“As usual, Lisa was amazing with Molly. It is such a relief when you have to leave and know your fur baby will be well taken care off. I would recommend Lisa to anyone who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter for your pet.”
“Julia was great. She sent lots of pictures and it seemed like my dogs truly enjoyed staying with them. She was flexible as our drop off and pick up times had to change, and she made sure to check in often. I will definitely use them again and recommend their service to others.”
“For the weekend of March 20-22, we had such a good experience with Carlita watching our Lewey. You always feel a little nervous leaving your dog with someone for the first time, but she took good care of him. We so appreciated the regular updates of how he was doing. She kept us posted on his eating, playing and potty breaks so that we would know how he was doing and adjusting to a new environment. She took him on regular walks, ensured that he had playtime, and it was a plus that he had two other pups to play with. Carlita is professional, friendly and warm, and we would definitely recommend her. Thank you, Carlita, for taking time with Lewey while we were away.”
“Elaine and her family were wonderful. They treated my dogs like their own. Elaine handled my rambunctious 1 year old dog, Annika like a professional dog trainer and Goose, my 4 year old, enjoyed home school with her daughters. Petunia, Elaine's family dog is very sweet and gets along very well with other dogs. I will definitely look to Elaine in the future for any pet boarding needs.”
“Amazing!! Seriously so lucky we found Kelly to watch our German Shepard puppy! He was 7 months old, which can be a challenge to take on, but she was extremely communicative, accommodating, and put our mind at ease all week. Our puppy is a little timid around other dogs at first, and she did a wonderful job at getting him comfortable and making it a great experience for him. Would highly recommend her!”
“I cannot recommend Marissa & Mosieo enough! Leaving my Yorkie for over five days while traveling out of the country was nerve wracking, but they made the entire experience worry-free. They provided regular updates and photos, which gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was in excellent hands. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the whole time. I will absolutely be using them again for all my future travel. They are my go to sitters from now on!”
“Once again, Joel has exceeded expectations. We left our highly energetic Lester for an overnight stay. He kept us updated while managing to exercise and entertain Les. Joel did an amazing job earning our trust at our initial sitting encounter before the overnight, and I can’t imagine anyone else coming close. We are so grateful for his service and care. If you are remotely hesitant about leaving your dog, please know that Joel is the best man for the job! We are repeat customers and certainly plan on continuing to be.”
“Luis watched my dog for a long weekend in July 2025. His responsiveness, attention to my dog's routine, and warm and welcoming environment were greatly appreciated. His dog, Elvis, is an absolute sweetie! Luis provided plenty of updates/photos and was very patient when my dog let his puppiness get the best of him. We would definitely use him again!”
“Kelli and her family were great for my almost 11 yr old pupper. She was very communicative and sent pics throughout the time. Was very happy with the entire process. Was able to plan a pre visit meet and greet, and she seemed to have spoiled him a bit, which i appreciate it greatly! Will def contact Kelli again in the future! Thanks again!”
“We've used Sarai for doggie daycare and a long weekend of boarding and we were so happy with how our sweet girl Ellie was treated. I know Ellie was happy because she would get so excited when we would get to Sarai's house. They have a big fenced in yard and I got may pictures and video's of Ellie playing and relaxing outside. I could tell from all of the pictures that Ellie was being treated like one of the family. We will definitely use Sarai again in the future if we need someone to watch Ellie for us. We highly recommend!”
“Andrea was very easy to work with. We did a Meet and Greet a few weeks before Oskar stayed with her. She sent pictures and updates almost every day. She responded promptly to my messages. I would consider sending Oskar to Andrea again if I needed a dog sitter.”
“We contacted Alex at the last minute to board our dog, Finn. She is amazing!! Her response time was fast, we were able to schedule a meet and greet that same day and she took excellent care of Finn during his stay. She has 2 well behaved dogs that loved up on Finn. He did so well with Alex and we were at ease for our very special trip. She is organized and handles many dogs at a time with confidence and skill. She is good at communicating so we knew how Finn was doing. I highly recommend Alex! We will use her in the future for sure!”
“Jessie always takes such good care of Harper is if she was their own. I get daily updates (from Harper’s POV which makes it even better). I know Harper is in good hands anytime I leave her with Jessie!”
“Maria and her husband did a great job keeping Buster! She sent me pictures to make me feel at ease and send me updates that he was eating and playing well with others. She was also very kind and flexible with drop off and pick up times. We will be contacting her again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Smithfield
First time using rover or anything similar! We were so nervous but had to leave town for a funeral. Fransisco put all of our worries to bed! He agreed to a meet and greet with us and the dogs before we even booked. His location couldn't be any better for your pups vacation. With a dog park across the street and a fenced in backyard our dogs came home happy and chipper. I can't tell you how much happier our dogs were with Fransisco compared to boarding them. Last time we boarded our dogs they came home exhausted, smelly, paranoid. With Fransisco you can leave your pups with full spirits knowing they'll will be perfectly safe and healthy. Fransisco also has great animal expertise, when it comes to dogs with health complications, he is the pup sitter you NEED!
I was so happy with Joselyn and her care for my dog, Pluto. She was incredibly attentive, sending pictures and updates throughout the day, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Pluto seemed to really enjoy his walks and playtime with Joselyn, and I came home to a happy and relaxed pup.

There are 1,151 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Smithfield. About 91% of Smithfield sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
