“They took great care of Ellie and she seemed to enjoy her time there - Ellie is nervous around other dogs but she seems to have adjusted very well - thank you so much for taking care of her - and I am sure she was a hit with the neighbors as she loves peopke”

“Sidney was great and Ivy trusted her immediately! We got picture updates along the way and you could tell she was having a good time! I will happily use Sidney’s services again in the future! Thank you for taking great care of our fur-baby!”

“Stella took great care of my girls (a Boston terrier and a “Velcro” Dalmatian) for a week. It was a last minute booking and she communicated so promptly and professionally. She even offered a meet and greet which made me feel even more comfortable leaving our fur babies with her. Stella had a great yard for them to play in, and updated us with pictures and videos nearly everyday! I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a sitter that they can trust and feel like their babies were made feel right at home! Thank you Stella!”


“Taylor took great care of our 17 year old senior pup. She has an array of age-related needs, and he made sure she was comfortable, eating regularly, and getting outside...and all of those things are challenging for her at this point. I would highly recommend him!”

“Samantha and her family were the best! They took such great care of Finn, he came home a very tired, happy boy. She was very quick to respond and provided daily updates with pictures while I was away. I will absolutely use this family again as a sitter. They are so trusting and I will be recommending them to all of my friends :)”

“Our dogs were well cared for and we felt so safe leaving them on our trip. Aunna was consistently communicating and sending photos of the pups. She is a wonderful sitter and we are grateful we found her.”

“Andrea and her family took my dogs over the weekend. They were great to deal with and very accommodating with some lasts minutes schedule changes! The dogs were happy and tired when we got them back, which is all we could ask for. I will definitely use Andrea again. Thanks!”

“Allison was so understanding of my little guys disabilities and I felt totally comfortable with him being there while I was away. She's very caring and loving. He even bonded with one of her pups and that warmed my heart. Thank you Allison for giving me the peace of mind while I was enjoying time with my son. Will be back definitely!!!”


“Brinkley had an amazing time with Angela, never a dull moment always on the move. There were plenty of neighborhood walks, park visits, and even a fun beach trip. He loved hanging out with “Bear,” his new pup buddy, and the two played endlessly together. Angela kept us relaxed with daily updates, fun photos, and thoughtful touches that made Brinkley’s stay both exciting and restful. Thanks to Angela’s warm home, positive energy, and welcoming family, Brinkley missed them all last night, making our choice for his next boarding stay an easy one.”

About: I’m not just a sitter—I’m a dog lover with real experience! My own pup adores the outdoors, so daily walks and happy tails are guaranteed I have a very flexible schedule. I make my schedule a week in advance, so I’m always flexible! I have my own dog who’s less than 2 years old, so always wanting to help other people out! I care for pets as if they’re my own! I have my own pup who loves exercise, so we’re always out on walks or at the dog park. I can also crate dogs if needed, and they’ll enjoy time in my parents’ fenced backyard—with a pool for extra fun and playtime!
“Michele was amazing! She sent regular updates and pics, allowed our dog to snuggle on the couch, has a great yard for the dog to run, and took her on regular walks. I will definitely be using Michele again!”

“Rachel could not have been more caring. Oliver enjoy his time with Rachel and loved his playtime. She was so thoughtful to send pics and videos of her stay with Oliver.”

“Hannah was the perfect sitter for my toy poodle. Very upbeat, lively, kind and caring. My dog clearly enjoyed staying with her and I would heartily recommend her to anyone looking for wonderful pet sitter.”

“Another great stay! Dottie had so much fun she wanted to stay! We know Dottie is in good hands with Thomas and his family! We appreciate the photos and updates. Dottie hopes to visit again soon.”

“Cosette was great! My dog is like my child, so I was a little hesitant to try something new, but I’m so glad I did! My dog, Cash, seemed to have a great time, and was super comfortable very quickly. I appreciated the videos and pictures I was sent throughout his stay, it made any nerves I had ease. Cash will definitely be back to stay, and I’m sure he will be looking forward to it.”

“Hannah was great with our big dog! Hannah was very communicative and adaptable when our travel plans got messed up. Would highly recommend her and hopefully get to leave Tucker with her again!”

“Finn has found his home away from home with Desi and her crew. He had the best time ever! He had excellent care, especially for his chronic ear infection, and then there was all the entertainment provided by his new best four legged friends. Returning from his vacation with Desi and getting back into the routine of his permanent home life is a bit of a let-down for him, but I am thrilled to know he has a place to stay that is not only safe and fun, but thanks to Chief also educational.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Bald Head Island home-away-from-home, 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 Bald Head Island.
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 Bald Head Island 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 , 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 .
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.
