“Rudy had a great overnight stay with Mary. She is a good communicator and sent me pics which I appreciated getting. Mary is a great new resource to me especially since she is only 5 minutes from my home. Thanks again, Mary!”
“My dogs LOVED their stay with Anna! I’ve definitely found my new go to person for boarding my dogs. Anna was incredibly communicative throughout the whole stay and provided plenty of pictures and updates. I’ve never felt more at ease with someone watching our pups!”
“We have never left our pup anywhere except at our house and with sitters we knew. Using Rover was something new but I’m glad I did. Brittany was amazing with our pup who at times is very stubborn about what he wants and needs. I was very nervous to leave him but it was the best decision. He had a great time with Brittany and was definitely spoiled by having someone home all the time. He didn’t even want to get up from his afternoon nap to head home. I can definitely recommend Brittany and we will be using her again. She was also very responsive and sent me pictures and messages throughout the day to let me know how he was doing. 5 stars all the way!”
About: Hey, my name is Evan. I am currently a graduate student at UNCG looking to provide high quality care for your pets needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or just chilling out, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I will take the time to follow your instructions closely. I aim to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. While you're away, I'll keep you in the loop with photos and messages. As for experience, I grew up with three cats and have cat-sitting experience, so I am familiar and have a good understanding of their needs. Also, I have a couple years of experience dog-sitting and dog-walking during my undergrad. During the summer, my availability is very open and have plenty of free time throughout the week and weekends. I also will be respectful towards the owners home, so expect the house to be in perfect order. I want to create a familiar and welcoming atmosphere for your pet, as if you never left. I also want you to feel at ease as the pet owners, so anticipate open and honest communication. My goal is to provide dependable care, plenty of attention, and a positive experience for both you and your pet! I am currently a graduate student and working part-time, so I have plenty of time during the day to provide high quality pet care. I live in a safe environment with plenty of space inside for your pet. There is also a big yard right outside my complex, as well as a fenced off area for pets.
“Samantha and Tim are a blessing to our family!! We love dropping off Axel to a place he is loved well! Axel loves his time with them and is happy to see them each time. They send us pictures of his adventures while we are away. Their kids love Axel and that's precious to us since our kids love him as well. Definitely recommend them to friends!”

“We loved having Waldo stay with Irene during our trip abroad. We got updates about how he was doing every single day, she walked him more than we do, and socialized him with other dogs. It was very clear he has loved staying with Irene and we will for sure ask her to take care of him again. Thank you!!”

About: I’ve been around animals for all of my life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I currently have a large friendly Bernedoodle of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger dogs, energetic puppies, daily walks, feeding schedules, and lots of playtime! I also have an animal science and equestrian background, which has given me years of hands-on experience caring for animals and paying close attention to their behavior and individual needs. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I treat every animal as if they were my own and make sure owners receive plenty of updates and photos while they’re away. As a college student, my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week for pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and overnight care depending on the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and will always communicate clearly about my availability so they receive consistent, reliable care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and household rules. I pay close attention to behavior and make sure pets are secure on walks and comfortable in their environment. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing while they’re in my care. I am also Cat and Dog CPR certified in case of emergency!
“Talia and Austin are the kindest people around and our dog is so well taken care of. Our dog has so much fun while she is at their house and returns exhausted which is all that we can ask for!”
“This was my first time boarding my Aussie, and I was honestly a bit nervous — but she did an amazing job reassuring me from the start. She made the whole process feel easy and stress-free, which I really appreciated. I was especially worried because she has three dogs, and my Aussie can get a little overwhelmed. But she handled introductions perfectly — slow, one at a time — and my dog adjusted way better than I expected. Fast forward to pickup time… I think my dog may have forgotten who I am Not only was she completely comfortable, but she had already decided that the husband was her human now (and she normally reserves that level of love for my own husband). At one point, he was petting one of his own dogs, and mine started whining like, “Excuse me?? That’s MY attention.” The jealousy was very real. So overall: ✅ Great communication and reassurance ✅ Thoughtful, safe dog introductions ✅ Happy, well-adjusted pup ❗ Slight risk your dog will try to move in permanently Would absolutely book again — just emotionally preparing myself for the betrayal next time”
About: Hey Hey, My name is Alexis Boat. I am a former student at North Carolina A&T State University studying Animal Science. While as a student, I also worked in an Animal Shelter where I was able to learn about various types of information for both domestic and farm animals. In 2020, I was laid off of my job due to the COVID-19 outbreak and decided to start my own boarding business. I’m addition, Rover has always been a way for me to be around animals and help their parents as they need. I have two big dogs of my own, Brandi, who is a one year old Black Labrador Mix and Bruno, who is a one year old Beagle Australian Shepard Mix. My dogs have blessed my life to no end. They are extremely spoiled and I only make sure that they have THE BEST treatment from everyone. With that being said It is important to me to take care of others’ pets as I would do my own because they are our family! I cannot wait to meet your fur baby and get in contact with you soon! I also am owner of a photography and videography service. Fortunately, I determine my own hours. With that being said, I am open with availability. I allow dogs to have fun, and play with supervision. Allowing dogs to be themselves such as sniffing and roaming (to an extent) allows stress so these dogs are more than free to be their lively selves. and I do own dog crates and they will be crated by OWNERS REQUEST ONLY.
About: I have over four years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, including managing illnesses, administering medications, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. Through this experience, I’ve learned to pay close attention to canine behavior and body language, allowing me to pick up on subtle cues about a dog’s comfort, needs, and emotions. I understand how to respond calmly in emergency situations and how to help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether it’s encouraging a dog to eat, maintaining their routine, or simply providing companionship, I approach every dog with patience, attentiveness, and genuine compassion. I truly see dogs as family members and believe they deserve the same respect, kindness, and care that we give to people. My goal is to make every dog feel loved, secure, and understood while they’re in my care. As a therapist who works from home, I am able to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. My schedule includes regular breaks, allowing me to attend to your dog’s needs, offer potty breaks, playtime, walks, affection, and companionship without long periods of separation. My home has a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as multiple rooms that can be used to give dogs their own space when needed. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family, creating a comfortable, home-like environment rather than a kennel atmosphere. Most importantly, I will be home the entire time your dog is in my care, ensuring they receive attentive supervision, comfort, and companionship throughout their stay.

We are so thankful for the wonderful care they provided to Pluto! The daily updates were especially appreciated and gave us reassurance throughout our trip. They were responsive , flexible, and very accommodating with Plutos's food requirements and our late pick up. Most importantly,Pluto was well cared for. We would definitely trust them with him again.
Darcy is the BEST!!! She took fantastic care of my boys. Gave me daily updates and sent me the cutest pictures! I am so grateful she loved them like her own for the week 🥰 She even sent their bowls back sparkling clean ✨ 10/10 recommend!! I will definitely be using her services again.
Rebecca did a wonderful job taking care of my pomeranian during boarding. She kept up with all of his special care instructions and grooming needs. I can tell she genuinely loves dogs and is very experienced in caring for them. My little guy had the best time staying with Rebecca and her family! Absolutely recommend 🥰

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
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 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.
