About: I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats for over 16 years, and I treat every pet like family. I’m experienced with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I understand how important it is to provide them with patience, love, attention, and a safe environment. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply some companionship while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. 🐾❤️ I currently work part time running my own business and I choose when I want to work, so it gives me more time with our pets and children. I have a fenced yard, and we are looking at adding a play area for the dogs to enjoy their time outside. The fenced portion is about 1/2 of an acre.
“Vania was awesome! She accepted my booking last minute was very accommodating and her communication was awesome! I can tell she really loves dogs and did everything to make mine feel comfortable. I will be booking again !”
“I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Armonee. My dogs first time with a boarder and she could not have made things easier for him and me. Her communication is top tier with regular texts, photos and concerns. She is caring, gentle and tailors her approach to fit the animals needs, like she did with my special needs senior dog. She treats pets like they are her own and it is obvious from the moment you meet her. I trusted her completely and will be rebooking with her in the future. Highly, highly recommend if you are looking for a safe and loving place for your pet. My dog came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for.”
“She was fantastic! It was so nice knowing someone was caring for our dogs the way we would if we were home. Very communicative and loved receiving pictures of our dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Great areas for the dogs! Went above and beyond with the care and comfort of my guys! I have some wild dogs and they had a great time! Not having to worry about them while we are out of town is great!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and experience I bring to every pet I care for. I have over 12 years of pet-care experience and am a pet parent myself to three Chihuahuas, including a senior dog. Because of this, I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that senior pets can need. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I’m happy to accommodate each pet’s individual routine and personality. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet, relaxed environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I stay home full-time. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s normal routine, including meals, potty breaks, walks, medications, and plenty of love and cuddles. 🐾❤️ Because I’m home most of the day, your pet can have someone nearby rather than being left alone for long periods. I truly enjoy having animals around and love making them feel comfortable, safe, and at home while their families are away. I care for every pet based on their individual needs and the routine their family has established. In my home, pets are treated like family and receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, meals, and lots of love. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, and basic medication care when needed. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, schedule, and specific needs before their family leaves. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️

“Jamie was absolutely fantastic! This was our first time using Rover and Jamie made it an absolutely great experience. Luna was absolutely worn out and had to catch a nap when she got home. Jamie and her family are wonderful people. After meeting with them the first time we knew that Luna would be in great hands. She sent pics and daily updates without us having to ask at all! We definitely will be using Jamie in the future and we highly recommended to anyone else looking for a dog sitter.”

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 Gates 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 Gates.
<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 Gates 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.
