“I love Elle as a sitter! She is always so thorough and really does love the fur babies. She takes such good care of my boy when she comes over. 10/10 recommend”
2. Stephen H.
“Steve was absolutely fantastic and professional. My wife and I were new to dog sitting and usually use a boarding service when we go away. Well we ran out of time due to Thanksgiving around the corner so we reached out on Rover to find an amazing person who absolutely set our mind at ease from the moment we shook hands. Thanks Steve…. And of coarse Brady thanks you as well!!!”
3. Emily W.
“Emily took great care of our two cats while we were away. She is clearly an animal lover, even our cats could tell and warmed up to her right away. She was punctual and did a great job caring for the boys. I love her updates about the visit and seeing some pictures to let me know how they were doing. Can’t wait to book with her again for upcoming trips!”

About: I have a very strong connection with dogs since i was very little and now that I’ve moved to college I would love some company! I’m currently working part time but I can work around any schedule that you have and I am on call if you have an emergency! I currently live in an apartment but I am always available to come over and walk the dog or take them to a dog park! I am currently in school Monday-Friday 9-5:30pm and would love to come watch any animals you may have at night or overnights for those who need a helping hand or a vacation away!! I do overnight stays in home because there is nothing better then the comfort of your own home with your pups! Message me for more details on this!!

About: Trust and relax while you’re away from your pup knowing he/she is being cared for by an experienced Dog Dad! I have a spacious fenced in back yard and open concept living space to make your dog feel right at home. Crates for overnight upon request or reasonable caution only. No kids or pets other than house trained dogs. Special arrangements can be made for dogs who need special care, please do not be afraid to voice cautionary measure needed to make your dog enjoy their stay here. Please provide enough dog food for your dogs to eat at least 1x per day. Try and bring their favorite food so they will eat it in the allotted time for breakfast and dinner as grazing is prohibited as a cautionary measure taken to deter food aggression. Dog treats and water will be provided as complimentary. Very organized and communicative. I have dogs of my own and they are all trained but very socialized. I wake up around 6am and primarily work from home allowing me to provide frequent care and supervision to our doggie guests. Mac, my youngest goes to the dog park 4-5 times per week. His favorite thing to do is play with other dogs. I have a huge backyard fenced in all grass with a 6 foot vinyl fence. Bh default, booked Pups do not leave the home during their stay unless I have an exclusive conversation with pet parents. If you want your pup to go to the dog park with Mac, you have to ask, otherwise for safety they will be bound to the living quarters of my home. I would prefer to offer services at my home rather than provide visits however I will offer that service around my boarding service. While they are at my home, all somewhat house trained dogs will have access to 2 guest bedrooms with queen sized beds and pillows or dog beds on the floors. Certain dogs will be crated overnight per parent request, otherwise will roam free. All dogs eat separately at pre determined 1/2 hour time blocks to deter any food aggression. All dogs will get at least 2 -3 treats/day and will always have access to water. If you have a dog who grazes, please provide their favorite foods so they eat when fed. If your dog has special needs please provide written instructions via text or letterhead at time of drop off.

About: Hi! I l would love to pet sit for you! Growing up, I have always had animals. Right now, I have three dogs and four cats who I love very much. I also have my own cat who I decided to get to keep me some company at college. She is one of the best decisions I have made. I am attending at ECU with a Business major in hope to work on my Real Estate license this Christmas. I will be graduating early around 2026. I have always said that If I wasn’t a business major, I would be a vet because of the huge amount of love I have for all animals. My schedule changes a lot being I attend at ECU. However, I am open all the way for Christmas and Thanksgiving. Definitely more open when I have Holidays. If not, we can work together to look at my schedule. Summer I am open too!!! My pets have always been well taken care of and are definitely spoiled. I love to take them riding in the jeep and walks on the beach is their all time favorite!

“Recently my husband and I planned a trip to the mountains for the weekend and were in need for someone to care for our German Shepherd at home. We also have many cats that live at the house that would need to be fed at the same time. We contacted Charles T and he met us promptly, and we discussed how we feed our animals, where we kept the food and medication and how we interacted with each of them. During our trip, we both text each other and he would give us updates on our animals, which was imported to us in order to have an enjoyable trip knowing our animals at home we’re happy and content with us away from them. Charles T would spend time walking our dog around the property, chilling with the cats on the porch and talking to them as we always do. We believe the small details and care made a difference with our animals and an enjoyable trip not having to worry about our fur babies back home. We would highly recommend Charles T. for your pet needs. He listens and understands what you expect from him, and you will not be disappointed in his service.”
14. Sabrina L.
“Sabrina is a rare soul that cares for animals as if they were her own. I have a special needs lab and trust her to care for her when I can’t be there. I’m so appreciative of her professionalism, communication and the care she provides my sweet girl. 6 stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

17. Kevonna G.
“Kevonna is a real treat. She is the only dog sitter who was willing to drive a little farther just to help me out! She’s wonderful and my dog really loves her!”
18. Danielle M.
“Danielle is an amazing and loving dog sitter. My two rescue dogs are extremely quirky and I do not trust many sitters with them but Danielle has done a wonderful job with caring for each of their individual needs. If you are looking for a sitter who will care for your pups as if they were her own, Danielle is your girl!”
19. Robert M.
“I needed a dog sitter for a couple of hours and reached out to Rob. He responded quickly and was very courteous. I felt comfortable leaving my sweet girl in his care. She also appeared to be comfortable with Rob. I initially selected Rob because his profile stated that he was a dog trainer. I hope to have some training sessions in the near future. I'm so happy that I found a caring sitter that is very knowledgeable about dogs! Rob will be my go-to sitter from now on.”
