“My pup enjoyed so much his stay with Vanessa, I had the feeling he was sad I took him back home :) I absolutely loved seeing the daily pictures and videos - I knew he was having fun while being well-taken care of. We will be returning.”
“Amanda took excellent care of our dog! She gave him plenty of play and exercise opportunities, as well as cleaning him up after he went for a swim. Very appreciative for her conscientious care of our beloved dog while we were away :)”
“I truly cannot put into words how amazing Evie and Fritz are as dog sitters. My dog, Bean, absolutely adores them, which was very evident from all the photos they sent of her cuddling with them and playing with them and the other pups at their house. I’m so happy I found them and will be bringing Bean here any time I need a sitter. Thank you, Evie and Fritz!!”
“This was my dog’s first time staying over with someone he didn’t really know, but Sharon really helped ME feel comfortable about the environment where I would be leaving him. It’s obvious this is a house that loves dogs and prioritizes their well being. He enjoyed his time at her house and I felt good about leaving him there.”
“Emily and Will are the world’s greatest pet sitters. I am very new to being a dog mom. They helped to ease my anxiety by having a pet met and greet, during my 5 day trip, they sent me pictures of my doggy, and my dog had a great visit all because of Emily and Will. I am so grateful for their compassion, patience, and empathetic pet sitters. I will use Emily and Will for future petsitting needs. You will be pleased with their services!!”
“This is our first time being away from our dogs and we were anxious to leave them in someone else's care, but we're so glad that we found Heather! She treated them as if they were her own and we could tell that the dogs had a wonderful time with her and her husband. We got to fully enjoy our trip because we knew that the dogs were taken care of and that they were also having fun. We'll definitely seek her out again in the future for our next trip. Highly recommend to other dog parents! 11/10 :D”
“Our girl always has a blast with Marilyn and her crew. We drive the distance from our home because we know she is well taken care here. I highly recommend Marilyn!”
“Karla was an excellent host for my dog Goose! She was very responsive and provided pictures and videos each day she watched him. She was also very flexible when I unexpectedly had to ask for another day of hosting. Overall very satisfied!”
“Cathy is a real gem, a treasure. Our boy George was in heaven during his stay with her. Her communications were frequent and the pictures were great. I never felt any sense of concern on my vacation about the care of my pet. I highly recommend Cathy but I would like to keep her as a best kept secret because she's so good at that she does. Thank you Cathy!”
“Jade was the perfect dog sitter for my chihuahua. She sent many cute photos and frequent updates. Jade was very flexible and an excellent communicator. I would book her again and would recommend her to friends!”
“Ashleigh and Jason were amazing! My sweet Izzy was taken into their home like a member of their own family. It was her first stay with them and they made me feel at ease providing updates and sending pictures regularly. When I picked her up I could tell immediately that she was happy and so well loved and taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend Ashleigh and Jason, Izzy will be back with them in July for our next vacation!”
“Krystene is an AMAZING sitter. She took care of my anxious puppy, and even helped with his medical treatment. I highly recommend her because your baby will be in very good care with her.”
“Ashley did an amazing job taking care of Wiley! She was incredibly flexible with my last-minute request and handled everything seamlessly. She was so sweet to Wiley and did a fantastic job keeping up with his high energy through lots of walks and playtime with his favorite toys. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely love to book with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Paris did a wonderful job watching my Senior dachshund for a week. It was my pet’s first time staying with someone who she didn’t know. I was really nervous about leaving her but my pet did great. Paris sent pictures and messages every day about what had happened during that day. My pet seemed to settle in well and had a great stay. I definitely will contact Paris again if I need to board my little Doxie again.”
“Joe and Hitoko took care of our Lady Lou for more than a week, and she had the best time with them. I’m so thankful! My girl is usually very nervous and slow to warm up to people—sometimes she even gets stressed at home with us. But Joe made her feel safe, loved, and cared for. As an overprotective dog mom, getting regular updates, photos, and videos was such a comfort. It honestly felt like a family member was looking after her. They’re the best pet sitters—thank you so much!”
“Ashley was wonderful from start to finish — from our first chat to the meet & greet and throughout Millie’s stay. She’s incredibly responsive, accommodating, and just so easy to work with. The whole experience felt seamless and completely stress-free. During Millie’s stay, Ashley sent regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Millie was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. I trust Ashley with Millie so much that I’ve already booked another stay with her! I’m so grateful we found her and would happily & highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and dependable sitter.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Calvander
Fritz and Evie were absolutely wonderful with Layla! They treated her as their own, provided constant and consistent updates with pictures, and made sure she was as comfortable as possible. I even received a picture with a note on the back at the end of her stay. I enthusiastically recommend Fritz and Evie to anyone looking for a dog sitter!
Heather put our mind at ease immediately. She took wonderful and loving care of our senior, special needs pup. She sent several photos and updates and when we picked our boy up, it was obvious that he was comfortable and happy. Will definitely book again.
Emily and Lamar were amazing! They took great care of our little guy and he has an absolute blast. They kept us informed and updated the entire stay with pictures and messages. We really appreciate them and can’t wait to book with them in the future. Would highly recommend to anyone!
Molly and Henry and their dog Hank were wonderful hosts for our dog Lucy. They welcomed her into their home, took her for walks, and gave her lots of love. Lucy had plenty of human and canine company over the week. Molly was super responsive and sent plenty of updates and photos. We wouldn't hesitate to book them again next time we travel. Thank you!!

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 Calvander 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 Calvander.
<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 Calvander 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.
