“I cannot recommend Brittany highly enough! She took such great care of my dog, Jack Daniels, while I was away. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. She kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Jack Daniels seemed so happy, relaxed, and well taken care of when I returned. It’s clear Brittany is responsible, trustworthy, and goes above and beyond. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future! Thank you!”

“The dogs (all 3 of them could not be happier) to stay with the loveliest family. They spoiled them, exercised them and took such good care of my puppies that I don’t think they wanted to leave. Huge house and a beautiful property for dogs to play and romp and just have a blast!”

Roshan S.

“Miles had a wonderful time at Deborah's. She sent lots of pictures and she can move walks everyday. She was very responsible and responded each day with an update. I will book again as a matter of fact I did already”

Sam F.

“Had an excellent experience boarding my dog Ross while I was out of the country for 5 days! Philip and Mallory were so kind/welcoming, and it was clear that they cared for Ross as if he were their own. I got regular photos and updates from Philip and was very comfortable knowing Ross was in good hands. Will definitely be booking again in the future!”

Sarah G.

“Lovely family! Monica and her son were so kind and patient with Kevin. Our initial meet-and-greet ended quickly because Kevin didn’t seem to get along with one of their dogs at first, but Monica’s son encouraged us to come back and give the dogs more time to get comfortable with each other. I really appreciated that, because Kevin ended up having a great stay based on the photos and updates I received. I’m very happy with the care they gave him, especially since they were able to take him last minute. Thank you again!”

Tina L.

“Nicholas, Thank you so much for caring for Buddy. I’m so glad you felt he was compatible with you. We really appreciated the pics and seeing he was doing well. It was very reassuring. We would love to have you care for him again sometime. We are really impressed with Rover and how easy it is to use and communicate. Thanks again Nicholas and Rover.”

Katy S.

“Sierra has a wonderful rapport with my dog. She definitely was well taken care of during her stay with Sierra. I highly recommend her and will use her again!”

“This was my first time using rover and Stacey didn’t disappoint. She was very diligent and made sure that my dog had a safe and fun time while I was gone. She sent me daily pics and kept me updated on how she did each day. I will definitely be using her again!”

About: I've been the go to dog sitter for friends and family since I was a kid, and I've spent a lot of my years volunteering at various shelters and rescues, as well as fostering puppies before moving to NC. That's actually how Penny came to be part of the family. Penny is now going on 7 and became the only dog at home last year when we laid our sweet Porsche to rest at 17. I've thought about getting a second dog to keep her company, but Rover felt like a great opportunity for Penny to make new dog friends without bringing another dog into the mix full time. Working from home, Penny & I have a pretty mellow lifestyle that involves a good amount of soaking up the sun in our fenced back yard or relaxing in the house. Being there will never be any long stretches the dogs would be unattended, I'm able to care for puppies all the way up to our senior four legged furbabies. Penny & I are not big adventurers, but do take regular walks on local trails and play a good game of tug o war and fetch out back. Your dog will be well cared for and have a relaxing stay that includes lots of love and attention. In this house dogs are family. We always prefer a meet and greet to ensure everyone is comfortable before booking. Every dog is different, so message me anytime to chat about what your pup needs. There's no rigid schedule in our home. Dogs are free to roam the house and set their own pace, whether that's napping, playing, or just hanging out with Penny and I. I'm happy to match whatever feeding routine your dog is used to. Potty breaks and yard time happen regularly throughout the day, and I can accommodate walks or specific routines your dog needs, though we mostly stick close to home unless you'd like something different arranged. I'll send photo updates throughout their stay to ensure you know your pup is safe sound and having a good time. Since I work from home, I'm around to keep an eye on things and adjust to whatever rhythm your dog is comfortable with. Our backyard is fully fenced, giving dogs plenty of room to play safely outside. For quick errands, I use a crate or a separate room to keep dogs settled while I'm out, especially while your dog and Penny are still getting to know each other. A crate is also available if your dog needs one for sleep, or feel free to bring your own. Dogs are always fed separately, so let me know about any allergies, dietary needs, or treat preferences ahead of time. I love doing a meet and greet before booking, so we can make sure it's a good fit before their stay. Our home is calm and quiet, which helps dogs settle in and feel comfortable quickly.

About: Available full time to watch your babies. I love dogs and I have always had 1or 2 myself. My husband and myself have bought an RV and we live in it in a campground but we do have yard space and lots of space for walking your loved ones. I have worked for 1 1/2 years at a veterinarian office. Let me take care of your pet for you and you'll not have to worry about them. I am a very reliable person. I love dogs of all kinds and of all ages. I can sit them in their own surroundings in their home or at my home. I can provide you with a reference if you would like. Dogs mean so much to me and I love to show them all the loving they need. I in NO way believe in animal cruelty, it is not in no way tolerated!! Pick me and you won't be sorry. I don't work outside the home so I'll have plenty of time to play with your baby which is right down my alley. I love animals! I can let your pet roam in my home if that is what they are used to and that won't bother me. I can also crate your pet if need be but only if you instruct me to do so. I also have a small fenced area for them to roam.

“Maria did a wonderful job taking care of Murphy. Our schedule was a bit uncertain and Maria was super accommodating, always keeping us updated with plenty of videos and pictures. Her whole family has treated Murphy like one of theirs and it was such a relief knowing he was being loved.”

“Parvathi did such a great job taking care of Charlie! She sent the cutest photos and helpful updates. Normally, Charlie gets tired after coming home from a sitter, but this time he was well-rested and full of energy! She did a great job taking care of Charlie! She always wiped his paws and kept him clean after each walk. We'll definitely be booking again.”
