“Isabella was a great host for our two pups! They were very content when we picked them up, got lots of outside time, and she went out of her way to send pictures and updates that were very appreciated. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Edward and Margarette (grace), were SO AMAZING. They sent pictures and detailed updates everyday and cared for my dog like she was their own. Every time I go out of town now, I will be seeing if they’re available! They’re so friendly and welcoming. My dog is shy around new people but she loved them so much and was cuddling them every night! 10/10 recommend.”
“Adrienne wad very affordable, caring, and attentive. She watched over Simba like he was her own. Simba is very shy and before he left he was playing with.not only her dog but with her cat as well. This is the first time we needed to have someone watch Simba, we could not have picked a better sitter. I highly recommend Adrienne.”
“Crystal was wonderful with my boy Sox. She played with him and he loved her pup Barkley!She kept me abreast of how he was doing with pictures. She treated him with love and respect! We will definitely book with her again.”
“Jessica took such great care of our baby, Shuri! With daily updates and pictures, we were able to enjoy our time away without worrying. We are so appreciative and look forward to booking with Jessica again!”
“Maribel and her family were amazing! They took care of our dog for a week and he had a blast. She sent us pics daily and gave us updates. Our dog seemed so happy and content with them. She took such good care of him, it made me at ease while I was away. I highly recommend her. And her sweet boys kept him busy!”
“Robin was very responsive and easy to work with. She is a magnet for my dogs! They loved her immediately. I felt perfectly comfortable leaving my babies in her care. She has a fenced in backyard, and works from home, so I knew they would be well supervised and cared for.”
“Chelsea and her family including the pug pack are absolutely awesome. Zoey fit right in and got to be part of the pack. Phenomenal care, communication, and lots of pictures. We are already booked for the next sleepover at PugCamp. Thanks for the peace of mind :).”
About: Hi! I’m a high school teacher who teaches culinary arts. At home, I have a golden retriever, Saffron and a Labradoodle, Leo. I live on 2 1/2 acres, one of which is fenced in and perfect for furry friends to run and play! I am a teacher and gone from 7 am to 3:30 pm, but my parents live next door and watch my animals when I am away. Growing up, my brother had a service dog who was part Great Dane and part Black Lab. He became part of the family! I think that’s what started my love for animals. Since college, I’ve had at least one pet. While in Culinary school, I worked long hours. For Christmas, I got my cat, Basil. She was at the door with a “meow” at the end of long days in the kitchen. When I began my career as a culinary teacher, I bought my first house with a back yard and almost immediately added my girls, Sage and Sketch to the household! I work full time as a high school teacher. but live next door to my parents who watch over my pets. They love them as if they were their own! I have an acre, fenced in back yard. My dogs love the country, running and playing in the back yard! They are house dogs, but love the chance to run as much as possible.
“We were so fortunate to find Pam and utilize her dog-sitting services (our first time to use Rover as well). It had been a while since we had boarded our two "girls", and we had a lengthy vacation in Europe planned. We connected with Pam through Rover and conducted a site visit. Great property and set-up for dog-sitting, and it was comforting to meet Pam, learn of her experience keeping pets, and were assured by her confidence and comfort level in keeping pets. While on our trip, Pam provided timely updates and photos of the girls, and even alerted us to a potential health issue with one of them. We had a great experience using Pam and highly recommend her!”
“This family was AMAZING. I have three dogs and it has been hard for me previously to find someone who can take in all 3 at once. Kaitlin and her husband took them in and loved on my babies all weekend. They had a mini party with our dogs and she was in regular communication with me. Our dogs got the chance to socialize with other dogs and children, which for “pandemic puppies” was needed experience. I cannot recommend them enough and I can only hope our dogs can come back in the future!”
“Sarah and her family were wonderful. I was able to book short notice within 1 week, and they took great care of our dog. He was a clean and happy puppy when we picked him up, and he made some new doggie friends. We will definitely be using Sarah and her family again.”
“Sarah took the best care of my girl Piper. We had already had a meet and greet, but Sarah slowly introduced her dogs to Piper over about 24-36 hours once she was there for her stay, which I really appreciated, Piper can get overwhelmed quickly in situations with meeting too many pups at once. Piper had her own space the entire time if she needed it and I think she even took over the guest bed at one point lol. Sarah could not have been more communicative throughout the entire stay sending updates every morning and evening, including 3-4 pictures every time. Piper will be back to see Sarah and her family for sure.”
“We are so thankful for Candice and Matt, and their sweet children, for giving our two pups a fun, safe and loving vacation home while we were out of town! One of our pups has a severe allergy and Candice and Matt were very comfortable and had experience with how to handle a potential issue, which really put our minds at ease. We knew our pups were in the best hands! They also sent updates and photos every day, and we were so happy to see our pups running around their beautiful yard and fitting right into the family. We absolutely recommend Candice and Matt to care for your furbabies!”
“Kayla and Trevor are honestly the best! They send lots of pics and give updates on what the dogs have been doing each day. Daisy always has the best time when she’s staying with them. They care for my dog just like they do their own. I will continue to use Kayla and Trevor!”
“Great people, my dog was happy and healthy when I picked him up. Extra kudos to them because they helped me out and came and picked him up. Great people, will be using them again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Katie! She gave us complete peace of mind while caring for our fur baby, Old Sport, our Pomapoo. We received regular updates and pictures, and Katie was always very communicative throughout the stay. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We will definitely be using her again for any future needs!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Rockvale on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,209 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rockvale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Rockvale sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Rockvale landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Rockvale 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 Rockvale.
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 Rockvale 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.
