“I'm certain Barkley and Coco had a great time. They were clean and tired:) Brooke sent us pictures as agreed. I will definitely be using Brooke in the future.”
“Scarlett is my ‘Go To’ caregiver for my 2 dogs! They love to come here and I think they feel comfort and safety being here. We are blessed to have found Scarlett! Thanks for taking such good care of Kaysee and Krickett !”
“We love Kim! She gives our crazy beagle boy, Rudy, lots of love and attention. Always willing to work with us on bookings and is very quick to respond. Thank you, Kim!”
“Donald does a great job picking Duke up, watching him at his home and bringing Duke back home. He communicates daily with pictures and texts. Duke is always happy and well following his stays. Donald is our go to dog sitter and we highly recommend him.”
“Absolutely 5 star service with Megan! She sent me daily photos and updates of my fur baby, giving me peace of mind and allowing me to focus on my work while I was out of town. I will most definitely book with her again and highly recommend you do as well!”
“I’ve come to Karen time and time again to watch my boy Bruce, she’s very flexible and understanding. She doesn’t an OUTSTANDING job with Bruce and I will continue to use her. If you’re having any doubts, don’t!”
“We have left our Bernedoodle with Bryanna multiple times, and he absolutely loves it there. This past time, after we opened the car door, he sprinted up to them, and never looked back. He couldn’t have been any more excited, and that means so much to us dog parents. Bryanna is amazing with communication and daily updates. We are so thankful to have found her!”
“Caitlin was absolutely amazing! From our very first meet-and-greet, I could tell she genuinely loves dogs and has such a warm, caring energy. I was nervous about leaving my baby, Lexi, with someone new, but Caitlin went above and beyond—she even managed two last-minute walks to get to know Lexi better before her stay. By the time we dropped Lexi off for four days, it felt like leaving her with a trusted friend. Caitlin kept me updated with regular messages, photos, and videos (which almost made me jealous—Lexi was so happy!). She took such great care of my girl, making sure she got plenty of walks, playtime, and even runs. When Lexi was hesitant to eat, Caitlin ran out to get some deli meat to top her food—just one of the many ways she went the extra mile. I can’t recommend Caitlin enough! If you’re looking for a sitter who will treat your pup like family, she’s the one. ❤️🐶”
“Rachel and Donald watched our black lab Abby for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. It was the first time we left her for so long. Rachel and Donald treated Abby like family, their two dogs got along great with Abby and we were updated with notes and pictures regularly.”
“Margaret was amazing! She kept me updated throughout the stay and was flexible with the drop off and pick up times! She was so friendly and easy to communicate with. I will definitely be booking with her again! My pup loved her as well!”
“Eric was a great dog sitter for Jack! He had excellent communication throughout the entire stay and sent pictures every day, which gave me peace of mind knowing Jack was doing well. I really appreciated the updates and knowing Jack was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Eric to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I would absolutely book with him again!”
“Anamika is amazing!! She sent pics while I was away and my Benji boy had the best time! He had so much fun, he didn’t want to come home! Already have 2 more dates booked with her in the near future!”
“I could not be happier to have found Joseph and Christine! They took such good care of my baby! They sent numerous pictures throughout the day (good quality ones by the way lol)! They made my baby feel at home! I am so grateful for them and for the excellent care they gave my sweet Lily💕 I will 100% be coming back any time I have to travel.”
“Thank you Lipika for the great experience with my fur-babies. I have not ever left them with anyone with the fear of distrust. You have made this feeling a blessing for us all. I can tell they love you. Especially Sebastian who don’t seem to take to outside the family. I see you know your way with dogs behaviors and how to handle it. Im definitely looking forward to our next meet. I have spread the word that you’re awesome. I’ll call you the dog-whisper😊”

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
96% of sitters in Catawba can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Catawba home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Catawba.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Catawba. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Catawba 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
