“I cannot express how much I appreciated the service. Above and beyond in all respects. Pretty last minute booking, very quick to respond. So sweet and kind. Top notch communication and sent all kinds of pictures. Even swept up the litter and did other extras that were absolutely more than was needed. So very appreciative. Absolutely the best pet sitter experience! Thank you so much for your time and effort. You're amazing!”


“Abbigail was great with my dog and loved the pictures she took and sent to me with updates. It’s hard to leave my dog and be out of town, but with Abby I felt more comfortable. I will be rebooking again when I need to go out of town.”


“We can't say enough how much we appreciate having Taylor take care of our dogs when we have to travel. Our newest rescue, Lila, who is afraid of everyone, accepts Taylor right away and hangs out with her on the couch. We know that our pups are on good hands whenever we leave.”


“Stefanie has stayed at our home several times now, and we couldn’t be luckier to have such a terrific sitter for our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She’s terrific and the pets just love her!”


“Allison house and cat sat for us while we were on our destination wedding trip. Our cat Phoenix is pretty shy, but I knew I wanted someone here with her since we’d be gone for about a week. Allison sent us daily videos of Phoenix slowly warming up to her and I knew Phoenix was in great hands.”


About: Having grown up on a farm, caring for animals has always been second nature to me—especially dogs. From an early age, I learned the responsibility and joy that comes with tending to animals of all kinds, ensuring they are happy, healthy, and well cared for. Many of the pets I have today were either rescues or animals I took in to help owners during times of transition. Currently, our family dog is nearly 15 years old and requires specialized care due to multiple health issues. This has given me extensive experience in administering medications, monitoring health conditions, and providing the patience and attention that senior dogs require. Whether it’s a young, energetic pup or an older dog needing extra care, I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every pet. Dog sitting isn’t just about supervision—it’s about ensuring each dog feels at home, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. With my background and deep love for animals, I strive to make every dog feel like part of the family. I work from home and run my own business, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive and loving care for pets. Being home throughout the day allows me to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times. I provide a safe, loving environment where pets feel secure and at ease. From feeding and playtime to administering medications and offering plenty of affection, I tailor my care to each animal’s needs. Whether they need extra attention, a calm space to relax, or special care, I make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home.

“Jayla was great! This was the first time we used Rover. It was great having the peace of mind to enjoy a dinner with friends not worrying about the fact our dog Tully would l have an accident, etc. if if left alone at night time for more than an hour. or so. We would absolutely ask Jayla to watch Tully again.”


“This was a last minute booking and I truly appreciate Ben's flexibility. The dogs loved him and the knowledge that my pups were happy and being well cared for is priceless. Ben was communicative throughout and was diligent in obtaining the critical information about diet and personalities of my two dogs. Highly recommend!”


“Jen is an awesome sitter and always does more than expected. Our Westie is diabetic and has a pacemaker so he needs special care. Jen did not hesitate giving him shots and carrying him in and out. Jen took out the trash, picked up the yard, watered the plants and washed /dried her sheets. Contact Jen and see for yourself!”


“Kaylee was awesome with our boys! We have a 14 year old Westie that is blind and diabetic who is very finicky when it comes to eating. Kaylee was up for the challenge and did whatever it took to feed him so he could get his insulin shot. Booked Kaylee again in a few weeks and for two weeks in the spring!”


About: I have been watching family friends' dogs for approximately 7 years. I am attentive and I get attached easily, so loving your pet will not be hard! I adore animals. When I am not working, I am taking visits and walking dogs. During my work break, I am making pit stops at home to let dogs potty, and give them lunchs. When I am house-sitting, I primarily stay at the house so I can keep an eye on both the animals and the house. I will do whatever is needed for the animals, whether that be medications at exactly 6 am to routine feedings. Whatever the animal needs, I try my best to fulfill it!

About: I’m very dependable, and I’ve always lived with a pet, both inside and out. Also two years ago, I also volunteered at an animal shelter. I do not work but since I play basketball at Eckerd College , I’m mostly available on weekends and also weekends in the mornings on weekdays. I’m the house, I’ll make sure your pet doesn’t wander off. If you don’t have a fence outside, I’ll make sure they’re wearing a collar.

“Zach went above and beyond. This was our first time using this service. He continously updated us with how our animals were doing and sent countless pictures. He loves animals and will use him again in a heartbeat.”

“Josh was fabulous! Our dog really needed extra care emotionally since we had to have our other dog put down a month ago. Josh was here with him most of the time! During the meet and greet he took meticulous notes! He even brought him a treat (after checking with me.) Josh was able to administer several different meds too with confidence. His communication and pictures throughout his stay was a wonderful way to keep up with his care. He's very responsive, responsible, respectful, and kind. I will use him in the future and look forward to keeping in touch with him!”

Pittsboro pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first time using Rover and this was an extended vacation. Needless to say we were a bit anxious about the care of our dog and senior cat. Jen did a fantastic job and really set our mind at ease prior to our trip. She checked in with us to let us know our animals were doing well, and was responsive to our messages during the trip. We would definitely recommend Jen to those looking for someone to look after their animals.
