“Elise was absolutely wonderful to work with. She has great customer/pet skills. She offered a meet and greet, which meant a lot to me personally. She communicated with me throughout summer‘s entire stay including pictures. She made Summer feel as if she were right at home and I could see that in the pictures I would highly recommend Elise to any first time users and I will definitely use her again when needed.”
“Karleigh was fantastic!! This was my first time using Rover and was quite nervous. Karleigh took such great care of him and sent my photos and updates so I could see how much fun he was having!! She even gave him a report card to take home to show how good he did!! Karleigh truly took care of my little guy like he was her own!!!”
About: Our family has always had dogs growing up and we love our fur baby. He is a retired working dog with the best manners and very friendly with small and big dogs. We will take care of your dogs like they’re ours because that’s how we would want someone to watch out dog! I have experience with military working dogs, police dogs, and pet dogs. I have been in the position to handle as well as train all types of dogs throughout my career as a handler. I work days and my wife usually works nights so someone can be with the dog at all hours with a possible laps but never anything over 4-6 hours. We are happy to send pictures and videos throughout your pets. Good sized fenced in yard, and glass door for ease of supervision, house is only one story so no stairs for pups or older dogs.
About: I have had dogs all my life! I started watching other people’s animals when I was 15 and I also worked on a farm during that time. I worked as a veterinary technician for 2 years and have a keen eye when it comes to dogs! I rescued my own dog almost 4 years ago and life has been great with him! I would give your animal the same care I would give my own! And let me tell you … my boy miiight be a bit spoiled! I currently work Monday through Friday and I am away from the house 8-5. On weekends I would be able to give the pups my time and attention. I am very active and enjoy bringing my dog on quiet trails or out to the park. My dog River is a chihuahua mix that is very good with other animals. If I am to come to you, it would either just be me or River (my dog) and myself depending on what your animal is most comfortable with! You and your home will be treated with respect at all times. We give lots of snuggles and scheduled feedings, and I am fine with administering medication. Your dog will feel like they are on vacation when they are with me!
About: I have a flexible schedule at the moment and would love to help you out with your pet! We have a backyard - it is not fenced in yet but will be soon. We also have a golden retriever of our own named Millie. She is as sweet as can be and gets along with other dogs and animals. I am comfortable and willing to help with all kinds of dogs- preferably, kind and obedient. I can provide the love, care and exercise your dog needs! If you are interested please let me know. I have a flexible schedule right now during the summer months and have plenty of time to help. Plenty of opportunities for walks, play time, and adventures I have a yard and another pup to keep yours occupied! I will always have eyes on the animals and will make sure they are fed, have water, and go outside regularly. If I am visiting a home I will make sure to follow all directions given by the owner.

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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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.
