“Lynette was terrific with our dogs. One of our dogs is blind and the other one had been turned down from a doggy daycare for not being friendly enough. She spent time with them and sent us pictures of both of them in her lap sleeping. We have already talked with her about watching them again in March. Great job!! and great service.”

About: Ex restaurant owner turned private chef and animal sitter (what is this life?!). Love meeting all the silly kitties and playful doggies on this app. I have two cats and a pitbull puppy. I specialize in giving insulin if needed, medication/pills, and telling your cat/dog how pretty they are. Very flexible, wide open schedule right now! My schedule was limited to cat visits but now I’m open to pups now that my puppy isn’t as demanding of my time I have two very nice dog friendly cats and a crazy puppy!! I also have an empty room that fully set up for cat boarding! Tons of windows and couches
About: Hello! I am a dog lover through and through, as I’ve spent much of my life caring for my own pups and dog sitting for friends and family. I also worked at a doggy daycare for a little over a year, where I was responsible for managing large groups of dogs. We regularly fed, trained, and administered a variety of meds to the dogs in our care. I had the opportunity to work with many different dogs as well, from senior dogs with special needs to young, energetic puppies of all sizes! I have always been extremely passionate about understanding dog behaviors so that I can provide the best care for every pup :) I have a lot of time throughout the week to care for your pups! I’m available Mon-Fri and I can be flexible regarding timing. Most weekends are open for me as well—just communicate what is needed and I will try my best to make myself available :) I always provide a safe, comfortable environment at your home while sticking to a structured routine of potties, feeding, and/or any medication needs. I’ll do my best to ensure your pet feels relaxed and confident while you’re away!
“We had a wonderful experience with Maiah and would absolutely recommend her. Our beagle can be a bit high-maintenance, but Maiah was so great with her. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in trustworthy, kind, and capable hands. Maiah was also an excellent communicator--we received regular updates, photos, and quick responses, which made it easy to relax while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Marilia communicated often sending updates and pictures, and was very open to our instructions and the pets’ daily routines. We felt good that Marilia would care for them well while we were able to focus on our flight process without having to worry if the pets were eating and going potty when they needed to. Thank you so much for looking after them!”

“Samantha did a wonderful job during an overnight say with my Sasha. She came to meet Sasha beforehand and get a quick tour of the house and rundown of Sasha's schedule. During her stay, she sent lots of pictures and updates. She also left my home cleaner than when I had left! I am extremely appreciative of Samantha's care that she put towards watching my fur baby.”

“Brianna was a very attentive dog sitter to our high energy pup! She was also very good about letting us know when Sloane acted up so that we could help her handle the situation! Such a great house guest! She even stripped the bed!”


About: I’ve been a devoted animal lover and pet owner for as long as I can remember. From dogs and cats to caring for pets with unique personalities and needs, animals have always been a huge part of my life. Currently, I share my home with a lovable, mischievous hound mix who keeps me on my toes and a cat who completely stole my heart. A few years ago, I lost my soul dog, Jersey, and that experience deepened my understanding of the special bond we share with our pets. I know firsthand how difficult it can be to leave them behind and trust someone else with their care. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, affection, attention, and plenty of love. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in visit, playtime, cuddles, a walk, or simply a friendly face while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and communication throughout my visits. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that often allows me to accommodate drop-in visits and pet care needs throughout the day. I’m committed to providing dependable, compassionate care and building a trusting relationship with both you and your pets. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and becoming someone you can count on whenever you need a helping hand! 🐾❤️ I work from home and have a decently flexible schedule. I have a young son and pets of my own but thankfully I share these responsibilities with my rockstar husband so I will be able to care for your fur babies. I understand that having a stranger in your home can be a little uncomfortable. I will 💯 respect your space and keep things clean in order for your while you are gone. Please let me know your preferences for my stay.
“Lacey is great! She sent us pictures and updates every day & she followed our directions very well. She is so sweet and easy going & our dog was very happy and well trained when we got home.”

Southpoint pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sonia and Alex did an absolutely excellent job caring for my dog. He is developmentally delayed, requires daily medication, and is incontinent, so his care takes extra attention and patience. Throughout the 6 days he was with them, they communicated promptly and openly about any challenges that came up, and together we were able to make simple adjustments to ensure his stay was comfortable and successful. They sent pictures frequently, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. From every photo, it was clear that my dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable in their care. I am incredibly grateful for the compassion, flexibility, and attentiveness Sonia and Alex showed, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone—especially those with pets who have special needs.

Caitlyn was once again outstanding. She provided excellent care for our five dogs and accommodated our newest addition on short notice. She handled Mayhem’s medications perfectly (which is an absolute necessity as she has Addison’s Disease) and shared lots of regular photo updates, which we greatly appreciated during our 10-day absence. Our dogs clearly adore her and are always excited to see her. This is our fourth time using Caitlyn, and we hope she’ll continue to sit for us! I really can’t say enough good things!

Alissa was amazing! I can’t say enough good things about her. Her communication was phenomenal and she went above and beyond to take great care of our dog while we were away on vacation. The house was perfect when we got back and she sent numerous updates and pictures while we were away. We would gladly welcome her back!

This was our first time using Alex to watch our pets and it won’t be the last! He did a great job with our two dogs and three cats and taking care of our home. He kept us updated regularly and sent us photos. He was very respectful of our home! I would definitely recommend Alex and will be using him in the future!

IGNORE THE BAD REVIEW - that guy’s a doo-doo face… Sawyer clearly loves dogs and communicates just fine! I tend to over communicate and he had no problem responding to all my messages. I love getting all the pic updates, too! He’s experienced and my handsome staffy boy took to him immediately! My dog can be a handful on a leash and around other dogs but he must have handled him just fine because no bad reports! 💯 recommend Sawyer! 👍

I couldn't be happier with my experience! Margaret was amazing with Theo — attentive, communicative, and clearly a true dog lover. I received regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When I came home Theo didn't even want Maragret to leave! I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust, and I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!
