“So grateful for the care this family provided for my sweet Penny! Not only did they navigate the winter weather, they accommodated me needing to have Penny stay an extra day. They sent lots of photos and their precious son gave my dog lots of lovins! I hope to be able to have Penny stay again. :)”

“I have left my little pup with Jose and Maria several times over the last year or so. They really treat her as part of their family and she gets so excited when we pull up to their house. Their daily pictures and videos are so reassuring that all is well. I highly recommend them!!”

“Samantha cared for our fur grandbaby as if she were her own. Zuzu was completely at home and enjoyed her stay. The farm experience is perfect for our dog because Zu is curious and likes adventures and making new friends. Samantha is kind and very knowledgeable about animals. We had no worries while traveling and leaving Zuzu with Samantha.”

“I’d give Vicky 10 stars if I could. Lucy loved her time with Vicky and I felt at ease knowing she was being well loved. Vicky sent us multiple videos of Lucy, which made our time apart much more comforting. Many thanks to you, Vicky”

“Sarah watched our dog for two nights while we stayed at the Grove Park Inn. This was a great option since the hotel pet fee was $350! Thank you, Sarah, for caring for our pup!”

“Terri has watched my pup a few times now and it's been great each time! The most recent time was for a whole week. I was concerned about finding someone who could handle a wild and not-yet fully trained puppy and Terri has been so sweet, gracious and relaxed about everything. She even sent me photo/video so I could see how Zelda was doing. I love the farm atmosphere that Terri provides. She's clearly a true animal lover and Zelda seems to enjoy spending time visiting with both the human and animal friends she's made at Terri's. So glad we found someone capable, trustworthy and kind!”

“This was our second 4 day stay with Lorna and she was amazing. She takes such good care of my sweet baby. She sends lots of pictures. Great fenced backyard. Will be using her again for sure!!!!”


“Pisco had a wonderful time with Alexis. Long walks, regular attention, and a nice place to relax. We appreciated her regular stream of photos. Highly recommend Alexis. We'll use her again.”

“Brody was an excellent choice for Pepper! We needed to keep her calm and limit her movement due to medical restrictions and we felt she was extremely safe in Brody’s care. He went above and beyond to ensure she was safe and comfortable and I would 100% bring any of my pets back to him in the future!!”

“Bella seemed to really enjoy her stay with Kali! My fiancé and I really appreciated Kali’s responsiveness and willingness to work with our schedules. She even sent us a picture showing Bella settled in bed which we greatly adored. Thanks Kali!”

“We’ve now been using Rose for nearly a year and a half, and we continue to be so grateful to her for the care she gives our dogs! They come home clean, happy, and loved! We also appreciate her communication. She’s quick to get back with us and shares photos and updates while we are away, making our time more enjoyable because we aren’t worried about our pets. She has a great setup at her home that gives the dogs plenty of time outside. Highly recommend!!”


“This was JoJo’s first boarding experience. He seemed to have had a great time playing with the other dogs. Kristen took the time to send messages and photos of JoJo enjoying himself while we were gone. We will definitely use Kristen again.”

“Hope and her family are animal lovers and it shows. They were flexible about drop off and pickup times and weren't offended when I asked for a meet and greet before leaving our dog.”

“Jeff and Shirley are the BEST!!! They are an incredibly awesome couple whose love for animals is very obvious and sincere. They took such tender loving care of our “babies” (Tilly, Bella, and Sophia) while we were out of state and sent us daily pictures and updates of them. It was a joy and a relief to see how well cared and happy they were in their new home. We especially loved the pictures of how our “babies” would snuggle up to them when they were sitting on the couch watching TV or drinking coffee. We admit we were bit apprehensive about leaving our “babies” with strangers, but we couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful experience. We definitely plan on using Jeff and Shirley whenever we leave town in future and hope other people reading this review will do the same. You won’t regret leaving your “babies” with them. Your “babies” will love Uncle Jeff and Aunt Shirley as much as our “babies" do. Jeff and Shirley – You Rock!!!!!”
“Joseph and Andrea are excellent pet sitters. They boarded my 10# terrier for a long weekend and he had a wonderful time! Joseph sent lots of pictures every day. Joseph and Andrea are very well set up to board pets with a big house and pleasant fenced yard. I highly recommend them and will send my little guy over to their place for our next out of town trip.”

“My baby was in very good hands with Jessica and John (Jack). Thanks for taking such good care of Zeus on his first away from home stay. I really enjoyed the pictures and videos and know you spoiled him a lot. He went around our house this morning sniffing everything, glad he was home. But I know he will be in very good hands if we ever have to leave him home again. Thanks again J and J. We appreciate you!”

“Kathleen was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Remy! From the moment we connected, she was attentive, patient, caring, and kind. She kept in touch with us daily, sending sweet updates and adorable pictures that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Remy was happy, healthy, and in loving hands. Kathleen went above and beyond by meeting me at a convenient halfway point between our homes, making the entire process so easy and stress-free. She was a delight to work with—professional, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. We will absolutely be using her again, without question. Highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 250 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hot Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Hot Springs sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Hot Springs landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hot Springs 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 Hot Springs.
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 Hot Springs 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.
