“Regina was so helpful. I had a very late notice request, and Regina was willing to work with me to make sure my doggy was well taken care of. Made sure to send me pics and videos of my dog. 10/10 would recommend and will be using her again!!! Thank you so much, Regina!”
“Misty is my go-to dog sitter! i’ve booked with her multiple times and she’s always great. She has a nice house with a spacious backyard and a flexible schedule for pick up and drop off. My dog loves her and her dogs and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Kristen and Steven provide exceptional pet-sitting services. My dog appeared content in all the updates provided, and the environment is remarkably peaceful. Rocky was calm upon his return, which confirms he had a positive experience. I highly recommend their professional services.”
“We have nothing but great things to say about Kaitlyn! She was very easy to communicate with and took many adorable pictures of our pups during their stay. We got daily updates on their progress which was so comforting our first time away from them for more than a day or two. Definitely recommend!!”
“As always, Robert and his family took great care of our fur baby! It is great not having to worry about how your dog is doing when you go out of town. Copper once again came home worn out, which tells me he had a blast. Thanks again!”
“This is our first time leaving our golden retriever for an extended stay and we were nervous about it. However, we soon realized we didn't have to be as Shiloh took great care of Rollo! She has a calm energy and has extensive knowledge about animals. Rollo had hot spot flare ups and she made sure to thoroughly care for him during the healing process. Her house is clean and Rollo was happy at pick up! Thank you so much again for taking care of Rollo!”
About: I am an RN, used to looking after folks since 1987, I have fostered for several dog rescues over the years also. My care and concern for dogs welfare is huge! I’m part time working so have plenty time to spend with the dogs. I have a large country homestead setting, with safe fenced in areas for play and exercise! My two dogs are used to playing with other dog friends - all under supervision, with crates for rest time, and separate areas for mealtimes in case of issues.
“Dawn was absolutely AMAZING. You can tell she is very passionate about what she does. She sends you so many pictures of your pet so you know they are doing great and we REALLY appreciate that. If you ever want someone to watch your pet let it be her! we will 100% be having our dog come back here!”
About: Siempre he tenido un perro en mi casa, aprendí a caminar con un pastor aleman que tenían mis abuelos. Nunca me ha faltado un perro en mi casa y he cuidado perros de amigos. Encaja muy bien, porque adoro los perros, me encanta cuidarlos y que la pasen bien, tratar al máximo que no estén triste por la ausencia de sus amos Consintiéndolos y dándoles mucho amor. Pendiente de ellos que no les falte nada ni que coman nada extraño. Que estén al día con todo siempre

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
97% of sitters in Hickman 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 Hickman 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 Hickman.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hickman. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Hickman 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
