“Can’t say enough good about Gabbi and Justin! So thankful our dog had a safe and fun place to be while we were on vacation - it’s like our dog got a vacation, too! Thank you for everything, Gabbi and Justin. The daily updates were so wonderful, and the care that was shown to our dog was incredible. Highly recommend Gabbi and Justin if you’re looking for amazing dog sitters who will really care about your pets!!! We will definitely be having our pup go to Gabbi and Justin for any future needs! Again, thanks for everything, Gabbi and Justin!!!!!!”
“Jessica was an absolute life-saver. My family was moving and we were staying with relatives while we sold our home. All the updates and pictures were great, I know they were well loved and cared for. 10/10 would recommend, and rebook if I ever need to!”
“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 was amazing! She was fully engaged in communication when asked about our Brooks Ryan! She was kind and loving and we will definitely use her again when the time comes we need a sitter.”
“Best sitter ever! Zoey loves the whole family including her new pug cousins. Love all the pictures we are getting during her stay. Perfect fit for us. We will definitely be back :).”
“Maggie & Michael were absolute fantastic! They treated our Copper so well while we were away 😊 Best verbal & photo updating I’ve ever gotten from a Rover, which I loved! Would highly recommend!”
“Brent & Kaitlin treated our dog like a member of their family. They sent us pictures and texts daily keeping us updated on us how she was doing. We were so happy to know that she was in good hands and being well cared for while we were away. It’s so reassuring to know that we now have people we can trust to leave our sweet Dolly with when we can’t take her with us.”
“Crystal was great. My dog Toby just stayed with her for a week and a half and from all I can tell he was treated like and felt like part of the family. I received constant updates and pictures and in all he seemed to be either smiling, playing or cuddling or sometimes all three! I hope Toby gets a chance to spend time with Crystal and Barkley 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!”
“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!”
“Once again, Chandra and her family took such great care of Shuri! We really appreciate how flexible and accommodating she is! She keeps us updated with photos and videos, and we really couldn't ask for a better sitter for our baby!”
“Lavar and Amber are literally a second family to my baby. They love him so much and really care about him, which always makes me feel comfortable when I leave him in their care. Thank you both for loving Copper.”
“Kayla & Trevor were great with Hershey. Hershey is 13 1/2 years old and blind and they allowed her run of the house as if she were one of their pets. Will definitely use again should the need arise.”
“Amazing family and amazing experience! My pup Kasey LOVED staying with their family. She came home very very tired from all the playing she did. 10/10 would recommend”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
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.
