“I took Yogi for the first time to Savannah's house. They were so inviting and sent pictures or questions throughout the week. He came home relaxed. We are taking Yogi back today for the second stay:)”
“Derek was great and able to take Marshall at the last minute. He took great care of our pet and provided updates throughout the day. Very communicative and reliable. I would recommend Derek to anyone looking to board a dog.”
“Journey loves being with Janet and her family. He is definitely a part of their pack when I am away and that makes me feel good knowing he is comfortable and loved. 10 out of 10 highly recommend.”
“My dog seem well loved on and kept. Madelyn sent pictures and allowed me to speak with my puppy 🐶 frequently. My flight was delayed and Madelyn allowed me to pick up my up my fur baby after hours. I'm truly grateful 🙏🏽 🥲 🙂”
“Great experience! This was the second time Mary kept our dog. He did great, and we appreciated the updates and pictures. Will definitely use her again!”
“Abby was so patient with Mowgli. It was Mowgli’s first time being boarded without family. He had an anxious accident in his crate, and Abby was very gracious about the clean up. Mowgli was an anxious boy for his first boarding, but he did have a wonderful time cuddling and sleeping with Abby and playing with her dog Theon, who is the sweetest boy!”
“I want first thank Madeline for the care she provided for my elderly baby. She was responsive, kept me updated on Kiba through the day. I felt that my Kiba was in the best hands and it is greatly appreciated.”
“Shanina was awesome with our fur baby Koda. Very flexible with drop off and pick up times and she communicated very well. We will definitely be utilizing her again in the future.”
“Julie was the perfect dog-sitter! She was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and she sent several videos showing me how my pup (6 mo. old Great Dane) was faring while I was gone. Unfortunately my pup had some stress-related diarrhea for the first few days, and Julie not only handled it without any apparent trouble, but she also communicated how my girl was doing as she settled in and felt better. My pup got to socialize with Julie’s personal dogs in a safe, fenced environment, which was exactly what I hoped would happen, and Julie managed my pup’s high energy with plenty of structured outside time. Overall, I will DEFINITELY be using Julie again!”
“Davis took Excellent care of our Teddy Bear. He sent pictures with updates daily. I would definitely use Davis again. Teddy loves walks and he was able to go on plenty of them. Highly recommend!”
“Rodeliza is so kind and was willing to book us on shorter notice than usual! She always takes great care of our pups and we love sending them to her house. Our youngest one kept trying to run back in to stay with her, too!”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs, King and Dobby, with someone outside of our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Will. From the start, he was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive to their needs. He went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and at home, and it was clear they absolutely loved him! Will kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can tell he genuinely cares about the animals he watches. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust, and we’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“WOW! So very, very grateful to have found Amy and her wonderful family! My pup-dog was so well-loved and enjoyed tons of play time, snuggles, and lots of TLC. He had such a good time and was SO happy! When the entire family stood out in the yard to wave good-bye, it was so sweet that it was very hard not to cry! I highly recommend Amy... except if I need her at the same time you do! LOL!! She's terrific!!!!”
“Ruby was amazing. Not only were we extremely happy with her, Lennox and Zoey were too. We have used different places but our first time using Rover. We are totally pleased and will definitely use them again 😀”
“This was our first boarding experience with our 6 month old puppy. Myra came through for my family in a pinch & we are so grateful. She sent pics of our boy while we were away & he appeared to be in great spirits. When we arrived for pickup, it was obvious that he was comfortable with both Myra and her home, which was very comforting as well. Would recommend.”
“Apollo and Luna had a wonderful stay with Rebecca and Stephen! They made the experience easy and Apollo and Lu came back happy and well-loved!”
“Nicole was absolutely wonderful with Atlas! She was incredibly caring and attentive to his needs, and I loved that she sent me updates throughout his stay. It made such a difference being able to see him happy and settled, giving me 100% confident that he was in great hands and being well taken care of the entire time! 🤍 Would recommend and book again.”

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 Locke 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 Locke.
<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 Locke 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.
