“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my 2-month-old puppy, Stella! She treated her like her own—giving her so much love, care, and attention. She sent me updates three times a day (with the sweetest photos and notes), kept me completely at ease while I was away, and even surprised Stella with a new toy. I could tell she genuinely cared for her and went above and beyond. I’m so thankful for the peace of mind she gave me, and I’d trust her with Stella anytime!”
“Lindy was fantastic! She helped me when I was in a pinch and was always quick to respond. She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay and clearly has lots of experience with dogs. I know Kucik was taken great care of; I will go back to her anytime I need a dog sitter in the future!”
“We were very thankful Mary was available to watch Odin and Oakley! We had a great meet and greet and we felt our pups would be in great hands! They enjoyed their stay with much outdoor play and we knew they would be well cared for. Thank you!”
“Cooper and Chase had a very good second stay with Nathan and Courtney. They were giving a lot of attention and spent time in the fenced backyard. A much better alternative to a kennel. We were sent pictures every day to keep up with how our boys were doing.”
“My pups, one elderly and one young and rambunctious spent 9 nights while I was in Europe. My babies are treated like family, lots of pics and updates. I never have to worry when they stay with Lucia and Rob.”
About: My husband and I have been fostering dogs since February 2023. Sadly (or happily, rather), several of those fosters became foster fails. We went from having 1 dog and 2 cats to 4 dogs and 4 cats…but we wouldn’t have it any other way :) Our 4 cats are all extremely friendly and loving. Charlie is 6, Harley is 3, and Sweet Potato and Clementine just turned 1. Every single one of our dogs is a rescue. Molly is 9 months, Banjo is 7 months, Mia is 10-12 years, and Georgie is 8-10 years. Molly & Banjo were rescued with Paws of the Pines Rescue based in Southern Pines, NC. Mia & Georgie are a sister duo that we found dumped in the woods, and are the best senior pups we’ve ever encountered. My husband and I care deeply for all animals and do this because we love it, not for the money. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you’re in need of care. We will do what we can to serve you! I (Megan) wake up at 4:30 daily to let the dogs out, walk them, and feed them breakfast. I leave for work at 6. Jacob then wakes up and cares for the dogs until he leaves for work at 7. The dogs are crated until we come home. After work they engage in another walk, training, puzzles, you name it, and are highly active until bedtime around 9. The cats have an automatic feeder and water fountain. They love lounging around in the living room if the dogs are calm. All 4 cats are friendly and curious. Harley hangs around outside most of the day and the orange brothers are in and out as they please. Charlie is mostly indoors with the occasional peek at the outside world. Pets that enter my home will remain in the main living area with the puppies. The cats in my home are free to roam through the whole house. Dogs will need to be crate trained and okay other pets. I will accommodate their meals according to the owners’ requests. We are an active family, so walks are common!
“Kaitlin was quick to respond to a last minute request and very easy to communicate with. Beautiful high fenced property with tons of room for the dogs to run and play. She was understanding of special needs and my dogs personality quirks. Will use her services again and would recommend for others!”
“Tania was very friendly and caring with our pet. She’s patient attentive and provides an overall safe nurturing home environment. I will definitely continue to use her services and highly recommend her.”
“Jacki was terrific! I was looking for a quiet home for Lucy, our now deaf 16 yo Lab, where her routines could be maintained. -seemed like a perfect fit. Daily updates and quick responses from Jacki. Twice daily walks…at least. Would definitely call on Jacki again if we should ever have need…”
“Sam was awesome and treated my baby girl as if she were her own! photos were sent of the fun time that was had while we were also having a great time! We will most definitely be contacting her again for our next planned vacation!”
“Amber was an amazing sitter for my Sam. Right off the bat I could tell she loves animals, and her dog Hank was the sweetest boy. I received so many pictures of them playing, snuggling and enjoying life. I love that my dog was allowed everywhere hers was (furniture, etc.) She took them to the dog park and on walks frequently. Her condo is in a safe neighborhood and is secure. Amber is very personable and I am thankful I found such a great person to watch Sam while I am away. I will definitely be using her often! Highly recommend her services. Thanks Amber and Hank!”
“Niki is a fabulous sitter and I highly recommend her! She sends daily updates (with photos) and is on top of any questions you might have. As an experienced dog trainer, she is beyond valuable when it comes to needing a nervous dog to be watched. I have one of those and she was so patient with him that he decided to let her pet him which is incredibly rare. I absolutely plan to book with Niki again in the future.”
“Ashley took amazing care of our two dogs while we were away for a week. They came home very happy and tired! She even made sure they were freshly bathed before picking them up. I couldn’t be happier!! I will definitely use her services again!”
About: I’ve been caring for and watching animals of all ages for most of my life. Everything from dogs and cats to pigs and chickens. I’ve never met a pet I didn’t love! I work a fully-time remote job, so I’m always home. I’m available any day of the week and am happy to make accommodations whenever needed! My back yard is fully fenced and a little over half an acre. There is plenty of room to sniff and explore. I also live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks.
“Mae was a wonderful dog sitter!! Our older dog loved her time with Mae. She was professional, sent lots of pictures, and adjusted to the silly schedule we ended up having that weekend. Overall, a very wonderuful weekend.”
“Michelle was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Peaches. From the moment we arrived, she and her family seemed to connect with Peaches immediately. I was initially apprehensive about leaving her in a home with other dogs, but any concerns quickly disappeared when Peaches started playing with her new friends before we could even leave. Throughout the stay, Michelle provided daily photos and kept us updated on Peaches's eating habits and potty activities, which gave us great peace of mind. Peaches also enjoyed plenty of exercise, including daily walks on the nearby trails. It's clear that Michelle genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like part of the family. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be using her again in the future!”
About: My name is Taylor, I was born and raised in Colorado so we love to go on walks and be outside. I personally own 2 dogs right now so I’ve been caring for them for a while. Raised them both since they were puppies. I can take your dog for walks, play with them, give them all the cuddles they need while you are away. I can also bathe them, I am certified to groom dogs and cats. I love being around animals and will care for yours like they are my own. You will be able to trust me with your pets. I promise to clean up after your pets on walks and keep your neighborhood clean. Taking care of your pets will be my pleasure. Thank you for considering me to care for your pets. I currently am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for animals and meet all their daily needs. They’ll be loved and appreciated. I have a fenced yard here at my own home, but I also know pets are more comfortable in their own space so I’m willing to watch them at my own home or yours.

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.
99% of sitters in Marston 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 Marston 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 Marston.
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 Marston. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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 Marston 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.
