“Alyssa and family took such great care of our pup while we were away. We received multiple updates daily letting us see how much fun he was having. Resident dog Bella was also an amazing friend for our Pablo. We would highly recommend them to anyone.”
“Deborah was so great with our timid Luna! She’s the best sitter we’ve ever used (even including our friends and family, lol! 🫣). Deborah was always quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She sent multiple pictures of Luna each day, keeping us up to date with their activities and helping us feel like we weren’t so far away. Even though our booking was super last minute for the weekend, Deborah’s place was perfectly prepared for Luna’s stay. Her home is easy to find and located in a quiet residential neighborhood without through traffic. When we arrived for drop off, Deborah had made an adorable hand-decorated sign which she pinned on her front door welcoming us to “Luna’s Weekend Retreat”. 🌺 She welcomed us inside and I’ve never seen Luna take to a new place so quickly; she immediately made herself at home in the spa-like cloud bed which had been made fresh for her and lined with a curated selection of dog toys for her choosing. She didn’t even get up when we were leaving, which has never happened before at a drop off! We were put so at ease leaving Luna in Deborah’s care for the weekend, and we’re thrilled to receive pictures of their adventures exploring the neighborhood trail, getting brushes and pedicures, and just generally being loved and cared for as if Luna was Deborah’s own pupper to love and dote on. ❤️ Luna’s well behaved and easy to care for, but is also quietly anxious and afraid of loud noises. She is a rescued staffy and has “resting ASPCA face” much of the time, even with us, so I never blame a sitter for her expressions, but we can always tell from seeing her eyes, brows, and ears in photos how relaxed and comfortable she is, and Deborah was somehow able to put Luna at ease, even on 4th of July weekend with scary fireworks popping! We’re so grateful to have found Deborah as our new go to sitter. Now we’re going to have to make up and plan new trips just to give Luna a reason to get to go adventure and sleep over with her new friend! 🥰 Thanks endlessly, Deborah!”
“Ashley was amazing. She was friendly, responsive and on time. She kept me up to date on Stetson the entire time and sent plentycof photos. He loved playing with Hazel too. I really needed a smaller structured daycare and boarding option. Ashley definitely came through for me.”
“This is the second time that Jenae has taken care of my boys for an extended stay. She takes very well care of my babies and I was not at all worried about leaving them for a week. Jenae is my go to pet sitter.”
“This was our first time ever boarding our dog. Hayley was super friendly and helpful and made us feel very comfortable in leaving our dog. He was definitely worn out when we picked him up. We wanted to get him socialized with other dogs and children and Hayley made that possible. We have already booked her for our next vacation. Bandit was a happy and tired boy.”
“Chris is absolutely amazing and spoils our dog her whole visit. Nana has stayed with Chris 4 or 5 times now and gets excited when we pull in the driveway. Chris is definitely our go to anytime we travel and need a place to leave our furbaby”
“Angela is awesome. I love her set up for the dogs, great shaded backyard. She gave me updates with photos and videos keeping me connected to my pup. I will definitely return to her with my pup in the future.”
“This was my first Rover experience, and I definitely picked an excellent person to keep my dog! Desira kept me informed of Maggie’s visit all weekend. I especially enjoyed the photos that I received, and that eased my nervousness of leaving my pet with a sitter. I will check with her first when I’m planning another trip, and I highly recommend Desira!”
“Erin and her husband are wonderful and very experienced! I love the picture updates they send and knowing that my pup is in good hands allows me to relax on vacation. You will not regret booking with Erin!”
“I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care that my two dogs received from Callee. Leaving them in her care was an absolute pleasure. One of my dogs has epilepsy, requiring regular medication, and she handled it with absolute professionalism and care. The regular updates she sent eased my mind while I was away. It was evident that she not only took care of their physical needs but also nurtured their happiness and well-being. I highly recommend Callee to anyone seeking a responsible, caring, and trustworthy sitter. My dogs returned home happy, healthy, and undoubtedly looking forward to their next visit!”
“This is our first time leaving our golden retriever for an extended stay and we were nervous about it. However, we soon realized we didn't have to be as Shiloh took great care of Rollo! She has a calm energy and has extensive knowledge about animals. Rollo had hot spot flare ups and she made sure to thoroughly care for him during the healing process. Her house is clean and Rollo was happy at pick up! Thank you so much again for taking care of Rollo!”
“Will definitely be a returning client with Angela! She took such great care of Miss Charli. Sent pictures, made sure she had her snacks and food, gave her her medication when it was needed and kept me updated overall. My girl felt right at home and very loved”
“10/10 recommend Amanda! Incredible communication throughout Chief’s entire stay! I felt comfortable and confident he in was in the best hands at drop off / pickup! Will definitely rebook with this sweet family again!”
“There couldn’t be a better dog sitter/boarder than Glenn! He took such great care of Daisy and she really loved him. She was the only little dog among a Pyrenese, greyhounds, pitbull, and other big dogs but she was in heaven. Guess they made good blankets! Glenn met with us first to ensure she would be fine with them, and I think she would have stayed forever! I got lots of pics and movies over the 4 days. I’d give him 100 ? if I could.”
“So happy Sydnie was able to watch my babies! Her and her family watched my 2 dogs for a week and truly treated them as their own. She kept me updated daily as well and sent plenty of photos. Would be lucky to have her watch our dogs again! Thanks Sydnie 🤍”
“Kellye was amazing,especially being last minute. Ice was well taken care of and she sent updates and responded quickly every time I asked how he was doing. Would highly recommend.”
“Jessica was an amazing sitter! She sent lots of updates and photos and it was obvious our pup had a blast with her and her dogs. We would definitely recommend and would book her again!”
“Isaias and his family took amazing care of Zoe. Gave constant updates with photos and videos. Zoe had an amazing time and would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for some great people to take care of their animal”

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.

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.
96% of sitters in Watertown 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 Watertown 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 Watertown.
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 Watertown. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Watertown 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.
