“We were so happy with our first Rover experience. Emma was awesome! Emma arranged a meet & greet before our trip to discuss daily routines for our dog. We received daily pictures and a recap of how the day went. Emma quickly responded to any text sent. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our dog was in great care! We will definitely use Emma for all of our future dog watching needs!!”
“Stephanie done a terrific job with all 4 of my babies. They all have a few quirks but she just jumped in and had all 4 attached to her hip. So happy I was able to find such a caring person to watch them while I was away. Highly recommend !”
“Chandler was great during our house sitting! She checked in with us often and we came home to a clean house! Our dogs loved her so much they were looking for her in the guest room the next morning after she left!”
“Emery did an amazing job looking after my 2 dogs and my house when I had to take a last-minute work trip. They each have very different needs/temperaments but Emery did a wonderful job attending to them both. She even left them custom-made REPORT CARDS that are now pinned to my fridge. 10/10, highly recommend, will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I have cared for dogs personally for the majority of my life. I also gained professional experience working at a doggie daycare where I got to play and cuddle with a variety of dogs! At the doggie daycare, I learned some helpful methods on how to handle and evaluate a dog’s temperament for a group setting. I’m currently working part-time and am available on the weekends from 12 pm till 11 pm! Due to having classes during the week, my best time to work is the weekends. I live in an apartment complex that is pet friendly and live just down the hill from a dog park. My roommate also has a dog to keep yours company!
“Kristen took great care of Jack and Callie playing lots of fetch. We came back to a happy dog and cat and a house that looked like we never left. We will definitely book with Kristen again.”
About: I am not kidding when I say I have years of experience. I currently work at a vet, so I’m learning everyday about pets. But this experience started years ago, watching dogs, cats , hedgehogs even since age 12. I have had my share of animal stories. I have experience with sick animals so administering medicine would not be a problem. I can go on multiple walks with your animal (usually dogs but my sister walks her cat ;) And if wanted, I do run so if that is something your animals would want, we could do that. I love animals , so I will make time for them whenever I can . Whether it be a night watching your animals or just a walk to help get their energy out, I’m down for it If you just need someone to keep your animal company, I can join it for a snuggle session. Or if your dog has lots of energy, we can go for a run to get those zoomies out.
“Sara was great and took care of our babies. Will use her again in the future. Her communication skills were amazing. She met the needs of our older dogs and went above our expectations. Highly recommended using Sara.”
“Annabelle took amazing care of Brandy and Phoebe, as always!-I’ve had experiences with sitters in the past that left me with some concerns, but she has no trouble making me feel like my pups are safe and well cared for. Thanks again Annabelle!!!”
About: I have hands-on experience from interning at a veterinarian clinic and working for a local pet care company similar to Rover. As a pet owner myself (dog and epileptic kitten), I know how to handle walks, feeding, bathing, medications, and more. Your pet will be in caring and capable hands! I am available most weekends. I also work from home often, which provides me more flexibility. However, days I am in the office, I am available mornings, lunch time, and evenings. I provide attentive, personalized care by ensuring pets are fed, walked, and given plenty of affection. I follow routines, administer medications if needed, and maintain a safe, comfortable environment in both my home and clients’ homes. I have an epileptic kitten, so am no stranger to anything pet related.
“Katy has served as house/dog sitter for us 3 times now. Her most recent stay was almost a full week. She consistently goes above and beyond what is expected of her, and has proven to be very reliable. We have recommended her to numerous friends and we feel so very fortunate to have crossed paths with her. She puts up with our big, crazy dogs and I like having the additional security of not having an empty house while we are away traveling.”
“Olivia did a great job caring for our dog over the weekend while we went out of town. She came by for a meet and greet the weekend before, and stayed in touch before and during our trip. Olivia arrived on time and kept us updated with texts and pictures while we were away. We will definitely trust our fur baby to her care again in the future and highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve worked in dog daycare and boarding for six years as well as taking care of my pets. I also have some experience taking care of horses and sheep. I’m generally available weekdays from 11 AM–2 PM, with evening flexibility from 4–6 PM as needed. I’m also available on weekends. I have extensive experience caring for animals of all kinds, beginning in childhood, and I’m committed to providing your pet with attentive, dependable, and compassionate care.
About: Hi everyone! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15, and walking dogs since I was 10 years old. I have pet-sat a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, and guinea pigs. I also have experience with any age or health status- senior dogs, kittens, medicated pets, etc. In general, I’ve experienced many different circumstances, so I can adjust easily. Animals have been a lifelong interest for me. I was the girl begging my parents for a dog, and I take care of my current roommate’s cat frequently while she’s away. I promise to nourish, entertain, and take care of your pet like they’re my own. I'm currently a college senior, though I only have on-campus classes twice a week. This means I can be present quite often for your pet. 4-6 hours or more between feeding/potty breaks is ideal for me. Besides that, I'm quite flexible. In my college house, we already have a cat, and my family back home has a dog; needless to say, I'm used to caring for pets in my free time. I can only pet-sit at the client's house. Due to my roommates and the cat we have, I'm unable to board a pet. I always keep a close eye on the pet's behavior and ensure they're fed on time every day. If they get into something, I'll clean them up no problem. I also have a list of emergency vets I'm prepared to go to if the client doesn't have a preferred vet of their own. However, my specific care of the pet(s) depends on the client's instructions and preferences.
“Gabriella was fantastic with our dogs — great communication throughout and she left the house exactly as she found it. Highly recommend her if you need someone reliable and attentive!”
“Madeline arrived on time and took great care of my pets. She spent time with them and cuddled with my dogs. I received pictures of them while she was staying with them. My house was left tidy and pets were happy. I would love for Madeline to house/pet sit for me any time.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Farragut is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Farragut
Emma was wonderful! We were very nervous to leave our cat alone for the first time after losing our other cat, but Emma was so great. He was cuddling with her by the second day of her stay! She was great to give us updates and left the house spotless! Highly, highly recommend!
Derri was fantastic with our boys! Both are older, large dogs that require a good bit of somewhat complex medication - Derri managed with great care! Regular updates were sent complete with photos and details on how the boys were doing. Thank you Derri for taking great care of our boys allowing us to have a relaxing vacation knowing everything was good at home!
Hillary was amazing with my dog for overnight boarding. She really got to know all her quirks right away and my cautious dog warmed up to her quickly. She made sure my dog was walked, excercised and pottied. She kept me updated with updates, pictures, and videos everyday. She was very communicative. She left the house how I left it, cleaned up and did some simple housekeeping to make sure I came home comfortably after my long trip. The best sitter I have had! Thank you Hillary!
Jodi has watched our dog George many times now and she’s always wonderful! She’s very professional, punctual, and follows all of our care instructions very well. George loves her and is even sometimes a little upset to see her leave. I would highly recommend Jodi!
Rachel was not only a great and communicative dog sitter, she was also very respectful of our home. She was extremely attentive to our shy dog and did her best to make her comfortable and happy. She was also able to give our pittie his meds without any issues. We got plenty of updates and photos! We would trust her with the pups anytime.

The average cost of House Sitting in Farragut is $52 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $82 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Farragut walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Farragut maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Farragut choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
