“Kaylah and her littles welcomed our pups into her home like they were their own! She was quick to respond to texts and pickup/drop off was so easy. Highly recommend! Thank you, Kaylah!”
“Jerry was amazing and took excellent care of Raya. He even celebrated her first birthday with a pup cup and doggy cookies! I very much appreciated the updates and pictures of how she was doing. Highly recommend Jerry!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover whose always had dogs and cats throughout my childhood and adulthood. I also have professional experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for 70+ dogs each day. That experience taught me how to handle dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs while making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. At home, we have a good sized fully fenced-in yard where your dog can run, play, and get plenty of outdoor time. I also love staying active myself, so going for walks with the dogs is one of my favorite parts of pet care. Whether your pet needs some extra playtime, a good long walk, or simply some love and companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I recently moved to North Carolina from Massachusetts with my fur babies and husband for my husband’s career and to continue his college career at UNCW. Currently, I am not working and pet care is my only focus. I give all my animals/the animals that I care for lots of love and attention. Additionally, I give them lots of play time and exercise.
“Samantha and her family were the best! They took such great care of Finn, he came home a very tired, happy boy. She was very quick to respond and provided daily updates with pictures while I was away. I will absolutely use this family again as a sitter. They are so trusting and I will be recommending them to all of my friends :)”


“Walker has some unexpected challenges while staying with Hilary and we felt that she navigated them well and also communicated them clearly. You don’t know what you don’t know sometimes! Our dog got plenty of exercise and playtime while there even though he had to stay crated more than usual. We were very pleased with Hilary!”

“Isabel was absolutely amazing with Storm! She sent photos throughout the day to put me at ease and certainly gave her plenty of exercise. She was available short notice and was flexible when my plane was delayed. I would highly recommend Isabel to anyone looking for boarding in the Wilmington area. I will definitely be calling her again when I travel again!”


“Took care of Lupe on a 14 day trip. Lupe is a little older and a wheaten terrier. Sometimes with an older dog and a little terrier in her, she could be a little quirky. But Taylor and his family accommodated Lupe very nicely and I am very grateful to have had their service and allowed their home for Lupe to stay as I had to travel for work.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always enjoyed being around all kinds of pets- from cats and dogs to farm animals. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I’ve dreamed of having the opportunity to spend more time with them. My husband and I moved to Wilmington about 10 years ago, and for much of that time, life kept us so busy that having a pet of our own didn’t feel fair. Since I haven’t had pets of my own during this time, I’ve happily gotten my animal fix by pet sitting for friends and caring for their cats and dogs whenever they’ve needed someone they trust. I work away from home (Registered Nurse since 2016) just one day a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets the attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and love they deserve. I have a fenced in yard, a nice neighborhood for walks and no other pets to care for. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own.
About: I’ve dog sat for friends and coworkers for 10+ years. I can assure you, your dog will get all the love while here in my care! We have a very energetic goldendoodle, that loves everyone and would love some playmates! I work not even 10 minutes from my house and am home daily on my lunch. I have a decent size fenced yard that allows the doggies to get out and run/play! If you are needing them to be crated, they absolutely can be but have an area they can run!
“Danielle did so great with our fur baby, made her feel right at home. She got to play with danielle’s fur babies and socialize and have fun. She was so happy when we picked her up. If I could recommend anyone it would be her.”

“Ashley was lovely and took such good care of my pup while I was gone! She sent daily pics and little messages which helped keep me in the loop even so far from home. Lucky came back exhausted and happy :) I’ll definitely be using Ashley again!”

“Ashley was wonderful. Personable & professional. Our pup Tau & I did a meet and greet first, and could feel right away that Ashley enjoys taking care of animals. Her home was animal friendly as evidenced by the comforters on the furniture so the pets could lay on them, lol. She provided plenty of pictures & updates. When I came to pick Tau up, I could tell he had been cared for, and was happy. Hope to be able to use her again, when the need arises. Thank you Ashley!!”

“If Parker could talk he would have nothing but good things to say about Kim and her "team" aka her kids. In every picture Kim shared with us during Parker's stay he was smiling. Better yet, he came home happy & tired. Kim's home was well outfitted for his visit and clean. Her home is close to a park and Parker enjoyed frequent visits and walks. Parker is looking forward to visiting again and I would highly recommend Kim to others.”

About: I grew up working on a farm and have always had dogs in my life. I have a sweet goldendoodle of my own. Currently attending dog grooming school at CFCC! 🐕 🐾 I work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. Enjoy being outdoors and would love to meet some new furry friends to join me! I have extensive pet sitting experience and will love yours like my own. I prioritize being present with your pet and communicating if any questions arise. *I DO NOT ACCEPT RESERVATIONS AT HOTELS*

“Courtney did an amazing job watching our dog Rosie. She was attentive, communicative, and sent pictures during our dog’s stay with her. I will definitely be using Courtney again as a dog sitter!”

I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to give your pet plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and overnight care. I can also accommodate different routines and will do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule while they’re in my care. have two friendly small dogs of my own and a secure fenced yard where your pup can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and exercise. I provide a comfortable, loving environment and always supervise pets to make sure everyone is safe and getting along. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you provide, while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and care.
“Brittany is more than a dog sitter. She involves her whole family in the care of our Daisy whenever our pup has been there . This gives us the assurance that Daisy is as comfortable there as she is at our own home. She gets plenty of exercise and stimulation there. When we drop Daisy off she immediately looks through the house for the kids to play with or for the sweet family cat for some fun. I can’t thank Brittany enough for the personal attention she gives and the precious experience Daisy has with her kids captured on awesome pictures sent throughout the day. We’d nominate Brittany for the best sitter award if Rover has one!”

““Alexis was amazing! She accepted my booking last minute the day before Thanksgiving, which I appreciated so much. She was incredibly sweet, communicative, and her adorable puppy was a bonus! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I will definitely be booking with her again on Rover.””

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 Sandyfield 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 Sandyfield.
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.
You and your Sandyfield 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.
