“Katrin was AMAZING! My husband and I are so anxious leaving our dogs and katrin put our minds at ease immediately. From the moment we arrived, the dogs were clearly comfortable and in great hands. She shared regular updates and pictures, administered our senior dog’s medication, and went the extra mile in every possible way to make sure our pups felt right at home. We’re so grateful for her animal loving heart!”
“Our pup had a great stay! We felt so comfortable with him being there, was obviously a loving home. Grateful for the help while we had to travel for a short trip. He came back to us so happy with the attention he got! Highly recommend ☺️”
“Joe and Hitoko took care of our Lady Lou for more than a week, and she had the best time with them. I’m so thankful! My girl is usually very nervous and slow to warm up to people—sometimes she even gets stressed at home with us. But Joe made her feel safe, loved, and cared for. As an overprotective dog mom, getting regular updates, photos, and videos was such a comfort. It honestly felt like a family member was looking after her. They’re the best pet sitters—thank you so much!”
“Erin did a wonderful job watching Islay while we were out of town! I appreciated regular updates and Islay seemed very happy and well taken care of. Erin was also flexible and helpful when our flights got delayed! We would definitely book with Erin again in the future.”
“Jodie was awesome with Andrei. He seemed right at home immediately and loved the nice spacious fenced in yard. Jodie was very attentive, made sure she knew what my dog's routine was and what he needed while he was there. Best Rover sitter!”
“Isa was wonderful! She took excellent care of our dog, took her on long nature walks, and provided a nice fenced yard for her. We will absolutely return to her if we need another sitter!”
“Sre took amazing care of our dog who has a lot of anxiety. She was so caring and attentive to his needs, spent so much time walking, playing, and loving on him. She was organized and responsive with the [very last-minute!] booking process and kept us updated throughout our pup’s stay with her. 100% recommend her!”
“First time Rover user and Vanessa was really flexible, which I appreciated. We did a test run for doggy day care for our 2 pups. Went well and the puppies wanted to stay longer! Would def drop our doggies off again.”
“Bruna was great with Tucker! Before drop off, she was very informative and made sure he was set to go. As soon as I dropped him off, she was excited to see him and took good care of him right away. You can certainly tell her love for animals. She sent pictures and Tucker got to play all day with her dog. Definitely recommend!”
“So glad we found a comfortable option for boarding our dogs. It’s so nice to have them in a family environment with other friendly dogs to play with. Mary was very easy to communicate with and sent us pictures while we were on our trip.”
“Truly have nothing but incredible things to say about Sonia, she has such a natural way with dogs and clearly shows them so much love. My dog is somewhat fussy but she managed him with grace and when he came home it was as if he had come back from a relaxing week at the spa. Thank you Sonia, Curley can't wait to see you again!”
“Camila and Lino were great to work with! They are friendly and responsive. They sent pictures almost everyday our dog was with them. We will easily work with them again and recommend them to others!”
“Lauren was absolutely what we needed for a weekend boarding. She has a great fenced in yard with plenty of interesting things for the dogs to sniff around and sent multiple photos a day, which was a real treat!”
“My puppy had so much fun with Greg and Julie! They treated him so well while I was away for a week and sent pictures and updates. I will definitely check with them again if I need someone.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Heather Glen
Miyu has been amazing with Marley 🐶! She always keeps me updated and sends lots of pictures, which I really appreciate. She’s very kind, helpful, and caring, and I can tell Marley is treated really well while staying with her. I feel comfortable leaving Marley in her care and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter 🩷
Tracy is always our first choice to watch our pups when we go out of town! She’s reliable, communicative, and quick to respond. She keeps us up to date on the pups without spamming us either and knows just what to do whenever anything comes up. Plus the dogs just love snuggling with her!
Amber and family were amazing sitters for Vesta. Vesta came back happy and amber sent many pictures to show the wonderful time she was having. They have a huge property and vesta loves being outside so our dog had the time of her life. I felt completely comfortable knowing that she was in good hands. Would highly recommend alAmber to watch your dog and I look forward to booking with them again.
Teresa and Jim were incredible! They took such great care of our puppy Willow. This was our first time leaving Willow with sitters and they calmed all our nerves the second we met them. They kept us updated with pictures and info on how Willow was doing the entire weekend while we were away. It was also awesome to know that Teresa and Jim only take 1 dog at a time so you know your dog is getting all the attention and care it needs. I will 100% be reaching back out to Teresa and Jim in the future.
Randy has been wonderful with Maya and provides exceptional care for her special needs. Because Maya has a disability and can't use her back legs, she requires bladder expression, physical therapy, and extra attention. Randy handles all of her care with compassion and patience. He even takes her out for walks in a stroller so she can enjoy getting outside, and he always sends photos and updates, which gives me great peace of mind. I highly recommend Randy to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter, especially for pets with special needs.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
94% of sitters in Heather Glen can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Heather Glen home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Heather Glen.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Heather Glen. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Heather Glen 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
