“Ludris is a very kind lady who is an excellent pet sitter. When I got out of my car with our dog, Millie, she ran to Ludris' door, then ran inside and was so happy to return home for a short stay. I would highly recommend Ludris to those looking for a good pet sitter. She is amazing.”

I came on rover needing a dog sitter very last minute same day I planed on going out of town and it was honestly the best choice I could’ve made very quick replies and very frequent updates and pictures of how good your fur babies are doing THANK U AGAIN MARIA!!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Layla! Jacquelyn took such amazing care of her, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Layla was in such good hands. Layla managed to get dirty and wet more than once 😂, and Jacquelyn was so patient and kind every time, helping get her cleaned up and making sure she was comfortable. Layla also had awesome playmates to run around with and absolutely LOVED the backyard and all the space to play! We are so grateful for how well she took care of our girl. We would absolutely trust her with Layla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Layla!”

About: I have grown up with all different kinds of pets. Along with watching friends pets, I have worked for companies such as United Paws and Wag. I can do early mornings and evenings, I am in the military so that takes up my time from 9-1700. I do have Saturdays and Sundays off. I will care for the pets as if they are my own. Lots of love and playing and treats if permitted. Pet deserve full attention and that is what they will get.

She was very professional in communications as well. We will look forward to hiring her for future trips.”

About: Give your dog or pup a comfortable, fun experience just like they have at home. If you wanna get away and need a place for your dogs to stay then book with me! You will be stress free with your pet in my care. Allow me to transport, sit with, feed, and walk your pet just as you would ensuring your pet is well taken care of and comfortable. I am available weekdays from early morning until 12:30 in the afternoon and usually free on the weekends and willing to board your pet if need be. I have dog (Cocker Spaniel) that I interact with daily and would love to interact with yours too. Contact me with any questions via text or call for a quick reply. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. I have a loving and energetic Standard Poodle named Shiloh who keeps me on my toes, as well as a 9-month-old gray tabby named Palmer cat who loves exploring and cuddling. Caring for them has built a strong routine of walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I’m currently working part-time while attending graduate school full-time. I’m available for boarding on weekends (Friday–Sunday) and on Tuesdays, when I have online classes and am usually settled in at home. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment building where your pup is sure to make new friends. My home has an open floor plan with plenty of space for pets to roam comfortably while still being supervised. We are also right across the street from a large grassy area, which is perfect for walks, bathroom breaks, and getting some fresh air. There are also courtyards nearby that are great for short breaks or downtime. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and body language, follow the owner’s instructions closely, and make sure every pet feels secure and cared for while they are with me.
“I wouldn’t definitely use Emily again. She is thorough, caring, and willing to work with us on what our cats needed. She goes above and beyond to ensure everything, even the littlest details are taken care of.”
“Alicia, was a very conscientious pet and house sitter. I had her stay at my home with my three cats and she was in constant communication, providing me with updates and picture. She also left the house as clean as it was when she arrived. I would highly recommend Alicia and I will definitely have her watch my pets again.”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: My wife and I have always through the years had some variety of dogs and cats, male and female. Small and not so small 😊At times even birds, rabbits and Guinea pigs. We have taken care of my our grand dogs and grand kitties. We have chosen not to have our own animals friends in this season of our life because of the freedom it gives us to visit our children , grandchildren and great grandchildren we have in different states now. But feel we would enjoy helping others with their friends in our retirement. Our yard has a white picket fence and is a decent size for someone to run around in, but it is not completely fenced in. We are retired. We do not have any daily obligations anywhere. We go to church and we visit our children out of state on some of the holidays. Of course we would keep a close eye on them and see that they have water and ther food and a place to rest and as many potty breaks as needed. Also feel like they should be able to get the exercise they need with fresh air outside. Between a porch and deck that they can enjoy with us. Walking with a lease around the yard and their lease attached to an outside chain for their individual walking/running 😊
“Nina is such a blessing. When we leave our fur babies with her, we don't have to worry about them at all. Thank you so much Nina, they are looking forward to staying with you again soon.”
About: I have loved animals all my life and have had pets in the home since I was born. I first started babysitting others pets while their owners were on Leave or TDY starting in the 3rd grade. I have a very large fenced in back yard with plenty of grass for your pet to run and play. While your pet is in my care, they will be given plenty of potty breaks, exercise and play time. I will send you pictures and brief updates throughout their stay to put your mind at ease. I have extensive experience dealing with senior pets who need medications and who need special care due to specific medical ailments. Your pet will always be treated as my family. They will get hugs and kisses, too! Please don't let my address in Wade deter you...I am only 8 miles from Ramsey Street!! For safety reasons, we cannot take care of Pitt Bulls or any pet that is aggressive. If it is the first time caring for your pet, I will ask to do a Meet and Greet so we can all meet one another to ensure our pets will all get along. I work remotely from home so your pet will rarely be left alone. I have two dogs of my own, so your pet will have plenty of company to play with. Since I do work from home, I am able to provide plenty of potty breaks and time to go outside in the yard to run and play. I have a very large fenced in yard that is all grass and very clean providing your pet plenty of room to run and play or just time to walk around the yard and explore. I will never leave your pet outside alone. Either my husband or I will be with them the entire time. While inside the house, they will have full access to clean water, plenty of toys and soft dog beds, all in our very clean home. If I am dropping in on your pet in your home, you can rest assured that I will be on time for the visit, take them to potty, and give them plenty of love. I will be very respectful of your home and only go in the areas needed for me to do the visit. For safety reason, I will not be able to watch Pitt Bulls or pets that are aggressive in any way. Please let me know if your dog can jump or climb fences, or is an escape artist.

I work from home so I am able to have a flexible schedule and can work with whatever schedule your pet needs to make sure they are comfortable and well taken care of. Dedicated pet sitter prioritizing safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. Whether in your home or mine, I tailor care to suit each pet's needs.

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.

I always treat every animal like they are my own no matter who’s pet is, my last 2 jobs were a dog bather and I have loved every second of it and I can’t wait to work with animals again. I am currently able for full time, I am availability at all times and so I have a very flexible schedule. I am always here when needed.

“My dog had a great time with with Jacquely and her family. I really appreciated her flexibility and how well she and her family took care of my dog. Would highly recommend her services.”
About: We're conveniently located just off of hwy 401 and near I-95 and I-40. I've always had family pets since I was the age of 2. I've cared for all ages of dogs and cats. I've been a midwife to many previous cats, bottle fed, watched live births of pups, and administered oral medications. I am always available for play time and snuggle time. I currently work part-time and am only away for 6 hours during the day. During this time my husband or my teen are usually home for part of that time. It's perfect because our pets aren't left all alone for very long. I have 2 dogs, one is playful and one is very relaxed. They have been around other dogs a number of times and loves playing at the dog park. They are friendly. At night our dogs are able to go upstairs and sleep in our room. During your pups stay, they are welcome to sleep anywhere in the house. We have a spare room downstairs that I'm happy to stay in if they need that (my dogs take up our whole bed upstairs). If your pup is crate trained and prefers their crate, I suggest you bring it for their stay so they can feel more at home.
“They were amazing! I was nervous to leave my pups but they were so tuckered out when they got home and I know they took great care of them while staying there! Will definitely use them again when I need a sitter!”
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.
“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!”
“Skyler took good care of our little girl. She was more than accommodating. She was not even fazed at our drop off time of 5:30 am! We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you so much Skyler.”
“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.”

About: Hi! I’m Gabriel, a veteran, teacher, and lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience caring for dogs. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I live in an apartment but only board one dog at a time, so your pet gets plenty of individual attention. I’m very active and enjoy long walks, and there’s a dog park nearby where I can take your dog to run and play. As a teacher in a year-round district, I also have extended breaks when I’m available for full-time pet care, which works well for longer trips or vacations. I look forward to giving your pet great care and giving you peace of mind. I’m available to board most weekends and especially during my school breaks since I work on a year-round schedule. On workdays I’m off by 3:00 PM, which allows me to stop by homes in the afternoon and evening to care for pets. My Home: I have one dog named Libby who can keep your pup company.

I did have a dog with 3 legs, so if you have any disabled or quirks with your pets- I’m happy to accommodate. I’m available all weekend to play with your pet. If they’re energetic and like to run, let me know and we can go for a jog together. I have a large backyard with a fence that’s perfect for zoomies. I also have a dog that’s super friendly and loves to play with other pets.

About: I've been caring for all types of animals since i was 12 years old. I've trained dogs such as German Shepherds and Pitbulls, and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I currently have the pleasure of loving 2 of my own special needs cats and a large tarantula. As well as this, my previous employment was a small pet care business in Georgia providing drop in visits for feeding, playtime and potty breaks, overnight sitting, walks, extended stays and taking care of exotic animals like birds. Throughout my life I've personally owned a snake, rabbit, hamsters, cats, dogs, spiders, moths and a bird! I'm looking forward to be an extra loving hand for your pets! I'm currently a full-time pet carer, caring for my special needs cats and others' lovely pets. I have plenty of time to care for your beloved fur babies and understand the ever-changing pace of life with pets, and am happy to accommodate. Any timeframe and any day, you can count on me to be reliable! Every pet parent is different and we all like specifics when it comes to the pets we love, so I always like to discuss with you about what you'd like done regarding crating, backyard time, car rides or park visits and waste disposal. I NEVER use punishment on any pet, and instead prefer a positive reinforcement only approach. I would like to be aware of your pets' allergies, triggers, injuries and fears so I can provide the best experience for them and for you!
“Eric was on time, professional, and my dog adored him. For 30 minutes each day, he walked him and even got on the ground and played with him. I will certainly ask Eric to help out in the future when I need a walker again.”

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.
About: I’ve worked professionally with animals for over a year and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and exotic pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I previously worked at a dog boarding facility, where I cared for pets with a wide range of needs, including administering medications, caring for senior pets, handling anxious and reactive animals, and following individualized care routines. I currently work as a kennel technician at a veterinary hospital, where I am learning more about animal health and daily medical care. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, giving insulin injections, and safely giving pills to pets that are hesitant to take them with food. I understand how important it is to carefully monitor pets for changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. At home, I also care for 3 cats and 2 lizards, giving me firsthand experience with both traditional and exotic pets. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, elderly, or has special medical needs, I’ll treat them with the same patience, attention, and compassion that I give every animal I care for. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced hands. :) I currently work full-time at a veterinary hospital on a rotating schedule, so my workdays vary from week to week. Because of that, I keep my availability updated regularly. Even on days that I’m working, I’m often available to provide drop-in visits before work, after work, or during other available times depending on my schedule. On my days off, I have much greater flexibility and can accommodate multiple visits or longer stays. I am currently only accepting bookings no longer than 2 weeks. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I’ll always communicate my availability clearly before booking and make sure your pet receives reliable, attentive care. If you have specific timing needs, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to discuss whether I can accommodate them! I believe the best care comes from keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. During each visit, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, potty breaks or litter box care, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention based on their individual personality and needs. I’m happy to administer medications as directed, follow special feeding instructions, and accommodate senior pets or those with medical needs. I always pay close attention to a pet’s behavior and well-being and will let you know immediately if I notice anything concerning. I am totally okay with sending photo and video updates so you can see how your pet is doing. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, go for walks, or simply have someone sit quietly with them, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you return. :)) At this time, I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I may also be able to care for small caged pets in my home on a case-by-case basis.
About: I’ve always had animals in the home growing and and being on my own. I love all animals and I’m very reliable and respectful of all animals and homes! I am currently a stay at home mom so I have open availability to help you give your fur babies the best care and companionship! I have a 1 year old husky at home so I’m used to big energetic dogs! And I have a cat fur baby I’ve had for years.
About: I’ve had dozens of different animals since I was young. Ranging from farm animals, domestic animals, parrots and reptiles. Medication administration experience and bottle feeding as well. No care details are too extra or complicated. I am open to sitting any type of animal! I am home full time aside from errands with my little ones. I have a mini farm as I call it. Dogs, chickens, cats, ducks and more. I am outside majority of the day. We do love going to the park where my bulldog enjoys the dog area as well, so if you’re ok with it, trips to the park may be part of your pets stay! My farm is not completely fenced in, but I do have a fenced in area attached to the front of the house for the animals with plenty of space! I have a very long gravel driveway away from the main road. I have leads, collars, harnesses and cages if needed. I have baby gates in home if needed as well. My two dogs love everyone, they can just be overly friendly! Our oldest cat’s go outside a lot, so they are usually busy all day. Our youngest cat loves to play with everyone including dogs, but likes to stay inside. My female dog is not spayed, un neutered males will either be supervised or separated at night time.
About: Give your dog or pup a comfortable, fun experience just like they have at home. If you wanna get away and need a place for your dogs to stay then book with me! You will be stress free with your pet in my care. Allow me to transport, sit with, feed, and walk your pet just as you would ensuring your pet is well taken care of and comfortable. I am available weekdays from early morning until 12:30 in the afternoon and usually free on the weekends and willing to board your pet if need be. I have dog (Cocker Spaniel) that I interact with daily and would love to interact with yours too. Contact me with any questions via text or call for a quick reply. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. I have a loving and energetic Standard Poodle named Shiloh who keeps me on my toes, as well as a 9-month-old gray tabby named Palmer cat who loves exploring and cuddling. Caring for them has built a strong routine of walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I’m currently working part-time while attending graduate school full-time. I’m available for boarding on weekends (Friday–Sunday) and on Tuesdays, when I have online classes and am usually settled in at home. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment building where your pup is sure to make new friends. My home has an open floor plan with plenty of space for pets to roam comfortably while still being supervised. We are also right across the street from a large grassy area, which is perfect for walks, bathroom breaks, and getting some fresh air. There are also courtyards nearby that are great for short breaks or downtime. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and body language, follow the owner’s instructions closely, and make sure every pet feels secure and cared for while they are with me.
About: Hi! I’m a responsible and dependable college student who truly loves animals. I’ve cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors by feeding them, taking them on walks, giving them lots of attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, playtime, or someone to keep them company, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a student, but I have time throughout the week and on weekends to care for pets. My class schedule is planned, so I can stay organized and provide dependable care. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and love while following their normal routine. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you know they’re in good hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special routines. I treat every pet like they’re my own by giving them lots of love, attention, and patience. I always make sure they have a safe environment, fresh water, and plenty of care while you’re away. I also believe in keeping pet owners updated with regular messages and pictures for peace of mind.
“This was Alexis’ first time with my dog Otis and she was a hit. She communicated appropriately and arrived at the time she promised. She provided multiple pictures of the activities and locked my house back up like I asked her to. All around positive experience!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Layla! Jacquelyn took such amazing care of her, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Layla was in such good hands. Layla managed to get dirty and wet more than once 😂, and Jacquelyn was so patient and kind every time, helping get her cleaned up and making sure she was comfortable. Layla also had awesome playmates to run around with and absolutely LOVED the backyard and all the space to play! We are so grateful for how well she took care of our girl. We would absolutely trust her with Layla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Layla!”

About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my life. I am good with them I know basic care and are able to handle cats and dogs! I will be doing a dentist program soon.
