“Sarah took great care of our golden retriever, Phoenix, while we took a brief vacation. He fit in well with her dog, and we got many great pictures from Sarah to update us while we were away. We were super comfortable with our dog's stay even though we had never left him with anyone before. I heartily recommend Sarah for you and your dog.”
“Lorri watched Albus for a two week period while we traveled this October. She sent pictures and updates daily and it was so great to see Albus doing so well. She literally does more with Albus than we do...taking him along almost everywhere she goes (even to buy a new car!!!). They are best buds and we never worry at all when Albus stays with her.”
“Our girls had a fantastic time with Jennifer and her pups! Jennifer sent photos and updates every day, putting my mind at ease while we were out of town. The girls loved spending time with Jennifer’s pups, and they got to go on lots of walks and adventures! I’m so grateful for the wonderful care they were provided :)”
“Lucy was fantastic with Koda! He's a high-energy adolescent shepherd mix, so I'm always grateful when I find someone who really understands dogs and is thoughtful about introductions, play, and group dynamics. She sent updates and videos throughout the weekend, which I appreciated so much, and it was clear that Koda was having an absolute blast. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. As a dog sitter myself, I can be a little picky about who I leave my dog with, and I would not hesitate to book with Lucy again. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog enjoyed her stay at Katie’s! Katie was attentive to her needs and her dog got along great with ours. Katie’s home is cozy and Finley enjoyed the large backyard. I hope to be able to rebook with her in the future!”
“Nicole and Tim were great sitters! They were flexible, very quick to respond, and their home was very clean. They took great care of Quinn and I know she had a great time with them.”
“Misty and her family took great care of our golden retriever! She sent pictures of our happy pup, and our dog returned back to our routine at home without skipping a beat. We already booked our dog's next stay with Misty :)”
“Amelia was great! My dog was totally comfortable at her home. She sent pictures each day and kept us posted on how he was doing. She also took him on big walks through the parks. Would definitely recommend and will use again!”
“Shelly was such a great choice for our golden retriever Baker. He needed extra love and attention after a recent surgery and we felt reassured his stay here would be a good fit after meeting with Shelly. She communicated throughout Bakers stay and put our minds at ease that he was being well taken care of. We’ll definitely consider Shelly for future boarding needs.”
“I’ve had Karen watch my dog a couple of times, and each time has been fantastic. When I dropped off my dog for her second stay, she was so excited to see Karen and her dog, Squeak! It’s clear that my dog has built a great bond with them both. Karen sent daily photos, which I really appreciated—it was comforting to see my pup having such a great time! I can tell she feels loved, gets plenty of attention, and is well socialized during her stays. It’s such a relief to know my dog is in such good hands. Highly recommend Karen as a sitter!”
“Cynthia and Robert were great taking care of my doggies. Cynthia is very responsive and makes sure all the dogs needs are met. She’s great in sending photos and updates every day. Her family is great also. I can tell that my dogs had a good time. I will definitely be using their boarding services again.”
“Melanie was fantastic with my dog, Monty. I enjoyed receiving multiple updates and lots of photos to let me know he was doing okay. I highly recommend using Melanie.”
About: After nearly 15 years of caring for my own beloved small dog through every stage of life, I understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved while you’re away. I have extensive hands-on experience with small and senior dogs, as well as shy/nervous dogs, including medication routines, special needs, changing mobility levels, and dogs who simply need a little extra patience and attention. I’m especially interested in providing a calm, home-like environment rather than a busy kennel experience. My goal is to care for your dog like they’re temporarily part of my family — with plenty of attention, cuddles, walks, and time to relax. I prefer caring for one dog at a time so they receive lots of individual attention. Note - at this time I can only accept hypoallergenic or low shedding breeds that are under 40 pounds and are very comfortable walking on a leash. I work from home but I’m selective with my availability and only open my calendar when I know I can give your dog plenty of time and attention. I enjoy having a dog around the house and will make sure they get lots of companionship, walks, playtime, cuddles and downtime based on their normal routine. I prefer to care for one household’s dog at a time so they can feel comfortable and get plenty of individual attention. I’ll follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication and bedtime routines as closely as possible. I’m especially comfortable with small and senior dogs and understand that some pets need a little extra patience, supervision and TLC. I live on a small, quiet cul-de-sac but please note, I do not have a fenced in yard, so dogs must be very comfortable walking on a leash.
“Catherine is amazing!!!!!!! My baby had a ball she was so tired when we got home. It’s so hard to find people good with bigger dogs. She is our new dog sitter for sure. You won’t be disappointed.”
“I highly recommend Sonya and her family for pet sitting! I recently left my dog, Macario, with them while I was away camping for several days, and they took excellent care of him. It was clear from the updates and photos that he was comfortable, well-loved, and treated like part of the family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great stay. They were easy to communicate with, responsive, and genuinely cared about making sure both Macario and I felt comfortable throughout the experience. As a dog mom, having peace of mind while you're away is priceless, and that's exactly what they provided. I'll definitely be using them again in the future. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Macario!”
“Lucy is a very kind and knowledgeable person and dog mom! Made my dog feel right at home, and made me feel at peace knowing I had a die-hard animal lover loving my dog like one of her own. Lucy is responsive, and sends lots of updates and pictures. Lucky to have found Lucy!! My dog can’t wait to go back!”
“Amy was a wonderful sitter! I knew from the moment we had our meet and greet that Winston was going to be in good hands! For six nights, our dog was in a lovely home and was well cared for. Amy took him on regular walks and sent pictures to show us how happy and at home he was! I highly recommend Amy and plan to use her services in the future!”

Alyse was amazing! Our pups came to her at the very last minute due to an issue with another sitter. She was very quick to respond and was very accommodating taking our booking at the last minute! She did a great job with our girls! They were very well taken care of, we received lots of photos and we received very meaningful updates so we knew exactly how our girls were doing! They were exhaused & stressed when they got there and you took them in, gave them a comfortable place to rest & relax, took the stress away from them & took great care of them! Thank you so much for stepping in and making what was a very bad situation with our other sitter to turning it around ensuring our girls were cared for and taken care of all while keeping us updated along the way during their time with you! Highly reccommend booking with Alyse for your pups!
Ashlie was awesome and 10,000% would take the pups back to her family to watch my babies! House was comfy and cozy feeling, pups loved kiddos around, got updates and quick responses. Biggest thing when we did the meet and greet I felt comfortable immediately with her as she was definitely a dog person and felt that trust right away with her! Thanks again gal and looking forward to any future trips to bring them to you!
We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better family to watch Marcie! She’s still a puppy (about 10 months old), so she definitely comes with all the energy, personality, and occasional toddler-like behavior that you would expect 😂. Caitlin and Adam were absolutely amazing with her! From the moment we dropped her off, we felt like she was in the best hands. They treated her like one of their own, gave her so much love and attention, and kept us updated throughout her stay. Communication was wonderful, and it was so reassuring to know she was not only being well cared for but genuinely loved and treated like family. You can tell when someone truly loves animals, and this family absolutely does. We are so grateful for the care they gave Marcie and would recommend them a million times over. We will absolutely be using them again!
Our dog loves to stay with Sarah and Brody. When we book with Sarah, we know she’ll get plenty of action and attention, and we’ll get the peace of mind that comes with that. Sarah is always flexible with drop-offs and pick-ups and is a great communicator. Highly recommend.!
I just retrieved my happy & healthy dog from a long weekend with Sue. This was the 2nd time she's watched him. Both times have been wonderful. I receive updates with photos, and he gets his favorite activities- sunbathing & walking. My dog is a trickster, but her yard is securely fenced in. 5⭐️!
Katie is absolutely wonderful with Abby! She takes such great care of her, and we never have to worry when Abby stays with Katie. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing she is in such caring and capable hands. We also really appreciate the daily pictures and updates. It’s always reassuring to see Abby happy, comfortable, and enjoying her time. Katie treats her like one of her own, and we couldn’t ask for a better sitter. We highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pup!

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.
94% of sitters in Rock Hill 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 Rock Hill 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 Rock Hill.
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 Rock Hill. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 Rock Hill 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 MO 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.
