“Allison did a fine job with our dog. She is a decent sized dog, about 80 pounds. But she is often rather timid around strangers. We just needed one night and it worked out fine.”
“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.”
“This was our first time ever boarding our dog. Hayley was super friendly and helpful and made us feel very comfortable in leaving our dog. He was definitely worn out when we picked him up. We wanted to get him socialized with other dogs and children and Hayley made that possible. We have already booked her for our next vacation. Bandit was a happy and tired boy.”
“Shannon and Barbara took wonderful care of my dog, Bunny. I could not be more grateful and impressed. They had wonderful response times and answered any questions I had since it was my first time leaving Bunny with someone outside of family. They updated me frequently and made this whole process a dream. Definitely planning on rebooting with them in the future!”
“This was my first time boarding my puppy and I‘m pretty sure she didn’t want to leave Brandon’s house when I came to pick her up. She had tons of playtime and I was so happy to hear she settled in well with the pack and made friends! I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was in good hands.”
“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.”
“I was new to Rover; Amanda was a great communicator, she answered all of my questions promptly. She sent updates while we were away along with cute pictures, which my family all appreciated. I loved that she took him on long walks! Returning home, our dog is happy and tired. I would happily recommend Amanda!”
“Dianne was great with my dog Tahoe! She was always super responsive and sending regular updates or photos of him. I could tell Tahoe felt very at home and safe with her which was a huge relief to me while I was away for the week! Would absolutely reach out to Dianne again the next time Tahoe needs a sitter!”
“Our dog, Max, loved his stay with Scott! He was really happy to see us, but I could tell how relaxed and happy he was when we picked him up. We were on a ship for most of the time away and didn't have any cell service. When we reached a port, all the daily pics and messages would come and I could tell Max was enjoying himself a lot! He had a lot of doggy companions to play with and send to have bonded with Scott and his son❤️ Thank you, we will definitely use Scott 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”
“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!”
“Neyla really helped us out in a very short notice pinch. She took impeccable care of our baby who returned home in the best of spirits. It was such a relief to know that she was in good hands while we were gone. All the photos that were sent during our pups visit made it easy to tell what a great time she was having. Thanks again!”
“Nathan and his family were so helpful and kind to take care of our girl when we needed help with boarding her for the day last minute. It was my first time boarding with her but I felt totally at ease after reading the other reviews and then meeting them upon drop-off. I would happily bring our dog back for another stay if we needed again.”
“We live in a screwed up world so my Bella helps me get thru the day. So I like to leave her when I have to with someone who is a true dog lover and Mrs Kathrine is that person. I don’t like dealing with a whole lot of people so hopefully I can let Bella enjoy a stay with her 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!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Old Hickory
Dre took such great care of my dog, Millie, while I was away for a weekend trip! I could tell in all of the photos/videos that she was having so much fun and was so comfortable with her new friends. Dre was communicative and provided detailed updates that truly put me at ease. I would absolutely ask her to watch Millie for me again and recommend her to friends.
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.

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.
