About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a child, and have always begged my parents for a cat! I have experience pet sitting both dogs and cats, and have been in the business for more than 5 years! I can administer medicine, and any special care your animal might need. I’m happy to accommodate! I am a college student who has class MWF until 1:30! After that, I have the rest of the day to spend with your pet! I live in an apartment with grass all along the property. There is plenty of space for walks, and any exercise your pet might need!

About: We have both grown up with dogs since birth! Our families have always owned them. <3 We have experience walking, bathing, feeding, & giving oral medications to dogs of all breeds, ages, & sizes. We have owned dogs with our families before marriage & have each dog sat for friends & family.🐶Avery has experience taking care of her family’s senior shitzu including taking him on walks in a doggie stroller, walks in grippy socks, & exercising him in a bathtub because it’s good for his joints. (: 🛁🐾 Layton is blessed to work from home so he is able to watch, hangout, & play with your fur baby all day! No need to worry about your pup having anxiety away from a human or being lonely. Avery gets home from grad school in the evenings. We are both home at night and on the weekends as well, we have very flexible schedules. We live in a dog friendly, gated apartment complex with a dog park, sidewalks, and lots of space so we can get our exercise in💪🐶🏃‍♀️. We do not own any pets so you do not have to worry about your dog getting along with another animal or vice versa. (: We do not own any crates and feel no need to, we love letting our previous pets and dogs we’ve sat for roam freely with us and get as many pets & scratches as they please. We allow dogs on our furniture, just let us know if they are prone to accidents/not fully potty trained. We can’t wait to make your fur baby feel right at home when you’re away!

“Melissa exceeded my expectations! Yumi doesn’t usually feel comfortable around people she doesn’t know, but she absolutely loved Melissa from day one. Melissa kept me updated throughout her stay, including her meals, walks, treats, and how she slept at night. Everything went so smoothly, and I felt completely at ease knowing Yumi was in such good hands. I’ve had other experiences on Rover, but Melissa is definitely the best sitter we’ve had. I’m sure Yumi is already looking forward to staying with her again soon! 🐾❤️”

We have one who is a little more anxious then the other, and he felt comfortable. She provided photos and videos and communicated well. She made us feel as ease. We appreciate Keli and her family. We will definitely be using Keli again when that time comes.”

“I can’t adequately put into words how wonderful Cassy and her family have been to our sweet Darcy! We had a bit of an emergency and they took Darcy right in and loved on her just as we’d hoped for. Even though we didn’t want to leave our pup at all, we had such peace with her being in Cassy’s care. We definitely recommend her for anyone in the area looking for someone to love their dog and she will definitely be our go to in the future. She not only loved our dog and gave her excellent care but she also provides updates and stays in touch which is also very helpful when you didn’t want to be away from your dog at all! Words cannot express our gratefulness to Cassy and her family!❣️”

Cody and Rachel were great! Very communicative and worked with us on timing. My older pup got sick and they took great care of him and made him some plain chicken and rice. Will definitely be boarding with them again next time we need a hand with the dogs!

April and her Husband were absolutely fantastic. I felt comfortable right away leaving my dog with them and through the course of our week long vacation was never worried about her. You can tell they both really care for their dogs and will treat yours as one of their own. They’ll be on speed dial and our first choice next time we need a sitter.

My schedule was all over the board this trip and Kathryne was extremely accommodating. She was also very good about sending pictures and videos. Star seemed to have a wonderful time playing with Mochi, Kathryne's dog and was completely worn out for the trip back home. 😃

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 Sixmile 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 Sixmile.

<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 Sixmile 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.
