“We hit the jackpot. :) Reached out to Cynthia very last minute as we were passing through Chapel Hill to catch a volleyball game. She was open to watch our Golden and it couldn’t have worked out better. She made us feel so comfortable with the drop off and her knowledge of dogs from a first impression gave us peace of mind to enjoy our evening. Can’t recommend her enough! Great communication, drop off and pick up. And our pup is passed out for the night! :)”
“Heather was an amazing host for my puppy, Odin! She sent me pictures throughout the day and got him out for a nice, long walk. My initially hesitant boy even took a minute to notice me when I picked him up, because he had obviously become so comfortable under Heather’s care. Can’t recommend enough!”
“Boston doesn't normally do well when I leave him...But Julie sent pictures and he looked so comfortable. He doesn't normally eat and he ate dinner...Julie thanks for creating a space where Boston felt at home!”
“Ashley took care of our Dobby in the most amazing way we could ever imagine. She understood what’s need for the pup beforehand , and was very informed. She kept us informed on how he is doing without even us having to ask for it. She even helped us to load and unload Dobby’s things in the car. She was amazing! I highly highly recommended her and I am so confident that she would take care of any dog like her own as she loves doing it.”
“Karla and her family are amazing, and care so much for our little boy. Within a few hours of our first day care stay, I knew Karla’s place would be a great spot for Koda’s weekly daycare. He has so much fun with Karla’s dog Dexter - he’s always as happy as can be when I pick it up. I highly recommend Karla for anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter for their pup!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family and friends since I was ten. I love being able to make new connections with animals and people and can’t wait to be able to help you out with your pet!!! I’m currently in school and my schedule is very flexible! Let me know what works best for you and your pet and I will most likely be available. I have a large fenced in yard and a friendly, fluffy, (maybe a little bit chubby) flat coated retriever to give your pet company!! The whole family loves pets just as much as I do and would treat yours as our own.
“From our short meet and greet I knew she would be very attentive to Sophie. Her dog Wally and Sophie got along well. I would recommend Hannah for any of your petting sitting needs.”
“Potato can require some help managing his energy and engaging appropriately in new situations. David talked us through his ideas of plans A and B and kept us updated. Thanks to his careful attention, Potato ended up having a fantastic day. He came home happy, relaxed, and absolutely exhausted! A raging success.”
About: I moved to the South 12 years ago after 16 years in my beloved NYC. First I fell in love with Atlanta and for the last two years I've been in Durham, NC, where I just earned my MFA in Experimental and Documentary Arts. Me and my two pit bull rescues Rolfie and Dita have loved walking in the woods, although we just had to say goodbye to Rolfie in 2026 after a full and joyful doggie life. I grew up with miniature dachsunds, but I really got to know dogs and their cues when I rescued a pit bull from the shelter where I was a volunteer dog walker in NYC. I've cared for older, special-needs dogs and feisty high-energy dogs as well as my own. I respect owners' *and* doggies' boundaries, and I know basic training techniques and operant conditioning training. I can't wait to get to know you and your fur kids. I am working from home right now and am prepared to walk your dog three times a day with a longer walk (up to an hour) in the cooler hours at the end of the day. I feed my dog twice day plus treats with training, but I am happy to feed yours according to your preferred schedule I have a fenced yard and shaded porch for surveying the street. Inside I have loads of dog beds. My dogs are welcome on furniture, but I will respect your rules in that regard.
“Vincent was very accommodating and responded quickly to my last minute request. He came out to greet us and the pups were comfortable with him immediately. He was very friendly and made sure everyone was harnessed and leashed for the short trip from the car to the fence. He has a nice fenced area for them to play and sent cute videos and photos. The pups appeared to have a great time and especially enjoyed their playtime with his two dachshunds! I will definitely use him again for daycare and drop-in visits.”
About: With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs big and small, I bring patience, skill, and a lot of love to every pup I meet. From playful companions to rescues needing extra care, I’ve crate trained, fostered, and supported pets with a gentle, structured approach making sure they always feel safe, happy, and at home. I work remotely in tech with a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my day. Walks, playtime, and snuggles easily flow between work hours, making sure your pet always gets the attention they deserve. In my home, your pets a cared for in a safe, cozy space, with regular walks, playtime, and plenty of love. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, keeping feeding, walks, and care consistent so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether at my place or yours, I create a calm, loving environment where pets can relax and be safe and happy.
About: Although I don't currently have a dog of my own, I have a deep love for dogs and enjoy spending time with them whenever I can. I understand that pet owners sometimes need a helping hand, and I love being able to provide care, companionship, and a break when it's needed. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As someone who has a 3 year old son , we enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, I love incorporating walks, playtime, and quality time with pets into my schedule. I am organized, reliable, and make time to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In a client's home, I follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions.
About: I have a natural connection with dogs. I have owned dogs over the years, as a child and as an adult. I have been in contact with many breeds and I haven't met a dog that didn't like me or I didn't love. I would care for your pet as if they were my own. I'm reliable and attentive to your pets needs by showering them with love and affection. I have a happy home with many trails for walks and runs. I'm available most of the day and can accomodate most schedules. I currently have a small chiweenie (Dachshund-Chihuahua mix). She is spade and about 3 years old. She is a rescue dog. She is very well tempered and gets along with all dogs, big and small.
About: 24yrs experience with animal big & small, young or old. I have experience with rescue animals who required that little bit of extra care/patients/medication & rehabilitation. I currently work as a (bank)senior hca for the NHS and pick & choose my shifts so I can work round each individuals requirements and have plenty of time for fun play dates with your wonderful pets I can care for your pets in their own home to reduce any stress caused by change. I also live on a farm and have an enclosed field for play dates with my own friendly retriever Cassie.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Calvander commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 1,196 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NC. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
