“Elizabeth was so sweet and attentive with Magnum! He had an amazing time at her house, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Although this is the first Taylor’s sitting Kiki, I can tell Kiki was happy and comfortable at Taylor’s house and played along with Taylor’s dog, a golden retriever. Taylor’s daily photo and sms update of Kiki’s activities gave my wife and me a peace of mind. We are happy and thankful for Taylor’s care of Kiki. We will definitely ask Taylor for help again when needed.”
“Evelin was amazing with our pup. She provided us with photos through out the week, reassuring us that our Pup was behaving and enjoying herself. Plus Evelin was very accommodating and loving to our dog (Alice). Thanks again Evelin for welcoming Alice and taking great care of her.”
“Lindsey and Timothy were excellent with my bulldog. My dog had so much fun with their family. I was always updated and given photos and videos throughout his stay. I was quickly responded to with any questions or concerns. I definitely will be using them again and I know that my dog will be excited to see them again.”
“I appreciated Andrea’s rates and communication. The boys appeared to have a great time and got along with their pets. She was also able to accommodate an extension when travel plans changed.”
“Ashley was wonderful from start to finish — from our first chat to the meet & greet and throughout Millie’s stay. She’s incredibly responsive, accommodating, and just so easy to work with. The whole experience felt seamless and completely stress-free. During Millie’s stay, Ashley sent regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Millie was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. I trust Ashley with Millie so much that I’ve already booked another stay with her! I’m so grateful we found her and would happily & highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and dependable sitter.”
“Jackie was so amazing!! She sent so many photos of our pups and even brushed them, gave them a bath and sent them home with some treats and bandanas. She was very communicative and flexible when our travel plans changed. We will 100% be booking with her again!!”
“Kordula took excellent care of my dog. She was very communicative throughout the stay, regularly sending pictures and updates, which gave us great peace of mind. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about our dog. I highly recommend Kordula and would definitely book with her again!”
“My wife and I were very nervous to have someone watch our pups while we were on our trip, and I am so happy that I found Stephanie. Stephanie was great! She gave us updates everyday with photos, and the dogs were comfortable with her family. Would definitely recommend!”
“Christopher and Christina were wonderful to watch my dog Max for a full week. I had such peace of mind and received regular updates and photos of Max during that time. Can not recommend them enough!”
“Maria is wonderful. She was able to take Cleo in with very short notice and took great care of her. She sent me messages and pictures to show that Cleo was very happy staying with her. I highly recommend her and she will be my first choice for dog sitting in the future.”
“We had an initial meet n greet the week before and they seemed to click with the house! They were kind of chill when I picked them up which was unusual but really cool. I was sent pics of them lounging on the couch, so cute. Thanks to Kristen, Paula, Bentley the moyan and to the cute teeny bopper (sorry I forgot your name hon but I'm old now so please forgive.) I feel like my pups had their best first experience with some lovely pet sitters. Best regards, Diane”
“Christina was wonderful! She was easy to communicate with and flexible with my schedule needs. I felt totally comfortable leaving my fur babies with her. I’d definitely use her again.”
“Alison took fantastic care of our dog while we were gone for 10 days. She sent pictures daily, gave an awesome first impression during our meet and greet, has a great space for animals, and seems to genuinely care for your pup. We will definitely be booking Alison again!”
“Ernesto is amazing. I came across Ernesto on Rover after my previously booked sitter canceled less than 48 hours from my family vacation. I thought for sure I would have to cancel my trip but Ernesto saved the day. He was more than happy to take care of my husky and pitbull on a holiday at the last minute. It’s easy to see that he has a passion for animals and that he has tons of experience caring for and training dogs. He kept me updated throughout my trip and even gave me some dog training tips. I definitely recommend and plan to use him in the future.”

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 Colon 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 Colon.
<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 Colon 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.
