“Nikki Grace was spoiled and treated like an absolute queen. This was the perfect set up for her. Larry and Pam were friendly, attentive, and kept us well informed with pictures, videos, and texts updates daily. I recommend them to anyone who wants to know their fur baby is in good hands! I know ours little fur baby will be staying with them again❤️?”
“They were very flexible with my last-minute time changes. Due to transportation issues, I had to change drop off times twice. I love the pictures sent to me while away.”
“Amber is the greatest. I will never have any problem leaving my puppy with her. Matter of fact I think she has a better time over there than she does with me at the house.”
“We used Connie's services once again due to her obvious love and great care of our Zoe girl! She provided updates including pictures and videos that we appreciate so much! It's great to know that our family can depend on Connie to take care of Zoe while we are on vacation.”
“Mrs. Jennifer and her husband were great with my CoCo. They made us feel very comfortable with the decision to leave CoCo in their care. I was impressed with the opportunity to have a meet and greet before the stay. My first experience with Rover didn't have this opportunity and I was hesitant to use Rover again but an emergency situation came up. I'm thankful that I was able to come across Mrs. Jennifer's profile. CoCo was in a safe, clean environment and it showed when they sent pictures and videos and when I picked her up she was very happy. This was not our experience with Rover before. I will definitely recommend them for your boarding needs and I'll definitely be booking again.”

“Emily did an amazing job taking care of my little fur baby. I could see the joy on my pup's face in the photo updates she sent me! I would recommend Emily to anyone. 10 out of 10!”
“Our girl Luna has never done well while we were away she always got anxious when we left but this was the first time she had an absolute ball! We had no issues coming home and she just went right back into normal life. It’s like our girl fit right into her family!! We are so thankful!!!”
“Joselyn took great care of my high-energy puppy! My pup clearly felt right at home and loved playing with Joselyn's chihuahua, and Joselyn kept us up-to-date with pictures. Definitely recommend!”
“We forgot to write a review for Makayla! She was really a God send. We had to leave Maxwell for almost a month with her. We were concerned because of the length of time away and also never using this type of service before. Maxwell loved Makayla so much that we thought she’d have to keep him!?(jk), my daughter wouldn’t have approved? But, I would recommend her to anyone. She will spoil your pet and take great care of him/her as well! I would definitely call Makayla again if ever the need arise. And, she sent pictures as well, which helped to come my daughter’s anxiety! Thank you so much Makayla !”

“Aspen is amazing! She watched my two pups for me again for a week and I knew going away for a week my boys were in good hands.

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.
97% of sitters in Hobbton 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 Hobbton 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 Hobbton.
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 Hobbton. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Hobbton 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.
