“What can I say about Brooke! This is the sitter to choose! She has given me peace of mind while caring for Junie! Brooke sends pics and gives updates! I’m really grateful to have found such a sitter and welcoming family to be with Junie while I’m gone! Thank you again Brooke!”
“Scarlet helped me out with short notice, keeping my 10 month old Bailey overnight. He had a great stay and enjoyed playing in the backyard with another boarder who was there! She kept me updated with texts and pictures!”
“Jamie and her family were phenomenal with my prince. Jamie updated every day and sent me pictures . Jamie made me feel so comfortable with leaving my little buddy. I have now found my doggie sitter for all my future travels that prince can’t go on. He loved being with Jamie he just wagged his tail when I dropped him off . In all pictures he was smiling ❤️ Thank you again Jamie I wish I could give a million stars ☺️☺️”
“From the first few minutes of meeting Alison and Richard, we knew they were loving, caring people who would take great care of our boy. Griffin had an absolute BLAST during his stay! I got updates and pictures every day and felt so at ease. He loves Wrigley and Sunny (the perfect play mates and leaders for him), and so do we! We will continue to ask Alison and Richard to watch Griffin for as long as they let us :) I highly recommend anyone use them if they are looking for a fun, caring, home environment for their dog- and stress free for owners- while they are away.”
“Charles did an excellent job at taking care of our very senior dog. He sent pics every day and updated us to how he was doing, how he was responding to him and his dog, and that he seemed comfortable with his surroundings. I really do appreciate his caring attitude toward Zeus; that gave us peace of mind while we were vacationing. We will definitely ask him to care for Zeus on our next vacation, and I will pass on to my friends that Charles is a wonderful canine caregiver. I appreciate Charles and Rover!”
“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.”
“Anamika was beyond wonderful as she not only cared for our senior sweet dog Winky, but also provided lots of images and updates. Winky also was taken for daily walks and spent time in the backyard along with other dogs. She also played with the kids and enjoyed her comfy sofa. I am very happy with Anamika and will definitely be returning for her services. She also makes homemade chicken stock 🙂”
“Caitlin is just terrific! I can’t say enough good things about her. She takes great care of my dog and goes out of her way to help me time and time again. My dog just adores her.”
“This is the first time I leave my dog with Casey. My dog was very happy to the point that he didn’t wanna leave. That means he was well taken care of. Thank you so much Casey. I will definitely use you next time for my dogsiter.”
“Our experience was amazing. Communication was on spot, she was sending us pictures from our dog in the morning, in the afternoon, and in the evening, and she would keep us posted from her current status, whether she was playing or taking a nap. I would definitely recommend her and I will book with her again in the future.”
“We left our dog with Bri for the first time for 5 days. She was accommodating and sent updates with pictures every day. Our dog did well with her and her dogs and family. I would happily use Bri again.”
“Carolyn was very communicative with me while I was on vacation. I was updated often on my pup and how she was doing. She was very attentive and took great care of Nahla. I was able to enjoy my vacation stress-free.”
About: I have three of my own senior babies that I love with all my heart, and I am looking to spread that love to your babies as well. I have experience with pets of all ages, but caring for seniors is one area where I excel. I am very patient and gentle, and I am very diligent about routines (especially when it comes to medical needs/medications). I currently work from home have the ability to incorporate visits within my daily schedule. I am also free on weekends and can provide extended or multiple visits when needed. I have a fenced in yard at my home, and even when my dogs are outside, I am always watching them to ensure they are safe, which I would also do for your family. If you do not have a fenced in yard, I would be sure to take your loved one outside on a secured leash.
“Teddy and Rumi absolutely love Ms. Karen and her family! She is very flexible, reliable, and truly cares for them as if they were her own. I always feel at ease knowing they are in a safe, loving, and attentive environment. Karen provides updates and makes sure their needs are met, which means so much to me. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate. We are so grateful to have found her!”
“Megan was great with my 2 boys. She sent me updates and pictures. They settled right in. She worked with me and a few things as well. I would highly recommend and ill def be using her again.”
“Our dog Marley is our baby and it's always hard to leave her with a sitter. Ashley was just amazing and kept us updated and sent pictures through the entire stay. Highly recommend her as a dog sitter and will be using her again! Thanks Ashley so much for everything Marley is very happy so I know she enjoyed her time with you.”
“I deeply appreciate Brittany's excellent care of our pup Sox. Sox experiences a lot of separation anxiety, so seeing her completely at ease means a lot! We will definitely book again! ❤️”
“Sandra took amazing care of our two dogs! With one immune compromised pup she made sure he got all of his meds on schedule. We loved the photos and updates. And when our flight was delayed she was very accommodating and pleasant! Will definitely book again the next time we travel. 😊”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hickory Hills
Porter had a wonderful stay with Kellie! From the photos she sent throughout his visit, it was clear he was happy, well-cared for, and having a blast. He got plenty of outdoor time, playtime with a ball, and even made some furry friends. Kellie was communicative and consistent with updates, which made leaving him so much easier. We'll definitely be booking with her again!

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 Hickory Hills 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 Hickory Hills.
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.
You and your Hickory Hills 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.
