“Emily took great care of Ruger. She sent us multiple pictures and kept us informed of what was happening. The house was spotless when we came home. We look forward to Emily working with us in the future!”

“Sarah is so wonderful! She truly loves our pets and takes such great care of them! She is very responsive and super flexible. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Sandy was great! I have a special needs pup and when I returned home, he was sound asleep and very content. I could tell that she pampered both of my babies while we were away as she sent many updates and photos. I highly recommend Sandy to take care of pets if you need to travel.”

“Rebekah did a great job pet sitting at our house with our 4-year old lab/belgian manois shepherd. We had a very last minute need for 4 nights/5 days in our home and Rebekah managed to make it work with short notice. Maya was happy and she has a new friend in Rebekah. We highly recommend her.”

“We really loved Christine. Not only is she a kind, loving soul, she showed a lot of attention to detail. We felt comfortable leaving our babies with her and are planning on booking again! I have no reservations about her and she did a fantastic job!!!!! She is great!”

“Savannah did an outstanding job caring for all of our pets. She handled our two large, high energy dogs with confidence and made sure they got plenty of exercise and attention. We were especially impressed with how quickly our typically shy cat warmed up to her and even started playing, which is very rare. It was clear that Savannah genuinely cares for them. We highly recommend her and will definitely be reaching out again in the future.”

About: I have always grown up with animals and my love for them led me to a job at a pet resort. I was a kennel technician for 4 years which provided me great insight to care for all types of furry friends. I just graduated college from UNC Charlotte and home in Emerald Isle for the summer. Most days I workout and hang with my family so my schedule is pretty flexible. I always try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they’re used to because I know how stressful change can feel—especially for anxious pets. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I make it my priority to provide comfort, consistency, and lots of love while they’re away from their parents.
“Robyn did a great job while house sitting in our home with our precious dog and cat. Our cat doesn't usually like many people but she bonded really well with Robyn. She kept us updated with photos and when I messaged her to check on them, she responded right away. We kept in contact every day. The house was also left very neat and tidy. We will definitely use her again.”

“Ashleigh did great with my animals while I went away for the weekend. Received picture updates throughout the times she stopped by. She even cleaned the litter boxes and accident spots as needed. I appreciate everything she did!”

“Brittany was awesome for us and our two pups (one of whom is a bit slow to warm up to new people). Brittany was able to take care of our dogs exactly how they’re used to and was very communicative with us while we were away with messages and pictures! She even toughed out a big snowfall and made sure our pups were all set throughout it. Brittany treated our home with great respect and left things very neat, clean, and tidy. We will definitely be calling her when we need a sitter next!”

My contract job just ended so I have a lot of time available to care for your pups and kitties. I love getting out and walking. When I visit a clients home, I care for their pets like my own making sure they have a good walk if they're a dog freshwater and food and snuggles.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember ! Growing up, I spent much of my time volunteering at a local animal shelter alongside my grandmother, where I helped feed the cats, clean their spaces, and make sure they felt safe and cared for. I was also actively involved in her animal rescue work, regularly attending adoption events , walking and caring for adoptable dogs and cats , and helping animals find their forever homes. Those experiences taught me how to understand animal behavior, build trust with shy or nervous pets, and provide calm, patient care. Today, I’m a proud cat mom to two rescue cats of my own, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I’m experienced with animals of all personalities , from playful and social to timid or independent, and I always take the time to make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, or just a gentle, reassuring presence while you're away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule. Any time you need , I can likely make it work ! Important info for house sitting bookings : I can provide care for most of the day & night. When booking this service , please send me a message and answer the following questions : - Are there any specific care instructions I should be aware of ? - Can your pet be left alone ? If so , for how long at a time ? I will be happy to petsit your animals in your home. Whether that means drop ins, house sitting, or dog walking, you can trust that your animals and your home will be in good hands with me. You can rest assured that when you book with me , your animals will get my full attention and care, and you as their owner will receive clear communication and updates from me every step of the way. I own two cats of my own that I love very much, so I understand just how important it is to make sure they are in good hands , safe , and well taken care of while you are away. I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own !
“Natasha was very sweet and kind. Took good care of my pups. All 4 got to sleep in bed with a human (lol) instead of their cage for the night. She cleaned up after herself and respected our home. Definitely will use her again and would recommend her to others.”

About: I have never had a moment in my life where I did not have multiple pets at a time. My household is very pet friendly and with that I have learnt how to care for them properly! I love animals of all kinds and have been relied on for many different pet sitting/caring occasions. Along with my full-time job, I work part-time at a pet store where I have learned a great deal on different techniques and tactics on how to properly care for, meet, and love animals. Through this store I have also gained many training opportunities where I can educate myself further on pet care and nutrition! I currently work full-time. Therefore, I am the perfect candidate for morning, and night feedings, walks, drop-ins, etc. as my schedule in the middle of the day is pretty filled. I am pretty open on weekends! Having two dogs of my own, I know what all goes into caring for a pet! Depending on your needs, I am able and experienced in feeding, walking, crating (if desired), playing, etc.
“Lindsay did an amazing job with our three babies! She kept the house just how we left it and consistently sent us pictures and updates while we were away! 10/10 would recommend ?”
“Riley did a wonderful job! Dory loved her & she was so responsive to his needs. Dory is very scared of thunder storms and Riley helped him through it. She also sent pictures to keep us updated.”

Cape Carteret pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was going out of town for my Mom's bday trip and I had 2 sitters cancel on me. I saw kyndalls reviews and I wanted to meet her. She came over and met Kobe and she played with him and he loved her from the beginning. While I was away, She sent me pics and videos and she quickly responded when I did check in. When I came back my home was how I left it. I'd definitely let her house sit in my home with Kobe again. Im sure Kobe is looking forward to it!!
