“John was outstanding in keeping our Jinger he sent us pictures and videos of her every day which we appreciated very much. We had no worries or doubts that our dog was in great hands. Now we can finally feel comfortable and confident when we travel without our loving dog that she’s in great hands. We will definitely use John again. Thanks again John. Bill & Dee”
“Wonderful care of our loved one Jodi. They provided excellent updates, photos and pictures. Responses were quick and accommodating to our nedd”
“So happy with our experience with Ricardo! He treated our lab just like family, and by the photos I could tell just how much Bailey was enjoying himself at the farm! He got ample play and love time. Ricardo was great about keeping us up to date on how Bailey was doing every day! We were very busy day of and chose to have pick up and drop off which was also very easy! Overall, I highly recommend Ricardo and will use him any other time Bailey needs to be boarded!”
“She was great, I could see that Bella loved to stay with her. She sent me pictures and videos everyday. She has a very clean house which I really appreciate. I will definitely book her again.”
“Kristyn is an excellent caretaker! Our 90 pound sweetheart had an accident a year ago and is incontinent. This was the first time we left her - and while we were concerned Kristyn put us at ease with daily pictures and communication of Skylars status. We left her for 9 days. Kristyn also arranged to pick her up and drop her off at home. We also paid a visit to her beautiful property which is LARGE and very welcoming for a dog. We highly recommend Kristyn for all your pet sitting needs!!”
“Coco loved Beverly from the moment she saw her! I was surprised to see how she ran up to her, tail wagging and excited, just as she does when she sees my mom. Beverly was sweet and warm to Coco and even showed genuine concern for her allergies, giving tips to help. I will definitely return to Beverly.”
“I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Armonee. My dogs first time with a boarder and she could not have made things easier for him and me. Her communication is top tier with regular texts, photos and concerns. She is caring, gentle and tailors her approach to fit the animals needs, like she did with my special needs senior dog. She treats pets like they are her own and it is obvious from the moment you meet her. I trusted her completely and will be rebooking with her in the future. Highly, highly recommend if you are looking for a safe and loving place for your pet. My dog came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for.”
“Would definitely recommend, my dog can be a little complicated and needs a little extra love and these two took care of him great. Definitely will be back and thankful they helped during a holiday!”
“Penny was so comfy here! She always takes a second to warm up but I can tell she had a great time. They sent me pics through out my trip and I didn’t worry a bit about her. It was so nice knowing she was taken care of and they’re close to the airport which is a huge plus. Definitely will be rebooking!”
About: I have always had dogs, usually multiple amongst a wide variety of other pets. I am a big animal lover of all types! When I was younger I lived on a farm in Southern California where we had many dogs, cows, goats, horses and cats whom I helped care for. I live alone and would love a pet but hope to be more stable in my career before making that commitment so, for now, pup-sitting is as good as it gets!! I currently work as an artist from home so I am available all day everyday with a flexible schedule! I love pet sitting and having the company while I WFH. I happily take breaks to hangout in the backyard with them or get our steps in on a walk! I have a house with a big yard that’s fully enclosed so no need to worry that your pet could get out. I will happily take them on walks in my lovely neighborhood but they can also play in the yard all day or relax in the house.
“The plan was to go on vacation outside the country for 3 weeks. But concern about the health and welfare of my dogs left me on the verge of cancelling. They did not deserve to be dumped at the kennels to be left in a cage and friends and family were not available for 3 weeks. RB and Muffins, my two Shih Tzu, are extremely sociable and need interaction with humans. I was very fortunate to have found Rover.com which led me to Michelle. I would cancelled my vacation if I had not. I know I dropped off two happy dogs to her and picked-up two happy and healthy dogs 3 weeks later. Michelle and her Ben took really good care of my two kids. I know they were treated like family. Almost daily I received photos, and just the fact that I could easily communicate with her via e-mails gave me peace of mind. I will not hesitate to contact her for future stays. ”
“Marie was everything we could ask for! She communicated with us daily. She sent photos of our puppy playing and that made all the difference. Her back yard was big enough for our GSP to run around and enjoy herself all day. Thank you so much Marie!”

“Crystal was amazing and in such notice didn’t hesitate to offer her services. She took such great care and her communication throughout Chanel’s stay was A+”
“Kristin did a great job watching our dog, Lucky for 3 days. Kristin sent pictures of Lucky walking and getting a belly rub, which he loved. I would highly recommend Kristin to watch your dog (or other pet). Very responsible. Thanks Kristin”
“Shawn was great with my two pups! I loved how he made sure everyone would get along before committing and asked all the questions I would hope a dog sitter would ask. He was very open in getting to know my dogs’ quirks and was flexible with me when I had to add on an extra night because of a late incoming flight. Would definitely recommend!”
“Ben was great with my dog and communicated daily. He was flexible and accommodating and she loved staying with him. Would absolutely use again!”

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 Tar Corner 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 Tar Corner 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 Tar Corner.
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 Tar Corner. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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 Tar Corner 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.
