“This was our first time using Rover. We contacted Anna and asked to meet her before boarding with her. She met us at a park and our boy took to her immediately. While we were away, he was well take care of and spoiled rotten (we didn’t expect anything less). Anna sent us updates with pictures, which we appreciated greatly. Thanks to Anna, we were able to enjoy our vacation and not worry about Caesar. We will definitely be booking with her again!!”
“Abby was able to take our dog at the last minute and she picked up and dropped off Simon on time. She clearly cares for the dog, sends update and asks questions when seeing something unusual. Will book with her again.”
“Britteny was great and Fiona loved her stay. I couldn't of asked for a better experience. Britteny made it feel like a second home for Fiona and updated me daily with pics and texts.”
“"Karla is heaven-sent! Leaving my dog with her gave me total peace of mind the entire time I was away. She sent daily updates, cute photos, and videos that made my day. We will definitely rebook with her.”
“Sarah & Josiah are great! They are SO nice and take such great care of my little fur ball. Such a huge sense of relief knowing he’s in good hands when he can’t come along.”
“Vanessa and her family took great care of our dog. She provided pictures and updates and responds quickly to txt messages. The backyard is fenced. Very pleasant experience! Would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, safe environment for pet care!! 🐾🐾 NL”
“Scott and his family always take such good care of our dog. They send lots of pics and videos of her playing. She loves getting to go see all the kids and play with them.”
“Agus was great. He took care of our high energy lab for 7 days while we were traveling. He sent regular updates and assured us all was well. We'd definitely book with Agus again and recommend him to our friends.”
“Miyu is excellent! I highly recommend. She's kind and consistently expressed care and attention to my dog. I know my dog was well cared for and we look forward to booking her in the future.”
“We had a great experience! They were responsive, easy to communicate with, and very accommodating. Our golden pup had a wonderful time. We really appreciated the photo updates without having to ask — it gave us peace of mind.”
“Tracy is very patient and caring with my dog. She took good care of her even though it was raining the whole weekend. She followed my instructions on feeding and walking her, and sent me a lot of pictures throughout the stay. My dog definitely had a great time with her!”
“Lovely family - I never worried about my dog Cooper at any time. I got pictures of Cooper relaxed and happy. Yara and Angel were very knowledgeable about dogs and very complimentary about my Cooper. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST THANK YOU!!!!!”
“She took amazing care of my dog over the span of two days, sent me pictures regularly of her, and I could tell give her plenty of love. When I dropped her off the bed in her kennel was pretty ripped up and the stuffing was everywhere. When I got it back, she had sewn it shut and put all the stuffing back in. Going above and beyond would be an understatement. Highly recommend.”
“Grace is the best dog sitter! She loves on Baru as if he was her own dog. I have never felt more comfortable leaving my dog with someone. He gets to play and cuddle and is always happy to be with her.”
“Our dog had such a good time with Amy! There was a fenced in yard and a nice screen porch for her to chill in. Any is clearly an expert and managed our dog’s issues so that there wasn’t conflict with the other dogs. Amy and her mom are both sweethearts and Amy sent the sweetest pup-dates! It’s clear that both Amy and her kids love dogs and that this house is a safe and fun space for dogs to be in. We will absolutely use her again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Camila & Lino! They were incredibly attentive and detail-oriented during our meet and greet, which left me with confidence that Story would be happy and well-cared for during her stay. They were also super communicative and helpful when or travel plans changed. Thanks again Camila & Lino!”
“Megan always makes Hopie Joy feel so at home and updates me often on how she is doing. I was worried Hopie would not adjust to being in a crate at night but she has been a happy girl! Megan is super sweet with the pups. Definitely recommend”
“Naotake and his wife, Hitoko, did a fabulous job watching Penny Friday afternoon-Monday morning while I was out of town. I couldn't be happier with the care they provided and never once questioned their competency or intentions. From finding them on Rover to meeting in person and concluding the sit, they had perfect communication. They answered all of my questions (and vice versa), eased my anxieties, and provided a plethora of information about their experiences caring for pets. I met them in person prior to the sit and they were very warm and welcoming. I thoroughly enjoyed/appreciated getting to know them and building a relationship prior to the sit. They were very sweet, accommodating, and passionate about the work they do. During the sit, the responded promptly to my messages and sent tons of videos/photos of Penny. They also sent multiple daily (morning & night) updates about how she was doing, what they had planned for the day, and any questions they had. Naotake and Hitoko went above and beyond, taking Penny on long walks, to the dog park, and in the car for fun rides around town. Considering that Penny has occasional health issues, can be reactive around other dogs, and is currently being crate trained, I was nervous about being apart and worried she would be burdensome for sitters. Naotake and Hitoko never made me feel this way, going out of their way to make me and Penny feel comfortable, supported, and loved. Penny did great with them, got tons of exercise and stimulation, and even had positive experiences with others dogs at the park (which is rare). I'm so appreciate of them for making my trip stress free and treating Penny like their own. If you're looking for kind, authentic, and transparent sitters, Naotake and Hitoko are for you. They accommodated all of my requests, from making Penny kongs, wiping her paws after walks, and following crating/walking routines to ease her anxiety. I will absolutely be booking again. Thank you so much Naotake and Hitoko, Penny and I are so thankful for you! :)”
“I recently had the pleasure of leaving my dog, Claire, in the care of an amazing dog sitter africa , and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and took the time to get to know Claire’s personality, habits, and needs. I wholeheartedly recommend Africa to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Woodlawn home-away-from-home, 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 Woodlawn.
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 Woodlawn 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 , 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 .
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.
