“Tokena provided great care for Beans in my absence. She is very dependable and make you feel comfortable leaving your fur baby. She stayed in contact and provided me with pictures that warmed my heart. She is surely added to my list for many more stays.”

“We are so happy that we found Pam. She is amazing with our two dogs, CC and Chewy. She sent us daily photos of them, and we can see they were really enjoying themselves. Her home was perfect for the dogs, they had their own dog door to go in and out of. A very nice sized and secure backyard in a nice neighborhood. Will be using Pam again in the future and the dogs will be so happy to see her again. :)”

“Miss Elaine was a wonderful host! I had to leave my great Dane with her at the last minute and she was so accommodating and took him in and now, he's earned his spot to come back and visit whenever he needs a dog sitter. I would definitely recommend Miss Elaine because she's so easy to work with and she's also amazing with her updates to make sure you're always in the "Know"”


About: I am always working from home and usually available. I take care of my own two elder cats and my newest 2 year old 75 lb ridgeback dog. I’ve taken care of plenty of family and friends pets before too. My dog is trained and gets along with others and I also have a huge fenced in yard filled with toys. I work from home full time which gives me a lot of time to walk, play, and sit all animals. My job is not very demanding but I do have meetings throughout the day. I take safety very seriously. My two cats are dog friendly and they are elderly so they will usually stay clear of any animals besides myself and my husband. My dog is very playful and I do let her outside in my closed fenced yard. I will always supervise play and watch over them as if they were my own.

“Tiffany is absolutely amazing! Ben had a great time and when I picked him up he kept going to her for snuggles and pets. Tiffany went above and beyond with Ben and was so professional. I will definitely try Tiffany first if I ever need hosting for Ben. 5 Star!!”

About: What truly sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience combined with deep instinctual empathy. Having cared for dogs for 17+ years, I am highly attuned to their body language, unique personalities, and emotional needs. I am flexible and can travel to different homes whether is Wake County or Johnston County! Special Skills I Bring to Your Home: Senior & Special Needs Comfort: My extensive experience means I have the deep patience required for aging dogs. I am familiar with maintaining strict medication schedules, managing low-mobility routines, and providing a calm, reassuring presence. Puppy Patience & Routine: I know how crucial consistency is for younger dogs. I will gladly reinforce your house-training rules, basic command structures, and positive behavior techniques. Anxious or Shy Dog Care: Because I understand dog behavior, I know how to give nervous pups their space to adjust, building trust gently at their own pace. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekend routine as a focused part-time commitment. Availability: Friday 5:00 PM – Monday 8:00 AM pickup. Service Options: Dog sitting at your home or overnight boarding at mine. Yard & Safety: Secure, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor exercise and play. Built-in Buddy: I have a calm, friendly medium-sized mixed pup, so your dog will always have gentle company and never feel alone." Boarding at My Home (Friday 5:00 PM – Monday 8:00 AM) Safe Outdoor Play: Dogs enjoy frequent, supervised access to a secure, fully fenced yard for exercise, bathroom breaks, and fresh air. Built-in Companionship: My calm, friendly, medium-sized mixed dog provides gentle company so guest pups never feel lonely. Routine Continuity: I closely follow the owner’s regular feeding schedule, medication needs, and bedtime habits to keep stress low. Cozy Environment: Dogs have free access to comfortable resting areas inside the house, treated just like family members. Client Updates: Owners receive daily photo and text updates so they know their pet is relaxed and having fun. Daytime Care at the Client's Home (Fridays Starting at 5:00 PM & Weekends) Familiar Surroundings: Pets stay in their own comfortable environment, which is ideal for dogs that get anxious away from home. Tailored Attention: Each visit includes scheduled feedings, fresh water refills, potty breaks, neighborhood walks, and interactive play sessions. Home Care & Security: Beyond pet care, visits help keep the home secure by bringing in mail, rotating lights, and keeping everything tidy. Real-Time Check-Ins: I send quick updates and photos after visits to confirm arrival, activities, and departure.
“They were very flexible with my last-minute time changes. Due to transportation issues, I had to change drop off times twice. I love the pictures sent to me while away.”

“Gregorio was wonderful with our mixed German shepherd Evie. He took a great care of her making her comfortable and keeping her clean and safe. We had a great experience leaving her with him. He is a great sitter and we would used his service again if we need to. 10/10! Thank you Gregorio”

“This was the first time Mia, our 14 year old pet, has ever spent the night away from family. I am thankful Mia was happy with her sitter, Michelle. Michelle sent us pictures and we were appreciative of how well Mia under the care of Michelle.”

“I was a little reluctant to leave my pups with Dillon because they aren’t used to being around other dogs but I can’t say enough good things about our experience! He sent lots of pics and videos and had great communication the whole time! He was very flexible and kept great care of my dogs! I will for sure use him again and share with friends and family!!”

“Our dog was right at home. Francisco did a great job communicating and was flexible when our return flight was late. BeBe our 10 Month old pit loved him. I highly recommend Francisco. We will be back next time we need to board BeBe.”

“Our pets' second family. Mitzi and her kids are wonderful with our two dogs and she took the time to send us both photos and videos while we were away which made a huge difference in our being able to enjoy a vacation. Our schnoodle, Tink, takes some time to warm up to people and Mitzi made sure that she was comfortable and waited for her to approach (and coached her son to do the same). They're now part of Tink's circle of trust. Our pomeranian, Tilley, can be a handful - but they embraced her energy and made sure that she also had a safe place when she needed it and followed all of our instructions about feeding them separately as Tilley tends to overeat. Without question - the absolute best people that we have ever found on Rover and you can completely trust your fur babies with them.”

About: I’ve always been a lover of animals. I have my own 2 cats and doggo and they’re my whole world. Before that I had family dogs and cats ever since I was young and they were my favorite thing to see when I came home after a long day. I love to workout with people themselves and animals! It benefits everyone to get up and move throughout the day. Plus dogs should get to experience the world around them too! I’m a stay at home mom, I am expecting our first baby in December. So once the baby is here, I may take a break for a little bit, but I’ll be back! I’m available to walk during typical business hours while my husband is working. I have a two story spacious home with a large fenced in backyard! Our bedroom is on the first floor so even if the dogs are older, they wouldn’t need to go up any stairs. I have a loving dog that will play and run around with them and 2 cats! One is super friendly and will play with them. The other is a little more timid and will most likely just hide.
“Very awesome! Blue is on a raw diet and she was willing to accommodate that. She gave me daily updates, which let me know how he was doing! Will definitely be using again!”

“Aimee was great! Very responsive, proactive with updates (and lots of pictures), and had a variety of activities for our dog to do at her place. She’s certainly our first choice for a local dog sitter going forward.”

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 Micro home-away-from-home, 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 Micro.
<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 Micro 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 , 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 .
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.
