“Meagan and her family were wonderful with my girl, Sookie! Sookie needs to be around confident dogs and Maegan's two were exactly that. From the first moment we met, I knew that "we had a match" for my dog. All the pictures and updates from Maegan were reassuring and it was clear to see that things were going very well. She clearly loves all dogs and is very attentive and in tune with their moods and actions. Her home and fenced yard were secure, safe, comfortable and very welcoming. My one concern going into this was that Maegan has small children and my dog hasn't been around many. But I expressed my unnecessary concern and learned that her kids are as professional, sensitive and loving of dogs as their parents. Five stars doesn't seem like enough!”

“I loved the stay with Yueqian. She sent me plenty of cute daily pictures, which helped a lot with my anxiety since this was my first stay for my dog. Kitty was healthy and happy when returned home. I cannot wait to continue booking with Yueqian.”

“Stephanie and Jared were wonderful with our 12 year old Yorkie Bichon! They sent updates often with pictures of Sunnie on walks and adventures and relaxing at their home. Sunnie looked comfortable and happy! We were away for 5 days across the country for our daughter’s wedding and never had to worry that Sunnie was being well-cared for! Sunnie had a sore paw that we noticed when I dropped her off and Stephanie kept me updated as it improved and soon Sunnie was back to taking long walks with them. I highly recommend Stephanie and Jared! They took excellent care of our “baby”. I will not hesitate to leave her with them again the next time we need care for Sunnie.”


“Took care of Lupe on a 14 day trip. Lupe is a little older and a wheaten terrier. Sometimes with an older dog and a little terrier in her, she could be a little quirky. But Taylor and his family accommodated Lupe very nicely and I am very grateful to have had their service and allowed their home for Lupe to stay as I had to travel for work.”


“This was our first experience using Rover and Kate was the perfect fit for our dog Rio! She kept us posted while we were on vacation with pics and videos of the dogs playing, relaxing and exercising! Rio enjoyed his vacation as much as we did!”
“Robert did a fantastic job taking care of our dog frankie! I can highly recommend him for anyone looking for competent and empathetic care for their pet in Wilmington!!”

“Jerry was amazing and took excellent care of Raya. He even celebrated her first birthday with a pup cup and doggy cookies! I very much appreciated the updates and pictures of how she was doing. Highly recommend Jerry!”

“If I could leave more stars I would, I can not recommend Kyle enough! Our pups stayed for a week and had a blast. Kyle kept in contact with updates, brought them to see us (we were local to a fun spot for them to try the beach out), and he took wonderful care of our puppies. If you need a sitter in the area, I would definitely recommend going with Kyle!”

“Sue-Ling was amazing with my pup. It was his first time ever being boarded away from me and she kept me updated on him and how he was doing. She was very attentive. I will be booking with her again!”

“Kaylah and family are the best boarders we ever had for our fury friends . They feel like at home once boarded and have no problem to stay . What a great family and well educated kids !”

“We love Haley and her sweet gentle little girl. They took great care of our Chi Chi. This was our 1st time using Rover and we were a little nervous. We will never be nervous again as long as Haley is available. Special points for her large backyard. Lots of room for pups to play.”

“Lara did a outstanding job with our little dog Izzy. She kept us informed on how Izzy was doing with photos, videos, and text messages since we were gone for two weeks to visit our family in Anchorage. We will definitely use her again. I was afraid that our Izzy wasn't going to want to come back home. I highly recommend that you give her a try. Very reasonable compared to other sitters.”

“Erin was a great sitter! She provided lots of updates and my cattle dog had lots of fun running around with her golden retriever in their huge fenced yard. Would definitely use Erin again in the future!”

“Angela did a great job of taking care of our dog! She kept us well informed of his activities and dogshe was playing with. She sent lot so pictures. I think our dog really enjoyed her backyard -- he doesn't have one at home.”

“Andrew and Erin, I’ve been the best pet sitters we could ask for! Our little multi-Pooh, Chloe, absolutely loves them, and has a great time with them! They are very communicative, kind and send lots of pictures and updates. It makes leaving her so much easier knowing that she’s having a great time while I’m gone.”

“Reggie enjoyed his time with Danielle. He followed her around and enjoyed sitting on the couch next to her. He also liked being around her dogs. I liked that there was a fenced in backyard. For out of town visitors the Brunswick beaches, this is a very convenient drop off.”

“Andrea was quick to accommodate our last minute booking and did a wonderful job keeping us updated during our dog - Lupine’s stay with her. Lupine came home happy, relaxed and tired after her sleepover. She can be shy around excited people but Andrea and her home seemed like a calm respite. I would definitely recommend Andrea and will use her again when we’re in the area.”
“Amy was wonderful! She sent me updates everyday. My pup is high energy and can be a handful but Amy was able to make her feel like part of the family. In fact my pup almost didn't want to leave. We will definitely use her again!”

“Mia was amazing with my anxious dog Reya! She was very communicative, took great care of her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would recommend Mia to anyone!”

About: I understand how nerve wracking it can be to have someone new care for your baby! I’ve been caring for pups for roughly 10 years. I’m typically the go-to sitter for my friends but and family.

“Yueqian is very professional and experienced in taking care of dogs. Wren spent a wonderful time at the dog park with Yueqian and her three dogs, and enjoyed a walk in another park as well. Yueqian also sent me some photos of Wren to give me an update. When I picked up Wren, she looks happy, showing no signs of separation anxiety even though it was her first daycare experience. I highly recommend Yueqian for anyone looking for a caring and professional dog daycare service. Thank you for taking such great care of Wren!”

“Sherry is an amazing dog sitter! She and her family are so loving and speak the dog’s language. They love my dog as though she’s their own and it shows. My dog comes home so relaxed and content after visits with Sherry! Highly recommend!!!”

“Desi was able to dog sit at her place near Boone on very short notice allowing me to attend a non dog friendly event. My dog had a great time exploring the property and meeting other friendly dogs. I would definitely work with Desi again as she is prompt, has clear availability and clearly loves dogs!”


“Taylor and his family were SO sweet and I could not be more grateful for them! Taylor sent lots of pictures and I could tell Beaux had a great time. We will definitely be booking with Taylor next time we’re in the area.”

“Jessica & Kevin were fantastic! My dog came home super tired after playing with their dog all day. I Couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my pup. 10 out of 10 recommended and will definitely be using again.”


About: Years of firsthand experience have equipped me with an innate understanding of dogs' needs, behaviors, and preferences, enabling me to create a nurturing and engaging environment for my furry visitors. Working from home allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine, ensuring that my furry companions receive ample attention and care throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I can prioritize regular walks, play sessions, and feeding times to meet their needs. Whether it's taking short breaks for cuddle sessions or incorporating outdoor activities into my lunch break, your pup will never be far from my side. What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my extensive experience coupled with the ideal setup of a fenced-in backyard and my loyal canine companion. My backyard serves as a safe and stimulating space where dogs can play, exercise, and socialize under my watchful eye, enhancing their overall well-being and enjoyment during their stay. Having a furry companion of my own adds an extra layer of comfort and familiarity for visiting dogs, fostering a sense of camaraderie and companionship that sets my dog-sitting service apart from the rest.
“Jerry was absolutely amazing! My booking was pretty last minute because I was so scrambled that weekend, but Jerry was able to pull through and helped me so much! Bud looked like he had an absolute blast with Jerry and Bud got taken on so many new adventures which he looked like he absolutely loved. Jerry was even able to pick up Bud for me which saved me so much time that morning and gave him a bath for me before I went to go pick up Bud later that day! Jerry is literally so amazing and I will definitely book with him again in the future!”

“My Benji boy lovedddd going to Aunna’s house for daycare! He would run right up to her and not even look back as I was leaving. I definitely felt at ease leaving him with her! Highly recommend!”

“Loved having Hunter available to watch Penny during the day. The fenced yard really helped her her energy out! Great communication and photos during the day. I knew she was well taken care of. Will definitely use Hunter again!”

About: Hailing from an animal loving family, I've taken care of both dogs and cats since I was a very young child. I've worked with small and large, young and old, male and female, loud ones, quiet ones lol, playful, not so playful haha. I have one current furchild and best child, Sunny, who is very friendly and outgoing with all walks of life. I'm a freelance photographer with a flexible schedule. During the summer I work some local farmers markets but most of the time I am home hanging with Sunny, going on an adventure with him, or doing a photo shoot either in my home studio or on location in the area. Bonus, I can take a professional photo of your baby in my home studio! I have a huge fenced in backyard perfect for zoomies and playing and my neighborhood, in general, is extremely dog friendly with plenty of walking trails. With your consent, I'm also happy to take your pup to the beach, for a pup cup, to the dog park, or any other suitable adventure. I have two large crates if needed and treats, toys, and balls galore.
“Murphy came home exhausted after a full day of playing in the snowy backyard with Andrea’s dogs and the others she was watching for the day. He was a stinky, sleepy, happy pup! She was flexible and easy going, considering our change in pickup/dropoff times due to the snow and traffic. I will definitely use her again.”

About: Having been around and owned different animals all my life, I have years of experience with dog routines, feeding schedules, training habits and cuddles. I enjoy playing fetch and walking my pup daily and would love to include yours! I'm a stay at home mom so I'm around all the time for all your pets needs. I am available 7 days a week. I have a fenced in yard with a very friendly Lab and daughter that will keep your pup company. Going for walks or runs in the mornings with plenty of fetch in the backyard is a good day here.

About: I have over 16+ years of pet sitting experience. Ever since I was in middle school, I have been providing pet care services to neighbors, coworkers, etc. In fact, I was the designated pet sitter of my current work place where I would stay over at their homes while they were out of town. In addition, I have grown up with rescue dogs, and those who have behavioral issues. I am skilled with providing medicine to dogs as well. I do not have experience training puppies. I work from home fully with very little travel which would be set ahead of time not to disrupt the care of the dog, and can be flexible in terms of timings. Usually, I meet with the owner and dog beforehand. This ensures trust as I can get a way of the home, the dog can meet me, and show first hand any specific instructions.
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I currently am a part time student, I got out the navy a year ago. So I am taking time to myself after all those years in the service and so I have a very flexible schedule. I will follow all rules or accommodations for the pets especially in there home. I will always provide a safe experience and keep the dogs a number one priority
