“Krystal was absolutely amazing! I had a cross-country move during which everything that could go wrong DID go wrong. Krystal was compassionate and flexible, and the one thing I didn’t have to worry about was whether Max was safe and well cared for. He is a city cat, so he gained a new appreciation for chicken watching, and her kiddos kept him snuggled and loved. They are a good distance from my new home, but I will make the trip for Krystal to keep him when I go out of town. She and her family were a true blessing when I needed help caring for Max. I will always be grateful.”

“We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Brooke! I loved the pictures and videos she sent each day, and my dog absolutely enjoyed himself in her care. She was incredibly sweet and reassuring, and she was great with my dog, Apollo. She was always quick to respond and sent plenty of updates. 10/10 would recommend, and we plan to use her services in the future!”

“KRISTI T- Peppa and Sheba LOVED their 4 day vacation with you. Thanks for your kind attention to them and me. Your doggie door and easy access backyard was perfect for my girls 😜. I’m so glad they got along with your kitties! I love that you work from home - they got more attention from you than at home. We will definitely be asking you again to have them back.”

“This was my first time leaving my two Maltese dogs overnight, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She went above and beyond from start to finish—constantly sending videos and pictures that gave me total peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and it really showed how much she cares. One of my favorite touches was receiving a “good morning” video from my dogs—it meant a lot and made me feel connected even while I was away. Her home is clearly set up to care for dogs, safe, clean, and welcoming. On top of that, the location is absolutely beautiful, which made the whole experience even better. I highly recommend her without any doubt. If you’re nervous about leaving your pets, she’s exactly the kind of sitter you want.”

“Jeff and Shirley once again delivered a worry free weekend vacation for us. They greeted us and our dogs with warm welcome. We can see how exited our dogs got when they saw Shirley, Bonnie and Wesley immediately ran up to her and started licking her legs to show affection, true a testament that they really enjoyed and developed a relationship with our little fur babies. I highly recommended Jeff and Shirley because they do take care of our dogs as there own. Thank you for making our vacation hassle free and for taking care of our kids.”

“We had to travel overseas and we needed someone to look after our furbaby for over a month period while we were gone. I know it was a big commitment for her but Lauryn went above and beyond taking care of my dog. She sent us videos, pictures throughout and also checked with me for anything unusual. I could feel at ease even when I was away for so long. Thank you so much Lauryn. Dalgu is already looking forward to her next stay with you. 😁”

About: Love all animals! Big and small! Love to go on walks and let them have fun and play! I like to take pictures of them as well, and keep you updated along the way! I am self employed so I have a very flexible schedule and can manage my time and make sure I am going to be available when I say I am and be there to attend to the pets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, needs, and any special instructions before their stay or visit. I understand that every pet is different and I am willing to accommodate each and every need they may have.

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 Cherokee 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 Cherokee.

<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 Cherokee 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.
