“Elizabeth and her husband are the best! My puppy loves going to their house and playing with their dogs and cat. She comes home exhausted from playing all day! I’m so grateful to know that she’s having fun and not cramped in her kennel all day while I’m at work. Receiving pictures and videos throughout the day is an added bonus. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for quality care for their pet!”

About: Amo a las mascotas sobretodo los perros, sé que no son niños pero los trato tal cual respetuosa y cuidadora, me he criado con una mascota en casa desde mi infancia, mi primera mascota era un Rottweiler llamada Danger, ella era una belleza de perro, era grande e imponente, mi hermano y yo la entrenamos al punto que salía a caminar sin leash en la calle, acataba todas las ordenes que le dabamos, era muy inteligente. Al pasar de los años cuando conocí a mi esposo, el ya tenía un perro, era un poodle llamado Blacky el se convirtió rápidamente en mi bebe el no tenía muchos habitos de entrenamiento y con el pasar del tiempo le fui enseñando cosas básicas, como sentarse, dar la pata y caminar al lado sin que saliera corriendo sin leash, el falleció hace un par de años, su perdida fue muy dura de verdad. Y no hemos tenido más perros por los momentos, pero amigos y vecinos me han dado sus perros con lo ojos cerrados porque saben que los cuido muy bien, soy muy respetuosa y cariñosa, lo más importantes es que siempre busco de enseñarle algún truco, en mis fotos podrán ver algunos perros que he tenido cuidando varios dias, tengo a Toby que aparece en mi foto de perfil parecido a mi perro Blacky a Mila una cachorra hermosa, y luna una viejita hermosa. me gusta jugar con ellos y darle mucho amor. 🐕🦺Tener una mascota es mucha responsabilidad amor y paciencia. Estoy comenzando en esta app Rover formalmente y me gustaría cuidar a tu peludito. 🤗🐶 Actualmente trabajo por mi cuenta y estoy la gran parte de las veces en casa. Podría usar una parte de mi tiempo para visitar a tu mascota y recargar las energía con ella. Tengo un jardín súper grande y tengo bastante espacio para jugar con el o ella. Tambien en la urbanización puedo darle varias vueltas y conozcan la zona
“Dana was the best! She was flexible with our schedule and sent multiple updates throughout the day. Milo had a great day playing in her backyard with the other dogs she had and came home tired and happy!!”

About: I’ve been working with dogs for 6 years, but they’ve been my biggest passion since I was little. I have a certification in dog training, have taken a first aid class, and have experience with all kinds of pups! Dogs are my full-time job, which means your pup gets all of my time and attention! My day revolves around the care of my furr-ends! I have a fenced in yard and have a room in my home dedicated to the care of my clients! I have large comfy kennel spaces for each of my guests but if your pup happens to be social and non-destructive I would allow them to free-roam!
“I can safely say that out of all, Summer stood out the best. She was polite, timely and easy to work with. Highly recommend here and will absolutely use her services if we are in the area again!!!”

About: I am a total dog lover! My husband and I rescued our dog Roscoe almost 6 years ago. He is one of the most spoiled dogs I know and is a huge mama’s boy. We enjoy hiking together, and going on walks and for runs along the local greenways in Charlotte and in the neighborhood. He enjoys having other dogs to play with and we pet sit for a few friends and neighbors when they go on vacation, having their dog come and spend time in our home. They always get excited when I pick them up and go home tired from all our walks and outdoor play in our fenced in yard. I send pictures and updates daily. We love spending time playing with other dogs, especially Roscoe! I’m a special education teacher and my husband works in the restaurant business, so he’s home most days and I’m home after school and evenings. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly, playful dog to keep your fur baby active. We are happy to crate your dog when we are not here/at night if this is what they’re used to. Otherwise, we block the stairs off when we need to leave with Roscoe upstairs and your pet downstairs.
“Sheila was awesome with my dog Walter. She was very patient and eager to learn about him and his quirks. She was very patient and gave Walter time to acclimate to the environment slowly. I would definitely recommend her to care for your pup!!”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have always been an animal lover. I have 2 dogs myself. I also have 2 years of experience training dogs and have been fostering dogs with Mecklenburg County Animal Care and Control for 2 years. I can train and care for puppies, or take care of seniors. Im comfortable giving pills to dogs as well. I work a small gig teaching dance to kids in their daycares. I may be away from your home for 2 hours max but will be at your home full-time the rest of the time, able to care and play with your pup(s) 24/7, potty breaks or walks every 2-4 hours. I'm here for whatever your furry family needs! Thanks for considering me! I'm very flexible to whatever your fur animal(s) needs are. I am a clean orderly person, respectful of your space and bring a sensitive empathetic approach to my animal care. I will give regular updates on how your dog is doing!

“Albina has been an absolute delight to have as a sitter for our mini shepherd. She and her family are attentive to our dog's well-being and sends over pictures and texts to confirm our baby is having a good time. Will stick with Albina as long as she will have us.”

About: What sets me apart is the way I care for each dog as an individual, not just as a routine task. I grew up with dogs and have hands-on experience raising and caring for two of my own, so I understand their behavior, needs, and how to make them feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with puppies and know how important consistency, patience, and structure are at that stage. While I’m not a professional trainer, I follow owners’ routines closely and reinforce good habits, whether it’s basic commands, potty routines, or leash manners. I also pay close attention to each dog’s personality—whether they are energetic, shy, or need a calm environment—and adjust my care to match. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping owners updated so you always feel confident your dog is in good hands. My goal is simple: your dog feels safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day, including regular walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’m able to follow your dog’s usual routine closely—feeding times, bathroom breaks, and any specific needs—without long gaps or rushing. Because I’m home most of the time, your dog won’t be left alone for extended periods and will have consistent care, supervision, and companionship. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and secure environment where your dog can feel comfortable and relaxed. I carefully follow all instructions you provide—feeding schedules, medications, routines, and any special needs—so your pet’s care stays consistent. I’m attentive to behavior and surroundings at all times, whether we’re at home or on a walk, to ensure your dog stays safe. I don’t take unnecessary risks, avoid unsafe situations, and always prioritize your dog’s well-being. You can trust that your pet will be treated with patience, kindness, and genuine care, just like my own.
About: I have two male dachshunds. I have had the. since they were puppies. I had three, but my oldest passed away on Dec. 16, 2025. He was 13 years old and I have had him since I was 21 years old. My second oldest is 12 years old and the youngest is 4 years old. The dogs are allowed on furniture. We have ramps to help them onto the couch and they have a nice ramp up to a comfy window bed area. Our dogs love sleeping there and looking out the window. I am used to dogs with health issues. My oldest dog, Odie, had a very sensitive stomach and had to have a strict diet or he got pancreatitis. Our youngest has had back surgery and was paralyzed and slowly regained mobility. Taking care of dogs with health issues is not a problem for me. When booking with me. Let me know about your pets personality. Be specific with eating schedule. We have a big backyard that is perfect for exploring and running around. When the dogs get hot, we have a small pool that my dog Oscar loves to jump in to cool off. I am 35 years old and live with my husband, 40 years old. We have 2 kids. I taught Elementary School for 12 years and beginning 2026 resigned to stay home with my youngest. I will be home all day to make sure your dog is loved on and gets plenty of outside time. My dogs have a ramp leading up to the window where they also sleep on a platform. The perfect spot for small dogs to look out the window and sleep. I have 5 dog beds. Plenty to pick from. I do allow dogs on the couch. If it's okay with you. We have a BIG backyard and your dog will get lots of loves at my house. We are big dog lovers. I live with my husband and two children. I have a 6 year old and a 3 year old who are gentle with dogs. My 6 year old actually has her own dog. The youngest dachshund, Jack, is hers. They have a great bond and he always sleeps in her bed at night. Oscar likes to sleep in our bed.
About: I am retired, have trained and shown dogs for over fifty years, live in a condo with one sheltie and one cat. I like to sit ONE dog at a time so it can have special one on one attention. Special arrangements can be made with two dogs that are from the same family. My floors are tile and I sterilize them between visits. I do NOT have a fenced yard but we have a 20 x 80 fenced dog run right outside my back door and we walk every two to three hours and once during the night. Since I am retired, I can be with your dog 24/7 with small exceptions. The dogs are allowed on the furniture and in the bed. I do insist that dogs be house trained and crate trained since we feed in crates or crate them if I have to be away. If you want personal care and attention for your dog, we would love to supply that service. We do NOT do meet and greets. We find that those brief encounters simply put stress on my dogs and yours. I take about an hour when a dog has arrived to acclimate him safely and comfortably. I only care for small dogs, under 30 pounds, and no puppies. Since I am retired, my schedule is pretty much staying around the house. There are no children and things are pretty quiet most of the time.

“Tina has been great with our dogs. She was very helpful and responsive in answering our questions prior to the booking. She is a very caring dog lover and asked detailed questions in getting to know our dogs and their specific needs. Her house is very clean and welcoming. Our dogs had a great time!”

About: Going away on vacation and need someone to care for your fur baby? 🐾❤️ I’d be happy to help! I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life and have experience providing boarding, pet care, and light grooming for my furry friends. I currently have a shitzu of my own who is sweet, playful, and always excited to have a new friend around! I do have kids, and they absolutely love animals and are always eager to help welcome a new pet guest. They’re gentle, caring, and know how to treat our furry visitors with lots of love and attention. 🐶🐱 We’d love the opportunity to care for your baby while you’re away! I can provide boarding as well as drop-in visits, depending on what works best for you and your pet. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

The other works occasionally and is there when needed. weekends we a both available. We live on a dead end so not many cars pass by. We also have 1 senior dog who is small and tranquil. There is lots of room in the house for dogs to have plenty of space if they would like.
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was in high school, from daily walks to overnight stays, so caring for dogs has been a part of my life for years. I also have an almost 2-year-old doodle of my own, so I know firsthand how much energy, attention, playtime, and patience a young dog can need! One of the biggest perks I offer is that I work from home, which means your pup gets plenty of company throughout the day rather than being left alone for hours. I’m happy to keep them active with walks and playtime, while also giving them plenty of attention, cuddles, and downtime. I treat every dog like they’re my own and want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pup is happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have used Rover for a while on the other end (dropping my pup, Blue, at family homes) so know the importance of lots of photos and videos while you are away! Since I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to be available for bathroom breaks, playtime, walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I currently take my own dog on at least three walks a day around our neighborhood, so your pup is welcome to join us! I also make time throughout the day for play, cuddles, and breaks from work. I’m happy to keep your dog’s normal routine as consistent as possible, whether that means extra walks, more playtime, or some quiet time and cuddles. I have a large yard where dogs can safely get outside, stretch their legs, and enjoy some playtime. Since I work from home, I’m also around throughout the day to keep an eye on them and make sure they’re comfortable and safe. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I treat every dog in my care like my own. I’m attentive to their needs, keep their routines as consistent as possible, and make sure they get plenty of supervision, exercise, and attention while they’re with me

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Unionville commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 .
