“Sabrina was fantastic. She was thankfully available for a last minute house sitting with Franklin. He's a rescue so it can be tricky getting him used to folks. She had no problem getting him out for walks and hanging out with him. Truly appreciative!”
“Megan was great. My pets were happy & well cared for. She kept in touch with us & sent pictures . This made me feel calmer leaving them with her. I would have Megan watch them again.”
“Jessica did a fantastic job staying with my dogs while we were out of town. She was very thoughtful and regularly sent updates and pictures. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Matthew showed up on time and followed instructions for our dog. He updated me throughout the day and night. He did great watching her and we will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Shanisa was wonderful. She kept me updated everyday. She left my home cleaner than she found it. All my neighbors said she was nice too. Highly recommend and would/will use services again.”
“This is the second time Chris watched our dog and cat. 100 stars! She is so kind and compassionate and sends me multiple pictures and messages while we are gone. Highly recommend!”
“Gavin dropped in on my pup who is post-surgery and needs to be kept quiet. She loved Gavin! He sent several photos and descriptive updates, which I always appreciate from sitters, and especially appreciated for this visit. We also have shy cats who came around to him. Will definitely book again!”
“Shannon is the absolute GREATEST! She’s professional, communicative and took amazing care of our animals. She’s not our first Rover but I'm hoping she’ll be our last! I am so relieved we found her and will always be our go to for when we need our pets looked after. 11/10. Thank you Shannon!”
“Brad did a fantastic job caring for our senior Greyhound in our home during an international trip. He was communicative, responsive, and asked questions when needed to ensure he was providing the best care for our girl. I’m very grateful that Brad’s professionalism allowed us to have a worry-free vacation! And a bonus- the house looks even better than when we left it.”
“Leslie was so wonderful- I haven’t left my 3 little guys without family in over 10 years. They are very nervous little guys and have some quirks - she made it all work and made them feel safe. Sent me pictures and updates 2-3 times a day. I could not be more grateful!”
“Jackie was wonderful! She accommodated our request last minute—and sent great pictures of our puppy! If I were to travel to Wilmington again, I would feel very comfortable asking Jackie to help us again!”
“Shari was better than great! First of all, she came to meet and greet the dogs two times to make sure they were comfortable before our trip. She did everything we asked while watching our two dogs. She has knowledge and experience with leash reactive dogs, which one of ours is. She was attentive and snuggly, which is what our dogs need. Sherry sent updates and pictures throughout each day we were gone. I would recommend her for your dog sitting needs any time!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life that I have taken care of and am comfortable caring for dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently help care for a dog that me and my family sit for during the day while his owners at work. I provide supervision, walks and playtime. I also have helped foster puppies through a rescue program where they will stay overnight and I will watch them. With this, experience I am able to adapt well to all different kinds of dogs needs. I enjoy spending time with dogs and strive to create a positive experience for both dogs and their owners. I'm currently working part time for a summer camp from 9-3 on the weekdays. I would be available anytime after 3 to dog sit or walk. For overnights I would be able to do weekends. I could do weekdays I would just have to go to work at 9. I do have a break from 12-1 where I could go check on your dog, feed them, and give them a walk. I would follow each dogs routine and respect every owners home to help make their dog feel comfortable. I will also keep a daily and clear communication throughout my stay.
About: I have given care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I am comfortable with all personality types, and sizes. I also have experience with cats, as an owner and sitter. I currently am dedicated to pet care and services. I currently work part time on a seasonal basis and can dedicate as much time as needed to caring and playing with your pets! I put animals above most else. I have my own dog who is hooked up and supervised when outside. I also have a pet first aid book and carry supplies on me.
“This was my first time leaving my dogs with someone outside of my family for a trip. I and my pups (especially Papas) were nervous. However, Rachel was super understanding and patient! She consistently communicated throughout the entire process. Eventually my pups were feeling more comfortable which was super helpful as I had multiple flights canceled due to a snow storm. Thankfully, Rachel was gracious enough to extend her stay! I felt such an ease of mind knowing that my animals were safe and sound with her especially during a snow storm. Would definitely recommend and utilize again!”
“Sarah was wonderful! My dogs clearly loved her and they got lots of snuggles and walks while we were gone. She was also really good about communicating her schedule and sent me daily updates and pictures of the pups. We are looking forward to having her back.”
“Dylan did a great job with our dog. It was a last minute booking, and Dylan really saved the day. He was accommodating, great with communication, and did a great job introducing himself to our pup (our dog is actually 12 years old and has a lot of separation anxiety). Dylan also sent us a number of photos while he was watching our dod to let us know he was doing great. We highly recommend Dylan.”

Joining in on all the great reviews for Heather. She stayed with our two pups for two weeks while we were on vacation. Her care for our dogs allowed us to relax and not worry about home. It's a bonus to have someone who will do overnights and be a house sitter as well. Thank you Heather, so much!
Dylan was amazing!! He was 100% ok with giving our cat her topical medicine twice a day along with managing our super energetic, sometimes stubborn dog. We forgot to leave a few things out and he communicated right away and managed getting everything needed. He sent update pics that made us feel good while we were away. We'll definitely be rebooking with Dylan again! Highly recommend :)
Cole was spectacular with our older basset hounds. He was able to get both of them on walks (not easy with one being a little grumpy with new people). Both dogs while happy to see us, didn’t seem like they had been stressed while we were away- a big improvement for us! Cole also kept our home on great order, dealt with a clogged sink, and even watered my plants (without me asking!). We can’t wait to use him again for future times away- the boys seemed to enjoy his presence.
Lesley was wonderful! Very communicative and detail oriented, making sure she kept a good routine for our dog Lucy. She also did so many helpful household tasks like bringing in our mail and packages (some large) and refilling our dog food container for us before we got home. Would absolutely book again!
Alberta took great care of Tilly! We were new to town and needed care for the dog while away overnight. It worked perfectly for Alberta to stay in our home especially given Tilly was a bit stressed due to the new environment and routine. Alberta took great care to understand how Tilly was taken care of and what her needs were. I greatly appreciated her easy nature with Tilly and her flexibility with me. Having her there with Tilly made it much easier to be away. I will definitely be booking with her again.
Stephanie was did a wonderful job taking Clara on her long walks and sent lots of pictures. The house was in perfect shape when we returned and we had peace of mind that our dog was well cared for on our first trip away from her. We will definitely book her again.
Gavin dropped in on my pup who is post-surgery and needs to be kept quiet. She loved Gavin! He sent several photos and descriptive updates, which I always appreciate from sitters, and especially appreciated for this visit. We also have shy cats who came around to him. Will definitely book again!
Bobbi was 1000% amazing! She was very communicative and put us at ease while we were away knowing our pups were so well cared for all the time. Bobbi sent several photos and took great care of our home. Bobbi left a daily record of events. Our pups were clearly cared for and we will definitely trust Bobbi again! I would give her 10 stars if I could!!
Danielle housesat with our seizure dog over a long weekend. She sent us daily updates, photos and videos while she was with her. Dani made sure that Pandora got her medications on time throughout the day and gave her lots of attention, playtime and snuggles. She took care of my outdoor plants and the house as if they were her own. We came home to a clean house and a very happy dog. Danielle was the perfect sitter in every way and we were so fortunate to have found her. You can tell that she has a deep love of animals. I highly recommend her.
