1. David G.

“David is fantastic! We had a last-minute dog sitter cancelation and wow did David come to the rescue. Our two dogs, one 6-month-old puppy and one super anxious 2-year-old spent the entire day over at David's, and honestly...I have never seen them happier from a doggy daycare pick-up! And we have done quite a few Rovers/daycares. The pups immediately loved David and his huge backyard. David was super responsive, asked for and delivered on our care instructions, and just provided an overall great booking/sitting experience. He will for sure be our go-to dog sitter from here on out!”


2. Lisa M.

“Lisa was phenomenal!! We reached out last minute when we needed to go out of town for a wedding and she responded immediately. Our dog Hudson seemed so happy and comfortable during his stay and Lisa kept us up to date, sending photos regularly. We’d highly recommend having Lisa pet sit for you if she is available!!”


3. Sara B.

“Mellie had an amazing time going to doggy daycare with Sara!! She is a very anxious girl typically but was always super excited at drop off and had the best time playing and sunbathing in the backyard and napping in the various cozy spots throughout Sara’s home. We will definitely be booking again!”

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and am a seasoned caretaker & lover of animals. I currently work for UNC after relocating from Seattle, WA, and I consider pets to be a part of the family! I am extremely diligent about pet care and needs, and I will happily supply any proof of happy pets while you are away. I have been a longtime pet sitter in my neighborhood and just discovered this site. As a dog owner, I know how it feels to be concerned about if a pet is happy while you're gone-- and that's what I'm here for! I have a flexible work and evening schedule and I am happy to accommodate any pets that need extra TLC during the day or while you're away. I am used to structuring my days around a pup's needs and have no problem doing so! I also have the added layer of working fully remotely if any last-minute needs arise. Since I am home often and personally have a dog, I am very used to structuring social outings and time out of the house based on a dog's schedule. (Feel free to reach out about any questions you have about mine -- she's a 5 year old whippet that gets along with any dog). I work fully remotely, so pups have plenty of sunshine and fresh air in our fenced backyard when I am working during the day. I am also happy to petsit in your home. Again, I'm fortunate to be so flexible in my work and social life.

About: I have been dog sitting for over a year now and am very experienced with taking care of pets. I am very compassionate towards animals and I hope to help with sitting your furry friends! I am a freelance artist and can fit most pet sittings into my schedule. I prefer a 1-2 week notice before bookings, but I always have compassion for last minute trips and family emergency’s. I’m available full time during the week, Monday-Sunday 8am-8pm and I am also available to stay at overnight house sittings as well as board at my own home in Hillsborough, NC. At my home, me and my partner share a two bedroom home in the country side of Hillsborough, NC. Just bordering Carrboro. As of right now we do not have a fenced in yard, but we do have a rather big one in the front and back of our home, and we’re happy to walk them on leashes. I am also available to stay in your home if you or your pet prefers that. I always make sure to take immaculate care of my client’s homes. I will leave your home spotless so that you come home to a welcoming, relaxing environment after a stressful day of travel.


20. Alex M.
“Alex is wonderful with our dog. She’s our first choice any time we need any kind of pet care- walking, day care, or overnight. We feel completely at ease when our dog is in her care and he gets so excited every time he sees her! We highly recommend her!”
