“River, my pit-mix, really liked staying with Carrie and her pets. Carrie provided daily updates with pics. Turns out River became kinda attached to Carrie's husband. I would use Carrie's boarding service again if available.”

“Erika and Erik were absolutely incredible! They accommodated us last minute when we needed someone to watch our sweet pup, and they went above and beyond to send us updates and pictures of him too! We can tell he was well loved and cared for, and got so much attention! Will definitely be using them in the future!”

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely care about every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient with shy dogs, energetic enough to keep active pups entertained, and attentive to senior dogs who may need extra care and a slower pace. I provide plenty of updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your fur baby. Since I don’t currently work outside the home, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine and allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stick closely to their normal routine, and accommodate different care needs, whether that’s daytime visits, evening care, or overnight stays. I enjoy being hands-on with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I have 3 very friendly puppies to keep your pup entertained. If caring for pets in my home, safety comes first. I keep the environment clean, secure, and supervised, and I make sure introductions with other animals are handled carefully if needed. I always prioritize a calm environment, safe play, and making sure each pet has a comfortable place to rest.

“Our pups really enjoyed their stay with Nicole. She took excellent care of them. Ginger is very nervous about thunderstorms and when it thundered during their stay, Nicole got a pillow and laid down on the floor with Ginger to calm her down. She also keep us well informed with updates and pictures. I actually think Ginger was actually trying to convince Nicole go home with her.”

About: Hello! I’m a life long animal lover and owner who understands that every furry friend has their own specific needs. Whatever your pet needs, I’m always happy to accommodate and ensure they feel safe, happy, and taken care of. I’ve taken care of family and friends animals all my life. From bunnies to Saint Bernard’s I’ve seen just about everything. I’m a college student that lives close to campus, so even with classes, I’ll be able to ensure your furry friend is taken care of! I am currently a softball player in college. While my weekdays can be a little busy, I live close to campus and have few in-person classes. Because of softball practice, I am not home for 3-4 hours most afternoons. I have an open yard and live walking distance from the Pulaski dog park. Your pet will have inside and outside time with ample opportunities to play, potty, and relax. I have a 2 year old female Lab in the home that loves to play and is quite energetic. Your pet will be cared for as one of my own and will be blessed with toys, treats, company, and love. I will openly accommodate your pets needs as I know every pet is different.

About: I have taken care of many different breeds of dogs over the years. I love being outdoors, weather permitting of course haha. I have personal experience with special needs dogs. My previous Australian Shepard had a severe heart murmur and idiopathic epilepsy. He was on several medications, several times a day. I administered all medications as well. I currently have an Australian Shepard that loves new furry friends. I trained my first Aussie and currently train with my boy daily. You can trust that your fur baby will be in great hands the entire time! Video and photo updates will always be available 🧡 I work full time from home Monday-Thursday until 5:30pm and 4 hours on Fridays. I am typically free Friday afternoon through Sunday. If your fur baby stays with me he/she will have plenty of play time and lovins all day😊. My home offers a large fenced in back yard, a friendly aussie to play with, plenty of outside time(weather permitting) and of course lots of lovins! Your fur baby can be crated if that is preferred.

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 Alexander Springs 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 Alexander 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 Alexander 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 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.
