“Nicole was fantastic with my senior pups during her housesitting stay! Mobility issues and medications were handled with great care. Lots of cute pics were provided and my pups soaked up every minute of love and attention. Nicole has stellar communication skills and was very flexible when I had a last minute change in plans. I will definitely book her housesitting services again. I highly recommend her services!”

“Ayla went above and beyond!!! She took wonderful care of the dogs and was nonjudgemental about the rottenness of our fur babies. Not only that, but she watered the garden and spotted yellow jacket nests in the yard and sent me pictures so that I could locate them when I got home. I will use her again if I ever need a dog sitter!”

“Taylor is amazing! Thank you again for our second booking. She’s everything you want in a sitter. She was perfect with updates and photos. We came home to a clean house and a happy pup. Thank you Taylor!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Chenelle stayed at our home and took care of our two pups, Ado and Rainier, like they were her own. From the moment she arrived, I felt total peace of mind knowing they were in loving, capable hands. She kept us updated, sent sweet photos, and even left the house spotless when we returned. Our dogs were calm, happy, and clearly well-loved. Truly the best sitter experience we’ve ever had—we’ll absolutely be booking her again!”

About: I've cared for a wide range of animals in my life; but mostly cats and dogs. I've grown up taking care of cats and dogs and I find it very easy and fun to work with them. I've raised kittens and puppies, as well as elderly animals. I have no issues with feeding, walking, or cleaning up after any animal. During the end of 2024 and the beginning of 2025, I have some time off from college and want to spend that extra time interacting with pets! I can work every day of the week and the weekend and can also do overnight care. I have a very reactive dog at my house that can be hard to control, but I'm able to get him on walks without escaping my grip. I'm stronger than I look! But I also treat animals with the utmost respect and kindness. I don't believe in negative reinforcement and I will treat your pet like royalty!
“Michelle was great!!! My fur babies instantly gravitated towards her (that gave me peace of mind which isn't easy). She kept in touch, followed instructions and everything was as I'd left it. This was a a trial run prior to a longer stay coming up. Thank you Michelle for making them and me feel comfortable!!!”
“Kaelin did a wonderful job taking care of our house and two dogs for six days while we were out of town. She sent pictures daily and seemed to really enjoy her time with the dogs. I recommend her services wholeheartedly!”

“Whitney was an absolutely incredible dog sitter. My two boys just loved her and she followed all the routine routines perfectly. She went above and beyond tidying and cleaning up before she left as well. Would definitely book again.”

About: Growing up we had a family dog and Guinea pigs. As a young adult I was responsible for Jack Russell Terrier. Now I’m responsible for a three year old Terrier mix. I am an animal person. Neighbors, family, and friends rely on my to care for their dogs weekly. I have cared for dogs, guinea pigs, horses, cats( indoor and indoor/outdoor), fish, and a parrot before. I am always happy to learn to care for other animals. I work from home so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur family members. I do have weekly fur clients that I will need to take care of if I’m house sitting. I try to stick to your routine as much as possible when caring for your fur family members. I will spoil your pets with attention.
About: I have had pets my whole life and still currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a Guinea pig. I have been responsible for cleaning up after them, grooming, playing, and providing their medicine when needed. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters and have gained knowledge about different temperaments and personalities when working with the many dogs. Also in my time during high school I was one of the more reliable animal caregivers within the students. I am currently on summer break from college and I am available during most of the summer and would love to spend time with your pets while you take a nice vacation with the family! I spend lots of time with my pets at home and make sure they get the loving that they need. We cuddle, play, and even nap together. Within a clients home I would be happy to adjust and give the animal the cuddles they need or tug of war they want.
“John had been a lifesaver for when we were out of town during this recent ice storm, I can't imagine where we would be without him. He was so good with our dogs and I could tell they really bonded with him. We will definitely be using his services again and again and would recommend him to anybody!”

“Olivia took such good care of my boys while I was away and sent updates with pictures on every visit!! My two cats had so much fun with her, definitely put my mind at ease while I was gone knowing they were in such good hands!”

“This was my first time having Dawn watch my energetic corgi, Cornbread. Dawn did absolutely amazing with her! Cornbread just loves to play and Dawn gave her plenty of attention while I was away and sent plenty of pictures and videos. She kept me updated each day on Cornbread’s health, that she was fine with eating/staying hydrated, and behaving well. She also brought her dog over so Cornbread would have a friend to play with. Lastly she went above and beyond and left a custom sticker of Cornbread from her visit! Would absolutely love to book again with Dawn!”


“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Amanda was great!!! She took great care of Nova and sent me plenty of pics and updates about my baby. She also left the cutest report card about her time with Nova and how everything went. Super dependable and kind!!”

About: I have cared for many pets in various neighborhoods of the local area. I provide basic needs and go above and beyond to make sure the pet feels comfortable and cared for while their family is away. I work full-time and will have time to care for pets in the mornings before work and anfternoons after work. I will still make an effort to ensure your pet sticks to their normal routine as close as possible. I require a meet and greet with the pets in their home (to prevent any territorial issues) before the service for any new clients. My current living situation prevents me from hosting pets in my own home, but I ensure the pet is safe and well taken care of in their home, following the care instructions left by the family.

Knightdale pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amy seamlessly managed our house of 4 pets while we were out of town for a few days, and provided us such a relief with her trusted care. Our pets can be high maintenance: 3 of the 4 require medication and one of our dogs needs a very slow introduction as she’s slow to warm up. We noticed our dog almost immediately settle in with Amy’s warm, calm demeanor and she was cuddled up next to Amy same day. We appreciated Amy letting us know when everyone was officially settling in for the night, and it was such a relief to know our pets were in good hands. We came home to a clean house as well. We’ll absolutely be using Amy again in the future!

Amaya was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at our house and took wonderful care of our two dogs - one of which is an older pup with some health issues who requires several daily medications. The dogs both loved her instantly, I felt such peace of mind knowing Amaya was with our fur babies.
Myeisha was absolutely wonderful. Communicative, timely, and stayed overnight at my house for 4 nights while we were on vacation. I’m truly grateful as she took great care of my dog and my cat and my home too, vacuuming, taking out the trash, and putting the bedding in the wash before she left. Truly wonderful!

This was our second time having Erin dog and house sit for us, and once again she was absolutely wonderful. We always feel completely comfortable leaving our home and dog in her care. Our dog adores her and was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned, and our house was in perfect shape. She communicates thoughtfully and clearly, which gives us so much peace of mind. We would not hesitate to recommend her and will happily have her sit for us again.
