“Janell and family were amazing with my pup! Very accommodating and quick to reply. She always kept us up to date with how she was doing and included cute pictures. Her house has a nice fenced backyard which is great for dogs. My pup is 10 years old with medication and Janell was able to give with treats and no issues. I highly recommend Janell for all your dog care needs.”
“Kathy was great with our 2 dogs. Our dogs were happy and well taken care of. She kept them on their schedules and she sent pictures and updates to us, so we could stay informed. Any time I requested an update Kathy was very prompt. We picked up the same happy and healthy dogs we dropped off. We highly recommend her!!”
“Heaven sent!! Christal (and her sweet kiddos) were a true blessing. My dog landed in the perfect home while we were vacationing. The communication was prompt, from the moment I requested her services (at 4AM), Christal answered and took in my puppy that same afternoon. He was well cared for, seemed happy with his daily walks and play time. I appreciate the photos I would receive throughout the day. I recommend Christal and will definitely reach out to her when I need a pet sitter. Christal: Thank you SO MUCH! Max sends his love to you and your family!”
“Nicholas maintained great communication and provided updatesthroughout the day. It was great speaking with him. He has our trust, 100%. I’d definitely recommend him to a friend.”
About: I had a seventeen year old Labrador retriever and she was the world. So, I have done and seen just about everything when it comes to dogs. I just had cancer and I’m getting back into working and would love to walk (play with/feed/etc.) your dog. Whatever you need! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable care, walks, drop-ins, and quality time for pets throughout the week. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits and enjoy giving animals lots of attention, playtime, and consistency while their owners are away. I live in a safe neighborhood in Plaza Midwood. It is a townhome community that is built for humans who happen to have dogs. Just remember to pack their leash for walks!
About: I have had dogs in my family since birth, and now care for my boy Baxter (lab/golden retriever mix). I love dogs of all shapes and sizes Taking care of animals is my number 1 priority. I have a very flexible schedule to cater to needs throughout the week at any time As a pet owner, I know that the lists of things that are off limit for any animal can be long and often different from one another. I am attentive to any specific needs your animal may have.
“I’m so grateful for! She and her husband were wonderful with our two fur babies. Since it was our first time boarding, we were a bit nervous, but Nancy answered all our questions, met with the pups, and showed us around her home. We also got daily updates with pictures while we were away. I loved it, and so did our pups. I highly recommend Nancy!”
“Monique was awesome! Very responsive and sent regular updates. Our pup had a great time with her and her puppy Behr, hank came home happy and tired! Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Oliver had such a great time. We enjoyed receiving daily updates and photos of our pup having such a great time. Will definitely rebook with Stacey in the future. Glad we found a great and safe place for our little guy while we are out of town.”
“Hata took amazing care of my 3.5yr old pup. She had consistent communication, asked lots of questions, and made sure that my dog felt welcome in her home. My dog got plenty of outdoors time in her yard and I received multiple picture updates of a happy dog. I would definitely recommend Hata’s services.”
“Dayana is so kind. My dog was super comfy w her. She Sends plenty of updates. Great energy from the moment we met at the meet and greet. She was very responsive as my request was very last minute. I will definitely board my dog with her next time I travel!”
“Not only was Anne able to accommodate my extremely late notice request for boarding, but she took great care of my senior dogs! Her home and fenced yard is also set up very thoughtfully for pet care with lots of space to roam outside or inside. Very quick & efficient communication, picture of my dog while I was away, I couldn’t have asked for a better first time experience!”
“We would highly recommend Amanda and her family to other dog owners. They went above and beyond to make our puppy feel at home and cared for. Amanda is also very responsive and kept up updated throughout the stay.”
“Alejandra is wonderful. We've had our large, high-maintenance dog stay with her multiple times now, and she has been so great with him. She sends lots of photos and videos. Thank you for taking such good care of Argo!”
“This was my first time using the Rover app, based on a friend's referral. Because of my experience with Maria, I don't see how it could have gone any better. Maria was sweet and attentive, and she gave updates with notes, pictures, and videos. I could tell from everything I saw and received that our fur baby was loved by her family just as much as we did. I particularly liked that because Maria knew I was on a work trip, she kept updates to a minimum and provided them when requested. So, I didn't have to feel inundated with information while traveling for work. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again. She made this such a pleasant and positive experience for my family and I. Thanks Maria!.”
“We were so thrilled to find someone who also had a Schnauzer and understood their 'quirks'. Our Stella had the best time and never seemed nervous or stressed. Yelena was great to send photos and really cute videos of our babies going for walks and playing together. Thank you so much, Yelena! Especially since this was short notice. You are now our number 1 go to.”
“Crystal was a great sitter and a very nice person. She paid attention to all the particular needs of my dog and followed them. She also provided regular updates. Our dog loved her so much. Any dog would be lucky to have her watching over them. Thank you so much for your service :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Harrisburg
Tyra did an excellent job taking care of my extremely spoiled Frenchie! She treated my dog as if she were her own and made sure she felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for throughout her stay. Tyra provided plenty of updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to know exactly how my dog was doing while I was away. I truly appreciated the care, attention, and communication. I would definitely trust Tyra with my Frenchie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!

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.

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.
