“We’ve never used Rover before and were a little nervous. Thomas set up a meet and greet prior to our booking. He made both my family and my dogs extremely comfortable and put us all at ease. While we were away he sent us updates, photos and videos. He gave spent time and attention on them as if they were his own. Highly recommend Thomas and will definitely book with him for future travel.”
“I booked a last minute boarding for Bella. Jared was very prompt in answering my request which I appreciated since we wanted to leave the next day. When I dropped Bella off her tail started wagging when she met him. Loved the fact that he had a fenced in backyard. Jared was great keeping me updated on how she was doing with pictures.I will definitely use him again. I highly recommend him for your pet needs.”
“If I could give a 10 outta 5 I would. I literally just rescued Daisy, my 1lb chihuahua, and already had planned a trip home to Ohio. I'm in NC for work, and my closest friend is 3 hours away. I was petrified to leave this new scared baby with a stranger.. We met Amanda and INSTANTLY LOVED HER! I got pics and videos of my sweet tiny tot, and Amanda's dogs were PERFECT FUN AND GENTLE. I will not look for anyone else while I'm here to watch Daisy unless it's am emergency or Amanda is busy..”
About: i’ve taken care of every kind of dog since i was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have counted on me to walk, feed, and bathe their beloved pets. I’m currently in school for dog training Pet care is part of my everyday life as a dog mom of 3. I’m used to caring for all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily fit walks, drop-ins, and extra attention into my day. I treat every dog like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Your pet will always be in reliable, experienced hands with me! In my home, pets get plenty of supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, and a clean, comfortable space to relax. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions. If I’m in a client’s home, I make sure to keep their pet’s environment calm, familiar, and stress-free. I always give lots of attention, positive reinforcement, and gentle structure. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, cared for, and at home, wherever they are.
“Andrea is the BEST! She took such good care of Sophie, cooking her chicken and rice during her few days of illness. Because of Andrea's excellent care I didn't have to cut my vacation short. When I picked her up she was happy, healthy, clean and smelled so good! Andrea even gave her a bath when she soiled on herself.”
“Nicholas, Thank you so much for caring for Buddy. I’m so glad you felt he was compatible with you. We really appreciated the pics and seeing he was doing well. It was very reassuring. We would love to have you care for him again sometime. We are really impressed with Rover and how easy it is to use and communicate. Thanks again Nicholas and Rover.”
“Sanya took such fantastic care of our Onyxx and made so easy for our 1st time boarding him. She never judged him bc of his breed and size, she gave him the nickname, "miniature bear". She quickly & consistently responded to my helicopter mom text messages plus sent unexpected updates along with tons of photos and videos. Onyxx took to her and her furbabies immediately and she truly did love on him. You will definitely see us again!”
“Robin is experienced and trustworthy. We loved the big fenced in back yard and ample inside room for our pups while we were out of town. I was emotional leaving my babies but knew they were in great hands. Photos and videos while we were gone and texting communication was spot on. We will definitely be booking again when needed.”
“Shelly is/was a life saver! My plans changed several times and in the chaos of it all I forgot to confirm the booking.... but Shelly was accommodating and helped put my mind at ease. My dogs are pretty easy going, however I do have one that has seizures sometimes. I felt completely confident in Shelly's ability to handle one if it happened. Keeping Kennedy (my dog) calm helps keep her from having seizures. Shelly's home is warm, calm and comfortable. It was a perfect stay! I will definitely be using her again.”
“Loren is top notch! Our dogs loved being able to run around her property and play with her dogs. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout their stay and was always very quick to respond. Loren is super easy to work with and was very flexible when I had some last minute changes in pick up time. And she gave the boys baths and nail trims- I mean what more could you ask for. 10/10!”
“First time using Rover. It was a great experience, it’s never easy leaving a pet in the hands of someone else. Grace seemed to do well with Rebecca and her family. I would recommend her!”
“Darcy is the BEST!!! She took fantastic care of my boys. Gave me daily updates and sent me the cutest pictures! I am so grateful she loved them like her own for the week 🥰 She even sent their bowls back sparkling clean ✨ 10/10 recommend!! I will definitely be using her services again.”
“What a sweet sitter who was gentle with our pup, upbeat, smart, caring, and a good communicator throughout our requests, time changes, and adjustments. Felt very safe about leaving her with Brody in a New York apartment as we went out to a Broadway show. Brody thought she was great! Would definitely recommend.”
About: Hey👋🏾, your pup's new bestie here! A little bit about me. I was born and raised on a farm here in NC, so I've always been outdoorsy. My first dog was a hundred pound German Shepard named Dee Dee. I was 5 years old then and we grew up together. Dogs have been apart of my life ever since. Growing up I was fortunate to have horses, chickens, cows and cats. I still love them all but now my focused is on dogs primarily. I have french bulldogs and a lovely husky mix I rescued named "Dex". I communicate well with animals and I'm good with them. I worked as a Vet tech for several years after high school. I then went on to become a Practice Manager for a Vet Office in Charlotte. I am now working to create my home into the perfect pup resort/paradise. I would love to have new and regular clientele so there is comfort between your dog and I. I don't mind taking your dog to groomers or doctor appointments if needed and I can do pick up and drop off from my home within 15 miles too. I do ask that I am informed of any health issues or behavioral issues up front. Please know that I will treat you and your babies with love and respect. Thats my garauntee! I am a full time dog breeder and currently have no expected litters so I have open availability. I can also board overnight (up to date vaccinations required). I can do drop-ins and walks also. I don't mind taking your 🐶 to their favorite parks. I have a clean acre yard with a fenced playpark on it. I have a heated & A/C Dog Hotel and dogs have their own suite. I own 5 friendly frenchies, for your dog to have friends to play with if you choose. Meal times and medications is at your choosing. Depending on weather determines what activites we do that day. Whatever we do we will have fun.
About: I have over four years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, including managing illnesses, administering medications, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. Through this experience, I’ve learned to pay close attention to canine behavior and body language, allowing me to pick up on subtle cues about a dog’s comfort, needs, and emotions. I understand how to respond calmly in emergency situations and how to help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether it’s encouraging a dog to eat, maintaining their routine, or simply providing companionship, I approach every dog with patience, attentiveness, and genuine compassion. I truly see dogs as family members and believe they deserve the same respect, kindness, and care that we give to people. My goal is to make every dog feel loved, secure, and understood while they’re in my care. As a therapist who works from home, I am able to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. My schedule includes regular breaks, allowing me to attend to your dog’s needs, offer potty breaks, playtime, walks, affection, and companionship without long periods of separation. My home has a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as multiple rooms that can be used to give dogs their own space when needed. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family, creating a comfortable, home-like environment rather than a kennel atmosphere. Most importantly, I will be home the entire time your dog is in my care, ensuring they receive attentive supervision, comfort, and companionship throughout their stay.
“Sarah and family were wonderful. The dogs seemed like they had fun and were tired out afterwards. I loved seeing the photo updates while we were gone. And it was nice that she was flexible with our drop off and pick up times. I would definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs. I have experience caring for puppies and elderly dogs. I have an Aussie doodle puppy. I’m available for drop ins, walks, or sittings. I have a flexible schedule and will be available the majority of the day to care of your pets. If I have to leave during boardings, it will be only for short periods of times which will be communicated to you. I live in an apartment with plenty of space and a dog park. There is a nice neighborhood and park nearby for walks. For sittings at your home, I will respect your space and keep it clean. I have a puppy at home, so I am unable to stay at your home overnight. I will update you with as many photos or videos you’d like!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Advance
Cinthia and Fernando took wonderful care of our pups while we were away for an extended amount of time. We received twice-daily updates with pictures and videos, which greatly eased any nervousness we had about being away for so long. They clearly cared for Miles and Mabel as we would have, and they welcomed the dogs as part of their family. We know they were in good hands and will absolutely reach out to Cinthia and Fernando the next time Miles and Mabel are ready for a vacation!
Morgan and her sweet family were amazing with our dogs. She kept us informed on how they were doing, along with pictures, and both dogs came back happy! The dogs loved being around the variety of animals on their farm. We will definitely have Morgan sit for our dogs in the future, and highly recommend her.

There are 466 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Advance. About 91% of Advance sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.

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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 NC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
