“Amber was fantastic! She took such great care of Sherman while we were away, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. She was dependable, caring, and easy to communicate with. Sherman was happy and well cared for when we got home. We would absolutely recommend Amber and wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Sherman again. Thank you!”
“Our pups had a wonderful stay! Stephanie easily comforted Jade through a pretty bad storm. I received lots of communication and pictures. These dogs are whooped after all the fun they had!”
“Joaquin provided excellent care for my Grandog Uma. This was her first time sleepover and I was a bit nervous about it but Joaquin provided updates daily and always included photos. Uma will definitely be back. I think she misses him already.”
“Taylor is amazing! She took such a good care of Canelo while I was at work, her dog Rêve played with him all day. It was wonderful to come home and have him tired out and happy.”
“Jessica was super awesome and flexible. We took care of Jupiter and also provided some feedback about something we had not thought of regarding her Mobility. Although it wasn't a good fit she did a wonderful job thank you again”
“Holly was an amazing host. Our 10 month old doodle was well cared for and happy. Holly shared daily updates and was always available whenever I texted. I really appreciate Holly's whole family for taking such great care of Gus.”
“Mary was fantastic. She kept me updated with how my dog, Gemma, was adjusting and sent great photos that made it obvious her family was enjoying Gemma and Gemma was loving her time there as well.”
“Lakonka was theeee best sitter. From the meet and greet to the end of Phoebe’s stay, she was extremely professional, super friendly and easy to communicate with. I received pictures or a video every day which is truly appreciated when I’m away from my baby awhile. I highly recommend Lakonka for your fur baby’s needs. So much so, I’ve already coordinated the next time Phoebe will be in her care :)”
“Tyra did a wonderful job with River. This was our first time using Tyra for boarding and would definitely use her again. She took pictures and kept me in the loop. River had a blast with Tyra and all the dogs there too!”
“Our Sammy is a puppy and can be a handful, and Sarah handled him with TLC and gave him the best care! She updated me with pics and videos, and he had so much fun! Sammy is going back in July for another stay. I am 100% satisfied with the love and care they gave my baby! Thank you Sarah!!”
“Kaitlyn was so sweet with our dog. She tends to get pretty nervous with new environments, but she was able to adjust really quick. Wonderful to see pictures and updates every day. Highly recommend her services!”
About: I’m an extra large( Anatolian) and small( mug) dog breed owner with a nice sized backyard. I love to walk and I love dogs. I’ve had experience training not only my dogs, but a few stubborn breeds. So for all my large and extra large dog owners, I’m here to help. I work from home, so if your dog is dog friendly, they can board or spend time in my home if not, I’m available for a dog walking early mornings and evenings. I have a fence yard and two friendly fur babies. I’m a large human being so walking any breed of dog will not be a problem.
“Kacie was absolutely incredible with our dog Brodie! We were in town for our wedding at Bella Collina and she went above and beyond and you can tell she is just super caring of all the dogs she takes care of. We worked out an arrangement where she would bring our dog to our venue for our ceremony and it went sooo smooth! I would 100% recommend her, especially for any others who may be coming in out of town and might not get a meet and greet like we couldn't. Our only regret is that she didn't live closer, as she would definitely have become our go to sitter after this experience.”
“Tyler did awesome with my two doggies when a last minute overnight came up! I will definetly be using him again! He also sent pictures and videos :) my boys are happy and safe and had a great time!”
“Stephanie was a great sitter for SamE! She is quick with her communication, accommodating with her schedule, made sure our dogs were comfortable together, and kept me updated during SamE’s stay. I appreciate the care she provided and have already rebooked her.”
“I can't say enough good things about Stephanie. She truly loves senior dogs and understands their extra needs and quirkiness. During their stay, Stephanie medicated one of ours 3 times per day, loved on them and picked up on and adapted to their personalities. Don't let her boarding other dogs at the same time stop you from booking with Stephanie because she knows what she's doing. My two are their own pack but loved having others around for company. Lots of pictures and texts during the week.”
About: Caring for dogs has been a big part of my life for the past 20 years. This year I lost both of my fur babies, one due to cancer and the other due to old age and mobility issues. My love and compassion for animals will continue on and hopefully allow me to help others with their petcare needs. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs at every stage of life—from playful puppies who need patience, structure, and lots of attention to senior dogs who need extra comfort, care, and understanding. 🐶 Caring for puppies and helping them adjust to routines and new environments 🦴 Providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs 🐕 Handling both small and large breeds 🏡 Maintaining feeding, walking, potty, and medication routines as instructed ❤️ Providing plenty of companionship, affection, playtime, and one-on-one attention 👀 Closely monitoring pets for changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or overall well-being 🐾 Following each pet parent's instructions and keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible 😊 Understanding that some dogs are energetic and playful while others are shy, anxious, or need a little extra patience 🐾 My Work Schedule and Availability I work a full-time job, with the flexibility to work from home two out of my five workdays. I’m available for pet care during evenings and weekends, and I can often adapt to other schedules when needed with advance notice. I understand that every pet and pet parent has different scheduling needs, so I do my best to be flexible and dependable. Whether you need evening visits, weekend care, or a customized schedule arranged ahead of time, I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet. 🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment I provide attentive, dependable care tailored to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level. Before beginning care, I take time to learn about your pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, behavior, favorite activities, and any special instructions. I follow your directions carefully and maintain familiar routines whenever possible to help your pet feel safe and relaxed. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I supervise pets closely, use secure leashes and harnesses during walks, check doors and gates before leaving, and keep potentially harmful items out of reach. I also pay attention to weather conditions, your pet’s energy level, and any signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. If I notice anything unusual, I will contact you promptly and follow your preferred emergency instructions. I understand that welcoming a pet sitter into your home requires trust. I treat every home with care and respect, follow household guidelines, and keep your pet’s environment clean and comfortable. I provide regular updates, including messages and photos when requested, so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you are away.

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 Shannon Forest home-away-from-home, 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 Shannon Forest.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Shannon Forest 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 , 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 .
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.
