About: I currently have a bloodhound and 4 cats, as well as a foster dog. My had my last dog for 15 years, so I am very experienced in senior dog care. Old doggos have a special place in my heart. I am self employed so I have a fairly flexible schedule so I can usually work around anything that might be needed or come up. I have a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door so dogs have constant access to the back yard. I also walk dogs 1-2 times a day.
“Sara is amazing with Leo! He is so happy when he gets to go to her house and I always know he is well taken care of and has a blast. Will definitely keep asking Sara to hang with my boy!”
“I’ve used Joseph a few times now, and he’s been amazing every time. My puppy has so much fun and always comes home tired (in the best way). Joseph is reliable, caring, and someone I fully trust with my dog.”
“Amazing experience!! Needed last minute doggie daycare while I was away at a baby shower for 4-5 hours which was longer than I wanted to leave my 8 week old Winston in a kennel. Rachel was available and able to help. So blessed and thankful to be able to do what I needed to do without worrying about him. He had fun, she fed him when he got hungry, and he slept until I got back. She sent updated pics too which eased my mind he was in great hands! What a blessing and lifesaver she is. Will definitely be using her service again.”
“George and his family took excellent care of my dog, Fennec. I got regular updates and a couple of photos, so I never worried. My nervous boy, Fenn, settled in easily with George and the kids. I will definitely take Fenn there again. I highly recommend!”
About: Worked at a vet clinic for 2 yrs! Loved being around animals all day! Never a time where I didn’t have a pet! Love them! Just moved to TN, currently no job so my schedule is completely open! I am very flexible and easy going. Your pet is my priority! I love going on walks and will take your pet for a good walk to get exercise and enjoy being outside! Open to accompany any needs!
“Crystal is a wonderful dog sitter! She makes sure the dogs have everything they need, and gave my Ophelia such a great amount of attention that she jumped out of the car when I was picking her back up. Ophelia will be going back anytime I need to go out of town! Highly recommend her!”
“I’m so excited that my dog sitter, Charish, is finally on Rover.com! My pug, Stormy, absolutely loves Charish! In fact, Stormy gets so excited when we pull up to her townhouse that I can barely hold on to the leash as she rushes to the front door. Charish’s townhouse community has a private park and Stormy loves to go for walks in the park, chase the ducks, and pose for the pictures that Charish sends me during the day!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds for over a decade. I have cared for cats, dogs, guinea pigs, bearded dragons, parrots, bunnies, and fish. I love animals and have a very open schedule, so I am looking to spend my time doing something i love- caring for animals! I have cared for animals of all personalities and types, and have experience handling medications and fixing invisible fences as well! Im currently a fresh grad and job searching so I can very flexible. I want to keep working while i search for my next move in life! I live in an apartment downtown, so I do not have a yard. That being said, it is better for me to house-sit than board, but I am open to boarding as i live near several parks like Marion square!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 27 years and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. As a nurse and lifelong animal lover, I am attentive, dependable, and comfortable administering medications when needed. I understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities, and I provide patient, loving care tailored to each pet. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra attention, I will treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a full time stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule. I am free to care for your pet all day every day of the week. I currently have a 4 year old lab mix who is nervous around strangers, but he loves to play with other dogs. My daughter is currently 13 months old, so if your pet will be in my home, all I ask is that they are potty trained and can be good/gentle with kids, for my daughter’s safety. Our dog is an indoor/outdoor dog. He spends most of his time inside, but he likes to play outside in our fenced in yard during the day as long as the weather is good. We have a screened-in porch with a fan for him to rest in while he is outside, too. He is free to go in and out of it as he pleases. Our dog is free-fed, but we are also used to following feeding schedules from caring for our elderly dog who recently passed, as well as my family’s dogs. I provide a safe, supervised, and loving home environment with consistent care and attention. If desired, I can offer daily walks, whether your pets are boarding with me or receiving drop-in visits. I can also play fetch and provide medication administration, as I have a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Every dog deserves companionship and care. I can ensure they receive plenty of affection, attention, and individualized care from myself, my husband, and my daughter. She is very gentle with animals and absolutely loves interacting with them—it’s truly sweet to watch. I offer flexible care options to accommodate different routines and needs, whether your pet requires simple visits or more structured boarding care.
“Angela was a lifesaver! We spent a week in Utah skiing with family, and Angela helped us out with some last minute doggy daycare and boarding. She has a lovely family with 3 kids and 2 dogs, and combined, they gave our 5-month-old puppy so much love, attention, and playtime. Our puppy is normally pretty shy and can take some time to acclimate to new people, dogs, and situations, but our worries completely disappeared when we saw how comfortable and happy she was when we picked her up after the first day of daycare. Thank you Angela for coming to our rescue at the last minute and 1) accepting Maya into your family for the week and 2) allowing my family to enjoy ourselves on the slopes. We will definitely book with you again the next time we're visiting Utah!”
“Dominique was so welcoming and took great care of our Scout. We were from out of town visiting our very elderly aunt and our 105 pound loving golden retriever couldn’t go to the retirement home. We found our sitter just 2 miles away and immediately felt comfortable with our texting before the trip. We highly recommend!”
About: I've always been the neighbor to care for neighbors pets when they are out of town. I've owned various breeds of dogs for 42 years and cats for 40 years. I love animals! I can help with the needs of your bird as well. I love overnights. Being retired, my schedule is flexible just let me know when you need me! The schedule is flexible I try not to work with animals after 10pm I can board pets in my home or yours. Wherever the pet is more comfortable. Pets are more "relaxed" in their own homes, but mine is available.
About: I’m a professional dog trainer who apprenticed under Kevin Behan founder of Natural Dog Training and author of Your Dog is Your Mirror. I have worked with all kinds of dog, both in terms of breeds and behaviors. I was also the head trainer and a manager of one of the largest boarding facilities in Vermont, Oh My Dog. I have plans for a small kennel and training out of my house long term. Available all week days and possibly weekends with reasonable notice. I have six acres of wooded land that backs up to hundreds of acres of state owned land. I have a fenced in play yard, and two side kennels that get all day shade. Also have space to accommodate crates as well!
“We were rock climbing nearby and Jennifer was super flexible and provided a great place for our pup to spend the day. Her yard is large and secure and her pup, Dingo was playful and super sweet. We would definitely use her again if we were in the area!”

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring her to care for my furry friends and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a deep love and respect for animals, and it showed in the way she interacted with my dogs. I was able to enjoy my time away with complete peace of mind, knowing that my dogs were in great hands. When I returned, my dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for. I can't recommend Sonja and Yolanda highly enough - if you're looking for responsible, caring, and trustworthy dog sitters, look no further!”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Dunlap commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
