“I was hesitant to leave my beagle with someone else while I went on a trip, but as soon as I met Emily and saw her home and yard, I knew it would be OK. It was more than OK! I never worried about Nelly and she clearly had a good time there.”
“We are incredibly grateful for the care Ellen gave Dugger and Maya this week. We had a last minute change in our schedule and needed to extend their stay by a day. Then on pickup day, I was going to arrive very late. She kindly and lovingly kept them an extra night without hesitation. While they were with her, she prepared delicious dinners for them, sent us videos and photos, and cared for them with so much love and attention. It is very clear that she truly loves what she does. Dugger and Maya absolutely love going to her farm, and we always feel at peace knowing they are in such good hands. We could not ask for better care.”
“Terri was the epitome of perfect. She was just what my pet Blossom needed. Attention, affection, love, she filled all of those things, and then some. She took many pictures kept us up-to-date, and eased my anxiety!!! I would use her again and again and again, top-notch for sure!!!”
“Min & Matthew were great! My pup has some anxiety problems. They were very patient with her and were able to settle her down without using the medication I sent just in case she needed it. I loved all the pictures and videos. They gave our dog lots of love and snuggles. Will absolutely will be using them again in the future.”
“Megan took such great care of our dog! She kept us updated with photos throughout our stay and we could see how happy our pup was. Her kids were also so incredibly sweet and gentle with her! Definitely recommend and will absolutely be rebooking when we’re in need of a sitter in this area!”
“Janelle and Joel took excellent care of our two shepherds while we were away for a week. They were so naturally good with them from the first moment we introduced them. We were able to relax and sleep at night, knowing they were being loved and cared for! They sent regular updates and pictures, even a special one from each dog on Mother’s Day. ❤️”
“Payten was amazing. I will definitely be using her again. It was my baby's first time being with a sitter. He is very reserved and stubborn, but he really warmed up and trusted her. That right there shows me that she is a person to be trusted. She kept me updated regularly, even sending pictures. Thank you Payten!”
“Annette is truly an amazing dog host. She knows animal behavior so well. Her own pets are wonderful and our dog loved visiting as a guest. She is an expert with regard to introducing pets to one another. I wish he could go on a mini-vacation once a week!”
“John and Jess were absolutely wonderful with Jack. They sent frequent updates and adorable pictures, which really put my mind at ease. Jack seemed to have so much fun, and I could tell they were in great hands. I will definitely be using their services again!”
“Rosa stepped in at the last minute to care for our pup when another Rover sitter had to cancel! Very easy to communicate with. She's a former dog breeder so very experienced with dogs. She took great care of our Aussie.”
“Sarah was wonderful about sending pictures and updates every day! She took great care of our little one and our puppy seemed very happy there. Thank you so much, Sarah, for treating her like family and taking great care of her. Will definitely book again!”

“Rachel and Jason were wonderful with our new puppy. It was our first time leaving her overnight, and the videos and pictures were very reassuring. I know she was loved and well taken care of!”
“Jennifer is fantastic! She takes our puppy Gary almost every week while I'm at work. She's so flexible with drop off and pick up times, and is always willing to work with me. We're so lucky she's close by!”
“Nat & Ally were excellent with my girl. They were very accepting when I needed to change the dates several times. They sent lots of pictures so I could see my girl and how comfortable she was, particularly during a thunderstorm which she hates. I will definitely be booking with them in the future!”
“Charlie was an incredible dog sitter for my Boston Terrier, Huckleberry. From the start, he was kind, professional, and accommodating. I appreciated the regular photo updates of Huckleberry enjoying his time, especially at the park! Huckleberry loved hanging out with Charlie's two dogs, who were the perfect playmates. Even when I was late for pickup, Charlie was super understanding and flexible. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches, and I felt completely at ease knowing Huckleberry was in good hands. I highly recommend Charlie and will definitely book him again!”
“Our two dogs were well cared for and had lots of fun in Sandra's big play yard. We received daily updates and photos and Sandra was responsive at all times. Highly recommend!”

We felt very good being away while knowing that she was taking care of our little bundle of furry fun. I will definitely be using Leah again in the future! Thank you Leah!!!”
“She was wonderful with my kitties, especially the two who are a lot more shy and prone to hiding. She was consistent, responsive and really seems to enjoy spending time with my kitties.”
“Amber did a wonderful job with our pets. The cats especially seemed to warm up to her within a day when they normally take several days to warm up to someone. Her communication was great throughout and she left our house spotless. We would definitely have Amber stay with our pets again.”
“Deann was wonderful to check on our kitties for a weekend trip. We extended our stay away and she was accommodating and willing to cover down the extra time! We so greatly appreciated not having to rush home. She communicated frequently and even had interactions with our shyest cat that I assumed would hide the whole time. We look forward to having her in our home again to care for our brood.”
“Arnie was fabulous! My dogs love him and feel comfortable to let him in the house without us being there. He did a great job take care of the babies. Will book with him again when we need it!”

She took the time to play with them and gave them extra love and attention ❤️ we would highly recommend Sarah to anyone in need of a trustworthy sitter!”
About: Cats have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has given me years of hands-on experience understanding their unique personalities, routines, and needs. In addition to lifelong experience with family pets, I have also been the dedicated caregiver to my own pets for the past four years. The services I provide include feeding and refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering medications when needed and instructions are provided, playtime and enrichment activities, brushing and basic grooming, companionship, and providing regular updates and photos for pet parents while they are away. I understand that every cat is different—some enjoy interactive play and affection, while others prefer a calm presence and respect for their space—and I strive to provide care tailored to each individual pet. My current schedule allows me to devote a significant amount of time and attention to the pets in my care. Because I am not working another job at this time, I have a flexible availability that enables me to accommodate various schedules and spend quality time ensuring each cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit or extended care, I am committed to providing dependable, compassionate service that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I genuinely enjoy building trust with the animals I care for and take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to create a positive experience where cats can remain happy and relaxed in their familiar environment while their owners feel confident knowing they are receiving attentive and reliable care!
About: I’ve had and loved animals my whole life and have experience watching all sorts of animals in all shapes age and size. My hope is for both pets and parents to be so comfortable with me that being separated is stressfree ! I currently work roughly 9am -3:30 pm M-F. I am available to feed or let whoever out during lunch as well! Weekends I’m free all day !! I’m unable to bring animals into my home but am happy to visit and hangout with them in their homes!! If desired I’m always able to go for local walks/hikes or fetch depending on exercise needs!
“Kylee was great with our cat, visiting her during the two week period. We had a peace of mind knowing Shkoda is well taken care of. Kylee went beyond the tasks we requested when needed. Would definitely continue working with Kylee when needed.”
About: Ive always loved cats. Ive always had cats. I had a cat that had kittens once when I was a kid. I took care of the kittens (2) until they were able to be adopted. I know the importance of having water and a clean place to go to the bathroom for them. I clean the litter box at home at least every 2 days. I currently have 2 kitties. One I purchased that is a house cat and one that I adopted that is outdoors. Both are fixed and house trained.
“Brittany is very professional and loved my kitty kat Tucker even though he is terrified of strangers and wouldn't visit with her when she dropped in during the vacation week! She did everything needed for Tucker to be on his own and we would have her back with no hesitation - Thanx Brittany!”
“Lauren took such good care of our two cats Misty & Cleo, while we were gone for a month! They were happy and healthy when we returned from our trip. She was always on time for our twice daily visits, and we appreciate the daily updates. We have already booked her for our upcoming summer trips!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Mapleville
“Tux has always been anxious when left behind, but did very well with Emily all day. She was very attentive to his needs and he got along well with her other daycare pup. She sent numerous pictures and answered my texts right away when I checked in on him. She asked permission to take him on a short ride in her car, which I granted since he loves car rides and hates being left behind. I will definitely book with her again. Thanks, Emily, for taking such great care of our boy.”
About: My family and I absolutely love dogs we lost ours recently and I am not ready to get another one but would love to care for yours like he/she was our own. I have 3 very energetic kiddos that would love to play with and give lots of love and cuddles to your fur baby. I am a stay at home mom, we have no other animals of any kind so your fur baby will have all the attention when they stay with us. Please be understanding that no pets in the bed, its a very full bed already with 3 kids under 6.

“We knew the minute Heidi met us at the door for our Meet and Greet with Tux, our 13-year old Bichon-Poodle, that we had found the perfect sitter. Tux felt right at home wagging his tail at her kids and Moochie, her Golden Retriever. He sniffed around, as all dogs do, and made his way outside to explore in their fenced-in backyard. We had total peace of mind leaving Tux in her care. She updated us throughout the day with pictures of the kids snuggling and playing with him. We will look no where else when we need someone to care for Tux. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking to find the sweetest caregiver for your beloved pets.”
“Lejune provided soooo many pictures and updates, she made me feel like I was there every moment. Fiona haf a blast and was ready for bedtime by the time we came to pick her up. Great service and will definitely come back when I’m in the area again.”
“Charlie has been great with Sami! He sends photos and videos to calm any concerns I might have about leaving my sweet pup in daycare. I am confident Sami is in good hands when she visits Charlie and his family. Thanks for taking great care of my Sami!”
“Rosa did an excellent job taking care of my boy, she took him outside on plenty of walks, fed him the exact right amount, and sent me pictures throughout the day! I would highly recommend her to anybody who needs care for their pet.”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid. I love animals, as they are the most loving and authentic little beings. I’ve always had dogs and have taken care of family/friends/neighbors’ dogs when needed. I offer boarding, walks, a fenced in yard and socialization with my children and my own pets. Your pup will be in good hands and loved! My household always has an adult home for walks or ability to go out in the yard at anytime. We pop in and out on sports practice days in the evenings and for games on the weekends. Never more than 2 hours at a time. I have a large fenced in yard, can crate your pup and can offer walks, the ability to sit or lay on furniture, socialization for my kids, and socialization for my dog and other pets
“Ellen is great! She has a big heart and is an animal person through and through. We started out with a few boarding visits and now go to Ellen for day care every week. She’s very easy to work with and has a great location for dogs to run around/play/hike. Thanks Ellen!”
“Renee took great care of our dog at daycare! Good communication and sent pics/updates. Our fur baby came home happy and tired from a day of fun playing with Renee and her two dogs. Would recommend to anyone in need of doggie daycare and will definitely use her services again!”
“Arlene welcomed us into her lovely home and we immediately sensed that Sky was in a safe and loving place. It was evident throughout our contacts during the day that Sky was content and receiving good care. We highly recommend Arlene’s services for doggie daycare and will use her again when visiting the New Bern area.”
About: Need to board your fur baby before travel or place them in doggy/kitty daycare? I can help! As a pet owner myself, I know how frustrating it can be to find a good, safe place to leave my babies. That's why you can be rest assured that your doggy or kitty will be happy, comfortable, and surrounded by people who will love them and treat them and just like their own. Your fur babies will have a large space indoors to play and snuggle. They will have an even larger outdoor, fenced-in space to run and play as they wish. I have 5 years of experience caring for dogs. I work from home, so I am available all day to care for your pets, walk them and be there for them. They will feel right at home! I like to follow the schedule that the client has set for their pets at home so that pets can feel a sense of continuity in their new environment. I customize my care depending on each pet and their unique needs.
About: I am currently doing Rover part-time, I’m also working 2 other part-time jobs, however, for one of them I get to choose my own schedule. If given enough notice (usually a week) I can take off the days you’d need from one of my jobs, and then just schedule my other around it! I’ve had and taken care of dogs/cats since a young age. I love all animals and caring for them! Ive taken 2 pre-vet classes and would love to have a job working with animals full-time, no matter the job! As of now, I am caring for my 2 cats and leopard gecko! I only work Thurs-Sun, never more than 8 hours + my other job I can pick my own schedule! I am free all other weekdays to be able to take care of your pets! I am no longer able to do house sitting because I now have a baby to take care of, but if they are good with kids and cats, your pet is more than welcome to come stay with us! I prefer having the option to crate in case I need to go out for a bit, but I have taken care of pets who didn’t need one! Your pets are treated as my own when they are here, we take long walks around my apartment complex, I have treats for both cats and dogs, and many toys! Let me know if your pet has any allergies or dietary restrictions so they can be as healthy and happy as possible

“I love bringing Katara over for daycare! She always has a blast and never wants to leave. When I bring her home she is so tired from a long day of play. Thank you so much Sandra!”
“First off, Nadia is the sweetest! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and by speaking with her you learn she has our dog’s best interest at heart. We wanted daycare on days we both worked overnight and Nadia is very flexible. This was Daisy first ever day/time away from us and we woke up to so many updates and pictures….not sure how we got so lucky.”

About: I've owned and watched dogs since I was 10 years old. From small puppies, elderly dogs, to dogs huge as a mastiff and small as a chihuahua. Whether they be my own, friends, or families I held dear, being around and caring for dogs have always been a huge part of my life! I've fed them, bathed them, given them medicine, and have always been relable. Currently, I am mostly self-employed & studying for a Real Estate license. I do work mornings at a horse barn, and have a contract gig working occasional weekends with a D&D-styled Bed & Breakfast. Thankfully those shifts are scheduled months in advance and, for barn work, typically wrap up around 11-Noon. :) I'm always willing to give dogs the ample affections and pets they need! I'm super attentive to when they need to go outside/take a walk, have their food right on schedule, have some playtime, or whenever they just geniunely need attention and love. I honestly do it everyday for my own dogs. So I'll have no trouble giving them the same needs I give my precious wee babies.

About: I LOVE DOGS!! What more can I say? I have had dogs in my family, of my own and taken care of family dogs practically since I was born. I've been around dogs of all shapes and sizes and love all of them, no matter what! I have had experience with special diets, dog walking and even diabetic dogs (using diabetic test strips and glucometer). Sometimes I like to think of myself as a dog whisperer: I can get along with all dogs and read what they need or want. I'm also great at helping dogs to heal or get over their fears! I especially love giving and receiving loves (hugs, kisses and lots of cuddles and petting)! Give me your doggie babies! :D I would love to take care of them!
About: In my 18 years of caring for my "fur children", 4 of them have been done professionally during summer, winter, and spring breaks of my college life. I have cared for my neighbors dogs, family and friends dogs, and have even booked some Pups from the previous "dogvacay". I absolutely love dogs and other animals and treat them all as family. I am very observant when it comes to my doggos. I make sure to conduct full body checks to make sure there are no ticks or unusual lumps or defects and the pup gets a great massage while I am at it. As dogs strive to be our best friends, I too strive to make sure I become their best friend too! Thank you

“Dominika took great care of Stella. I would have her walk and care for my dog again. She was attentive, shared lots of pictures, and even went out of her way to text my mom to schedule based on her availability.”

About: I'm certified in CPR emergency vet services and have watched dogs in my home for years. If you are working long hours and or regular hours and need someone to take care of your dog while you're at work, I'm the one. Sometimes when we leave our dogs alone at home while we work they can get into a lot of things. They can get bored. They can be destructive and they get very lonely. Most of the clients that I work with have a job work long hours and their dogs at times have torn their house, their furniture or whatever they can find completely up and then they have such a mess when they get home. We love our dogs. We love them more than anything and it's hard to come home like that. So if you're tired of it and need someone to help, I'm the one for you. I'm retired. I have two dogs that are so used to other dogs. They don't get out of my sight. Believe me. I have leashes harnesses beds. Anything they need? Lots of toys and lots of activity. I don't have a fenced-in yard but that's why I take small dogs and I can walk them two to three times a day. Whatever you would like to have done. They are allowed on my furniture and in bed with me if they happen to spend the night. They have full run of the household just like mine does. My two dogs are small and they love other dogs after their first initial visit. My dogs are used to other dogs in my house that are not mine and we all get along. Meet and greets are essential. I love animals of all kinds, but I find that dogs are my ones that I can handle the best. It gives the owner peace of mind knowing that their dog is with someone that will take good care of them. So if you need somebody like me just me know. We'll see what we can work out. Randomly I will be able to watch them overnight. If something happens you have to work late or the weather gets bad and you can't make it to my home. That's not a problem. I've got a big bed and lots of blankets and lots of pillows and lots of dog beds if that's where they like to sleep. 🐾 All dogs must be up to date on shots and flea and tick medicine. All dogs will be checked when they come to my house to make sure that there's no fleas. If they do have fleas then I will bathe them And let you know that they need flea and tick medicine before they return. I have plenty of references if you request. I’m retired and am home all day. I’m prepared ahead of time for hosting dogs. The reason I have a one-day notice is so I can prepare my house with anything I may need so that there is no leaving the dogs by theirself. All pets free roam my home. They get to sleep wherever they are used to. They are fed according to the pet parents instructions. All pets get two to three walks a day .Lots of potty breaks, water provided outside and of course inside. They get lots of hugs and treats if aloud by pet parents.
About: I’ve had a dog my entire life. Since moving out on my own, I knew a way to keep myself busy was getting a dog of mine. So puppy hood it is! Enjoying every minute of it! Pet care fits into my everyday routine with currently having a puppy! Many walks, lots of playing and learning new things every day! Caring for my puppy is my top priority I would be happy to come care for your dog during the day, go on walks, play dates, anything to get them moving and out of the house!

“Renee always so loving to our dog Lily. She offers plenty of opportunities for play and cuddles. I recieve frequent updates and Lily always seemed to be right at home! Love that she has experience with pet sitting and it very aware of each individual dog in her care! :)”
“I was hesitant to leave my beagle with someone else while I went on a trip, but as soon as I met Emily and saw her home and yard, I knew it would be OK. It was more than OK! I never worried about Nelly and she clearly had a good time there.”
“We are incredibly grateful for the care Ellen gave Dugger and Maya this week. We had a last minute change in our schedule and needed to extend their stay by a day. Then on pickup day, I was going to arrive very late. She kindly and lovingly kept them an extra night without hesitation. While they were with her, she prepared delicious dinners for them, sent us videos and photos, and cared for them with so much love and attention. It is very clear that she truly loves what she does. Dugger and Maya absolutely love going to her farm, and we always feel at peace knowing they are in such good hands. We could not ask for better care.”
“Terri was the epitome of perfect. She was just what my pet Blossom needed. Attention, affection, love, she filled all of those things, and then some. She took many pictures kept us up-to-date, and eased my anxiety!!! I would use her again and again and again, top-notch for sure!!!”
“Megan took such great care of our dog! She kept us updated with photos throughout our stay and we could see how happy our pup was. Her kids were also so incredibly sweet and gentle with her! Definitely recommend and will absolutely be rebooking when we’re in need of a sitter in this area!”
“Janelle and Joel took excellent care of our two shepherds while we were away for a week. They were so naturally good with them from the first moment we introduced them. We were able to relax and sleep at night, knowing they were being loved and cared for! They sent regular updates and pictures, even a special one from each dog on Mother’s Day. ❤️”
“Annette is truly an amazing dog host. She knows animal behavior so well. Her own pets are wonderful and our dog loved visiting as a guest. She is an expert with regard to introducing pets to one another. I wish he could go on a mini-vacation once a week!”
“Sarah was wonderful about sending pictures and updates every day! She took great care of our little one and our puppy seemed very happy there. Thank you so much, Sarah, for treating her like family and taking great care of her. Will definitely book again!”
“We are so glad we found Olivia to care for our girls! This was her first time watching them and she was reliable and excellent in giving us updates with pictures of our dogs. Overall, we are very happy and so are Luna & Libby! 🐶 🐕”
“Jennifer is fantastic! She takes our puppy Gary almost every week while I'm at work. She's so flexible with drop off and pick up times, and is always willing to work with me. We're so lucky she's close by!”
“Nat & Ally were excellent with my girl. They were very accepting when I needed to change the dates several times. They sent lots of pictures so I could see my girl and how comfortable she was, particularly during a thunderstorm which she hates. I will definitely be booking with them in the future!”
“Charlie was an incredible dog sitter for my Boston Terrier, Huckleberry. From the start, he was kind, professional, and accommodating. I appreciated the regular photo updates of Huckleberry enjoying his time, especially at the park! Huckleberry loved hanging out with Charlie's two dogs, who were the perfect playmates. Even when I was late for pickup, Charlie was super understanding and flexible. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches, and I felt completely at ease knowing Huckleberry was in good hands. I highly recommend Charlie and will definitely book him again!”
“Our two dogs were well cared for and had lots of fun in Sandra's big play yard. We received daily updates and photos and Sandra was responsive at all times. Highly recommend!”
“Our 1.5yr old puppy, Birdie, was in the very best hands with Melissa during a recent boarding! Melissa is thorough in her intake, noting Birdie's food allergies and current schedule, and is warm and gentle in helping pups acclimate to a new environment. Melissa maintained Birdie's schedule, giving her plenty of outdoor and play time, and administered Birdie's medication, giving us peace of mind to focus on family. We enjoyed the handful of photos Melissa sent along the way and always appreciate her responsive communication. Melissa is deeply professional and the most thorough and warm caretaker and our expectations are always surpassed when Birdie is with Melissa!”
“They took wonderful care of our dog! They took her on field trips and adventures. They provided pictures and videos and were completely accommodating to our schedule and our dogs needs. Sammy had the best time and came home happy, healthy and tired! We felt completely at ease with them and their dog. Beautiful property for the dog to spend a weekend and we will happily use them again. Wonderful care of our dog without a worry! Thank you!”
“Amazing!!! Samantha and her family watched our corgi, Momo, for two whole weeks. We got daily pictures and videos and updates, which we LOVED. She took great care of him and treated him like her own <3 He really fell in love with them (and with Winston, their friendly family dog). I’m not sure Momo wanted to come home hahaha. Best experience I could’ve asked for!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid. I love animals, as they are the most loving and authentic little beings. I’ve always had dogs and have taken care of family/friends/neighbors’ dogs when needed. I offer boarding, walks, a fenced in yard and socialization with my children and my own pets. Your pup will be in good hands and loved! My household always has an adult home for walks or ability to go out in the yard at anytime. We pop in and out on sports practice days in the evenings and for games on the weekends. Never more than 2 hours at a time. I have a large fenced in yard, can crate your pup and can offer walks, the ability to sit or lay on furniture, socialization for my kids, and socialization for my dog and other pets
“Justin and Kacy took wonderful care of our pup! They were super flexible, responsive, and gave us great updates on Ahsoka and how she was doing while staying in their home. We would highly recommend them. I’m sure Ahsoka would love to go back again and hang out with her new dog buddies too! Thanks again!!”
