“I can't say enough good things about Valari! She was wonderful at keeping me posted with detailed updates and did a fantastic job sticking to my two pups' strict daily routine. She is genuinely the sweetest person and put their well-being above everything else. We are so happy with her and will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Chelsea took really great care of Bo while we were away and was sure to send plenty of pics & updates which were much appreciated. Felt nice to be away and have the comfort of knowing he was in good hands! :)”
“This was our first time using Brooke a she will be our #1 choice for future petsitting needs. She was an exceptional cat and dog sitter! Brooke was attentive, a great communicator (sending pictures and updates daily), and made sure everything went smoothly. We felt at ease knowing our fur babies were in such good hands while we were gone. She went above and beyond, and it truly showed. I would highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you!!”
“Maylan took amazing care of our babies while we were out of town. She took time to get to know them at a meet and greet before booking, she asked questions, she showed interest in making sure they were well taken care of. She sent photos daily with check ins during the day. She is so kind and thoughtful. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her, and I will definitely work with her again. Our pets loved her!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young till now with my two dogs, and two cats. I love to hike and walk with my dogs. They also love playing ball or chasing toys around in home. Cats are older now so they just want love and pets. I work full-time but that doesn’t stop me from having time to make sure our animals get play and care when I get home. I’m available weekends or after 5 pm for any care for your animal :) I have two dogs that are dog friendly and a crate if needed. I have a park right across the street to have long walks or play in grass or they even have a dog park.
About: I have taken care of lots of pets and have had a bunch of pets my self. I have an orange cat who loves to play and I have a bearded dragon as well. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs at once that were all high energy but so loving. I’ve had experience with bigger dogs like great Danes and German shepherds. I’m in college and have classes at 11:00-11:50 and on some days I have a class at 3:00. And I work 4-10 on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday and Sundays. But I can work around that to help you with your animals How I care for my cat beachy is I feed him in the morning before school and when I get home I play with him and gets his energy out. Then after awhile I will get my bearded dragon out and let him explore I also clean his cage and feed him. For my clients I can follow there schedule they have in place for there pets and I will treat them like my own.
“Kristine was so great with my Charlie who was suffering from extreme separation anxiety and wouldn’t eat or walk outside. She actually figured out a way to get Charlie to eat and drink something by putting her bowls in my master bath next to my closet where Charlie seemed to want to be often. I so appreciate that she knew how to just let Charlie chill and kept her calm and comfortable during her stay.”
“Brandi was awesome again. She took great care of Sammy while we got out of town for a few days. Brandi sent pics and updates. He was happy when we got home and we could tell he was good while we were gone. We will definitely ask for Brandi again for next vacation.”
About: I've been caring for pets since before I was 12, I've had Cats, Dogs, and Hamsters over the years, never met a pet I didn't like. Available All Week, been searching for a stable job but no luck, so I figured why not get paid to do something I enjoy while I look for work. I'll feed, walk, and play with your pets and if you're a concerned parent then I can happily send you pictures of your pet throughout the day.

“Anna is absolutely wonderful! Our cat, Bandit, is usually skittish around new people, but he warmed up to Anna very quickly. She was so good with him. She sent pictures every day with notes about how he was doing. We are so happy to have found her! She is delightful to be with, and we look forward to having her stay with Bandit again. In fact, when we came home to a clean house, Bandit looked at us like "ok, you guys are home, but where is my Anna?"”
“We had the BEST experience with Loren watching our dogs! She watched our two golden retrievers and even brought her own golden over during the day so they could all play together. Our boys loved it! She kept us updated, took great care of everyone, and treated our house like it was her own. She sent lots of cute pictures too. Highly recommend Loren and will definitely use her again in the future🤩”

Cape Fear pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ashlyn did an amazing job caring for our two large dogs while staying at our home for a couple of nights. They can be a handful and definitely aren’t the easiest dogs to manage, but she handled everything with confidence and professionalism. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. It’s clear that Ashlyn is experienced and truly understands dogs. We came home to happy, well cared for pups and a house that was just as we left it. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable pet sitter.
We could not have asked for a better dog sitter! Brianna went above and beyond for our pups, even with adverse weather conditions, and handled everything with such care and professionalism. Communication was excellent and she kept us continually updated, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she truly cares about the dogs she watches, and we are so grateful for the love and attention she showed ours. We will 100% be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and proactive dog sitter.
Penelope was amazing with the puppies. We are very picky when it comes to them. She was very communicative and the puppies loved her right from the start. She left the house in excellent condition when we returned. I would highly recommend Penelope and would use her again!
