“Larissa and her family were amazing with Denver and Blu! They always looked so happy in the pictures and videos she would send and I love that she has a dog of her own that is super friendly! Already booked with her again! (:”
“Ms. KenLynn is AMAZING!!!! After taking my babies to multiple kennel companies in Jacksonville, and they coming back shaking, and distraught, I decided to give Rover a try in hopes that I can find someone to properly take care of my babies. Ms. KenLynn kept my mind at ease, after dropping off my fur babies for the first time, as she would periodically send me pics and messages while I was away.. The real deal came, when I came back to pick them up. They weren’t running for the door, they were not shaking, they were not anxious or trying to jump on me in hopes to be picked up and rescued. Instead, looked happy, refreshed, and as if they had second thoughts to even come back home, LOL. How refreshing and wonderful to know your pups are receiving the proper care and you can go away with no uneasiness or care in the world, knowing that your babies are left in the best hands. I have used many, very popular, kennel places here in Jacksonville, and there is no one like Ms. KenLynn! The TLC she gave my pups and making them feel safe and loved is worth anything in this world. Ms. KenLynn will always be my go-to when I need my babies to be cared for. Thank you Rover and thank you Ms. Lynn- there is no price you can ever pay when your babies are left in the care and hands of the best care taker ever! Saki and Caiyo say hello, and that they miss you and love you and can’t wait to see you again! ?? ❤️”
“If I could give Danielle and her husband 10 stars I would. Our dog hurt his leg two days before we were to leave on a eight day cruise and she took great care of him, giving him his medicine and making sure he didn’t jump, go down/up stairs or play too hard which anyone knows is hard in itself with a dog. She offered to take him to the vet if he got worse and kept us updated every day. They are amazing honestly and we definitely will be using her going forward. If you are looking for a groomer she has her own grooming business as well called Hugz-N-Kisses Pet Spa definitely check her out!!!”
“Abigail and her family have been amazing with my 2 girls! She is super communicative and made sure she knew everything about the girls before the start date. The girls always come home happy and tired, and Abigail always sends pictures of all the fun they have. Highly recommend!”
“Jazmine was beyond amazing in caring for our dog and cat! She was very flexible with our ever changing dates. She provided a loving environment for our dog and home check ins for our cat. She sent lots of picture and video updates. We will definitely be booking with her in the future and highly recommend her for anyone looking for pet care!!”
“Aanchal was amazing with Pistol! Pistol is afraid of everything, and Aanchal made her feel right at home. Pistol even warmed up to her husband and let him do belly rubs. I highly recommend her to anyone. She sent lots of pictures and videos. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve had experience handling, training and caring for dogs of any breed, fifteen plus years. Just recently moved from Washington where I volunteered and donated to Summit Assistance Dogs. My experience with puppies has come from the association above. Though I know how to administer meds and exercise through personal experience with my own kids (dogs). I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, attending part-time college. My schedule is open Monday-Friday, due to weekends for my children’s games. Have plenty of time for fur babies. I have a fenced backyard, behind us I have a walking path to the forest. Plenty of space to get zoomies and games of fetch or catch. My family (older children) offers plenty of playtime and cuddles!
“Samantha is a wonderful dog sitter!! Knox is always so excited when we pull up to her house and she loves Samantha, her family and their dogs. She keeps me updated every day with pics and videos. We are very grateful to have found such an amazing sitter for Knox!!”
“10/10 service! Alexander took fantastic care of my dog, Charlee! He kept me updated daily with photos and notes, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Charlee was well-cared for, happy, and in great hands. I highly recommend Alexander and would definitely book him again!”
“We were gone for about one week and Jessica was the best pet sitter! She sent multiple photos or videos a day & made our anxious pup feel right at home. Also her dog Gunner is so sweet and playful. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a caring and pet-loving sitter!”
“This was my 1st time using Rover. It was good working w/ Kristin and her husband, Alex. They communicated well and sent pictures and video while my dog was there. My dog seemed content! I would definitely use them again! Thank you, Kristin & Alex.”
About: Experienced with dogs and cats of all ages, I provide reliable, loving care, handle special needs, and keep pets comfortable while keeping owners updated and reassured. My contract job just ended so I have a lot of time available to care for your pups and kitties. I love getting out and walking.

With kitties I will happily utilize the enrichment toys you have.
“My cat Pumpkin feels very comfortable (sometimes too comfortable lol!!!) at Daniel's place. I have no worry about her well-being while I am on vacation. This is my second time that I boarded my cat with Daniel and I highly recommend Daniel. 🐕🐈🐾”

Lannette was easy to work with and flexible with drop off when I ran into a delay. Communication was excellent, and she sent daily updates with a photo. Desiree was well-loved and taken care of, and we look forward to trusting Lanette and her famiky with our girl next time we need a sitter!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
95% of sitters in Richlands 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 Richlands 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 Richlands.
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 Richlands. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Richlands 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.
