About: I have had dogs, all my life, from Chihuahuas up to German Shepards. I’ve had dogs who have had diabetes and cancer from the time they were puppies up to adult seniors. My dogs are my family, and they are spoiled rotten! I am retired and stay at home most of the time. The dogs are allowed to roam through the house as long as they behave themselves and they get plenty of treats exercise when playing outside. The only time my dog is kennel is when I need to go to a doctor appointment. My dog is a Weimaraner and black lab mix. She is a very hyper and loving dog who loves to play fetch with the ball. She is longing for a playmate, since her best friend passed away a few months ago.

“Great first day with Seana! Kilo is a very sweet and gentle dog! Seana is watching my dog several times a week and so far it’s gone well! Seems like my dog is enjoying staying at her place while I’m at class! Will continue to have her as a sitter :)”

About: Looking for a sitter who pays attention to your dog’s habits, follows your instructions, and understands that every pet is different? I offer boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-in visits in Raeford, with walks and visits available in surrounding areas. I also have access to Fort Bragg. My background in dog training helps me bring structure, patience, and mental enrichment to your dog’s care. Whether your dog enjoys practicing familiar cues or needs a gentler pace, I take time to understand what works for them. I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs with special needs. For boarding, I welcome dogs from just one guest household at a time. Your dogs can stay together without sharing their visit with boarding dogs from other families. They’ll join my two resident dogs in a home with a fenced yard, with compatibility discussed before booking. I welcome detailed instructions. Your pet’s feeding routine, familiar cues, preferences, and boundaries help me provide care that feels consistent with home. I also offer cat drop-ins for families who want their cats cared for in familiar surroundings. I do require meet and greets for first time clients. Daycare and boarding stays are required to be dog friendly and will be required to meet my two pups in a neutral location before booking is confirmed. Pets must be up to date on vaccinations and not be carrying fleas. Any and all behavioral issues must be disclosed prior to booking. This allows us both to determine if my care and environment is the best fit for your pet. Pet care is my main focus, so I have flexibility to plan visits, walks, and stays around your pet’s routine. Before booking, we’ll discuss the timing and attention they need to make sure my schedule is a good fit. I’m based in Raeford, with access to Fort Bragg, and welcome inquiries from Fayetteville, Hope Mills, and nearby communities. Include your dates and neighborhood when messaging so I can confirm availability for your location. My home has a fenced yard and room for dogs to play and relax indoors. I welcome boarding dogs from one guest household at a time, giving your pets individual attention while allowing dogs from the same family to stay together. I have two dogs of my own, so we’ll discuss compatibility and arrange a meet-and-greet before a first stay. Tell me how your dog handles play, sharing space, and downtime so we can assess whether my home suits them. For care in your home, I follow your instructions and respect your pet’s familiar routine and your household boundaries. Details are welcome, especially the little things that help your pet feel secure.

About: Best Care for Your Pets! Hi! My name is Katlin. I've been surrounded by animals my entire life and have always had a passion for caring for them. I currently share my home with my spouse, my two daughters, our dog and cat. Our animals are truly part of our family. I love spending time outdoors, whether it's going for walks, playing fetch, or simply giving dogs the attention and exercise they need. Having owned dogs with a variety of personalities and energy levels, I'm comfortable caring for pups of all ages and temperaments. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. That's why I'll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. I'm also happy to provide regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I'll make sure they receive personalized care and plenty of affection. I would be honored to care for your pets and look forward to meeting both you and your four-legged family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a pet owner myself. I care for my dog, cat, and betta fish every day, including feeding, exercise, playtime, and ensuring they have a safe and comfortable environment. Because caring for animals is already a regular part of my schedule, I am able to provide dependable, attentive care for your pets as well. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I enjoy making sure pets receive the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is a clean, pet-friendly environment where animals are treated like family. I carefully supervise all pets, maintain a secure space free of hazards, and ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while they are in my care.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was little. I grew up on a farm and helped my Great Dane! with her puppy’s, as well as dog sitting others. I have a dog of my own and he is truly my best friend! I have gone though about a year if training classes with him to help his separation anxiety. I’m currently at home looking to start online college so I’m free all day, I’m also usually home all day due to my husband using our car for work. I have a very friendly fur baby who has lots of toys. I also have a dog park across the street from my apartment for pup to run around!
“So happy with Natalie. She took such great care of Covie during her daycare stay. Covie had a great time walking and playing with King. Will totally look to use Natalie again on my next trip back.”

About: As a pet parent to two dogs and a cat, I know firsthand that every animal has their own personality, quirks, and needs. Whether they’re full of energy, a little shy, or just want someone to snuggle with, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at! I’m also a mom to a little girl who absolutely LOVES animals! She’s growing up surrounded by furry friends and shares my love for all things fourlegged. Of course, any interactions with pets are always supervised, and I understand that not every animal is comfortable around little ones. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. You can absolutely expect pictures and updates while you’re away! I’m a stay-at-home mom and full-time online college student, so my schedule is pretty flexible! Between schoolwork, spending time with my daughter, and caring for our own little zoo, animals are already a big part of my everyday routine. I’m home quite a bit throughout the week, which gives me plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, playtime, walks, and extra attention. I love having a routine but also understand that every pet has their own schedule, and I’m happy to work with yours! Whether your fur baby needs some company during the day or a little extra TLC while you’re away, I’d love to help! I know every animal is different. Some want to be your shadow all day, and others need a little time to warm up. I’m happy to give them whatever space or attention they need. I’ll always make sure introductions are done carefully, especially with my daughter and our pets. I also know how nerve racking it can be leaving your animals with someone else. I’ll follow whatever routines or instructions you leave me, and I’m more than happy to send pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing!
About: I have animals since I am 6, I have a malinois in the house with us and my husky is going to join us in December. I have my husky since 6 years now, those bread teach you a loooooot of patience. My Malinois is still young only 6 months old. We also have a kitty, my parents back in France have a lot of cats that I took care for years. I am at home almost all day expect to go do some grocery or else, I take my dog out when I wake up, during the day and before going to bed. She also knows how to ask. My animals are free to go anywhere and sleep with us in the bed or in their bed at our feets. We put her in the room when we leave to avoid having to much mess everywhere. I don’t wanna put her in a crate.

About: I’m a college student and athlete who truly loves being around animals. I have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and my own cat, Sven, who I’ve raised since he was a kitten. I also grew up with my childhood dog for over 10 years, and after she passed away in August of last year, it made me appreciate even more how special the bond with pets really is. Because of that, I love meeting new animals and giving them the same care, attention, and love I gave my own. Being a volleyball player has taught me responsibility, consistency, and patience, qualities I bring into every pet I care for. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just companionship, I treat every pet like they’re family. I’m currently in school Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 9:00 AM to 1:30 PM, which still leaves me with plenty of availability in the afternoons and evenings. I also work a part-time job on Tuesdays and some saturdays, with shifts ranging from 5–7 hours, and I play college volleyball, practicing every week day 330-6pm. Even with my schedule, I’m very organized and flexible, and I always make time for responsibilities that matter. I’m committed to working with pet owners to find a schedule that fits their needs, whether that’s regular visits, drop-ins, or adjusting my routine to make sure their pet is well cared for and not left alone too long. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in whatever environment they’re in. In a client’s home, I try to stick closely to their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions they provide. I make sure their space stays clean, especially when it comes to things like litter boxes or food areas, and I always keep a close eye on their behavior to make sure they’re doing well. I also give updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. In my own home, I create a calm and clean environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. I make sure they have a safe space, plenty of attention, and regular care throughout the day. Since I care for my own cat, Sven, I’m very familiar with maintaining routines, cleanliness, and making sure pets are comfortable and well looked after. No matter the setting, I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get the attention and care they deserve.
About: I love all animals, whether they are big, small, old or young. They will be loved just as they were my own. I have owned cats, dogs, rabbits, turtles, pretty much anything that has legs. All types of animals have lived with me and been cared for by me over the course of my life! I have cared for young dogs, old dogs and started my own pet sitting business when I was 13 years old. I have a huge yard that has a 5 foot wall with lots of open space for your pet baby to run and play. They will constantly have access to the outdoors since I have an XL built in doggy door that provides access to our enclosed backyard. I work full time but I have a very friendly Shepard who is home all day to entertain our furry friends. There is always access to the enclosed backyard through a doggy door. All pets that come stay at our home are treated as my own. They are loved, cuddled and pampered. There are no safety hazards to worry about in our home.
About: I was born in Brazil and used to do veterinary college and dog training at the same time. So I have a lot experience with dogs and other type of species as well. My passion is to be around of dogs. I work with dogs since very little! I am dog lover and love to be around animals. Also I am a dog groomer. So my passion is working with them. I studied veterinary but did not finished because I decided to be an jiu jitsu athlete but I am still falling in love when I talk about dogs! I used to work as a dog trainer and groomer, but once I moved here I focus a lot in my athlete’s life but right now I decided that I want the opportunity to be back where I started from, being around dogs, what I like most ☺️ Hope I can have the opportunity to take care of your furry friend. I have some days that I can take care of the dogs, usually the best days are on weekends but sometimes I have available days on the week. I care a lot. I just wanna try to let them as much comfortable as possible, because is already stressful for dogs get out from their own home to some stranger one. So my goal is let them as more comfortable as I can.
About: Like everyone else on this app, I love dogs, and grew up with German Shepherds However, I started on the rover app because I wanted to provide something I thought was missing… reliable pet care for high energy and athletic dogs. I travel a lot and the last thing I want to worry about is if my 70 pound GSD is wearing out the kind old lady I left her with because that’s who was available. Rest assured, if you leave your dog with me for work or for play, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. Need daily runs or multiple walks a day? Good. We run every day. Need yard play time? Not a problem. Extra belly rubs? Easy. Is your Dog a couch potato? I have a couch and have happy to give rubs and chill out. The point is, weather for a week or a weekend, if you leave your dog with me, you can focus on where ever your travels are taking you. I have a pretty demanding full time job. I’m only available for boarding in my home. If I’m home, your dog has 100% of my focus. I have a very well trained and very social GSD and a large fenced in yard. I also have rooms I can fence off to give your dog some space. I’m happy to play fetch, take multiple walks, and daily runs if needed.
About: I’ve had all animals, big and small. Mostly labs, doodles, and retrievers, but also bully’s, Great Danes, and yorkies. We have a huge fenced in backyard and 2 doodles with the middle name “zoomies”. Our family is looking forward to connecting with you, and an opportunity to love on your pups. Someone is usually always home so crate time is very minimal unless that’s the preference. Plenty of time and space to run and play if weather permits. Huge fenced in back yard for running and playing as well as 2 doodles and 2 children who adore dogs to keep them company while they are hanging with us.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rockfish
The Best Sitter Ever! Mel is truly incredible! From day one, my dog Belle treated her like a best friend. It was so heartwarming to see how much Belle loved their time together. The highlight was definitely the hikes. She took Belle on adventurous trails that I’d never be able to take her on, which made Belle extra happy. She also sent constant photos and updates, so I felt like I was right there with them the whole time. I couldn't have asked for a more dedicated or loving person to watch my girl!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Rockfish is $27 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $33 per day. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 291 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Rockfish. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Rockfish commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 291 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NC. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
