“My pups love it here! They are well cared for, and it is definitely their home away from home because Kristy makes sure it feels that way! We will definitely book her again and again :D”
“Oh my gosh such a wonderful person. Not only did she send me updates, she was asking about how my daughter was. She is such a blessing. I would highly recommend her and would definitely be sending Peter there again.”
“We are so glad we found Nicole and Dexter! We were out of the country for three weeks and a bit anxious to leave our dog behind but we had a very good feeling during the meet and greet and the boarding experience with them was perfect! We got daily updates and pictures, they took great care of her during those three weeks and Yuki seemed really comfortable at their lovely and welcoming home. We definitely will be booking with them again!”
“Elizabeth has always been great and very accommodating! Her family has been a great place for us to leave our dog Lexi. We have left our dog there multiple times and will definitely again when we are back in the area.”
“First time Rover user here and couldn’t have asked for anything better with Cassy. She took amazing care of my senior lab. He looked like he had the best time and got lots of love and play time. My daily pictures and videos allowed me to actually enjoy my vacation knowing my pup was in good care. Would recommend to anyone.”
“Kayla and her husband were great, easy to communicate and deal with. We felt Micah and Luna were in great hands, and we received daily updates and pictures. We won't forget what for us was the highlight of their stay, which was seeing them interact with Kayla's baby daughter! It was heart-melting cute! We will definitely reach out to her for any future needs :)”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 6 and have owned or fostered 4+ cats, 3+ dogs, a squirrel, a bird, and multiple fish. My experience includes petsitting, dog walking, and other care-related jobs, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of species and personalities. I’m extremely energetic and focus on actual interaction: long walks, active play, and making sure pets feel stimulated and happy rather than just supervised. This hands-on background helps me adapt quickly and give every animal genuine attention and care. My current class schedule (subject to change each semester) is: - Monday/Friday: 3–4 pm - Tuesday/Thursday: 11 am–4 pm - Wednesday: 10 am–4 pm Outside of those blocks I’m flexible and can fit pet care into mornings, evenings, weekends, and open weekday windows. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already prioritize being active outdoors and spending time with animals. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with easy access to the river walk, greenway, campus, and downtown, which are perfect for walks and outdoor time. Whether in my home or a client’s, I focus on a secure, calm environment, consistent routines, and active engagement so pets feel safe and happy. My long history of caring for animals (plus jobs that required responsibility and trust) means I treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and grew up always having dogs. I've had pets of my own for over 20 years and currently have two small dogs who are very much part of our family. I've also enjoyed caring for family members' dogs over the years. While I'm newer to caring for other people's pets, I'm experienced with the love, patience, and attention dogs need to feel safe and comfortable. I am married and have 2 teenagers who also love dogs. I will treat your dog like one of our own and provide a loving, welcoming home with plenty of attention and care. My goal is to make your dog's stay feel like a home away from home! I am currently working full-time at a middle school that is 7 minutes away from home. I am able to leave work during the day for restroom breaks. I am home on the weekends and available during most Knox County School holiday breaks. I do not have a fenced-in yard. I take both of my dogs out on a leash. I am also able to take dogs on walks. I live in a neighborhood with little traffic. I have gates up in our home that keep dogs separated, if needed. My dogs stay in the laundry room with a gate when I am not home. I have a medium-sized mudroom off of my kitchen that I plan to keep any dog I board while I am outside of the home. I can provide a dog bed, toys, and water when I am away. I am also able to use a crate if preferred. I let our dogs sleep with me and will do the same for you, if that is preferred. I offer a loving home environment with personalized attention. I am happy to provide pictures and daily updates. I love dogs, and I can't wait to offer playtime and companionship to your pets.
About: Hello my name is Sarah! I have been pet sitting for 13 years. I worked at a vet clinic for a while and have a passion for all things animals from cats and dogs to reptiles and farm animals. I also worked on a ranch for about 3 years in Texas and cared for and helped train K9 dogs, so I definitely have some experience to give in that department if needed. Since I worked at a vet clinic I am also capable of administrating medicine if required as well. I hope this finds you well and you reach out to me to care for your furbabies! Hope to hear from you soon! I’m currently trying to make this my full time so I’m available when needed and have plenty of time to play and care for your furbabies! I will only care for pets in their own home as to not stress them out with unfamiliar territory and animals. They will be well cared for and get lots of walks, play time, and any additional care needs or instructions that you may want or need! I do require written care instructions as to have full communication of what is needed, I have found that it’s best for all parties just incase anything is not talked over during our initial meeting or conversations.
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a child, and have always begged my parents for a cat! I have experience pet sitting both dogs and cats, and have been in the business for more than 5 years! I can administer medicine, and any special care your animal might need. I’m happy to accommodate! I am a college student who has class MWF until 1:30! After that, I have the rest of the day to spend with your pet! I live in an apartment with grass all along the property. There is plenty of space for walks, and any exercise your pet might need!
“Khasia did a great job taking care of Josie and Cricket. She was responsive to my messages and gave feedback for any concerns that I had (e.g., were they adjusting to the new dog food?). She figured out their personalities right away which made me feel much more at ease! We will definitely consider having Khasia take care of our furbabies in the future.”
“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!”
“The absolute best! I was a little nervous leaving Mable, but Julianne kept me updated and sent lots of amazing pictures! So thankful for them! Mable came home and slept all afternoon from all the fun she had!”

Zoe was fantastic! I got frequent updates with photos, and she was always super responsive to texts. Elsa can be fairly aloof, but I know she was comfortable because she laid next to Zoe on the couch - which she rarely does with anyone but us. She also got daily walks. Will definitely book 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.
94% of sitters in Arminda 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 Arminda 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 Arminda.
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 Arminda. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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 Arminda 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.
