“Dana is the best! We had to go out of town last minute for a couple of nights and she happily watched our dog without question. She sent multiple updates each day and even gave him new toys to play with while he was there. He was a happy boy when we picked him up!”
“Alyssa always does a spectacular job taking care of Dolly, and this time was no different. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants great care of their pet while away.”
“Cheryl was very friendly and took care of Zoey as if she would be her own puppy. She sent me very nice pictures of Zoey. Zoey had a great time with Speckles!!!”
“Great daily updates and I think Zoe enjoyed her time with Linda and Koda. She was napping very comfortably when I went to pick her up!! Thank you again Linda!”
“Heaven sent!! Christal (and her sweet kiddos) were a true blessing. My dog landed in the perfect home while we were vacationing. The communication was prompt, from the moment I requested her services (at 4AM), Christal answered and took in my puppy that same afternoon. He was well cared for, seemed happy with his daily walks and play time. I appreciate the photos I would receive throughout the day. I recommend Christal and will definitely reach out to her when I need a pet sitter. Christal: Thank you SO MUCH! Max sends his love to you and your family!”
“This was our first time leaving our two small dogs with Bozena and she was amazing! Very attentive, asked lots of questions, and sent lots of pictures and updates during. Our dogs seemed to enjoy all of the attention and cuddles! Will book her again in the future!”
“Alejandra is wonderful. We've had our large, high-maintenance dog stay with her multiple times now, and she has been so great with him. She sends lots of photos and videos. Thank you for taking such good care of Argo!”
“Celeste is the best. I had an unexpected delayed flight, and thankfully, Celeste was able to watch my dog longer than I had planned. I was updated regularly with pictures while on vacation that made my day. I knew my dog was in safe hands so I could enjoy my vacation. I definitely will use Celeste again.”
“Anne and Crag took such good care of Soleil. They have a nice size fenced in yard which Soleil really enjoyed. I got updates and pictures and was not worried about my baby at all. We couldn’t be more thrilled to find such caring sitters. I highly recommend them. Thank you so very much Anne and Craig.”
“Tucker had the best weekend with Carolina and her sweet girls! They were so kind and welcoming, and the video updates throughout his time there were wonderful. She was wonderful!”
“Judith and her family were amazing for my bulldog boy. It was our longest time away from him, but we felt so comfortable leaving him with her and her family!! He absolutely loved it there, and got tons of attention and love. We have definitely found Chumlee's forever sitter!!!”
“Cynthia went above and beyond my expectation of a boarder. She sent pictures of my dog enjoying himself with her family members. My dog is extremely nervous and I saw her bring out a calmness I’ve never seen before with anyone. She is 10 in my book❤️”
“Barbara and Bruce did great keeping our two Chihuahuas! Both my dogs have heart disease and take several medications daily and other has had mast cell cancer. Both of my furr babies did very well. Barbara gave me updates throughout the week with text messages while on vacation. Our dogs have stayed at kennels or other dog camps in the past and came home feeling stressed or anxious. I will have to say they were taken care of very well and came home not anxious or post diarrhea. I highly recommend Barbara and Bruce for caring for your little furr babies. I picked Barbara because she cares for dogs under 15 pounds only, so my dogs would not feel tension with larger breeds. Even though they do well with all dogs. It's the other breeds I don't trust depending on owner training. Barbara is such a kind and generous lady.? I had trouble getting my $40 coupon from Rover to work. She was able to assist with getting this savings of $40 applied with ease. She also gave us $40 as first time users with Rover for one free night of stay. Great dog sitters for one week vacation stay!?????? Thank you Barbara & Bruce!!!! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!!? ? ❤ ? ????????”
“Ilanna was great, she accepted a fairly last minute request, showed up on time (early even!) and has a true love for dogs. She took great care of them and they arrived back in great shape and were clearly comfortable with her and her husband.”
“Kayla B. and her family did a wonderful job with our puggle girls. The girls stayed with them for a week. They administered medicine daily to our epileptic dog. The pictures they took were awesome and they messaged us daily to give us updates about our little ones. Our puppies came home happy and tired in the best way! We hope to have our girls stay with Kayla B. and her family again!!! 😊🫶🏻”
“From the moment I booked with this sitter and had our initial video chat, I instantly felt good vibes and positive energy. She has a dog of her own, and it was clear that Chloe got along with her wonderfully. Throughout the stay, the sitter kept me updated with photos and messages, which I truly appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing Chloe was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Casilya was an incredible dog sitter for my pup, Rigby! She was so welcoming, accomodating, and attentive. She sent plenty of pictures and updates while we were away and was so complimentary of Rigby! I will definitely be using her again for future trips!”
“Elizabeth & Kevin were absolutely amazing!. Each day I received photos and videos which eased my mind while I was away. They spoiled my dogs and kept them cozy all week long . I would definitely use them again. Lori L.”

We also appreciated all the great photos with the report cards! Jordan went above and beyond our expectations and we will be rebooking with her soon.”

About: Hi, I’m Jillian. I currently own 2 dogs. A hound shepherd and mini dachshund beagle. Growing up we had a chocolate lab. Later on the family adopted a shepherd mix and then a husky. I also used to have an adorable little hedgehog and 2 birds. I currently work full time during the week and the occasional Saturday. Depending on distance I will be available for your pets for a mid day check in. I have experience at the Humane Society of Eastern North Carolina; walking/playing with dogs and feeding cats. I’ve also worked at an exotic animal farm (It’s a Zoo Life) taking care of the animals and assisting tours. I’m comfortable giving medications. Both of our family dogs take daily meditations as well as my hound shepherd. The husky is disabled, has had many surgeries and sometimes needs help getting around. I’m willing to pick up and drop off, bathe, walk and entertain your animals. I will also house sit, water plants or check mail if needed. I love puppies and kittens and I’m willing to stay overnight if needed. Exotic pets welcome! I currently work one full time job. Durning the week I have a break mid day. No breaks on the weekends but shorter hours. Depending on the distance of the address I can stop in on my break as well as before and after work. I like to stick to house rules of the owner. Please let me know specific things you would like me to oblige by or things to look out for. Otherwise the standard no crewing on people things only their own stuff, no getting on tables or counters, no biting, no pee/poop on furniture, etc.
“Nataly did a great job with caring for JT. She did everything as instructed, even while it was a slight late notice. She did a great job in allowing JT to feel comfortable as he is pretty shy boy and it takes him time to warm up to others. I would highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies if you ever need someone to drop by and give them some company.”
“Savannah provided reliable care for our cat. She was prompt, efficient and followed all of our instructions perfectly. Our cat was very responsive to her and we appreciated her caring, professional attitude.”
“Judd was great, he took plenty of pictures and provided many updates. Zuko got along with their dog which was a plus! Zuko was taken great care of in their hands and I would definitely recommend boarding with Judd!”
“Where do I start?? I am SO grateful to have found Jane! Jane is kind, professional, punctual, and a natural with our fur kids. Both our cat and dog warmed up to her immediately. Jane's wonderful service and communication allowed me to relax on my trip and have peace of mind and that is worth so much to me. We will absolutely be using Jane's services again soon!! THANK YOU!”
“We are SO appreciative of Max! He is quick to communicate and sends great updates. We recently went out of the country and I was pretty nervous about our cats — knowing Max was taking care of them really eased my mind (he handled cat house accidents, mail, and some other random/special pet requests which I so appreciated). We’ll continue to book him as much as he’s available! Thanks, Max!”
“Kiera was great with our furry little one! She was extremely responsive and communicated often with updates and pictures and kept our home clean. She followed all directions and requests including watering our outdoor patio plants. We will definitely utilize her services again!”

“Georgia has been enjoying spending two days a week at Alyssa and Spencer’s while her mom works. Alyssa and Spencer are great with Georgia and make her feel right at home from the moment she gets inside. We are so grateful to have found this wonderful alternative to larger doggy day cares for Georgia. Georgia doesn’t give too many details on all that she does while she is at Alyssa and Spencer’s, but on the mornings we go to their house, she can’t wait to get in the car and get there.”
“Auntie Dana took great care of my little boy. She sent frequent updates and pictures. I was very nervous leaving him with someone I just met but she made me feel very comfortable with the process. We even did a FaceTime call the night before where she answered all my questions and eased my concerns. I would definitely book her again.”
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old and have experience with a variety of breeds, each with their own unique personalities and care needs. My experience includes Siberian Huskies, Chihuahuas, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Labrador Retrievers, and Boxers. Through years of hands-on care, I've become comfortable with daily feeding routines, walks, playtime, exercise, basic grooming, reinforcing good behavior, and providing companionship. I'm attentive to each dog's individual routine and committed to creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while they're in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide attentive, reliable care while following each pet's unique routine and needs. I have a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with a dedicated sunroom where pets can relax and enjoy a comfortable environment. While I do not have a private yard, I live in a pet-friendly neighborhood with access to walking areas and a nearby dog park, allowing for plenty of exercise, fresh air, and outdoor enrichment. I also have an affectionate Ragdoll cat who is comfortable around other animals and enjoys companionship. I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment where every pet feels comfortable and cared for.
About: I raised my Shih Tzu from 3 months up until I lost him to kidney disease on 9/11/2024. I walked him on a regular basis except rainy days (he hated getting wet lol), he was potty trained and free to roam the house while I was not home. Everyone ( family, friends, neighbors) knew how much I loved and cared for him. When he was in his last days from kidney failure, I stayed by his side until the end. I kept his routine the same. I pushed him in his stroller when he could not walk anymore. Administered him an IV daily to keep him hydrated when he barely ate and drank. I laid with him and held him until he let me know it was time for him to go to that Rainbow Bridge. As a newly retired person, I have plenty of time to give your furry friend(s) all the love, walks, and attention they need and deserve. Whether in my home or a clients, I provide a comfortable environment with meals, walks, playtime and companionship. I follow their routines as instructed to keep them happy and comfortable.
“My puppy had the best time with Jane and her dogs! They played so much and it’s exactly what he needed!! Jane was really communicative and trustworthy throughout the whole process! Thank you so much for taking care of my baby Cosmo, Jane!”
About: I am a teacher and someone who truly loves animals. Caring for pets brings me a lot of joy, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are with me. Because of my work schedule, my availability is mainly on weekends. On weekdays, I can receive and drop off pets after 5 pm. During the day (8:30 am to 4:30 pm), I am at work, so pets would have a calm, quiet space at home during those hours. I always aim to create a warm, responsible, and caring environment where every dog feels at ease and well taken care of. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher, I have a structured schedule during the weekdays, which allows me to plan ahead and provide consistent care. In the mornings, I can take dogs out for a walk, feeding, and some playtime before starting my day. After work, I dedicate time in the afternoon and evening for walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I’m also available on weekends, where I have more flexibility to spend extra time with pets, including longer walks, playtime, and companionship. During the summer, I have significantly more availability, which makes it a perfect time for vacation bookings. You can plan your trips in advance knowing your pet will receive dedicated care and attention. I am very responsible with routines, so I always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any specific instructions from the owner to make sure their pet feels safe and at home. When caring for pets, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they are in my home or in their own environment. In my home, I create a calm and clean space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I give them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision to make sure they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am very respectful of their space and make sure to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I understand that staying in their own home can help pets feel more secure, so I focus on keeping their environment consistent while giving them companionship, care, and attention. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I adjust my care to match their personality whether they are energetic and playful or calm and shy. I am also happy to send regular updates and pictures, so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands 💛

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have spent more than 15 years caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. Whether your furry family member is a playful puppy, an anxious pet, a high-energy companion, or a senior with medical or mobility challenges, I provide patient, personalized care tailored to them. I have experience with special diets, medication administration, and caring for senior and special-needs pets. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. You’ll also receive regular updates and professional-quality photos, so you can see just how much fun your pet is having while you’re away! Although I work full-time, I have the flexibility to be here for your pet(s), because I work remotely. They will feel like they are at their home away from home from the start. With customized experiences for each friend, you can rest assured each day knowing your pet is on its own vacation. I strive to respect the value of your time in all situations which is why I make myself available through phone, text, and the Rover app 24/7. Because I make myself available, I also expect punctuality from you. That is why a charge of $5 for every hour you are late for drop-offs will apply to every booking. This charge will be added to the total cost. Rover’s additional time policy will apply to late pick-up as well. Cancellation policy will be fully enforced. I have nearly half an acre of fenced in backyard and a home equipped to foster any type of dog. I have 5 dogs, and 1 cat of my own, they are all fully socialized and will help to acclimate new visitors. Let your fuzzy friends come spend time with us!
About: With 4 years of hands-on pet care, I’ve worked with dogs of all kinds—from playful pups to rescues needing extra patience and structure. I’ve fostered dogs with fear-based behaviors, low socialization, and leash reactivity, and helped them grow more confident through trust-building, calm leadership, and positive reinforcement. I began basic training with both fosters, working on leash skills, handling, and commands to set them up for success in their forever homes. I also trained my own golden retriever from puppyhood using positive-reinforcement methods and a focus on building a strong, trusting relationship. He’s now a friendly, well-mannered pup who loves to play and welcomes other dogs into our home. I provide a calm, loving home where pups can relax, play, and feel safe. I work from home 2–3 days per week, which means plenty of companionship, potty breaks, and enrichment throughout the day. On the days I work away from home, I’m gone no more than 7 hours—and never overnight. My home is in a walkable area with no elevators and easy access to an off-leash dog park. There’s plenty of space for your pup to feel comfortable, plus a well-socialized golden retriever who loves having a playmate. I keep a clean environment with clear, consistent boundaries inside and on leash, ensuring your pup gets structure, love, and attention that meets their unique needs—whether they’re playful, shy, or somewhere in between. When caring for your pup in your home, I prioritize keeping things consistent and comfortable. I take the time to understand your routines, rules, and preferences so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. Every household—and every dog—is different, and I’m here to support your style of care. Whether that means sticking to a specific walking schedule, reinforcing house rules, or maintaining feeding rituals, I’ll follow your lead to ensure your pup feels safe, secure, and right at home.
“Brian was terrific! He took great care of my dogs and sent photos and an update to let us know how they were doing during the day. He took care to follow our instructions with respect to meals and medications. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
About: Hello, I'm an experienced pet owner, and dog lover. When you are away your dog deserves more than just a place to stay. While boarding with me every pup becomes part of our family. That means cozy naps, playtime in the yard, daily walks, and endless cuddles from people who truly care. I know how important is to find someone you can trust to take care of your fur family. I'm available during the day for walks and potty breaks as well. I am now retired from the Education field, and I have plenty of availability during the day. I am available Monday through Sunday from 8 am to 6 pm. I only board 2 pups at a time so your furry friend will always get the attention, love and comfort they are used to at home. More than boarding, it's Family care for your best friend.
“Agador loved his first day and was so happy. I loved the pictures and feedback when I picked him up. Not to mention how nice Keira is and the family. Would definitely recommend Keira to keep your fur baby”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who has grown up with dogs and truly can’t imagine life without them. Dogs have always been a big part of my family, and they honestly come second only to my son in my heart. I’m currently the proud dog mom of two sweet pups, a Maltipoo and a Cairn Terrier mix, who love meeting new dog friends and having playtime. Because I’m already used to the daily routine of walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of cuddles, caring for dogs comes very naturally to me. I offer a safe, loving environment where your dog will be treated like part of the family. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some company during the day, or a cozy place to stay, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your dog is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work remotely from home, which allows me to be present with the dogs throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to take regular walk breaks, provide playtime, and make sure your pup gets plenty of attention and care. My home is calm, clean, and dog-friendly. During the day, my two dogs free roam the house. They love lounging on the couch, looking out the window, or hanging out in my office while I work. They’re friendly and used to having a relaxed routine with lots of love and supervision. At night, my dogs sleep safely in their crates as part of their routine. I’m comfortable following whatever sleeping arrangements your dog is used to so they feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me.

“Dorothy is the best! I moved recently and needed someone right away for my fur baby. I appreciate how she communicates during her time with my dog. Dorothy is reliable and loves my chocolate Labrador Retriever. He loves her as well!”
“Just one week into having Max (and his fiancé) take care of my two dogs and I’m already so impressed. Max and Jen took the time to get to know my dogs and asked tons of questions prior to starting weekly walks. They are both incredibly communicative and timely, send pictures and updates for each walk, and have been extremely patient with my female pup, who can be shy around new people. I will definitely turn to Max and Jen for any future dog sitting needs!”
“Michaela did a great job with Sophie! She was so easy to communicate with! I felt so comfortable having Michaela take care of Sophie. She took great care of her, was reliable, and took the cutest pics! Can’t wait to have her take care of Sophie again!”
“Our dog loves Morgan and looks forward to his walks. Morgan is easy t work with and communicates very well. Knowing he is getting his midday walks from a caring person makes all the difference.”

While I won’t be hosting any animals in my home, communication, following rules and being on time are very important to me. I can’t wait to learn all about your animals!
“Irvin was so kind and gracious. He volunteered to watch our pups at the last minute and took such good care of them. He was communicative and attentive to our messages about the walk. Will be booking Irving again in the future! ?”

“Celeste is the best. I had an unexpected delayed flight, and thankfully, Celeste was able to watch my dog longer than I had planned. I was updated regularly with pictures while on vacation that made my day. I knew my dog was in safe hands so I could enjoy my vacation. I definitely will use Celeste again.”

“Kayla B. and her family did a wonderful job with our puggle girls. The girls stayed with them for a week. They administered medicine daily to our epileptic dog.

We hope to have our girls stay with Kayla B. and her family again!!! 😊🫶🏻”

“We are EXTREMELY PLEASED with our experience with Wesley. Our dog Nikko get’s a little nervous around new people and situations. But he took to Wesley pretty quickly thanks to his calming personality. His home was nice and welcoming, and he sent us pictures daily. We will definitely book with Wesley again.”
“Jack received such love and care when we left him with Amy & Ross! Our pup has a lot of anxiety, and they made sure he felt safe and loved. Amy’s mom was also a great companion for Jack. We will definitely be asking them to watch him again.”
