“Beth is the BEST! She is compassionate, loving, caring…she comes, she stays, she is the most awesome dog sitter! I have found a gem here on Rover! It’s not easy for me to leave my 2 corgis with anyone and she fits the part PERFECTLY! Beth walks them, plays all day with them, loves on them, sends many updates all day which makes me happy…8 night stay, come home to a clean house and well cared for puppies!! THANKS BETH for all you do!!! 💙💙”


“We were very nervous leaving our animals. We rarely don’t have someone home. Amanda put us at ease sending daily pics and giving us updates. The pups and the cat were well cared for in our absence. We have a 1 year old wild man who needs carefully watched and the house is still in tact 😂 Will definitely reach out again to her! Thank you Amanda”


“Shirley is really great to work with, communicated well and gave us great relief to be able to trust our pets with someone while we were gone.”


“Took great care of my babies”


“Mary is WONDERFUL!!! She was kind and attentive to our two dogs. She sent lots of pics and updates. We would love to have her back!! Our pups clearly loved her and we are so happy that we found someone we can trust to stay with our dogs.”


“Rebecca was fantastic! She rescued us on very short notice when our kennel was full. She sent lots of pictures of our dog cuddling up with her all weekend, so I know he was very comfortable with her and enjoyed having her stay with him. She went above and beyond by washing the sheets and taking out the trash. Will definitely use her again and I highly recommend Rebecca.”


“Christina is awesome, she was very attentive to all 5 of our dogs, and stayed in contact with us the whole time. Our home was clean and dogs were well cared for. Christina is great and I would gladly recommend her!!!”


“Clarisa was amazing! She was so sweet and took great care of our babies! She sent lots of pictures and was very communicative. We didn’t have to worry about our babies because we knew she was taking great care of them!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a calm, caring approach and reliable schedule. I have worked with dogs for two years at a local prestigious boarding facilities in New Bern, North Carolina. I currently work at a local farm in Vanceboro, North Carolina. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m mainly specializing in over night care. Can’t wait to meet your pet! When caring for pets, I always prioritize their comfort, routine, and happiness—whether it's during walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. For walks, I make sure each outing is safe, engaging, and tailored to the pet’s energy level. During drop-ins, I handle feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions with care and attention. For overnight stays, I maintain the pet’s regular routine in their familiar environment, giving them companionship and peace of mind while you're away. I treat every pet like family and every home with respect.

About: I am from Colombia and there I had the opportunity to work with him, in a family veterinarian where I learned a lot. Here in the United States I have been taking care of dogs and cats at home several times. It is important, since animals are part of my life and always will be, I also dream of one day having the money to be able to give a good life to several animals that currently live in a shelter. I keep them company, I sing to them, I play with them, I walk them, when they sleep in my house I always make them comfortable and I am aware of all their behavior, especially because I know they miss their owners.

“Sabrin was great! She typically doesn’t do large size dogs, but she decided to meet mine and he loves her. My Pomsky is usually stressed and can be standoff but she went straight to Sabrin and begged for attention. My cat (willow) who usually stays away from strangers but came out to greet Sabrin and even allowed Sabrin to pick her up. I was very pleased with Sabrin and how flexible she was with my sudden change in vacation days/times. I highly recommend and will be asking for her services again! Thank you Sabrin:)”


About: Hi there! I’m Z, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a deep understanding of both cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs and have a wonderful cat of my own. I also have years of experience caring for the pets of both my family and friends. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or ensuring your pet sticks to their routine, I treat every furry friend like they’re part of my own family. As someone who works part-time during the day, I have the flexibility to provide pet care in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. My schedule allows me to plan drop-in visits, walks, or playtime around your pet’s needs. Caring for animals is a natural part of my routine since I already care for my own cat. Whether it’s an early-morning visit before work or evening cuddles, I’m happy to adapt to ensure your pet feels loved and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and happy in their familiar surroundings. I stick to their established routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, or walks, to keep things consistent and comforting for them. For dogs, that might mean exciting walks or outdoor play, while cats might prefer quiet companionship or engaging with their favorite toys. I make sure their environment stays clean and safe, and I’m happy to administer medications or meet any special needs. Along with meeting their physical needs, I give plenty of cuddles and attention to help them feel secure and loved. I treat every pet like part of my own family, ensuring they’re well cared for until their owner returns.

“Abigail did an amazing job taking care of our two old dogs Cooper and Lilly. She was prompt, spent lots of time making sure they got attention, snuggles, and outdoor time. She sent lots of pictures and updates so we knew they were doing well. Strongly recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter and will definitely work with her again in the future!”


“Emma did an amazing job watching our dog for the weekend. She was punctual, communicative, and thorough. We knew our girl was in great hands and we will definitely have her back!”


About: I have over 6 years of experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I have a passion for animals and plenty of references. I have very friendly, socialized dogs of own who are spayed & neutered and up to date on vaccines. I have worked in animal welfare and have clinic experience, so no need to worry when you’re away. I’ve been to several dog behavior and training seminars. I’ve been trained in how to introduce dogs and read body language. I’ve managed play groups at my local humane society and enjoy studying dog behavior. I can teach basic commands and leash training. Basic grooming is covered at my place! I can do baths, ear cleanings, and nails trims. 🥰 Your kids are safe with me! 🐾 I have a pretty flexible schedule, leaving me plenty of time to exercise and train your pet! I have a fenced in yard for potty breaks, and afternoons can be spent doing training and leash etiquette, as well as play time with or without the other dogs. I have 3 very friendly dogs, so your pup will always have someone to play with! If they need a break, I can accommodate that as well as I have crates and a spare bedroom. Your pup will go on daily walks, get enrichment of your choice, and cute pictures to update you on how they’re doing.
