“Patricia watch our two dogs Dora and Spark for over a week. This was the first time we had Patricia as our house/dog sitter and we will definitely request her services again. Patricia sent us pictures and kept us updated about the dogs. She promptly answered any of my emails and contacted us if she had any questions. Patricia also watered plants, feed the fish, and picked up the mail. The house was in perfect condition when we returned. I highly recommend Patricia.”
“Georgia was the absolute best. She kept me updated and sent adorable pics of my fur babies. My shy, people hating babies warmed right up to her. She probably treated them better than I do? I will definitely use Georgia again.”
“Adoni was wonderful!! She gave me updates the whole time and sent me pictures of my babies. i knew they were in good hands! She will be my "go to" sitter for the future!!!”
“We are so happy to have found Fiona! She is calm and knowledgeable with DesiLu and a polite and conscientious house sitter. We will definitely book her again. This is the first time we've left our dog and were very anxious about it. Fiona kept in contact with us, reassured us, and gave us a detailed recount of the day's schedule and activities. I really appreciate Fiona's compassion and patience and highly recommend her.”
“Raina is an absolute Godsend! We have 2 dogs and 3 cats, with one dog being older and the other a 1 year old puppy - and we had pretty much resigned ourselves to never going on vacation again. Raina stayed at our house for the entire week, and our animals adored her. Even our shy skittish ghost of a cat Stella came right out and loved her. She played ball with the babydog, she snuggled the old dog, she loved on the cats. She sent us adorable pictures. She was incredible! Our animals have never been without us that long, so I expected them to be anxious and out of sorts when we got home - it was like we were never gone. She kept them so calm and comfortable that they were just happy to see me, and went right back to normal. The house was even better than we left it. Raina had everything in perfect order, everything was clean, it honestly looked better than we left it! Raina is a blessing, and I’m so glad Rover brought her into our lives!”
“This is the second time Sky watched our dogs. We have been totally satisfied and pleased with her service. We feel our dogs are getting great care and attention; Sky loves our dogs and they love her. Sky is good at sending pictures and updates and answers my emails promptly. Sky also attends to other requests such as watering plants. We highly recommend Sky.”
“Kendal was very reliable and took care of my baby on such short notice! Great service and very professional. This is my first time using a sitter, and so I was nervous and anxious but Kendal made the experience easy, and took care of my pup very well! Will definitely book again with her!”
“Did a great job watching my two pups. Kept good communication throughout the time and was flexible because I set up the booking at one house and ended up moving to another. Overall awesome job and would recommend again.”
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life, and grew up with dogs, cats, and snakes. My wife and I currently own 5 cats and foster for a local rescue. While fostering, I've gotten quite comfortable with administering pills and vaccines as needed. I also previously interned at a wildlife rescue where I helped rehabilitate all kinds of animals including birds, reptiles, and even donkeys. My main reason for joining Rover is that I've missed being around dogs. I have a full time job Monday-Friday, but I am available most Saturdays and Sundays all day. Im used to waking up early for my job, so I can walk your dog as the sun rises or even earlier. All of our cats are indoor cats as we rent a home without a fence, but I am very familiar with leashing dogs before going outside as I did that every day growing up.
“Peytyn always takes good care of our boy. She sends pictures and updates which always sets our minds at ease. We come back to a clean house and a happy dog! We will definitely use her services again!”
About: I've had animals most of my life from puppies to pound mutts and full blooded and senior dogs. I make sure to encourage play and positive training. I currently work from home so I spend lots of time with family pets, old roommate animals and friends pets. Lately it's been waking up to 3 small dogs my parents have. I make sure to follow any rules stated by the original owner. It can range from crate training, socialization, cleaning, walking or using the client's home.
“Kyra recently stayed at our home and took care of our Bernedoodle and cat. She was absolutely fabulous! She sent daily pictures and kept us well informed, played with Bella and loved on Luna. We will definitely use her again!”
“Christina did a great job taking care of our sweet Molly!! We enjoyed hearing update on her. I would Definitely give her five stars, and will definitely use her services again!! Thank you Christina!!! Julie”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was a child and I love being around them. It’s something about that serotonin that they bring to us that just makes me feel safe and better with dogs around me. I’m currently working full-time and this will definitely bring an extra income as well as more happiness to me to take care of your fur-baby and slowly get to know them. I live in a house without a fenced yard and I have a small Shih-Tzu of my own, but she is amazing and very calm, loves to play and gets along with small and big dogs as well. I also have a 4 year old German Shepard mix who loves to play, and I recently adopted a senior dog who is a sweet boy and doesn’t give a care in the world if there are other dogs around (pretty much unbothered). Your dog can also be crated if needed. I will meet all needs that your pet requires.
“Heather was wonderful! She really bonded with our baby! It was the first time we were leaving our pup, and Heather took great care and indulged us as overprotective parents! We will definitely book her again!”
“La-Rel took great care of my two doggo and even my wayward cat enjoyed his company while we were away. I felt like everyone was safe, happy, and in good hands. The house was left in perfect order. I would absolutely book him again.”
About: I have had pets ever since I was born. This includes 4 dogs, 15+ cats, 3 rabbits, and 2 turtles. I am always looking to spend time with any and all animals. I am currently on summer break from college, and volunteer part-time at the NC Zoo. I am available most of the time, however I prefer to schedule in the afternoon or evening. I can care for your pet however you see fit. Just give me whatever instructions you would like and I will see to that list while caring for your pet.

“Finding a reliable pet sitter who genuinely cares for your furry and scaly family members can be a challenge, but once Josh started watching them I knew they were getting the attention and care they needed. Not only did he diligently look after my beloved dogs Lily and Frida, but he also showed exceptional care for my bearded dragon, Tanzanite. Whether it was staying overnight to house sit or taking them for walks, I always felt at ease knowing they were in reliable hands. His attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and commitment to their well-being set him apart. I highly recommend Josh for anyone seeking peace of mind while away from their pets.”
