About: I have multi-dog household experience. There has always been at least two dogs in my house growing up, they’re my favorite animals. I have a chocolate Labrador named Whiskey, and a Schnoodle named Max. My chihuahua sadly passed away. I love to meet and have other dogs in my house. I’m comfortable administering oral medication if needed. I’ll send daily photo updates. I’m a stay at home mom so there’s always time to care and play with our furry kids. I wake up between 6-8am and go to bed by 10pm. When I need to leave the house to run errands, I don’t take longer than 3 hours at a time, so I make sure my pets are taken outside for potty and water breaks. There is a fenced area in the back of our house, and a big open area. I can take them out on a leash if needed or crate them if they’re not house trained.
“Judging from our dog's demeanor before and after her stay (and the photos), Dottie felt very comfortable staying with Hunter. -- like staying with a known relative. I would highly recommend Hunter to watch anyone's pet. - Michael”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always enjoyed being around all kinds of pets- from cats and dogs to farm animals. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I’ve dreamed of having the opportunity to spend more time with them. My husband and I moved to Wilmington about 10 years ago, and for much of that time, life kept us so busy that having a pet of our own didn’t feel fair. Since I haven’t had pets of my own during this time, I’ve happily gotten my animal fix by pet sitting for friends and caring for their cats and dogs whenever they’ve needed someone they trust. I work away from home (Registered Nurse since 2016) just one day a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets the attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and love they deserve. I have a fenced in yard, a nice neighborhood for walks and no other pets to care for. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own.
“Valerie is amazing! We needed a sitter pretty last-minute for a 2 week trip and I am so glad we found her. She was super quick to reply to our inquiry, we had a meet & greet the next day and she was so good with our boy while we were gone. Our travel got a bit wonky so we ended up getting home 2 days later than anticipated, and she was great about keeping him an extra night and even brought him to our house for us. We got plenty of photos and videos, and he was clearly well-loved while we were away. I cannot recommend her enough!”

“Roxy had a wonderful time with Debra and her sister. They were amazed at how Roxy can literally get under the covers and cover herself up with no help!! ? I was sent a few pictures, next time I would like to see more pictures of her playing outside. Thank you for taking such great care of my fur baby. We hope to be able to have Roxy sleep over her Auntie Debra’s house again, in the future.”

About: I have more than 30 years of dog experience. I’ve trained numerous breeds and types from scent based to mobility. I was a vet tech for several years and I love dogs and kids! I have the ability to keep dogs separate and also understand and know how to properly introduce dogs to one another. I will provide a very clean and safe environment with 24/7 care! I have a fenced in yard and our pool is secure. I have a quiet neighborhood to walk dogs in and am able to provide lots of love and care!
“Harley thoroughly enjoyed staying with Rebecca in her home. Rebecca took great care of Harley with companionship, walks, playing and feedings this past weekend. We would definitely ask Rebecca to watch Harley again. Thank your Rebecca - you're the best!!”

“Phenomenal experience! Sharon is the best! Bella loved staying with her and her family and was perfectly willing to stay longer when we picked her up! Sharon is now our “go to” home for Bella when we travel! Thanks!”

About: I’m a firefighter so my schedule is pretty limited. But it allows me to be able to board pets up to 3 nights continuously or pet sit during the day. I grew up around cats and dogs all my life! If I had a schedule that allowed me to be home every night I would have some of my own! I work a modified schedule of having 24 on and off and 96 off which is when I can board pets. Otherwise would be daily visits or walks depending on what you’d need Plenty of walking time and there is a dog park within a 2 minute walk (if you would want your dog to socialize with other dogs). I have a dog friendly apartment that is dog proofed

“We couldn’t be happier with Matthew. From the start, he was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. He took the time to understand our pet’s routine and personality, sent regular updates, and treated our pet like his own. It made our time away completely stress-free. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dependable and loving sitter!”

About: I always had a dog growing up so I am very familiar with dogs and the care they require. In high school I got my own puppy who I raised and trained by myself. In addition to this I have my own cat so I have experience with both cats and dogs. I’m home for the summer and have full availability! I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I have plenty of time to give pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I would like to care for each pet exactly as instructed by the client to ensure the pet is comfortable. If allowed by the client, I enjoy taking pets outdoors for walks, exercise, and fresh air whenever appropriate
About: Hi! I'm Kaitlyn, and I've spent the past 10 years caring for pets of all ages-from playful puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats who need a little extra patience and gentle attention.

Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
