“Lola seemed to really enjoy her stay with Tish. She had lots of sweet furry friends to hang out with while we were away. She came back to us calm and relaxed like she'd been at a spa. I highly recommend Tish as a sitter. She is clearly experienced with many different dog breeds and has a perfect demeanor for putting your pup at ease. You can relax knowing your best friend is in good hands.”
“Megan is great! We were totally comfortable leaving our anxious pup with her. She provided daily updates and Mo seemed to appreciate her company throughout the week.”
“Maverick loved his stay with Christina! He has been napping ever since he got home which is an excellent sign that he had plenty of play time! Christina is extremely detailed oriented. She was the only pet sitter I've used that actually reached out to ask about the bone and joint supplement I put in Mavericks bag and what time of day to give it to him since I didn't mention it initially when dropping him off. It showed her level of commitment to each dog that stays with her. I 100% trust her to watch my pup. We will be using her again!”
About: I currently have a bloodhound and 4 cats, as well as a foster dog. My had my last dog for 15 years, so I am very experienced in senior dog care. Old doggos have a special place in my heart. I am self employed so I have a fairly flexible schedule so I can usually work around anything that might be needed or come up. I have a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door so dogs have constant access to the back yard. I also walk dogs 1-2 times a day.
“My cat Willow had such a great time! I loved getting pictures everyday to see how she was doing. She was cared for so well! I’m so glad there’s someone close by that I can trust to help out with my animals!!”
“I highly recommend Katie and Cedar! Jake just spent four nights with them and although he was glad to see me, he was very happy and comfortable with them! They have a fenced in backyard and Jake absolutely loved running and chasing cedar who was a lot of fun to be with and likes to play. Katie is a sweetheart and I have a lot of confidence in her abilitie to keep Jake safe, AND that he would enjoy being with them. Jake is excited to have a new place to go and stay. Thank you!”
“This was my first time using Rover. I was nervous. Pam was perfect for my pup Jack. She was kind and compassionate, sent me multiple pics of Jack while he was there and he was a happy camper when I picked him up. Will definitely reach out again for Pam. 💛”
“Di'Ara was amazing! She took my dogs last minute, (due to a previous sitter bailing on us) and was so understanding about our old boy. She gave them lots of love, sent pics frequently, and even had back up dishes, since ours fell out in the truck. She is awesome! Highly recommend. If we lived in the area, she'd be out go-to girl.”
“I am so grateful and satisfied with Giulia services. She was flexible and her entire family were very loving to Scarlette. She and her family took care of Scarlette like it was her own dog. She sent me pictures with updates and Scarlette returned home very happy. Great person, great family. I highly recommend her. Thank you Giulia.”
“As always Justin is THE man to care for your pet. Bear comes back happy and tired every time. Just recently took Bear and his buddies for a beach trip. I had no stress about sending Bear to another state, Justin always sends pictures, updates, and makes sure they have a safe but fun time.”
“Absolutely fantastic!!! Sonja and Yolanda treated Remi like he was their own dog. Daily update pictures and videos, and consistent communication. They also took him in for two more days after a flight cancellation. I cant be more thankful!!!”
About: Your fur babies will be treated like my own while in my care. I'm home all day, have a fenced backyard, and am close to walking trails. While I don't currently have a pet of my own, I have experience with cats and dogs, young and old, and will give your family member the best of care. Your fur baby will be my job while in my care. I'm available 24/7 for belly rubs, walks, snuggles, and treats. Whether it's snoozing inside or sunning outside, your little one makes the call. My backyard is small but fenced, and very secure. Yours can be the only dog or cat if necessary, as I don't currently have any of my own. You'll get lots of pictures and daily check-ins.
“Nash had a super great experience with Ivey (and Milo). We had a last minute change to our trip and she was more than willing to help us. Nash made himself right at home and was very well taken care of. We are so thankful and appreciative for finding Ivey.”
“Charish did a fantastic job with our Sheepadoodle, Nooga for an overnight stay. We did a meet and greet the week before her stay. While we were gone we got updates with pictures! Nooga seemed to be content and enjoyed her stay. Really appreciate The Charish took to love on our girl!”
“Taylor [& her husband] were amazing! They took such great care of my dog / 2-year-old puppy! And their dog Maggie was lovely too. I know Archie had a fabulous time as after I picked him up in the morning - he literally napped all day! I will definitely have Archie stay with them again!”
About: I’ve taken care of my brothers, friends, and family’s dogs periodically throughout the decades and have now personally had my own pup for going on 3 years. I make it a point to give each dog, whether it’s mine or someone’s else’s a fun and good life to live. A dormant unattended to dog bothers me to no end so your dog would be in not only great hands but hands that will actively pursue making your dad have the best day! I currently work weekends at the hospital so most of my week days are free and clear! I’m a natural night owl so being up late isn’t a problem either I live in a fenced/gated town home community with extremely friendly neighbors who all have dogs. We have a gated dog park for all the dogs to mingle and play as well as many parks and fields surrounding the home to where they can get exercise! Each dog will be directly cared for 1 on 1 with me in my townhome to ensure proper care
“David was my first choice and I'm thankful he was available. He was very accommodating. Our cocker spaniels were at ease with him. He made our vacation much more enjoyable by creating space just for them and providing updates. I highly recommend his care for your fur babies.”
About: I grew up with dogs and just adopted my two (from photo) back in 2020. After years of just fostering and caring for a variety of dogs and volunteering at local shelters. I started doing petsits around the same time and I love it. I usually work 8am to 5pm, and am off on weekends. I am able to do lunch drop ins and check on your dog as regurlarly as you need me to. I have two small dogs of my own, they are very shy and usually get along with any dog, maybe also because they usually just ignore them and sleep. they are around 13yo (rescue dogs)
“Stephanie has a terrific set up for dogs and KC was very excited to explore as soon as he got there. Stephanie took excellent care of my quirky rescue and gave me updates even though it was only a one-night stay. KC will be going back this week, and it's great knowing he will be in such good hands.”

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 Palmer 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 Palmer.
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 Palmer 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.
