About: I have had animals all my life. Anything from a bird to a horse, I have taken care of. I do daily checklists for all of my animals plus my family's animals. We have a small farm located in Wadesboro. In our area, people like to drop off dogs specifically, so in the past, I have rehomed, taken care of & taken strays to the vet. I have taken part in multiple dog pregnancies of babies who have been dropped off on the side of the road, and puppies who were malnourished & needed attention. I have hands-on training experience with all three of my dogs, one was a stray, another from a shelter & the youngest came from the last litter of puppies that was put into my care. I currently work from home, every day when I wake up, inside animals get fed, watered & let out to potty. Then, I take care of the outside animals, which takes about an hour. After everyone is taken care of is when I start working & taking care of things personally. Chores, as we call them again happen around 6-7 p.m. I also have a few indoor animals who are taken on walks to use the bathroom almost hourly. I have watched friends & family's pets, as well as my own. I have three friendly dogs, they are all cat friendly & people friendly. I have crates indoors if an animal is preferred to be in a crate, I have three available litter boxes, scratching posts & toys for cats if needed, & I am home almost all the time so I am able to be as hands-on or off as needed for any fur baby.

“Alexus was by far one of the BEST Rovers I have used! She went above and beyond to take care of Micco and Momma. Don’t scroll past her when booking! I will definitely be trusting her with my pets the next time I am in need…”

“Terri had been such a great sitter!! I’ve used her multiple times now because of the great experience with her. The first time I used her she was so responsive to the booking request and was more than understanding of what I needed for my dogs. Every time she walks them I know they’re getting the right attention needed for two high energy dogs. They get to play and relieve some energy during the time Terri watches them! I highly recommend you book with her! She’s great!! Thank you Terri!!”


“Somyr did a great job with my pups. One of my dogs will bark your head off and I was a little nervous. After a few treats she told me he was fine and that was amazing to hear and let me know he was comfortable with her. I received the cutest pictures and will be booking again!”


About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a little girl. I’m offering to play with, walk, and care for your pets when you are busy. Throughout our time together I will send thorough updates as well as photos. I also have experience volunteering at a humane society, working at a vets office, and working at a grooming salon so I understand dog behaviors and overall care. I am doing this part time during weekdays and select weekends as I am a full time college student. I will be available as needed, as long as I have a few days of warning. I currently have one beagle with high anxiety and look after five other dogs of different breeds and sizes at varying times. I am invested in insuring your pet is comfortable and happy while also following any restrictions or rules that you have set forth. Otherwise its belly scratches, snuggles, and play time galore!

But I’ve learned the scent of their home/owner makes them more comfortable!) So book me starting today! Much love for animals and would love to help out✨ I am a stay at home mom, so I am here all day to give love, attention, and care.

About: My name is Brooke and I am a full time MLT student at Sandhills. I have been dog sitting on the side as well as babysitting to get me the money I need through college. I love all animals and would love to help in any way needed. I have had multiple dogs and cats growing up so I am used to animals. I do overnight stays as well as just checking in daily on animals.

About: The best feeling in the world is the interaction with a dog is the wag of happiness. The excitement of joy and love makes the day complete. Ever since I was little, I grew up with a dog and felt it completed a home. I accommodate my client’s daily routine schedule for their dog(s). It’s not about my time but theirs. What they do and don’t. I’m not going to break the routine just because they are away. Locations available: Cumberland County, Southern Pines & Garner. I’m back on Rover! My locations vary from Fayetteville, Clayton, Garner and Southern Pines. I Going away for a long weekend, I’ll be able available for your schedule. I respect my client(s) home as if it were my home. I keep everything organized and clean. I don't mind tightening up if needed ie. grabbing the mail and/or taking out the trash. Keeping the house up to par when you leave and come back will be no issue.

About: I've grown up caring for multiple breeds of dogs and some cats. I have adopted an older Lab Mix from a kill shelter and he is the sweetest, calm and loving dog. Large dogs are my specialty but I love smaller dogs as well. Caring for them comes natural, on top of giving them plenty of space to run and exercise. I am comfortable giving any dogs medications as I have experience giving my own the same. If there is any specification you'd like for dog boarding, I am more than positive those needs can be met. Walking dogs is an everyday activity I do to keep them mobile and active as well as myself! I just enjoy any type of companionship that comes with caring for dogs! I’m currently working from home which helps allow us to provide full time care for our animals, as well as yours! We’re able to be outside and play anytime throughout the day. We have a large fenced in back yard with lots of room to roam and play outside. With cameras in the front and back yard that helps us keep a close eye on their movement to ensure safety.

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!
