“Took a last minute booking after our scheduled boarder decided that our dog was too much. Our dog had no issues with her at all. She saved us from being in a bad position and handled our dog who doesn't like being without us without issue for five days.”
“Kimberly was such a great sitter! As I was away, I received reassuring photos that my pets were doing well while in her care! This was my first time trying a sitter out on the app and she made it as painless as possible! Great communication! I recommend Kimberly , and I will definitely be using her as a future sitter! Thanks Kimberly”
“Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.”
“I'm so happy I found Laura! She was amazing with my 2 dogs and sent pictures multiple times a day. I don't have to worry anymore about them when I go away as now they have a second home.”
“Joanne was so great and our Luna girl had a fabulous time hanging out with her and her sweet dog Simon. Joanne made me very comfortable at our meet and greet and throughout the whole weekend while we were away. It was our first time leaving Luna with anyone and I was a little nervous and anxious, but Joanne had everything under control and I was able to relax and enjoy the weekend. I highly recommend her. Her home is clean and pet friendly and her backyard is absolutely beautiful and a great place for the dogs to enjoy. So happy I found Joanne and we will definitely be using her again. You won’t be disappointed if you choose her to watch your fur baby!”
“Hanna was a great host. She took care of my dogs as her own. She would send daily pictures and videos. I would highly recommend her place for dog sitting.”
“Mitzi and her whole family was amazing. She kept our mini goldendoodle and our pup loved it. We received so many pictures and videos. We can’t wait to book with her again. Definitely would consider it a home away from home for our fur baby. Thanks again Mitzi!”
About: For the past year I've been pet sitting for friends and clients. I take care of the feeding, walks, and playtime, and I stick to whatever routine your pet is used to. I set my own work hours, so it's pretty easy for me to fit pet care in. I'm usually free weekday evenings and weekends and I'm happy to plan visits around whatever your pet's used to. Since I have two dogs myself, I know all about that stuff. You can be assured that your dog will get his food on time, he will get enough potty stops and play as well. My backyard is fenced / I walk him always on the leash, and I will be checking all the doors and gates each time.
“Paulette and Chad are AMAZING!!! They not only took amazing care of our dog but they ultimately took good care of us. It started when they gave us the option to bring our dog over to meet their dog. They were so patient and kind. The communication while we were gone was amazing and they were very flexible when our flight was delayed. I could tell our girl felt right at home. Best sitters and just good people. Will absolutely ask them to pet sit again.”
“Rebecca took amazing care of our dog! We needed someone a bit last minute and Rebecca was a great fit. We were able to leave for the weekend and know that Tugboat was well taken care of. We will definitely be asking her to watch him again!”
“During the meet and greet, our Bella roamed around the backyard and instantly connected with Sarai and her daughter. This was the first meet and greet that Bella did not appear anxious and was visibly calm and happy. Dropping Bella off for her stay was seamless as Sarai’s family excitedly welcomed her into their home. During Bella’s stay, Sarai sent regular updates and gorgeous pictures of Bella playing and “taking over” as spoiled dog number 1. Sarai and her family are phenomenal and we will definitely book again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for Jack while we were away! Communication was excellent, and we especially appreciated all the photos and videos—seeing Jack happy and well cared for gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear he was in great hands and getting lots of love. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again. Thank you so much!”
“Milika was very nice. She took good care of my 4 month old golden doodle. She took him out for walks and sent me several pictures / videos while I was away. I definitely recommend her.”
“Johnny had such a great time with Jill. He felt right at home at her house. I would let her sit Johnny anytime and I highly recommend . She is great with animals.”
“Parris was so good with my pup and we got so many updates. He enjoyed himself so much and received lots of cuddles and attention. We are def going to book again.”
“Wonderful!! Responds promptly very friendly. Deann took excellent care of our boy could of not ask for a better sitter. She made us feel very comfortable gave updates during our trip. I would recommend her to everyone”
“Andrea is great. We got regular updates with photos and she cares a lot about the pets she watches Sally wasn’t eating her food and Andrea made and added Chicken Broth so Sally would eat. Amazing 🤩”
“Kelly was fabulous with my two doodles. I had never left them with somebody before and because my oldest dog has sight issues I was very nervous, but Kelly put me at ease immediately. Every day she would send me photos or videos with a little snippet about how things were going. I looked forward to seeing the photos and I could tell that they were having fun running around her yard. It is obvious that Kelly loves dogs and I will definitely use her again.”
“I recently boarded my dog with Josh for 16 days, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. He was incredibly attentive, sending regular photo updates and keeping me informed about my dog's activities, which gave me peace of mind throughout the stay. It was clear he genuinely cared about the well-being of my dogs. What really stood out was the thoughtful touch of buying a new toy for my dogs to enjoy during their stay. It’s little gestures like these that show the level of care and consideration he provides. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with the stay and would highly recommend Josh to any dog owner looking for a reliable, caring place to board their pet.”

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.
96% of sitters in Selma 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 Selma 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 Selma.
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 Selma. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Selma 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.
