“Callie enjoyed another visit with Shawna - she always has fun! Shawna was very flexible with my travel delays and changes. I appreciate her flexibility and great care for my pup.”

“Krystal was absolutely amazing! I had a cross-country move during which everything that could go wrong DID go wrong. Krystal was compassionate and flexible, and the one thing I didn’t have to worry about was whether Max was safe and well cared for. He is a city cat, so he gained a new appreciation for chicken watching, and her kiddos kept him snuggled and loved. They are a good distance from my new home, but I will make the trip for Krystal to keep him when I go out of town. She and her family were a true blessing when I needed help caring for Max. I will always be grateful.”

“KRISTI T- Peppa and Sheba LOVED their 4 day vacation with you. Thanks for your kind attention to them and me. Your doggie door and easy access backyard was perfect for my girls 😜. I’m so glad they got along with your kitties! I love that you work from home - they got more attention from you than at home. We will definitely be asking you again to have them back.”

“Quincy had a nice time with Donna. She slept in a large crated area and played in her fenced yard. It was a great spot to board our dog when we stayed in a rental house in the area that did not allow dogs.”

“We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Brooke! I loved the pictures and videos she sent each day, and my dog absolutely enjoyed himself in her care. She was incredibly sweet and reassuring, and she was great with my dog, Apollo. She was always quick to respond and sent plenty of updates. 10/10 would recommend, and we plan to use her services in the future!”

“Andrew is a great care taker of our senior dog. This was our 2nd booking with him and he did an amazing job. Fast communication, pick ups and drop offs are convenient and easy.”

“Shawna kept me updated with pictures and videos of how my dog was doing and it was very assuring to see him happy, playing with her dogs, and obviously well taken care of. He adjusted right into her home. Overall great experience and great communication. I have already booked my next stay!”


“This was my first time leaving my two Maltese dogs overnight, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She went above and beyond from start to finish—constantly sending videos and pictures that gave me total peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and it really showed how much she cares. One of my favorite touches was receiving a “good morning” video from my dogs—it meant a lot and made me feel connected even while I was away. Her home is clearly set up to care for dogs, safe, clean, and welcoming. On top of that, the location is absolutely beautiful, which made the whole experience even better. I highly recommend her without any doubt. If you’re nervous about leaving your pets, she’s exactly the kind of sitter you want.”

“Their family was very friendly and treated Max like he was theirs. The pictures they sent told us that Max felt right at home. Max really liked it there and that meant a lot to us. When we go back to Gatlinburg we will definitely leave Max with them. Ryan H. and family thank you so much for taking care of our baby.”

“Wow, Cassie took excellent care of my little Yorkie. He had a great time and loved spending time with her awesome children. So thankful to have such a great place for my dog to enjoy.”


“We had to travel overseas and we needed someone to look after our furbaby for over a month period while we were gone. I know it was a big commitment for her but Lauryn went above and beyond taking care of my dog. She sent us videos, pictures throughout and also checked with me for anything unusual. I could feel at ease even when I was away for so long. Thank you so much Lauryn. Dalgu is already looking forward to her next stay with you. 😁”


“My active and strong dogs spent five days with Daniella and her family. Never once did I have any concerns about their care. We did a meet and greet the day before to see how they would react to other dogs and her children. Daniella has built a very nice facility in her home with a huge fenced yard. She takes her responsibilities seriously and is with them whenever they are active. She sent me over 100 photos and videos while I was away. My mind was at ease. The dogs are exhausted now that they are home. I will reach out to Dani first every time.”
“Francis was so happy at Erin’s home, he wasn’t ready to leave when I came to get him! Erin was quick to respond to all of my messages and made me feel like Francis was in great hands. I’m so happy to see him this way and I’ll definitely be using Erin again!”

“Allyson and Tyler were so great with Daisy!! They truly treated her like family and she had such a great time playing with the other dogs!! Such a better experience for her than traditional boarding.. I can tell by her mood after I picked her up that she had a great time staying at their house! I will definitely be booking with them for the future !”

About: I have two dogs, one is three and one is six months. I adore them and spoil them daily. My oldest has very high energy so I am used to getting the energy out! They love going swimming at the lake as well! Though we do not have a fenced in yard, they go for daily walks and have fun enrichment activities inside. I am currently in college, but I am available Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays to walk your dogs! I am also available to board your dog anytime! I am home pretty much all day everyday except for my hour class I have to attend Monday and Wednesday. I have a pretty set routine with my dogs, as I wake up early (6am) to let them both out, and again around 9. I am very attentive with my dogs, as I would be with yours! I make sure they are comfortable and have a nice place to lay and have food and water at their access. If they need to go out, I’m on it! I imagine how my dogs would feel if my dogs were going to a new place, and want to make them feel as loved and comfortable as possible, as new environments can be scary.
“This was the fourth time that Angie has kept Molly, and the longest. It is evident that Molly had a good time. She had other dogs to play with, ate the expected amount of food, and seemed to be in good shape. Thanks Angie.”

“Hannah is very sweet and communicative and her dogs are just as nice. I’m sure my dog and his puppy energy was a pain in the butt but if he was they didn’t let on and the photos they sent showed them getting along perfectly. I would highly recommend Hannah.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Joppa 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 Joppa.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Joppa 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.
