“This was the first time our pup had stayed away from us and I was nervos but Maria kept me updated and sent multiple pictures throughout the day. She took great care of him and we will be using her from this point forward! :)”
“We absolutely love and appreciate Ercillia!!! We have 3 senior dogs that love a "quiet environment" and having someone with them when we go on vacation is priceless knowing we can relax and not stress we don't worry when they are with Ercillia she is so good to them highly recommend her!!!”
“She is awesome! When our trip got extended by delayed planes home, she was more than accommodating with us. We had near daily photo updates of our doggy, and she was very communicative and informative and flexible. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a doggy babysitter!”
“Jackie was so amazing!! She sent so many photos of our pups and even brushed them, gave them a bath and sent them home with some treats and bandanas. She was very communicative and flexible when our travel plans changed. We will 100% be booking with her again!!”
“Haley runs her business from her very nice home so your pup will be in a normal and comfortable home environment compared to a run of the mill boarding facility. Haley is very nice and trustworthy. Even better, communicating with Haley is so easy. As in just shoot her a text message easy. I've had pet sitters who make you jump through hoops to just hear how your dog is doing. Haley VOLUNTARILY sent me texts, pictures, and videos of what my pup was doing at her house while we were out of town. I can't stress how much the pictures comforted us seeing that Aida was having a great time. Haley truly cares about your pets. Coordinating drop off, pick up times, etc was just as easy. We were running late, and she was still very accommodating. The best experience ever!”
“Jayda was amazing with my dog and kept me updated daily with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell my pup was well cared for and happy. Highly recommend!”
“Ludris was a wonderful sitter for my large breed dog, Jill. She kept me updated with pictures and provided clear communication throughout my dog's stay. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Kailey and her family were amazing with our fur baby girl, Korra! She had such an amazing time with them and got a gift from Santa paw♥️ (such a beautiful idea!). We left for a vacation outside of the country and felt so confident that Korra was in great hands - Korra participated in bedtime routines, was combed by the kids, played a lot of tag and went for neighborhood walks when the weather permitted it! I also got daily updates, which was just so perfect! Definitely Kailey will be my to go person for Korra. 🤗 Kailey was also so flexible and helpful! Thank you thank you thank you!! 💃🏽”
“Alex and his family were so kind to watch our hound dog Olive. They sent regular updates and took care of her like she was a part of the family. I felt comfortable knowing that she was being well taken care of when going out of town!”
“Our dog was so well cared for and loved, we did not have any worries while we were away. We received daily photos and updates of our pup being snuggled and playing. The large yard was securely fenced and enclosed and it offered a great place to run and chase squirrels. The entire family was responsible and conscientious about pet care. We will definitely return and would recommend highly.”
“Taylor did a great job with our Old English Bully. Our Luna is a high energy unique Bully and Taylor was able to keep up! Taylor has great communication and she is mindful about the dogs needs and behaviors. Luna had a great time and we were able to relax and enjoy our time away.”
“Evelin was amazing with our pup. She provided us with photos through out the week, reassuring us that our Pup was behaving and enjoying herself. Plus Evelin was very accommodating and loving to our dog (Alice). Thanks again Evelin for welcoming Alice and taking great care of her.”
“I appreciated Andrea’s rates and communication. The boys appeared to have a great time and got along with their pets. She was also able to accommodate an extension when travel plans changed.”
“This was my first time using a sitter for my dog and i was very impressed with everything start to finish. After meeting Lindy i felt fully at ease leaving my dog here while i was out of town. There was great communication throughout the stay and i could yell at pickup my dog had so much fun and enjoyed playing with her dogs. Would 100% use again and recommend!”
“We had such a great experience with Zule! Communication was excellent and professional from start to finish, and we loved receiving daily photo updates of our pup clearly having the best time. He was so well cared for, got plenty of exercise and social interaction, and made himself completely at home with her family and the other dogs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such a loving, attentive environment. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Kristin took excellent care of my fur baby! She has a huge fenced yard that my dog loved. She was extremely nice and her home is clean. I will definitely use her again.”

“Even my super shy cat, who runs from his own shadow, came out to befriend Jasmine during visits. She’s awesome. Tell your momma, the neighbor, the mailman to all use her for their pet needs as well.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Alexa. She took amazing care of our Bruno and gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while we were away. She was reliable, caring, and attentive, and we could tell our dog was comfortable and well cared for. We’re so grateful for the great care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”
“Kailey was fantastic watching my cat! He’s a shy boy, but he finally came around on the last day of the booking LOL which is still better than his usual. I 100% recommend her and will definitely be reaching out for her services again!”
“Veronica is the best cat sitter that I could’ve hoped for! My cat, Sombra, is normally very shy around strangers when I’m away, so I was amazed to see how quickly she warmed up to Veronica. She actually came out of hiding to sit on Veronica’s lap, which says everything about how comfortable and loved she felt. Veronica truly went above and beyond, doing even more for Sombra than I had requested. She also sent wonderful updates with plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter, and I would gladly book Veronica again. Highly recommend!”
“Bria was AMAZING!! We needed a super last minute sitter for our cat and tortoise & she did not hesitate to help. She updated me throughout her time watching them and sent the cutest pictures. I’m a ball of anxiety when it comes to my pets and she was so understanding & reassuring. She took great care of our pets while we were away and we look forward to using her again in the near future. Thank you, Bria!! You are the best!! 💗💗💗💗”
“Julia did a great job and was very thorough in providing the update. I really appreciated her checking in on Jas. The fact that he came out to greet her, shows he really likes her! Thanks Julia!”
“Alexandra did an amazing job taking care of Jasper while I was away. She always kept me updated and sent pictures. I would happily choose her services again when I travel in the future.”
“Elise was amazing! She took wonderful care of both my kitties. She is very attentive, caring, kind and spent lots of time interacting and playing with my cats while I was away. I would totally recommend her for others. I am already looking forward to her watching my babies on my next trip. Can’t recommend enough!”
“I'm always happy to have Alexis watch my babies. They are all very comfortable with her, even my literal scaredy cat! Alexis notices the small changes in their daily behavior, and handled giving one of my cats multiple medications during my trip. I never worry about my boys when Alexis is with them!”
About: Trusted Pet Care with 20+ Years of Experience. I’ve had dogs my whole life. I currently have 105 pound Rhodesian Ridgeback and a chocolate lab. I grew up with Shih Tzu’s and Labs able to take care of all. Right now I’m currently off of work looking to mainly walk dogs maybe in the evening or in the morning, especially on the weekends, weekdays are OK too Right now I do all the maintenance for my dogs feeding walking letting them out. I also care for my sister’s two dogs. She lives down the road. I feed them and walk them as well.
“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Jordan. She means it when she says she will care for your pets like they are her own, and she proved that to us in a way I won't forget. Jordan had checked in on our dog a couple of times the first day and again the following morning. On her last scheduled visit, she walked into the house to find that he had destroyed the kennel we were keeping him in and completely shredded a tarp. Instead of simply completing her check-in and leaving, Jordan immediately became concerned that he may have swallowed some of the tarp and could potentially have a blockage. I was still hours away from home, and Jordan insisted on staying with him until I could get back because she didn't feel comfortable leaving him alone. After talking it through, we decided the safest thing was to have her take him to a pet urgent care rather than wait for me to get home. Jordan did not hesitate for even a second. She took him to the vet, stayed with him, kept me updated, and made sure he was safe until I could get there. What was supposed to be a simple check-in turned into an incredibly stressful situation, and Jordan went so far above and beyond anything I could have expected from her. When someone is caring for your pet, you're trusting them with a member of your family, and Jordan treated our dog exactly that way. I will forever be grateful that she was the person looking after him that day. She truly means it when she says she cares for your pets like she does her own. I could not recommend Jordan more. ❤️🐾”
“Jesse was great and took the best care of our cats. She of course fed them and cleaned the litter boxes but she also made sure to sit, play, and chat to the kitties as well. They barely missed me when I got home so I know they had great company. Thank you Jesse!”
About: I’ve had cats all my life . Even if i have any dogs in my possession, i do a great job at keeping all animals separated . Cats will be inside home . Most the times the dogs i take care of are in the dog building conditioned for them unless i have a dog with high anxiety booked. My son loves cats and will help me keep any kitten or pup entertained!
“Natalie was fantastic!! She sent us videos, pictures and gave us very detailed updates. This is the longest we've ever left our four cats and we were able to really have a good time and not worry. We will absolutely use her again and recommend her to all of our friends. I immediately liked her when I met her, you won't be disappointed by her! Thanks for being so awesome Natalie ?.”
“Haley was amazing with our cat Leo while we took a trip out of the country. She sent numerous pictures and updates throughout the duration of his stay. Highly recommended and will be booking with her again!”

“Elise was the perfect sitter for my high energy Malinois! Her dog and mine got along great and even got to go to the dog park together. She was very accommodating to my last minute request and early drop off/late pickup (0600-1700). Even after my dog had an accident due to starting her heat cycle (which Elise notified me of) she was still very friendly and helpful with updates and Barleys well being. At the end of the day my dog was exhausted by the time I picked her up and ready to sleep! I highly recommend Elise and would definitely trust her again!”
“This was my dog’s first time staying with anyone other than family that is around him oftern! He had a great time! Maria was great at communicating and made sure i was updated regularly! I had a little separation anxiety but the open communication was definitely helpful and helped ease my anxiety. I would recommend Maria, she cared for my fur baby like one of her own. He had a great time and would recommend her as a sitter!”
“We love using Haley for our pup's day care! Our dog has the BEST time with her, her dogs, and some of the other dogs she watches. It's great socialization and we feel confident knowing Haley takes such good care of her! Highly, highly recommend.”
About: I have cared for all sorts of animals from dogs to birds to lizards to bunnies. I love all of them the same! I have many neighbors and family/friends that trust me to take care of and love their babies. Including walks, drop in with lots of attention each time, feedings, in-home stays, tank/litter cleaning. I honestly just love all animals so much and this is a great way for me to love more babies! I’m new to rover but not new to the pet care life! I am currently on summer break from school so my schedule has opened up a lot. I am available most of the day every day of the week! When I care for someone else’s pet, I care for them like my own. I truly will love them at first sight. No matter how rambunctious or timid they may be. I give lots of attention and have to pry myself away when I’m leaving a drop in care. For in-home, I don’t have to leave so I get to give nonstop love! I always send my clients daily pictures to ease their minds and help them enjoy whatever activity or trip they may be on to need my help in the first place. They will be well cared and well loved!
“We just used Julia for our first time and she did not disappoint! She was very kind to our pup and gave a nice big report on him at the end of the visit. Julia is very sweet and has a big heart for animals. I appreciate her honesty and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Nicole was awesome! I needed doggie day care last minute,and she was available, it was such a wonderful experience! She was so flexible and my puppy loved her. He didn’t wanna leave! I will most definitely be using her again! She kept me up to date with pictures and everything I can’t thank you enough!!”
About: Hi, I’m Celina, an animal lover with years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I recently relocated from Alaska to North Carolina and am excited to provide top-quality care for pets in my new community. My passion for animals drives me to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Whether you need a regular pet sitter or someone for a special occasion, I’m here to help! I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. I’ve worked with dogs who have anxiety and understand how to make them feel more at ease, whether it’s through a calming environment, routine, or extra attention. I’m also skilled at administering medication to both cats and dogs, so you can trust that your pet’s health is in good hands. I offer boarding, drop-in visits, house sitting and doggy daycare. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel secure. Additionally, I can assist with light housework, such as cleaning up after pets and watering plants. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I genuinely love taking care of pets and will treat your furry family members as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs medication, special attention, or just someone to be there while you're away, I’m here to help. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet! As a stay-at-home mom, pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily life. I take my daughter on daily walks, so having a friendly dog to accompany us is always a joy—if your dog is comfortable and safe around children. If not, no worries! I can leave my daughter with a trusted person while I give your pet my full attention. I have my own car, so transportation to your location is never an issue. Your pet will receive all the love, care, and attention they need, no matter what! When caring for pets in your home, I provide drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting, ensuring your pet is safe, comfortable, and well-cared for in their familiar environment. During my visits, I’ll feed, water, and play with your pet, as well as clean up after them. I take special care to ensure your pet’s safety by following your guidelines and routines, keeping doors securely closed, and making sure they’re always supervised. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, companionship, or medication, I ensure they’re safe and happy until you return. Safety is my top priority when walking dogs. I ensure that dogs are always leashed and carefully monitored during walks. If your dog enjoys walks and is safe around children, I can bring them along on my daily walks with my daughter. For dogs that require more individualized attention, I provide solo walks in quiet, pet-friendly areas to keep them safe. While house sitting, I make sure your pet stays safe and secure in your home, following their routine to minimize any stress. I also keep your home secure, clean up after your pet, and take care of light tasks like watering plants. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. My goal is to provide a loving, safe, and secure environment for your pets, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: When I was 3 we had cats in the house and a dog. As I got older we had more cats and dogs. I have always been around them. I currently have 2 labs & a beagle. I have experience with elderly dog care, puppy, administering medication & monitoring input and output. I do know how to clip dog nails & clean their ears as well as bathe them. I am a full time mom and I stay home with our 3 children. My children love to be outside so we spend a lot of time outside playing with our dogs. We have a fenced backyard - about .4 acres fenced in. We live in a development and go on walks with our dogs. We have built in dog crates in our entertainment center where dogs could sleep if needed. We also have a dog fence we could make a play area for.
About: Ever since I was a baby all I can remember is having pets and caring for them. Walking them, feeding them, letting them outside and giving them love. I have 2 fur babies of my own who are beyond spoiled. I have trained my current 2 dogs and our family dog back home in Michigan, with potty training and basic commands. I’ve cared for dogs who need medications including my own pup who gets ear infections. I have a fenced in privacy fence backyard with a good amount of running room. I am currently not working so I’m a stay at home mom. I’m available all days of the week all hours and most holidays. This gives me and your fury friend plenty of time to play and be outdoors, or for me to spend extra time with them in your home. I have a fenced in back and front yard and two fur pups of my own. This can give your fur baby playmates as well as mine. I can easily accommodate to crates, special diets, medications and almost anything your fur friend needs. I have 2 totes of toys, and a 5 gallon water jug down at all times.
“We are so grateful to Evelin for taking care of our sweet Bichon, Lily, while we attended a family funeral. It was such a comfort to know that Lily was in loving, capable hands during such a difficult time. Evelin went above and beyond to make sure Lily was happy and comfortable, sending us updates that gave us peace of mind. Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. Thank you, Evelin, for being there for us and for treating Lily like one of your own. We couldn’t have asked for better care.”
“Sarah was terrific! She sent pics and updates. Very gracious when I was late few times. I’m visiting NC from New England and took me longer than expected to get back. I would definitely recommend her and use her services when I’m back here!”
About: I have been a dog owner almost my entire life. I currently have four dogs of my own. I Chihuahua, two Chorkies and a Dachshund. I’m very caring, loving and responsible pet owner and I would enjoy opening my home to help take care of others for overnight stays or day visits. My dogs enjoyed going outside every few hours to get fresh air and sunshine, weather permitting. They enjoy playing with lots of toys and take naps in the puppy room Our home is a quiet environment with relaxing canine lullabies playing most of the day. My dogs enjoyed being around other dogs and are very friendly. I would enjoy getting to know you and your Pet. I would provide a welcoming and fun environment during their stay.
“Ernesto was amazing. We have a puppy and an older dog so it was hard to choose someone to trust them with for the day. After a meet and greet we know that Ernesto would be perfect. I will definitely be using his professional services with training our puppy. Thank you Ernesto!!!”
“Jasper was suffering from anxiety after using a dog walker and I decided Doggy daycare would be a better choice. He needed daily activity while I was at work and Katie has given that. Her children love being around dogs and play with Jasper all day. He is tired out by the time I pick him up, perfect because I am too after a long day. I rebound with him over the weekend and all is well. Now when I pickup my car keys he is at the door thinking we are going to Katies every time, hilarious. Katie is great and I will continue using her home to keep my dog safe and stimulated all day. Thanks Katie”
About: I have grown up with the love of pets from dogs, birds, cats ect! I love animals and would always be a reliable choice.

About: I have been in the animal care trade for over 20 years and been pet sitting since I was 14 years old. Working in shelters, Vet Clinics, and pet sitting has given me the opportunity to take care of a wide variety of animals. Most notably, I have cared for aging pets, farm animals, and disabled pets and administered multiple types of medication. My goal is to give the best care to every animal I meet. I am a stay at home mother right now. So I am free 90% of the time. Other then when I am in car line I am free to take care of your animal. I do not stay overnight due to being a mom. However when you book me for an overnight stay I will stop by your home at least 3 times a day. Stopping by very early in the morning, mid-day, and later at night. I try to stay at least an hour each time. I will treat your animal as if there are one of my own. I will try to make it a stress free time for you pet. So that when you get home you will have the happiest and healthiest pet. I can access Fort Liberty. Can give references upon request.
About: Since I was a child I've taken care of dogs, my whole family loves animals and know how to treat dogs and how they behave. I'm currently working part time, and usually get off work at 2pm, after that I'm free. I do have a social life and occasionally will be out and about but I can always make time for your dogs! I have a 3 acre fenced yard, cages for my dogs, leashes, harnesses, and medicine.I NEVER hit animals and always treat them with the respect they deserve.
About: With over three years of professional experience working at NoDa Bark & Board, Lucky Pup, and Camp Bow Wow, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. My responsibilities included supervising group play, administering medications when needed, feeding, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and ensuring every dog stayed safe and comfortable throughout the day. I’m also Dog and Cat CPR certified, so your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to build trust while providing plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. As of right now, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week. I’m currently between jobs while waiting to begin graduate school in the spring, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Toward the end of August, I’ll begin substitute teaching, but my availability will still remain flexible outside of school hours. Whether your pet needs daytime visits, overnight care, or weekend attention, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. Having worked professionally in multiple doggy daycare facilities, I’m experienced in reading canine body language, preventing conflicts, and responding calmly in stressful situations. As a Dog and Cat CPR certified caregiver, I’m prepared to handle emergencies if they ever arise. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love while keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I've had pets my whole life with the majority of them being rescues. I currently have three huskies and a doberman, as well as a leopard gecko. I have also in the past had chickens and fish that I greatly miss caring for. So whether the house or the farm I'm ready for your babies! I'm currently focusing all of my time on pet sitting so I can care for your babies at any time and for however long I am needed. I am based out of Lillington and am able to travel to the surrounding areas where I can care for your pets in your home, whether that be giving medication, feeding, playing or continuing any training that you have started.
About: Hi! My name is Fernanda, and I provide drop-in visits and dog walking in the Lillington area. I've always had a deep love for animals — I'm a dog mom to three myself: Cobain, Moonie, and Jalapeno, a senior dog who showed up at our house last year and never left. Caring for three dogs with very different ages and personalities has taught me to read each dog individually rather than treat care as one-size-fits-all. I understand your pets are members of your family, and my goal is to give them that same love, attention, and safety while you're away. I'm home most of the day, so a visit from me isn't rushed or squeezed in — your dog gets real attention, not just a quick in-and-out. As a dedicated pet parent to my own three dogs, my daily life is entirely built around a structured animal care routine. Because of this, my schedule is highly predictable and reliable. I manage my time carefully to ensure that your pets receive punctual feeding, on-time medication, and consistent potty breaks without disruption. Whether you need early morning check-ins or late evening drop-ins, I am organized, timely, and fully committed to keeping your pet’s normal routine exactly on track. Safety is my absolute highest priority. Managing a diverse three-dog pack with completely different sizes, breeds, and personalities—including a delicate senior dog—means I am hyper-aware of animal body language, stress triggers, and environmental safety. I strictly follow all entry/exit protocols to prevent escape artists from slipping out the door. I am patient, gentle, and highly experienced in tracking slow movements, administering oral medications, and recognizing when a pet needs quiet rest.

Early mornings to late nights, both in your or my home. I do have 1 dogs at my home & a cat. I have 1 dog who is very friendly, Draco is a 6 year old Frenchie.

We also have a dog fence we could make a play area for.
About: Available all holidays. I work with people and their pets consistently. I have a background in the medical and paralegal field . We can accommodate any pup , any situation! I have had my own dog kennel for years . I’m very energetic & love animals & so does my son & family members who do this with me . I take them on walks and keep them entertained . Since i have experience whelping and with mommy dogs , i can take on any challenge . I can administer medication responsibly. Not all dogs get along with other dogs , i understand that . I have a nice insulated building with heat and ac for the dogs who really prefer their own space . It’s very nice & comfortable in there. But i do offer space in my home as well for free roam or the very nice puppy cave - lots of land !&& a great areas to play in - no roads near by . Plus a 6 ft tall fence. They gets lots of play time since I’m generally home. I Keep toys and supplies & cute fenced in areas for smaller pups as well to separate from big pups . Doggies are spoiled here, every pup gets one on one time . Plenty of space to run && play outside & in the very spacious open floor home . From big to little , they are welcome here . Experience with high anxiety pets and older dogs. Conditioned “puppy cave” in home as well for pups who like their own space but don’t want to be in the building . Prices can be discussed for multiples & long stays or in general if it is an emergency & unexpected , I’ll work with you . We put our time & care & money into what we do . This is not the only place that i promote my pet sitting business, but Rover is awesome ! Lots of experience & many references for months/weeks long stays . Can also offer grooming (special comfortable tub ) & training when needed . Our days are literally centered around the puppies we keep . They are our top priority- you will love the updates . I have my own animals that i have to take out and keep entertained myself . So taking care of dogs is part of my daily routine. Plus I’m home most the time so the dogs are a main focus. Gives me a lot of bonding time with my son as well . We really enjoy playing and spending time with them. Acres of land - not close to any roads what so ever . Perfect yard . Can free roam with supervision on the acres or play in the 6ft tall fence. Nice dog building with great heating And air . But can also have them In the house . Welcome to check both spaces out . Same exact set up. They will be let out often. And can keep dogs separated when they do not get along with other animals- i do not believe in putting multiple dogs in a playroom loose not knowing their personalities well yet - very small groups with regulars is completely ok but most pups need proper introductions before throwing them in a space with other unknown pets & an unknown new human watching- it can be very unpredictable even if your pup is super social . I keep supplies such as dog shampoo , dog treats, toys and other things that may be needed. They get lots of love and cuddles here. 6ft tall fence for the big babies . Space to run inside the home if weather is ugly.
“Annmarie is wonderful with our pup! She is just shy of a year old and is hesitant when meeting others on walks and Annmarie is great at putting her at ease. Annmarie is prompt and professional- providing great notes and pics of her time with our pup!!”
About: I've been pet sitting for some family friends for the last 5 years and have watched dogs of various breeds for 4 different families. Watching both dogs and just recently in the last year cats. So far I've watched up to 3 dogs at a time. I'm happy to take them out for walks, make sure that they go to the bathroom, that they've eaten, medicine taken, and their water bowls are always filled. I've watched both senior dogs and young dogs. If your sweet fur child has any need any specific needs that need to be followed just let me know and I'll make sure it's done! I'll also make sure to give you updates on anything that happens! Like when I get to your place, when I'm about to leave, if your furry friend gets sick, has an accident, or just general update how well they're doing. I'm also working to get a pet cpr certification. I do ask that before I watch your furry buddy that I come over for a short visit before the scheduled date to meet your furry friend, so you and your furry friend can both trust me, and we can discuss any specific details and get a key to your house if needed. I'm a single game developer and artist who works from home. So I've got a good amount of free time throughout the day, where I can stop working and drive over to help out if your in need of any. If your someone that works an early morning shift and you need someone at your house by 6 to 7 AM at the latest to let your dogs go to the bathroom, make sure they're fed, medicine taken, or take them out for a short walk. I can be there. I can promise you that I'm a rule follower. If you tell me not to do something I won't do it. If I am unsure of something I can promise you that I'll send you a text or give you a call to get your input on whatever it is that I'm unsure of. I'll also make sure to give updates, and let you know when I've arrived and when I'm leaving. I'll also make sure to let you know if any accidents happen, and clean up any mess that may happen!

“I cannot say enough about Haley! I was weary having a stranger come to my home to walk my dog. She made me feel at ease at our initial meeting and my dog loved her. She was very patient with her-puppy stage, leash pulling, and jumping. She gave tips on some behaviors and it was helpful. I will continue to use Haley's services!”

“This was the first time our pup had stayed away from us and I was nervos but Maria kept me updated and sent multiple pictures throughout the day. She took great care of him and we will be using her from this point forward! :)”
“She is awesome! When our trip got extended by delayed planes home, she was more than accommodating with us. We had near daily photo updates of our doggy, and she was very communicative and informative and flexible. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a doggy babysitter!”
“Jackie was so amazing!! She sent so many photos of our pups and even brushed them, gave them a bath and sent them home with some treats and bandanas. She was very communicative and flexible when our travel plans changed. We will 100% be booking with her again!!”
“Haley runs her business from her very nice home so your pup will be in a normal and comfortable home environment compared to a run of the mill boarding facility. Haley is very nice and trustworthy. Even better, communicating with Haley is so easy. As in just shoot her a text message easy. I've had pet sitters who make you jump through hoops to just hear how your dog is doing. Haley VOLUNTARILY sent me texts, pictures, and videos of what my pup was doing at her house while we were out of town. I can't stress how much the pictures comforted us seeing that Aida was having a great time. Haley truly cares about your pets. Coordinating drop off, pick up times, etc was just as easy. We were running late, and she was still very accommodating. The best experience ever!”
“Jayda was amazing with my dog and kept me updated daily with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell my pup was well cared for and happy. Highly recommend!”
“Kailey and her family were amazing with our fur baby girl, Korra! She had such an amazing time with them and got a gift from Santa paw♥️ (such a beautiful idea!). We left for a vacation outside of the country and felt so confident that Korra was in great hands - Korra participated in bedtime routines, was combed by the kids, played a lot of tag and went for neighborhood walks when the weather permitted it! I also got daily updates, which was just so perfect! Definitely Kailey will be my to go person for Korra. 🤗 Kailey was also so flexible and helpful! Thank you thank you thank you!! 💃🏽”
“Alex and his family were so kind to watch our hound dog Olive. They sent regular updates and took care of her like she was a part of the family. I felt comfortable knowing that she was being well taken care of when going out of town!”
“Our dog was so well cared for and loved, we did not have any worries while we were away. We received daily photos and updates of our pup being snuggled and playing. The large yard was securely fenced and enclosed and it offered a great place to run and chase squirrels. The entire family was responsible and conscientious about pet care. We will definitely return and would recommend highly.”
“Taylor did a great job with our Old English Bully. Our Luna is a high energy unique Bully and Taylor was able to keep up! Taylor has great communication and she is mindful about the dogs needs and behaviors. Luna had a great time and we were able to relax and enjoy our time away.”
“This was my first time using a sitter for my dog and i was very impressed with everything start to finish. After meeting Lindy i felt fully at ease leaving my dog here while i was out of town. There was great communication throughout the stay and i could yell at pickup my dog had so much fun and enjoyed playing with her dogs. Would 100% use again and recommend!”
“We had such a great experience with Zule! Communication was excellent and professional from start to finish, and we loved receiving daily photo updates of our pup clearly having the best time. He was so well cared for, got plenty of exercise and social interaction, and made himself completely at home with her family and the other dogs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such a loving, attentive environment. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Kristin took excellent care of my fur baby! She has a huge fenced yard that my dog loved. She was extremely nice and her home is clean. I will definitely use her again.”

“I couldn't be happier with the care my boys received! Casey kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My boys came home happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Casey to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely book with her again!”
“My dog had a fantastic stay with Christina. She was very accommodating with our drop off and pick up times. Her beautiful house and calm surroundings was a perfect match. Upon our arrival, Oreo was happy and settled in quickly. ”
“Wow, what a great experience! Both Cassandra and her husband are great with dogs, their kids are great with dogs, and their dogs are great with dogs! I have a two-year-old lab who is still very much a puppy, and this wonderful family was able to handle her beautifully. They made her part of the family in every way. I'm so pleased.”
“We had an initial meet n greet the week before and they seemed to click with the house! They were kind of chill when I picked them up which was unusual but really cool. I was sent pics of them lounging on the couch, so cute. Thanks to Kristen, Paula, Bentley the moyan and to the cute teeny bopper (sorry I forgot your name hon but I'm old now so please forgive.) I feel like my pups had their best first experience with some lovely pet sitters. Best regards, Diane”
“Annie was the perfect person to watch our puppy! She sent us daily photos and videos of how Sadie was doing and what they were up to, she took Sadie out for walks every day and out to a brewery to enjoy a day outside, and gave her lots of cuddles and attention. I think she loved our puppy just as if she were her own, and I cannot wait to let Sadie stay with her again! I will be a forever repeat customer with Annie and cannot imagine a better person for watching our precious pup. Thank you times a million!”
