“Konnor was fantastic! She was very responsive and did an excellent job updating me and communicating to me on the status of my dog. Highly recommended and will use her again.”
“We left our pups with Katherine twice now and both times they came home so happy (and tired!). She was very responsive and flexible with our flight delays. We are sad that our time in Nashville has come to an end and wish we could take her (and Bronco) with us!”
“Michelle and Bryce were so sweet with Archie, sending photos and updates and treating him like one of their own. They went above and beyond with enrichments like a special puzzle toy for him to use to get treats. He was so happy there. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for caring sitters and look forward to Archie staying with them again in the future!”
“Aubrey was the best sitter - we are so lucky to have found her! Cowboy had a blast staying with her and making new friends and she was great at providing daily updates. Will definitely book with her again she took such great care of our dog!”
“Danielle and Joel took amazing care of our dog Zoey and treated her like one of their own. We were sent lots of updates and pictures during the stay. Zoey was happy the entire time and is looking forward to another stay!”
“Margaret was fantastic. Our pup was so well cared for, and he was very active the whole time (per his Fi collar). She sent us great videos and pictures everyday and was flexible with pick up/drop off times with us when we thought our plane might get delayed.”
“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.”
“We feel so comfortable leaving our girl at her "home away from home" with Tara and Adam! We know they take great care of her and provide us plenty of updates and photos while we are away. Thanks guys!”
“Laura was fantastic! Dela loved her and had a wonderful time at her house. She was very communicative and even sent photos and videos. Dela will definitely be returning.”
About: A Loving Home Away From Home for Your Dog! I’m a lifelong dog lover with experience caring for dogs of many breeds. I’ve owned more than 10 dogs throughout my life, so I understand how much our furry family members mean to us! I work from home, which means your pup gets plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. Our 5-member family are all dog lovers, so your dog will have lots of love, playtime, and cuddles. Our home has a fully fenced-in 0.25 acre backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air and exercise. We also have a dog doorbell, so pups can let us know when they want to go outside or come back in. When your dog stays with us, they aren't just being watched—they're becoming part of our family! Since I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, so pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I can easily let them outside for potty breaks, with our doggy doorbell. I care for pets in my home, where they can enjoy a fully fenced-in backyard for safe play and outdoor time. I also have a friendly dog who loves having new furry friends to keep her company! I work from home, so pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, and love throughout the day.
“Molly was the most amazing sitter! She was so attentive to my old baby boy and a great communicator! Being an older dog mom, I’m always apprehensive about leaving Trooper for long periods of time because he’s very attached to me and needs more TLC than most dogs. Molly was very accommodating and patient with him until he adjusted. I highly recommend her!!!”
About: I am an experienced loving pet provider. I grew up in a home filled with dogs, cats, rats, guinea pigs, fish. My children were raised with an amazing Rottweiler, and in spit of my allergies I have had cats. I am good with small dogs and large active breeds. I'm retired now and dedicating myself to full-time pet care. My home is set up for dogs. I have crates available if needed. I have a fully fenced backyard that provides space to run and play. I believe in feeding a healthy diet and proving outside exercise for dogs. If you need a responsible dog lover to care for your family pet, I may be able to help. Call me ....Shirlee With my flexible schedule I have the ability to make your pet cat or dog special needs my priority. All pets are special and deserve love and attention. I'm retired. So I do a lot of boarding here at the house which is set up for dogs. I will accept one or two drop ins or walks during the day that are a reasonable distance. If I get an order, I pop out and then I return home to my dogs who are here, including my own first thing on the list potty break. I have the ability to create a dog or keep them in a room to themselves or with a buddy. I always leave them with Water. I have a five year-old husky who loves company. She is great with all dogs small or large. I have a fully fenced backyard. I have multiple dog beds in back rooms in the living room, and I have crates for when they are needed. I've also recently started using pet aromatherapy throughout the house to create a soothing, relaxing environment for dogs.
“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!”
“Erid & Cheryl are amazing! I have 2 Bichon brothers who have separation anxiety and Erid & Cheryl took such good care of them that I'm not sure they missed us! They listened carefully to the care instructions and recommendations and just let this nervous dog mom talk. I felt confident leaving my precious boys in their care. I highly recommend Erid and Cheryl. They treated my boys like family.”
“Very trustworthy and responsive with updates daily. We left our 2 dogs with her while out of the country for a week. The dogs came back happier than when we left them. We plan to try to use again and recommend them.”
“Lisa is awesome! Nothing more I can say other than that. We were nervous because it was our first time boarding and Lisa was so accommodating with communication and making us feel at ease. We will definitely be using Lisa again!”
About: As a devoted small-dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pup. I work from home, so I’m able to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and snuggles throughout the day. One of the reasons I’m excited to start pet sitting is that I’d love for my own pup to have a little dog friend to hang out with while I work—and I love the idea of helping another dog parent at the same time! My dog is a huge part of my life, and any pup staying with us will be treated like part of the family too. I specialize in small dogs and am comfortable caring for puppies. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and make their stay feel as comfortable and familiar as possible. Whether your pup wants a playmate, a walking buddy, a spot next to me while I work, or lots of couch snuggles, they’ll get plenty of love and attention here. And of course, you can expect lots of photos and updates so you know your little one is happy and in good hands! 🐾💕 I work from home during the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to make your pup part of my daily routine! I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. I also love taking advantage of beautiful days and spending as much time outside as possible, so your pup can enjoy plenty of fresh air, sunshine, and outdoor time with me. 🐾☀️ Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat every dog as if they were my own—with lots of love, attention, and affection. My home is especially well suited for small dogs, and since I work from home, I’m able to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your pup’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable and at home, whether they love playtime, outdoor adventures, couch snuggles, or simply having a cozy spot nearby while I work. My goal is for your pup to feel like part of the family while they’re here—and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and very loved. Of course, you can expect plenty of photo updates along the way! 🐾💕

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Old Hickory
Leah was amazing with Nelson! From the very beginning, she was so responsive and made me feel completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. You can tell right away how much she genuinely loves dogs, and Nelson was clearly happy and well cared for. It meant a lot to know he was with someone so kind and attentive while I was away. I’ll absolutely be booking with Leah again!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
