“Our dog loved staying with Rachel & her family!! So much so that he didn’t want to leave when it was time to go. 😂 Rachel was communicative and lovely and she took amazing care of our pup. We’re always a little anxious when we leave him, but it was clear from the many pictures and texts that he was well cared for, happy, and safe. We will absolutely be repeat clients.”
“We couldn't be any happier that we chose Christina and Brent to watch J. Walker. This was our first trip not taking him with us. Christina kept in touch over the stay. She even sent photos. J. Walker had so much fun playing with the other dogs. There is no doubt in our minds that we will take J.W. back. We trust Christina completely with our fur baby.”
“Tish and her husband are always so sweet and helpful. It's clear that they love my dog, Peaches, and she feels very comfortable with them. I'm so grateful to have them to watch her!”
“There's no better place than Álora's home. I felt good and at peace leaving my little one there. I know he enjoyed the atmosphere she creates through her personality. Now we know we've found a safe and trustworthy place. I'm sure my little Ollie enjoyed it immensely. We got the impression that they treated him like one of the family, and that says more than a thousand words.”
“I feel so lucky to have found George S. and family. He and his home set me so at ease from the first moment. My dogs are 'middle aged' and Lizzie has delicate health. Huck's on a diet. George was so easy to work with and accommodating and attentive to my (pretty simple) requests. I know for sure that my dogs were treated as members of his household. He sent me photos and told me little tidbits about Huck and Lizzie that made me know they cared and his family had grown affection for my pups--which the pups can certainly can sense. Once back home, they seemed content and relaxed. I love Rover.com! George S. and family will be my go-to caretakers any time I need boarding.”
“My dog loved his stay at Angela‘s house! Angela has a nice home in a quiet part of Chattanooga. My dog got along great with her dog and her children and was treated as part of the family. He had plenty of room to roam around inside and out in the fenced yard. I will definitely use Angela‘s services again.”
“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!”
“Megan took such good care of Basie, sending daily photos that always assured me he was more than just ok, he was happy and enjoying his time. Can’t thank you enough!!!”
“Echo helped me out on really short notice and was incredibly helpful. She took great care of Jett and sent tons of pictures and updates while I was gone. He was as happy as I’ve ever seen him when I picked him up. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Great home-away-from-home for our Corgi mix. Waffle had two other dogs to play with—one a full Corgi—and a little girl, and he loves children. Brooke was great at accommodating our furbaby’s separation anxiety and our cluelessness on his first time away from us, for a week! Will be back next time we need a pet sitter.”
“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!”
“Crista was a great dog sitter. She sent me pictures everyday of my pups and gave little updates throughout the day, which let me relax and enjoy my trip worry free. Would recommend 10/10 🌟”
“Joseph was very communicative and took great care of camper! I received photos of camper multiple times a day and felt like camper was in great hands. Definitely recommend!”
“Joslynne was great! My boyfriend and I just moved to the area but had an immediate family vacation causing a lot of stress! But she came through for us right away! She is a true animal lover through and through and took great care of my goofball. She's awesome about assessing and handling a dog's individual needs to make sure that your pup is comfortable and well taken care of. She sent me daily updates so I had peace of mind that he was adjusting well and having a great time! I will absolutely use her again and give her 10/10 stars!”
“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!”
“Stephanie took GREAT care of our two pups, and it gave us peace of mind to know that they were in such good and caring hands while we were away for a full week. Great communication, great caregiving, happy pups -- highly recommend!”
“Emily took such good care of our fur baby. We could see how happy he was in the daily photos she sent us. Great communication before and during our trip. When we had a last minute change in travel plans, Emily was very gracious and accommodating. We will definitely be asking her to care for Bear again.”
“Brittany did a great job watching our girls while we were gone during Thanksgiving. She sent us pictures and was even playing in the floor with them when they were picked back up to go home!”
“Our dogs loved staying with Susannah. She made it easy to drop them off and sent pictures and videos throughout the stay. Flynn and Minnie were excited to get to her house and play with Susannah’s dogs. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dogs.”

Maria deserves 10 Stars! She was responsive, reliable and caring. If you want someone who truly cares for your pet scroll no further. She was wonderful and I felt that my boy was not just watched while we were away, but he was loved! Maria kept in touch with updates and photos. What a great experience for me and my dog!
Brooke was fantastic! She gave my pup such a loving home while we were out of town for a few days. Her communication was perfect, just the right number of updates and photos so we always felt at ease. When we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. He loved playing in the yard and especially enjoyed time with their pup, Curry. We would absolutely trust Brooke again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hixson on Rover is $35.31 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 349 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.
84% 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.
