“What a great experience with Martine and her husband. They obviously made Bryce feel welcomed in their home … as by the second day he went straight to her front door and didn’t look back while I was leaving. Also want to “shout out” her willingness to be a bit flexible with the schedule … (I was meeting a friend locally and wanted to be able to enjoy Raleigh for dinner (which was awesome at The Plate). This pet sitting experience enhanced my visit to Raleigh !!!”



About: **Please note, I cannot accept super high energy or anxious dogs and like to keep a playful, but stress free environment for all the pups :) Dogs must be fully potty trained in other peoples homes and be dog friendly to other dogs. I have been pet-sitting, dog training and volunteering for various animal organizations for over 25 years allowing me to be very “In tune” with dogs and their needs. Your pup will have full-time one-on-one care and we provide a safe and fun place for your pups while you are at work or on vacation . I send photos and updates daily so you can know exactly how they are doing. I take as many walks as the pups need and do not watch more than 2 dogs (That makes 3 with my girl) so your dog will always have personal care in a fun and stress-free environment! Feel free to contact me for a meet and greet! =) ********IMPORTANT NOTES!!*********** **Due to proximity of neighbors and that I have client calls, we cannot have dogs that continuously bark out of respect for my neighbors. I work from home and your dog will have lots of full time care and cuddles. I do not take more than 2 dogs at once so your dog will have lots of personal attention. Drop off and pick up times are from 7:00 am - 9pm. We have a fenced in back yard and also live waking distance to a quiet greenway entrance for lots of sunny walks in nature for exercise if needed.


“Karissa and her kids were amazing with my Brinkley! Super sweet and communicative. Followed instructions and administered meds my pup needed. Will definitely be my go-to sitter in Raleigh!!”


“Rachel is a super star sitter! She watched Shasta all day for 3 days while I was in Raleigh working from out of town. My pup Shasta loves her. Normally he doesn’t want to leave me but he walked off happily with Rachel from my hotel where she kindly met us every morning and evening for drop off. Rachel’s communicative and easy to work with. Highly recommend.”


“Sloane was great with spade . This was our first time leaving him with someone and I feel we picked the right person for the job . Times changed last minute and she was able to accommodate with no problem . Will definitely use her again !!”


“Caroline was amazing with Blaze yet again! She kept me updated with photos and videos and Blaze was tired once he got home — meaning he had an eventful day! Thanks again!”


“She really took care of my baby like he was hers. I could tell he was comfortable and loved the whole time he was with her. I was nervous at first because that’s my heart, but the way she treated him and kept me updated gave me so much peace. You can tell she genuinely loves animals, and that’s all I could ever ask for. Thank you for taking such good care of him.”


“Adriann took Blaze in for 12 hours on a shorter notice with absolutely no issues. She took great care of him and provided many updates throughout the day. Blaze had so much fun he was exhausted when he got home! Thank you Adriann!”


About: I treat every pet like my own; lots of love, belly rubs, and snuggles included! Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness always come first in our home. My husband and I both work from home and are able to be in the home with your dog, let them out regularly and provide plenty of snuggles and belly rubs. We have a fenced in yard and one very friendly dog who loves to play. Your dog's safety and happiness will come first in our home.

“Nickie was a delight and our pup took right to her. She always greeted us with a smile and was great about sending us pics and even took him to the dog park on multiple occassions. Highly recommended.”


About: What sets me apart? I treat every pet like they’re my own—spoiled, loved, and showered with attention! Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, or just a cozy nap buddy, I adjust to their unique personality and needs. I have experience with all kinds of pets—from energetic puppies who need structure and training to sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and gentle care. I’m also great with shy or anxious pets, helping them feel safe and comfortable in my care. You can count on me for dependable, tail-wagging service with lots of photo updates (because who doesn’t love surprise pics of their fur baby during the day?). Let’s make your time away stress-free—for both you and your pet! Caring for pets is truly the best part of my day! I build my schedule around the pets I’m looking after, making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or cozy evening snuggles, I’m flexible and fully present for every furry friend I care for. Spending time with animals doesn’t feel like a chore—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I plan my week to make sure I’m never rushed, so your pet gets all the love, care, and time they deserve! Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m coming to your home, they’ll be treated like family every step of the way! In My Home: I provide a safe, cozy, and pet-friendly space with plenty of snuggles, playtime, and attention. Pets are free to roam, lounge, or explore (with supervision, of course!). I follow their usual routines and keep their favorite toys, treats, and comforts close by to make them feel right at home. In Your Home: I make sure to respect your space while giving your pet the love and attention they’re used to. I stick closely to their feeding, walking, and play schedules to keep everything familiar and stress-free. Plus, I always keep things tidy and make sure your pet is relaxed and happy while you’re away. No matter the location, your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priority!

About: I have taken care of my family dog for 5 years and focus on loving her the best that I can and look forward to doing the same with the pets that I care for with Rover! I am very flexible and will be at home most of the time so I can help take care of your dog at the drop of a hat! I have a very pet friendly home. I can keep them over night and make sure they are well taken care of while you are away.

About: My beloved furry friend is Ellie, a Jack Russell Terrier that is 14 years old. Ellie has been part of my family since she was just a few months old. I have experience with puppies and full size dogs with high-energy that are active and strong. I moved down to Raleigh recently and my dog currently lives with my parents. Where I currently live there are no pets or kids present. Before I moved I regularly cared for three large huskies (one was less then a year old) and a 4-year-old cocker spaniel. I am a caring, active, and responsible dog owner that will treat your pet(s) the same way. Responsibilities I believe are essential when it comes to taking care of a pet are providing them with routine walks and giving them plenty opportunity to regularly use the bathroom outside. As well as, providing them with a food schedule, play time, treats and daily clean water. I am an active person that enjoys running outside, so if you have an energetic dog I will gladly run with them! I live in a dog friendly community with plenty of room for walking and playing. I am currently working part-time and have availability during the week and weekends to care for your furry friend. I look forward to caring for your pet! My apartment complex is pet friendly and has plenty of greenery! During our outside walks and playtime I will ensure your pet receives shade and bathroom breaks.

“Katie was fantastic in all aspects! She was very easy to communicate with, accommodating of a last minute booking and flexible with pickup time, and Brooklyn seemed to have a wonderful time with Katie and her two dogs! Thank you so much Katie! Highly recommend!”


“Julie was so sweet and caring to not only Lily but me as well. She’s really great with communication, sending multiple updates throughout the day and answering very quickly. I know Lily was well taken care of. Thank you Julie :)”


About: I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs through the years, as well as dog sat and house sat since I was a teenager. I enjoy the work and would love to hang out with your pup! I work from home full time, so am happy to have your pup stay with me. I can easily take work breaks to walk too! We are in an apartment with a decent sized balcony and a dog park! Such a dog friendly place. I also love next to East Campus and love walking dogs around it. I work remotely from home so will have lots of time with your pup! There’s a dog park at my apartment, and lots of walking areas. I’ve babysat and house sat for years! I’m super organized and clean, and my goal is to leave you home cleaner than you found it!
