“I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care you provided for my dog, Luna! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in great hands. You took the time to understand her personality and needs, which made all the difference. Luna had an absolute blast during her day with you! Thank you once again for giving Luna such a wonderful day. I will definitely be reaching out for future dog-sitting needs, and I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!”


“Hailey and Justin did a wonderful job taking care of my dachshund for the weekend! They sent pictures and updates and I could tell he was having a great time. Would definitely recommend and book them again! Thank you!!”


“Megan was a God-send for me. I needed a sitter to watch Gracie while my husband and I were on our honeymoon. 3 weeks before the wedding I had some car issues that resulted in added stress to me. Megan worked with me on getting things booked, and knowing that having Gracie taken care of w was so relieving during that time. Her kids were amazing with Gracie and we loved getting daily updates on our sweet girl. We will definitely use Megan and her boys for Gracie in the future. Thank you sooo much for loving our girl.”


“Anita, Ryan, and Fern are seriously the BEST petsitters one can ever ask for. Max (my now 10-month shiba inu) was so happy! He smells better than ever! Anita must be wiping him several times a day :) Also, he is very happy and has a shining coat! looks so healthy and happy.. what more can I ask for! This was the longest time away from my fur baby, more than 3 weeks! but he was in excellent hands! Thank you so much Anita, Ryan, and Fern!! (Fern is Max's stepsister he always wanted)”


“Kylie did a fantastic job with our Golden Retriever. She sent us multiple pictures every day, bathed him before we picked him up, and sent him home with a new toy. She is wonderful and kind, and we would definitely use her again!”


“Sarah is very professional and thorough! She took notes about all of my puppy’s preferences and made sure to follow up with me throughout her stay. My dog got lots of love, care, and play with Sarah!”


“Jan was so very kind with my baby Bentley, she updated me and made me feel rest assured with check-ins and pictures. I was happy to leave my mini schnauzer with her as she also has 2 mini schnauzers which made my pups stay extra fun to have playmates. I loved she has a fenced in yard where the dogs can run & play and feel free. Bentley loved her attention and cuddle time. I'm very picky when it comes to my baby and wanted to not worry and I felt she made me relax he was in good hands. I will definitely call on her for the next trip!!”


“Super nice/living family. After initially meeting them, I was very comfortable leaving my Murphy with them. They have two lovely Beagles and children who obviously love the dogs as well & a perfect indoor & outdoor setting for playing and roaming. They sent me photos and a video which made my day. Nathan even slept downstairs on the couch when my pup seemed worried without having anyone around as it was his first night away from home in several months since a horrific extended stay experience with a facility. I will definitely use them again whenever I need to be away from home!”


“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Aaron and Erin took the best care of my puppy Kolby. I had to go out of town due to family illness and they relieved so much stress for me knowing Kolby was getting the best care. Aaron and Erin kept.me updated with messages, pictures and videos. I would recommend them to everyone I know and will definitely use them again in the future!!!!!”


“Kaycee took wonderful care of my pup! She regularly updated me on how Marley was doing and sent me pictures. I contacted her at the last minute to see if she could watch Marley and was very accommodating. Would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a dog sitter!”



“Thank you Mark and Elizabeth for taking such great care of Baxter while we were gone celebrating our anniversary. Thank you for the pictures of him having a great time. It’s great to know that there are people that will open up their homes and take in other peoples animals instead of having to leave them in a boarding house or somewhere else that they may not get very much attention or affection and play. You guys are awesome and we appreciate every thing . Jason and Dawn ( Baxter’s mommy and daddy)”



“Mark & Vicky took excellent care of our dog, Poco! They attended to his every need, including daily walks, administering medication, and lots of affection. They also communicated extremely well and kept us updated with his activities each day. Knowing that Poco was happy, and enjoying himself in a home setting with responsible loving people, helped us to better enjoy our family vacation away. Thank you Mark & Vicky, we'll be in touch when we plan our next vacation! Terra, Brian & Girls”


“Keith, Rebecca and family watched our puppy for 5 days. She had such a great time! They sent me pictures everyday, and this makes me very happy. Thank you very much!”


About: I’ve been a dog lover since about the age of 10 when we got my family dog, Shadow, a cockapoo. As a kid and while growing up, I even trained Shadow to compete in agility competitions and took him to training weekly while also practicing with him in the backyard! When I moved out, I got my own fur baby- a golden doodle named Bubity! Obsessed doesn’t even begin to describe how much I love my dog as I have a water bottle, pair of slippers, shorts and sweatshirt with him on it! I promise to treat your dog as if they’re are my own! I’m currently working part time as a nurse while also attending classes virtually for my masters. My schedule changes weekly but I usually know it about a month in advance! I am pretty flexible on my days off and and willing to work with you in order to help take care of your fur baby! I have a fully fenced in yard and my 1 golden doodle at home. I am more than happy to host your dog for play dates in our yard. I know how hard it is to get a routine set with your dog whether it be something as simple as turning the TV on before leaving the house, walking a specific route to get them to go potty or giving them a special treat when they’re going to be left alone. Whatever your routine is, let me know and I will follow it to its entirety!

“This review is the absolute truth. Brittany is that rare individual that REALLY cares for the pet you entrust her with. My dog had never been outside my care. He bonded so well with her as I saw in the pictures she sent me as I was on my trip. I would look to have her take care of my dog anytime!!! Thanks to Brittany and to Rover for employing her. 5 star review!!!!”


About: Hi I’m Nathan and I want to make your life easier! I learned to walk my grandparents dog as soon as I was old enough to hold the leash. I have always had a cat, but I only had one dog for most of his life until he crossed that rainbow bridge. I found that the paw prints left on my heart could be filled with the joy of helping my friends and family with their dogs. I love to help keep dogs happy and healthy, including a good diet, and plenty of exercise. I work from home full time, so I’m available for evening walks. If your dog is cat friendly and on the smaller size, and decides I’m a safe human, I’m also willing to board both during the day and overnight. I have two cats, I keep their food out of reach of dogs when they’re over, and their litter box FAR separated from where a dog can access it.

Chapel Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn’t be happier with Kaylee! She went above and beyond while watching our dogs—not only taking amazing care of them, but even grooming them too. They had the best time playing with her dogs, and I love that she doesn’t keep them crated the whole time. Instead, she truly loves them like her own, which is exactly what I’ve been searching for when we travel. Thank you so much, Kaylee, for giving us peace of mind and spoiling our pups while we were away! 🐾💛

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Aaron and Erin took the best care of my puppy Kolby. I had to go out of town due to family illness and they relieved so much stress for me knowing Kolby was getting the best care. Aaron and Erin kept.me updated with messages, pictures and videos. I would recommend them to everyone I know and will definitely use them again in the future!!!!!

WOW where do I start as words are hard to find for a dog sitter that cares and takes care of your dog like her very own! I have used Mary's services previously with amazing results and so glad she was available again for our trip ! I get continued updates with pictures throughout each day providing me piece of mind about my fur baby! I cannot say enough of her professionalism, attention care, love and affection provided when I cannot be available to give it ! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a worry free environment for your four legged family member! Thank you so much Holly Winning 🙂

We left our Febie with Julia and had a great experience! From the start, we felt comfortable and knew Febie was in good hands. She took such good care of Febie and gave her lots of love and attention. We really appreciated the regular photo and message updates. We highly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a kind and reliable pet sitter. We’ll definitely ask her to watch Febie again!
