“Had such a great experience boarding my pup with John! He was incredibly kind, communicative, and treated my pup like family. I got daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Highly recommend John to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“Eric and his family were phenomenal with my highly energetic, easily bored, pup! It’s a little scary leaving your dog for a week, but Eddy was very well taken care during his stay! He updated us when needed, and assured us how well Eddy was doing. The communication and pictures of my dog helped ease the nerves and certainly assured us all was great! We will definitely be reaching out to Eric again the next time we head to NC, and I highly recommend Eric if you’re looking for a great dog sitter!”

“Christianna really helped us out in a last minute bind over the Thanksgiving holiday. She was super accommodating and was willing to be flexible with our schedules. Plus our dog smelled good and clean when we picked him up. Will definitely use again. Thanks!”
“We dropped off our dog, Alfie, on our way to the outerbanks as our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs and we are so glad we booked with Kristin. Alfie had so much fun playing at their home and Kristin made sure to keep us updated with photos throughout the entire trip.”

“Cooper had a great time during his stay! We felt very comfortable leaving him here during the week and will definitely be booking again the next time we are out of town!”

“Courtney was great! Super laid back and clearly loves dogs. Our dog is blind. So he is really scared around other animals. Amazingly, Courtney had Bentley hanging out with all 3 of her dogs. We so appreciated your kind, fun, and great care of Bentley. If I'm being honest, I think Bentley would rather live at Courtney's house. He's been depressed ever since his stay ended :)”
“Lauren and her wonderful family are the very best sitters and genuinely love dogs. This is Ollie's second time visiting, and I know he's happy and loved; he always has a blast playing with Lauren's dog, Milo. Thank you!”

“My pup had the time of his life with Maria and Matthew. They treated him like he was part of the family right from the start, I was reassured knowing he was in great hands!”

“Would definitely recommend, my dog can be a little complicated and needs a little extra love and these two took care of him great. Definitely will be back and thankful they helped during a holiday!”


“I was very happy with Kathleen's service. I wanted input from my furbaby, Spike, about his stay, but he isn't very conversational! LOL But the picture Kathleen sent me of with him stretched out on her sofa, told me he was just fine. I'm look forward to working with her again in the future. Thanks, Kathleen!”

“OMG!!!! By far THE BEST EXPERIENCE I could ask for. Loved the transparency from the beginning! My Harmonie had the BEST time and I loved the pic mail received during her stay. Definitely will rebook when in town!!!!”

“Duke,Scooby,and Brittany loved their stay with Jenny. They especially loved being able to go in and out as they wanted. Duke and Scooby enjoyed their supervised swim times to the pond. We got to see Duke and Scooby swim before we left. We knew they were going to enjoy their stay. Pictures showed they were being themselves doing what they wanted to do.”


“Cassie and Tradd were the BEST home away from home for our dog! They sent us lots of updates and he was always smiling so wide, we knew he was well loved. We cannot recommend them enough - they have definitely become our go-to Rover family!”

“Jon has been a great sitter for Jinger, we're glad we found him. Our trips are better knowing she's being care for well. We truly appreciate Jon and 100% recommen him for your pet care. Thank you so much Jon!!!!”

“This is the second time I’ve left my dog with Eugene. Atlas always seems to be well cared for there and I always receive photos from him of Atlas enjoying fetch or running around his giant property. Highly recommend.”

“Excellent communication! We are so happy we have a safe/caring environment to take our dog to when we go away for a few days. We received plenty of pictures and updates of how he was doing during his stay. We would definitely recommend to others whom are looking for a reliable place to board their pet. Thank you Sabrina!”

“This was the first time using Rover. My contact with Kristen was easy and after the reading the reviews I felt she was the right choice for Diamond. Diamond came home happy and we will contact Kristen for our next sitting needs.”


About: I am a mom to 4 high-energy medium/large breed dogs. I am no stranger to cleaning up accidents, administering medications, handling pets with reactivity, and fulfilling exercise such as playing fetch, tug, flirt pole, long walks, brain stimulation (keeping up with training/commands) or simply snuggling if your baby is low activity. I have been a self-employed residential cleaner for over 8 years and create my own schedule allowing me the flexibility to care for your pets and mine! I am so grateful for all my clients who trust me to help take care of their home and I am hoping to build trust with pet parents as I would love to transition into pet care full time as it has always been what I am most passionate about. While I do have four dogs of my own, I am able to keep your dogs separate from mine at all times if requested and or necessary when boarding. I built my dogs their own apartment behind our house fully equipped with heat, ac, a bed, and doggie door leading to a fenced in area so your dog(s) does not have to be dog friendly and we are also child free so your dog can be the only baby in our home the duration of their stay! But if you would like for your dog(s) to have a playdate and a doggie daycare style stay that can be arranged as well!
“Great place for our baby to stay. They kept us updated with pictures and made sure she was comfy and well cared for in her old age. 100% will book again.”
