“Leslie was great! She has a beautiful yard for the dogs to play and she is very quick to respond back to you when you want to know how your pet is doing. Every time she sent me a picture of him he looked at ease and happy. We definitely will feel very good about leaving him with her again. Thanks Leslie!”
“I had no worries with Shanna, every interaction showed her care for my pet was her first concern. Great communication and pictures while I was away, I truly could not have asked for more.”
“I can’t thank Kathy enough for everything, and taking care of my fur babies like they were her own! You don’t need to worry about leaving your dogs with her, they will be more than okay :)”
About: I have always watched all my families fur babies. They have been well loved just as my own. I’m always watching training videos on dog behavior as to be ready at all times and recognizing when to step in. I’m a stay at home mom so I’m always home majority of my days unless I’m running errands. So they are in my care at all times. I love to send videos and pictures to keep everyone updated. So I’m hoping to love on your fur-babies soon. I’m a stay at home mom. So I’m home almost all of my days unless I’m out running an errand or out with my sister doing an activity with my kids. But most of my days consist of being at home. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I have a really big back yard and open front yard and woods. We are back in the corner of the woods. I also have 2 big dogs that will help guide your dog on how to do things. I also have a crate if need be for a large breed dog if that’s something they are use too. I’m more than welcome to walk your dogs on a leash if you felt more comfortable
“Itzel did a wonderful job with my high-energy puppy & older dog. She made sure they were comfortable and safe during their stay, and sent daily updates wittr pictures. I would definitely recommend her without hesitation:)”
“Norma provided lots of love for our two boys! She is a pro with the drop-off and pickup process and provided a ton of pictures and updates throughout the week! We will definitely use her services in the future and we would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a loving host for their precious pups!”
“Great experience! She was very flexible and took great care of William. He did very well on his extended visit and she was easy to communicate and work with would totally book this sitter again!”
“Absolutely — here’s a more natural, heartfelt version: --- Kayla was amazing with our pup! She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which really helped us relax while we were away. He came back happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. We could tell he was in good hands the whole time. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Kayla again next time we need a sitter”
“Jeannette was an excellent sitter for Ruby. She provided the structure that she has at home. I appreciate that she has a large fenced yard for exploration and activity. She provided timely updates during her the visit and an overview during pickup. Ruby enjoyed her stay and I felt safe leaving her with Jeannette. I will definitely book her again.”
“Finding Brittany on Rover was truly a blessing. From the very first interaction, her energy felt calm, genuine, and loving and that carried through the entire experience. My dog Cali is 1 1/2 years old and a fairly large dog, and Brittany handled her with confidence, patience, and so much care. Cali absolutely adores her. Brittany treated Cali as if she were her own, creating a safe, nurturing, and very dog friendly environment. She kept me at ease by sending frequent pictures and videos, which showed just how happy, relaxed, and well cared for Cali was. Seeing that level of attentiveness brought so much peace to my spirit. What truly stood out was Brittany’s intentional care!! she didn’t just watch Cali, she connected with her. Taking her on runs, engaging her energy, and honoring her needs showed a deep understanding and respect for dogs. My overall experience was nothing short of beautiful. I am deeply grateful for Brittany and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who cares for dogs with love, presence, and heart. Cali will absolutely be returning. 🐾✨”
“Arleen and John took such great care of our Finley girl. You can tell she was well loved for the duration of her stay. We were certainly appreciative of the pictures and videos we received daily. They are such a sweet family, and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”
“Rachel is hands down so wonderful. Our pup is a roller, and loves to play and he was bathed several times while we were away due to his playful rolling and she was so sweet, and so so so attentive to our Andy!”
“Carrie is wonderful with my old, eccentric girl. She sends lots of updates and pics/videos, so I know my little girl is thriving. This was Minnie’s second stay with Carrie, and she settled in quickly. It’s such a relief to find such a perfect second home for our little Min!”
“Kim was absolutely wonderful. She showed so much care and interest in my two Pomeranians. She was highly interested in making sure she knew and took care of all my doggie needs. I would highly recommend her, especially if you have older dogs requiring special attention.”
“Kelly is wonderful! I left my 2 dogs with her for a week, and she took great care of them. I received frequent pictures and updates, and they came home exhausted from all the play time. We will most definitely be using her again.”
“Last minute booking as we had to urgently go to Atlanta. Leslye was responsive almost immediately. My dog instantly felt at home as he rushed in to make himself comfortable. Will definitely use her again in the future.”

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
93% of Albemarle sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Albemarle landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Albemarle 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 Albemarle.
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 Albemarle 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 NC 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.
