“Brittany was amazing! She watched our furr baby and she came home peaceful and content. That's important for us as she is an older girl. I would definitely use Brittany again!”
“She was an amazing dog sitter. She kept Sheba for 3 days and kept us informed the entire time. She let us know right away if anything was off and truly cared about Sheba’s wellbeing. She was also very kind and professional when we met. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her.”
“Seriously, Cathy did an amazing job with our pup. She even laid down extra rugs for our pup who struggles with hardwood floors sometimes. Kept us updated on everything. Took him for plenty of walks. Really a great experience! Highly recommend!!”
“Christopher and Christina were wonderful to watch my dog Max for a full week. I had such peace of mind and received regular updates and photos of Max during that time. Can not recommend them enough!”

About: I have a background in animal husbandry with experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, fish, and reptiles in both professional and personal settings. I have a B.S. degree in Zoology and have worked at a veterinarian’s office, Zoos & Aquariums, as well as ran my own rabbitry business. I love caring for animals, it is my passion. I would love to care for yours! I am insured through Pet Care Insurance. I am currently a stay at home mom and work from home part time as a travel agent so I have plenty of time to care for pets and make sure they are well cared for. I have a large indoor space and a large backyard, with plenty of walking areas in my neighborhood. I live with my husband, two kids, and Cavapoo puppy.
“We were pleased that Pluto was cared for and safe during the time we were away and did not worry about him. We knew he was in good hands. He had a chance to play with other dogs, get out for walks. Thanks Karisa!”
“Excellent sitters! They made our first stay worry free with curtesy updates on our fur babies! Great set up! The puppies enjoyed playing in the fully fenced in backyard! I don’t think they wanted to leave!😂”
About: Hi there! My name is Miles and I was raised to love animals I actually grew up on a farm surrounded by horses, chickens, dogs, cats, and more! Caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I currently have two pups of my own — one I rescued 8 years ago and another I adopted just last year — and they’ve only deepened my love and understanding of all kinds of pets. I have a very flexible schedule right now and am more than happy to work with you to fit your (and your fur babies’) needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll treat your pets like my own! 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily adjust to fit you and your pet’s needs — whether that’s regular walks, drop-in visits, or extra cuddle time. I take safety and comfort seriously and always make sure pets are in a calm, secure, and happy environment and do everything to make sure you pet is safe!
“Brittany is the greatest. This was our first time using her and her cute little Bailey. Mac, our Labrador is so content after 10 days with Brittany. We’ve already booked her for a second time in one month time. Thank you, Brittany!”
“Tiffany is absolutely amazing! Ben had a great time and when I picked him up he kept going to her for snuggles and pets. Tiffany went above and beyond with Ben and was so professional. I will definitely try Tiffany first if I ever need hosting for Ben. 5 Star!!”
About: I have over 900 5 Star reviews on the Wag! app for dog walking, boarding and overnight sitting. Joined a local company that I currently work for and have several private clients that prefer to work with me directly. I have pet care insurance independently from the platforms I've used. I leave every home I visit better than I found it. Checking mail, taking out trash, all manner of special touches. I am handy and have changed light bulbs and air conditioning filters at overnights where i felt the client needed help with those things. Dogs naturally love me. I've had clients joke about their dog liking me more than them. I go above and beyond to make sure your pet is safe and happy while in my care. I can leash train or correct "bad" behavior with positivity and patience. I am working on CPR certification and constantly expand my knowledge of breeds and training techniques. I care for pets full-time. Ready to do walks, dropins and overnight sittings. I am pretty full as far as midday walks go, but can adjust in certain cases I currently don't do day care at my home. I do have my own dog that often accompanies me for my visits and pet sitting.
“Marlon was wonderful! He watched my dog, Gigi, at his house for a week while we were on a family trip. He even picked her up and dropped her off. We got regular pictures and updates. Lots of photos of her at the dog park. She seemed really happy when she came back home. Will definitely be reaching out to Marlon the next time we are out of town!”
“Yamy & Alfonso the absolute best pet sitters! My precious Leo was super happy, loved, cared for daily. Communication was beyond excellent and I felt super happy and relieved on my trip. Since I knew my baby Leo was in great hands. Thank you so much for everything ❤️”

Brooke was amazing with our elderly dog, I was very nervous with leaving her for the first time with someone outside of the family for several days while we were on our cruise. Brooke eased our mind and we say immediately that our dog would be just fine once they met. Willow came back smiling and happy!!! Definitely will keep Brooke as her babysitter. :)

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 .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
