“Another great experience for my dog Jackson! Mafe kept him safe and happy, also took tons of pictures so I didn’t worry too much. Will be booking with her every time I leave town 👍🏾👍🏾”
“Ashley and family were great! If I could give her 10 stars I would. We planned a weekend in Rocky Mount and booked boarding for our dog at a local boarding place. We dropped her off and before we left they let us know she was too anxious and would not be able to tolerate the whole weekend there. We tried one other boarding facility and they had a similar set up so I knew she wouldn't be able to stay there either. I found Ashley on rover and messaged her about booking for the weekend last minute. Our dog is very anxious around other dogs which becomes aggression because she gets so worked up. Ashley was able to keep her for the weekend and keep her separated from their other dogs in the home. I was very relieved to know she was safe and taken care and that the other dogs in the home were safe too. When we arrive Harley went right in with them and was happy when we picked her up! They were very understanding and accommodated us so we did not have to cancel our trip last minute. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I will definitely be booking with Ashley any time we are in the area.”
“This was the perfect boarding experience from beginning to end. The level of care, professionalism, and attention to detail was exceptional. It was clear right away that my pet was in safe, capable, and genuinely caring hands. Everything was handled exactly the way I hoped it would be. Communication was excellent, updates were reassuring, and every detail was managed with care. The environment felt safe, clean, organized, and welcoming. Most importantly, my pet was comfortable, well cared for, and treated with real kindness and patience. What stood out most was the boarder’s attitude. They were dependable, thoughtful, attentive, and clearly take pride in what they do. It is rare to find someone who combines professionalism with such a warm and personal touch. If you are looking for the ideal boarding service, this is it. Trustworthy, responsive, caring, and truly top-tier in every way. I would absolutely use this service again and highly recommend it to anyone who wants real peace of mind when leaving their pet in someone else’s care”
“I absolutely loved having Eris stay with her! I would definitely choose her again. She has a wonderful amount of space for the dogs to play and feel comfortable. She followed all of our instructions regarding Eris’s food and medication, which gave us so much peace of mind. I also loved seeing how well her dog and Eris got along.they became great friends! 🥰 I highly recommend her and would definitely trust her with Eris again!”
“Rob was great with our girls. This was an acclimation visit to familiarize. This family is very understanding of special needs & requests. Our pups were well taken care of. We believe we have found our care team.”
“This is my first time boarding our new dog, Eddie . Summer made the experience so much better than I could’ve hoped for. She invited Eddie into her home and treated her just like one of her family members. She was experienced in providing Eddie’s food and supplements. She was flexible in allowing my drop off time, which really helped given my strange schedule. She updated me daily with pictures, which really helped put my mind at ease. Eddie had such a great time playing with her son and enjoying her walks. She probably would’ve stayed there had I not forced her back into the car. I would recommend Summer to anybody wishing to go away with peace of mind that their pup is gonna be very well taken care of.”
“Shekenia is amazing. My babies love her and they were well taken care of. The consistent updates and pictures were awesome. Thank you so much for taking care of my babies as if they were your own.”
“Monica and her husband were the absolute best!! During our meet and greet I immediately felt comfortable with them. I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me. My fur baby did not seem stressed or uncared for when I picked him up. If you want a good home for your fur baby and piece of mind while you are away, I would definitely recommend Monica. You will not regret your choice.”
“Randi, took great care of my pet while I was away. I will recommend her to anyone. She picked him up and dropped him off. I love all the updates and pictures she sent. She was awesome! 👏”
“Ms. Karin was absolutely amazing with my new puppy!!!! She went above and beyond with my little one!!!!! Clean home, big backyard, amazing communication. "Noodle was very well taken care of!!!!! Don't choose anyone else if she's available!!!!”
About: Hi! I’m a proud fur mama to five dogs and caretaker of 17 farm animals, so animals are literally my everyday life. I’ve spent years feeding, exercising, and making sure animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to get to know each one so they feel at home. Whether your pup loves to play, needs a calm companion or just wants belly rubs, I’m happy to provide personalized care and lots of love. I can also send photo and video updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I’m a stay at home wife, homemaker. Taking care of my animals is my daily job. Feeding, bathroom breaks and playing occurs all day long! We live on 1 and a half acres, unfenced. My dogs are trained with no fence. But we do have a 200 square foot fenced in area we call the doggy playpen outside for dogs! Of course on walks leashes are used.
“I will definitely be booking with James again. This was our furbaby first time away from us and she did absolute amazing wit James. Thank you for taking care of her, the updates & care meant everything to us & we appreciate you.”
“Gail is absolutely the best sitter anyone could want. She is very understanding and patient with the dogs. She helped my puppy with leash training. She also keeps you updated on how the puppy/dog is doing. I don’t know of anyone else I would trust my puppy with. She shows you the environment that the puppy/dog will have. You don’t just drop them off at the front door. Totally top notch and very professional.”
About: All animals will be well taken care of and treated as if they are my own. I even have some experience with animals needing medications. I am currently a part time college student but my school schedule allows alot of flexibility on most days. I tend to be free in the afternoons on multiple days. I am also free for mornings on weekends most of the time. Animals are allowed to free roam in my apartment. I have 2 friendly cats that love to meet new friends. I can crate pets if need be.
“LOVED the care that Flora gave to my Yorkie - she provided excellent care, plenty of photos/videos to keep me updated, and I loved meeting her family as well. Will definitely be contacting her again!”
About: I have always had a pet growing up. I used to have cats when I was little and then eventually turned to dogs. Currently back at home I have three dogs that I love so so so much. Here in Greenville I share custody of a dog, Saint, with my boyfriend. I love to walk so that is no problem for me when it comes to walking dogs. I also worked as an assistant for almost two years where one of my main priorities was taking care of her pitty :) I currently work part time so my availability is pretty open! I spend a lot of my time outside on walks, so it only makes sense that I open the door to including pets on my walk. I do stay in an apartment so I don't have yard space for pets, but I am willing to drive to dog parks or walking trails. I also don't mind going to other peoples home to care for their animals.
“Brooke was amazing with our pup! She sent tons of pictures and updates and even slept with him so he wouldn't feel alone. She went above and beyond, even preparing his food specially so he would eat and supplying lots of treats. All in all, our pup had a blast with Brooke and her pups, and we will definitely be using her again!”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Tarboro 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 Tarboro.
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.
You and your Tarboro sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

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.
