“Buddy, my Westie, was well taken care of while we were gone for 10 days. He seemed as comfortable with Mary as we were when we had the Meet and Greet. Although we missed him we were not worried about his care. Would definitely use Mary again!”
“We needed to find a last-minute dog sitter for 8 , and I was honestly a little stressed. We had never been away from Cece for that long, and it was also her first time staying outside of our home for more than 5 days. After searching, I found Milika, and I immediately felt a sense of peace. She works from home, which was especially important to us because Cece is used to having someone around since I also work from home. Milika was the perfect fit! From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and reassured. She sent updates throughout the day, along with plenty of pictures and videos. I could tell from the photos and videos that Cece became comfortable with her very quickly, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. To make things even more special, we felt terrible that we couldn't be home for Cece's birthday. Milika went above and beyond by capturing special birthday moments with Cece and even taking pictures of her enjoying the gifts we left for her. It truly meant so much to us! We are so grateful for the care, love, and attention Milika gave Cece. We will definitely use her services again, whether for boarding or dog sitting. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their fur baby with genuine care and love!”
“We had the best experience in boarding our Labrador with Anna we could have asked for. Her and her husband with kind, professional, and treated Maizey like part of the family. We received regular updates and didn’t have to worry for one second if she was getting taken care. They made everything so easy and we just enjoyed our vacation. I completely recommend them!”
“I was glad Maple could have fun with new friends and be safe in Hannah’s well-planned environment for doggies while we were away. We got daily updates but we would've been happy to receive more pics/details :)”
“Jessie was the best host for our dog Harlow! She made him feel right at home and sent us updates about his day. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who needs someone to care for their pup!”
About: While we know we can’t commit to having a full-time pet right now, we absolutely love the idea of getting to love on and care for yours. I have experience caring for multiple dogs at once, including puppies and senior dogs, as well as smaller animals and rodents. I grew up in a house full of animals—dogs, cats, hamsters, and pretty much any pet we could convince our parents to let us have! Then adulthood, careers, and kids happened, and somehow I became a “responsible adult” without a house full of pets. 😂 And my kids? They ask almost daily, “Can we have a rabbit? A dog? Hamsters?” So getting to shower your pets with attention would probably make all of us very happy. We work from home, so your pet will have company during the day! We are flexible for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and, of course, lots of attention. We’re a two-parent household with two kids (9 and 5) and, somehow, we’re the only house on the street without a dog! 😂 We have a fenced-in yard, a super pet-friendly neighborhood, and plenty of space to play and hang out. Our home is well-maintained and pet-friendly, with baby gates available to help keep everyone safe and comfortable.
“Jett found his new best friends in this home! We did a meet and greet and they are so warm and welcoming. Their dog Autumn is super friendly also. I had no nervousness about them or their home or pet. Jett felt the same, it was instant comfort. Great communication for a first time stay :) Judy also let me know general details about dogs coming for day care while Jett would be there just for my awareness. Everything went well and they were so kind and flexible when my return flights got delayed!”
“Renee was absolutely perfect with my Monty, which is a commendable feat; he’s a grumpy old man who doesn’t get along with many! She sent the cutest pictures and updates throughout and was so accommodating when my trip didn’t go as planned. Monty also made a new friend in her dog Oreo. Overall, 5 star experience and I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Teresa is great! She is very friendly and accommodating. She helped me load and unload the car, which was a big help since I had my baby with me. My dog seemed comfortable at her house and got lots of cuddles!”
“I hate to send this glowing review because I want to keep Pam’s schedule open just for me!! ? She literally is an answer to prayer. Being newly empty nesters, we’ve been wanting to take several short trips but had no one to keep our 10 year old dog. She’s never been boarded so we didn’t want to go that route. We found Pam through Rover and booked with her because of the rave reviews. And, she was better than any of our expectations. She LOVED on our girl, sent pics and updates every day, and Lexi came home so happy, healthy, and with no separation anxiety. We feel so blessed to have found Pam and her husband Dave was awesome with Lexi as well. Thank you so much!!!”
“Ashley was great - she was so accommodating with a last minute request and kept up with daily updates throughout the stay. Would definitely have Boden stay there again!”
“Cay was terrific with my cat who is shy with strangers and doesn’t particularly like other animals. This was the cat’s first time being away from home so I was a little nervous about how he would adapt. He played, ate well, and was quite calm and content when I picked him up after a week of being with Cay. Also, communications with Cay were very friendly, quick to respond, and included pictures and a video. My cat was allowed to roam around and follow Cay during the day. I highly recommended Cay and will always board my cat with him!”
“Paulette and Chad are AMAZING!!! They not only took amazing care of our dog but they ultimately took good care of us. It started when they gave us the option to bring our dog over to meet their dog. They were so patient and kind. The communication while we were gone was amazing and they were very flexible when our flight was delayed. I could tell our girl felt right at home. Best sitters and just good people. Will absolutely ask them to pet sit again.”

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.
95% of sitters in Hocutts Crossroads 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 Hocutts Crossroads 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 Hocutts Crossroads.
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 Hocutts Crossroads. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 Hocutts Crossroads 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.
