“Kimberly was excellent, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet boarding. She was very friendly and flexible with pickup and drop-off times. Guinness was well cared for and well exercised! I'll definitely use her services again!”

“Mary Catherine was amazing and took such great care of our dog while we were away that we were afraid he wouldn’t want to leave! She kept in touch with pictures so we could rest easy knowing our dog was happy and tuckered out from all of the attention and activity. We highly recommend Mary Catherine.”

“Best peace of mind I could have asked for as an anxious dog mom lol. From the beginning of booking, to the arrival, actual stay, and pickup, Maria was so amazing! She’s so nice, informative, laid back, and I can tell she really cares for animals. I’ll definitely be rebooking in the future! Again, Maria thank you so much!”

“Jazmine, was absolutely wonderful. I was concerned after not having a meet n greet, then leaving my fur babies, which was my fault. Had a lot going on. But once we met Jazmine, it was all love from my babies and myself. We love her, and she connected with my fur babies immediately. They really like/love her too. I had no worries about checking in on them. I was completely satisfied that they were in great care. We will use her again”


“Ash was FABULOUS! Excellent attention to detail, very caring, and patient. Clearly has a deep love of animals and communication was SPOT ON! Spacious and secure backyard for running and playing. Will definitely use again.”

“Amanda was the absolute BEST care giver to my Beagle Beau. We had never left him before with anyone, and Amanda welcomed him in as her own. Her and her family were so welcoming, kind, attentive and they truly understood our need to feel confident and safe leaving Beau with her....she absolutely outdid all expectations. Will definitely be having Beau stay with Amanda again and again.”

“Cora had a great time with Glisel and her family! Glisel sent updates over the busy Thanksgiving weekend and I knew my pup was in good care. She can't wait to come back and play with Bridget.”
“I hesitate to write a review because Chris is a gem and we don’t want him to get too busy so that he’s available when we need him! Haha. We did a meet and greet before our official first visit to get to know each other and the pups! Wonderful personality, enjoy him, his wife, and his sweet pups! Really grateful we found someone who cares about our senior boy and treats him so well. We know he can be a handful due to his age and quirks but very fortunate to find Chris who genuinely cares about his well-being. We know he’s in great hands.”
“Evan and his wife are phenomenal! Not only did they accept my request at the very last minute, but they also kept me updated every day and were very responsive. As someone who is very particular about who my puppy is around, I felt completely at ease with the service they provided. I will definitely use them again!”

“I honestly cannot say enough good about Jackie and her pup Nova. They took such good care of our little Juniper. Jackie is amazing with communication, she sends sweet photo and video updates every day and we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing our dog was in such good hands with a good friend to play with. Daily walks and many hours of play for our pup meant we were bringing home a tired and happy dog. We would go back to Jackie in a heartbeat if we need another dog sitter. Whether you’re looking for an extended sitter or a short stay, you can rest assured they will be well taken care of with her. We can’t thank her enough!”

“This is my second time using Lauren as a pet sitter and she is the absolute best!!! I left my 1-year-old female pup with her over the weekend…as fate would have it, my pup unexpectedly began her cycle for the very first time the day after I dropped her off with Lauren. I truly felt awful about it, but Lauren understood the situation I was in and managed my dog, Dani, better than I could have ever imagined. She treated her with such patience and respect throughout the weekend, and I could have not been more comforted knowing she was in good hands. I also received a lot of valuable information through Lauren on how to continue to manage Dani through her first cycle. I highly recommend Lauren for dog sitting!”

“We had the very best experience with Ana!! Her and her fiancé took such great care of my dog, Mabel. She sent daily photos and videos, which I was so appreciative of. I will definitely go back and would highly recommend!! Thanks so much, Ana!!”

“Jalece took great care of my puppy while I was away on vacation. She sent pictures and video and answered all of my questions with a smile! I will definitely use her service again!”

About: I have experience caring for and training dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I can also administer medications and provide training refreshers as needed.

I have several large walk in kennels for your dog to stay in if needed or free roam capability's, I live in a quiet neighborhood with lots of yard for play.
“Our dog is normally shy around new faces, but Alex quickly won his heart! Her attention to his needs and the level of care she provided for him while we were away left us feeling reassured he was going to be happy, and when we came back, he was almost sad to leave. We'll definitely be booking Alex again next time we travel!”

“We have a somewhat neurotic corgi and both Kristine and her mother Snow were very understanding and patient about her special needs. Kristine was traveling so Snow watched our pup for 3 days and I felt that she genuinely cared for her wellbeing, showed her love and that she was safe while we were away. I would have liked a few more updates, but Snow sent enough that I did know how she was doing and that she was OK.”

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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
