“I don't use Rover very often, and am quite hesitant about leaving our pup with new people. However, Kandace made me feel at ease from her friendly demeanor and questions to ensure Ginger's comfort in her stay. I received photos throughout her stay, and her happiness is clear in the photos. We have found our go-to Rover sitter!”
“Heather was great! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. She did great with our dog and kept us up to date on her activity with photos and videos.”
“I left my older german shepherd Apollo with Roy for a week and it was a great experience! He gave me updates, gave him his medicine as instructed and took great care of him. If I needed a dog sitter again he would be my first choice!”
“Miranda was an excellent choice to board our dog Freddie. We received daily updates with pictures and videos of him having a blast running around her yard. It was a huge relief during the hectic holiday season. We will absolutely choose Miranda again, thank you !!”
“We have been going to Ruff runs for a few years now and will continue to go back as long as we are here! We absolutely love how our dogs get treated and loved in just as if they were at home. We also look forward to our pictures we get while we are gone. 10/10 absolutely recommend, again and again!”
“Great communication and our dog had a great time! Olivia made our dog feel so comfortable and she came back home very happy. We will definitely use Olivia's services again.”
“Kaylee was amazing with our 2 sweet Newfies, Poppy and Nova! She sent photos everyday while we were away playing with her family, walking to the school bus, and when we picked them up they were so happy and calm - you could tell they had a wonderful time with her 🐾💕🐾”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs basicly all my life. I currently have an Australian Shepherd that is five years old. He is good with other dogs. He has separation anxiety, so I know how to take care of that as well. I work full-time at the University. I go on daily walks with my own dogs. I’m pretty free after work. You’re dog will feel at home:) I have a fenced in yard and I live in a house, so I have plenty of space for your pet. I also make sure that they get plenty of exercise.
“If you are looking for someone to watch your furbaby and give them all the care and love you would, choose Christy!! My husband and I have a one year old mini aussie shepard (Zelda) with moderate separation anxiety. We went on our first trip without her and this was also our first time having someone that wasn't family watch Zelda. We were so nervous to be leaving her with someone we didn't know, but after the meet and greet we knew right away Christy was going to take excellent care of her. She sent us updates throughout our trip with pictures and we never once worried about Zelda's safety. This whole experience has been incredible and I would give 10 stars if I could! Zelda absolutely loves her and we will choose Christy from now on ❤”
“Moneissa really does a great job at making both pet and parent feel comfortable! As someone who always feels uneasy leaving their dog with someone else, I was fully confident my dog was in great care with Moneissa. If you love solid updates and reassurance, she is the sitter for you! Eevee had so much fun during her stay and will be visiting again!”
“Jennifer is the best. We have two weims and they just love her. Both are needy in their own way & she loves them each in their own unique way! I am always at ease when I leave my dogs with Jennifer, & I am VERY picky about who I leave them with. She sends pictures and updates. She is the best!”
“What an amazing place to leave our fur baby. Jen and her kids were amazing to our dog. Jen sent me pics of our dog throughout his stay. Great communication too! Will definitely use again.”
About: Hi, I’m Leslie! I’ve had pets my entire life, so I understand how much trust it takes to place your dog in someone else’s care. I share my home with Bowie, my French bulldog, and Gordon and Ramsay, my two cats. Caring for Bowie has made me especially attentive to the little things—changes in breathing, appetite, mobility, behavior, or comfort—and taught me how important it is to follow each dog’s individual routine closely. I’m comfortable caring for dogs who need extra patience or individualized attention, including seniors and dogs with special feeding, mobility, or medication. I’m dependable, organized, and comfortable following detailed instructions. Although I’m not a veterinary professional, I am calm, observant, and serious about following owner and veterinarian guidance carefully. Whether your dog stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. You can expect dependable care, clear communication, regular photos, and honest updates—because I know how much peace of mind matters when you’re away. My daytime schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, doggy day care, and boarding without rushing through visits. I plan each booking carefully so I can give your dog individual attention while maintaining their normal feeding, potty, exercise, medication, and rest schedule. For house sitting and extended stays, I’ll confirm timing and expectations with you before booking. For boarding and day care, dogs have supervised access to my fenced yard. My home is also shared with Bowie, my French bulldog, and Gordon and Ramsay, my two cats. A meet-and-greet is important so we can make sure everyone is a safe and comfortable match. Guest dogs must be able to coexist safely with both dogs and cats. Introductions are gradual and closely supervised. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, crating, leashing, sleeping arrangements, and household boundaries. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both their routine and their space. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and care instructions and provide updates throughout the visit. I’m especially mindful of heat sensitivity, breathing limitations, and mobility needs in flat-faced, senior, and special-needs dogs.
“Sandra and her family were great with Bella! Sandra provided photo updates throughout Bella’s stay, which was great. She was also very accommodating to Bella’s individual needs. I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs throughout my entire life, beginning when I was six years old. Over the past nine years of my military career, I have also gained extensive experience caring for pets while service members were away for field exercises, missions or other military obligations. These experiences have taught me to be responsible, dependable and attentive to individual needs of each animal. I understand the importance of providing consistent care, maintaining routines, and ensuring that pets are safe, comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. Although I work full time, I have flexible availability outside of work. I am available for pet care and boarding on weekends and on weekdays after 6:00 p.m., allowing me to provide your pets with attentive and reliable care during my available hours. I have a fully fenced yard where pets can safely play and enjoy some outdoor time. Our neighborhood also has several nearby parks and a large open field close to our home, providing plenty of opportunities for walks, exercise, and exploration. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping them comfortable and maintaining their normal routine. I will follow the owners instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and other daily routines. I will also treat the home with the same care and respect I would want for my own home, keeping the space clean and secure while providing the pet with plenty of attention and companionship.

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.
97% of sitters in Palmyra can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Palmyra home-away-from-home, 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 Palmyra.
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 Palmyra 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 , 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 .
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.
