“Lili loved our two pups like they were here own. They came home very happy and tired. Lili also sent us lots of pictures and updates every day. I would highly recommend her! Thank you so much again Lili ♥️”
“Heather is the best! She takes great care of Indy, and is a strong communicator. Indy loves being at her house and has a great time in her fenced in yard. 10000% reccomend”
“If you love your dog and want someone who loves your dog as much as you do. Alexandra is that person. My dog had so much fun playing with all the dogs she has there. She has two of her own that are as sweet as can be. Her home is clean and beautiful, her back yard is big and fenced. She was very quick to respond to all my questions, she doesn't take mean dogs that are not a fit. I received many photos and videos during my dog's visit. I couldn't be happier to find Alexandra and will be using her services for as long as she continues to babysit my baby. I knew Alexandra was special because she enjoyed watching the dogs all play together as much as I did.”
“Annie is great with our 2 older dogs. Daily updates and photos showed us they are being taken care of with love and patience......they settled in nicely and Annie and her husband treat our dogs just as they do their own. We highly recommend Annie!”
“Luna is always loved when she goes. He sends updates and pictures, and this always reassures she is being well taken care of! Will be using again if we go out of town!”
“Mary was fantastic! I needed her last min for a long trip. My dogs can be a handful and Mary was extremely accommodating. She made my kids feel at home and she sent pics and updates that made my time away from them easier. My trip ended early and Mary offered to go above and beyond because of the circumstances. My kiddos came home tired and happy! Thank you!”
“Shiloh really enjoyed her sleepover at Lucia’s. She was well fed, got to make some new doggie friends, and best of all got lots of love and attention. Shiloh and I highly recommend Lucia, she’s kind, patient, and caring.”
“Excellent experience with Jennifer. Took my pup in on short notice and was extremely flexible for drop off and pick up. Sent pictures and kept us updated on how things were going. Will definitely use again!”
“I left my 6 month old Vizsla with Lindy for my first time being away from her since I got her. She sent me pictures and videos everyday while I was gone which made it easier being away from my puppy. I would highly suggest her to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the area. My puppy came home extremely happy and sleepy which is great for me after a long trip!”
“David took great care of my pup while I went out of town. He updated me with messages and pictures each day, which I really appreciated. My pup looked so happy and relaxed, clearly she had a great little vacation too! Highly recommend and would definitely book again.”
“I cannot say enough great things about this dog sitting family! My two dogs absolutely adored their two kiddos! They enjoyed playing outside with the family's dog, Yogi. Even Rowen, who usually prefers staying inside, joined in on the fun and had a wonderful time.🤗 I felt at ease the whole time I was out of town because they kept me updated and sent pictures. 10/10 would recommend 👌🏽”

“I needed a boarding for a couple of nights for my dog, Kinako, at the very last minute. Jessica and her family were very accommodating to my request. When we had a meet in the evening before, I had a faith and I knew they are the ones! Kinako immediately made herself comfortable at their home. Their dog is sweet and friendly. They made friends with each other right away. While I was away, it was great to see the update picture, and I felt at ease. When I picked Kinako up, I could tell that she had a wonderful time at their lovely home. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us. Kinako and I are looking forward to the next opportunities.”
“Brooke is amazing. She and her beautiful family welcomed Jack Jack with open arms and he immediately felt at home in her house. We were happy he was so comfortable and we are very pleased to see him just as happy when we picked him up. We plan on using her services again in the near future.”
“Nathan and Courtney are good people who opened their home to our beloved dog, and also to us when we paid them a visit. Excellent almost daily communication with pictures were provided. Penny was taken on daily walks, and also entertained by their gentle kitties, dog and other barnyard pets! She was calm and happy when we picked her up.”
“Ana was phenomenal with my fur baby! Right off the bat I could tell she was thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely cared about our little furry family members she provides care to. I am sooo grateful I found Ana on Rover, and if I should need to board my sweet little fur baby in Fayetteville again in the future, Ana will be the first person I reach out to. Thank you Ana! 😇”
About: Hi! I’m your friendly neighborhood pet sitter—animal nerd, plant parent, and professional chaos manager 🌿🐾 From pocket-sized hamsters to majestic Great Danes, opinionated parrots to mysterious snakes, I love animals of every variety. Fur, feathers, or scales? I’m in. I approach pet care like a science and an art—learning routines, decoding body language, and adapting my care to match each pet’s unique personality (yes, even the dramatic ones). When I’m not hanging out with pets, I’m probably fussing over plants and making sure every living thing around me is thriving. Whether it’s following a color-coded care sheet, calming nervous pets, administering meds, or watering your beloved jungle, I’ve got it handled. You can head out knowing your pets (and plants!) are safe, spoiled, and genuinely cared for by someone who treats every home like a tiny ecosystem worth protecting. 🐈🌸🐶🐍🌱 Your furry, feathered, or scaly friends will be happy, safe, and well-loved while you're away! My wife and I recently made the move to Southern Pines from Florida and have been enjoying getting to know the community—especially its many pets! I believe good pet care starts with clear expectations, happy routines, and making sure every member of the household—furred, feathered, scaled, or leafy—feels safe and well looked after. I’m happy to offer pet sitting, house sitting, doggy daycare, and more. I have a large fenced backyard for safe playtime and live in a lovely, pet-friendly neighborhood, perfect for walks, adventures, or just soaking up some sun.

“Victoria did a wonderful job taking care of our cat while we were gone. She took multiple pictures which made me feel so much better about leaving her and based on the pictures my cat absolutely loved her! She was very friendly and next time we go out of town, we will definitely ask Victoria first.”
“Izzy was awesome! She was incredibly thorough in her care of our cats. Other sitters in the past have just fed them, cleaned their litter box, and left. Izzy actually stayed, played with the cats, gave them treats, and lots of extra love while we were gone. Highly recommend her! We will be using her again!”
“Melissa was absolutely wonderful while watching over my three cats, Ponyo, Beaux, and Niko during my trip to Texas. She had great communication the entire time, was always prompt, and made sure they were fed, played with, and that the litter boxes stayed clean. She was very friendly, easy to talk to, and immediately made me feel comfortable leaving my cats in her care. It was also really reassuring to read about her education and background with animals, especially since Beaux is a senior kitty that I naturally worry about whenever I travel. It was great meeting her, and I would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone needing pet care help. She genuinely gave me peace of mind while I was away. 💜”
“Brittani did an amazing job caring for our two kittens for over a week! It’s clear she truly knows and loves animals, which made all the difference. There’s no better feeling than being away from your pets and knowing they’re in such trustworthy hands. I highly recommend her 100%!”
“Alanna took care of my two kitties for 6 days. I honestly don’t feel comfortable leaving them with anyone else but her. She sent me the cutest pictures and videos of them playing and cuddling. This is my 2nd booking with Alanna and definitely not the last :). Thank you Alanna!”
“Emerald has done check-ins for my cat a couple times while I was out of town. She is very caring and reliable. She sent updates and photos for each visit. I feel that she went above and beyond in her services. I could see that my cat felt safe and loved her from the photos she sent, but also when we got home he was happy as could be.”
About: I've had experience in handling and providing care for cats of all temperaments from my own to working with boarding cats at kennels and the SPCA. I am comfortable adminstering medicine through food or using a pill pusher or pill pockets. Growing up one of my cats had issues with her kidneys and I administered her pills with a pusher as it was the only way to reliability know she received her life saving medicine every morning. I have a young cat of my own who is a bit on the spunky side but I love him reguardless of all the sass! At the SPCA I made sure all our cats in the facility were fed and had a clean kennel. I enjoyed free time providing enrichment through play or for the more shy cats sitting quietly and allowing them to come and go as they pleased.
“We were in need of someone to come help watch over our pup while my now wife and I got married. Marcia was awesome and took away any worries. Definitely my go to for any future needs. Would recommend using Marcia if you’re ever in need of some help.”
“We continue to be amazed by Stephanie. She came to the rescue for an urgent drop-in visit and we can’t be grateful enough that the pups trust and adore her so completely that she can drop by with such ease. Thank you again, Stephanie!”
“We love Ciera and definitely refer her to everyone! We are repeat clients of hers. She’s passionate about caring for our two puppies and even stops by to say hello to them if she’s in the neighborhood caring for other animals.”
“If you want peace of mind for your pets while you are away, Holly will give you that!! She is wonderful. We loved getting the daily updates and photos/videos. The kitties were comfortable with Holly. She made them feel loved and well taken care of. She even went out of her way to bring in our house Amazon boxes that were delivered. We love Holly and will be booking with her again each time we are away!!”

“Charlotte had a great day with Lilli and her family! We are thinking she will be in the rotation now for my Charli girl. So many cute pics and I could tell she was loved. I was nervous since it was a first day. But Charlotte was tired when she came home so she must have been played and cuddled. We look forward to spending the week with Lilli and her pups!”
“Shea is awesome! Messaged me throughout the day with updates on Pepper (doggy day care at sitter's house). Our dogs got along really well and played hard! Definitely rebooking and recommend.”
“Alexander was amazing with our pup Blue. He was very communicative, nice, and welcoming to our boy. He sent photos and updates throughout the day. I felt really safe leaving our boy in his csre Blue had a really great time, and came home tired from all the fun he had. We will definitely use his services again!”
About: Hi, I’m Izzy – an educator and lifelong animal lover! I grew up with cats and dogs and now have two sweet, friendly pups of my own. I’ve worked at a dog grooming salon, cared for pets over school breaks, and love providing reliable care when pet parents need a helping hand. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer or a mellow homebody, I’ll adapt to their needs and give them all the love they deserve. I’m happy to provide references from other families I've worked with! I look forward to connecting soon. I work remotely as a teacher so I am available during the week and on weekends! I am happy to come to your house for drop in visits or walks. I also do offer doggy daycare in my home for one dog a day. I have two dogs of my own who love to have visitors. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I’ve cared for dogs both in my home and in their own familiar space. I always follow your pet’s routine and preferences to make sure they feel secure. I have two friendly, crate-trained dogs who love making new friends, and my home is pet-safe and well set up for boarding or drop-ins. I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so you feel totally at ease!
“Lucia was amazing with my two dogs. One of which is super shy but she made her feel so at home that in just two visits had her snuggle with her. Loved all the photos too! Definitely using her again.”
About: Hi! I’m Kat — and I offer personalized walks and enrichment as a trusted extension of your dog’s care team. I know how hard it is to leave your dog. They’re family. Clear communication and consistency matter, and I take that seriously. Every visit is an opportunity to build trust — with both you and your pup. You’ll receive thoughtful updates that include notes on energy, potty, behavior, and anything I’m noticing (because yes, I absolutely pay attention to the details). I truly treat each dog as the individual they are. Some are bold explorers. Some are thoughtful observers. Some love a purposeful walk, while others prefer a slower pace with time to sniff and take it all in. I adjust each visit based on age, health, temperament, and your household routines — meeting your dog where they are and supporting what helps them thrive. I’m especially attentive to patterns — what helps a dog feel calm, confident, and engaged. Safety and steady leadership are always my priorities. I’m mindful at doors, leashes, transitions, and the environment around us so your dog’s experience is secure, structured, and positive.
“Kristina was absolutely AMAZING with our sweet Ozzy girl ❤️ She kept us updated and sent tons of pictures and videos of Ozzy & her beautiful pup Murphy hanging out and playing together! Would recommend her to anyone who wants the best of the best for their fur baby❤️”
About: I’ve owned up to 4 dogs at a time. Having that many dogs in my house together, I’ve learned how to meet their needs and keep them happy. I’d put two at a time on one leash which made walking them easier. I’ve always been the “go to” person when my family or friends needed a pet sitter. My passion has always been children and animals. I was a teacher’s aide for the past 27 years. Now that I’m retired I’d like to switch gears and spend time taking care of dogs. My home is dog friendly. I have a fenced in yard on a quiet cul-de-sac. I also have two sweet dogs of my own that are friendly and playful.

About: I survived teaching first and second grade for over 35 years so I can do anything! I am a new grandma and I’m so excited! I have two sweet pups who love having news friends come over and play. I am very flexible and I am very willing to get the work done with your pup or puppies! I will do whatever it takes to make it work. Although I don’t have a fenced in yard I will make sure they are on a leash if needed when going out to do their business. I love to walk multiple times a day so you can be assured they will get lots of attention and exercise.
“Jacki was amazing with my puppy! She is very flexible and accommodating. My puppy is not fully potty trained or crate trained yet and it was difficult to find someone to take him. Jacki was a lifesaver! She was the perfect fit for us. Highly recommend.”
“Cameron was excellent. She provided great care for my dog and her puppy Haggis is so sweet and playful. She was very responsive and her fenced in yard is perfect for dogs to play.”
“Jennifer was very accommodating and friendly. We dropped our dog two days in a row for daycare, and he was very happy when we picked him and excited to return the next day. We will definitely go to Jennifer again when we’re back in Pinehurst.”
“Jeannette was very attentive to my dog’s needs. She was updating me throughout the day and were able to recognize Mia’s behaviors. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a doggy day care. And her puppy is incredibly friendly and adorable, too. Makes for an amazing companion for your pet.”
About: I’ve dog sat for my friends in this area on and off for years. I grew up on a ranch with animals and am comfortable with them. I have a 3 year old chocolate lab who absolutely loves friends to play with and has never had any issues with other dogs or people. I currently work part time, and have a lot of days with full flexibility. Most mornings after my kids go to school I’m free, and weekends or evenings my 12 year old and 8 year old love to walk with or play with dogs with me. My yard is fenced in, and my home is dog friendly. I’m happy to stay in clients homes as well if my schedule with my children allows. I don’t mind driving a bit to go to different neighborhoods for walking either.
“Rebecca took really good care of my boys. They were completely worn out by the time they got home. I really appreciate her quick response to my last minute request. She really saved the day keeping my 2, 8 month old puppies.”

“Such a relief finding such a great sitter! We know our dog is in good hands getting exercise, play time, and socialization- and always detailed notes and pictures how the day was. Found our go-to!”
“Melissa has been taking very good care of my pug and goes above and beyond in what she does. I feel safe with her walking my dog and entering and exiting my home. I couldn't reccomend her enough.”
“Izzy was great with my German Shepherd! She was punctual and made sure he got his breakfast and medication. She took lots of pictures and left detailed updates on her visit. I would definitely trust her with my pup again! :)”
About: I have taken care of dogs and other kinds of pets since I was 14. My family and friends rely on me to come check in, walk, and play with their pets. I am available anytime during the day this summer. I do have a couple vacations already planned but I will communicate if something conflicts with the care you need for your pets! I have a fenced yard and 4 pugs that love to run around! My pets have plenty of toys they love to play with and they get fed twice a day. My cat also has plenty of toys and scratching posts, he also gets fed twice a day.
“Emetals stepped in on very short notice when my regular dog walker had an emergency, and she was amazing. She was incredibly responsive, warm, and worked with me to find the best schedule for my 7 month old puppy. What stood out most was how happy and relaxed my pup was when I got home. This tells me she felt comfortable and well cared for. That alone says everything to me about the care Emerald provided. I’d absolutely trust her with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely caring.”
About: I have had pets all my life. I have had dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters. Dogs are my favorite and I treat them as part of the family. I currently stay at home and homeschool my son. I have a very flexible schedule. In saying that, I am willing to work around your schedule. I have a large fenced in backyard that your dogs can run free in and have a great time. Or they have space to just lay in the sun, like most dogs enjoy doing at times :)
“My dogs love Annie! Even my dog who typically does not like other people loves the little treats Annie brings and the walks she takes them on. My dogs were well taken care of and got to socialize with Annie's dog during their boarding stay. Annie is flexible and reliable and goes out of her way to be helpful. Highly recommend!”
About: I've had pets my whole life and love them all. I currently have 2 dogs, a cat, 5 chickens, a lizard and a fish. I am a nurse by training and have successfully cared for sick animals at home many times. I have cared for friends dogs for many years and would be happy to love on yours! I am currently not working outside the home so I am available almost anytime. I am happy to meet yours and your pet's needs! I will be happy to follow all directions you give me for caring for your pet. I know how important that is when I leave my own pets with others!
“Rex loved walking around with Bailey. She took great care of him. She was able to adjust well to his needs for his walks. I would absolutely recommend Bailey for those looking for a dog walker!”

About: I’ve taken care of small and large dogs. I own an anxious queen who needs lots of special attention, and she’s taught me a lot of dog behavior and signs. I’m a teacher on summer break, so I have all day to spend exercising your pup! I take my own dog on lots of walks, but am mindful of the heat and need for hydration. I pay attention to what the dog is comfortable with and love on them like they’re my own (treats, pets, play, encouraging words, etc.). If they need space, though, I understand.
About: My experience in pet care is extensive. From helping raise and train my own family dogs as child, to working at different animal facilities, I have experience in many different/difficult situations I may face. While I lived in New York I worked at a high end Doggy Daycare and boarding facility that prided itself in creating a certified "fear free" environment for dogs. In a daycare setting I handled and monitored up to 25 dogs in a safe and ethical way. I learned how to read different dog body language cues and how to handle small to XL size dogs. I took a lot of pride in the environment I created for my playgroups so dogs could enjoy safe, fun interactions with each other. I also worked as a kennel technician at the same facility. I did potty breaks for up to 50 dogs, cleaned kennels to propers standards and provided enrichment and feeding for all of our guests. I have experience in how to handle aggressive or stand offish dogs in a safe and manageable way. I also learned a lot about animal health and helped provide care for special needs guests who may have disabilities due to age or that were on seizure watch. Any issues or concerns I had health wise were immediately brought to my supervisors so it could be brought to the owners attention. I worked at Resorts Boarding and Play in two different times for about a year and a half total. After my time at this facility I worked at the SPCA Serving Erie County as an animal caretaker. It was here I gained more exposure to different temperaments in dogs and cats and how to work with them while also cleaning their kennels so they had a clean safe space to enjoy. I enjoyed helping all these pets in desperate need and watching them come out of their shells and experience joy more and more. It was one of the most rewarding parts of that job! When I moved to North Carolina I spent a few months working at 7 Lakes Kennels as a kennel technician again. I cleaned kennels and helped pair dogs for daycare play. I handled medicine distribution to dogs who needed it, cleaned potty yards and of course, played with many dogs! I again had previous experience in handling some tougher dogs so I was comfortable in helping others with some guests who had behavioral challenges. I also did feedings for the guests under my care for the day and took everyone out for potty walks at allotted times. Although I have only professionally been in the pet care industry for about 3 years I consider most of my life as experience from also doing all pet care for my animals growing up, including pushing pills for my childhood cat who had issues with kidney function. I fed all my childhood pets morning and night. I handled supplements for my goldendoodle who had hip and joint issues later in life. I have tons of techniques to help dogs take medicine in an enticing manner. I also made sure my dogs received 20-30 minutes of intense exercise a day to meet their large dog requirements as goldendoodles. They preferred playing ball but also enjoyed added on walks. I am sincerely passionate about providing top-notch care to pets and have shown that to many previous employers who always enjoyed my attention to detail and efforts to work with the animals regardless of any behavior issues or health concerns they faced. I am stay at home as of now so I have plenty of free time on my hands. I prefer to be at home rather than out so the only time I gone really is to run errands or be at the gym. I enjoy an active lifestyle so I do walk my dogs a bit or allow them to run around outside and play with them. I have a set feeding schedule for them. Breakfast is 8 am and dinner is 5 pm. I have done both of my dogs basic obedience myself as I'm looking to advance in the dog training field. I hope to start schooling soon to get my certifications. I have used different techniques for both of my dogs as they have different temperaments. I strive to understand my dogs thoroughly and work with them rather than force them into overwhelming situations. We always start small and build from there once they show they understand a concept or become more comfortable in a new environment. Both of my dogs are crate trained. I love them very much but I finds crates are a very helpful tool to help teach self control and give them a space they can call their own. I am happy to follow any instructions you may have for me through a text message or written out on paper. If you have any concerns I am happy to communicate with you while you are away! At one boarding facility we would send out pictures every three days of a fun activity we did with the dogs to help ease owners minds. I am more than willing to do something like that for you everyday! I totally understand the worry of being away from your best friends! I do ask if your dog boards with me that they come with their crate/kennel. I find it a bit easier for a dog to decompress in a new environment if they have something that is familiar for them. Blankets that smell like you are a plus. I am more than willing to clean toys and bedding before you come to pick up your buddy again. If you want feeding done at certain times I'm happy to do that as I have a free schedule just taking care of my home. Walks, playtime and interacting with dogs are must to keep spirits up while you are away so I am happy to provide these services as well! Of course attention and love is given regardless to any pet I am watching! I am comfortable adminstering medication according to labels or any supplements/treats you provide your pets! I ALWAYS listen to and watch dogs for body language cues. I find that respecting dogs leads to a much better relationship between caretakers and friends. I have extensive training through "The Dog Gurus" my first employer provided all employees. This taught me different play styles for breeds, how to monitor health through potty habits and what to look for in concerning poop. I learned the warning signs of seizures and how to handle them as well as what to watch for if a dog may have a parasitic infection. I was also taught signs of stress and techniques to help prevent them through providing familiar scents, toys or approach. I am aware of and use certain skills in approaching nervous dogs-become smaller and less threatening by turning your back slightly and not holding direct eye contact. I always allow a dog to approach me by offering my hand from a distance and letting them decide if they want to interact or not. For dogs who were sensitive or reactive about touch around their neck while working I used a "double slip lead" technique so I wouldn't have to get into their personal space while putting a lead on them. It also made it safer to remove a lead by never having to physically touch the dog, rather gently pull one lead attached around the other and they would both safely slip off the dog. Understanding a dogs temperament and triggers is vital for me to work safely and effectively with any dog I encounter or interact with. Please always offer all information on your dog to me during a meet and greet session. I would rather have "too much" information on your dog than feel like I'm scrambling with questions later on while you are away. I enjoy working with all different types of dogs and love learning about their personalities and things they enjoy. I feel confident in my skill level and experience to provide safe, loving, enjoyable care for all your four legged family members.

About: **Unfortunately due to the app taking 20% of my pay, I’ve had to increase my pricing. Happy to work around this and discuss further** I've had at least 10 years of dog sitting experience, however I grew up with animals of all sorts in my family. From reptiles, small animals, cats and dogs, I’ve cared for them all. I am definitely an animal lover, and will treat your pets as my own for the time they'll be with us! I'm not only responsible, and trustworthy, but I am available full time and have room for a flexible schedule. I am currently unemployed aside from rover, so I am available for frequent walks and play time. If you have any further questions, I am always open to meeting clients prior to them booking a service with me. Thank you ! I will spend a lot of time with them, making sure they’re comfortable and happy. I’m home all day since I go to school online, so I have plenty of time to watch and spend time with them. I love to go for long walks with the dogs, and take them to the local dog park to play (only if approved by owner) I treat my clients pet as if they’re my own, with care, attention and lots of love. I make sure they’re comfortable, and if they’re shy I give them the time and space to adjust. I have had experience with dogs and cats with many different personalities. You can trust that they will be taken care of & loved.
About: Caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve spent time looking after pets for friends, family, and neighbors—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I pay close attention to their personalities and needs so they feel right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I build my schedule around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I ensure each pet receives consistent attention, exercise, and care. I keep my schedule organized so I can be reliable and fully present for every visit. I care for pets in their own home where they feel safest and most relaxed. I stick to their usual routine—meals, walks, playtime, and downtime—so nothing feels disrupted while you’re away. I spend quality time with each pet, not just quick visits, and always make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved. I also keep you updated so you have peace of mind.
About: I love animals especially dogs! I regularly volunteer at a dog shelter, have owned dogs my whole life, and believe every dog deserves to have the best day ever! I am available for walks, taking them to the park, playing fetch, or coming into your home for visits. I’m currently in between jobs so I have lots of time to spend with your pet! If you need walks daily or vacation I’m your girl I make sure the pets I’m caring for are safe, have water and food, activity, and a comfy place to sit, I am willing to follow your instructions

“Lili loved our two pups like they were here own. They came home very happy and tired. Lili also sent us lots of pictures and updates every day. I would highly recommend her! Thank you so much again Lili ♥️”
“Heather is the best! She takes great care of Indy, and is a strong communicator. Indy loves being at her house and has a great time in her fenced in yard. 10000% reccomend”
“If you love your dog and want someone who loves your dog as much as you do. Alexandra is that person. My dog had so much fun playing with all the dogs she has there. She has two of her own that are as sweet as can be. Her home is clean and beautiful, her back yard is big and fenced. She was very quick to respond to all my questions, she doesn't take mean dogs that are not a fit. I received many photos and videos during my dog's visit. I couldn't be happier to find Alexandra and will be using her services for as long as she continues to babysit my baby. I knew Alexandra was special because she enjoyed watching the dogs all play together as much as I did.”
“Annie is great with our 2 older dogs. Daily updates and photos showed us they are being taken care of with love and patience......they settled in nicely and Annie and her husband treat our dogs just as they do their own. We highly recommend Annie!”
“Mary was fantastic! I needed her last min for a long trip. My dogs can be a handful and Mary was extremely accommodating. She made my kids feel at home and she sent pics and updates that made my time away from them easier. My trip ended early and Mary offered to go above and beyond because of the circumstances. My kiddos came home tired and happy! Thank you!”
“I left my 6 month old Vizsla with Lindy for my first time being away from her since I got her. She sent me pictures and videos everyday while I was gone which made it easier being away from my puppy. I would highly suggest her to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the area. My puppy came home extremely happy and sleepy which is great for me after a long trip!”
“David took great care of my pup while I went out of town. He updated me with messages and pictures each day, which I really appreciated. My pup looked so happy and relaxed, clearly she had a great little vacation too! Highly recommend and would definitely book again.”
“I cannot say enough great things about this dog sitting family! My two dogs absolutely adored their two kiddos! They enjoyed playing outside with the family's dog, Yogi. Even Rowen, who usually prefers staying inside, joined in on the fun and had a wonderful time.🤗 I felt at ease the whole time I was out of town because they kept me updated and sent pictures. 10/10 would recommend 👌🏽”
About: My background spans everything from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. I do not just monitor pets, I actively engage them. I focus on positive reinforcement, structure, and maintaining your exact home routine. Owners trust me because I treat their pets like my own. You will receive consistent updates, clear communication, and total peace of mind while you are away. Because I work from home, your pet receives my full attention. My flexible routine ensures consistent neighborhood walks, frequent potty breaks, and dedicated companionship all day long. Whether you need overnight boarding, interactive playdates, daily walking, or quick potty breaks, I easily accommodate your schedule. I offer a safe home environment with one friendly dog for constant companionship. Our routine includes daily leashed neighborhood walks and optional off-leash socialization trips to Martin Dog Park. I also provide secure crating at night for a safe, restful sleep.
“I needed a boarding for a couple of nights for my dog, Kinako, at the very last minute. Jessica and her family were very accommodating to my request. When we had a meet in the evening before, I had a faith and I knew they are the ones! Kinako immediately made herself comfortable at their home. Their dog is sweet and friendly. They made friends with each other right away. While I was away, it was great to see the update picture, and I felt at ease. When I picked Kinako up, I could tell that she had a wonderful time at their lovely home. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us. Kinako and I are looking forward to the next opportunities.”
“Nathan and Courtney are good people who opened their home to our beloved dog, and also to us when we paid them a visit. Excellent almost daily communication with pictures were provided. Penny was taken on daily walks, and also entertained by their gentle kitties, dog and other barnyard pets! She was calm and happy when we picked her up.”
“Ana was phenomenal with my fur baby! Right off the bat I could tell she was thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely cared about our little furry family members she provides care to. I am sooo grateful I found Ana on Rover, and if I should need to board my sweet little fur baby in Fayetteville again in the future, Ana will be the first person I reach out to. Thank you Ana! 😇”
About: Hi! I’m your friendly neighborhood pet sitter—animal nerd, plant parent, and professional chaos manager 🌿🐾 From pocket-sized hamsters to majestic Great Danes, opinionated parrots to mysterious snakes, I love animals of every variety. Fur, feathers, or scales? I’m in. I approach pet care like a science and an art—learning routines, decoding body language, and adapting my care to match each pet’s unique personality (yes, even the dramatic ones). When I’m not hanging out with pets, I’m probably fussing over plants and making sure every living thing around me is thriving. Whether it’s following a color-coded care sheet, calming nervous pets, administering meds, or watering your beloved jungle, I’ve got it handled. You can head out knowing your pets (and plants!) are safe, spoiled, and genuinely cared for by someone who treats every home like a tiny ecosystem worth protecting. 🐈🌸🐶🐍🌱 Your furry, feathered, or scaly friends will be happy, safe, and well-loved while you're away! My wife and I recently made the move to Southern Pines from Florida and have been enjoying getting to know the community—especially its many pets! I believe good pet care starts with clear expectations, happy routines, and making sure every member of the household—furred, feathered, scaled, or leafy—feels safe and well looked after. I’m happy to offer pet sitting, house sitting, doggy daycare, and more. I have a large fenced backyard for safe playtime and live in a lovely, pet-friendly neighborhood, perfect for walks, adventures, or just soaking up some sun. Your furry, feathered, or scaly friends will be happy, safe, and well-loved while you’re away!
