1. Ian C.

“Ian was great! He took care of Sage and my home while I was away. My home was clean and my dog was happy when I got home. I will definitely use him again!”


2. Caroline B.

“Caroline was so attentive to our two old gals, and kept us updated on her visits. Gracie & Miley loved their babysitter and looking forward to her next visit! Thanks again !”


3. Skylar W.

“Skylar is amazing! She swooped in & saved the day by agreeing to watch our dog and 2 cats super last minute when a previous Rover bailed on us. She is very communicative and did everything we asked and more! Our dog warmed up to her faster than he’s ever warmed up to any other dog sitter. Skylar sent lots of pics/videos and we were not worried about our pets or our house at all while we were on vacation! Will 100% ask her to watch them again in the future.”


4. Abigail L.
“Abby would be my very first choice if I ever needed someone to dog-sit for me. In fact, she is the friend that everyone calls when they need someone responsible that they trust to take care of their pets for them. She feeds the dogs on a regular schedule daily (along with any necessary medications or supplements), always has multiple clean water bowls filled both inside and in the backyard, and makes sure that her dogs or the dogs she is dog-sitting receive adequate exercise daily. She always makes the care, comfort, and happiness of her animals her top priority.”


5. Jonathan R.

“Great experience! It was my first time using rover, so I didnt know what to expect, but glad to say I’ll keep booking with Jonathan after this experience! He was very accommodating and receptive to my dogs’ routines. He helped me with my active border collie and 8-week old puppy, who can’t be left alone yet. They were quick to take with him, and I came back to them both having been taken care of and a my house as when I left!”




6. Milena B.


“Milena was reliable, friendly and a wonderful caretaker for our very young puppy. Sent pictures for updates and we felt very comfortable having her in our home while we were out. Thank you Milena!”




7. Spicer C.
“Look no further for the perfect animal lover for your pet sitting or dog walking needs! Spicer has years of animal handling and training experience for furry friends small and large. They are incredibly caring, responsible, and communicative. Your pet will be sure to love their time with Spicer!”

About: I have taken care of animals for the last 5 to 6 years, including my personal animals and animals of loved ones. I can bathe, brush, walk and play with all kinds of dogs. I am a very big animal lover and I will most likely fall in love with your animals the second I meet them. I do work a full-time job at Eastern Carolina Veterinary referral, but I have plenty of time on my days off or I can stop by after my shifts end. I have a fenced in back yard. I have two dogs of my own and they’re super friendly and not aggressive in any way. I personally have a German shepherd and I am completely comfortable with walking larger dogs.


9. Grace W.

“My pug, Dory, loved having Grace stay the night with her while went out of town. Grace was wonderful at communicating before my trip, during and after. So thankful we found her and will use her again.”


10. Madison M.

“Maddie was an amazing sitter for our home and pets. She remained in constant communication with updates on how everyone was doing while we were away. She was patient and caring with our pets, taking very good care of them. We felt so at ease having someone we could trust while we were away and look forward to utilize her services again. We absolutely recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring rover sitter!”

Why choose me? 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Dogs are never left alone in the backyard. I feed dogs separately to ensure a calm mealtime. Flexible—I'll follow your pet's schedule to keep them happy and stress-free. Your pets will receive the same care and attention I give my own. Let me give you peace of mind while you're away! Contact me today to discuss your needs and schedule a meet-and-greet. About My Schedule I’m dedicated to providing the best care for your furry family members. I work from home, so I’m here throughout the day, ensuring your dog is always supervised and cared for. In addition, I have two adult children, aged 20 and 23, who also live at home full-time. This means there’s always someone present to look after your dog, giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m flexible and committed to sticking to your dog’s routine. Whether it’s meal times, walks, playtime, or medication schedules, I’ll make sure to follow your instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable and happy. Your fur baby will feel right at home with us! --- A Typical Day With the Dogs Every day with the dogs is filled with fun, activity, and care. I start by ensuring everyone is comfortable, fed, and ready for the day. If your dog has a specific routine, I’ll stick to it to make them feel right at home. Our backyard is fully fenced and features an agility setup that all dogs are welcome to enjoy. Whether it’s practicing agility, playing fetch, or simply running around with my two energetic dogs, there’s plenty of activity to keep everyone happy and engaged. For those who love walks, I’m happy to take them out for some fresh air and exercise, following any leash or walking instructions you provide. Between play sessions, the dogs can relax in a cozy, safe indoor space where they get lots of love and attention. Throughout the day, there’s a good balance of exercise, social time, and rest, ensuring every dog feels cared for and content. I look forward to making your dog feel like part of the family! --- Let me know if you’d like to customize this further! Safety and Comfort for Your Dog Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I have a fully fenced-in backyard where your dog can play and explore securely. However, your dog will never be left outside unattended. Supervised outdoor time ensures their safety while allowing them to enjoy fresh air and exercise. Inside the house, I’ve set up a gate system to keep feeding times calm and stress-free. This ensures that each dog has their own space to eat without interruption or competition. I also take special care to separate pets as needed to maintain a safe and comfortable environment for everyone. Rest assured, your dog will be cared for with love and attention in a safe, structured, and pet-friendly environment.


12. Mikaela K.

“Mikaela was very responsive and attentive during our dog’s stay with her. Sent frequent pictures and we always felt like our dog was in great hands. Will definitely rebook!”


13. Becca M.

“Becca has watched Penelope twice now. She took great care of Penny, taking her on lots of adventures! I think Penny had more fun with Becca than she usually does with us :) Becca is super responsive and always on time. We will be using Becca again to take care of Penelope!”


14. Jaclyn B.
“Jaclyn has two dogs at home and she exhibits a responsible and caring attitude. She is attentive to her dogs needs and can be a great help to you and your pet!”


15. Drake M.

“Drake was great with Milly and very communicative!! Would recommend and love to have him again. Thank you!”


16. Elisa R.

“Elisa went above and beyond while watching Scout for a weekend. Scout got into something while on a walk that caused an allergic reaction. Elisa provided great advice given her background as a vet tech and took her into the ER and waited with her patiently. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch and take care of our pup!”


17. Brittany S.
“I left my dog Belle with Brittany for a week while I went on vacation. She was amazing with her and kept me updated with her while I was away. She took special considerations with Belle since she has anxiety. I will continue to use Brittany in the future!”


18. Ashley L.
“Ashley is amazing with my big ol’ dog Maddox. He will leave any of our family members and run to her when she arrives at the house and she loves him just as much. I really do think he’d gladly go home with her forever. I don’t trust my fur babies with just anyone - Ashley is one of the few non-family members that I do trust!”


19. Angel A.

“Angel took such amazing care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. She was communicative, sweet and responsible! We would absolutely have Angel back!”


20. Teaghan B.
“Teaghan is an exceptional pet caregiver. She provided loving care for my senior dog . She administered his meds and genuinely loved him as her own. She asked appropriate questions and gave me daily updates putting my mind at ease while I was away. I have recommended Teaghan to other family and friends. Teaghan is a true 5 out of 5 stars for customer service, care and dependability.”
