“Tulasi is an absolute delight to have my Tiny girl stay with when o go out of town. She stays in constant contact with me and shares photos of Tiny, which gives me comfort while I’m away. This is my second time trusting.Tiny with Tulasi and it definitely will not be the last!”
“We booked Erica as we were traveling through the area and needed a dog sitter for the weekend. Our boys (two goldens) were well loved and cared for! We loved how much outside and play time Erica gave them. Will book here again when we are in the area!”
“Heather and her family are great! She took great care of my sweet Jojo and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. Heather is very trustworthy and a great communicator. I definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future.”
“Ellie and Karson are wonderful dog sitters. From the start they made me feel, warm, and comfortable. And after meeting my dog Chase, I knew they were the perfect fit for him. They sent daily updates and photos which made me fill even more at ease and relaxed. I will definitely recommend anyone to them. And for sure will use them again in the near future. Thanks Ellie and Karson for taking such good care of my dog and cancelled out all my worries.”
“Brianna was wonderful from start to finish…from our meet up for a meet and greet to when we picked up Ranger today! Brianna sent us updates with pictures and videos and was very responsive during Rangers entire stay! She even kept him longer for us when we had an unfortunate mishap at the end of our vacation. Thank you so much Brianna for caring for our boy - we will definitely be in touch the next time we need a sitter!!”
“The sitters did an amazing job. They communicated regularly with photos to update us on our dogs well being. Our dogs got a little anxious being away for the first time with someone new and one of them stayed out in the living room all night to help them calm down.”
“Benji was treated like part of the family and absolutely loved his time with your family. Thank you so much for taking great care of him, sending updates and allowing us to enjoy our time away. We will definitely be back!”
“I was very happy with the care and attention Tokyo received. The caregiver was very attentive, kind, and responsible. She kept me updated and patiently answered all of my questions, which gave me great peace of mind. You can tell she truly cares about animals and puts a lot of dedication into what she does. I would definitely trust her with Tokyo again. Thank you so much for everything! 🐾❤️”
“So happy to have found Andrea to take care of Vernie for an overnight! She was so kind and understanding of his puppy energy. He is thoroughly exhausted from all the play! Happy to know we have someone we can trust when we head out of town!”
About: As a first responder, I’m very comfortable around K9s and understand the importance of patience, consistency, awareness, and responsible handling around animals. I also have two dogs of my own, Millie, a Vizsla, and Aksel, a German Shepherd. I’ve had Millie her entire life, and Aksel came to us as a rescue about a year ago. When we first brought Aksel home, he needed extra patience, structure, and training, and we’ve worked with him consistently to help him become the happy, well-tempered dog he is today. I genuinely love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, working with them, and helping them learn. I work as a first responder, so my schedule is different from a traditional Monday–Friday schedule. I have set days off that allow me to offer pet care, and I primarily schedule boarding on my days off so I can give your pet plenty of attention and supervision. I also offer dog walking and drop-in visits when my schedule allows. I keep my availability updated and am happy to communicate ahead of time to make sure your pet’s needs fit my schedule. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely get outside for exercise and play. I have two dogs of my own, a Vizsla and a German Shepherd, who are part of my household. Before boarding, I’m happy to discuss your dog’s temperament, comfort level, and how they do around other dogs. I can use indoor movable pet gates/kennels to safely separate dogs when needed, whether for feeding, rest, or simply giving them their own space. I always prioritize safety and will follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding instructions, and any special care needs.
“We love Yana 💛 not only did she watch our pup with special needs, she provided some insight into care for him. Things that have made a difference for him already. So her care goes beyond pet sitting and is greatly appreciated! We felt so at ease with Koda in her care and he came back in such sweet spirits. Grateful to have found a great sitter for our boy!”
“Maribel is incredibly kind and treated our pup like she was her own. And Molly, her basset hound, made fast friends with our dog, who can be a little reactive when meeting new dogs. Maribel is an excellent communicator and sent us pictures and updates which we really appreciated. We look forward to having Maribel and Molly watch our dog again in the future.”
“It was clear from the first moment after meeting Natalie that she absolutely loves all dogs. She was great with our puppy. It was the first time that we had to board our 5 month old Golden Retriever, Lexie but Natalie made this painless for us and Lexie. She sent daily reports and even videos of Lexie so we could see that she was doing great. Lexie even hated to leave her house. I would highly recommend Natalie to anyone who needs to board their dog.”
“Victoria has such a beautiful home. She also is a very warm and kind person. Our dog instantly took to her. We scheduled a sleepover so our dog can get to know her and her dog better before our big trip in a few weeks. It was a great experience. We picked up our dog and she was just so happy. When we left our dog at a kennel before this she did not look well when we picked her up. This was a total different experience, she had a lot of fun and was well taken care of. Victoria was great at sending me updates and a video. I think my dog misses her and her dog lol!!! I'm definitely going to feel better when I leave her for a week knowing she's in good hands. Thank you Victoria”
“I’m so glad we were able to find Amanda. She welcomed my Rottweiler as one of her own when we needed a last minute dog sitter. She communicated greatly the 4 days she had her by texting and sending me videos to ensure me that my big baby was enjoying herself. I definitely recommend her and will be using her for future vacations!!”
“Nina was great! She was very communicative and easy going. Nico seemed to have a great time and definitely got some good exercise! Would definitely let Nina keep Nico again!”
About: My family had two aging beagles I helped care for that eventually passed away. They both required much attention and medication. Any time my family members or friends need someone to watch their dog, they ask me. I have experience working with smaller sized dogs and much bigger dogs. I have also worked at a humane society. I just graduated from grad school so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies and will make sure they are happy and healthy! I will make sure they go to the bathroom regularly, make sure they get plenty of exercise/walks, make sure they are well fed, and make sure they are overall safe and comfortable. It is my job to make sure your fur baby is happy! If using boarding services, my apartment complex is very pet friendly and has a great dog park!

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 Francisco home-away-from-home, 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 Francisco.
<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 Francisco 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 , 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 .
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.
