“Jessica was a gem! She was so attentive and responsive to my cats and kept in consistent communication with me while I was away. I highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again!”
“We cannot say enough amazing things about Kyla! She recently pet sat for our dog, Bernadette, and she was hands-down one of the nicest, most genuine people we have ever met. From the very beginning, it was clear how much she truly cares about animals. She went above and beyond to make sure Bernadette was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. Kyla kept us completely at ease by sending regular updates and the sweetest pictures, which we absolutely looked forward to receiving. Her communication was flawless, her energy was incredibly warm, and she gave us total peace of mind while we were away. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own family, Kyla is the one. We will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you, Kyla!”
“Comfort was a great babysitter. She made sure to always check in when she was taking my dog on walk and how he was doing. Absolutely would book her again to take care of my dog while I’m away!”
“Courtney provided dog sitting and housesitting services for me. She was great with my Sheppard!! She also kept the house in neat order and provided plenty of love to my dog. I will definitely use her again!!”
“Nate was great! This is my first time using Rover or having anyone watch my dog. At first I was a little concerned about having somebody stay in my house but with Nate I had no concerns or stresses. He was very kind to Redford and very professional. He did everything exactly how he said he would. He would send me daily updates with pictures of Redford. Redford is not the most easy dog to be around but Nate was very patient and kind to him and so Redford settled right in with him just as he would with me. I definitely will be using Nate in the future and said highly suggest you do the same ???”
“Myeisha was absolutely wonderful. Communicative, timely, and stayed overnight at my house for 4 nights while we were on vacation. I’m truly grateful as she took great care of my dog and my cat and my home too, vacuuming, taking out the trash, and putting the bedding in the wash before she left. Truly wonderful!”
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Kristena was excellent! We left her with 2 cats, an older dog and a puppy. She sent us detailed updates every day with pictures and even did some training with our puppy while we were away. She also took great care of our home and left it in spotless condition, cleaning up after herself and the animals. We would love to have her back any time!”
“Jylesha was a solid puppy and house sitter! We hired Jylesha in a a time crunch and she was very accommodating with our last-minute booking. She communicated quickly and well, and she did exactly as we asked with the dogs. She was a great house guest and we would not hesitate to work with her again!”
“Brooke was amazing when caring for our 3 pets! She sent photos, replied fast and was very kind. I felt confident that our pets were in great hands while we were gone. We will definitely use Brooke as a pet sitter again in the future!”
“As always, Mattea took such great care of our pets and home and gave frequent updates/pictures. Having someone so wonderful house sitting takes away the stress of leaving our fur babies at home when we are gone on trips.”
“Rylee did a wonderful job caring for our two aging fur children - a cat and a dog - during our extended vacation! She kept us up to date and kept our house in great shape during her stay. We'd highly recommend her to anyone and seek to rebook with her for any future needs!”
“Layla was phenomenal. She is so thoughtful and thorough when it came to taking care of my two dogs. She was kind, curious about their schedule, and incredibly considerate of my home. Thanks Layla!”

“As soon as I met Loren I felt completely comfortable leaving our 15 month old pampered Coton de Tulear with her. She sent me great pictures that showed Moppie was relaxed and happy. I would not hesitate to get her to dog sit again!”
“Kira did such a fantastic job with my dog for an overnight sitting! It was my first time leaving my baby with someone else and she did such a wonderful job taking care of and sending updates that I felt completely at ease during my trip! Will definitely use Kira again and highly recommend her!!”
“Summer was fantastic. I was so comfortable leaving both my young, energetic dog and my senior dog with health issues with them. I got regular updates and pictures. Summer left the house in great condition, even tending to my orchids in a way I never could! I would 100% recommend Summer for your pet sitting needs. Summer would be my first choice for a dog & house sitter.”
About: I have experience caring for multiple dogs in the same household, including managing individual routines, feeding schedules, walks, and medications. I’ve cared for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I’m comfortable handling up to three dogs at a time. I focus on calm, consistent care and clear communication to help dogs feel safe and settled while their humans are away. Hi, I’m Tara — a calm, attentive house sitter with a deep respect for animals, routines, and the homes I care for. I work remotely as a Creative Wellness Guide and Poet, which allows me to be fully present with pets throughout the day while maintaining a steady, flexible schedule. I’m currently based in the Raleigh–Durham area and enjoy caring for pets while exploring familiar neighborhoods or new places at a relaxed pace.

Whether your dog enjoys walks and companionship or your cat prefers quiet consistency, I follow their lead and keep their routines steady. I take pride in maintaining a peaceful home environment, caring for pets thoughtfully, and communicating clearly with pet parents. House and pet sitting allows me to combine my love of animals, nature, and travel with meaningful, responsible care. It’s a privilege to support both pets and their humans so everyone can feel at ease while apart.

Helena was absolutely wonderful with our two cats, Mussum and Matilda! Matilda is extremely shy and afraid of new people, so we were a little nervous about leaving them with someone new. But Helena has a natural gift with cats. During her very first visit alone, she was actually able to get Matilda out of her hiding spot, five her some treats, and even play with her! Helena took great care of everything — food, water, litter boxes — and, most importantly, gave both cats lots of attention and playtime. She also sent us pictures during her visits, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home knowing our “kids” had been in very good hands. We highly recommend Helena and will definitely ask her to take care of Mussum and Matilda again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a great experience with Austin! Austin and Morgan asked a lot of questions to get to know your dogs and their routine and anything to be aware of while caring for your dogs. You can tell they really want to be prepared to take excellent care of your pets while you’re away. Austin took great care of my dogs and my apartment, sent updates with picture throughout the stay. You can tell my dogs were happy and well cared for. Would definitely book again!
Carloine was a wonderful sitter who stayed with our two dogs at our house. It was reassuring to leave the dogs with someone who genuinely cares for the pups she looks after. Communicative, sent a picture every day and the dogs always looked happy and at ease. In addition, Caroline was a perfect house guest and left everything spic-and-span for us on our return. I recommend Caroline unreservedly and will surely call on her again in the future. Thank you Caroline!
Nathan is a wonderful pet sitter! He was flexible and accommodating with our schedule. He was very patient with our skittish cat, and I’m pretty sure our other cat is disappointed we are home and wishes he was still here. 🤣 We will definitely use his services again.
Sophina did an amazing job taking care of our dogs and cats while also house sitting for us. She was incredibly flexible, communicative, and always willing to send photos and updates whenever we asked. We allowed her to have guests, and she was very respectful about keeping us informed and making sure we were comfortable with everything. She kept our home clean and left everything exactly how we had left it, which we really appreciated. She also went above and beyond when it came to caring for our pets. Our dog has a habit of getting into the litter box, and even though cleaning up after situations like that was definitely beyond what we expected from her, she was always willing to help wherever needed and made sure everything stayed clean. Sophina is someone we trust, and we would absolutely have her house sit and care for our pets again, especially for longer vacations. She is reliable, respectful, and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets and their home.
Autumn was a wonderful sitter for our two dogs. She worked wonders keeping both of them happy and well cared for, which is no small feat since one is spunky (likes long walks and playtime) and the other is older (needs very frequent outings, but no long walks). She was great at sending us regular updates and adorable pictures of both girls, she kept the house clean and she even went above and beyond by offering nail trims for both. We would definitely ask Autumn to dog sit again if we need help!
Anna goes far above expectation in her senior dog care giving. My 14 year old was suffering extra anxiety and wouldn’t go upstairs to her regular bed. Anna arranged to sleep near my dog by sleeping right next to her and calming her until she fell asleep. She walked, petted and fed according to special instructions. Anna also keeps the home in extra good order and stays in touch with reports. Anna is an exceptional dog care giver for overnights and I look forward to hiring her again soon.
Yanke was so great with my pup cooper! So glad I found her. She is definitely someone you can trust for house sitting. We were traveling internationally for a week and Yanke kept us updated throughout the whole trip with pictures so that I could keep my mind at ease and enjoy my vacay! I’ll definitely be using Yanke again for house sitting and highly reccomend to anyone :) thanks for all you do!
