“Katelyn made us feel very comfortable by meeting us in advance and showing us where Ladie would stay. She also sent us pics and updates to keep us posted on how Ladie was doing. Excellent experience and we will definitely use Katelyn again!”
“Emily and her family were all so nice and helpful keeping our pup. We had the convenience of visiting the beach while on vacation, care free. Our pup was being taken care of. It was truly a gift. She took him on multiple walks gave him food and water as well as many potty breaks. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you Emily. 10/10 recommend”
“Atina did a great job taking care of our pooch for Labor Day weekend. She sent several pictures and kept us updated as to what was going on. Will use her again when the need arises!”
“Danielle was AWESOME from the time we walked in the door she was very sweet and friendly. She sent us pictures and gave updates. I can tell my babies were treated with love and care. Thank Again Danielle... You ROCK!!!”
“Joe and Celeste were wonderful. They treated Oscar and Riley like their own. They followed the pups schedule and called if there was a question. The pups were very comfortable with them. Loved the pictures they sent. We will definitely contact them for all our future boarding needs.”
“Family friendly home. Fenced yard and clean. My girls were taken great care of, and I was updated through my vacation. I would recommend Amy and will be booking again.”
“Maddie was amazing with our boy Banks. Hey did Grainger was a great bud for Banks to play with. Maddie provided restart updates and videos so we didn't have to worry about how things were going. Highly recommend!!!”
About: I am so exited to host your fur babies! I've got grooming experience and am a stay at home dog sitter so there will always be quality time spent with each pet. Sometimes even dog facial massages otherwise known as moo-fa. I do have an outdoor area that we can run or play. I am willing to add in dog park or beach walks on request. I am part time remote student. I am also a freelance remote worker so having pups doesn't impact me at all. Just keeps me active. I will offer both services both in my home and in your home. I am pretty flexible to meet the needs of your pups. Just inquire.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was surrounded by all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to hamsters and rats—and I’ve always loved caring for animals. I’ve also had the opportunity to foster kittens and gain hands-on experience with a variety of pets. My mom was a veterinary technician for 30 years, so I grew up learning a lot about animal care, behavior, and what it means to keep pets happy and healthy. At 18, I started my own pet-sitting business back home in Connecticut. When I moved out of state, I left the business behind, but I’ve always wanted to get back into pet sitting—and now feels like the perfect time! I currently have two cats and two ball pythons of my own. My schedule is also very flexible right now, which means I’m able to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care. My time spent with your pets will involve lots of love and cuddles, walks and playtime, as well as treats as appropriate. I also have experience with administering medications to pets, so if this is something you need assistance with just let me know! I know how much our pets mean to us, and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry (or scaly!) family members! 🐾 I'm currently in between jobs and looking for something part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your babies, whether that be drop-ins or boarding. If needed, I have a dog crate at home for the safety of your pet while I am not at home. I have a 3 bedroom home in a peaceful community in Conway.
“Jody was amazing! She treated our 2 dogs as though they were her own. She sent photos every day we were away, took our dogs to the dog park several times during their stay and made them comfy and cozy. I know for sure they were happy and safe in Jody's care. Thank you Jody!”
“The absolute best! From the moment we met her, I felt completely comfortable leaving Billie in her care. She is incredibly personable, caring, and attentive. Billie came home happy, exhausted from all the fun, and clearly showered with love and attention. She also had a great time playing with her adorable pup! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and can’t wait to book again. Highly recommend!”
About: Dogs only want to give and receive love. They are, perhaps, Gods greatest creation. I've worked at a Veterinarian office/Doggy Day Care nearly 5 years, caring for all ages and sizes. I volunteer at the Sheriffs Animal Control Shelter in Supply. I believe dogs enrich the lives of the people around them. I've always been able to bond with dogs. A mutual trust has always come easy. They're all beautiful, and people could learn a lot from them. They make me laugh every day. Dogs will always be safe and happy with me watching over them. I wiil provide great companionship and a soft, warm touch while you're away. I guarantee that you will feel completely secure and confident with my abilities to maintain a safe, fun experience for your dog. Having someone you trust to care for your dog is invaluable. I will be that person. We love to be at home. Being on a walk or hanging outside is what we enjoy. I work at a doggy daycare and can fit pet care at home easily. Daily care of our dog is walking, feeding, brushing hair and teeth, love and cuddles, and of course playing games. We love to take our pebbles with us everywhere. We will give the same care to every dog we meet.
“Debra was fantastic! She took such great care of our dog when we went on vacation for the week. She sent us pictures to keep us updated. She has a fenced in, private backyard which was perfect for our dog. We would definitely use her again in the future.”
“We booked our pups stay for 5 nights with Samantha at the last minute when our original plans fell through. She was prompt with all communications, particularly when we messaged to check in on Toby. She sent several pictures and updates over the course of the stay- cute little videos of him playing with their puppy. She shared her concerns with us when Toby didn't eat well the first couple days, but let us know when his appetite returned. :) The night we picked Toby up we had a flight delay, and they were so kind and accommodating with the change in our plans. Toby was happy to see us and very tired from all his playing. :) Thanks Samantha!”
About: I am new to this site, but have used Wag! for quite some. I have been taking care of dogs since I was a young child and since then have taken care of almost every type of domestic animal. Whether you need your dog or cat walked, sat for, or boarded I can help. There's no dog too stubborn or cat too mean. I'm comfortable with all animals. Anything can be worked out... if there are instructions I need to follow, information I need to learn, or skills I need to master to make you feel safe, leaving your loved one with me I am willing. I am perfectly comfortable administering pets medication, tending to elderly pets, or even bottle-feeding any type of fur baby. When it comes to boarding, I have two live-in very friendly doodles, I trust them implicitly but they can be easily be kept (via large centrally located gate) separate from your fur baby if necessary or you feel more comfortable that way. I have a large fenced in backyard. My property is covered in cameras, both inside and out. I also have a GPS tracked fence and can have your pup wear a gps collar while staying here if you’d like for extra security. I would also be happy to pick-up and drop-off your pet to help make your travel plans more convenient and less stressful for you. I am not a giant stickler for start and stop times. No one can plan for traffic or a delayed flight. Travel is stressful enough so there should be no need to worry about that, everything can be worked out. Feel free to book me for sitting services if you need help whelping when your dog is in labor I am very familiar and could be a great help. I’m excited to meet and spend time with your fur baby family member 😁😁😁 I work from home, so I’m available for as many pet walks as walks as necessary, pet sitting and boarding. If I board your pet they will almost never if not actually never be left alone. I live in a house in a safe friendly neighborhood. I have a large fenced in yard that is reinforced with industrial chicken wire to prevent any smaller pups from escaping. Also, any dog that is to stay at my house can (upon owner request and or approval) be fitted with a GPS tracker for their stay here so they can be monitored by me at all times, even when just in the backyard. My property is covered outside and in with cameras and I have a security system. I have every size of cage and playpen if you’d like your pet to be kennel at night or if I have to run out for a minute. I also have a large gate in the main hallway of my house, which can be used to keep your pet separate from my two friendly doodles if that makes you more comfortable.
“Jaelyn is one of my favorite Rover sitters that I’ve encountered so far. I’m so happy that Jaelyn and (and friends,) and my pup Shady, all seemed to be such a great fit for each other. I could tell through the many messages and awesome photos I received, that Shady was getting so much love. He has been so worn out this evening after spending his wonderful weekend adventures with Jaelyn.”
“My cat had a wonderful time, there for over a week due to a funeral out of state. Lovely place to stay, lots to look at from the back screened porch, any cat would have lots to do. Grateful she could take her for a longer trip, not many places will take cats. Brought all of her many things like scratch box so she could get her energy out on that rather than inappropriate areas. Would book again in a heartbeat.”
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, goats, and just about every furry friend imaginable. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, which is why I strive to provide the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own dog. I share my home with Mabel, my energetic, friendly pup who loves making new friends! My sweet girl Mabel is energetic, playful, and enjoys the company of other dogs! However, she does appreciate a proper introduction before welcoming new friends into our home. 🐾 I encourage a meet-and-greet before boarding so Mabel and your pup can get acquainted, exchange a few sniffs, and make sure they’re both comfortable. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and peace of mind are always my top priorities! We live in the beautiful Windy Hill area of North Myrtle Beach, just four blocks from the ocean, with a yard for outdoor playtime and plenty of opportunities for fresh air and exercise. Whether your pup loves an active day of exploring or would rather curl up somewhere cozy for an afternoon nap, I’ll make sure their care is tailored to their personality, comfort level, and routine. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re away and make your pet feel like a cherished member of the family. Because to me, pets aren’t just animals — they’re family! 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make plenty of time for your furry family members! I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, outdoor breaks, and lots of love into my daily routine. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s individual schedule so they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I live in a pet-friendly home in the Windy Hill area, just four blocks from the beach, with a yard for supervised outdoor time. My dog Mabel is friendly and playful, but appreciates a proper meet-and-greet before welcoming new furry friends. I always follow each pet’s individual needs, routines, and house rules to make their stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible!
“Britney was absolutely fantastic! I’m pretty sure my dog had a better vacation with her than I did😂 great communication and so accommodating. 10 out of 10 would recommend and will definitely be using her in the future (and telling family and friends)!”
“Carina was great! She sent me picture updates without me asking, and took great care of my dog. She worked with me to pick my dog up a little earlier than scheduled without any issue. Would definitely use her again!”

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 Calabash 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 Calabash.
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 Calabash 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.
