“I cannot begin to say enough about the care which Lacie provided for our Emma. She is a 16 year-old Havanese and has issues such as being blind and deaf. She also has some severe arthritis. Lacie took excellent care of her needs, took her outside multitudes daily to enjoy the sun and provided us with daily photos of how well she got along.Lacie provided excellent care and Emma and seem to be so happy. I know it was a lot of extra work because of her special needs, but Lacey was fantastic. I highly recommend Lacie!!!”
“Michelle is the best host in the area. She is loving, attentive, send a bunch a photos and updates and takes really good care of my dogs. Her space is perfect for them: it's spacious with a fenced backyard. They even came back smelling really well after ten days with her, as shen cleaned them with baby wipes. And she gifted them with special doggie home made cookies. Michelle really loves dogs and I am very comfortable leaving my loved ones with her.”
“Carlina was amazing with our Sugar while we went on vacation. She provided lots of pictures and videos which was very heart warming and appreciated. Her communication is the best. Would recommend over and over again.”
“Diane took care of our Seamus while on vacation for a week and she did an amazing job! She sent several photos of him throughout the week which was nice to see him happy. He looked healthier when we picked him up then when we left which was probably due to the many walks they went on. We will definitely be booking her again the next time we need our fur baby watched!”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our energetic puppy with Laura! She sent us updates regularly and gave feedback on how our dog was doing each day. Her home is very welcoming and she is clearly a lover of all dogs. Our dog was very happy when we picked her up and was well taken care of. We will definitely be using Laura again.”
About: As a devoted dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your beloved pets. My own dog, Jack, is a big, lovable shepherd mix, so I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and dogs with big personalities! I believe every dog deserves patience, affection, attention, and plenty of opportunities to sniff, explore, and enjoy life. I understand the importance of maintaining familiar routines, whether that means regular walks, mealtimes, playtime, or simply providing companionship and reassurance while their people are away. I’m mature, responsible, attentive to detail, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’ll treat your pets with the same kindness, respect, and affection I give my own, and I’ll happily keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility to accommodate pet care throughout the week. As a dog mom myself, daily walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection are already part of my routine! I enjoy spending time outdoors and would love to make caring for your pets part of my day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’m attentive to individual personalities, routines, and special instructions, and I believe in creating a calm, loving environment. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your established routines, and make sure your furry family members receive plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re in good hands!
“We only had our senior foster to adopt pup for a week and found ourselves scrambling to find a pet sitter in the last minute. Fortunately, I stumbled on Rover and miraculously found Ryan. Ryan had us visit before booking to make sure everything would be a good fit. My daughter and I fell in love with Ryan, her animals, and her home. Buddy(dog) immediately took to Ryan and spent most of the time snuggling next to her. Since we only had Buddy for a week, we all knew there may be some behavior issues that surface. Ryan stayed in direct communication with me, letting me know how he was doing and giving me pointers on how to handle some of his behavior issues. I highly recommend Ryan!!!!”
“Jennie and her sweet daughter did such a terrific job making our little Dixie and us comfortable on our first night away. She enjoyed playing with their dog and all the attention. Wonderful experience and I look forward to boarding her again!”
“We were worried about our Great Dane as it was her first stay away from us, but Jeremy & Katie sent us updates and she had a blast! We will definitely be back!”
“Keily went above and beyond or expectations! We received daily check ins with pictures and videos. The environment she provided was excellent for our high energy dog with several walks and activities to meet the demand or dog needed. It felt like our pup was on her own vacation and apart of her family. We are so happy to have found Keily and will be utilizing her services in the future. 10/10 recommended.”
“Fiona was the most relaxed she has ever been on pick up from a sitter so I know she was well taken care of . Terri was very prompt in answering messages . If we are ever in Asheville again I sure know who to request if we need a sitter . I highly recommend Terri .”
“Vicky was such a caring sitter for our sweet dog, Max… She kept us informed with videos and texts and pictures while we were gone. Gave us such peace of mind knowing he was so well taken care of. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again when we are back in that area.💕”
“Rick went above and beyond to make sure our weird, skittish (and lovable!) dog got settled in and comfortable while we were away. He took Gizmo out of the house for hikes, which really made him happy. Couldn’t recommend him more to take great care of your pups.”
“I would definitely leave my pup with Ashley again, in fact, I'm so glad I have someone I can count on to take care of my dog when needed. Asha was a bit reluctant to be in a new space with new people (as she always is), but Ashley went above and beyond to help Asha feel safe and comfortable. Thank you, Ashley!”
“Christie was great to work with regarding drop off and pick up as my schedule kept changing. She then sent me photos of my sweet dog while I was away. I would recommend her!”
“Madelyne was welcoming and great with communication. I especially appreciated her updates the weekend. She has a great yard for the pups to play. Would definitely use her services again!”

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.
95% of sitters in Indian Cove 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 Indian Cove 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 Indian Cove.
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 Indian Cove. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Indian Cove 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.
