“Scottie had such a good time with Natalie. He was able to play a ton and being able to free roam definitely made him feel right at home. Natalie was also super responsive and flexible when I had to modify my booking with her.”
“Robert and his wife were absolutely amazing! It was obvious that the love dogs and our pup Sammy automatically became part of their family while he was there.. Communication was great with lots of pictures and updates. I felt so comfortable I was able to enjoy our vacation, knowing our pup was is great hands. Sammy was very happy there and will definitely be coming back!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple pets for family and friends! I’ve worked previously in a dog daycare/boarding and have knowledgeable skills in caring for animals! I have experience in caring for pets of all ages and even performing some grooming services, such as baths, and nail trims. I currently work in vet med and have experience noticing any abnormalities in dog behavior or health. I currently work full-time, however I make time to make sure all pets in my care are physically exercised and mentally stimulated. Both of which are very important to me. I try to give the pets in my care a wonderful time with lots of exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation! They will also receive a lot of hugs and cuddles while they are here!
“Angela is amazing!!! She took great care of Lexi and kept us informed on her daily activities. Sent lots of pictures which we truly appreciated. We will definitely go back, I would highly recommend Angela.”
“Rebecca and Pippa were great with my pup Harlow! She felt comfortable as soon as she met both of them. Rebecca was wonderful about being flexible with our changing travel plans and was very communicative and responsive. Would definitely recommend and use again! Thanks Rebecca and Pippa! :)”
“Hilary took such great care of our girl! Sadie has a lot of quirks and takes time to warm up and Hilary was patient and understanding. I had a lot of peace of mind while we were away on our trip knowing she was well taken care of!”
“Jay was amazing! Our dog was well cared for and Jay gave us great updates. He communicated promptly and our pup was definitely cared for! Highly recommend Jay as a sitter for your pet.”
About: I have worked with all types of animals since I was a child. My friends would call me the dog whisperer because I just understand them naturally! I love training dogs and horses. I currently have 3 dogs, 2 cats and a flock of ducks! All of my dogs have been raised from puppies. I have cared for senior pets as well. I have spent hundreds of hours over the last several years educating myself on animal behavior for my own pets benefits so I am well equipped to love and care for yours as well! I have always been passionate about working with animals of all type. I will always go the extra mile to provide topnotch care and service. My husband and I travel often so I know how important it can be to find petcare that you can feel good about! I currently work from home full time with a very flexible schedule. I am able to come to your house during the day or stay nights! I can offer limited boarding as well. I love animals and I love travel. I would be committed to caring for your pets as if they were my own. I enjoy getting to know your pets as each one is so special. I am reliable and can accommodate just about any extra requests such as bathing, working on training skills, hiving medication, providing adequate excercise etc. I will ALWAYS do this with your pets safety and happiness as my top priority.
“Cosette took amazing care of our two dogs! It was easy to see that they were well-loved and felt at home. They came home content and happy. I think they were even sad to leave Cosette and her family. They enjoyed the walks and playing ball. They received all the affection they needed and more. While we were away, we received messages and videos, and Cosette was always quick to respond. This was our first time using Rover and the whole experience was great! I would definitely use Cosette again!”
“Thank you so much Andrea for taking such great care of my pup Riley on such short notice. I really appreciate the quick responses, flexibility, and the pics. Riley was walked, well cared for, and was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. I high recommend Andrea and look forward to booking again!”
About: You can trust me to take excellent care of your pet! As well as owning my own pets most of my life (dogs, cats, ferret, bird, rabbits, etc.), I also have a Bachelor of Science degree in pre-veterinary medicine. I have pet-sat for several friends and clients, volunteered at shelters, worked at veterinary clinics, boarding facilities, and for a professional dog walking / cat sitting company. You can rest easy as your pet will be safe in my care. I follow directions well and get the details right! Why I love dog walking and sitting: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. My first dog, Chief, helped raise me! Since then, I have owned a dog most of my life. Some have called me the "dog-whisperer". I have a pretty good perception of dogs and connect very easily with most. My last dog, Wendell, was a 150 lb. mastiff whom I adopted when he was 4.5 years old. He had never been socialized and was scared of most people, so in the six years we were together, I gained a lot of first-hand experience working through behavioral issues in a very large and strong breed. Our current dog is Lucy, a happy-go-lucky bull terrier who is deaf. She loves every living being! I’m also comfortable taking care of cats and other pets. My experience administering medication: I've given lots of oral meds and various ointments, eye drops, ear drops, etc. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m typically available any day of the week and can do early mornings and late evenings if needed. Let me know your needs and I will do my best to accommodate! We have a secure, fenced yard, a doggie door, and a covered back patio with doggie beds perfect for lounging in the sun or shade. We also have a friendly bull terrier who will happily keep your dog company! We can easily keep your dog in a separate room while we are away from the house if you prefer. Lucy’s dad/my significant other, Pedro, also lives here and also loves animals.
“Clare is wonderful! She has such an adorable and sweet family She sent lots of pictures and updates. I couldn’t have asked for a better fit to care of our pup while we traveled.”
“Rachel could not have been more caring. Oliver enjoy his time with Rachel and loved his playtime. She was so thoughtful to send pics and videos of her stay with Oliver.”
“Helena gave so much love to our dog and she has a comfortable and trustworthy environment. I felt I did not need to worry while on vacation. She took detailed notes since our pet has a special diet, and she seemed to enjoy cuddling and exercising our pet.”
About: I currently have a 10 year old female yellow lab, 10 year old male outdoor cat, and a 3 year old guinea pig! I do weekly stays for a family in landfall with three doodles, and have lots of experience with all ages, breeds, and needs! I am experienced and comfortable with giving medications to all animals such as pills, oral medications, eye drops, ear drops, etc! I’m currently finishing up at CFCC this year, and own two online businesses. I am very reliable and flexible! I babysit only on Mondays, which leaves my week free. I will follow guidelines, routines, and schedules to ensure your pet feels at home and comfortable with me. I love sending check in photos so you can know what your fur baby is up to!
“Brooklin took amazing care of my cat, Lylla, while I was away. Lylla is very shy around new people, but Brooklin was incredibly patient and was able to get her to warm up, which says a lot! She went above and beyond to make sure Lylla was comfortable and cared for, even helping encourage her to eat when she wasn’t showing much interest in food. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. Brooklin kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my spoiled girl was in good hands. I could tell she genuinely cared about Lylla’s well-being and treated her like her own. I would absolutely book with Brooklin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”
About: I’m a dependable, caring dog sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs in a home setting—including my own friendly Golden Retriever. I understand daily routines, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving dogs the attention they need to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. As a mom of four, I’m naturally nurturing, patient, and attentive to details. I treat every pet like part of the family and am happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home throughout the day and able to provide consistent care, attention, and supervision. I primarily offer in-home boarding, so your dog will be part of our daily routine and won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m available most weekdays and weekends with flexible scheduling to fit your needs. Your pet will be cared for in a safe, clean, and calm home environment.

I follow your dog’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions. Dogs in my care are treated like family, and I provide regular updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Castle Hayne
This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!
We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Christina! This was the first time we’ve ever left our pup, so naturally we were a little nervous, but we truly didn’t have to worry at all. We received photos, videos, and updates throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious that our dog was getting plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and love. Our dog is young, energetic, and can be a handful at times, but our sitter handled her wonderfully and followed all of our care instructions perfectly. The best part was seeing how happy our dog was when we picked her up. She was clearly well cared for and comfortable the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust her with our dog again. Highly recommend!
This is th second time, our Nelly has spent with Danika and her family. And I think they really take our girl into their family. Her husband and kids are involved and make an effort to come out to greet us too. Nelly wears her emotions on her sleeve😂and she is a happy girl when we leave her and when we pick her up. This gives us a great peace of mind. Thank you, Danika. We look forward to Nelly staying with you again. And again.

There are 408 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Castle Hayne. About 92% of Castle Hayne sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
