“Ana is amazing!!! We had a previous bad experience and were nervous leaving our Bella again. Ana took all of our worries away! She kept me informed, sent photos and made sure Bella was comfortable in her home. She is already booked for our next trip!”
“Kelli was able to accommodate a last minute request to watch Caezar. She sent pictures and updates through the day. He seemed to have a great time and was tired out by end of day, he slept so well! I would recommend her and will use her again.”
“Left my dog with them for a week while out of state and they were great!!! They sent many pictures and videos of him having a great time with the other dogs. At one point his food wasn't agreeing with him, and they went out of their way to get his usual for him. Will definitely be booking with them again if needed in the future. :)”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing caring for my dog, Kane, for six nights! I’m so grateful she was able to help me on such short notice. She was super attentive and sent daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’m delighted with the care she provided and so glad she was Kane’s pet sitter. I will definitely rebook her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter. A 10 out of 10! Thank you, Taylor! ❤️🐾”
“Communication: 5 stars due to the owner almost immediately responding to my texts/emails. Additionally, photos with updates of my dog's time at their facility were provided daily. Appearance: 5 stars due to the overall cleanliness of the grounds and the safety measures for the animals on the grounds. Completely fenced in and private. A huge area for the animals to exercise including a pond. Value: 5 stars because my dog was well cared for, happy and healthy when I picked her up. My dog is extremely important to me and the owners valued how much it means to care for her. I think the cost was reasonable especially for the level of care my dog received. On a personal note, I'd bring my dog back to this facility and will do so for our next "dogless vacation". I have never experienced such professionalism from any pet care I've used before.”
“I have booked with Ana multiple times. At this point, my dog truly feels like a family member🤣 Thanks again Ana! I truly appreciate you keeping my dog safe which gave me a peace of mind💛”
“Mikayla took care of my girl Precious for 2 days. Precious has had 2 other sitters in the past and they both moved to another state. I was concerned about Precious going from one sitter to another, but Mikayla made me feel comfortable. Precious had a blast. She was so worn out by the time she got home that she slept for most of the day and 1/2 of the next day. I am delighted and pleased with Mikayla as a person and sitter. She sent me a few updates and pictures,also. We decided that Mikayla will be Precious permanent sitter, God willing. I'm comfortable and relaxed with Mikayla. Precious took to her right away. I couldn't be more pleased with this connection.”
“It’s hard to find someone to trust our furbabies with. They’ll be missed as they move on to a new chapter in their lives. Excellent care and communication every time we have used Ashley!”
“Natalie was so great with Remi! She kept me updated regularly with pictures and took him out on multiple adventures. We’ll definitely be booking with Natalie again in the future!”
“Niki is very caring and great to work with. Our transactions were smooth from the meet up, to drop off and all the way through pick up. She really cares for dogs. Niki sent pictures to us while we were away, telling us how our dog was adjusting. If she’d accept Copper again, we’d be happy to use her as a dog sitter again.”
“Waddell has watched my baby multiple times and I have never had any issues. He is always communicative and sends updates. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter! I KNOW my baby can be a handful but Waddell has never complained!”
“Ashlynn & co. are simply brilliant. They are: - proactive - well organized & super tidy - courteous & professional - willing to work with a client, within reason, and - parent(s) of their own fine brood of furbabies.🐶🐾🥰 I highly recommend Ashlynn’s services.👍🏾👍🏾”
“We always trust Alex with our dog, Gigi. She’s fantastic! Gigi loves her time with Alex, and we’re always updated with cute photos and messages. Highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!”
About: Since childhood I've had animals. I profoundly love dogs and cats. I have volunteered at rescues and shelters in the past. I currently work for a local veterinary clinic. I'm committed to providing safe, excellent care for your furbabies! I currently have a full time job at a local veterinary clinic, however, I have flexibility in my schedule and don't work weekends. I'm available typically on same day basis. I have a modest home with a outdoor kennel, and indoor crates for safe, clean boarding for animals large or small! Plenty of love and attention given so they will not feel alone.

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 Elrod 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 Elrod.
<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 Elrod 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.
