“Kovu loved Sara and her pup Theo! He had a great time playing in the backyard and relaxing on the furniture. Sara was very respondent and sent lots of photos to make me feel good about leaving my pup behind.”
“Susan is a lifesaver! I could tell the love for dogs she has within an instant of meeting her. Extremely accommodating, maintains the pup’s daily schedule and routines, and is very communicative. I highly recommend!”
“Rose kept Dasher for 10 days at a last minute request. Her and her family treated Dasher as part of their family and took GREAT care of my babyboy. Definitely recommended if you need someone to care for your fur baby.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving Georgie with Mindy. She sent pictures and videos while she had our dog. She was very responsive and pleasant. I would leave my dog with her again.”
“Elizabeth was fantastic. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our girl with her. She kept up updated with pictures and information throughout the day. We would 100% book with her again in the future.”
“Amy is the best!!! She took my reservation request super last minute and my dogs were well taken care of. We received pictures to let us know how they were doing with her. Will definitely use her again! Thank you Amy!!”
“I’d give more stars if I could! Olivia was the perfect fit for my pup Teddy. I was nervous about boarding him for the first time since he is prone to getting anxious, but he was in great hands. She treated him as her own, was attentive to how he was doing, and went the extra mile to take him on walks and such. She was great with communication, sent me daily updates on how Teddy was doing, and even let me stop in to see him. If you want your pup to feel at home, Olivia is your girl!”
“Left our 8 month old puppy with Chase for 3 days- he got along great with Chase’s dogs as well. Will definitely have Chase watch Ghost again if we ever go out of town!”
“Our dogs had a great time with Christianna! She sent us pictures and replied to our texts almost immediately to let us know how the dogs were doing. Very accommodating to drop off and pick up times. Would definitely recommend to a friend!”
“Erin was an awesome sitter. She watched our golden retriever for a couple days and had a fantastic setup; Giant fenced in backyard with a pool and other dogs that got along really well. She updated us with pictures and was very easy to communicate with. Dog must have had a blast because she was exhausted when we picked her up. Will definitely return if in the OBX area!”
“Theresa was so wonderful to my dog, Charlotte. This was the first time I left my dog with someone other than family and I felt completely comfortable and was able to enjoy my vacation. When I picked Charlotte up after staying at Theresa’s, she slept for an entire day, which shows me that she got plenty of exercise and was well taken care of. Thank you Theresa! I will certainly contact you next time Charlotte needs a home away from home while in the Outer Banks!”
“Kimberly is so absolutely amazing!! My Marley is right at home with her and she is so good with him. She sends lots of pics and even some funny videos too and kept me updated throughout his stay. She’s such a fun loving person and you can tell she loves dogs and truly enjoys taking care of them. Her home is dog friendly as she lets them snuggle on the sofa with her and Hulk (her adorable pup who also loves having friends over to play with!) and I highly recommend her, you won’t be disappointed, that’s for sure! Should I need someone in the future it will def be Kimberly. She is also super flexible and chill which has been a huge help since we are just moving to the area and are in a hotel that doesn’t allow pets. She’s been so helpful and understanding while we go through the process of renting.a home which is taking longer then expected. I’m so thankful for her as I know my pet is happy and safe with her.”
“Excellent stay, felt very comfortable and got plenty of update pictures! Would use again if I was in the area.”
“First time Rover user and am pleased to report that everything went great and Mary truly cares for your dog while in her care! During the booking process Mary was very attentive and quick to respond, and she assured me that my pup will be in good hands. I only needed my dog to be in Mary's care for a few days before our dog-friendly rental was available, so knowing that she was 7 minutes away was helpful, she even said I could stop by and take her for the day if I wanted to! Very cool! Day 1 my pup was not very happy to be there and was whining at the door... Mary texted me asking if there was anything she could do to make her feel comfortable, after a couple more hours my dog was snuggling with her and was super content. Mary really did care about my dog and her feelings which was very appreciated. Last but not least, Mary gave me suggestions of places to eat and cool things to do in the area! I went to a couple of her suggestions and it did not disappoint. Highly recommend and I will definitely rebook with Mary if I am in the area again.”
About: I had two labs growing up that I was always around feeding bathing and walking and I currently have a girl pit mix who I’ve had since she was a puppy. I currently work part time so I have a lot of free time and am available anytime Sunday and Monday and anytime everyday after 4:30! I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space to run around and I also have a friendly pit mix female dog she just turned one and loves having friends to play with!
