We felt so comfortable at their home and so did our babies. All the time we were gone we got a picture of our babies enjoying their staycation ? it was absolutely Awesome. We would highly recommend these two great people for their babies! ?? We Loved them so much we booked them again for the middle of July! Thank You Again Shirley & Jeff for being Awesome to our Fur Babies ❤”
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our Goldendoodle Daphne for two nights. She sent pictures and kept us updated while we enjoyed a family vacation at Great Wolf. She was very communicative and friendly. We will definitely use her again when we return to GW! This was our first experience with Rover and our first experience with our dog being left in the care of someone else. Elizabeth helped keep our anxiety way down!”

“Jacqui was wonderful with our doodles! They had the perfect weekend! She texted and sent pictures often and was quick to respond! 10/10 will definitely use her for our future needs!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Rita. This was a last minute trip that we couldn’t take a pup with us. I don’t like leaving my girl behind, but I know she is in good hands when Rita watches her. She also sends me plenty of pictures and videos to let me know how June is doing. I can’t recommend her enough and will keep using her. This was June’s second time staying with Rita.”

“They were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! We couldn’t have found anyone better for our little Mister Hank especially at somewhat last minute. They treated him like their own and sent so many wonderful pictures of him and them spending quality time, ensuring he was a happy pup! We truly love the passion they showed for him and we could tell the love for animals they give! Thank you so much for taking care of our sweet boy!!! Anyone is lucky to find you all! We highly recommend and any trips back to tn we have and need a sitter…. We will definitely ask them first hand!!!”
“Rose is the best!! We booked with her for our two pups (black lab & lab-boxer mix) while on our honeymoon. She picked up/dropped them off at our house. Rose sent an abundance of videos and pictures to update us on how the dogs were during their visit. In all of the pictures and videos the pups were playing and having the best time. I can tell that Rose gives each pup that she sits adequate attention during their stay at her home. On top of how amazing she is with the dogs, Rose is super friendly and makes you feel welcome during meet n greets. We will be using her again and recommend her 5 outta 5 ☺️”
“Renee was absolutely fantastic! She kept me updated on how our two Golden Doodles were doing and even sent us pictures. I am so thankful to have found such a wonderful sitter for them. We will definitely be reaching out to Renee again for future boarding 💕”
About: I am a volunteer firefighter and a full time nanny. I have watched dogs since I was 13 years old and I have had dogs all of my life. I love all kinds of animals. Right now I have 2 dogs a 45 pound husky and a 90 pound American bulldog red boon coon hound mix. I also have three rescue cats and two bunnies one of my bunnies is a rescue bunny. My schedule is very flexible so I can work around the routine you already have set up for your dog. I can also work on house braking your dogs for you.

I only work those hours during that time I keep my eyes on them at all times well they are outside and when going in and out the doors. Safety is to priority
“Kaspar was very relaxed when he met Hailey. She took care for him with his limited walks and gave him his medicine. She was very helpful and attentive. Kaspar was happy and relaxed when he got home. When he is finished with his therapy, he is going to have a great time playing with her two huskies. Kaspar will definitely stay again in the future.”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. 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.
99% of sitters in Walkertown 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 Walkertown 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 Walkertown.
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 Walkertown. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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 Walkertown 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.
