“As always Lisa is amazing with my little old lady and will always be a repeat customer. Cannot recommend her enough if you have a senior pup that you just want a calm, quiet "home" feel boarding situation.”
“Austin was a great dog sitter for Moose! He kept me updated with messages and pictures - and I’m sure Moose really enjoyed having a playmate, Lucy, as well. Would 100% use Austin again and recommend you do too!”

“Laura did a great job with our (very energetic) pup! She sent us daily photos and videos to show us that she was having a great time! Laura took her to dog parks and my pup got along fine with hers! Truly an excellent sitter!”
“Ashley was fantastic! Our miniature dachshund, Rumford, had such a fun time! He enjoyed running around in her yard and Ashley sent plenty of pictures everyday which was so nice and reassuring! I’m so glad to have found a dog sitter that I can trust our puppy with!”
“Michelle and Bryce were so sweet with Archie, sending photos and updates and treating him like one of their own. They went above and beyond with enrichments like a special puzzle toy for him to use to get treats. He was so happy there. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for caring sitters and look forward to Archie staying with them again in the future!”
“Nathan went above and beyond for our little Mickey boy. We didn't have to worry about Mickey at all while on vacation, which was so nice. We received pictures and videos of Mickey daily which we appreciated so much! We are definitely going to use Nathan again to watch our little Mickey for sure!!! 10/10 recommend!”
About: We are a pet loving family who recently lost our family dog. We are hoping to help fill the void of losing our dog by loving on yours! We live in East Nashville and have a large, fenced in back yard ready for play time and potty breaks. We do have 2 younger children so we'd just need to confirm your pet is good with kids! I work from home 2-3 days per week and can arrange my schedule to be home with your pet, if needed. We can chat about how many hours and times per your dog needs to have potty breaks. We can offer walks, lots of playtime and cuddles! We have a large, fenced in back yard for the pets to run around as much as they'd like. We allow pets on furniture, if you want, or we can crate them when not home and keep to your schedule and preferences as much as you'd like!
“Mochi had a lovely time with Margaret and met many nice new friends. Margaret was easy to work with, very communicative and sent lots of cute pictures. We will definitely come back!”
“Joelle was fantastic! She took great care of my dog, communicated well, and made me feel completely comfortable while I was away. I’d definitely recommend her and will gladly book with her again!”
“Trey was awesome! Snoop came home happy and tired. He was on an adventure seeing he has never been away from us. He seems to have had a great time. Definitely will book again.”
“Leah provided so many updates and details that it was as if I hadn’t even left my sweet Daisy behind. Leah & Wes and “the girls” welcomed Daisy with open arms and paws! I’m so glad we found this wonderful family to look after Daisy when we are away. Daisy came home happy and I know when we use Leah & Wes again she will be well taken care of!!”
“Madelilne was the best sitter for Sebastian! Not only was I able to book her on short notice, but she took his anxiety from his traumatic rescue situation in stride and was able to provide him a safe and happy home while I was away. All the stars, would 100% recommend!”
About: I have an 8 year old golden retriever at home that I’ve raised since he was a puppy. He gets along with everybody! I have taken care of family dogs and friends’ dogs throughout my life. I offer daily walks around a very walkable neighborhood and lots of couch cuddles for your dog! Happy to administer medicine. I welcome dogs of all ages and energy levels! I have a flexible work schedule and work from home two days a week so would fit my schedule to your dog’s visit. I have a flexible work schedule and work from home every Friday, which allows me plenty of time to spend with my dog and yours! I am available for boarding on weekends. I love taking my pup on walks at Shelby or playing with him outside in our fenced in back yard. He loves everyone he meets! We live in a very walkable neighborhood that’s great for daily walks.
“Emily watched our 1.5 year old mini goldendoodle for 4 days and he absolutely adored her. She was great with communication sending text and picture updates throughout the stay. We had an initial meet and greet with Emily ahead of time and we knew instantly that she is an animal lover! She asked all the right questions to make sure our dog was fed /walked/ exercised on time. Emily’s apartment was also great for our active pup since she has a little private outdoor balcony. Would recommend Emily to any of our friends and will definitely be booking in the future again! Thanks Emily!!”
“Ariana was awesome! Sent pictures of Yona with her Aussies daily! I could tell Yona had such a great time! I would definitely recommend Ariana to anyone looking for someone to watch their pup! Thanks so much Ariana!”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in West is $60 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $74 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.

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 West 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 West 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 West.
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 West. 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 West 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.
