“I had my two dogs with Niyired for 6 days. They were well taken care of and they seemed happy in their boarding place. The place was clean and they had ample place to play. The sitter sent pics from time to time. I wished to get more pics as we missed our dogs a lot during the travel. But it was really nice of her to help us at the last minute when two other sitters canceled. We will surely use this sitter again.”

“Kayahja was wonderful with Carter! She was very attentive and made sure he was well cared for the entire time. I really appreciated how communicative she was keeping me updated and making me feel at ease. Carter was happy and comfortable, and I could tell he was in great hands.”

“We had a great experience leaving our dog here. It was obvious from the start that she was in good hands and being well cared for. We really appreciated the updates while we were away, and it was nice knowing she was getting plenty of attention and affection. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a good time. It’s never easy leaving your dog behind, but this made the whole process so much easier. We’d definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their dog.”


“Esther was such a wonderful blessing for our 13 year old Bichon. This experience was exceptional and my sweet boy came home happy and healthy. We received photos everyday of Rex’s “doggy vacation”. He thrived and loved this family. Thank You Esther for loving and taking such good care of Rex. We will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Haley is a very sweet and responsive host. We got updates throughout our trip and she worked well with us when our flight was delayed. The dogs were well cared for!”

“Brandon did a great job watching our dog Ellie while we left for the holidays. He had other dogs and a backyard for her to play. His house and sitting style was a great fit for our dog who likes smaller groups of dogs and to be with people a lot. Brandon sent us a lot of pictures and updates while he watched her. We wouldn’t hesitate to let her stay there again.”

“She took great care of my dog and was very kind and reliable. It’s our 2nd time with her!! I really appreciated the updates and the love she showed my pet. Highly recommend”

“Incredibly communicative, friendly and easy to work with. Chester clearly had a great time staying with Leah and I will absolutely hit her up the next time I need a sitter.”

“Pamela was great! Very responsive, accommodating, and took excellent care of Frankie for the entire week he was with her. Will definitely reach out to her again in the future when we need a sitter.”

“Lauren went above and beyond taking care of Cece! From the moment we left, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such great hands. Lauren sent so many photos and updates of Cece clearly having the best time while on walks, hanging out, and enjoying lots of cuddles. It honestly felt like Cece was living her best life while we were gone. If I could rate Lauren 10 out of 10, I absolutely would. I can’t recommend her highly enough! Thank you, Lauren, for taking such great care of Cece!”

“Amanda was fantastic! She was responsive and very flexible when we needed to add an extra night to Charlie’s stay. She kept us updated with photos and Charlie seemed to really like her ❤️ We will absolutely book her again for future trips.”

“Rigby had a great time with Scott and his son. He was well cared for and we received lots of great photo updates everyday. Thank you for taking great care of our pup!”

“Lily was so good with our Charlie! We felt at ease knowing he was well loved and taken care of. She was great at sending us pictures and updates. Will definitely use Lily anytime we go out of town to care for our fur baby.”

“Troy is the best! Our pup was super comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. We got frequent updates, Zook loved the back yard, and super convenient for getting to the airport for a weekend trip! Absolutely will book with him again.”

“Molly was great! We went on a long weekend trip and our dog seemed very happy and comfortable there. She even took her on a 5 mile walk! We will definitely be using Molly in the future!”

“Cyndie was great! Her home is super accommodating and setup perfectly for sitting. Our pup couldn’t have had a better experience. If Cyndie will have him, he will be back!”

“Olivia was excellent! Myles truly loved the love and attention he received 😊 which makes mama’s heart happy too. Would definitely rebook against. Thank you Olivia.”

“I’m new to the area, and was lucky enough to find Liz to watch Piper. From our initial meet and greet to her first visit; Liz made the process very easy, communicated extremely well and treated Piper like family. I highly recommend her to anyone.”

We had such a wonderful experience with Valerie! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous about leaving our dog with someone new, especially since he’s older and a little socially awkward. But he absolutely loved her, which made us feel so much more at ease. She was very kind, attentive, and easy to communicate with. Her car was also incredibly clean, which we really appreciated when she picked him up. She was also very accommodating with our travel plans, which was so kind and made everything much easier for us. We’re so happy we found her, and we would definitely have her watch our dog again. Highly recommend!

Konnor was beyond excellent in communication and response time. She remained flexible with changing drop off/pick up times. I appreciated her availability on a busy holiday weekend. We wanted to keep our pup in a safe environment and she made sure he was well taken care of while sending pics and videos. Highly recommend Konnor and would book again when in the area.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Old Hickory on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,713 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Old Hickory. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Old Hickory sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Old Hickory landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Old Hickory 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 Old Hickory.
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.
You and your Old Hickory 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.
