“Hayley was great! Our senior dog just wasn’t a good fit for the setting as she’s never stayed outside our four walls before and she was pretty scared the whole time; refusing to eat or take her meds. It is in no way a reflection on Hayley; she did everything she could do to make her comfortable.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Olivia! She kept me very well-informed throughout her time with Rex, sending regular updates and the cutest pictures. She was incredibly sweet and attentive, and Rex seemed so happy and comfortable in her care. It’s clear she truly loves animals, and I can’t thank her enough for taking such great care of Rex! Highly recommend!”

“The absolute sweetest! We got tons of pictures of our 2 cats and all the updates we could ever want. Our girls are usually shy around new people but they adjusted so quickly to Michelle and Bryce!”


About: I have professional experience caring for dogs through Wag, PetSmart, and Petco. I worked with Wag for two years providing dog walking and pet care services similar to Rover, and I also worked as a professional bather at both PetSmart and Petco. In addition, I have experience training German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois in Schutzhund-style training, which gave me hands-on experience working with strong, intelligent, high-energy dogs. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding, exercise, training, and care routines, and I take safety and each dog’s individual temperament seriously. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, structure, or simply a comfortable place to stay, I’ll treat them with the same attention and care I would expect for my own pet. I’m available throughout the week and can provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so their stay feels familiar and comfortable. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and experience handling dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels. I follow feeding, medication, exercise, and crate instructions carefully, and I’m comfortable maintaining structure for dogs that thrive on a routine.
“Nathan & his family did great with Walter. They still took him in while they didn’t have any power during the ice storm, very selfless & kind! We received lots of a photos & Walter seemed to be as happy as can be during his stay with them!”

“Our dogs had a blast. Their dog, Scout, warmed up to our lab mutt and goldendoodle. My dog is absolutely wiped out today from all the fun and big back yard romps. Patti send pictures daily and her whole family gave our pups love and cuddles all weekend. We will definitely use them again to watch our dogs. They’ve got a great setup for a cozy, familiar stay for dogs. Thank you so much for making our pups part of your family for the long weekend!”

“Suzi was great! We just moved to the Nashville area and she’s the first rover we’ve had here. I was very impressed. She watched our two babies on Fourth of July weekend and when I sent the request the first thing she asked was how do they do with fireworks. Right off the bat we knew she was responsible and caring. We loved the updates with photos and videos! Our dogs were very happy running around and playing. And the best part is when we brought them home, they completely passed out for several hours! Big feat with two energetic doodles ? She took great care of our babies and they had a TON of exercise. We are very pleased!”

“Kelsie was excellent to our Maggie and provided pictures and updates everyday. Her Golden (plus one more Golden) kept Maggie entertained and active. Kelsie is responsive, responsible, caring, and did a wonderful job!”

“This is by far our best experience using Rover so far! Jessica is simply amazing. She is a great communicator, trustworthy, and quick to respond with questions and kept us informed how our dog was doing. Jessica was more than accommodating when our flight got canceled and couldn’t get home to pick up our dog. She offered to take him additional nights and drive him if needed, she went above and beyond what any other person would do in this situation. She is an Earth angel and we appreciate her so much!”

“Mochi had a fantastic time with Scott’s family. Scott sent us daily pictures of Mochi and his new friends, and we were so happy to see him enjoying his stay. I truly appreciate the wonderful care Scott provided, and we will definitely be back. :)”

“Kathryn was so great with our dog, Sofie! She took Sofie to the dog park and sent lots of pictures. And our dog adored her sweet pup! We are so grateful she took such good care of our baby.”

“Wonderful petsitter! Our two dogs spent a happy weekend with Aidyn and his wife, who were so kind, and their dog Butterbean was a very friendly and welcoming host. Dogs were relaxed, safe, and loved. Aidyn sent pics and updates. Great experience. Thank you!”


“Joelle did an amazing job of taking care of my pup, Zero! She kept me up to date on how Zero was doing the whole time and made sure he had lots of activities throughout the day. Joelle was easy to get in touch with and always quick to respond. You can tell Joelle really loves animals and treats them with immense kindness. I would definitely recommend Joelle to watch my friends and family’s pets.”

“Reyhan is so loving and kind! She took excellent care of my baby girl and provided daily photos, videos and updates. If you want someone who you can trust to treat your pet just as you do, Reyhan is your person! We will definitely book with her in the future!”

“Tara was so great with our puppy. Easy going, sent us pictures of him throughout. She let him snuggle in bed with her! She kept us informed and we would definitely use her again! Thanks Tara”

“My dog stayed with Kate and her husband for the first time last weekend and had no adjustment issues at all! They took him on walks and loved on him. I received pictures and updates on how he was doing throughout the weekend. I highly recommend Kate!”

“Tucker loved his time with Margaret! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. He had a blast playing with outside in her yard! Would definitely book again.”

I can’t say enough good things about Katie! She was professional from the very beginning. Since our plans changed last minute she was able to accommodate and care for Baxter on short notice. From the moment I first met her, it was clear how much compassion, energy, and genuine love she has for animals. Baxter has severe separation anxiety and within minutes felt safe in her home. From our very first interaction, I knew Baxter was in great hands. Katie truly goes above and beyond to ensure my pet and yours will be looked after correctly. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. You can feel confident knowing your pets are in excellent hands with Katie. Baxter will surely be back soon!!

Brandon has watched Remi several times and is my first option whenever I need a place for her. He’s extremely responsive and I have peace of mind every time my family travels, knowing she’s in great hands. She gets excited to walk through the front door whenever we get to the front porch, so I know she loves her trips there too!

In short, this was the perfect place for my pups to stay, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! I am so thankful for Shannon and her family. I am a very nervous pet parent, and from the meet and greet I knew this was a perfect match for us! I have three dogs that have a wide range in age and energy levels and they met the needs of every one! We received photo and texts updates every single day so I never had to worry if something went wrong. My pups were happy and healthy when we picked them up. We will definitely be using them again!

Coco seemed to absolutely love Kristin, Terence, and their pup! It felt like a little vacation for her. They were incredibly communicative throughout her stay, and we loved receiving all the photos and videos. It was clear that Coco was very loved, well cared for, and having a great time. Knowing she was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. We would absolutely recommend Kristin and would happily have them watch Coco again in the future. I’m sure Coco would love that too!

This was our second time using Angela, and we had another wonderful experience! She recently got a new pup named Mable, who is the cutest little blurry ball of fluff and I’m sure keeps our old man dog on his toes. We always feel so comfortable knowing he is in such loving hands!

Kelly is absolutely amazing. She always goes above and beyond to provide the best care for our pups. She also is great at keeping us updated on how our dogs are doing while we are away. Kelly is extremely flexible and understanding of unexpected travel delays. I will book time and time again! ❤️❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Hermitage is $46 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 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 October 2026, there are 1,730 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hermitage. 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.
96% of sitters in Hermitage 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 Hermitage 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 Hermitage.
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 Hermitage 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.
