“My usual cat sitter was unavailable for an upcoming work trip, so she passed Jordan’s info along to me, and I can totally see why. She was incredibly kind and took such great care of my cat while I was gone on a work trip. I’d highly recommend booking her to care for your pet!”

“Katherine did a wonderful job caring for my dog, Sherlock. From the start, she was warm, reliable, and clearly experienced. She made sure Sherlock had plenty of playtime, gave him lots of love and attention, and was always gentle and kind. She also took great care in making sure he was safe, comfortable, and well-fed throughout the check-in. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable hands. I would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 12 years old! From just stopping in during the day to spending weeks at your home, my friends, family, and neighbors have all relied on me to watch over their pups! I am home for the summer (May-August) and have a very flexible schedule, with availability on the weekends! Mornings and afternoons work best, but I am open to evenings as well. I can easily crate, cuddle, feed, let out, play, or just hangout with your pup! I can pop by quickly or take your dog on a walk!!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and started accompanying my mom to vet appointments starting at 13! During college, I worked at Animal Medical Hospital as an ICU Veterinary Assistant for two years. I am able to take care of dogs of all ages and sizes as well as those who require extra daily assistance including medications, injections, etc. I am currently searching for full time jobs as a recent graduate from NC State University. I am available everyday as of now, since I have no prior commitments to jobs. I ensure that my pets and others are fed when they need to be as well as taken out multiple times throughout the day. In addition, I make sure the water bowls are always filled up and even sneak in some treats throughout the day after walking outside or playing outside! I make sure to give my pets lots of love during the day as well:)
“Rachel was an amazing dog walker for my two dogs, Miso and Kobe. I was very afraid and hesitant to try out Rover due to my dogs being Shiba Inus, who are known to be sneaky and escape artists. Rachel made me feel extremely comfortable and confident in her. She even reassured me when I thought I was overdoing it with my instructions, telling me there was nothing wrong with making sure my pups were going to be okay. She followed all the instructions I gave and was able to figure out the app my apartment uses as a key without any issues. My pups loved her, and I was able to breathe knowing they were well taken care of. If you’re a nervous dog mom like me, Rachel is the sitter to pick!”
“Sophie has been excellent. She does drop in visits and overnight stays with my girls. They love her. She is very attentive to them and respectful of my home while I’m away. She communicates very well and I always feel like I know what’s going on with my girls even when I’m traveling. Highly recommend her and I am super grateful to have found someone I trust.”
“Gretchen was great taking care of out little kitty. Thank you.”
About: I've taken care of family friends dogs since I was 17, including next door neighbors or caring for senior dogs and extending their life spans. This includes but is not limited to multiple visits throughout the day (within a 5-7 mile radius), walking, playing, managing schedules, delivering medications and assisting neighbors if necessary. I am a sports broadcaster, pet care during the daily hours fits perfectly into my routine. I can sit and prepare my notes while hanging with your furry family member, while also ensuring they have a close eye on them when present. However, that means nights and weekends are hard as they are mainly booked with work. I care for pets the way YOU want them treated. Low maintenance and to themselves? Great. Need extra love and support from bouncing back after an injury or trip to the vet? Understood. Need a mid-day walk to keep them at bay once you return from work? You got it. Just leave a sticky note with instructions and habits and I'll follow it to a T.
“Kellie was a great help when we were in town for the PGA Championship. She came by to meet the pups and get a lay of the land the evening before we needed her. She also was fabulous when one of our nervous pups had an accident in the house. We truly appreciated her communication and reliability. Highly recommend!”
“Brandi helped us out last minute when our sitter fell through. She was great and spent time with our cats! They aren’t usually friendly with strangers but they seemed to really like her and animals always know best about people. Highly recommend.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and love them to pieces, they are a humans best friend! I love all breeds and just want to be the best of friends with your doggo, I frequently pet sit my dogs best friend and they always have a blast! I work full time 9-5 M-F but have previously balanced pet sitting with this same work schedule and have been extremely successful with providing the appropriate care needed. I have a dog named Aloe and two bunnies that free roam in my studio apartment. I frequent an old golf course with my dog and we are always walking and playing fetch!

“Aidyn is amazing! Our gaggle of pets (2 dogs and 1-2 cats) require a lot and she handles it all so well that we can actually not worry about our pets when we are gone!!!! That is everything to us to feel so confident that your pet sitter can take such great care of your quirky crew and she certainly does. We don’t ever worry when she is caring for them. She is the absolute BEST!!!”

Jo did a great job with Willow! She was even able to make slight changes in the schedule to help us out. Will definitely be booking again. 💕
We feel so lucky to have found Brandi to care for our kitty! She clearly loves what she does and provided excellent communication and regular photos. 😻 We could definitely tell a difference from other pet sitters, because when we came home, our sweet boy was well-groomed (he won’t let just anyone near him with the furminator comb, haha!) and seemed relaxed. In addition, the litter box was immaculate. In the past, we’ve arrived home to find him stressed and mangy-looking. When your pet is truly a member of your family, you hope to find someone who will love on him when you are away— Brandi did just that!
Caroline was excellent! She came over for a meet and greet with very short notice and was able to watch my 2 pups for 5 days, 4 check ins a day. She was reliable and great with the dogs - they seemed to really love her. She was a great communicator too and kept me up to date everyday. Would definitely use again!
Susanna was great! She was on time every day and did everything and more that was asked of her! Such as bringing in our Amazon packages and fixing our decorations that our cat knocked down. We will 100 percent be asking her to watch our cat again!
Grace and my cat Millie have spent numerous visits together. It’s such a relief to know that Millie is in good hands when Grace stops by for dinner and treats! No worries!
Matthew was amazing. His continued communication and updates were much appreciated. Will utilize his services again.
First time using Rover, and really impressed with Sara. She was great answering our questions beforehand, and did a great job with Zelda! Fun pictures and a nice write up as well. Highly recommended!
We have used Chrissy a few times now and we are always pleased with her communication, photos, and cleanliness. We have 2 high anxiety cats and she has cleaned puke for us while we have been away! This is a big help for us upon returning home. We will continue to book Chrissy!
Rachel was such an awesome fur baby sitter! She sent us pictures and kept in high communication on how our guy was doing. Thank you so much Rachel!!!
Carly was amazing! She was able to watch our pups on short notice and did a great job. She sent great updates and photos. I would definitely use Carly’s services again. Thank you, Carly!!
Shelbie did a great job of caring for our two older cats, one of whom needs medication twice/day on a regular schedule. They both are on different diets for medical issues and she kept it all straight. We got regular feedback from Shelbie and great photos while we were gone. To top it off she seemed to enjoy our cats who are a bit quirky.
Abbie is always great! Our puppy loves her and she is always responsive and communicates what’s going on. Highly recommend her to look after your pet!
