Top rated Rockingham doggy day care sitters

“Lucia is, by far, the best dog sitter we have ever trusted our dog with. She’s incredibly attentive and flexible with our schedule, and our dog loves seeing her every time we drop him off. She is amazing, and we would give her 10 stars if we could! Thank you Lucia!”


“My girl Rizzo LOVES hanging at Alexandria’s house and I enjoy working with her! She sends great pictures and updates, Rizzo gets so excited to go over there so I know she is being well cared for.”



“Brooke and her family were great! They clearly took great care of my pup as he was content around her, but worn out and ready to nap by the time we got in the car. She was really flexible and great at communicating. Would recommend and will use again in the future!”


“Jennifer was very accommodating and friendly. We dropped our dog two days in a row for daycare, and he was very happy when we picked him and excited to return the next day. We will definitely go to Jennifer again when we’re back in Pinehurst.”


“Charlotte had a great day with Lilli and her family! We are thinking she will be in the rotation now for my Charli girl. So many cute pics and I could tell she was loved. I was nervous since it was a first day. But Charlotte was tired when she came home so she must have been played and cuddled. We look forward to spending the week with Lilli and her pups!”


About: I survived teaching first and second grade for over 35 years so I can do anything! I am a new grandma and I’m so excited! I have two sweet pups who love having news friends come over and play. I am very flexible and I am very willing to get the work done with your pup or puppies! I will do whatever it takes to make it work. Although I don’t have a fenced in yard I will make sure they are on a leash if needed when going out to do their business. I love to walk multiple times a day so you can be assured they will get lots of attention and exercise.

“Alexander was amazing with our pup Blue. He was very communicative, nice, and welcoming to our boy. He sent photos and updates throughout the day. I felt really safe leaving our boy in his csre Blue had a really great time, and came home tired from all the fun he had. We will definitely use his services again!”


“Marvel had a terrific day with Kristina and her pup, Murphy. She provided pictures and videos throughout the day which helped calm my nerves as this was a new family. We will be scheduling more visits !”

About: You go away? Pet needs to stay? I’m here to play! I have always loved dogs and cats and lived with one or both almost every day of my life. Once I see an animal I love and care for them as if they were my own. When you leave your animal with me, they will miss you, but they will still feel very loved while you’re gone. I have experience with administering medication and I am comfortable cleaning up typical or atypical messes or accidents. Petsitting is my passion. I love dogs and cats so much but there’s only so many I can keep in my home, so when you hire me, I guarantee your pet will feel loved when you are gone. Work-wise, pet sitting is my #1 priority. If I sit in your home, I will “live” there, as much as is comfortable to you. I have 2 friendly cats, a private, quiet and spacious backyard to run and play with a 6ft fence surrounding the house and garage, with a motion detected flood light. I live with my boyfriend who recently completed his rabies shots after trying to rescue a cat that he witnessed being hit by a car but could not leave it to suffer. We both grew up caring for animals of our own and fully believe that animals deserve every good thing we can give them. We have a baby gate that allows our cats to get to their food and litter boxes and will prevent the dogs from getting to the cat spaces. We have a kitchen, dining room, living room and a bedroom for dogs to spend time with me or have alone time in their crate (at least in their own space if they’d prefer). If I pet sit in your home, I will care for your animals and home as if they were my own. I will try to keep their lives as normal as possible, play with their favorite toys, talk and sing to them.

“Shea is awesome! Messaged me throughout the day with updates on Pepper (doggy day care at sitter's house). Our dogs got along really well and played hard! Definitely rebooking and recommend.”


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: Hi, I’m Izzy – a teacher on summer break and lifelong animal lover! I grew up with cats and dogs and now have two sweet, friendly pups of my own. I’ve worked at a dog grooming salon, cared for pets over school breaks, and love providing reliable care when pet parents need a helping hand. My flexible summer schedule means your dog gets extra attention, playtime, and personalized care — whether we’re enjoying a peaceful walk, a game of fetch, or a cozy couch cuddle. I also love incorporating mental enrichment activities to help your dog stay happy and stimulated. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer or a mellow homebody, I’ll adapt to their needs and give them all the love they deserve. I’m happy to provide references from other families I've worked with — just ask! I look forward to connecting soon. I work remotely as a teacher and have a ten-week summer break- so I am available during the week and on weekends! I am happy to come to your house for drop in visits or walks. I also do offer doggy daycare in my home for one dog a day. I have two dogs of my own who love to have visitors. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I’ve cared for dogs both in my home and in their own familiar space. I always follow your pet’s routine and preferences to make sure they feel secure. I have two friendly, crate-trained dogs who love making new friends, and my home is pet-safe and well set up for boarding or drop-ins. I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so you feel totally at ease!

“We came to town for the day and didn’t know what to do with our new puppy. Alyson was so helpful and made us feel very comfortable during our first Rover venture! She gave updates and sent pictures so we could just relax and enjoy the day (:”


“Lovely, engaging Rover representative who helped my out in a pinch. Our pup was amply tuckered out and seemed to come how cheerful.”


About: I have been a dog owner since before I could walk, and have always seen my dogs as members of my family. In addition to growing up with dogs, I have also raised several litters of AKC registered Golden Retrievers, so I truly know how to care for every aspect of a dog. I have the knowledge and experience to care for any breed - from large & high energy to small & anxious… I am confident caring for all. I am very educated in breed specific traits and understand that every breed comes with specific needs. I am also willing to accommodate most unique needs you may have; whether your dog needs to be fed away from any other dogs/people, needs daily medication or even if you need me to reinforce a strict training regimen while they are in my care. I am confident in my ability to meet any level of care required. So whether you’re looking for an easygoing home with kids to snuggle your family dog while they’re away from you, or a knowledgable caretaker who knows the importance of stability and regimens; we surely will be the perfect fit! I am a stay-at-home mom so I am able to be present 24/7 to ensure total and diligent care for any animal in my home. We have a large cozy house with plenty of space to run around and play! Theres a large backyard to run around in! Our dog has free range of the house, but we have the ability to keep dogs and children completely separate when needed (via baby gates) and are willing to enforce any home rules to ensure stability. I have 3 well behaved children who are adequately trained on appropriate ways to interact with animals. I also have an adorable mini goldendoodle named Arlo who just might be the most lazy & well mannered doodle out there! I was a school nurse before becoming a stay at home mom and my husband is a doctor, so we have a very medically trained and safe household!

“Cameron was excellent. She provided great care for my dog and her puppy Haggis is so sweet and playful. She was very responsive and her fenced in yard is perfect for dogs to play.”


About: I’ve owned up to 4 dogs at a time. Having that many dogs in my house together, I’ve learned how to meet their needs and keep them happy. I’d put two at a time on one leash which made walking them easier. I’ve always been the “go to” person when my family or friends needed a pet sitter. My passion has always been children and animals. I was a teacher’s aide for the past 27 years. Now that I’m retired I’d like to switch gears and spend time taking care of dogs. My home is dog friendly. I have a fenced in yard on a quiet cul-de-sac. I also have two sweet dogs of my own that are friendly and playful.

“Ciara was excellent with providing updates and pictures of my doggo, he was walked several times and played with her dog all day! I would highly recommend her and will definitely go back again. Her communication was very timely and responded almost immediately.”


“We dropped our GSDs Zoe and Piper off with Jim for the day and they came back happy and exhausted! They had an opportunity to make new friends and socialize with Jim’s Labs, get some outdoor play and exploration time and came back safe and sound. Thank you, Jim. Looking forward to our next booking!”

I would be happy to come to your home and walk and love your pet to make them comfortable while you need to be away.****I am able to sit for one dog at a time in my home*** I work very part time from home.
