“I can't even express how much I appreciate Lorna taking such great care of Jasper. It's hard to really know if your pet is being taken care of when you leave them but I can tell by how he reacts when I get him back that he was treated very well. She always sends pics and videos that shows me he's thriving. This was my second time using Lorna and even though it's a bit of a drive for me it's worth it to know she treats him like her own.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Samuel and Erica! This was my first time boarding my dog, and I was incredibly nervous—but they made the entire experience amazing from start to finish. A few days before the stay, they invited me over for a meet-and-greet so I could get a feel for their home, meet them, and introduce my dog to their sweet pup, Lana. The moment I walked in, I knew they were the right people. Their space was welcoming, safe, and dog-friendly, and their kind energy instantly put me at ease. Throughout the stay, they went above and beyond. They sent frequent updates and lots of pictures, which made me smile every time. It was so comforting to see my dog happy, relaxed, and having a blast with Lana. When my dog didn’t want to eat at first, they reached out right away and kept me posted until she finally finished her dinner—something I really appreciated as a nervous first-timer. When I picked her up, she was completely worn out—in the best way! After three days of nonstop play and attention, she came home happy, tired, and clearly had the time of her life. Samuel and Erica treated my dog exactly how I would want her to be treated—with love, patience, and genuine care. They communicated wonderfully, kept me in the loop the whole time, and truly felt like people I could trust completely. I’ll absolutely be booking with them again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Thom was the absolute BEST dog sitter I have ever had. And I have been using rover for years! He sent me frequent pictures, videos, and updates of my girl while she was there. He took amazing care of her and handled her high energy so well! He is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and so kind. I have never felt more comfortable leaving my girl with a new sitter. I recommend him to everyone!”
“Amy and Jason are amazing!! Very welcoming!! Prepared; Mochi is part of their family when there, they treat her as one of their own! Could not have asked for more…Mochi returns home very calm and gets back into real life at home quickly. Thank you! If you are hesitant; don’t be!!”
“Linda and Wendy did a great job taking care of Licorice, who can be fussy. They administered oral medications twice a day, took him outside constantly (he's on a diuretic), and allowed him to sleep in one of their beds. They sent pictures and updates while I was away, and their two little dogs were great company for mine. :) Would definitely use again!”
“Hannah and her family are so sweet! Cece really enjoys her time with them! We got the perfect amount of pictures and updates through out her stay. We will use Hannah every time we can from now on.”
“Sabrina was Great will Miss Ellie!! She was attentive and flexible to her needs. I received great feedback along with pictures and videos while I was away. Ellie was running and playing when I arrived to pick her up! Love Miss Sabrina!!!”
“Carly was fantastic and was able to watch my puppy on a short notice! She was very thorough and kept me up to date on how my pup was doing throughout the day and sent pics. Thank you Carly for giving me peace of mind while I was out of town and loving my fur baby. Would definitely use again! ☺️”

“Carola is a wonderful pet sitter & always takes great care of our Susie! Susie is very fond of Carola & Carola keeps me posted with pics & texts. We wouldn’t consider using any other sitter 😊”
“Jennifer and family went above and beyond watching our pet for 2 weeks as we traveled to the west coast. We did an initial meet-and-greet and knew immediately that this was the warm, inviting, caring family just right for our new pup. Floki fit right in and we left assured he would be loved on for the entire trip. Jennifer is a very kindhearted care giver and kept us in the loop with texts and photos. We will certainly use her again for our dog care:) Do not hesitate to hire her! A+. top tier.”
“At first you know, I was really skeptical and somebody watching my dogs. But this lady did a fantastic job. My dogs got to play all day. They got walks plus baths. My dog both really liked her and my female dog is usually skeptical on new people. She did an amazing job and I couldn’t ask for a better person to watch my dogs for me. I found my main person.”

“Lori was absolutely awesome! I’ve used Rover for years and Lori is probably the best Rover sitter I’ve met. She truly enjoys taking care of the pups in her care. Her own pups are very sweet. Her home is clean and located in a nice area that’s very conveniently located. Moose truly enjoyed his time with Lori. He settled right down and enjoyed all the walks. Lori sends pictures and video during the whole visit. You can’t go wrong leaving your pup with Lori.Thank you sooo much Lori. You are a lovely person and such a gift and a blessing! 💕🐾💕🐾💕🐾”
“We left our senior chihuahua (Jelli) with Shirley and Jeff for nearly 45 days - they are the only folks we can imagine leaving our girl with for such a long stay. They take such good care of her that we wonder if Jelli will want to come home with us when we return. I highly recommend Shirley and Jeff.”
“Very polite and punctual when picking up my fur baby. She communicated very well and sent pictures showing how much fun my baby was having!!! Will definitely be reaching out again when we need another sitter!!”
“I have never boarded before, or much less been away from my dog, but Samantha made me feel so relaxed! Sent pics and notes via text to ease my mind!! It helped so much!! Thank you!!

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 Mayday 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 Mayday.
<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 Mayday 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.
