“Annie is wonderful! I can tell our dog, Atticus, loves being there because he was excited and ran to her front door when I dropped him off for his second stay! Annie and Grandma Grace were welcoming and very kind. They went the extra mile to make Atticus feel at home and part of their family during his stay. Annie always sent messages and pictures of Atticus to help us know that he was happy and having fun. She even helped Atticus write a cute Mother's Day card and letter :) Annie is the first person I've felt 100% comfortable leaving Atticus with and will definitely have him visit again!”
“Communication was impeccable. I appreciate the consistency of the detailed information provided daily. I had zero worries while on my trip out of the country. I knew my dog was in the perfect care with a family whom is loving and caring. Highly recommend. I would definitely leave my Ocean in Kayla’s care again.”

“Yevheniia did an amazing job looking after my dog when I was out of the country for two weeks. She’s very kind, courteous and responsive. I got a ton of photos and updates on my pet while I was away which put me at ease. I will definitely request her again!”
“Emme received excellent care with Anne; I enjoyed meeting her, and felt she was prepared and organized to take care of Emme. Her huge fenced yard is a plus. I look forward to Emme having another visit soon.”

“Sarah took great care of my dog, Charlie! She gave him his medicine and made sure her home was compatible with his needs (senior citizen pup)! When he had tummy problems, she helped fix calm his stomach and added on a much needed bath for him. Appreciate Sarah and her family’s care of my pup!”
“Monica and her family took care of Loki like he was their own pet. They paid attention to every little detail, kept us updated with frequent messages and photos, and made sure we always knew how he was doing. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Loki was in such safe and caring hands. We really appreciate how well they looked after him and would definitely recommend Monica!”
“Kayla and her family were absolutely incredible! They cared for both of my pups as if they were their own, sending daily photos and thoughtful updates that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I was able to truly relax on vacation knowing my dogs were happy, safe, and loved. Her children were so sweet and attentive, and it was clear my pups instantly bonded with the whole family—they really found their “home away from home.” If you want someone trustworthy, warm, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, Kayla is the perfect choice. I would recommend her 100% for anyone looking for the best dog sitter out there!”

She made sure Mochi was having lots of fun with other dogs in the house while also keeping an eye to make sure everyone was getting along well with each other. All the pictures and updates she sent showed love and fun that Mochi was thoroughly enjoying. I would definitely seek to return in the future to have Mochi stay with Norma and her lovely dogs. Thank you!”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 Unionville 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 Unionville 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 Unionville.
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 Unionville. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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 Unionville 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.
