“We love using Brandi. She sends picture updates daily and lets us know how our pup is doing. Sadie loves going to stay with Brandi’s family, playing and snuggling with her dog and her kids.”
“Stephanie took GREAT care of our two pups, and it gave us peace of mind to know that they were in such good and caring hands while we were away for a full week. Great communication, great caregiving, happy pups -- highly recommend!”
“My golden retriever had the BEST time staying with Kayley! This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased. She is super friendly and her dogs welcomed mine in during her stay. Exceeded my expectations ☺️”
“Our dog Lola had a great week with Pam!! We got updates and pictures most every day and Lola was so well cared for while we were gone. This was our first time using Rover and leaving Lola in someone else’s care other than at home with family so we were so thrilled with how well everything went. We will definitely be using Pam again! Thanks!!”
“Karie was amazing and Honey loved his holiday weekend with her. She made him feel so comforted during the fireworks and sent photos often to keep us updated on how he was doing. I'll be using Karie from now on when we go on vacation!”
“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.”
“I would recommend Carrie. She was great at communicating and sharing updates about our dog,Winnie’s, visit. Carie made Winnie feel right at home from the first moment of meeting her. Winnie had a great week with Carrie!”
“Crista was very responsive to messages and provided multiple pictures throughout our dog Murphy's stay. He seems to have had a blast and came home worn out from all the fun. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Another great stay with Megan! I was updated several times a day on how my girls were doing. I got photos along with an update. Definitely recommend Megan and Chris.”
“WOW! Barkfest at Tiffany’s was the perfect place for our furry BFF, Presley! We received regular updates with pictures, texts and videos assuring us that he did NOT miss us one bit as WE were missing him! Rest assured that you are leaving your pet in a great home where dogs are treated better than most people! ❤️”
“Tish was amazing with Bruno. Definitely felt like he was on vacation as we were:) he loved playing with their dogs in their backyard! Tish was super kind taking him for walks and hikes. She clearly loves dogs and all animals and we felt super confident leaving him with her. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“Thank you for watching Holli for me! Not sure she wanted to come home. She was happy and calm when she came home. I would recommend you to all my friends! Thank you for caring for my little Holli!”
“We had an excellent experience boarding with Jaxen! She was extremely flexible with us on drop off due to unforeseen circumstances. She has a very nice kennel house that was clean and spacious for the dogs and a large yard for them to run around in throughout the day! She sent us pictures of Ranger playing and he had a big smile on his face, so I’m sure he enjoyed his stay. Thank you!!”
“I cannot recommend Destiny highly enough. From the moment I first met her, I could immediately tell she had a warm, gentle, and genuinely kind spirit—the exact calm, reassuring energy I knew my anxious dog needed. Leaving a nervous pet in someone else’s care is never easy, but Destiny put all my worries to rest right away. She has an intuitive, patient approach to animals, understanding how to meet them at their own pace without pushing boundaries. Under her watchful and affectionate care, my dog felt completely safe, comfortable, and settled. Destiny is dependable, communicative, and truly attentive to every little routine and detail. It is rare to find someone who combines true professionalism with such heartfelt compassion. Anyone would be extraordinarily lucky to have Destiny care for their four-legged family member, and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Will & Jillian were great with Rosie and were great about sending pictures and communicating with us while we were away! We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Jonathan kept my dog really well. We went away for 20 days, and I always felt confident that Watson was well looked after. When I picked my dog up he couldn't believe I still existed. He'd completely adjusted to his new life;) We'll happily use Jonathan again, and I'd recommend him to anyone.”
“Avery was the perfect person for Pei!! Not only did Pei have the best time with Avery, but Avery constantly sent updates keeping me posted about my anxious elderly girl (who was NOT anxious AT ALL around her new BFF😁). We will definitely book with Avery again!”
“Justin is wonderful with Ky!! You can just see his excitement when I mention his name and especially when Justin shows up to pick Ky up! He's really great with him and I love that he takes him on hikes and sends pictures throughoutthe time that he has him! Justin is super dependable, even with last min bookings that come up. Always quick to respond and most importantly, takes the best care of my dog when I'm away.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ridgeside
Karie was a wonderful choice for boarding our cat and pup during our longer trip. Her home is welcoming with a safe backyard. She loved on my babies and gave them full freedom just as they are used to at home. Her dog was a sweetheart playmate that instantly hit it off with my pup and was equally respectful of my cat. In each picture she sent, my pets looked so at peace and well taken care of. I hope to book with Karie again in the future!
Alannah was amazing! She sent a nightly recap of the day with amazing pictures. She and her partner were such a great team, especially since Cooper was having a bad ear infection. They administered the meds with such patience, especially since my dog can be reactive around his face and ears. Alannah kept trying different techniques until she find a method that worked. She really went the extra mile, and I deeply appreciate her care and kindness with my pup. I highly recommend her!
Tamia is a treasure! She took care of my two elderly mini dachshund boys for 5 nights, and they thrived with her and her little son. She is an awesome person, and I truly feel that I have found a friend. We could not have hired a better pet sitter, and I will definitely use her again. I recommend her without reservation.

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 Ridgeside 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 Ridgeside.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Ridgeside 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.
