“I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you for caring for Finn while I was away. Your kindness, attention, and updates gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear how much you care, and I’m truly grateful.”
“Scarlett was great with my pups. I have one senior dog and one puppy. She was accommodating for both energy levels of dogs and gave me daily updates with photos. I will definitely be rebooking with her again. Thanks again Scarlett!”
“Very caring family who will take in your furry loved one, and take care of them with love. She also takes the BEST pics and sends them with updates throughout the visit. Brooke is great!”
“I recently hired Michelle to care for my dog, and it was an amazing experience! From our first meeting, it was clear that Michelle is a true dog lover. She took the time to understand my dog's needs, which made me feel at ease. Throughout the stay, Michelle provided excellent care, ensuring my dog received plenty of love, exercise, and attention. She sent regular updates and adorable photos, and videos showing that my dog was enjoying his time. I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle for anyone needing a caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my dog!”
“We are a repeating customer of Brittany. My pups receive her well, are taken care of and appear very happy under their care. Brittany is very accommodating and pleasant to work with. I will be using her services for future sittings. You should as well!”
“Brittany has been great with my pups. I felt super comf with them staying with her and her family. It helps a lot that she has her pup with her, who's super extroverted and helped get my younger dog out of his shell. I strongly recommend her! I'm just bummed that she's moving away from me 😞”
“We left our dog with Bri for the first time for 5 days. She was accommodating and sent updates with pictures every day. Our dog did well with her and her dogs and family. I would happily use Bri again.”
“Debora was amazing. She was very kind and caring. You can tell right away that she truly loves animals. She took great care of our dog Cali. I am so thankful that I found her on Rover. She was great with communication. This was our first experience using Rover and I would do it again. I would recommend Debora to anyone looking for a great care giver to your dog. Thank you Debora.”
“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter on Rover! They took such great care of our dog and treated him with so much love and attention. We received updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dog looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We are very grateful and would definitely book with them again. Highly recommended!”
“Megan was a great sitter and helped us out last minute. Dakota definitely enjoyed his time with her and we’re grateful for her ability to sit with him would definitely book with her again. She kept us updated every day and was very flexible with us as well.”
“Henry had a good stay at Norma’s and although he really does not like to be away from us he seemed to be fine when we picked him up and also later when we got him home; he fell back into his routine very quickly. Norma is very knowledgeable about dogs and made several suggestions during our meet and greet that made the transitions and stay that much easier. We will use Norma again when we need daycare or short term boarding.”
“Ashley was totally awesome! This was a last-minute booking as we left WNC after Hurricane Helene, and couldn't accommodate Casper where we were staying. She was totally calm and in charge, which Casper needs since his tendency to shepherd and try to be in charge is so strong. He needs to know he's not in control. Ashley took great care of him physically and psychologically. I'll definitely seek her services again if we're in the area!”
“Aquisha was amazing with my dog. She sent plenty of updates, pictures and videos. She has a great backyard. My dog was taken on plenty of walks and had a lot of play time outside. I look forward to rebooking with Aquisha in the future!”
“Erika was absolutely wonderful! She was easy to work with, communicated great throughout Gracie’s stay, and provided frequent updates that gave me peace of mind. It was clear Gracie was well cared for and comfortable. I would gladly have Gracie stay with Erika again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Lawrence was great! I was really nervous leaving my boys with anyone but me (from previous bad sitters) but Lawrence did an amazing job! He sent me pictures almost everyday and even helped my big dog be properly introduced to other big dogs. I will definitely be going back and I'm almost positive my big dog wants me to take him back too ;)”
“Paisley’s favourite place to go. She is treated like family and misses theirs when we bring her home. It is such peace of mind when we have to travel for work that Paisley is taken care of and loved.”
“Karen did an absolutely amazing job caring for Bucky! From the moment we met her, it was clear how genuinely kind, attentive, and dependable she is. She treated Bucky like her own, making sure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for at all times. Her updates gave us complete peace of mind, and we could tell Bucky was relaxed and content in her care. It’s not easy to fully trust someone with your pet, but Karen exceeded every expectation. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable, and exceptional sitter.”
“Ann is wonderful! She sent us daily photos and updates on how our dogs were doing. They had a blast in the doggy pool, made a new friend, and she even let our puppy try sleeping in the bed and it went really well! We will be using Ann in the future.”

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 Bear Poplar 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 Bear Poplar.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Bear Poplar 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.
