“This was my first time leaving my fur baby with anyone and leaving her in Shekenia’s care was the best decision I could’ve made! I honestly don’t see myself leaving my dog with anyone else other than Shekenia because she’s just that dang good! I received daily updates and photos which I loveddd! I knew from the moment we met to do the drop off that I made the right choice. Her energy was everything and I knew my baby would be in great hands! 10/10 recommend!! Shekenia is the BEST!”

“I am so grateful to have found Mitzi through Rover. My Zazu loves her and her family. Mitzi shares pictures and is flexible with my last minute requests. Highly recommend!!!”

“Stacey did an awesome job watching our pup! I know our dog was at ease & comfortable with her which was super important to us. She would communicate with us throughout the day & send us many updates which we loved. Our dog can be a handful meeting other dogs and isn’t the best on the leash but Stacey did great with her! She gave her lots of loves and cuddles too which was so appreciated while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again in the future!!”


“I really appreciated Sony's focus on keeping the dogs calm from the first meet-and-greet to when I picked them up after their stay. Drop-off and pickup were super streamlined so that the dogs aren't all nervous and I could easily get the dogs in and then bring their supplies in separately. Great experience, she will be my go-to from now on!”

“Andrew, was AMAZING!! Kept me informed, sent me lots of pics, followed Snoops schedule and instructions. Came home to a happy and healthy pup ☺️ thank you so much!”

“We are over the moon with the great service Myles provided for our pooch, Scooter! I told Myles and I mean it, he has a client for life. Scooter had the best time and came home happy as a clam but also worn out in the best possible way. GOOD JOB !!!”
“Milika did a wonderful job caring for my Moses. Got plenty of updates and pictures. She even accommodated his special food request, to ensure he wasn’t too sad to eat. Plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. 10/10 recommend.”

“Brandi and John did a wonderful job and kept me updated throughout the whole stay. My pup had a great time and I was also able to relax knowing she was in great hands. Thank you!”

“Zach and his family are the absolute best! They send so may cute updates and are so responsive. They helped us out in an unexpected crisis in a big way. Would absolutely love to rebook with them.”

“Where do I begin with this review?! Monica was amazing with our little guy, Harlem! This was the first time he had been away from home for 7 days. We went on our family vacation and because of how at ease I felt after meeting Monica and seeing her interact with our dog, I could fully enjoy the vacation. She sent me pictures and videos of him having a fun time with the other dogs! She responded anytime I reached out. She was patient with him and helped him get used to playing well with the other dogs! By the time we picked him up, he was interacting with the other dogs, beautifully…like he had been playing with other dogs all his life?! We will be scheduling more time for Harlem to visit with Monica and her family! I am so grateful to Monica for making sure our little guy enjoyed his vacation while we were enjoying ours!❤️”

“We couldn't be happier with the care Hilary and Lucas provided for our dog, Sparta! He had an absolute blast during his stay and even made some new furry friends. It's clear they genuinely love what they do and treat every dog like their own. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our boy! We highly recommend their service to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their pup.”

“Kourtney was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Teddi and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She was incredibly communicative, sent tons of photos and updates throughout the weekend, and it was obvious Teddi was getting so much love and attention. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with Kourtney again. Highly recommend!”

“Tokena and her babies was amazing. Beans felt right at home. They made him feel comfortable and at home. Tokena kept me updated and sent pictures regularly calming my nerves. LOL He will be back.”

“Matt and his family children such a great sitter always giving updates and my dog was treated beautifully I can tell and she’s happier that she was able to meet gentle and kind people I am considering Matt from now on ???”

“Great experience! Sonya was VERY welcoming to me and Maya (my doggy) and asked good questions. She kept me updated the whole time with pictures and messages. She ensured that Maya was comfortable and made the entire process very easy.”

“This was our first time using Miriam to board our fur baby Pepper for the weekend. We were a little nervous since we had a regular sitter for years until we moved a couple months ago. She helped us have peace of mind by showing us where our dog would be staying as well as asking us questions that would help her to care for Pepper. Miriam was very transparent and also introduced us to her doggie 🐶. Everything went smoothly and she kept us updated throughout the weekend. We were also pleasantly surprised that our dog was not as nervous as we thought she would be and was able to adapt quickly. Definitely recommend Miriam and will be using her services again.”


“Sally is the best dog sitter! Our baby boy had a blast with the other pops. My husband gets very down when we leave Chewbacca but Sally kept up updates daily and sent us pictures which made my husband enjoy our vacation. Thank you so much Sally! ❤️”

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 Castalia 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 Castalia.
<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 Castalia 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.
