“Siomara was so great with our little guy! He can be shy around new people and places, so we tried a few times to get him accustomed to her place before a two week stay. He was getting adjusted though was still nervous at the time of drop off. We found that he quickly adjusted however and he had a wonderful stay with Siomara and her daughter Angie!”

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.
“Serina was WONDERFUL with my senior pup! I was very nervous about leaving Annie somewhere she had never been before, since in the past she's only ever boarded at a familiar facility or stayed with family members. Serina was very flexible with my last-minute request and took great care of Annie. She also sent me very sweet pictures of my girl looking relaxed and happy, which helped settle my nerves. I would definitely send Annie to Serina again!”
“Krystene and her family were great! They took such great care of our dog while we were away. I got regular updates and photos. I would absolutely book with Krystene again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Kristin took wonderful care of our dog for a week while we were away. Our dog was safe, well cared for, and perhaps most importantly, loved as if we were with her. Kristin treated our dog as one of her own. Thank you Kristin!”
“I can’t thank Cherie and her family enough for taking such great care of my dogs. They are very anxious and not always easy, but she showed them so much patience, kindness, and love. Knowing they were with someone so sweet gave me such peace of mind. Highly recommended and will definitely be bringing my boys back!”
“Our pup Lizard loved her time at Shannon's, exploring the lovely backyard and hanging out with Shannon's pack! Shannon was a great host, very responsive to our messages, and always spoiling Lizard. Lizard will definitely be back!”

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.
Patrick did an amazing job watching after our dog Manju. He was super responsive coordinating everything, including drop off and pick up. He also sent lots of pictures which we loved. We felt Manju was well cared for and got lots of attention. Patrick did such a great job, and we've already rebooked him for another trip next month.
This is the second time Megan has cared for my dog during my international trips, and I couldn't be happier. I'm always happy to receive the photos she shared, and it's wonderful to see that my dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable boarding home!
Camille did a great job with our dog. Our dog had frequent walks and playtime. Fortunately for our dog, Camille's niece was also in town and she loved to play fetch and generally play with our dog as well. Camille was very attentive, took plenty of videos and pictures to send to me, communicated well, and was also flexible. Will ask her to help again when needed.
Veronica has been an exceptional dog sitter for our sweet dog Pallino. She sent us daily updates and proved to be attentive to his needs of nice daily walks as well as snuggles... Our dog also had a minor health issue, which Veronica addressed quickly and thoroughly, including her communication with us. During our vacation we felt at ease knowing that Veronica was with our dog throughout the day and he was always well taken care of. We also had a flight cancellation and asked her for a very last minute extension, which she graciously agreed. Thanks Veronica for being such a caring and responsible sitter for our dog!
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!

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 Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
