“Katherine watched Hank for a week and she was great! Hank had a good time playing with her dog and another golden she was watching at the same time. He settled in quickly and I got daily photo and text updates. I will definitely use her again!!”
“Kayahja took chiwi in for the weekend and she sent me pictures and videos every single day! She was very quick to respond to my texts and very communicative. She was also so accommodating to chiwis needs and sent us home with a couple of toys. I would absolutely bring chiwi back to kayahja next time I'm in Nashville:)”
“Emily was great! She responded to my last-minute request after another sitter canceled on me. She runs a doggy daycare and knows exactly what she’s doing! Wilson was well cared for.”
“She did a great job with our Pit Bull/Husky mix Skye! Skye is only 3 months old and is a very curious, active puppy who gets into everything. 😂 I was nervous about leaving her but I really appreciated Whitney for being willing to keep Skye in her home and take on all that puppy energy. Skye was well taken care of, and I would definitely use her again! ❤️🐾”
“Huri took great care of Frankie and provided updates and I know she went out of her way to make Frankie feel comfortable during his full week stay. Frankie came home calm and tired and I know he was well cared for. I definitely plan on having Huri watch my dog next time I’m out of town! Thank you Huri!”

“Leah provided so many updates and details that it was as if I hadn’t even left my sweet Daisy behind. Leah & Wes and “the girls” welcomed Daisy with open arms and paws! I’m so glad we found this wonderful family to look after Daisy when we are away. Daisy came home happy and I know when we use Leah & Wes again she will be well taken care of!!”
“Margaret did a great job watching over my dog while I was out of town. She was polite and flexible with the schedule and sent regular updates. Would book again if needed.”

“Troy was wonderful! We had an emergency and had to book last minute and we dropped off our cat within 20 mins. Clean house, took great care of our cat, and super responsive. Will be booking again!”
“Pamela was an excellent Foster Mom for our sweet girl! She sent pictures and was even willing to hold onto her longer when a volcano opened up on our vacation to Hawaii! (Fortunately, we were able to get unscathed!) 5 ⭐️ for sure!”
“If I could give Robin infinite stars, I absolutely would. Robin made me feel comfortable leaving my three cats in her care before I even left for vacation. She picked up and dropped my cats off from my apartment to be boarded seamlessly, which was super convenient for me. Robin provided so many updates in the week I was away from my fur babies. My three cats are a bit timid around new people, but Robin was patient and kind with each of them. She even went above and beyond in recommending and administering calming supplements to keep them comfortable and even groomed them - all without me even asking! I have no hesitation in reaching out to Robin again when I need some cat coverage, absolutely the best.”
“Sydnie and her family are great sitters for our dogs. This past stay for them was the longest they’ve been away from us for a stretch and Sydnie always kept us updated with plenty of pics of our boys!”

“Ana was amazing! Gave my doggos all the love and walked them daily! She kept me updated with pictures daily and had no issues at all! I came home to two happy pups! :)”
“Natalie was a FABULOUS host to my Rhodesian Ridgeback, Juice. She asked all the appropriate questions to ensure his well being. She sent pictures throughout his stay. Her own dog was a welcome new friend. I will definitely use her again!”

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.
96% of sitters in Joelton 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 Joelton 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 Joelton.
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 Joelton. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Joelton 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.
