive and communicated promptly! I definitely recommend Thomas and will be booking with him again!”
“Natalie was amazing! Super nice, knowledgeable about dogs and boarding, and so welcoming! Our doggo Jordi took a liking to her immediately and we were so happy to leave him in the care of a loving family instead of a nameless/faceless boarding facility. Jordi only stayed one night, but we received multiple photos and videos and messages about his activities and it was such a relief knowing he was so well cared for. We will definitely use Natalie to board Jordi in the future when the need arises again and we will be recommending her to any friends in need of pet sitting as well. Thank you so much, Natalie!”
“She made my separation from my baby a lot easier with plenty of videos and text. Chubbs seemed very happy and very well taken care of. I would highly recommend her. She is also a very nice and easy person to deal with.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 118 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Afton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
100% of sitters in Afton 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 Afton 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 Afton.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Afton 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.
