“We have a small puppy and Tori has been wonderful! She has been helping with drop in visits for 4 weeks now. Tori plays fetch with her and keeps her happy with snuggles. I love the pictures and updates she sends. Tori has also assisted in correcting a scheduling error I made. Thanks Tori!”

“Sarah took wonderful care of our girls! They were clearly well cared for and loved while we were out of town. Prompt communication, very reliable, and great care for our pups. Thank you Sarah!”

“Rodrigo was available on short notice to provide drop in visits for my dog Seamus. He provided updates and was very professional and plan on using his services in the future”

About: I've taken care of pets, more specifically dogs since I got my dog, and have cared for my best friend ever since. Recently I also got an adorable stubborn little huge puppy that I have love taking care of. I'm currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to take care of your best friends! I am more specifically available a lot during the day and evening! I will do everything I can do and am ask to do to make sure your pets are kept safe and have a fun time!
About: Hey there! I’m Nikki, and the adorable doodle you see in the photos is, Bear… He is one loved pup and he certainly knows it (spoiled too)! Animals have always been one of my greatest passions. Growing up on a farm I was surrounded by many of all kinds. I’ve always been trusted with caring for family & friends pets, and Rover has been a great way to introduce Bear to some fur-friends of his own! I have experience working with puppies & those with a tad more energy than most, as well as caring for elderly pups who may require additional attention, including administering medication, vitamins, etc. During the work week, Bear and I go on walks in the morning and enjoy some much-loved playtime at the dog park located in our neighborhood. I work from the office Monday-Thursday and take an extended lunch break to allow time for a mid-day walk as well. In the evenings we typically do a longer walk around Lake Johnson, or head over to the big dog park at Lake Benson. We love being active outdoors! I tend to be a homebody on the weekends and the dogs in my care are rarely left alone, allowing for plenty of potty breaks and lots of extra love and attention! I have a large, open concept apartment, allowing the dogs full access to me at all times. There’s also a fenced in dog park located directly in our neighborhood... And a dog spa! When I do have to step out for a quick errand, I always ensure the pups are left alone in a safe environment, according to the needs of each dog (size, temperament, potty needs, etc.). My home is monitored by video cameras throughout the day to ensure the safety of the dogs in my care while I’m away at work.
“Hannah has done a great job once again! This was my second time having Hannah come check on the animals while I was away for vacation and the pictures I received throughout reassured me that the cats were getting the best care possible. When I got back home it seemed like the house was honestly better than I left it and the cats were happy and would not stop talking about their great babysitter. Highly recommend for anyone wanting the best care for their pets!”

“Allison is amazing!! After reading all her great reviews and our first meet-up, I knew without a doubt that I picked the best sitter! Roscoe had 2 surgeries on April 18th, and needs some extra post-surgery care with extra feedings and potty breaks while we are at work. Allison did two twice a day drop-ins to help with Roscoe's needs and is doing again for us this week. We couldn't be happier!! She went above and beyond taking great care of Roscoe. Her professionalism and sweet caring heart does not go unnoticed! Roscoe said he can't wait to spend more time Allison when boarding is needed in the near future!”

“This was my first time booking with Rover and I’m very happy with how it turned out all thanks to Emily! She took lots of photos, let me know how the time went with Birdie and I will definitely be reaching out to Emily for future visits.”


“Nicole is awesome! She came to my house took my dogs out, made sure they had food and water, played with them a little and even brought them a toy! I will definitely rebook with her.”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 9. My friends, neighbors, and other family members have entrusted me with their furry friends! I have two dogs of my own. Allie is my sweet 10 year old beagle and Luke is my silly little (but big) 6 year old yellow lab. They have taught me how to have patience with dogs and to know when it’s time to play or nap. I have some level of pet training with having to train my dogs with simple commands from when they were puppies. I have dogs of different sizes that I also taught me how to take care of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I will love and care for your pets as well as attend to the environment around them. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs who need a little more attention then others. I am committed to making not only your pet but also you feel comfortable and trusted with me. I am currently a part time employee at American Eagle so I will have plenty of time to play and hang out with your furry friends. I am also a student at UNC which allows me to create a flexible schedule to accommodate all of your pet’s needs. In my own home I care for my pets by playing with them, feeding them on time, taking them on walks after each meal and during the day to help them get exercise. I also care for my pets by being in the same room as them so that they feel loved. In a clients home, I strive to treat each pet as if it was my own, by providing for them the same as I provide for my dogs.
“Katie was very attentive to the animals and communication was great and she was on time and didn’t leave early! She sent lots of pictures which we love. I would recommend Katie and use her services again in the future without hesitation.”

This was our first time having Tori as our sitter and she was wonderful! She left detailed updates and photos after each visit. She was very attentive to the needs of our cat. Upon our initial meeting she was very friendly and engaging. Overall, a great experience. Thank you, Tori!
Erica was wonderful! She was very kind, reliable, and took great care of my cat while I was away. I really appreciated her updates and the peace of mind she provided throughout the stay. It was clear that she genuinely cared, and I would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!

Hannah did a wonderful job taking care of my babies while I was out of town! My cats are very shy, and Hannah made sure to find them in their hiding spots, check on them, and ensure they were safe and taken care of. She made my vacation much more relaxing, and I loved seeing the daily pics of my cuties! 💕

I contacted Reagan on short notice (2 days) and thankfully she was able to help us. We communicated by text. She responded to my text in a timely manner, arrived on time, loved on my dogs, gave updates, and secured home. I look forward to working with Teagan in the future!
I left my babies for a week while I was on vacation. The first time ever. I was so nervous because my sitter plans had fell through. Dawn to the Rescue! I was able to book Dawn for drop in visits with my 3 cats and she was spectacular! She sent pictures and videos every day, which eased my mind greatly. She was very communicative and made sure she was attentive to my babies. I appreciate her greatly! Thank you Dawn! I will definitely be booking in the future. 🥰

This was my first time using Rover and I feel so lucky to have picked Meredith as my first official cat sitter. She was punctual, followed all the really specific instructions for my picky cat, and sent the funniest and silliest pictures. She even folded the blankets on the couch. Literally an angel and as long as she is available, I can’t imagine using a different pet sitter!
