“Shawna was great! She was so sweet to our Emma and Louie. She sent lots of pictures and videos and kept us up to date on how they were doing. We would definitely use her again in the future!”
“I can’t recommend them enough. My husband and I were really not able to do much because Ryder has separation anxiety. Charlie and Casey sent us updates through out the day and our baby looked so relaxed and happy. I definitely will not use anyone else. Thanks Charlie and Casey.”
“We so appreciate Jeanie taking such good care of our dog Roady for a couple nights. She sent us lots of pictures to let us know how much he was enjoying his stay with her. He seemed right at home! This was our first time getting a sitter for one of our pets and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. If we are in the area and need a sitter again, we will definitely call on Jeanie!”
“Jessica loved on our fur babies like they were her own. We were in a bind moving from across the country and needed help fast. She gladly took in our goldens and treated them like they were own. This is a vacation for your dogs! I think they would have been fine staying forever;) She will now be our go to dog sitter!”
“Lucas was great! He was accommodating, kind, and Mia seemed super happy to have Lucas’s dog as a friend ❤️Also had a backyard where the dogs could run in and out of the house. Thanks!”
“Amazing! 10/10! I cannot recommend them enough. They were super sweet, made sure I was updated once a day, and treated Loki like a prince. I couldn’t ask for better.”
“Cy Cy, my cat, is a bit skittish and this was the first time we left her with a sitter. We had only been in Gatlinburg for a few hours when Frances sent a couple of pics of Cy Cy. She was on her back sleeping, just like she does at home, so she evidently felt safe. I really appreciate her care and anytime I need a sitter she will be my first call.”
“They were amazing!!! Such a loving family with tons of experience. I’d trust them with my kid if I had one haha! Dexter sent me photos and gave updates 24/7 without me having to ask, my dog had an amazing time there. 100% would recommend!!”
“Asia was truly an amazing and engaged sitter that treated our pup Ruby like she was her very own. She kept us updated daily with pictures and ensured we knew our Ruby was in good hands. We will be leaving our pup with Asia next time we are in the area. Thanks so much Asia.”
“Nicole was great! Super friendly, has a great home with a wonderful backyard. Our Frenchie had a great time with Nicole & her family. Our Frenchie takes special meds & Nicole was able to administer with no problem. We were out of the country & Nicole was still able to communicate via WhatsApp & still send us daily updates & pictures. She provides great care & we will definitely use her again. Very much recommend Nicole!”
“Kathy kept my mini Aussie for 4 days while I was out of town and cared for him as if he were her own! He was happy and tuckered out when I picked him up....a huge relief for me!! She is a gem and I would use her exclusively for my sweet pup!!”
“I had never used a dog sitter before. Caleb sent me frequent updates, along with short videos and photos. If I ever need a sitter again, he will definitely be my choice.”
About: I ensure the safety and well-being of animals while their owners are away. Responsibilities include feeding , walking , administering medications and companionship, reliable care. I pet sit to share my love for animals. It fits my daily routine by blending morning/evening walks with my own exercise and part-time work . Your fur-baby gets non-stop tail-wags, cozy couch snuggles, playful backyard romps, and scheduled snacks. I’ll send plenty of of cute photos to keep you smiling.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for practically my entire life. My household has reached its limit on pets but I would love to care and help out any pets I can. I’ve fostered with Young Williams many times. I love dogs of any ages! I’m currently stay at home and so I can give my full attention to any pets in my home! My own dogs are good companions and love friends I have a fenced in backyard and two dogs of my own, as well as a separate bedroom for any dogs in need of their own space. My dogs are crate trained and can be put away at any time to make another pup feel welcome and calmed! Routine is big in this house and always makes the animals feel better.
“Autumn is the best! She was super flexible with us as our dog sitting needs changed when our travel plans changed. Most importantly, however, she took very good care of our Captain Woofy. Autumn sent frequent updates and carefully followed all of our instructions. Notably, we were surprised that he didn't go crazy when he first saw us when we picked him up and we are pretty sure that's because he loved staying at Autumn's. Highly recommended!”
“They took care of both our doggies for a week. Great communication with updates. I could tell they were getting the attention they needed. They responded immediately every time I asked how they were doing. That’s important! Also, the photos that they sent were nice to see that they were doing well. Thank you!!”
“Brooke was a wonderful dog sitter for my 16 year old Papillon! I was nervous to leave my baby with someone as she is older and has to take medication 3x a day, but I felt comfortable leaving her with Brooke. She was very communicative and gave me daily reports and photos. My dog even made her first cat friend as one of Brooke’s kitties befriended my dog during her stay. It made me happy to know that my dog Lucia was in a safe and happy home with a responsible and caring sitter.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Alder Springs home-away-from-home, 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 Alder Springs.
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.
You and your Alder Springs 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 , 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 .
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.
