“Susan and her family love Penny like she’s their dog. When we pulled into the driveway, Penny couldn’t wait to get out of the car to see them again. There is no greater review than your dog joyfully going to their boarder! Susan sends the best pictures and videos to recap the day. Susan has always communicated quickly. She is our go to boarder for our girl.”
“Deborah took wonderful care of our pups! They enjoyed meeting the horses and playing with new friends. Highly recommend and already have them booked for another visit”
“Madison was amazing with our dogs! She loved them as her own and sent us plenty of pictures while we were on our honeymoon. She was a very sweet person to work with and would definitely recommend her to our friends!”
“We are so thankful that we found Kendra to watch Teddy for us right after Christmas. She was amazing with him, quick to respond (both while he was there and before we booked/while planning), sent pictures, and just made us feel okay with leaving our pet with her. Prior to our booking, we were able to go to her house to meet with her, bring Teddy to see the space, and just get a feel for how everything would go. Kendra is extremely organized and amazing with the animals that she boards at her house. We will definitely be keeping in touch and having Teddy stay with her again if needed.”
“I don’t have enough words to thank Gabriel and Sara for taking such great care of my puppy while we were away! They treated Calleri as their own and truly made him feel like part of their family. You could tell they cared about him and followed all of the instructions we gave them, especially regarding his feeding and nap times. They have great communication and sent us lots of pictures, videos and regular updates, which gave us peace of mind to enjoy our trip knowing that Calleri was in great hands. They were also very flexible with the drop-off and pick-up times, which we really appreciated! Their puppy Charlie is the sweetest! He and my puppy got along so well! Charlie is such a friendly, playful and gentle dog and I was so happy that Calleri had a companion to play with all the time while we were away. I’ve tried a few different dog sitters in the Charlotte area before and I have to say that Gabriel and Sara ARE THE BEST! They truly went above and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend them and will be booking again!”
“Lola had a great time! She came back exhausted. Deanna was super responsive, sent pictures, and got our girl eating good which she doesn’t do when she’s in new places. Lola is deaf and she was totally ok with using her hand signals and things! Would definitely book again!”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”
“Brad and his wife took such great care of our Max. I was nearly afraid he wouldn’t want to come back home! 😂 Their little fur babies welcomed him into their home as well! From the first meet & greet I knew this would be a perfect fit! Brad was very communicative and responsive! He sent me regular updates and pictures of our little guy!! We have found our new “go to “Home away from home” for our Max when we are away! Much appreciation to Brad and his wife for giving us peace of mind that our furbaby was in good hands! ❤️🙌🏽”
“Thank you so much Ashley. Once again you provided best care for our pita while we are out of town . We keep working with you again and again . Love from our family to you 🤗”
“Alison and Rick were so great with my sweet Grace and their dogs were wonderful and played with Grace. They adapted quickly with her and I feel so relieved as Grace is such a social dog and needs this kind care, play and love. Thank you from the bottom my heart, Alison and Rick!”
“Alayna is amazing with Queso. Not only a great sitter but took him on several walks and adventures during his stay. Handled his energy and needs very well. Highly recommend Alayna as a sitter”
“Stephanie was amazing! Very flexible on picking up and dropping off. Gives you updates and pics on how your pup is doing. Her space and two dogs gave Amy dog a fun filled adventure! Will definitely be booking again!”
“Jennifer was fantastic with my dog Cody. She sent pictures and videos daily and messages letting me know how he was doing. Cody hasn’t done well in boarding environments. On the way home from Jennifer’s he was calm and content. He also became buddies with her dog Milo. I will certainly be taking Cody back to Jennifer!”
“Kimberly too excellent care of our Scooter while we were away. I was apprehensive about leaving him as this was the first time in 12 years that we have boarded him. Kimberly sent pics often and spoiled him so much! Highly recommend her.”
“Sarah and Erik were amazing. I received several updates with pictures and a video. Kehlani definitely had a fun weekend with her new bestie Rosie, playing chase in the large fenced in back yard. I highly recommend Sarah, Erik and sweet lil baby Gus❤️ I’m happy to know my fur baby will be in good hands when I can’t be home”
“Jessica is phenomenal. She provides daily updates with photo/video. She really cares for your pup, and I have no worries when we are away. Bailey has loved her stay each time!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Light Oak 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 Light Oak.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Light Oak 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.
