“SaVannah and her family took wonderful care of our Paris! They have a great setup with a fenced in yard and are obvious dog lovers. We could tell Paris enjoyed playing with SaVannah, her boys and the cat.”
“We were visiting family and unexpectedly needed boarding for a few days. Jessica was great, taking our request on fairly short notice and providing a loving, safe place for our pup. We would definitely board with her again when in the area.”
“Trina was amazing with Kane! He got a nose bleed, while I was on vacation, and he was in her care. She immediately notified me that night and promptly took him 40 minutes away to his vet; which actually saved his life! The vet said he probably wouldn't have made it until his appointment that next Monday! Honestly,I thought it was probably like a human and no big deal. I was wrong. He was recovering from a few things(which she and the vet knew all about the situation) I'm glad I did talk to the vet prior since she had to take him in. I would trust Trina with any of my fur babies! She was amazing and honestly did save my dogs life. She had to make that 40-60 minute drive twice for us! She was a great choice and a God send. I almost left him with my 19 year old who didn't go. I'm SOOOO glad I didn't! Thank you Trina! You will Alessia be my dog sitter!”
“Michael and Lisa couldn’t have been nicer and were so great with Gretel. She had a great stay and I really appreciated how communicative they were. All in all, great experience!”
“Ashley was wonderful with Sophie. She kept us consistently updated and was very flexible with her schedule. Since Sophie has anxiety, Ashley’s patience and care really helped her feel comfortable during her stay. I would absolutely book with Ashley again, thank you so much!”
“My dog loves this home and the people. The last time I dropped her off, she literally darted to the sitter jumping etc so she is definitely happy and taken care of well by Lanelle.”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Frankie! He came home absolutely tuckered out and exhausted, so I know he had a fantastic time playing and getting plenty of exercise. I really appreciate your great communication and care especiallysince this was a bit of a last minute booking. If the need arises, we will definitely be looking to book again!”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our Harley with Jordyn and Marcus! They were so kind and welcoming, and our pup had a great time with them. Their home was nice, and the whole experience was convenient and stress-free. We felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We’ll definitely be calling them again the next time we’re in Knoxville! Highly recommend!”
“Dani was awesome! Our pup Nimmy seemed to have a great time. I so appreciated Dani's constant communication -- we loved getting pics of our pup during her stay! Would definitely recommend and will book again!!”
“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.”
“Madeline took great care of our little guy while we left town for a week. He was happy and healthy when we returned. Madeline was flexible with drop off and pick up times and we really appreciate that.”
“I was skeptical at first when choosing a sitter, since my dog had never stayed anywhere other than with us before. Kaylee completely made that worry go away. She kept me updated constantly with pictures and texts. I will for sure be booking again! Thank you Kaylee!!!”
“Avery and Layton were so sweet and great with my dog, Sadie. I usually leave her with my family but wasn't able to this time, which made me really worried. However, all of my worries quickly disappeared due to the consistent communication and photos that were sent to me. I was out of the country without cell service, and Avery and Layton were very receptive and understanding and communicated via the app. They treated Sadie like their own with frequent walks and even some new neighborhood dog friends. I was really pleased with my experience, but most importantly, Sadie was clearly impressed. I would highly recommend Avery and Layton and hope they're available any time I leave town in the future.”
“Thank you, Meredith! We cannot say enough good things about our experience. Meredith was so accommodating as our travel plans kept changing. She kept us updated with frequent pictures and messages, as she understood we were nervous leaving our little dog with a stranger. We will use her again and highly recommend her services!”
“Our dog Cowboy has loved staying with Becca! She has been so accommodating of last minutes boarding requests and takes such great care of him. We get tons of updates and pictures throughout the stay and feel great knowing that he’s in good hands. He definitely enjoys running around in her fenced backyard and playing with her pup! Thanks Becca!”
“We were a first timer with Rover and decided to select Becky W as our sitter who agreed to take care of them at our home. Becky did an outstanding job caring for our two sweet Lhasa Apsos! We are forever grateful for the communication, sending photos and providing updates including videos during her time with them. It gave us great relief feeling that they were being well cared for. Thank you Becky for making this experience a great one! It truly reduced the stress and helped us have even a better time knowing our babies were in great hands. We will be sure to reach out again when we need a sitter! Thank you so much and God bless.”
“She got great pics!! My dog is not photogenic, she hides from the camera and I loved the shots she got. Multiple walks a day, clean and welcoming home. Great place for Gidget to have a mini vaca at.”

Kayla was great! She was super responsive, really nice, and sent us lots of pictures and videos of Gucci. Most importantly, we could tell he absolutely loved staying with her, which says everything 😂 We felt really comfortable leaving him with her and would definitely book with her again!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
95% of sitters in Kalida 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 Kalida 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 Kalida.
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 Kalida. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Kalida 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.
