“We had a wonderful experience with Alexis! She was a joy to communicate with, always accommodating and providing regular updates on Oakley. We were so touched by her kindness and the genuine care she showed Oakley, making sure he was completely comfortable. Alexis is an exceptional pet sitter, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again.”


“Dawnye was Very sweet and took care of my doggie very well. Gave updates and photos and and put me at ease to drop my dog with her. This was my first time using this type of service and I was able to find a sitter last minute within four days. Highly recommend her and this app!”

“So happy to have found Caroline. She is wonderful and understands dogs needs/structure. She took great care of Gulliver and he had a blast with Honey. He is looking forward to next stay.”


“My dog RJ seem to be happy when he was picked up today. Britney was very attentive, but I would’ve liked more pictures. It looks like RJ enjoyed his visit though.”

“Wonderful experience!! We will definitely use Daniella again! She kept us informed with pictures and messages about Luna which made us feel even more comfortable leaving our sweet girl!!”

“Rebecca was amazing ! My bby (Amelia) had a great stay. Rebecca made sure to send me updates and the communication was fantastic! Def recommend this sitter”

“Super grateful for Deanna!! Had to go out of town my first weekend living in Raleigh, and I knew my pup was in good hands with her! She had other cute little dogs for him to play with too! Loved getting pics and updates!”

“Calleigh is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! She took George on adventures and sent so many cute photos. She even had a car seat for him! We know he’s in great hands when he’s with her. Super grateful!!”

“Margaret had a blast during her stay with Vanessa! Vanessa kept me updated with great pictures and descriptions of their days together. Additionally, very flexible with pick up time changes, alleviating a good deal of travel stress. 10 out of 10, will book again :)”

“Genevieve was great with our pup! Our dog was a little shy at first but warmed right up to her. She sent us picture updates and even took her for a run. Will not hesitate to book her again in the future!”

“Arden took care of our pittie Biggie and she did an excellent job. Biggie can be high energy but Arden got him plenty of exercise in the yard, he came back exhausted in the best way. Biggie also takes some medication and Arden handled that with ease. She shared fun pictures and updates during Biggie’s stay. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Nicole was fantastic to work with and sent regular updates on how our dog was doing. She was very accommodating with an adjusted pick up time and we know our pup had a great time!”

About: I’m a huge dog lover - I had a dog growing up, and have had plenty of experience babysitting dogs overnight. Different breeds I’ve watched include pugs, schnauzers, cocker spaniels, shih tzus, golden retrievers, yorkies, pit mixes, etc. I do have a full time job, however it is fully remote, so I spend the whole day at my apartment. This gives me the flexibility to watch a pet while on the clock. Some days are busier than others, so a chill pet is preferred. I live in a 1-bedroom apartment. Dogs ARE allowed on the couch, and I can always put them in a crate if needed! They’re welcome to chill on the couch or sit in my lap while I’m working.
“I always have such anxiety leaving my pup when I go out of town, but Cael did such a great job looking after my crazy boy! He sent updates and pictures and I never had to worry about how Zeus was doing while I was away. 10/10 he is my go to now! Zeus came home exhausted from a great time!”

“Luis has been great with Winnie. She has had 3 accidents in our 2 trips with him and he was very patient and understanding with her and with us. Highly recommend! His Dog Elvis is also a team player and great with other dogs.”

Six Forks dog parents share their Rover experiences
Chantel was very easy going and flexible. She sent me daily photos and videos. My dog loved her dog, and she will miss her buddy. My dog is a high energy beagle puppy, who loves to follow her nose and could be a runner. She came back to me safe and sound so I am happy.

Rebecca ( & her Mom) always make Buddy feel so welcome! He always seems content and glad to see them when we hand him off! When we arrive he seems thrilled to see us with lots of kisses and excitement, but as we pull away he seems hesitant to go to the car and always looks back hoping to get another glimpse of them. Very reassuring on longer stays, last minute stays, or shorter weekend stays! Even as a little chiweenie he is not anxious when we drop him off or when we pick him up!

Christina was amazing !! You can tell she really loves your pets like her own. She sent me updates about olive throughout her stay and made sure she got plenty of walks, fetch, and cuddles. Would 100% book her again! Its amazing to have a reliable pet sitter who you know you can trust to care for your fur babies

Our two dogs had the time of their lives! Kyra and Daniel were absolutely amazing. From the moment we arrived, we knew our dogs were in great hands. While we were out of town, we received thoughtful updates showing how well they were doing—and we came home to two happy, smiling pups! We’ll definitely be using them again whenever we travel. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets as if they were their own, reach out to Kyra and Daniel—you won’t regret it!

Daniela was the best pet sitter for my 5 month old puppy! She was so responsive and sent me pictures everyday. She did everything necessary to put me at ease so I could enjoy my trip and not worry that Hallie was being taken care of. I came home to a very happy baby who wasn’t ready to leave Daniela! Will definitely book with her again for our next trip!

This was our first time using Mary to dog sit our golden and she exceeded expectations! She was happy to fill in when we had a last-minute conflict and was communicative/flexible regarding drop off and pick up. She treated our girl like her own and shared regular updates with photos. We will absolutely use Mary again!

Pennie stayed with Sloane for two weeks and had a great time! She went on many walks, met several new dog friends, enjoyed deck time, and decided she fit in enough to claim the best sofa window seat. We appreciated Sloane’s detailed approach to her care, giving twice daily meds on schedule, and in her daily updates with photos. Pennie has regular seizures, and while luckily she didn’t have one during her stay, we were thankful that Sloane has experience with this and were confident Pennie would be well taken care of if a seizure occurred. Before this stay, Sloane also helped us arrange a prior visit, so this long stay would be less stressful for Pennie. We are glad to have met Sloane and will certainly book with her again!
Sarah was easy to work with and was able to accommodate our shifting schedule for the weekend, which I really appreciated. My girl Stevie had a great time walking, playing and snuggling with Sarah and her pup. Sarah sent lovely pictures and was always responsive, so I knew Stevie was in responsible, reliable hands.

My two dogs--one 14 years, the other 9 months--enjoyed their stay with Amanda. She exudes passion for animals and cared for my dogs like she would her own. They were spoiled with lots of love, treats, and walks. Her dog was a great companion for my puppy. She's a great communicator and sent lots of videos. I will book with her again.
