“I wish Rover would let me rate 10 ⭐s because she's absolutely that good. If you're a worrying fur Mama like me, this is where you want to leave your pets at. She goes really above and beyond with photos and text messages just to let you know that your babies are in good hands. Ms. Kenlynn is the only person I'll trust to watch after my pets. She's their fairy godmother now ?”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. When our boy Charlie became limited on his mobility due to an injury before arriving, she went over and beyond to meet his needs. Thank you so much! We will always recommend her!”
About: I’ve had experience with many types of animals since I was little. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats of all ages. I also have experience taking care of rodents. I’m a stay at home mom as of right now to a little boy, so I will have all the time in the world to take care of your pets. I would have to work it around his nap schedule but that won’t be a problem at all. While I don’t have a fenced in yard, I can take any animal in my care for walks if it’s needed. I also have a loving cat named Ali to keep any animal that’s with us company.
“Excellent services with Sarah and her Husband. They gave our dog (a 70lbs) German Shepherd mix beyond the best care in their home. Loved their flexible schedule and availability. Sarah, sent me multiple photos and constant updates on our girl. I would highly recommend their services for boarding and dog walking. Thank you again Sarah.”
“Abigail and her family have been amazing with my 2 girls! She is super communicative and made sure she knew everything about the girls before the start date. The girls always come home happy and tired, and Abigail always sends pictures of all the fun they have. Highly recommend!”
“Heidi is a wonderful pet sitter. Our old dog was treated very well during our week of traveling. She sent us photos and updates on a daily basis which was very comforting for us. Thank you Heidi, look forward to bringing our dog the next time.”
“Karen did an amazing job keeping up with us through photos about his walks, down time and eating while at Karen's home. Asher was fed our food and Karen stayed with our schedule for him. Karen likes dogs and asked me questions prior to sitting Asher. I would hire Kkaren again, she did a superb job with him and Asher looked happy at pick up..”
“Alex did a phenomenal job from drop off to pick up, he was super flexible and thorough. Our dog stayed with Alex over the weekend and we gave him a detailed list of our preferences. He went above and beyond by sending update photos of our dog multiple times during the day as well as sent us texts to keep us up to date. Just phenomenal! Thank you Alex.”
“Home away from home! Thanks to Kylene for providing such loving and comfortable care for our guy while we were out of town. Not only did we stay in close contact, but Kylene accommodated our drop off and pick up needs. Our guy needs meds and gentle handling and Kylene ensured he was well cared for. No doubt we will rely on Kylene’s services in the future! Love her!”
“Jessica sent video and photo updates regularly of my puppy acclimating and having fun, so I was able to enjoy my vacation without worry. Her own dog was very tolerant of my pup’s antics while letting him lounge around with him. An overall great experience!”
“One of the best sitters we’ve had. Our dogs really enjoyed being in her home. I received many pictures and videos of them having a blast. 100% recommend booking her”
“Danielle is absolutely amazing! She took care of my puppy for 5 days. She followed all of the care instructions and would communicate throughout the days. When I meet her I knew my puppy was in great hands. Highly recommend Danielle for dog boarding and grooming!”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care that Olivia and her husband provided for my dog. Olivia went seriously above and beyond for Kato during his stay (which was a last minute booking for Christmas too). Kato is a bigger, young bully, so he’s not always the easiest to handle. Olivia handled him with ease and treated him like her own family pet. I received pictures, they went on hikes and car rides, etc (above and beyond like I said) 💕💕 I’m so glad we found Olivia. I’ve had some bad experiences with pet sitters, but I had no anxiety or worries during this stay and that’s priceless. I would 100% recommend Olivia and her husband to everyone.”
“Amy was great with Luna. Every picture that she sent Luna looked very relaxed and happy. It’s not often you find someone who wants to take care of your dog the way you do. It made our vacation so much better knowing that our little fur baby was taken care of. I would definitely use Amy again and recommend her to anyone who’s looking for someone you can trust to take care of your fur baby like you would!”
“Amanda made Buddy feel right at home in the first minute! We were leaving him for the first time in months and she quickly put us at ease. In a short few hours, she sent pics and it seemed like he was feeling right at home. We are making plans for another stay soon. Thanks, Amanda, tell the girls he'll be back soon.”

Marcia was absolutely amazing with our puppy, Biscuit! We were away on a family vacation in Topsail, and unfortunately our rental didn’t allow puppies, so leaving my baby boy behind was definitely hard for me. Marcia made me feel so much better the entire time. She was extremely communicative, sent me lots of pictures and updates, and even FaceTimed me when her internet was down so I could still see Biscuit! 🥹❤️ It meant so much to know he was being loved and well taken care of while we were away. I felt completely comfortable having him with her and would absolutely recommend Marcia to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their fur baby. Thank you so much, Marcia! 🐾❤️
This was my first time using Rover and Lynn was amazing? She was very thorough from our first introductory meeting. While I was away she sent updates and pictures to let me know Tank was doing well. I just knew Tank was well taken care of. I hope the next time I need a sitter that she is an available. Highly recommend!

Literally the best duo, they are our go to when it comes to dog sitting. Our dogs always look so happy with them and come back looking like they had a blast haha. They go above and beyond and truly dedicate themselves to ensuring your pets are happy and healthy while under their care. Will definitely be booking again and again !
Talia was amazing with my two dogs (a Labrador Retriever and a Shih Tzu)! From the very beginning, she was great at communicating and even arranged a meet-and-greet so everyone felt comfortable. This was actually my dogs first time being watched at someone else’s house, anytime we are out of town they are cared for at home our home with some friends watching them so I was a little nervous at first using Rover for the first time but Talia made the whole experience so easy and stress-free. She kept me updated throughout the week with pictures and messages, which was really great!My dogs had an absolute amazing time playing with her dog, and it was clear they felt right at home. You can really tell she loves and cares for the pets she watches. My Shih Tzu got sick during the stay and she personally made some rice and chicken to make sure she gets better which she didn’t have to do but that shows you what type of person Talia is!!
Danielle was wonderful. Great communicator, and made it easy for us to enjoy our vacation in Mexico while Molly our Boxer was with Danielle and her family having fun. It took the worry away for me, thank you so much. Danielle is awesome and will use her again if timing is right.

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.
100% of sitters in Tarawa Terrace 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 Tarawa Terrace 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 Tarawa Terrace.
<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 Tarawa Terrace 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.
