1. Mindy S.

“Mindy was THE BEST. We have two dogs that are used to a lot of interaction- and they were more than happy with her in her lovely home. We received lots of photos and videos which made us feel able to enjoy our stay in the OBX. Highly recommend.”


2. Sara M.

“Kovu loved Sara and her pup Theo! He had a great time playing in the backyard and relaxing on the furniture. Sara was very respondent and sent lots of photos to make me feel good about leaving my pup behind.”


3. Flannery S.

“Flannery was wonderful! She was able to take my pup pretty last minute and was very communicative while I was away. Titan was very well cared for and I received photo updates frequently. Will definitely trust her with my fur baby any time!”


4. Erin R.

“Erin was phenomenal. She was very communicative and flexible - we wanted to pick our dog up every so often and bring her to the beach to play, and she was so great about it. She has an incredible yard and gave our dog so much playtime - we got videos of her playing with the kids in the backyard, swimming in the pool, couldn’t have been happier. Can’t wait to come back next year!”


5. Merida G.
“Merida is a wonderful caretaker for our two dogs, she always goes out of her way to make sure they have everything they need. She’s an active person and loves to take them on adventures, but also loves a snuggle session too. I always know my dogs are safe and happy when they are with her and she is thorough in her care for any of their special needs.”


6. Carl C.
“Carl has always been an animal lover. He has a soft passionate side for all animals. He especially loves chocolate labs as he recently lost his best friend of twelve years, Toffee, to lung cancer and got Pippin shortly after whom he adores. When he was younger he had a tuxedo cat who would walk past everyone in his house and would meow “Carulll”. Animals love him. Hands down I would recommend him for this position. Your pets will also love him as he is fabulous with all of his interactions with all animals.”




7. Elizabeth D.

“We were having a hard time finding someone through Rover who was available to help watch Bentley, but Elizabeth was super accommodating and took in Bentley even though she was already watching another dog (she had the owner's approval for Bentley to join). From our first interaction, we knew Bentley was being left in great hands. She's very friendly, attentive, and does her best to maintain your dog's normal schedule. Not to mention Bentley had the best time with her dog Sprinkles, and loved sitting out back with her. We received updates and pictures as requested, and could tell Bentley was having a blast. Anytime we are in the area again, we will definitely be reaching out!”




8. Jade I.


“Jade and her family took such good care of Mishka! It was the best experience for her! I had never left Mishka for two nights before so I was nervous but I couldn’t of found a better pet sitter! Mishka had so much fun playing with the other dogs and she got so much love and attention!”


9. Mary M.

“Mary was absolutely wonderful with my girl while I was on vacation. I was able to go get her or just visit with her during the day and coordinating was super easy. Would absolutely use Mary again to watch my pup!”


10. Rose N.

“Rose is the absolute best! Andrew loved his private suite, being able to run and play around the farm. Her farm is amazing. The facility is in pristine condition and you can tell she is an awesome animal lover. Definitely will be using her again in the future. I highly recommend Rose.”


11. Rachel "Ali" H.
About: Looking for a cozy, attentive place for your furry friend while you are away? I offer in-home dog sitting for well-behaved dogs who enjoy companionship, playtime, and plenty of care. Your dog will have a chance to bond with my two large friendly dogs, Cassidy and Riley, who love making new friends. My cat, Nala, prefers to stay out of the way ensuring a low-stress environment for all pets. Since I work from home, your pup will never feel lonely and will enjoy frequent attention, belly rubs, and day-long supervision. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where your pet will feel right at home. Perfect for dogs who enjoy socializing and being part of a caring household. Message me to discuss your dog's specific needs and to schedule a meet-and-greet! Our pets are positively spoiled! We love to throw frisbee in our back yard and go for walks. I work from home so the pets are rarely alone. Our doggies will have supervised time in our large yard and they are allowed on the couch but typically like to lay on the floor. Pets sleep in their own pet beds.


12. Rachel A.
“Rachel is the best "dog auntie" in the world!! My mini dachshund Baloo was always so thrilled to hang with her because she is so fabulous when taking care of him. Rachel is great at knowing what he needs and goes above and beyond to make sure he is well taken care. I can count on her to be friendly and reliable every single time. She's the best!!”


13. Kellie J.
“Kellie’s dogs are not just pets they are family! She will give your dog the tender loving care you want for your fur baby!! Highly recommend!!!”
