“My husband and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Teresa. We did an initial meet and greet and knew her and her family would take good care of Onyx. Teresa kept us updated with texts and pictures throughout the stay. She took the time to ask questions to learn what Onyx liked and didn't like, and what his normal routine was. We would recommend Teresa and use her services again in the furture. We're so glad Onyx was able to stay with her loving family who showed him the same attention he receives at home.”
“Amber and family were amazing sitters for Vesta. Vesta came back happy and amber sent many pictures to show the wonderful time she was having. They have a huge property and vesta loves being outside so our dog had the time of her life. I felt completely comfortable knowing that she was in good hands. Would highly recommend alAmber to watch your dog and I look forward to booking with them again.”
“Miyu is excellent! I highly recommend. She's kind and consistently expressed care and attention to my dog. I know my dog was well cared for and we look forward to booking her in the future.”
“Titan had a fantastic time with Teri! I was so nervous to leave my old, quirky pup when I left the country but that fear quickly went away when I met Teri and throughout Titan’s stay. He loved her backyard and all the attention he got and was very comfortable there and will definitely be a repeat visitor when I need a doggy sitter!”
“I could not possibly have chosen a better sitter for my dog! Ariel is so kind and caring and my dog was immediately at ease, even though she usually panics when I leave her. Absolutely would recommend :)”
“Amanda was amazing!! Her family gave our dog Ozzy such loving care and knowing he was in greats hands helped us to enjoy our time away from him. He had a blast! A very special thanks to her daughter who gave Ozzy extra special attention. I'd highly recommend Amanda for your pet care needs.”
About: I work from home, which gives me plenty of time to hang out with your fur baby. I can do obedience training if requested, and all the treats I have are homemade with good ingredients and love:) I have a golden retriever myself. I take her out for potty at 6 in the morning, followed by food time and a longer walk around the neighborhood. While I work at home, I take my dog out to play every 1-2 hours. Five in the afternoon is our dog’s second meal. Then depending on the weather, I take my dog out for a long walk in the evening. I treat my clients’ pets as mine! I never leave pets unsupervised in the back yard, and since I work from home, I always keep an eye on the dog during the day. Treats are homemade with good ingredients and love, but make sure you let me know any allergies your fur babies have.
“Abby took excellent care of my 2 dogs. They came home happy and well fed. We would absolutely recommend Abby's help with your pets and will be asking her to help us again in the future. Thanks so much for such great care!”
“Our pitbull, Molly, had a wonderful stay at Mario and Sharee’s country home. It was so beautiful that I wanted to stay too! There was so much room for Molly to run around and enjoy the outdoors daily. They were so attentive to Molly as she had some stomach issues initially and they stayed in touch daily. Molly adjusted nicely and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the care and love she received. This is our new rover home that I will always reach out to first. Thank you!!❤️🐶”
“Nicolette boarded my 2 year old dog, Clover, for a night and it was a great stay! Nicolette was easy to get in touch with and sent lots of pictures during her stay. Clover loved playing with Denali, Nicolette’s dog and came home super tired (which is a plus!) I definitely recommend booking with Nicolette!”
About: I have grown up around all kinds of dogs all of my life. Dogs who are scared of everyone, love everyone they all hold a special place in my heart. I have always wanted to do this ! I am a stay at home mom with two dogs of my own, so I really have a very open Monday-Friday Schedule and I am open to discussing weekends! I will treat them just like they are mine, and mine are spoiled to a core. All dogs are special and deserve to know they are loved.

About: My name is Addison, and I’m someone who genuinely loves animals and takes caring for them seriously. I’ve always believed that they are family too, and when someone trusts me with their pet, I want them to feel completely comfortable knowing their animal is safe, loved, and being well taken care of. I have 3 dogs of my own, and they are all different ages and have their own personalities. Which has taught me a lot about being patient, responsible, and paying attention to what each animal needs. As someone who gets how hectic life is, I’m willing to lift a hand ready to learn their routines, boundaries, and quirks. I’m comfortable caring for young puppies as early as 9 weeks old all the way to senior pets since I understand puppies can need extra patience, extra supervision, and potty breaks while senior pets may need a slower pace, or more specific care. I’m also completely comfortable with medications, dietary accommodations, food restrictions, special feeding schedules, and other specific care instructions. I understand how important it is to follow instructions carefully, especially when it involves a pet’s health or mental state. Most importantly, I don’t want a pet to feel like they’re simply being “watched” while their owner is away. I want them to feel like they have someone with them who cares about them. Whether that means playing with my personal pets or at the dog park, giving some extra attention, sticking to a routine, giving medication, or just sitting beside a nervous pet until they feel comfortable. You can trust I’m willing to put in the effort. In which, I know I’m young, but I take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s animal very seriously. I have 3 of my own who I don’t even play about but If you trust me with your pet, I will same patience, respect, attention, and love that I would want someone to give my own dogs. If anything they may come back spoiled, we shall see I work part time so I’m pretty flexible with working for you and the pups. You can leave with a clear mind and I’m open to letting them come join the party with me or I can come to let them potty, eat, play or practice some training. When pets are with me I treat them as my own so just like mine they would eat on a schedule along with potty breaks, I like to keep pets very active and comfortable by keeping them on a schedule I have a fenced in yard with 3 other dogs who do bark but don’t bite. My dogs aren’t exactly people pleasers at first they have anxiety but they are pretty good with meeting new pets. I always like to keep the option of starting them off in separate rooms to learn one another’s smells and sounds. Trust I have plenty of baby gates and plenty of rooms everyone will have their own space even if I had 10 at once

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.

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.
93% of sitters in Five Forks 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 Five Forks 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 Five Forks.
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 Five Forks. On Rover:

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 Five Forks 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.
