“Diane was wonderful. I recently adopted my dog and was nervous to leave her for the first time, but Diane went above and beyond to make sure Nora and I both had a good experience. She allowed us to come over to her home for a thorough meet and greet with her dog, Gigi, to make sure the dogs were a good match. Diane was very flexible with pick-up and drop off times. She made sure to provide regular updates throughout my trip, which made me feel so much better about being far away. All in all, Diane and her family did an awesome job and I feel so comfortable leaving Nora with her in the future. 10/10! Thank you!”
“Sarah and her family were great to my pup Smokey Monroe. Smokey got plenty of walks and frisbee time and also had other pups to play with. Sarah sent photos and was very communicative. Overall Smokey had a great time and was well care for while I was away.”
“Jennifer took such great care of our dog. She sent updates and made sure he was walked and snuggled. We have had her watch Ferris twice now and he is so happy when he sees her!”
“Outstanding service! Carey updated us everyday with photos of our boy and asked many questions on our pups character/needs. We will definitely be returning to her. If you need someone to care for your pup, look no further!”
“Sue-Ling was amazing with my pup. It was his first time ever being boarded away from me and she kept me updated on him and how he was doing. She was very attentive. I will be booking with her again!”
“Allie V and Billy hit it off like long lost pals. Billy became a member of the family right away. Long walks and plenty of close attention. We are booking another stay w Allie V in 2 weeks!”
“Isabel was absolutely amazing with Storm! She sent photos throughout the day to put me at ease and certainly gave her plenty of exercise. She was available short notice and was flexible when my plane was delayed. I would highly recommend Isabel to anyone looking for boarding in the Wilmington area. I will definitely be calling her again when I travel again!”
“Caitlin is amazing! She sent us pictures of our dog, Maggie.. playing fetch, relaxing in the house, eating her meals.. Caitlin treated Maggie as if she was part of their family. She sent us daily reports of what Maggie's activities were. Very nice person. We will definitely be booking with Caitlin in the future.”
“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.”
“Ashley was wonderful. Personable & professional. Our pup Tau & I did a meet and greet first, and could feel right away that Ashley enjoys taking care of animals. Her home was animal friendly as evidenced by the comforters on the furniture so the pets could lay on them, lol. She provided plenty of pictures & updates. When I came to pick Tau up, I could tell he had been cared for, and was happy. Hope to be able to use her again, when the need arises. Thank you Ashley!!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover whose always had dogs and cats throughout my childhood and adulthood. I also have professional experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for 70+ dogs each day. That experience taught me how to handle dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs while making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. At home, we have a good sized fully fenced-in yard where your dog can run, play, and get plenty of outdoor time. I also love staying active myself, so going for walks with the dogs is one of my favorite parts of pet care. Whether your pet needs some extra playtime, a good long walk, or simply some love and companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I recently moved to North Carolina from Massachusetts with my fur babies and husband for my husband’s career and to continue his college career at UNCW. Currently, I am not working and pet care is my only focus. I give all my animals/the animals that I care for lots of love and attention. Additionally, I give them lots of play time and exercise.
About: I'm a dog lover and owner who has worked with other dogs for 10+ years. I understand how difficult it can be to find someone to trust with your fur babies! My goal is to be that person for you! I'm currently working part-time from home so I have flexibility to do walking or day care during the week and can facilitate boarding on some weekends! Please reach out for availability!! I look forward to meeting your fur baby! I can come to you or you can drop your fur baby off to me! I have a fully fenced yard (high fence) and also have two different sized crates depending on your fur baby's needs!
“Kell took awesome care of our sweet pup while we were away for an extended period of time. She sent frequent updates and made sure we knew he was getting plenty of love and playtime. I will be sure to book with her again if we have to leave Rico in someone else’s hands.”
“I can’t even put into words how awesome Kelly and her family are! I treat Louie like he is my child, and Kelly treats him the exact same! She sent constant pics of him and showed him so much love! Louie has a lot of allergies and is on a specific raw diet that can be a little time consuming and somewhat gross. She didn’t bat an eye when it came to dealing with that. I’ve used rover a couple of times in the past, and although the sitters have been good, no one has compared to her! She and her family are the sweetest. They’ll take great care of your pup and her grandchildren will keep them busy and playful! Such a wonderful family!”
“I have never left my dog with anyone other than friends before, so I was really nervous. I brought Finn to Helena's to meet before our vacation, and he took to her immediately. She sent me photos of him every day we were gone, and it made me so happy to see how much they were enjoying each other! He had so much fun that he barely got excited to see me when I picked him up! LOL! Is there a better compliment from a dog? Helena is fabulous and we will be using her again!!!!”
“Abigail communicated well and took good care of Cleo. She sent photos and kept me up to date. Cleo seemed to have a good time also. Just be sure to be clear if you only are looking for your pet to be the only dog as Cleo ended up boarding with another dog even though the sitters profile only indicated one pet at a time.”
“Emma was wonderful! She is very communicative, has a lovely home and yard, and the cutest dogs. My dog got along with hers because they were very friendly. Emma was quick to reply, she gave me peace of mind on my unexpected trip out of town for a funeral. She sent pics and videos and gave updates throughout the day. I will definitely use her for all future bookings!!!”
“Thank you so much to Brittany and her family for the exceptional care you provided to our 5 year old Great Dane, Willow! While away on vacation for nearly two weeks, we received many daily updates and photos showing their daily activities including Willow. Brittany and her family truly made Willow one of their own. It was obvious in the photos that Willow loved playing with Brittany’s sweet kids, enjoying her daily walks, and playing in the backyard as a part of the family. Brittany provided more than just “dog-sitting”; she provided a caring family (Willow even made friends with their cats!). Without a doubt I would recommend Brittany for a pet-sitter. She and her family are genuine, kind, caring, and simply exceptional people. They did an absolutely fabulous job keeping Willow well-loved and well taken care of while we were away. Thank you again to Brittany and your family!!”

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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.
94% of sitters in Bells Crossroads can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Bells Crossroads 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 Bells Crossroads.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bells Crossroads. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Bells Crossroads 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
