“Ross and Sarah were absolutely amazing! I am blown away with how much time and care they put in to caring for my sweet special boy. They were so understanding of his quirks and they communicated clearly on how he was doing and what they were doing to help him be happy and comfortable. They sent many pictures and videos daily so I can see just how happy and how much fun he was having. Their patience, adaptability, and knowledge was everything to make me feel comfortable knowing my boy was in good hands. I couldn't give higher praise and will be happy to recommend them and ask them to watch my dog again in the future.”
“I’m so glad I found Starla on Rover to care for Tootsie while I took a 12-day trip. She was great at sending photos and giving me a daily update. There was never any doubt that my dog was getting the best care and so much love and attention.”
“Taylor is amazing! She took such a good care of Canelo while I was at work, her dog Rêve played with him all day. It was wonderful to come home and have him tired out and happy.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Scott, Ellen and all their kiddos! They took amazing care of Juniper, sent daily updates and pictures, and truly treated her like their own. The kids became Juniper’s best friends and were so kind and loving. We’re incredibly grateful for the care they gave her! We will definitely ask them to watch her again!”
“This was the first time we left our dog with Stephanie and Matthew and it was for a 5-night stay, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Because we were away, we were naturally a bit nervous, but they made us feel completely at ease. From the very beginning, the environment was incredibly warm, welcoming, clean and spacious, giving our dog plenty of room to feel right at home. It was clear from the daily updates that Ollie was receiving top-notch care and exercise every single day. We loved getting the pictures and comments daily—it truly brightened our trip and showed us just how well cared for and happy our dog was. We will absolutely be booking again. Thank you for treating Ollie like family!”
“We all know how stressful leaving your dog is when you go on vacation,there is no reason to worry anymore we found the perfect dog sittersLisa and Chris.They are the best Charley loves them, made sure Charley got along with the other dogs and we know Charley looks forward to his next vacation”
“Ashley made sure our dog felt comfortable right away. Throughout the stay, she sent us lots of wonderful photos, and it was clear our dog was truly happy. She cares for dogs with so much love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“Amy & John took such good care of our two dogs, boarding them for nearly a week while we traveled. I was so appreciative and relieved they would consider us, as our young dog, River, is always curious and has a pretty strong prey drive. I wondered if he would be suited to life on their farm. Our other guy, Colton, is 15 and has significant arthritis. These two could not have more different needs at this point. Amy and John have a beautiful farm, two special rescued dogs, Bruno & Pork Chop, cattle, chickens, even emu. This would be a new experience for both our guys! Generally we spend a great deal of time with them off leash walking our family farms, but this would be a new property and boundaries without fencing. At our meet and greet it was clear Amy and John are special people. We admired them right away! They are very experienced, and were aptly methodical about the introduction of all the dogs and their other farm animals. Their confidence that this could work for all parties involved was reassuring. Amy and John went above and beyond, very kind to take our dogs a day earlier than planned with short notice, and welcomed our daughter, also new to them, who transported the dogs for us. They were excellent at communicating, sending us updates, pictures, and videos, even though we’d told them this was not necessary, as keeping up with River, his energy and curiosities, we knew could be a full time job in and of itself. But it gave us great peace of mind hearing early on that all was going well and there were no issues. Because of Amy & John’s care, patience, and diligence, after a full day with them we received the following, “..Bruno and River have become fast friends, running circles and playing hide and seek in the woods like wild things! We’re not using the leashes at all as we walk in the woods. River’s been absolutely perfect about coming back when we call him.” And I got the biggest kick out of, “I just got back from a walk with all four dogs, Pork Chop and Colton waddling behind me and River and Bruno having a blast playing chase.” Along with a picture Amy sent of River with his head poking through from behind her knees (as crazy as it sounds), something he humors only us with here at home, we KNEW both our guys felt comfortable, were happy and very much cared for. I could not imagine a more perfect scenario for our dogs. Now back at home, we can definitely sense they are missing Amy, John, Bruno, Pork Chop, and daily life on their farm. I’d love to arrange a play date to help with this, and I KNOW precisely what River and Colton’s reactions will be once we approach their farm. It’s clear this is a family that loves animals and cares so much for the well-being of all they have rescued and assumed responsibility for. They are kind, exceptional, hard-working individuals, and we feel so fortunate to have met them and to have our dogs cared for by them. This is who we will turn to any time we need care and boarding for our dogs!”
“Grace was extremely prompt and accommodating when I made a very last minute request that my almost 1 year old Golden Retriever stay for the weekend. She sent pictures and I could tell when I picked him up that he was right at home with her dogs. Her home and fenced in yard were very nice and clean. I will definitely rebook.”
“Geraly was on point with my fur baby. She sent pictures, followed every direction with my baby, and drop-off and pick-up were both smooth. I would definitely use her again. I have one happy pupper!”
“Holly was amazing! She arranged a meet and greet prior to my booking with her and she sent pictures often while I was away. I knew that my dog was well taken care of and that he enjoyed his time there! I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“We honestly can’t say enough good things about our dog sitter! She took such wonderful care of Katana and Gizmo, and we are so grateful for the love and attention she gave them. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our babies were in such caring hands while we were away. We loved receiving updates and knowing they were happy, comfortable, and being spoiled with attention. Leaving your fur babies with someone else isn’t always easy, but she made it so much easier. We truly appreciate everything she did for Katana and Gizmo and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets like her own! ❤️”
About: As it usually goes, growing up my family always owned dogs, from German Shepherds to Chihuahua mixes. I follow up my personal experience with 6 years of professional experience working at various dog boarding/daycare facilities and veterinary hospitals. Before moving to North Carolina, I lived in Iowa where 3 years ago I was given the opportunity to a apprenticeship at Fowl Water Outdoors, afterwards I was then given the opportunity to a job training at Lakota Creek Kennels. Since moving to NC I had been able to fill the role of assistant trainer at Spence Canine Academy in Oak Ridge, NC. Along with my background, I am pet CPR/first aid certified and able to provide a background check along with several references. I have four of my own pets. Zeus, a 6 year old German Shepherd who I have dabbled in fast CAT and AKC scent work with. Zeppy, a 1 year old Belgian Malinois I am training in the bite sport of PSA with. LaRue, a 6 month old Standard Poodle who has big shoes to fill as a hunting companion. And Maly, my 1 year old Siamese cat. Previously I owned a Dutch Shepherd who I trained in the bite sport of PSA with as well, I am certainly partial to the Shepherds. In my teen years I owned a few rabbits, a couple Mini Lops, an English Angora, and would love the opportunity to care for rabbits again! Big or small, dogs to bunnies, they are loved all the same and I look forward to taking care of your beloved pets! Currently my schedule is wide open for dog walking, adventure walks, and drop-in visits from 7am-9pm Monday through Friday, as well as boarding! I have a 2 bedroom townhome without a fenced yard so dogs are required to be leashed. However we will still get plenty of exercise in through play, walks, and on leash hikes! Having a spare bedroom allows me to easily accommodate pets who may not get along with others, or simply enjoy having their own private, calm, and quiet space.
“Rebecca took amazing care of Boomer!! Great communication and she sent pictures and videos throughout of walks and play time. She has a large fenced in backyard that is perfect. She went the extra mile of helping him eat when he was initially a little nervous. We will definitely book with Rebecca again and really appreciate the great care!!”
About: Since the age of 10, I have cared for many animals, whether it be my own dog or a neighbors. I have experience with dogs, cats, and rabbits and I am not opposed to caring for another animal! Since entering college, I have been dog-sitting for many families and I am comfortable with staying at houses. I am currently at college and have classes throughout the week. I am also a college athlete so I have training at varying times of the day. However, I will be able to stop by and check on your pet before and after, not leaving them alone for too long! When caring for pets at a client’s home, I prioritize safety by following any specific instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding and walking routines as well as medication if needed. I never leave a pet unattended outside unless it is in a fully fenced area.
“Judy did a wonderful job taking care of our sweet mini schnauzer. She is trustworthy and gives plenty of updates with pictures. Ever since we moved to this area, we have had a hard time finding someone who we can completely trust to keep our baby while we are gone, but Judy checks off all of our boxes! Judy should be your go to ESPECIALLY if you have a schnauzer. Our baby came home happy and tired. Thank you for everything Judy!”

We love being able to rely on Joaquin. He kept us updated twice a day on how Daniel was doing and let me know what progress he made during this stay. It's just nice to know my baby is happy and taken care of. Peace of mind is everything. Thanks for another wonderful stay, Joaquin!
Joaquin was an amazing host and sitter for my pup! He offered a detailed boarding checklist, walked me through Kylo’s schedule as a guest and offered several updates throughout his stay including texts, photos and videos. I will definitely request Joaquin’s boarding services in the future 😊😊.

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.
94% of sitters in McLeansville 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 McLeansville 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 McLeansville.
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 McLeansville. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 McLeansville 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.
