“We feel incredibly lucky to have found Ashley & PJ. From the very beginning, they were thoughtful, communicative, and genuinely caring toward Cooper. During uncertain winter road conditions, they were proactive, reassuring, and put safety first without hesitation. Cooper was clearly loved and comfortable, so much so that he came home already hinting at another visit! 😊 It means everything to know your dog is not just looked after, but truly cared for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone kind, dependable, and wonderful with dogs.”
“Stephanie was great! She is so friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. She communicated often with great pictures of our fur baby! I would absolutely recommend trusting her with your pup.”
“Cathy took fantastic care of my dog. I was given consistent updates, lots of adorable photos, and she communicated so promptly. I could tell that she treated my dog like he was her own and that helped me to not worry at all during his stay. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy person to watch their dog!”
“Alison was great! I was nervous using a new sitter but she immediately put me at ease. Daily updates and Oliver was living his best life at Alisons house. We will 100% use Alison again and we are so appreciative of the love Oliver received.”
“Rosie LOVED her stay with Carol. We received lots of pictures and updates. Carol was so kind and caring!! Rosie loved exploring her giant backyard. It was like a doggy vacation.”
“Emily and Will had the perfect setup for our Aussie — a house with two friendly pups and a spacious fenced-in yard. We appreciated that they keep their Rover pups to a maximum of two, so our girl got plenty of attention! They were also very communicative throughout the stay and sent plenty of cute pics. Also, also just really kind, friendly people! We’d definitely book them again.”
“Kerri was fantastic! She promptly responds to messages and accommodated all my requests, such as sending pictures of the dogs playing, providing daily updates and bathing him before pick up. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with Kerri. She treats my dog as if he was one of her own, and I highly recommend her and would use her again.”

About: A Home Away From Home for Your Pup! Dogs have always been part of my family, and I love creating a comfortable, relaxed home-away-from-home experience for them. My 6-year-old Boston Terrier, Coco, is my constant sidekick and the daughter I never had! She can use a furry friend and takes a few minutes to warm up. I'd love to welcome your pup into my home for a stay filled with love, attention, playtime and plenty of couch cuddles. I intentionally keep my boarding small and personal, typically hosting just 1–2 guest dogs at a time so each pup gets plenty of individual attention. Your dog will be treated like part of the family—not just another boarding guest. Small, family-style boarding — just 1–2 guest dogs at a time Fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks Lots of love, attention & companionship Daily photo & video updates so you can see how your pup is doing Comfortable home environment with plenty of attention and downtime Meet & greet before the first stay to make sure everyone is comfortable Whether you're headed out for a weekend getaway or a longer trip, I'd love to give your pup a safe, happy place to call home while you're away. Come meet Coco and me—I'd love to meet your furry family member! Open to meet & greets to acclimate and see if we are a good fit ! I currently work Full-Time in and out of my home as a Realtor® so I have lots of flexibility to walk and love on the pups throughout my days. Our Boston Terrier even loves to ride in the car with me. So when the wether permits, she joins me as I travel around the Triangle providing home tours and knowledge to my clients. I have a nice fenced in yard and 2 crates, if needed. I can crate your pup as needed or he/she can roam about with Coco on the 1st floor. We can even crate your pup for sleeping at night, like we do Coco.
“My five month old puppy stayed over the holidays with Amy. His first boarding and I was nervous. Amy met Neville and me at a nearby spot and we all agreed she was a perfect match. My little guy came back happy as could be after a week of play with her bigger dogs. Amy sent photos daily which is definitely appreciated… now I won’t be afraid of leaving him again.”
“I truly cannot put into words how amazing Evie and Fritz are as dog sitters. My dog, Bean, absolutely adores them, which was very evident from all the photos they sent of her cuddling with them and playing with them and the other pups at their house. I’m so happy I found them and will be bringing Bean here any time I need a sitter. Thank you, Evie and Fritz!!”
“Karla was an excellent host for my dog Goose! She was very responsive and provided pictures and videos each day she watched him. She was also very flexible when I unexpectedly had to ask for another day of hosting. Overall very satisfied!”
“Sharon kept us updated on how Eunice was doing which we really appreciated. Since we are new pet owners, we also find her very helpful and also offered us suggestion like training. Will use her service again in the future.”

I recommend Kerri highly! She took great care of my little labradoodle. The resident animals are inquisitive and well socialized. Pepper had a great stay and came home happy & unstressed. We will definitely go back! Communication was awesome. We got a good progress report every day and cute pictures of Pepper.

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 Haywood 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 Haywood.
<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 Haywood 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.
