About: I have taken care of my own fur babies since I was a child. I'm also a mother to four children, ages 19, 18, 7, and 6. Additionally, I've been a nurse for over 15 years. Caring for others (human or fur animals), is in my blood! I live in a 2/2 apartment, with a nice dog park. I do own one female, Toy Australian Shepherd, and she has been spayed and vaccinated. My two older children have moved out, so it's my husband and our smaller kiddos. I work remotely, so I'm able to be with your fur babies almost all the time! I can walk them every few hours and keep them fed/watered throughout the day. Lots of time for play and cuddles, too! I live in an apartment, but we have a nice dog park to allow your pup to run and play. I will walk your pup on a leash at all times. If he/she is crate trained, please be sure to bring their crate with them.

About: My journey in veterinary medicine began when I was just a freshman in high school, working as a kennel technician! By my senior year, I had earned three veterinary assistant certifications, turning my lifelong passion for animals into a career. Today, I’m the proud owner of Ivey Lane Pet Sitting & Grooming, where I dedicate my time to providing professional, compassionate care for your pets! I firmly believe that education and experience matter when choosing someone to care for your animals. My background in veterinary medicine allows me to recognize signs of illness, respond to emergencies, and provide an extra level of care and peace of mind. Because pet sitting is more than just feeding and loving your pets. It’s knowing what to do when something goes wrong. 🐾❤️ I work full time as a pet sitter and groomer, I work around your babies schedule! 24/7 pet care is my middle name <3 I can help in any home environment you keep your pets in, with or without a fence! Working in a vet clinic has given me experience in proper medication handling (oral and injectable), grooming skills, working with animals of all temperaments, CPR training and dealing with animals in crisis. Rest assured your baby is safe with me!

“Jasmine was an excellent service provider taking care of our GSP while we were on vacation. She did a great job keeping us updated with messages, photos, and videos to give us peace of mind that our dog was having as much fun as we were while we were away. We also appreciated her flexibility on our start/end dates when we needed to make some last minute changes. Thanks so much!”

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and family pets since I was 10 years old, giving me over 30 years of hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes — from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and care. I can handle daily walks, feedings, playtime, and bathing, and I treat every pet like a beloved member of the family. work full-time but usually finish by 3pm, which gives me plenty of time for afternoon and evening pet care. I’m fully available all day on Thursdays and Sundays, and can also provide weekend boarding. I have a safe home environment and a sweet toy poodle who enjoys walks and companionship. Pets in my care get regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I can also crate your dog if needed and always treat them like part of the family.

DeRee and Dustin treated my dogs as part of their family. They have a large, dog-friendly home with a very large fenced in yard for outdoor play. It's an excellent set-up, and they are true dog people- very kind, knowledgeable, and easy going animal lovers. I had to leave my fur babies for eight long days, for the first time ever, and I greatly appreciated their genuine loving care and the daily updates, photos and videos they sent me. I will definitely use DeRee and Dustin again the next time I travel and I highly recommend them.

Deree and her husband were wonderful with our English bulldog, Parker! She’s not even a year old, so it meant a lot knowing they took extra care with her and paid attention to her needs as she can be very hyper at times and needs some re direction. I felt completely at ease the entire time knowing she was in such good hands. I forgot to pack enough food for the second day, and they stepped in without hesitation to make sure she was fed and well taken care of, which I really appreciated. Their yard is nice and fully fenced in, making it a safe and fun space for the dogs to play. Parker clearly had a great time she slept the entire day when she got home! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl. We will definitely be using you again!

DeRee and her husband and are very experienced, capable and loving dog keepers. My pups had plenty of love, attention, and exercise. Their home and property are set up well for dogs. Her own dogs are very friendly and welcomed mine into their pack. I will be using her again soon.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
