“We had the pleasure of meeting Zainab late September and we couldn’t be more happy with how our senior dog did with her. She sent updates while we were away regularly and he just fit right in with her family. Thankful to have found such a great provider on Rover. So close to home and so attentive and caring to our pet. We will be booking as often as we need for sure! Loved the experience and so did our pup.”
“Krystene and her family were great! They took such great care of our dog while we were away. I got regular updates and photos. I would absolutely book with Krystene again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Linda was amazing with Milo! He has pretty odd food like peanut butter, bananas and she was great with giving him everything he usually gets. She is so kind and definitely an animal lover. I would let her watch Milo anytime again!”
“Kelly was fabulous with my two doodles. I had never left them with somebody before and because my oldest dog has sight issues I was very nervous, but Kelly put me at ease immediately. Every day she would send me photos or videos with a little snippet about how things were going. I looked forward to seeing the photos and I could tell that they were having fun running around her yard. It is obvious that Kelly loves dogs and I will definitely use her again.”
“Cara and Rosey were fantastic! Koozie was well cared for and Cara sent pictures daily and shared cute stories. We’re so excited to find our “unicorn” to take care of our girl while we travel. We’ll be using her every time we go out of town!”
“Margaret and Tommy were very attentive and loving towards our puppy, Scarlett. Communication was excellent and we will continue to have them watch Scarlett when we are out of town. I highly recommend them.”
“5 stars! Anu was amazing with Jake. He had such a great time, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. She was very caring, attentive, and kept us informed throughout his stay. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We would absolutely trust her with Jake again and highly recommend her! 🐶❤️”
“She was an amazing dog sitter. She kept Sheba for 3 days and kept us informed the entire time. She let us know right away if anything was off and truly cared about Sheba’s wellbeing. She was also very kind and professional when we met. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her.”

About: I had 2 miniature dachshunds growing up. I have watched my friends 2 German Shepherds for 7years now. My boyfriend owned a German Shepherd and used to foster dogs. We now own an Australian Shepherd. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets attention throughout the day. I’m available for regular walks, playtime, feedings, potty breaks, and cuddles, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with an on-site dog park and nearby trails leading to Sugg Farm and Bass Lake, perfect for walks and outdoor adventures. I have a friendly, loving, and playful Australian Shepherd, so I understand the importance of exercise, attention, and enrichment. I’ll prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, follow their usual routines, and make sure they receive plenty of love and care while you’re away!

“Highly recommend!!! Got multiple picture and video updates per day and she asked the important questions to make sure my buddy Hercules would have a great weekend. Communication was top notch and she really knows her animals. Do not hesitate to book!!”
“Javarris and his family were fantastic took very good care of my older dog Rocky and kept me updated and at ease throughout my whole trip would definitely recommend and they would be the first sitters I call”
“Alexandria took amazing care of my 2 dogs! I got pics throughout each day, showing plenty of walks, playtime, and snacks. They are very content, like they just got home from a vacation for themselves. Will definitely book again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Apex
My last rover moved away and we were planning a trip to London. I was a little nervous for my senior dog to experience new surroundings while going out of the country. We saw Brittany on rover and reached out, and am so glad we did. Everything went well - from the meet & greet, the daycare visit we made to help get our pup more comfortable before the trip, to the entire week of the trip itself. Brittany took such good care of our pup that it helped us enjoy our vacation that much more, knowing he was in great hands.
Alison, Tim and their children provided great care of Teddy. Alison sent so many pictures I felt like I was there! Teddy had story time and played dress up with their daughter, went for a ride and fishing with their son. He went on plenty of walks - honestly he was on vacation too. My family even joked that he wouldn't want to come home. We don't have any other trips planned but when we do we will look to see if Alison and Tim can watch Teddy again.
Nazneen and her husband were great with my cat for the week she stayed with them. She’s a little nervous when she’s not at home, but after a day or so with them she was acting like she’d lived with them all her life. The individual attention they were able to give is exactly what my kitty needed to make her feel comfortable while she was away from home. Their cat got along with mine perfectly well too. I couldn’t have left with my cat in better hands.

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 .
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 .
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.
