“We are repeat customers and cannot say enough good things about Nancy and her accommodations for dogs. My dog had the best time at Nancy’s and was absolutely thrilled to see her again and I’m sure wonders how soon he can go hang with her again. Thank you Nancy for taking such good care of our pup! We are all so grateful.”


“Kaitlyn was fabulous! She sent multiple pictures daily with notes on the various activities with our dog, Abby. The stay was 8 days and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Abby was having a great time! We will be returning to Kaitlyn to care for Abby in the future!!”

“Quincy had a nice time with Donna. She slept in a large crated area and played in her fenced yard. It was a great spot to board our dog when we stayed in a rental house in the area that did not allow dogs.”

“Kathleen was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Remy! From the moment we connected, she was attentive, patient, caring, and kind. She kept in touch with us daily, sending sweet updates and adorable pictures that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Remy was happy, healthy, and in loving hands. Kathleen went above and beyond by meeting me at a convenient halfway point between our homes, making the entire process so easy and stress-free. She was a delight to work with—professional, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. We will absolutely be using her again, without question. Highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”


“We were visiting from out of town and wanted to explore Great Smoky Mountains National Park for a few days without our boys, so we booked with Ann. She was responsive to all our questions/communications, and when we dropped the boys off with her it was clear she had read my profile with all the little details about our fur babies. Our boys were happy when we picked them up and we received updates from Ann throughout their stay with her. Thank you, Ann!”

“Donna was great with communication and our last minute request. It made our time away from our baby easy and stress free. Donna is super nice, accodmating to our arrangements we needed, and kept us updated with pictures and statues. Thanks Donna!”

“Autumn took great care of our two dogs while we were away! She sent us regular updates that showed how well much fun they were having. Lenny and Roger will definitely be back in the future!”

“Megan is the absolute best! She made the entire process as simple as possible from the time we booked until the time we picked our dog up. She kept me updated throughout his stay. Everything was perfect! All we had to do was bring him and his food, she supplied everything else. It was very obvious that she is passionate about what she does. We will be using Megan from now on.”


About: I’ve always loved caring for dogs, often helping neighbors and friends with their dogs. And I look after my grandpup Whiskey, a husky, whenever my son travels. Your pet will enjoy a calm, steady routine while staying with me. I work full‑time from home, so they’ll have company throughout the day and plenty of attention. We’ll follow their usual schedule — walks, meals, potty breaks, and any comfort habits they rely on. Evenings are relaxed and cozy with playtime and snuggles. You’ll receive updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. For cats: They settle in easily here and enjoy a quiet, cozy space with lots of gentle attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep a steady routine throughout the day so pets know what to expect and feel secure while they’re with me. I live in a quiet, comfortable home that’s very pet‑friendly and easy for animals to settle into. Since I work from home, your pet will have company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long stretches. Supervised outdoor time: I don’t have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is on‑leash and supervised. I’m mindful of other dogs we may meet on walks and keep interactions calm and controlled. Safe indoor environment: Inside, pets can relax, nap, and settle in a pet‑friendly space where I’m always nearby. At times, my grandkitty Kitana may be here, and she’s calm, gentle, and used to sharing space with visiting pets. Communication: You’ll receive updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. If anything seems off — changes in appetite, behavior, or comfort — I’ll let you know right away.
“My dog Gracie had a wonderful time at Leondra S.home. She loved playing with her sweet fur babies. She felt right at home. I would definitely recommend her. I had a very good experience.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience! Highly Recommended! We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Megan and her family! We booked Marshall’s stay on the very same day, and from the beginning, Megan was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and attentive. She and her husband took excellent care of Marshall, and it was clear that he was in great hands. He came back happy, relaxed, and perfectly cared for, which meant everything to us! What truly stood out was Megan’s thoughtfulness and flexibility. She even offered to meet us at a more convenient location for pickup, allowing us to save time and enjoy more precious moments with our family during our vacation. That extra effort meant so much to us! Megan and her husband went above and beyond, and we couldn’t be more grateful. I would recommend them a thousand times over! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely attentive to your pet, look no further. Thank you, Megan and family, for treating Marshall so wonderfully! We would absolutely book with you again!”

“Autumn is the best! She was super flexible with us as our dog sitting needs changed when our travel plans changed. Most importantly, however, she took very good care of our Captain Woofy. Autumn sent frequent updates and carefully followed all of our instructions. Notably, we were surprised that he didn't go crazy when he first saw us when we picked him up and we are pretty sure that's because he loved staying at Autumn's. Highly recommended!”

About: I have had pets all my life. I love them all…especially the doggies! We have four rescue pups, a bunny and and a bearded dragon so we share the love with all different animals. I started a dog treat bakery business a couple of years ago that’s really starting to grow, so I’m now transitioning from the 9-5 job so I can pursue my passion for animals full time. I own my own dog bakery and work from home, so my availability is very flexible. We have an 11 acre farm with 2 separate “dog yards”. I will take your dog(s) for long walks and of course playtime if they like, give them food water and treats as needed, and I’m happy to accommodate with any special requests if your fur baby has a favorite activity, treat, or any special needs.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hartford
Brittany came through for us when we were in a bind! We were pretty anxious about boarding our 15 year old, but she made us feel extremely safe and comfortable that he would be in good hands! 10/10 recommend, he had a blast & we relished every photo that proved how happy he was in her home.

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 Hartford 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 Hartford.
<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 Hartford 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.
