“Katherine and Mark were wonderful they were truly interested in making my dogs and us feel comfortable Katherine kept in touch every day sending pictures of are dogs having so much fun We would definitely recommend them to anyone”
“Judith has a beautiful home with a big back yard - perfect set up for pups. She is very knowledgeable about dogs, and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care. Thank you Judith!”
“Maria was amazing with our one year old toy poodle Bruno for two weeks and we’re so grateful! She stayed on top of his whole routine, kept up with his eating and walk schedule perfectly, and somehow even got him to actually sleep in his new bed (which he usually wanders off from constantly!). She sent us updates, photos, and videos the whole time, which we loved and it made being away so much easier. Maria and her daughter were the sweetest with our little boy Bruno, you could tell he felt right at home and was totally spoiled with love. He came back happy and relaxed. We’d book her again without needing to think twice when we need support. Your dog or pup couldn’t be in better hands!”
“April and Chris were amazing with Nala! We loved the constant communication while we were on vacation and knew that she was in good hands! Her dogs were amazing with Nala and she loved playing with them. We will definitely use them again!”
“I hesitate to write a review because Chris is a gem and we don’t want him to get too busy so that he’s available when we need him! Haha. We did a meet and greet before our official first visit to get to know each other and the pups! Wonderful personality, enjoy him, his wife, and his sweet pups! Really grateful we found someone who cares about our senior boy and treats him so well. We know he can be a handful due to his age and quirks but very fortunate to find Chris who genuinely cares about his well-being. We know he’s in great hands.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Chasalen. Our dog had a nervous belly for most of our trip, and she was incredibly attentive, communicative, and compassionate the entire time. She went above and beyond - trying a different diet for the pooch, keeping us updated, and making sure our pooch felt loved and comforted. We are so grateful for the amazing care she provided and would absolutely trust her again!”
“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!”
“Brenda was amazing!! This was the first time my dog has ever been apart from us so she was so nervous. Ms. Brenda and her daughter made our June feel so comfortable. I loved the picture updates and they played well with her. I am definitely booking again”
“Madison took in my 1/4 trained teenager puppy, Maybelline, on last minute notice. Boarding is such a cold word. Madison treated Mabel as her own, with walks, playtimes, exercise, mandatory nap-naps, socialization, traffic! Ten out of ten. Part of the pack. The best review I can give is that ive already booked her again.”
“Such amazing communication! Kaylee showed so much love to Moose during his stay with her. She was so accommodating and really went above and beyond! It was so nice to know that Moose was in good hands for the time I couldn't have him with me.”
“Janet provided wonderful care of my senior dog, a nearly fifteen-year-old chiweenie, sending regular photos and updates and accommodating his somewhat odd diet. Highly recommend!”
“Victoria was very friendly, and loving towards my dog! She sent me multiple updates throughout her stay and I loved knowing Roxy was having fun and very well taken cared of! Most definitely will be booking with her again!”
“Excellent pet sitting experience! Genuinely loved our dog and sent pictures throughout the vacation. We returned home to a happy dog, and we will definitely be booking again!”
“Evgeniia recently took care of my beloved dog, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. She is a true animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for dogs. I highly recommend Evgeniia to anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog sitter.”
“Lara was great!! We loved the daily pictures and updates, the fun extras (trip to the park and frozen lick mat, to name a few), and what a sweet playmate her dog Brady was for our girl. Thankful for Lara and hope she can keep Betsy again!”
“Natalie and her husband have taken care of Isis now two different times. Both times you can tell she was well taken care of, enjoyed her stay, and had a lot love giving to her. Thanks Natalie!”
About: Hello! My name is Alison, I am 43 years old and have had dogs and cats all my life. I currently have two cats (15 and 18 yrs old) and two pups (2 and 4 yrs old) of my own. They are my absolute world! My pups are high energy, so I am very familiar on how to burn energy!! I am available for animals of all ages. I am full of energy myself, so I will be able to provide playtime, walks, cuddles, food, and medicines if required! I am more than happy to meet you and spend time with you and your babies before you decide on me, so you feel extremely comfortable with who is taking care of your fur babies! I am currently not working, so I have plenty of time to spend caring for your babies as I would care for my own :) I am happy to take them for walks, play ball, or anything else they love to do! I will care for your pets exactly per your instructions. Whether it’s taking them for walks, play time, etc. I will always make sure to leave your space just as I found it!
“Christina did an incredible job again with Keller. She sent me photos throughout the week of all her fun adventures. She made lots of friends with the other animals she was watching. Keller has truly formed a bond with Christina and loves her time spent at the house. There was a small mishap resulting in a scrape on Kellers face. But Christina kept me updated and kept the wound clean and ensured it was healing. I highly recommend booking with Christina.”
“I am so grateful to have found you Jessica. You were our first dogs sitter and we had a great experience. Thank you for all the attentions, long walks, photos and send me texts during those days, I really appreciate it. You made my nervousness go away from the first day. Defenitely in the future you'll be my first option.”

Here’s a polished version that keeps it warm and genuine: Such a kind and genuine host! We feel truly blessed to have someone like her take care of our baby, Sasha. Sasha always feels safe, comfortable, and secure with her, which gives us so much peace of mind. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Sasha and treating her with so much love. We truly appreciate you and look forward to having Sasha stay with you again!
This was the first time we had boarded our 7 month old puppy with Heather. She did a great job and followed our instructions for her care. Heather was also very accommodating and sent us daily messages on how Sadie was doing. When we returned, Sadie was happy but very tired. She had obviously had fun playing with Heather's two small dogs. We will be using Heather again in the near future and highly recommend her.
We had such a positive experience with Monie! Our dog stayed with her, and it was clear that he felt safe and comfortable in her care. She sent us daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, and she was always very responsive whenever we reached out. We really appreciated the care and attention she gave our dog and would definitely feel comfortable having him stay with her again!
Brandi was amazing. We are so happy we found her. With the new move and last minute booking we wanted someone nearby. She was awesome with all the pictures and updates and so accommodating with last minute changes. Hope we can have lLegend visit in the future :)

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 .
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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
