“Bethany took excellent care of our Pepper. I never worried while on vacation. Her family all work together to make sure all your pets needs are accomplished. I will definitely use them again.”
“Shelley did a great job taking care of my dog. My dog has a lot of anxiety in new places and with new people and Shelley did an incredible job reading body language and making my dog feel more comfortable than I have ever seen her in a new place. I would definitely trust Shelley to care for my dog again.”
“Christina was amazing with my 3 pups! She messaged me everyday and sent photos to let me know they were doing good. I was very confident being our of the country knowing my babies were in good hands. Will definitely be booking again through her!!”
“I always know that Dexter and Charlie will be well cared for while I’m away and treated just like family. They love playing with and sleeping with the other dogs and are always happy and tired by the time I pick them up. I receive wonderful updates every day, including pictures and videos which show my babies having the time of their lives!”
“We had such a wonderful experience! This was our first time leaving our dog with someone since we adopted him, so I was definitely nervous about leaving him for 36 hours. She was incredibly kind, caring, and reassuring throughout his stay, which made me feel so much more comfortable. She sent us pictures and updates, and she was always so quick to respond whenever I had a question. It was such a relief to see him happy and well cared for while we were away. You can really tell that she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. I’m so glad we chose her to take care of our dog, and we would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to look after their pup! ❤️🐾”
“I cannot say enough good things! my puppies had a safe and private place where they were secure and comfortable. I got photos and updates letting me know how they were doing. When we had a bit of a car problem and our pick up time changed unexpectedly - Sharon was gracious and understanding Was so glad the dogs safe and not sitting on the side of the road while we figured out tge issue. Highly recommend!”
“Jenn and Derek took real good care of Penny while I was visiting TN . Penny had a blast. She was safe and well cared. I received updates on her frequently including pictures of her and the activities she did. She looked like she was home. Great job. Well done. I would recommend your services. Thank you Jenn and Derek. Great team work.”

We were very nervous about leaving her anywhere and we now can go on trips since we found the best sitter’s in Cookeville . Already planning her next stay .she’s never been around dogs and their own dogs also were so gentle and kind tords her . I can’t say enough great things about the way they treated our pup !! We could not have had a better experience!! Thank you again Kristen and Steven . And Biscuit is missing you all .”
About: I’ve had pets as long as I can remember. I currently have 2 dogs and 4 cats, all rescues. I have also rescued numerous animals and nursed them back to health. I work from home, so you don’t have to worry about your pet getting lonely! I have experience with puppies, kittens, and senior pets. I am able to administer medication orally, topically, and via injection. I look forward to taking care of your pet(s) as if they were my own as you enjoy your vacation! I work from home and have plenty of time to drop in to feed your pet, administer any medication they may need, as well as play with them to work out their energy! I treat every pet like they’re my own when pet sitting. I can either stop in real quick if that’s what you and your pet are most comfortable with, or stay longer to keep them a bit of company.
“Regina was so helpful. I had a very late notice request, and Regina was willing to work with me to make sure my doggy was well taken care of. Made sure to send me pics and videos of my dog. 10/10 would recommend and will be using her again!!! Thank you so much, Regina!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 15 years old. I looked after a lot of my family's pets while they were on vacation. And I washed my two dogs every single day. My dogs are like my kids. They're my whole world! First thing in the morning and last thing at night is taking care of them. I have a million toys on the ground at any given time and comfy furniture to sleep on. My dogs also get snack time twice a day.
About: I have always been surrounded by dogs since birth. Whether it was in my own home or the home of friends and family I have always loved and cared for all kinds of pets. from dogs to snakes to parrots, I have a special love for all kinds of animals and am quick to show my love to any I pass. I am outgoing and love to be outdoors so I love energetic pets who like to run and be in God's nature. I am a project manager in Baxter, TN and also an online MBA student at TN Tech. Although I work full time, I am able to take long breaks and my wife is a great partner who can help take care of them as well! I also have free weekends and would love to enjoy them with furry friends! I have a great outdoor space beside my apartment that is perfect for a dog’s energy. I also would gladly go to dog parks or keep them leashed on a walk if they are untrained for open spaces. I have a lovely wife who loved dogs, and neighborhood friends who have dogs of their own if they would like to be social. If they need to be crated that is also perfectly fine!
“Went way past my expectations as a new customer! She's amazing sent photos of my baby girl playing etc! True pleasure to be working with! Rover scored a great sitter!!! Hands down!”
“Drew is THE BEST! I got lots of pics and I love that he fits in well with her other pets. I love that Walter is never home alone and how happy he is when he stays 10 out of 10 DO recommend ❤️”
“Izabella and her family were so good to our pom Sammy. He got a lot of attention and play time with her kids, which would have made him feel right at home, plus her own dogs were very sweet. They were very accommodating and gave us lots of updates. 10/10 for not having to worry about our sweet boy while we were on vacation.”

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 Bethesda 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 Bethesda.
<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 Bethesda 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.
