“Sarah and Erik were amazing. I received several updates with pictures and a video. Kehlani definitely had a fun weekend with her new bestie Rosie, playing chase in the large fenced in back yard. I highly recommend Sarah, Erik and sweet lil baby Gus❤️ I’m happy to know my fur baby will be in good hands when I can’t be home”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Gunner this past weekend and kept me updated with lots of pictures, which I really appreciated! It was so nice knowing he was in great hands while I was away. Gunner had such a great time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I would absolutely recommend Taylor to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their fur babies. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Michael was very easy to schedule with. I am so happy he was available for a last minute trip. I particularly wanted him to watch my pup as he works from home (as I do) which allowed Libbie to feel love and attention at all times. Yes, we all like to spoil our pups!! I have already scheduled my next trip with him as I know she will be well taken care of, exercise is awesome with her own playmate. When I picked her up she was happy and well cared for.”
“10000/10 would recommend Francis for pet sitting. We scheduled her for a week when I was expecting my baby and life happens and I needed a few days earlier. Francis was 100% willing to working with us and accommodate us dropping him of early and being flexible with the pick up time. She sent multiple updates per day and worked with our nervous nelly of a dog to get him comfortable walking the neighborhood.”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”

I love animals so I’m definitely able to give them my full attention and able to play with them and care for them the way it’s needed I also do offer add-on services like baths and basic pet grooming, I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15 from big to little sizes I’ve also had a variety of pets I’ve had dogs, fish, and birds so I can say when it comes to animals I’m pretty experienced and responsible with them over the years I also love animals and hope to be a vet one day so this just isn’t a job it makes me happy to do what I love which is this. When your pets are with me I will treat them with care like their family. I’m young so I’m very able to walk and run and play with your dog as much as possible, i know every dog is different and requires different attention which I’m okay and skilled to handle with I’m currently in school, but I am doing online so I have a lot of free time flexibility and I am available any day throughout any time I live in a loft apartments but my neighbourhood is very pet friendly there’s plenty of space to walk your dogs and for them be, I also have a small dog of my own so your pet will definitely be able to make a little friend.

“Evan and his wife are phenomenal! Not only did they accept my request at the very last minute, but they also kept me updated every day and were very responsive. As someone who is very particular about who my puppy is around, I felt completely at ease with the service they provided. I will definitely use them again!”
“Amanda was the absolute BEST care giver to my Beagle Beau. We had never left him before with anyone, and Amanda welcomed him in as her own. Her and her family were so welcoming, kind, attentive and they truly understood our need to feel confident and safe leaving Beau with her....she absolutely outdid all expectations. Will definitely be having Beau stay with Amanda again and again.”
“I don’t have enough words to thank Gabriel and Sara for taking such great care of my puppy while we were away! They treated Calleri as their own and truly made him feel like part of their family. You could tell they cared about him and followed all of the instructions we gave them, especially regarding his feeding and nap times. They have great communication and sent us lots of pictures, videos and regular updates, which gave us peace of mind to enjoy our trip knowing that Calleri was in great hands. They were also very flexible with the drop-off and pick-up times, which we really appreciated! Their puppy Charlie is the sweetest! He and my puppy got along so well! Charlie is such a friendly, playful and gentle dog and I was so happy that Calleri had a companion to play with all the time while we were away. I’ve tried a few different dog sitters in the Charlotte area before and I have to say that Gabriel and Sara ARE THE BEST! They truly went above and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend them and will be booking again!”

“Nick was awesome. He gave me updates every couple of days with pictures. Ivy looked like she was having a blast, and I could enjoy my out-of-town trip knowing that she was in a good place. I think Ivy wore his dog out. I will use him again for any dog sitting needs!”
“Excellent care. Laura sent me photos and videos of my girl so that I could see that she was happy and healthy. She had so much fun with Laura's dog, too. Highly recommend!”
“We had such a great experience! She took amazing care of both of our dogs and treated them like they were her own. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well loved. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”
“Katie was awesome, she sent pics of our little girl and let us know how she was doing during her stay. Franci has separation anxiety, but she did great during her stay at Katie's. Although she said that her dog Winston and Franci didn't play much, they did enjoy each other's company, they just stared at one another! Thanks Katie!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - High Shoals
Susan and her family took such wonderful care of our greyhound Misu for almost two weeks. This was our first time leaving her with someone outside of family, so we were a little nervous, but they made us feel completely at ease. We also loved receiving daily pictures and videos. Misu came home happy and healthy. Highly recommend!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
96% of sitters in High Shoals 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 High Shoals 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 High Shoals.
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 High Shoals. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 High Shoals 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.
