“Elizabeth was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of our Bella and provided daily photos and/or videos of her having the time of her life at “Camp Elizabeth”. We couldn’t be more pleased and will definitely be using her in the future!”


“My dogs stayed for a while with Ann and they had a very good time. Ann sent us daily updates on our dogs and they always looked happy. I will definitely take them back in case I need.”

“Sully had another great stay with Jessica, her kids, and his new best buddy Tucker! We have definitely found our ‘go to’ care provider for our Little Man when we need to be away. Thank you Jessica and Fam”

“Here's your final review with a few minor tweaks for clarity and flow: --- This is my first time using a boarding service through Rover, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! I recently boarded my dog with her, and she was incredibly friendly, ensuring my dog felt comfortable and loved throughout the stay. Her house had plenty of space for play, and I really appreciated the regular updates and photos. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy boarding service. Thank you for taking such great care of Harry!”

“Ashley was great with Milo! She was responsive throughout our trip and sent us plenty of pictures and updates. Milo seemed to be in great spirits when we picked him up and has been happy and himself since we got home. We really appreciated her taking such good care of him and would definitely recommend Ashley!”

“I was traveling in the area and needed a place to leave my dog for a week. Cassy was great. She responds quickly to email making communication easy. She sent plenty of pictures showing me the space. The kids were an extra plus because they seem to love dogs and promised to give River lots of attention. The only down side is the back yard is very small so I'm not sure how much running River could get in each day. I would use Cassy again if I return to the area.”

“April was amazing! We liked her the first time we met her! Bandit was treated so well! Bandit is an older dog and had some issues while he stayed with her! She handled them like a champ! She also gave him his medications! We would highly recommend April to anyone that needs pet care! 🐾”

“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!!”

“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!”

“Riley enjoyed her stay with Joe! (As I expected she would.) He was very attentive to her needs and needs. They liked to take walks and watch the same flicks on tv, while chilling on the couch with his hand scratching her head just how she likes it. I picked him because he is retired and could give her the 1:1 attention that she craves. He kept me updated and I felt very comfortable with leaving my little miss in his capable hands. She will be back for more stays in the future. Joe, Riley thanks you too!”

“I was so pleased with the care my cat received from Krystal. Krystal communicated with me regularly and sent photos and videos, I knew my cat was being cared for by a caregiver who truly loves animals!”

About: Lifelong dog owner and experienced pet sitter. I’ve cared for my own dogs and watched friends’ and family’s pets for so many years. I work part-time and home typically by noon. If your pup is an overnight I do have safe places for your baby to stay while I’m gone. If your baby is super friendly and understands dog doors I have that available. #1 is safety and feeling comfortable and loved. My backyard has a wooden privacy fence. I’m present and interact with them. The backyard is big with lots of running space.

“This was our second time using Jordyn as a sitter. She has been super easy to work with and I can tell that my dog is in great hands! Ginger was so excited when we pulled in the driveway and could not get in the door fast enough which says a lot!!! Thank you!!!”


“I highly recommend Lanelle to watch your puppy/dog! From the time I dropped my baby off, she was already updating me and letting me know how she was doing. She sent me pics the entire time Aurora was there. Also, they had plenty of other dogs there for her to play with. Plus, there was always someone there with her so she was never alone which is huge for me. I would love to bring her back the next time I go out of town. Very pleased with her level of service!”
“Kirk and Nicole were amazing! I am starting to travel for work and needed to find a solution that I am comfort with and Gizmo is happy. They have a nice yard and Gizmo bonded with Kirk immediately I got pictures a few times a day and if I texted to check on him, the response was immediate. Thank you so much!!”

“Devin was flexible and gracious. Our kitties had their own room and were safe and cared for. I would would recommend them and personally hire them again if the need arises. Thank you!!”

“Thank you so much for taking such great care of Frankie! He came home absolutely tuckered out and exhausted, so I know he had a fantastic time playing and getting plenty of exercise. I really appreciate your great communication and care especiallysince this was a bit of a last minute booking. If the need arises, we will definitely be looking to book again!”

“Meredith and her partner are absolutely AMAZING. We are so glad we found them. We haven't left our dogs in over 2 years and decided to finally take a trip without the dogs, and I didn't worry at all. After our meet and greet, my husband and I said...."they speak dog" and they really do! They understand dog communication and their needs and are very attentive. They went above and beyond for our dogs, sent updates with photos, are very kind and reliable. We will absolutely hire them again over and over.”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Townsend is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $84 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 352 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Townsend. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in Townsend 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 Townsend 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 Townsend.
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 Townsend 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.
