“Jack had a great stay with Alexandra and her sweet dogs. She sent a ton of photos and updates and I knew Jack was in great hands while we were away. He can’t wait to come back!”
“Our dog LOVES going to Victors house. He always has great doggy friends to play with and comes home happy every time. We deeply trust Victor with our schnoodle Tucker and it brings us such peace of mind to know he is safe and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Nathan and Courtney are good people who opened their home to our beloved dog, and also to us when we paid them a visit. Excellent almost daily communication with pictures were provided. Penny was taken on daily walks, and also entertained by their gentle kitties, dog and other barnyard pets! She was calm and happy when we picked her up.”
“Monica’s always so responsive and allowed me to drop off the dogs early to make sure I got to my flight on time! We really appreciate her family welcoming our dogs into their home!”
“My dog Star was well taken care of. He was provided with lots of cuddles and hugs while I was away. I think he even got a bath of some sorts. I will use Brooke again to watch Star if I go out of town. Thanks!”
“If I had to guess I would say our dog, Blue, loved his time spent with Heather. She is responsive and maintained a very open line of communication with us (complete with plenty of photos of our big boy having fun). I would have Heather watch Blue again without a doubt. She is great!!”
“Darlene did a great job taking care of Rupert! He looked very happy and healthy when we picked him up. Will definitely book with Darlene again!”
“Annie is great with our 2 older dogs. Daily updates and photos showed us they are being taken care of with love and patience......they settled in nicely and Annie and her husband treat our dogs just as they do their own. We highly recommend Annie!”
“So amazingly sweet, was able to help me for a near last minute situation with my cat and she made accommodations for my shy cat. 10/10 will only ever use her again and would certainly recommend!”
“Our dog has been taken very good care by Ciara during Christmas holiday for ~10 days in her home. Ciara sent me pictures or messages of our dog to keep me updated on each day. She is very kind and also very prompt to reply me on Rover messages. I am very satisfied. Thanks Ciara very much!”
“Hailey was amazing with our sweet boy! I would gladly recommended her to anyone looking for quality pup care; in fact, I already have. Our prior arrangements with a family member had fallen through at the last minute before our vacation when I contacted Hailey. She was quick to respond, kind, and very flexible given the circumstances of it being so last minute. Still being a first time Rover user, as well as it being our little guys first stay away, I was nervous, but I can honestly say that I couldn't be more pleased. The pictures and texts were so reassuring throughout our trip, and she even gave him a bath and brushed him prior to his return! I will definitely be using her again in the future, and am so thankful to have found her. Thank you again so much, Hailey!”
About: Before I became a firefighter I was a vet tech for 6 years. I have been caring for small and large breed animals for over 15 years. I have Experience with aggressive animals as well. The best part about being I the fire service is that we get our schedules a year out so If you have future vacation plans I’ll be able to let you know my availability asap! If your fur baby needs extra snuggles.. I’m here for it! Play time? Just let me know their toy of choice and let’s burn Off some of that energy!
About: My husband and I have been fostering dogs since February 2023. Sadly (or happily, rather), several of those fosters became foster fails. We went from having 1 dog and 2 cats to 4 dogs and 4 cats…but we wouldn’t have it any other way :) Our 4 cats are all extremely friendly and loving. Charlie is 6, Harley is 3, and Sweet Potato and Clementine just turned 1. Every single one of our dogs is a rescue. Molly is 9 months, Banjo is 7 months, Mia is 10-12 years, and Georgie is 8-10 years. Molly & Banjo were rescued with Paws of the Pines Rescue based in Southern Pines, NC. Mia & Georgie are a sister duo that we found dumped in the woods, and are the best senior pups we’ve ever encountered. My husband and I care deeply for all animals and do this because we love it, not for the money. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you’re in need of care. We will do what we can to serve you! I (Megan) wake up at 4:30 daily to let the dogs out, walk them, and feed them breakfast. I leave for work at 6. Jacob then wakes up and cares for the dogs until he leaves for work at 7. The dogs are crated until we come home. After work they engage in another walk, training, puzzles, you name it, and are highly active until bedtime around 9. The cats have an automatic feeder and water fountain. They love lounging around in the living room if the dogs are calm. All 4 cats are friendly and curious. Harley hangs around outside most of the day and the orange brothers are in and out as they please. Charlie is mostly indoors with the occasional peek at the outside world. Pets that enter my home will remain in the main living area with the puppies. The cats in my home are free to roam through the whole house. Dogs will need to be crate trained and okay other pets. I will accommodate their meals according to the owners’ requests. We are an active family, so walks are common!
“We absolutely loved Kelsey! She was fantastic with Bentley. Kelsey sent us pictures and updates, took him on walks, played and snuggled him. I never had to worry about him and knew he was very well loved and taken care of. We would definitely use Kelsey again!”
“Maria kept us up dated with photos and video. Our Yrsa looked like she really was enjoying herself. She definitely had a a good stay and we will certainly choose Maria for future boarding needs. Feel very comfortable leaving Yrsa in Maria’s care.”
“Leroy LOVES staying with Jayme. She’s always sending videos and pictures and updates which makes me feel at ease about having to board him. Will use Jayme any chance I can to board my dog!”
“Super satisfied with Natalie's service. She was very communicative through the whole weekend, and would always send pics of what they were up to. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I have taken care of neighborhood pets since I was 8 years old. From letting dogs out mid-day to house sitting for extended periods of time. I have experience with a variety of needs and am happy to work with unique situations. There is a gap in my experience due to having children and focusing on my family! I am currently a stay at home mom of 4. I walk daily in the morning and night and would gladly bring your pup along! I am flexible and will work with your needs! Our home has a fenced in backyard and we live on a path for easy access to go on lots of walks. I have 4 young children who will love on and care for your pets as well as a golden retriever that will love having a friend around.
“Izzy was a great sitter, providing updates and asked questions as needed. Highly recommend her for your fur babies!”
“Shea is awesome and her dog Lacey is very sweet! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog Jack with her and she was extremely flexible with me when I had to deal with unexpected travel changes. I highly recommend her and will be using her again soon!”
