“Nancy & Stan not only took my booking very last minute, but were so kind and gracious throughout the entire experience. They truly exude such warmth and my pup loved them so quickly for being strangers and I think that says a lot! Great communication and feedback the entire trip and they gave our girl lots of love and walks. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for her.”
“Tish was great! So great that I think my dog didn’t want to come home lol. Tish sent photos of my girl and even texted about a health concern. I will definitely use her again!”
“Just took our new 2 year old for the first time. Jaime has been watching our 10 year of dog for almost a year now. Both love going to her place. Always love the updates daily to see how much fun they have”
“Megan and her husband did a wonderful job with Gracie! I would highly recommend them, especially if you have a dog who isn’t fond of other animals, like mine ? We will definitely be using thanks again!!!”
“Best ROVER experience I have had. Wish I Could give this wonderful couple more than 5 stars. Great experience for me, but EVEN better experience from my pup. He was elated and exhausted. Perfect!”
“Justin was able to take Eleanor last minute and even squeezed in a drop in visit to make sure she was comfortable with him before her stay. She can take a minute to warm up to new people but he quickly put her at ease. He was also great with communication throughout the weekend. We came home to a very happy and tuckered out dog!”
“Alora took great care of Dude! She sent several pictures and an update daily that showed her kids playing with Dude and taking him for walks. I have no doubt that he was taken well care of during our vacation. I would recommend Alora to w.”
“Carrie is absolutely wonderful. She sent tons of pictures and videos and treated my Buster as her own. I was worried he wouldn’t want to come back! We’ll definitely be using Carrie as our go-to sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking. Thanks for everything, Carrie!”
“Brandi is awesome! She took great care of my pup and sent really nice updates and photos each day. My pup seemed to fit in really well with her and her family and I felt confident that his needs were taken care of. Will definitely book again. Thanks Brandi!”
“Crista was amazing! Took our booking last minute really helping me in a hard time. She sent me regular updates on how our boy was doing. I can tell he had a great time because he immediately fell asleep on car ride home. Thank you Crista and family! We will definitely be back!”
“Sara is the best! I recently left my sweet boy Leo with Sara while I traveled across the country for over a week. Due to flight delays and massive storm my trip was extended and I was delayed getting home. Sara gladly kept Leo longer and made sure I received updates and photos while I was away and missing my pup. I’m so grateful for Sara and the amazing care and love she provided to Leo while I was away. Sara is our #1 go-to anytime Leo needs to be cared for in my absence in the future. Thank you, Sara!”
“Bethani was very accommodating for my pack of four "wild dingos". Drop off was great! She was so welcoming. Her kids where so helpful, interested, and immediately loving to my fur babies! I got se eral cute and entertaining photos while I was gone. Looked like a good time was had by all! We will be a repeat client!”
“Will & Jillian were great with Rosie and were great about sending pictures and communicating with us while we were away! We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Rachel is a great sitter. I left my pup with her on two occasions - once for a weekend and another for an 8 day trip. She did an amazing job with her and I could tell my dog had a great time. She sends daily updates and photos which is greatly appreciated. More importantly Rachel is super understanding and was able to be flexible with me when my return flight was delayed and cancelled. I will definitely keep using her as my sitter anytime we go out of town - 10/10 would recommend!”
“This was our first time leaving our girls with Casey & Luigi, and their professionalism was very impressive! From their sign-in sheet, to the updates with pics, to the treat bags at pickup, you could tell they care about their clients AND their furry friends! Roxie and Frankie have been sleeping all day today, obviously worn out from playing Saturday and Sunday. Thanks!”
“Sonja and Yolanda are so friendly and accommodating! They were super easy to work with around my schedule- making drop off and pick up a breeze. I could tell Chloe pup really enjoyed her stay as well. I will definitely be using them again for future sitting needs!”
“Our dog Lola had a great week with Pam!! We got updates and pictures most every day and Lola was so well cared for while we were gone. This was our first time using Rover and leaving Lola in someone else’s care other than at home with family so we were so thrilled with how well everything went. We will definitely be using Pam again! Thanks!!”
“Finn seemed to enjoy playing in their large fenced yard. I think he got along well with their dog and another guest dog. He seemed happy when we picked him up. I never saw George, but his mother was very nice.”
“Joslynne was great as usual, sending pics and updates throughout my pup’s stay. Having just adopted him recently, Joslynne was supportive and patient with his transition to a new home.”
“Kristen was amazing! She was quick to respond and sent pictures of our dog every day. It was our first time boarding our dog and we were a little anxious, but it was obvious how well Kristen took care of her. We will definitely book with her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hixson
Maria went above and beyond when she recently boarded our dog, Koah, for two weeks. Her home is tidy, comfortable and quiet, all the things our anxious doggy needs. For the first few days of the boarding, Maria stayed nearby so that Koah had an easier transition to a new place. While away, we received numerous photos each day as well as consistent updates on how Koah was doing and any other relevant updates. She even went out of her way to buy Koah an additional chew toy and treat! We cannot recommend Maria enough if you're looking for a dog sitter or dog boarder who is genuinely a dog lover and will treat your dog like her own. We will certainly be booking with Maria again for future needs.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hixson on Rover is $35.31 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 343 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hixson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
82% of Hixson sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Hixson landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hixson 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 Hixson.
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 Hixson 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.
