“John N did a wonderful job with our two, somewhat challenging, dogs. They got long scenic walks and lots of TLC. He had to deal with some challenging situations and his communication with us was excellent. I had never used a dog sitter in-house before and the house was totally clean. He really seems to have affinity with dogs and committed to doing the best he can to take care of them. So glad he was able to dog-sit for us.”


“Janine housesat our anxious dog over a long holiday weekend and kept her company. She left our house just as we left it and was very attentive to our Dia.”


“This is our second time using Julia and she is without a doubt the best ever. Can’t wait to travel again knowing that Kimber is so well taken care of.”


“10/10 we love having Morgan watch our two dogs who are definitely skiddish of strangers but they love her and she does so well with them! We booked the over night stay and it helps our dogs so much, they don’t do well in boarding facilities because they get very stressed. Knowing they’re able to stay at the house where they’re happy and taken care of helps us enjoy our time away from them stress free. Thank you Morgan and we will be booking again in the future!”


“Michelle cared for my 2 fur babies (Shih Tzus) for a week. She kept in constant contact via text, pictures and went out of her way to allow me and them to feel comfortable. My home was just as I left it, sparkling clean. I would definitely request her again!!!”

“Erica was punctual, polite and very kind! She was excellent with my 4 kiddos! I will most definitely have her again!”


“Marisa is very personable and professional at the same time. Our GSP puppy was very happy to partake in all the exercise and play opportunities she frequently offered. She treated our home respectfully and left it very clean. We will certainly be asking her to come again!”


“Haley was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!! She constantly kept me in the loop about my doggies and sent me a ton of pictures. I can’t thank her enough, cause this is the first time I’ve used rover as an actual client, as I’m a sitter on rover myself, so I’m usually on the sitter side.”


About: Hi there! I’ve had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine a home without them. I’ve cared for pups of all ages from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, and I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether we’re going on long walks, playing fetch in the yard, or just cuddling on the couch, I’m all in. I’ll treat your dog like they’re part of my own pack because that’s how I’d want mine cared for too. I work part-time at my office in Goldsboro, from nine to one. So I have plenty of time and they’ll never be left alone too long. I’ll care for your animals as I would my own, safety is my number one priority. Walk will always be done with a leash and playtime will always be done in a safe area, if not inside the home.

About: I have worked in animal shelters. I have rescued stray and abused animals and helped located their owners and if I couldn't I kept them until they were ready to find a home. I am currently taking college courses to become an animal cop I want to continue to save the abused and neglected animals. I treat my pets like family. I have helped animals including babysitting in my home and at the residents for 18 years. I have worked at the animal shelter and volunteered there. My passion for animals has never changed. My kids also love animals. They have sat and watched animal cops with me and they say to me mommy we need to help them they need a family. It's sweet seeing my kids feeling the same passion as I do. I am a stay at home mom I do babysit kids during the week. I make sure all dogs get exercise while in my home. I have one 12 year old dog I allow all the animals to free roam unless I start seeing some aggression then I do separate bathroom times and things.

“Thank you so much for stepping in last minute and taking care of my 3 small crusty dogs and my sweet kitties! I appreciate all of the love you tried to give them - I know they are very difficult! I will definitely call you again!”


“Francesca is awesome! 5 out of 5 would recommend! Having never used this site or a dog sitter I was a little hesitant to let a stranger stay in my home and take care of my dog Stormy, but after meeting Francesca all my concerns were put to rest. She went above and beyond while taking care of Stormy. Daily updates and pictures made it so much easier to relax knowing my girl was getting lots of love and attention. She even got Stormy to eat all of her food which was HUGE! Every time have left town and had friends check on her she hardly eats anything. Francesca will be my number one choice anytime I plan on leaving town again!”

About: 17 animals live in my zoo. Just kidding it's not a zoo but I truly love all animals. I have a soft spot for larger dogs who like to chill and relax and an even softer spot for all the cats and kittens in the world. I've had so many different animals in my adult years including hamsters, guinea pigs, a bearded dragon and now my 6 ducks, 7 cats and 4 large breed dogs. I do love little lap dogs as long as they let me sleep at night! I take care of all of mine everyday. I'm a teacher so I'm off every by 3 and also off everyday in the summer. I love walking with pups and cuddling with the kitties on the couch. I have a pretty large fenced in area and a few tie outs in my back yard. I have a very friendly pup who likes to play with others. If in your home I would take very good care to keep your house clean as this is something else that I do on a regular basis for friends and family as well. I love cleaning almost as much as I love animals. I do need written directions sent to me or left at the home because I will freak myself out thinking I have forgotten something if I don't have a check list.

“Brandi did a wonderful job watching my dog, MiaBella, while I was out of town for an extended period of time. She always kept me updated, sent me pictures, and took great care of the house while I was gone. Brandi’s love for pets is evident and my dog loved her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”


“Brianna was great! She dog sat out two dogs for 5 days, and when we got back they were clearly happy and well taken care of and the house looked great. Also very responsive when we texted her while away!”
