“Brooke was wonderful with my two dogs! One of my dogs is very shy and Brooke was able to get her to finally warm up to her and come out from under the bed! She kept me up to date with their care including photos from each visit. I’m so glad I could enjoy my vacation knowing they were in excellent hands!”


About: I've been caring for pets since I was young (including dogs, cats, horses, hamsters and guinea pigs) and I currently have 3 cats. 2 of my cats are declawed and get along with the dogs, 1 cat has claws. I'm use to caring for the unique needs of senior pets, including extra bathroom breaks and administering meds. I have three kids, 2 in college and a 17yo, that love pets as well and assist when they can. I live on 12 acres well away from the road but the yard is not fenced. I opened a business in town 9/2021 so I'm no longer home during the day but my husband works from home and when the kids are home from college they assist. I would love the opportunity to get to know your pet(s)! My husband works from home so he can care for them and keep them company during the day. I own a business in town and am usually home by 4pm. I have three kids that love dogs and assist when schedules permit. My cats also get along well with dogs. Dogs are not allowed on furniture but we do play with them if they are the playing kind or let them sleep if that is their preference.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have had my own dog, Finley, since college! I have all the patience and empathy for dogs who are dog and stranger aggressive, my Finley is one of those dogs. Experience with administering medication and dietary needs. Currently an online master’s student and working as a Nanny in the afternoon/evenings and random full days, looking to fill in some gaps! Unable to commit to long term visits. I have worked in behavioral therapy for 2 years, I understand the power of reinforcement and positive environments! I will go slow and let your dog lead the way, gaining their trust is my priority and I will use all the love and attention needed to get us there!

“We love Jo and felt secure in going out of town without our fur babies for the weekend knowing he was there to be sure all was well and give lots of cuddles!! Our pets definitely love Jo !! And so do we!!! He sends pics and keeps us updated. And always goes the extra mile to be safe. This attention to detail shows his intelligence and commitment to his clients. Jo will always be our first Rover request!!”


About: Hi, I'm Meredith! I am an experienced, caring, and trustworthy petsitter. But don't take my word for it! Here's what others have said: "Meredith truly cared about my pets, and I felt completely at ease being away. As someone who’s very picky about who takes care of my dogs, I can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter." "Meredith brought peace of mind, warmth, and reliability to our home. I’d trust her with our pets anytime." "Her calm energy and loving nature were exactly what our anxious rescue needed." "Meredith was fantastic. She cared for our home and animals as if they were her own." I’d love the opportunity to care for YOUR pets and your home! Animals have always been a central part of my life. I grew up in a house full of beloved cats and dogs, and I’ve raised several pets of my own as an adult, so caring for animals is truly second nature. I started pet sitting professionally in my 20s and recently returned to it with renewed passion and dedication. I now have over 7 years of direct pet-sitting experience and a lifetime of hands-on care with animals of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. As a responsible, organized, and nurturing high school English teacher with 20 years in the classroom, I bring calm attentiveness and excellent communication to every sit. I’m also a devoted mom to two kind-hearted, respectful animal lovers (ages 8 and 11), who may occasionally accompany me depending on the arrangement. If they do, rest assured they are gentle, supervised, and bring extra love to the experience. Whether it's administering medication to a senior pet, giving special attention to a rescue, or sticking to your pet’s unique routines and needs, I approach every sit with genuine care and commitment. I’m also experienced in basic training, gentle leash walking, and giving animals the calm, consistent presence they need to feel safe. If you have houseplants, I’ve got you covered there, too. I worked in my family’s garden center for years and enjoy keeping plants healthy and thriving. While I’m newer to this platform, I take each sit seriously and treat every home and pet with the utmost respect. I do not smoke, drink, or use drugs of any kind, and I always bring my own groceries and supplies. Communication is clear before, during, and after the stay, and you'll receive regular updates to give you peace of mind. I’m in a meaningful season of transition and using this time to do something I genuinely enjoy: caring for animals while exploring new places. This work blends my love of travel and nurturing in a way that reflects my values. If you feel we might be a good fit, I’d love to connect virtually or in person, when possible. Looking forward to meeting you and your beloved companions! Pet care is a natural, joyful part of my everyday rhythm. As a longtime teacher and mom, I’m used to creating routines that are structured yet flexible, making it easy to adapt to the unique needs of each pet and home. Whether it’s morning walks, medication schedules, mealtime routines, or play and snuggle time, I build my days around ensuring animals feel safe, loved, and cared for. Because I’m in a season of life where I have more flexibility, I’m able to be fully present with the pets I care for and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, consistency, and calm companionship throughout the day. It’s more than just a task in my routine; it’s a grounding and fulfilling part of my life that I genuinely enjoy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the routines and environment your pet already knows and loves. I follow all instructions closely, whether that means administering medications, preparing special meals, sticking to walk schedules, or providing quiet companionship. I aim to create a calm, consistent atmosphere that feels safe and nurturing, so your pet can relax while you're away. Also, I treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own. I’m clean, organized, and attentive to details, and I always communicate clearly throughout the sit to keep you informed and at ease. If my well-behaved, animal-loving children (ages 8 and 11) accompany me, it’s only with prior agreement, and they are gentle, respectful, and supervised at all times. Above all, I care for each animal as if they were my own, with patience, love, and a genuine commitment to their well-being.

About: I have approximately 3 years of pet experience. I worked in an animal boarding facility named Sunny Acres, working with various dog breeds, from tiny jack Russell, to the strong mastiffs and Cane Corso’s. I love them all!! Monday - Thursday is off limits. Friday, Im available during the day (from 2pm - 8pm). Saturday and Sunday are my days that I am completely open. Just give me a week in advance!! (I am also flexible for holidays). Depending on the age, and breed I am very enthusiastic about activities with pets. From hiking, to dog parks, to simply sitting at home and playing.

“Kayla did a wonderful job taking care of my kitties always providing a very detailed Rover card with lots of pics and details of what was taking care of during her visit. I will definitely be using her again and would highly recommend her for any other pet parents.”


About: I have had dogs and cats of my own for 20 years. I have also fostered many dogs for animal shelters. I have experience with all sorts of situations from puppy training all the way to senior pet care. I also have horses that I care for. I work from home and am around all the time except when running errands. I usually have a dog on my lap while working for at least part of every day! I have a schedule I try to keep as far as feeding but potty breaks are throughout the day as needed. I have a huge fenced yard (about an acre) for lots of running and playing room. I crate my dogs when I leave the house and can crate for separation, if needed. I separate at mealtimes to avoid fights over food. I also have multiple gates between rooms for separation and containment.

About: We have 4 dogs, a longhair chihuahua who we rescued when he was young, a chowchow mix whom we rescued from the woods as a puppy, and 2 great white pyranese who are primarily outside as guardian dogs. We absolutely love pets! They are our babies and will treat yours the same way! Growing up, we have always had dogs in the household and I wouldn't see it any other way . I have dog sat for multiple families. They are always supervised when together and separated when we run an errand. I've never run into any issues - most of them love all of the socialization! It's so much fun!! I am a stay-at-home mom and will be home full-time taking care of your babies as well as mine! We have lots of love and snuggles to go around! I look forward to hearing from you soon! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me! Thanks so much for checking out my profile! We live on 15 acres and have chickens, guinea fowl, and pigs. We keep them separated from all of the dogs that come visit. Our backyard is now fenced so there's a fenced area for our guests to run around! We also have a lot of dog toys here, so please try to resist bringing toys for your fur babies, I will worry they will get lost! ** My hours are approximately 6am-9pm. If you need to pick up or drop off later/earlier than that, we can discuss.** *if you refer someone to me and it ends in a completed stay, you will receive 1 free night stay for one of your dogs* I'm home full time so we will mostly be here with your fur baby. If we do leave for a playground or errand it's for a short time. I have two dogs of my own for socialization and a crate or separate room if needed if there's a dog that needs a break.

About: I have taken care of my own pets since I was a little girl. We have had all kinds of animals from small breed yorkies, medium breed Boston terriers, all the way to large breed bloodhounds. We also have one loving cat I’ve taken care of from the day we got her almost 15 years ago! I have sat for my family and friends with their animals while on vacations or long work days while I was in high school. I have experience in raising a puppy all the way down to helping senior pets into there final days. I have been told that I’m an animal whisperer that even the uncommon animals that only have their few favorite people warm up to me instantly! I have free time after work and on the weekends that I would love to spend with someone’s furry babies to help them have an easier time while on vacations or anytime they’re away from the home for longer than comfortable leaving there babies alone. When caring for other families animals I like to have a run down of their typical day and a list to make sure their routine is interrupted as minimum as possible. In my home, we do breakfast and potty breaks first thing in the morning. We play a little before work then get treats and tucked in for the day. Once I get home we do potty break and play time until dinner time. I know how important a routine can be for an animals comfort and the parents.

Top notch love and care provided.”

Morgan V.
“From the time Morgan was very little, she has been constantly surrounded by furry friends! Before she went off to college, she lived with 4 dogs, 3 cats, 3 rabbits, a tortoise and a sugar glider so she is well versed in the pet world! She is attentive to animals needs and has a soft spot for all those with 4 legs. I have not hesitated to leave our pets with her, always knowing they were in good hands! She is one of the most mature and responsible young adults that I know. I also know that her recent move away to school has her missing her pets back at home and would spend extra time loving on your pets when she is with them.”

Roxboro pet parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn’t be happier with the care Ashley provided for our dogs, Chingu and Chelsea. She stopped by daily and made sure they were fed, walked, and given plenty of love and attention. Both dogs absolutely adored her! Ashley sent us regular updates with photos, which gave us real peace of mind. She was punctual, professional, and clearly passionate about animals. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but Ashley exceeded all our expectations. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable in-home dog care!

Ashley went over and above our expectations. It was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving our pets in the care of a sitter. We were so grateful and relieved to have Ashley take such good care of everyone and everything. Thank you, Ashley! We’ll be using your services again!!
