“Will absolutely book again! Moneissa went above and beyond to accommodate my senior pitbull, Lola. She sent daily photos and updates of Lola enjoying the spacious, fenced-in backyard, which gave me so much peace of mind. Because Lola has mobility issues, Mo thoughtfully created a special setup in her home to support her needs and handled her daily medications and diaper changes with care. I’m incredibly grateful for the attention and compassion she showed—highly recommend!”
About: As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust. I have experience with daily routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they deserve. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and fun experience for every animal I care for. I currently work from home, so I spend a lot of time with our dog, Emmy, fiancé and our baby. We are usually pretty free on the weekends as well We have a fenced yard and would love to have another dog to come hangout with our cockapoo! We have plenty of toys, space and time for playing
“Niyired is amazing! Jack was calm and relaxed when I picked him up after 3 days. I took him back to her today and he walked right in the door and went downstairs... didn't even say good-bye. 🤣 10/10. Very glad we found her!”
“Austin was incredible, and I would absolutely use him again! He sent me updates multiple times a day about how my dog was doing, pictures etc. He truly loves and cares about dogs, and is one of the best sitters I've ever used on Rover. Thank you so much!”
“Juniper and I love Ashley! She is the best and always send such good pictures! Her pups also play with Juni and make sure she comes home nice and sleepy!”
“Chase had such a great time staying with Ritch and his family. He had so much fun playing ball, going on walks and exploring the backyard! We loved getting pictures of him during his stay too! Chase will definitely be back next time we travel!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Jessica From the moment we met, it was clear that my dog was in the best hands possible. She went above and beyond—sending daily updates and photos, making sure my pup got plenty of exercise, and giving tons of love and attention. When I came home, my dog was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for (maybe even a little disappointed to see me instead of CoCo 😄). It’s such a relief to have someone so reliable, caring, and professional. I’ll absolutely be booking again and recommending [him/her/them] to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter”
“This was our first time leaving our puppy and Asia made the experience seamless. She sent us photos and updates several times a day which eased any anxiety I had about leaving her and our kids loved being able to see her awhile away. Asia even took the time to meet us in person prior to the boarding stay. We would and will book with Asia again! She’s wonderful!”
“Ashley's wonderful!! Very trustworthy and loving, with our Willow. She gets great care and lots of TLC! Lots of pics and updates. We highly recommend Ashley!!”
“Julie and Josiah take great care of my dog! They are easy to communicate with and have been very understanding when things come up with traveling etc! Will be booking again 😊”
“Katie was so sweet with Murphy, she graciously let us do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure he and Margot were buddies (they got on famously), and was very communicative about his time there, and was diligent in administering his twice daily medications. She was flexible working with our drop off and pick up schedule and I look forward to booking with her again if the need arises!”
“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! ❤️🐾”
“This is the second time June stayed with Laura, and Laura was amazing again! June wasn't eating her food and Laura made her an egg and gave her some baby food and she was back to a happy, eating June! Thank you for another great stay!”
“Natalia is fantastic! Provided excellent care for our boy Zeus, to include his extra needs of his inhaler nightly. Would recommend to anyone looking for care! Plan to be a repeat customer!”
“Margaret is the absolute best!!! Our dog loved her stay and I can tell that Margaret treats her like she’s her own. We are so happy to have found such a great sitter.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oaklawn
We have a senior dog that is usually watched by a pet sitter at our house, but we had to find other arrangements for our family vacation. They took great care of Minnie and sent several pictures to show me how she was doing which gave me peace of mind. I am very thankful for the care that showed our girl.

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 Oaklawn home-away-from-home, 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 Oaklawn.
<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 Oaklawn 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 , 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 .
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.
