“Toni was absolutely amazing. Bailey loved her and we received consistent updates, pictures and videos. Toni's communication is out of this world. I would ask Toni to watch our family member anytime. You can book with complete confidence.”
“Ruby did great with Jharasen & her fur babies. It was our first time leaving her and she was still recovering from being fixed, but we were updated about how she was doing regularly. Ruby seems to have enjoyed her weekend away!”
“Madison was absolutely fantastic. Our 2 dogs were well taken care of with her and her husband and their pup as well. We got so many updates and pictures and felt so comfortable being away.”
“They were great very professional and reasonable. They also send pictures and videos and respond back very fast. Had a great experience with them my dog didn’t want to come back home.”
“Mary Ellen took excellent care of Ollie, and he had fun with her pup, Ellie. Her enclosed yard space is perfect for pups and we felt very safe leaving him there. We will be back, for sure!”
“I booked this boarding stay last-minute, after our initial pet care plan fell through, but it really couldn’t have worked out better! Valentine and her family were so great with my pup, Rocky. They kept her safe and busy while my husband and I participated in a friend’s wedding festivities. I felt confident leaving Rocky with Valentine, and I would definitely book again if ever back in the area. She’s caring and knows what she’s doing with animals, for sure.”
About: 25 years of heartfelt experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages, I bring genuine love and expert knowledge to every furry friend. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a wise senior cat, or anything in between, my deep understanding ensures compassionate, personalized care that nurtures their health and happiness. Every pet is treated like family, making their well-being and joy my top priority. Extremely flexible schedule, I am willing to travel, work remotely, willing to respond quickly, living on 1.5 acres, here to help with your pet needs. I have plenty of space to walk the dogs, a dog runner, crate, and one female cat named Bubbles. Bubbles will most likely stay in the basement where she thrives in her own space.
“Our Charlie had THE best time with Miriam and Oliver. I honestly think he is depressed now that he's home with us. We received daily pictures of him running around outside with his new buddy and he always looked so happy. He was pooped when he got home, too. Miriam was super sweet when we had to add on an extra two days to Charlie's stay at the last minute. This was the first time our dog stayed with someone other than family and I felt fortunate to find such a great place for him to be while we were away. We will definitely call Miriam again in the future! Leaving your pet with her is much better than some boarding facility.”
“My pup had a really great time & made new friends. We got all kinds of pics which put any concerns at ease. Very communicative & responsive. Would recommend jiji for your pets stay.”
About: I had a dog when I was younger and I loved him and taught him tricks. I also have 7 cats who I love so much. I work during the week. I have a big yard, however it's not fenced in. I could take your dog out on a leash so they are safe from other animals and the road. I also live in walking distance to the Harmony Trail in Shelby, NC.
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for pets, I bring a deep passion and commitment to every animal I look after. I previously owned and operated a pet sitting business and have extensive experience caring for special needs pets, including blind and handicapped dogs. I've also volunteered with the Humane Society and local animal shelters for years doing transport and fostering dogs further enriching my understanding of animal care. I have excellent references from the directors and board members of the shelters where I volunteered. I am compassionate, dependable, and treat every pet as if they were my own. You can trust that your furry family member will be in loving, capable hands I am available to walk dogs or do visits every day or evening . I am also available for boarding up to two dogs at my House. I have a fenced in yard and have extra wiring around the bottom for small dogs. I never let pets in the back yard without standing out there with them. I have 4 friendly dogs and a cat who thinks he’s a dog.
About: I have always grown up with animals and have been a dependable fur-baby sitter! I watch my neighbors animals, (even fish) have stayed overnight in homes to watch animals. I am also comfortable with senior/puppy care as well as bath time & feeding routines. I am currently full time with my career & do petsitting on the side. I usually have flexible availability in my schedule & can be needed for last minutes as well! Im currently available for M-Fri (times can vary so we can discuss further for each booking to see if it’s a good fit!) If you need weekend availability please let me know & I am usually available! I can also provide a work schedule so we can figure out the perfect time for me to watch your animal! (If you are looking for a boarding service) I have 2 VERY friendly puppies (they are large, pit-bull & great dane) & 2 friendly cats who will offer company to your fur baby if they are well behaved with other cats/dogs! If they prefer to be alone, I can watch them in the comfort of your home! We have plenty of yard space & plenty of activities & toys to play with if you choose to board them with me. We have my dogs on an invisible fence at this time, so our yard is not completely fenced in.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
94% of sitters in Westminster 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 Westminster 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 Westminster.
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 Westminster. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Westminster 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.
