“Jodi was so good with my little poodle Mia. It was my first time leaving her with someone. She went the extra mile to help Mia settle in and kept me updated with lots of pictures and videos. Mia seemed to have a great time playing and napping with Jodi’s two dogs. I’m afraid she isn’t going to like being back home with me. ☺️”
“Jonathan and Saori took great care of my maltese mix doggo. Plenty of walks and it looked like my dog loved the company of their dog. 10/10 would use them again! They also sent pics every day which we loved!”
“Megan and Kerry were great! They took great care of Bud and we could tell he was very happy. We are very happy Bud had a friend to play with and took plenty of walks. Thank you so much :)”
“Tara was so great with our puppy. Easy going, sent us pictures of him throughout. She let him snuggle in bed with her! She kept us informed and we would definitely use her again! Thanks Tara”
About: Ive had pets throughout my life growing up but I became a full time dog/cat mom about 16 yrs ago. I couldn't imagine having a household without pets! I have a 14 yr old cat and we just lost the last of our 3 dogs in September. (we had 3 boxers- Tyson- 10 yrs, passed in 2021, Sadie-11 1/2, passed May 2026 and Bailey-10 yrs, passed Sept 2026) Ive volunteered at a few different animal shelters in TN and FL throughout many years. Until we are healed and ready to get our next fur baby, I would love to be able to give your babies the attention and care that they need while you cant be there and take the stress out of having to be away. I work from home and have a fenced backyard where they can enjoy playtime or just lounging in the sun. My cat will not be in household when I have a boarding reservation. I will only watch one family's pet/pets at a time. I'm a remote employee who is available to be with your dogs all day/night in my home. I can provide palytime/ cuddles throughout the day as well as a short walk if requested. I have a fenced backyard as well as a ramp that dogs with joint issues or medical issues can use. In my home, my dogs were allowed anywhere but I will adhere to your preference for your dogs.

“We brought Trixie to Winter as the first person who wasn’t family or friends to keep her so we were a little nervous! Well we shouldn’t have been she was so wonderful with our baby! She sent pictures and it was obvious she was having a blast! We will definitely use her again to keep our precious pup!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous, my girl is my whole world. Brynn was just absolutely amazing! We did a meet and greet first which was great, and then Kimura really had the best time during her stay! I can’t say enough good things. I got regular updates, and I truly felt my girl was being really cared for. I’m so grateful she had such a smooth and great time. :) definitely recommend!!”
“Christina was an exceptional host. She went above and beyond to keep me informed about how my little girl was adjusting. I felt my dog was safe and being cared for with love and receiving lots of attention and curated care. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Christina and her family again. She was friendly, helpful and a great caretaker. We will definitely use her again.”
“This was my first time using rover, so I was a little nervous. Jenny watched my two dogs - Fischer and Fiona. She sent picture updates where my dogs looked comfortable and right at home. I would definitely use her for the future ! It was nice to see my dogs get lots of attention and play with her children too. THANKS JENNY!”
“Rachael was super nice and very responsive. Great fenced backyard oasis for my dog pepper. Also a cute neighborhood for walks. Pepper was so excited and happy when we picked her up! Will definitely work with Rachael again!!!”
“Madison was ready for KeniLu. She helped take his baggage into the house. We made sure KeniLu was comfortable. He was so eager to explore he didn’t notice when I said Goodbye. She sent pictures of my happy pet. I was very happy he had a nice home away from home.”
“Tish took such good care of Benson. He was totally exhausted when we got him home. Which was great because so were we! He will be looking forward to staying with Tish in the future.”
“Joe was absolutely wonderful with our dog Nova this weekend! He sent us lots of pictures which we appreciated. Our dog is recovering from a leg surgery, so she couldn’t be around other dogs (she likes playing too much!). Joe was the perfect house for her. Definitely recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Old Hickory
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!

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 .
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.

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.
