“Misty is truly amazing and really proactive with our pups. Truly a professional. We had a toenail issue during one visit and she sent me photos so I took Wolfie to the vet to get evaluated and Misty later texted to see how he was doing post-visit. The injury was his fault…chasing a squirrel and lost footing in the gravel. I know some people may find it odd to use this app but it’s legit. We receive texting and picture notifications with report cards during each visit. You won’t regret it! :-)”


“This is our first time using Ashley to let our dog out in the middle of the day. She is fantastic! Our dog is weary of strangers and Ashley handled the situation really well- she went at his pace and spent some extra time with him. She sent a lot of photos and a detailed description of her time with Rowan. I would definitely use her again!”


“Lindsay is AMAZING!! She is extremely reliable, great at communication, and Ellie LOVES her!! She comes over every day while I’m at work to walk, play with El. I HIGHLY recommend her if you are browsing through caregivers looking for someone to love your dog like you do when you have to be away! I cannot say enough amazing things about Lindsay, I do not worry one bit knowing that she is stopping in to take care of Ellie❤️”


About: My lifelong love for animals began on our family farm, where I gained hands on experience caring for a variety of animals. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of being a pet parent to horses, dogs, cats, and birds. I understand that every animal is unique and strive to meet them where they are, offering compassionate, personalized care. I’m employed full time in Higher Education, but work remotely as a regional recruiter. My schedule is flexible and allows me to be accessible at unique times during a traditional work week. I have 3 cats, all at different life stages. They are my absolute joys. Being able to work remotely and be attentive to their needs is a privilege that I’m forever grateful for.

About: Hello! My name is kayla I have been working In animal care for 7 years I have worked closely with veterinarians, vet techs and animal care technicians to become the qualified animal care worker I am today. I have experience with dogs, cats and other farm/ exotic pets. I have cared for special needs, puppies, kittens and senior pets. I strive to give pets the love and attention they need. I always try my best to follow owner requests as I am here to make the experience as fun and comfortable as possible! I am self employed and my schedule is based on how many pets I have booked to care for and their feeding and care schedules. I care for pets in their own home just as their owner would like me to, I can provide walks, playtime, cuddle time feeding etc. I always ensure each pet is cared for as uniquely as they are!

About: Hi, I'm Meredith! I am an experienced, caring, and trustworthy petsitter. But don't take my word for it! Here's what others have said: "Meredith truly cared about my pets, and I felt completely at ease being away. As someone who’s very picky about who takes care of my dogs, I can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter." "Meredith brought peace of mind, warmth, and reliability to our home. I’d trust her with our pets anytime." "Her calm energy and loving nature were exactly what our anxious rescue needed." "Meredith was fantastic. She cared for our home and animals as if they were her own." I’d love the opportunity to care for YOUR pets and your home! Animals have always been a central part of my life. I grew up in a house full of beloved cats and dogs, and I’ve raised several pets of my own as an adult, so caring for animals is truly second nature. I started pet sitting professionally in my 20s and recently returned to it with renewed passion and dedication. I now have over 7 years of direct pet-sitting experience and a lifetime of hands-on care with animals of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. As a responsible, organized, and nurturing high school English teacher with 20 years in the classroom, I bring calm attentiveness and excellent communication to every sit. I’m also a devoted mom to two kind-hearted, respectful animal lovers (ages 8 and 11), who may occasionally accompany me depending on the arrangement. If they do, rest assured they are gentle, supervised, and bring extra love to the experience. Whether it's administering medication to a senior pet, giving special attention to a rescue, or sticking to your pet’s unique routines and needs, I approach every sit with genuine care and commitment. I’m also experienced in basic training, gentle leash walking, and giving animals the calm, consistent presence they need to feel safe. If you have houseplants, I’ve got you covered there, too. I worked in my family’s garden center for years and enjoy keeping plants healthy and thriving. While I’m newer to this platform, I take each sit seriously and treat every home and pet with the utmost respect. I do not smoke, drink, or use drugs of any kind, and I always bring my own groceries and supplies. Communication is clear before, during, and after the stay, and you'll receive regular updates to give you peace of mind. I’m in a meaningful season of transition and using this time to do something I genuinely enjoy: caring for animals while exploring new places. This work blends my love of travel and nurturing in a way that reflects my values. If you feel we might be a good fit, I’d love to connect virtually or in person, when possible. Looking forward to meeting you and your beloved companions! Pet care is a natural, joyful part of my everyday rhythm. As a longtime teacher and mom, I’m used to creating routines that are structured yet flexible, making it easy to adapt to the unique needs of each pet and home. Whether it’s morning walks, medication schedules, mealtime routines, or play and snuggle time, I build my days around ensuring animals feel safe, loved, and cared for. Because I’m in a season of life where I have more flexibility, I’m able to be fully present with the pets I care for and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, consistency, and calm companionship throughout the day. It’s more than just a task in my routine; it’s a grounding and fulfilling part of my life that I genuinely enjoy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the routines and environment your pet already knows and loves. I follow all instructions closely, whether that means administering medications, preparing special meals, sticking to walk schedules, or providing quiet companionship. I aim to create a calm, consistent atmosphere that feels safe and nurturing, so your pet can relax while you're away. Also, I treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own. I’m clean, organized, and attentive to details, and I always communicate clearly throughout the sit to keep you informed and at ease. If my well-behaved, animal-loving children (ages 8 and 11) accompany me, it’s only with prior agreement, and they are gentle, respectful, and supervised at all times. Above all, I care for each animal as if they were my own, with patience, love, and a genuine commitment to their well-being.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats my entire life—owning both personally! I also have extensive experience caring for senior dogs and cats.

I also live near the River Walk in downtown Hillsborough, which is perfect for sunny walks.

About: I’ve had animals of many kinds from tiny to huge growing up. I’d normally house sit for family and friends until I decided to join the Rover crew.

I am a part time college student doing majority of my classes online. For the time being my schedule is an empty open book waiting to be filled!

About: I've had dogs as pets since I've been a little girl so hand in hand. I've taken care of dogs since I've been a little girl. Every time my dad goes out of town. I watch the animals. I watch the neighbors dogs. Animals always love me because I treat them with the utmost respect and like my own children. I will make sure your dog uses the bathroom regularly.

I love dogs so much and I've always wanted to make money doing something I love. That's why I have come to this app to work. Pet care fits in my daily and weekly routine.

If I have any questions at all I will text and call immediately. If watching your home I can also do some cleaning for you for when you get back so everything is in order.


About: My love of pet care began at age 14 when I got my 1st job working with a vet. I bicycled each morning at 6 am before school to clean cages. My love and determination has not waned over the years and I have continued, off and on, to work with vets and offer in home pet care to a diverse group of clients from birds to wolfhounds for the last 30+ years.. I am looking forward to meeting your fur family and discussing how I might provide the best care for your loved ones in your absence. As a fellow user of this service, I understand the desire for an experienced, trust worthy, capable, level headed care giver with a degree of common sense. My aim is to provide the same level of care that I would expect my family to receive as well. Your sense of confidence in my abilities to care for your family is my #1 priority. I bi-locate between Greensboro and Danville and am available in both locations and between. I look forward to speaking with you! At the moment, in home pet care is my first priority and upon approval, I can be available 7 days per week as well as on an extended basis, upon review and acceptance by both parties for in your home pet care and walking duties as well as drop-in visits. I have found most pets prefer to be in their own homes and around familiar sights and sounds to ease their transition from their primary caregiver to me. For this reason, I highly recommend in home pet care. I am willing to discuss pet care in my home on a case by case basis.

About: I’ve had the joy to work with and own various types of animals throughout my life, from cats and dogs to exotics. I also have experience dealing with special needs and senior animals. I have worked in shelters and vet clinics; this experience gave me skills in administration of oral medication, working and managing multiple animals at once, identifying when an animal is feeling under the weather and understanding animal body language and cues. I completed multiple classes that allowed me to learn both hands on and through bookwork, to acquire my veterinary assisting certification. I have flexible availability all weekdays for drop ins, walks and doggy daycare. I am available for boarding weekdays and weekends. I may be away for a few hours daily, but someone will be home with your pet at all times. Care is tailored to you and your pet’s needs. When it comes to your fur-babies staying in my home, they will be kept separate from our animals, in their own space, which will provide a calmer and less stressful environment for your pet! I will require that each pet staying in my home have their own crate and any other personal things you would like to bring for them to make their stay as happy and comfortable as possible. If you have any special requirements or information that you would like to give me for your pet, I will happily accept and follow it. I understand and respect that every pet is different! All pets, whether boarding or doggy daycare, will get optimal amounts of supervised outside time. I have a large, fenced in back yard that is the perfect place for playtime! If you would prefer a leashed walk for your pet, there is a long, country road with tons of sights and smells for your pet to enjoy that we can walk together! After playtime, plenty of water and cuddles will be provided. They will have plenty of time outside of their crates to hang out with me and explore! If you would like a nail trim or a bath, just let me know before hand and I will be more than happy to do that for you. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Misty K.Star Sitter

“Misty is truly amazing and really proactive with our pups. Truly a professional. We had a toenail issue during one visit and she sent me photos so I took Wolfie to the vet to get evaluated and Misty later texted to see how he was doing post-visit. The injury was his fault…chasing a squirrel and lost footing in the gravel. I know some people may find it odd to use this app but it’s legit. We receive texting and picture notifications with report cards during each visit. You won’t regret it! :-)”
