“Janet was very gentle and welcoming to my dog in her home. She made her comfortable as my dog was anxious at first. She kept me informed as to how she was doing doing. I would trust her with Janet again.”
“Nicole was absolutely wonderful with Atlas! She was incredibly caring and attentive to his needs, and I loved that she sent me updates throughout his stay. It made such a difference being able to see him happy and settled, giving me 100% confident that he was in great hands and being well taken care of the entire time! 🤍 Would recommend and book again.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life I have been a dog sitter for almost 6 years now I take care all kinds of dogs and cats not age requirement. I currently don't have a job so I'm free mostly during the week other than Wednesday night. Weekends I'm usually busy busy still have to time to check on the dogs or cats if needed. When I walk my dogs I always have good spatial awareness and I'm always carrying pepper spray I also don't walk dogs at night for their safety.
“Ms. Hope was easy to coordinate with for a last minute boarding request. Didn't sweat the small stuff, but made sure she understood our normal routine & other important details. Her home and yard are maintained well & comfortable. Meeting her dog, Gravy, will tell you all you need to know about your pet’s stay - Gravy is super well cared for, healthy, and happy. Very relaxed, sweet, checked out Lola politely (one of the few times a dog larger than her didn’t trample her, which was really nice). All a reflection of Ms. Hope’s care. Much appreciated.”
“Our 2 crazy hounds were happy with Justin. They are a lot to handle but he had no problems. Tater does not do well in a boarding facility, but he was his normal self when picked up from Justin.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments for years. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and give their pets real attention and love. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, shy pets, and senior animals that need extra patience. I focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and on their routine while you’re away. I work during the night but I’m available for pet care in the mornings, evenings, and full availability on my days off. I can do drop-ins, walks, and extended care after work hours and weekends. I’m flexible and open to last-minute bookings when needed. I provide a safe, clean, and calm apartment environment where your pet will always be supervised. I prioritize regular walks, playtime, and sticking to your pet’s routine so they feel at home. I pay close attention to safety, behavior, and comfort, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions or crate if needed. Your pet will be treated like family while in my care.
About: Since I was 12 I’ve cared for the family pets, including dogs, cats, birds and fish. My friends have trusted me with their pups while away on vacation and their feline pets too. I’m currently working from home, From 8am to 5pm. So I do have a lot of time throughout the day and weekends. This part time job would be just perfect for me. I have fence patio with grass, I live in a townhome so I do have enough space. There’s also a lot of grass around my complex where I can take them for walks.
“Fantastic experience! She took such good care of our sweet pup. Great pics, frequent updates and communication. Super flexible and easy to work with! Made our first time using Rover wonderful? Thanks so much.”

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 Covington home-away-from-home, 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 Covington.
<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 Covington 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 , 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 .
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.
