“Love love love Emily !! She is a professional!! Loves and plays with my kiddies and genuinely cares! Timely, clean, generous. Highly recommend”


About: I’ve been taking care of a few dogs in my neighborhood for 2 years now, and I absolutely love it! Growing up I’ve had 3 dogs and now I own one cat. When I pet sit I love being able to play with the pets and care there for them while their owners are away. I go to NC State for college, and I am currently home for summer break! I am not employed anywhere else right now, so I am free most days of the week to pet sit! I go back to school August 15th, so all dog services will be stopped then. When house sitting I always make sure to listen to the rules the owner has set in place regarding their pet. I will also contact the owner immediately if anything were to happen to their pet, or even to get some clarification on something I’m not sure about.

“John was so great with our last minute trip and prep. He follow complicated instructions for raw feeding using 2 different kinds of automated feeders. He was accommodating and we very much appreciate the care our 2 fur babies received while we were gone!”


“Wonderful experience as this was our first time using the service and Francesca. The cats took to her immediately and we loved getting photo updates while we were on our trip.”


“Lillie was great! She took excellent care of my dog and did a great job of keeping me informed and providing photos. She even went above and beyond by bringing a delivered package in from the porch. Also, she accepted this dog sitting very last minute when my original sitter had to cancel. I would not hesitate to utilize Lillie’s services again in the future and recommend her to my friends and family! Thanks again, Lillie!”


About: I’m a dedicated pet lover with two dogs of my own, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to help! I’ve grown up with dogs and have years of experience caring for them, from playful puppies to senior companions. While I haven’t had cats in my own home, I’ve looked after many cats and kittens and understand how to care for their unique needs too. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog or cat I care for like part of the family. I’d love to meet your furry friend and make sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Feel free to message me with any questions — I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I am a recent college graduate and have open availability. I will be starting a job in the near future but have no commitments as of now! When caring for pets during dog walks or drop-in visits, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and making sure your pet feels happy and loved while you’re away. For dog walks, I always make sure your pup is secure with a properly fitted harness or leash, and I tailor the walk to their energy level, age, and needs. Whether it’s a slow stroll for a senior dog or a more active walk for a younger pup, I’ll make sure they get fresh air, exercise, and plenty of encouragement along the way. I’ll also clean up after them and give them water if needed after the walk. For drop-in visits, I follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent. This includes feeding, refreshing water, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care like administering medication or cleaning up accidents. I always take time to give your pet attention and affection so they feel calm and cared for, even when you’re not home. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in great hands!

“This was our first time using rover and we would like to thank Jessica K for being so good to the dogs. We were very nervous at first due to hearing bad reviews about rover but Jessica made sure were comfortable and the dogs immediately like her when she came for meet and greet. Throughout our trip Jessica sent photos of the boys to us and that made us relax on our vacation. We will definitely book Jessica again. Thank you again for taking care of the dogs and making sure we didn’t have to worry about them on our trip. We appreciate you.”


“Nicole was a great dog sitter. We didn’t have to worry about our babies. She made sure they were safe and sent pictures of our babies at every walk. We appreciate her and we definitely appreciate not having to worry about our babies on our anniversary trip. We will definitely book Nicole in the future again thank you Nicole.”

About: I've taken care of pets for as long as I can remember, ranging from my own to family to friends. Your babies will be in great hands as I will love and cuddle them as much as you do when you are there . If they prefer I keep my distance that's fine too as I'll just keep them fed and content as they can be with you gone. I work remote so I have very flexible hours and times that I am able to come and let your baby out for a potty break or stay with them while you are out of town. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs so please do not be worried about the age of your babies. I also have experience with different activity ranges from basset hounds to gsps. Pit bulls to Chihuahuas. I am comfortable with each and every one of them I am working remotely so I have time and flexibility for you and your pets needs. Please just let me know and I can work it in perfectly Unfortunately I cannot allow pets into my home as I have a basset hound that is not a huge fan of other dogs except for the other family dogs he grew up with. That being said I can take care of and care for your fur babies in your home how ever you see fit. If you want me to walk them, fenced in yard to let them run around or even just show up and give them cuddles . Whatever makes you and your fur baby comfortable

About: I have worked in animal shelters. I have rescued stray and abused animals and helped located their owners and if I couldn't I kept them until they were ready to find a home. I am currently taking college courses to become an animal cop I want to continue to save the abused and neglected animals. I treat my pets like family. I have helped animals including babysitting in my home and at the residents for 18 years. I have worked at the animal shelter and volunteered there. My passion for animals has never changed. My kids also love animals. They have sat and watched animal cops with me and they say to me mommy we need to help them they need a family. It's sweet seeing my kids feeling the same passion as I do. I am a stay at home mom I do babysit kids during the week. I make sure all dogs get exercise while in my home.

About: I have been caring for other people’s pets and my own since I was a child. I own my home in a quiet neighborhood and have a fenced in back yard. I have tons of room to accommodate your pets needs. I work full time M-F in Downtown Raleigh with a little bit of flexibility . I can usually do drop in visits and walks in the evenings that I work even if my calendar shows that I am unavailable I will try to work with you. I can board or house sit (or any other service) weekends. My 7 year old fur baby’s name is Bailey and she loves other pets. If your pet is staying at my home and you, for any reason, would like for your pet to be separated from Bailey that is completely fine I have the space to do that. I look forward to meeting you and your fur family!!! I work full time so I am more available to give your pet the attention they deserve for boarding or house sitting during the weekends. I can do pop in visits or walks in the evening during the week. I have a fenced in yard and my friendly Beagle that would love to help keep your pet company. If you would prefer a crate I have one for your pet to use. If your pet is chewy, I would prefer to use the crate.

“My yorkie/terrier mix friend, Millie, and I highly recommend Marisa.. She is professional, personable, and caring. It is obvious that she enjoys pets and takes her responsibility to care for them seriously.”
