“Emlee was very prompt and communicated with me regularly. She did everything that I asked and kept my kitty happy. I’ll definitely contact her every time I’m going out of town!!”
“Bonnie was absolutely great from start to finish. It was my first time away from my fur pal so I was really nervous. After talking to Bonnie I was immediately relieved. She was great with Smokey. I received photos of him daily, short notes letting me know home was safe. This made my vacation well worth it I was really able to relax. I will forever use ROVER AND BONNIE. Thank you so much for a great experience. My flight was also delayed 5 times so I had to rebook and have her come back and she had no issues with this. She even impressed people in the airport with her speedy and attentiveness.”

“Abby was great! She responded to my initial request within 24 hours, stopped by to meet our cat, Oscar, before the actual booking. She was kind and Oscar liked her almost immediately which eased my mind on leaving for a few days.”

“Karina did a wonderful job caring for our senior cat. She was responsible and had good communication, so we felt our cat was in good hands while we were away. She also took the initiative to clean the litter box without my asking, which was very thoughtful. Thank you, Karina!”

About: Hello my name is Erin, I have grown up with a dog my whole life. Starting around 4 years old my family has fostered dogs getting them ready for their future family’s. I have experienced with training and disciplining all kinds of dogs. I also have experience with house sitting while families are on vacation and completing jobs like feedings, medicine, playing, walking and giving baths. I work a part time job about 2-3 times a week. I am very flexible with hours from morning to evening. I am an easy going person so just let me know what works best for you and I will accommodate. I make sure your pets schedule stays the same as close as I can while allowing for many cuddles and lots of play. I can also help care for other things around your home like plants and daily chores.
About: I grew up helping take care of dogs and have been around them for as long as I can remember. I've looked after my own dogs as well as those of friends and family. There’s hardly been a year in my life without a dog in it, and I truly can’t imagine life without one! I currently work full time as a 2nd grade teacher, but I’m available on weekends for boarding, walking, or playing with your dog. During the week I can walk your dog in the late afternoon and evening. I have a fenced in yard and my house is in a neighborhood. I currently have one dog who is a morkipoo and is very playful and loves other dogs. I am able to crate your dog if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for most of my life, whether they were my own or belonged to family and friends. I treat every animal I meet with the respect they all deserve, and love them in the way that’s best for them- whether that is with lots of affection, or appreciating their need for space. I do have some limited experience with seniors. (Helping with a dog who can no longer lift himself up to go outside, keeping an eye on both cats and dogs who are older and need more supervision.) I am not currently employed elsewhere, so my availability is mostly very open. I have my child every other week, and those weeks may be more limited, but I will still try to make sure I help out as much as possible while said child is in school! On the weeks without, I am available starting any time after 6 in the am, until 7/8 in the evening. If you need occasional help outside of those hours, just let me know and I can try to accommodate! I am not currently offering care in my home, but I will treat your pet with respect and kindness every step of the way in yours! I do best when given instructions I can follow to the letter, making sure I am following any and every suggestion or guideline you have. I am more than happy to spoil your fur baby with love, or give them all of the space they may need- whichever is best for their particular needs. I am perfectly comfortable with pet cams, ring doorbells, etc- whatever makes you feel confident that your pets are being treated properly! No request is too small, and I take every single detail seriously when taking care of your animal. As a pet owner, I know how hard it can be to let someone you don’t know take care of them, and I will do whatever I can to ease that for you.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and have had years of experience of learning how to take care of animals. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, playing and giving lots of love to your pets! I understand all needs and will help make them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away! I love being around dogs and will treat every single puppy like they are my own. I currently work a part-time job, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to care for your pets. I have my own dogs and cats that I care for every day, so I am experienced with daily routines such as feeding, walking, playtime, and giving them the attention they need. I would be happy to include your pets in that same loving care and treat them as if they were my own I am available for drop-in visits and can stop by your home to feed, walk, play with, and check on your pets while you’re away. I understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable in their own environment and will make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship during each visit. I am dependable, responsible, and will treat your home and pets with the same care I give my own.

About: I have extensive pet care experience, providing reliable pet-sitting services for dogs, cats, and small animals. I ensure each pet receives proper feeding, exercise, and medication while maintaining a safe environment. I prioritize communication with owners, offering regular updates to keep them informed about their pets’ well-being. My passion for animals drives me to deliver the highest level of care. I am available all week and have a flexible schedule because I work full-time from home. This allows me to provide full-time care, attention, and supervision for your pets throughout the day. I’m able to spend quality time with them, keep them company, follow their routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. We live on 12 acres providing space for your pups to run and be active! We also have a Safe and Cozy home , We can provide toys, crates and anything needed to make them feel at home 💕 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I want every pet to feel like they are in a safe, calm, and loving environment while they are in my care. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new requires trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, care, and supervision while following their normal routine as closely as possible. My goal is to create a comfortable space where pets feel secure, cared for, and treated like family. I always want both pets and owners to feel confident and at ease knowing they are in good hands.

“Kayliegh was on time everyday, left us wonderful pictures and videos of a happy Max. It was GREAT to know our cat was well taken care of during our absence! Would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Our oldest dog has PTSD from a past ER vet visit so he does not do well at the vet office or boarding. He's actually been "banned" from one facility and another won't see him unless he is sedated ?. We decided to go the route of having somebody drop in and see him 2x a day while we were away for 3 days. I carefully selected Kristy as this person based on reviews and I am so happy we went with her! Bromley wasn't stressed when we arrived back home and seemed happy (besides the grudge he's holding for leaving him lol). Kristy also checked on our kitten without us asking her too and sent us SO many pictures and videos of both our pets. She stayed longer than we asked her to at each visit too. HIGHLY recommend Kristy for your pets if you like them to be loved on and spoiled! We cannot thank her enough! ?”

“Emily was an awesome sitter for our elderly special needs standard poodle. And we arrived home after a week away to a spotless house and bedding that had been washed due to our dog’s accident. I recommend her highly!”

About: If you need caring, compassionate, reliable, loving service for your furry sweethearts I am available to make them the center of attention. With me they get a bit of a holiday themselves. My work takes me oceanside for extended periods: so when I’m available to house/pet sit for you, I am devoted to all their needs. Presently I am auntie to several cats and dogs that for more than a decade I have been house/pet sitting. I have also cared for horses, goats, chickens, geese and peacocks. I love learning animal’s individual personalities and ingratiating myself in to their familial pack. In my life I have owned a German Shepherd, a Malinois and a Husky as well as numerous cats. I grew up walking the dog, so I prefer to exercise the canines regularly. Playtime for everyone will include some brushing. I have no problems giving oral medications or injections. And I have cared for sick animals of my own as well as others. My entry in to your home will be with complete respect, integrity and detailed consideration. My references will tell you how I am attentive not only to your pets but your home: be it garden or plant care, and most especially having your home be as if you had never left upon your return.
“Suzanne and Ryan were great! They listened to us and were kind to our dogs even though our little one was scared at first. They showed patience and made us feel very comfortable knowing our little ones would be in their hands.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kernersville
Bella is extremely sweet. I was concerned my giant breed mix rescue (10 months old with a mouthing problem) might be too much of a handful to ask of any sitter, but she stepped in enthusiastically and I have nothing but positives to say. I got multiple photos each visit (Monday-Friday), a fairly detailed rundown (including my dog’s energy levels, training progress, etc.), and Tulip has been in a great mood every evening when I come home from work. This was my first time having a caretaker for a pet, so I was very nervous (especially about my house being a mess) but I gained so much relief from the help and would absolutely recommend Bella to anyone looking for help.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Kernersville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
