“Cassy and her family were fantastic with my Persephone. Persephone was so happy. Cassy keeps you we'll informed and is highly recommended for anyone wanting a home away from home for your pup!”
“Quincy had a nice time with Donna. She slept in a large crated area and played in her fenced yard. It was a great spot to board our dog when we stayed in a rental house in the area that did not allow dogs.”
“Elexis was amazing!! From the get go they communicated well and eased my mind when it came to knowing my pup was in good hands!! At the end of his boarding I could tell that he had an amazing stay!! So much love for this sitter!!”
“We really appreciate Joseph taking care of Teddy. Teddy didn't want to leave when we picked him up. Its always hard to leave your pet but Joseph made us feel at ease instantly.”
“Tracy was fantastic with Dolly. She sent pictures showing the fun they were having. We felt so comfortable knowing Dolly was taken care of while we were on vacation near by. Would recommend Tracy to anyone looking for a good place to have their dog stay.”
“Allyson and Tyler were so great with Daisy!! They truly treated her like family and she had such a great time playing with the other dogs!! Such a better experience for her than traditional boarding.. I can tell by her mood after I picked her up that she had a great time staying at their house! I will definitely be booking with them for the future !”
“Chungking and her family go above and beyond what you would expect for your fur baby’s care. I have a high maintenance dog and he stresses when he’s left at a sitters house and chews his paws. They made sure his paws were cleaned, dried and wrapped to keep him from chewing on them. And since he had to wear a cone, they were very diligent about making sure he stayed hydrated and fed. Hands-down the best pet sitters I’ve ever used. They also have a spectacular grassy backyard with a high fence. Can’t praise them enough!”
“Lucas was an amazing fit for us! He was so flexible, engaging, and kind! You could tell he has a HUGE heart for loving on all the dogs and treats them as if they are his own. Lucas made sure to listen, meet Alfred, provide updates throughout the stay. Alfred had an amazing time with Lucas and his dogs, especially running around with Lana! When he came home he was worn out from all the fun he had. I am excited to book with Lucas again and know Alfred is in great hands!”
“Actually the best dog sitter i've had. She kept me updated on my dog's and sent pictures so i could see them . Definitely Recommend her if you easily stress about your fur babies.”
“Jessica is great and you can tell she and her family really love dogs. My puppy doesn’t sleep well at other houses but she made it work for him at her house. So glad I could leave on vacation but still feel good about my puppy knowing he was having a good time and well taken care of.”
“Emily was wonderful with Zola! I was stranded in Knoxville after my husband was hospitalized and Emily was able to take my dog on a last minute reservation and was flexible when I needed to adjust my pick-up time. I would defiantly use her again if I am in the area.”
“Kiki was wonderful with our lucky. Kiki kept us updated every day with pics and post. We were very pleased with the way kiki loved and cared for our lucky. Thank you kiki for making it possible to go away and not worry about lucky. We will definitely use kiki again.”
About: What sets us apart is that your dog receives more than just a place to stay. They receive experienced, loving care in our family home from a professional dog trainer! As the owners of RiverSong Doodles, we have extensive experience raising, socializing, and training puppies, as well as caring for dogs with different personalities, temperaments, and needs. **One of our biggest advantages is our understanding of dog behavior and training.** While regular boarding does not include teaching new commands, we work to maintain the training and good habits your dog already has. We intentionally accept only a small number of dogs at a time, allowing us to provide personalized attention, supervised playtime, exercise, affection, and structured rest in a comfortable home environment. We understand that every dog is unique, and we tailor our care to their individual needs, routines, and personalities. **Our goal is for your dog to return home happy, well cared for, and with the same great manners they arrived with!** Professional training experience, personalized attention, and loving family care are what make us different! Caring for dogs is already a big part of our everyday life! As the owners of RiverSong Doodles, we work from home and have built our daily routine around raising, caring for, and training dogs. Our days begin with outdoor playtime, exercise, and potty breaks, followed by breakfast and time to relax. Throughout the day, dogs enjoy supervised play, individual attention, regular potty breaks, and opportunities to practice good manners. Because we're home throughout the day, we're able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and a structured routine rather than leaving dogs alone for long periods. We intentionally accept only a small number of boarding guests at a time so each dog receives plenty of personalized attention. Whether your pup loves playing outside, relaxing with the family, or simply being near us, we make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and included in our daily life. **Dogs aren't something we fit into our schedule. They're already a part of everything we do!** At RiverSong Doodles, we provide a safe, loving, and structured home environment where every dog is treated like part of our family! We intentionally limit the number of dogs in our care so each guest receives plenty of individual attention, affection, and supervision. Our days include supervised outdoor playtime, regular potty breaks, exercise, enrichment activities, and plenty of time to relax. As experienced dog trainers, we understand the importance of consistency. We reinforce good manners throughout the day. We also respect each dog's individual personality, comfort level, and established routines. For everyone's safety and comfort, dogs are supervised during interactions and crated at night and during designated rest periods. We believe a healthy balance of activity, mental stimulation, and quiet time helps dogs feel secure and happy. We carefully follow your dog's feeding instructions, medication schedules when applicable, and any special care requirements. We also provide updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. **Our goal is simple: Your dog should feel safe, loved, and comfortable while enjoying the benefits of an experienced trainer's care!**
“Michael, Lisa and their whole family were wonderful. Our little girl had never stayed away from home before and she seemed to really enjoy being with them. We will definitely want our little girl to stay with them again.”
“Daniella was WONDERFUL! She took great care of our girls and kept in constant communication during their stay. I received many pictures of my pups and their new friends. Would definitely recommend and we would definitely use her again!”
“Karson was great, she’s communicative and clearly loves animals. She took great care of our dog and cat while we were out of town for almost two weeks, she sent us updates often and checked in with any clarifications she had about their care. We’ll definitely be back!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 6 and have owned or fostered 4+ cats, 3+ dogs, a squirrel, a bird, and multiple fish. My experience includes petsitting, dog walking, and other care-related jobs, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of species and personalities. I’m extremely energetic and focus on actual interaction: long walks, active play, and making sure pets feel stimulated and happy rather than just supervised. This hands-on background helps me adapt quickly and give every animal genuine attention and care. My current class schedule (subject to change each semester) is: - Monday/Friday: 3–4 pm - Tuesday/Thursday: 11 am–4 pm - Wednesday: 10 am–4 pm Outside of those blocks I’m flexible and can fit pet care into mornings, evenings, weekends, and open weekday windows. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already prioritize being active outdoors and spending time with animals. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with easy access to the river walk, greenway, campus, and downtown, which are perfect for walks and outdoor time. Whether in my home or a client’s, I focus on a secure, calm environment, consistent routines, and active engagement so pets feel safe and happy. My long history of caring for animals (plus jobs that required responsibility and trust) means I treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them. I’ve had a Labrador Retriever, a Golden Retriever, and a cat, so I have personal experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services in my hometown, making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I enjoy going on walks, playing, giving pets attention, and keeping them company. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I’ll treat your furry family members like my own! I’m a full-time pet sitter available on weekends any time of the day all day and weekdays after 3 PM. I love spending time with animals and making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine as much as possible and will always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! As a lifelong animal lover and full-time pet sitter, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect your home, and make sure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I want you to feel confident knowing your pets are in loving and dependable hands.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Seymour
Tracy was fantastic! We did a last minute trip with our 15 year old dog and needed a sitter. I could not be happier with Tracy being the person who took care of our Zoey. She provided a loving and safe home away from home. She responded quickly to our request and sent great communications and pictures throughout her stay. Please choose Tracy for your pet sitting needs!
Tracy was amazing. We booked with her (last minute mind you) to watch our two GSPs while we went to a UTenn football game. She made the logistics really easy and was very responsive during our entire interaction(s). She sent us pictures of them while we were at the game which was fun to see. We would book with her again anytime we’re in town.

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
94% of sitters in Seymour 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 Seymour 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 Seymour.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Seymour. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Seymour 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
