“Hannah does a great job of giving our pup lots of love and attention. Luna was definitely a member of the family! ❤️ Lots of pics and daily checkins made me calm about how she was fitting in. Thanks Hannah!”

“Jennifer is just awesome & so patient. Our Axel is a finicky eater and sometimes won't eat for a day. The pictures & videos she sends are too cute & precious. We were running late to pick Axel up, due to traffic and being out of state and she was agreeable to our backup plan of having our emergency contact pick him up.”


“Thomas was AMAZING! He took such great care of our sweet Luna! He sent updates every day which we really appreciated when leaving Luna with someone! He was very responsive and communicated promptly! I definitely recommend Thomas and will be booking with him again!”

“Carola is a wonderful pet sitter & always takes great care of our Susie! Susie is very fond of Carola & Carola keeps me posted with pics & texts. We wouldn’t consider using any other sitter 😊”

“Ms Rita was incredible with our sweet Dixie! We had such a sense of peace knowing our pup was being so well taken care of. I honestly believe she is just the best out there.”

“I was very comfortable leaving Pringles with Alyson for the week. She made us feel welcome immediately. I received pictures and updates throughout my trip which eased my mind and I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation. I would definitely recommend Alyson to anyone and will be calling on her again when we go out of town.”

“I loved how responsive Lori was both when making the booking and providing updates when she had my dog Flash staying with her. She was very flexible and accommodating, and her wealth of experience with dogs gave me great peace of mind about leaving Flash with her. I recommend Lori to anyone in need of a dog sitter!”


“She was GREAT!!! This was the first time I’ve ever left my dog with anyone other than family and was nervous, but she was awesome about keeping us updated and letting us know how she was doing. Will definitely recommend Molly and will book with her again”

“We were so happy to find a dog sitter in the Bristol area, after our former sitter retired. Ken is very personable and loves dogs. Our Maltipoo has separation anxiety and seemingly needs extra attention and assurance when we are away. Ken kept in touch with photos and updates, to let us know that Murphy was adjusting and doing well. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing his services.”


“Great guy awesome communication took my cat for the weekend while I was traveling thru so I could go hit some excursions, he sent me updates and pictures of him keeping my cat active and played with. 1000x better than any boarding place I’ve ever taken him to. so glad to have found James.”


“Melanie loves dogs and is smart about what they need for care and play. My dog has separation anxiety and she went above and beyond in order to make him feel safe and comfortable.”

“Linda F. & Wendy C are amazing in taking care of our fur baby. Thanks for making us feel at ease. Definitely using them again. They go above and beyond in making sure precious was welcome. Even cooked her some chicken to make her feel well. You ladies are amazing!!!!!”

About: I’ve had dogs in the home since I was a small child and host small dogs (under 20 pounds) in my home. I'm new to booking through Rover, but can supply references, if requested. I’m excited to open my door (and heart) to your pup for day visits or overnights. I have one super tough 6 pound Shihtzu-Chihuahua in the house so your pups must be friendly with other dogs. I also have experience with puppies and caring for senior dogs. I work from home so I'm at home all day and night during the week. On weekends, I'm never gone for more than 3- 4 hours at any one time. Most of the time, I'm home with the fur babies. I have a house with ample room to welcome up to 2 dogs (same owner) at a time. I have a fenced back yard area allowing for exercise and free roaming. I never leave pets outdoors unattended. Dog's will normally sleep in my bed with me, but totally fine if they prefer their own bed in my room.

About: My name is Annabell, and I'm a self-proclaimed animal lover with years of pet sitting experience. I grew up surrounded by pets of all shapes and sizes, and I've always had a soft spot for furry friends. I’m currently working part time at the animal shelter I specialize in caring for dogs and cats, but I'm also comfortable with small mammals, reptiles, and even the occasional exotic pet. I'm always up for a challenge, and I love learning about new animals and their unique needs. One of the things that sets me apart from other pet sitters is my ability to connect with animals on a deeper level. I pride myself on being able to read an animal's body language and understand their needs, even if they can't tell me in words. I'm also experienced in administering medication, so you can rest assured that your pet is in good hands. I know that pets are more than just animals - they're family members - and I treat them with the same love and care that I would want for my own pets. When I'm not pet sitting, you can usually find me exploring the great outdoors with my own furry friend. I'm an avid hiker and nature lover, and I believe that spending time in nature is just as important for pets as it is for humans. If you're looking for a fun-loving and experienced pet sitter who truly cares about your furry friend, look no further. I can't wait to meet you and your pet! I understand trust is a big factor in finding the right sitter. I always do meet and greets beforehand to make sure you and your pet are comfortable with me. In my time of being a pet owner myself and professionally sitting I have a developed a high understanding of the care, temperament and just fun activities for the the doggos and cats to enjoy! ( and of course all your farm, exotic and aquatic friends)

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gray
Wow! I am so grateful for finding Miss Rita on Rover! I had an unavoidable work trip out of town and found Miss Rita on this site. My Pup took a vacation with new friends at Miss Rita’s where she was treated like family ☺️. Miss Rita kept us updated with pictures and quick video clips throughout the day and I could see how content and happy my pet was. I can’t say enough good things about her care-She was happy to see us of course when we picked her up, but her relaxed demeanor and behavior after coming home showed she’d been comfortable and well cared for-Miss Rita is the ABSOLUTE BEST second puppy Mama !

So glad I read the reviews and chose Ms. Rita to care for our Brody. Brody came into our lives from a rescue and we were worried about him being introduced to a new environment so soon. Ms. Rita went through the process step by step and we left feeling that Brody would be in a safe and happy environment. The daily photos and videos kept us at ease through the weekend. Will absolutely use Ms. Rita again.

I can’t say enough good things about Rita. This was a last minute trip that we couldn’t take a pup with us. I don’t like leaving my girl behind, but I know she is in good hands when Rita watches her. She also sends me plenty of pictures and videos to let me know how June is doing. I can’t recommend her enough and will keep using her. This was June’s second time staying with Rita.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Gray is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $72 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 116 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Gray. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
98% of sitters in Gray can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Gray 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 Gray.
Tip: 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 Gray 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.
