“Elizabeth is amazing! She has taken care of my cat at my apartment twice over the last few weeks. We did a meet and greet at her request to go over details. She was extremely professional, and I am confident she took care of my baby like she was her own while I was away. She sent great updates and I came back to a happy, safe cat 2x. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!!”

“I can't say enough positive about how loving and diligent Ashley has been both times in watching my cat. She's prompt and always shows up as scheduled. She not only feeds my cat but takes time to ensure her well-being--cleans out the food dish, cleans and replaces the water and offers her treats. My shy cat has come to trust Ashley; she comes out from hiding and even lies beside Ashley when she takes a few minutes to pet her. I can't always be around to care for my cat. I completely trust and appreciate Ashley's approach to caring for my cat. I will always contact her first.”

“Lauren came through for me at the last minute and as a new client at that! She did a fantastic job walking my dogs and taking care of them and took the time to meet me and the dogs beforehand, again at the last minute. Very professional amd friendly. Highly recommended!!”

“I couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Katherine to watch my 3 pups for the holidays! Not only was she prompt each and every visit, my grand dog, who barks continually at people she doesn’t know, actually didn’t bark every time she came, and even began to feel comfortable enough to play with her toys. My super shy senior dog also seemed very happy from the pictures I got and I think my other dog was ready just to go home with her! I got detailed reports of pertinent happenings, ie fireworks going off on Christmas night which scared them, and really cute pictures of what they were doing. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Katherine again and feel very happy to have found someone I can trust fully with my fur babies. She was also very comfortable with my house alarm system and didn’t seem scared to operate it like so many other people I have had watch my dogs. She returned the key very promptly and was very professional. Anyone who can handle my crazy crew of 3 is an official dog whisperer in my opinion. Thank you again, Katherine.”


About: I'm a teacher with a flexible summer schedule and a big heart for animals. Whether it's walks, belly rubs, playtime, or keeping your pet company while you're away, I'm here to help and make sure they feel loved and cared for. I've been a dog owner for over six years and currently have two German Shepherds, ages 5 and 6, whom I've raised since they were puppies. I've spent countless hours researching dog behavior, training techniques, nutrition, and enrichment to help them grow into happy, well-adjusted companions. And trust me, it has been a challenge! Caring for large, energetic breeds has given me experience with daily walks, playing fetch ALL DAY :) , basic obedience training, administering medications when needed, and understanding canine body language. I am no expert, but I know that every dog has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to build trust and provide patient, attentive care. I'll treat your pets with the same love, respect, and attention that I give my own every day. Summer break gives me the opportunity to spend my days doing something I enjoy, caring for animals! As a teacher, I have a flexible summer schedule and am available for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets throughout the week. Because I have two German Shepherds at home who prefer not to have unfamiliar animals or visitors in their space, I currently focus on drop-in visits and walks. This allows me to provide dedicated care for your pets while ensuring my own dogs remain comfortable and happy at home.
“Brittany was wonderful! I booked her last minute to help watch my cat while on a work trip. She was attentive to details, communicated effectively, and took care of Rory as if he was her own cat! I would happily book with Brittany again the future!”


About: I grew up with a Golden Retriever and Yellow Lab and now have my own Golden Retriever puppy named Banks! I’m very comfortable with large, energetic dogs. I’m very active & dependable and would love to walk your dog for you! I am done with work by 3pm so could help out anytime after that. I am available to walk your dog any day of the week I provide attentive care by feeding, walking, and playing with pets, ensuring their physical and emotional needs are met. I adjust walks on dog’s age/capabilities
“Allison did a wonderful job. Was flexible, spent time with Casey, and gave prompt updates. Even threw some water on a plant that she saw needed it! Highly recommend her”

“Falesha is THE BEST! I was new to trusting anyone other than family to care for our sweet rescue pup, Louie. Louie is a man who requires much patience and a gentle, caring spirit, and Falesha exceeds delivery every time. She is prompt, communicative, entirely trustworthy, and very gentle and patient with our skittish man. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone without hesitation. We consider ourselves blessed to have found her!”

“Madison was super attentive when she dropped in to care for my pets while I was at work. She was sent photos, played with them and was overall super responsive. Will definitely book again!!”

“Walter did an amazing job watching my dog this week. He was reliable, communicative, and made me feel comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands while I was away. He kept me updated, made sure she was well taken care of, and really went above and beyond. I could tell she was happy and comfortable with him. I’d definitely recommend Walter to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

About: I have taken care of my friends’ puppies and another friend’s cat. Responsibilities include feeding, walking, and providing companionship. I'm attentive, reliable, and love animals. At the moment, I’m doing Full-Time with Rover. So, I have plenty of time to take care of your furry babies. Up to you to decide your availability. Caring for pets involves providing them their proper foods, regular exercise, ensuring their safety, good health, and lots of love and attention to keep them happy and healthy.
About: Hello! My name is Hannah! I’m a full-time lawyer. I began housesitting and dog walking 10 years ago. I have been on Rover for about 7 years and have experience with all types of dogs! I work M-Th from 9-2/3. I love to go for daily long walks. I can provide walks early in the morning as well as in the afternoon. When I am in a clients home for housesitting or dog walking I follow the instructions that have been agreed upon in our initial meet up. During dog walks, I am careful to watch that the pups don’t eat anything off the ground that can be harmful and am aware of how they are feeling during the walk (if they get too tired, too hot, etc).
About: I have been watching animals since I was 16 and love helping out. Hoping to find some re-peat clients that need some help- Thank you I am currently looking to watch more cats and dogs and spend time outside. Flexible availability and I am very active. Thank you! - Elyssa I prefer to watch the pets at the clients home since I currently do not live in a house. Happy to meet up before deciding if it is a good fit.
About: I love dogs; I treat every pup like my own and ensure they feel safe and well cared for. I strive to earn their trust because they deserve amazing treatment. I'm patient, attentive, and always ready for a walk, playtime, or cuddle session. I've taken care of dogs for many family members and friends over the years, including goldendoodles, rottweilers, french bulldogs, and more. My family owned a German shepherd/husky mix when I was little, so I grew to love and care for pups at an early age. These experiences taught me how to provide beyond baskc care for fur babies. Though I don't have multiple years of professional experience, I'm dedicated to making sure your pup gets the best care possible. I am starting up my own businesses and therefore work from home, so my schedule is super flexible in terms of fitting in time to walk your fur baby, feed them, clean up, and play with them. I can easily adjust my weekend schedule to care for your pet for an overnight stay. I typically don't have big plans over the weekend - especially late night plans. I also don't travel often, but I will block out any future dates for those anomalies. Caring for your pet fits seamlessly into my routine. I love spending time with animals. I can accommodate different needs to ensure your pet is happy. That would be a priority in my day! At my client's home, my priority is providing your fur baby a companion that makes them feel loved, comfortable, and safe in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely including feeding schedule, walk routine, any special needs, etc. I am dedicated to giving your fur baby plenty of attention, play time, and cuddles to keep their pets happy and engaged. I would treat a client's home as my own. Keeping a house tidy and respecting the space is extremely important. I would also send updates at each visit and some pictures/videos so pet parents have peace of mind while they're away!
Six Forks pet parents share their Rover experiences
Trisha is always so great with my cats and I know they look forward to seeing her. Even my easily spooked cat is completely at ease with her. She took a last minute booking when my flight got delayed overnight; and it meant the world to me to know my cats were in good hands!

Madison was awesome! She was quick to respond initially and if I ever reached out during her visits while I was gone. She gave my pets the best care, sent pictures each day, and even made sure my dog got her exercise. Hands down will book with her again and recommend.

Katie is absolutely fabulous. She's been visiting my two pups daily for the past month or so due to a crazy busy period at work. She's unbelievably punctual and utterly reliable. I get pics with happy updates on the daily, and I have 100% confidence that she's taking phenomenal care of my precious pups. One of my pups is a ball playing fanatic -- he would play until he dropped -- and one of things I so appreciate about Katie is how mindful she is about when he's had enough as the days get warmer. There's no doubt she truly cares, and I could tell from our first meet and greet that she loves animals and has a very kind demeanor. I'm so glad I found Katie -- she's made a hard period at work a bit more bearable with one thing less to worry about. Thank you, Katie!!!

Stephanie was extremely accommodating last minute when I booked her and called me right away for instructions. She was very communicative and sent multiple pictures of my cat. I felt so comfortable with her taking care of Sully and would absolutely book her again!
