“We were SO thrilled with the wonderful care that Lily got! We left Lily for six nights, and we never had any concerns. We got friendly, daily updates with great pictures. Ellison and Lisa have two great kids who played with her and loved on her. We were afraid that when we came to get her, Lily would not want to come with us! We were so happy with our choice, and we will definitely ask them again to watch her when we go somewhere. You couldn't find a better family.”
“Evelin was so sweet and very responsive. It’s always stressful leaving our two big energetic dogs with new people, but she took them with open arms! I was able to go on vacation stress free knowing they were in good hands! She provided picture updates and they came back to me cleaner than I left them! Highly recommend her!”
“Although this is the first Taylor’s sitting Kiki, I can tell Kiki was happy and comfortable at Taylor’s house and played along with Taylor’s dog, a golden retriever. Taylor’s daily photo and sms update of Kiki’s activities gave my wife and me a peace of mind. We are happy and thankful for Taylor’s care of Kiki. We will definitely ask Taylor for help again when needed.”
“Mr. Victor was amazing with Bebe. I love the pictures and the updates that he sends. I don't trust many people with my fur daughter besides family. Now I can add Mr. Victor to that list. 💕”
About: Is your dog giving you the ultimate guilt trip as you grab your keys to leave? You know, the one that says, How dare you leave without me? I get it. I’ve grown up with and cared for dogs my whole life! From German Shepards to Chihuahuas they’re all special in their own way and your pups deserve to be cared for just as well when they’re with me as they are with you! So don’t worry, I’ve got this. While you’re out living your best life and working hard, me and your four-legged family member will be throwing our own little party. Walks, belly rubs, zoomies, you name it. Need support? Send me a message. Your pup and I have plans! I’m currently home full time during the week, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding. My schedule can vary with appointments and commitments, but I’m usually able to make things work, especially when we plan ahead! Safety and trust are very important to me and I want to ensure you feel just as comfortable as your pet does while we hang out together! I’m willing to work with your and your pet’s needs.
“Wow! So thankful to have found Lindy! I will never board my dog at a kennel ever again! Sunny was welcomed as one of the family. She had a huge yard to run and play in and sun until her heart's content. Everything was very clean and neat. Lindy sent daily updates and pictures. I didn't worry about Sunny for a monment. I knew she was in great hands!”
“Ashley and the entire family took such great care of our fur baby. We had absolutely no worries. We received pictures and updates every day. I looked forward to receiving the latest update on our little princess at least two times a day. We are so glad we found such a loving family that truly cares for your pet as if they are theirs. We will definitely book with them again! Thanks again to the entire family from all of us💕!!”

“Amy was absolutely wonderful with our dog! She communicated daily with info and pictures. This was our first experience with a dog sitter, not boarding...and we won't be going back to boarding!”

“Thank you very much for taking a very good care of Angus. I also appreciate all your updates and pictures that you sent to me while he was staying at your place!!:) It's so comforting to know that I know someone who will take care of our furr baby like their own!!”
“Crystal is an absolutely amazing furbaby sitter! I have never been away from my baby for more than 2 days and this trip I took was 7 days - and I never had a worry! My Sammie is almost 15 years old and a bit picky, but once I saw him prancing in the video she sent, I really knew everything was well. I cannot express my appreciation enough! I will be looking for you again next April now that I know I can vacation with peace of mind. Thank you again, Crystal! Book her - she will give your babies love! 😊”

About: I grew up on a family farm in Mamers, NC, where caring for animals has always been second nature. After moving back to the area from college, I now work from home, allowing me to provide attentive, personalized care and a flexible schedule for the pets I watch. Before leaving for college, I pet sat for local families through Facebook and built lasting relationships with many of my clients. For one family in particular, I provided in-home care and became their trusted “dog nanny” for over three years. From daily visits and walks to overnight stays and personalized routines, I understand how important consistency and trust are when caring for someone’s furry family member. I visit my family farm daily to help maintain the property, giving dogs in my care the opportunity for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and plenty of enrichment. Whether your pet enjoys adventures or prefers cuddles and quiet time, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. 🤍🐾🌾 Pet care is seamlessly built into my daily routine. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I also visit my family farm daily, so dogs in my care can enjoy supervised outdoor time and extra exercise. Because I’m home most of the day, pets are rarely left alone and are treated like part of the family, with lots of love, structure, and companionship. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly condo community with access to a dog park, where I often take my own Doberman for supervised play and exercise. I enjoy starting the day with morning walks and make sure pets have plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine closely and always prioritize their safety, whether that means leashed walks, supervised outdoor time at my family farm, or a cozy, calm environment indoors. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, secure, and right at home while their family is away.
“Great experience. Zainab was easy to coordinate with, promptly arranged for a meet and greet, and was very flexible! She also shared many pictures of our dog with us while we were away.”
“10/10 dog boarding service. Kristin really cared for my doggies and was extremely kind. They absolutely enjoyed themselves at her place! I would definitely book again! Thank you!!”

“Evelyn did daily drop-ins for my two 13 y/o cats over Christmas week. It was so nice to get pictures everyday and know that the cats were doing well. Coming home to happy cats was so great! I would definitely book her again.”
“Chloe was absolutely amazing! Very knowledgeable about animals and I had no concerns about leaving my babies in her care. She is detailed oriented and sent me great pictures and notes letting me know how everyone was doing. Will definitely be using her for all of our trips away!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Natasha. She was phenomenal with our 5 babies. Our key wouldn't work for her and didn't find out until we were out of town. She coordinated with a lock smith so that our babies weren't left alone. She was very attentive to them and sent us videos and pictures. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again!”
“Cassie is the absolute best person to care for your pet! She took amazing care of my super picky and shy cat! Kiwi is super shy and normally hides when people come over but Kiwi loved Cassie! I'll definitely be booking with Cassie again!!”
“Justin did a fantastic job taking care of our kitties Phoenix and Cici while we were away! He was extremely professional, communicative, and very thoughtful. 5 stars all around!”

“Ernesto did an amazing job while taking care of our dog. He put our minds at ease by giving us updates during every visit. We had a great experience with him and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person to watch their pets. We will be using him again.”
“Alexis is an awesome sitter! She took care of my three cats so well and was great about communicating how they were doing. She went above and beyond in taking care of them. It was great having peace of mind that they were being well taken care of and I could focus on long travel days and work.”
“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!”
“Ali is simply a lovely human. My dogs took to him immediately. Gus was especially excited to meet his new friend and Ali responded with nothing but patience and understanding. Ali has an energy that is simultaneously enthusiastic and calming. We’re excited to have him back :)”
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
About: Hello! My name is Nicole and I have one pup of my own. Her name is Kona and she’s a Labrador/English Pointer Mix. I enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and will tire them out with play and exercise! I have been around dogs and puppies my whole life and come from a large family so I'm comfortable around many people and furry friends! I look forward to being your sitter/walker! I work from home so I’m available to care for dogs all throughout the day. I have a crate at home if needed and a couple extra dog beds. We have land for dogs to roam, but also walk regularly. My dog is a great companion and loves playing with other dogs! We don’t have a fence so dogs with good recall will enjoy it here the most.

“Katie was so great! Super easy to work with, excellent communication. I have long shifts at work needing to drop by dog off at 7am to 6pm for doggy day care and he seems so happy and safe with Katie and her family. Really good decision and so glad she is taking care of my pup!”
“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.”

“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!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, and recently gained experience caring for cats, birds and rabbits. I have also spent some free time volunteering in animal shelters so I am comfortable with all animal sizes. I hope to care for your fur baby soon! I currently work remotely full time which allows me to spend time with pets who are in need of boarding. Because of my time at home, pets will receive lots of attention and care. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who are fully vaccinated and enjoy playing with others. One is an American foxhound and the other is a great dane
“First and best experience with a pet sitter! I’ll always have her watch my pups, she treats them like her own family! My doggies are well cared for and I feel mentally at ease.”
“Cheyenne had a great first time staying with Alison and Tim. I got lots of pictures showing how much fun Cheyenne was having. I could tell that Cheyenne was treated like part of the family. We will be back again soon!”
About: I work from home, which makes it easy for me to care for your pets and give them the attention they deserve. My work from home schedule also allows for me to have flexible availability for drop-ins and walks during the work day. I have one dog, Jippy, who is basically a goofy teddy bear. He spends a lot of time with other dogs and loves having fur friends around. I love animals and can promise yours will be in good hands with me. Feel free to send me a message with any questions! I currently work from home in a job that allows me flexibility. This allows me to provide care for your dog, whether in-home, or just a drop-in or walk. Whatever parameters are set for your pet will be followed. I have experience with dogs with many different personalities and needs and am happy to adapt as necessary to keep them comfortable.
“Prada had a great time with Javarris and his family while I was away at the beach . Photos were sent while I was gone and she crashed and slept the moment I got her home. Will definitely be using again!”
“Moose had a ball staying with David and Stephanie! He had fun playing with other pups, he got a little training and mental enrichment, he enjoyed yummy and nutritious snacks. David and Stephanie were so communicative before and during Moose’s stay, they made it even better for me to have peace of mind while I was at work. Not to mention how the cute photos and funny captions throughout the day garnered more than a couple of laughs ?”
“Absolutely loved it! The dogs were so excited when they first got there, I was updated throughout the day and on top of that, my oldest dog wanted to stay! They were both tired when they came home and you can tell they were loved and cared for! She was quick to respond and I would 100% go with her again!”
“Tracey was amazing! She sent consistent updates with pictures so we always felt like we knew what Marvin was doing! Marvin had a blast and was super tired from all of the fun activities. Repeat customers for sure!”
“Jessica was super communicative, kind, very sweet to our dogs, sent us lovely updates, and overall gave our dogs a fabulous daycare day. The dogs seemed to make themselves right at home with her. I would definitely recommend her services and use her again!”
“Chantel was so awesome with our sweet pup! Very responsive, super sweet, and went above and beyond! Would definitely book with her again and encourage others to do so as well :)”

“I can't recommend Jessica enough! From the beginning, she showed genuine care and professionalism by asking all the right questions to really understand my dog's needs, routine, and personality. It gave me a lot of peace of mind. My dog absolutely loves her and gets so excited every time she comes over. It's clear she truly cares about the animals she works with. Reliable and great with communication—she’s the best!”

“Hillary is the absolute best person I've ever used to walk lucy. She's responsible, funny and super caring. Definetly felt like I was texting with a friend the whole time she helped out.

“Lindsey was fabulous with our puppy. We had someone else stay at our home while we were gone because she was recovering from hospital stay but Lindsey came and walked Ellie. She was equally as impressed with Lindsey as we were! Very responsible, professional and so friendly! We’ll use her again!!”
About: I've always been a part of a dog and cat family. From the overly excited puppy to the scared-of-everything cat to the adventurous elderly fur baby, I am excited to meet your very own fur baby and learn what makes them special. My own pets have a few needs of their own. I’ve trained my own dogs when they were puppies, administered meds (orally and with food mixing) and have sat for senior dogs. For Sanford pets, I am able to travel for potty breaks in the later afternoons on weekdays. Regarding overnight visits, I am able to accommodate late night and early morning visits. I'm ready to treat your fur babies to a special staycation while you vacation! My yard is partially fenced, and I have a houseful of my own so I am unable to board pet clients due to a sensitive older cat. Not all paws are on board, unfortunately. For any service, including drop in visits, I require meet and greets prior to the actual service. To best accommodate first time requests, let’s plan to meet within a week of the first visit. What’s one of your favorite memories with your pet? Does your dog have a best bud they like to run around with?
About: Caring and responsible dog sitter who treats every dog like family. I provide a safe, loving environment and carefully follow all routines, feeding, walks, and special instructions. Your dog will be well cared for and loved. 🐶❤️ I currently have a job from home and I have the ability to use my time to take care of your pet. ♥️ I currently have a job from home and I have time available♥️ It would be an honor for me to watch your pets!

About: Hi! My husband and I have over 8 years experience with taking care of cats, dogs, small animals, reptiles and amphibians. I’m a passionate animal lover and a dedicated pet caregiver based in North Carolina. In addition to providing pet care through Rover, I am also a volunteer with the SPCA, where I help care for cats and support animal welfare efforts in my community. I have experience caring for cats with a variety of personalities, from playful and social cats to those who are shy or need extra patience and reassurance. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, keeping litter boxes clean, providing enrichment and playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, attention, and kindness. Whether your cat needs a quiet companion, daily care visits, or extra affection while you’re traveling, I will treat them as if they were my own. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work remotely from home, which allows me to spend most of my day with the pets in my care. Aside from occasional gym visits and errands, I am typically home throughout the day and evening. This means your pet will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention rather than being left alone for long periods. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, medication routines, playtime, and regular check-ins throughout the day. I enjoy a quiet lifestyle and spend much of my free time at home. When I’m not working, I often relax with my cat, enjoy outdoor activities, or go fishing, but I always plan my schedule around the pets in my care. Your cat will stay in a clean, quiet, and pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space to relax, play, and explore. My home is filled with cat toys, scratching posts, cozy resting spots, and enrichment activities designed to keep cats comfortable and entertained. I currently have a friendly and outgoing rescue tabby cat who is well-socialized and enjoys meeting new feline friends. However, I understand that every cat is different. For cats who prefer their own space, I can accommodate gradual introductions and provide separate areas to help them feel safe and comfortable. Safety is always my top priority. I keep a cat-friendly environment and closely supervise all interactions to ensure a stress-free experience for every pet in my care.
About: Hi! I love all animals and pets. I grew up with guinea pigs, hamsters, and gerbils at home and have pet sat for cats and dogs since I was a kid.

In addition to puppy training, I also have experience with reactive dogs and giving pills. I'm comfortable with various energy levels and temperaments. I can follow specific routines, reinforce training, and provide both physical activity and mental stimulation to keep your dog happy and healthy. I am currently enjoying summer break and working part time, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Cuddling with pets or getting outside for a walk would be easy and great additions to my day! I cannot board pets due to roommate allergies, but I am happy to care for your pet in your home. I am currently on summer break so my schedule has a lot of flexibility, including during the week and over weekends. I will strive to build trust with you and with your pet, and will communicate thoroughly and diligently. Doing a meet and greet and covering and special needs and preference will help me care for your pet the way that you need! I will exercise your pet or cuddle with them. I will walk your dog in your neighborhood, take them to a trail or to a park, play with them using their favorite toys, and help with training. The most important thing for me is that you and your pet are both happy and comfortable!
“I needed someone last minute to walk my German Shepard and Lindsay was the first to respond. She sent me pics of the walk and also let me know what business he did so I was prepared when I got home from work. I've had other instances where I've had to book last minute, but Lindsay is my girl for pur household whenever we need services, hands down! Thanks, Lindsay, for all that you did for our baby! ❤️”

I’m also a proud cat mom to two of my own, and I truly love spending time with animals. I’m an active, outdoorsy person and am always happy to match your dog’s energy, whether that means going for a walk, playing in the yard, or getting out for a run.

I take communication seriously and am happy to share pictures and regular updates during my time with your pet so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

“We were SO thrilled with the wonderful care that Lily got! We left Lily for six nights, and we never had any concerns. We got friendly, daily updates with great pictures. Ellison and Lisa have two great kids who played with her and loved on her. We were afraid that when we came to get her, Lily would not want to come with us! We were so happy with our choice, and we will definitely ask them again to watch her when we go somewhere. You couldn't find a better family.”
“Although this is the first Taylor’s sitting Kiki, I can tell Kiki was happy and comfortable at Taylor’s house and played along with Taylor’s dog, a golden retriever. Taylor’s daily photo and sms update of Kiki’s activities gave my wife and me a peace of mind. We are happy and thankful for Taylor’s care of Kiki. We will definitely ask Taylor for help again when needed.”

I knew she was in great hands!”

About: I grew up on a family farm in Mamers, NC, where caring for animals has always been second nature. After moving back to the area from college, I now work from home, allowing me to provide attentive, personalized care and a flexible schedule for the pets I watch. Before leaving for college, I pet sat for local families through Facebook and built lasting relationships with many of my clients. For one family in particular, I provided in-home care and became their trusted “dog nanny” for over three years. From daily visits and walks to overnight stays and personalized routines, I understand how important consistency and trust are when caring for someone’s furry family member. I visit my family farm daily to help maintain the property, giving dogs in my care the opportunity for supervised outdoor time, exercise, and plenty of enrichment. Whether your pet enjoys adventures or prefers cuddles and quiet time, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. 🤍🐾🌾 Pet care is seamlessly built into my daily routine. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I also visit my family farm daily, so dogs in my care can enjoy supervised outdoor time and extra exercise. Because I’m home most of the day, pets are rarely left alone and are treated like part of the family, with lots of love, structure, and companionship. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. I live in a pet-friendly condo community with access to a dog park, where I often take my own Doberman for supervised play and exercise. I enjoy starting the day with morning walks and make sure pets have plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine closely and always prioritize their safety, whether that means leashed walks, supervised outdoor time at my family farm, or a cozy, calm environment indoors. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, secure, and right at home while their family is away.
“Great experience. Zainab was easy to coordinate with, promptly arranged for a meet and greet, and was very flexible! She also shared many pictures of our dog with us while we were away.”
“10/10 dog boarding service. Kristin really cared for my doggies and was extremely kind. They absolutely enjoyed themselves at her place! I would definitely book again! Thank you!!”
“Christina is so kind and our basset hound had a great stay with her. She sent lots of pics and videos while we were out of town which we appreciated. Will book again!”
“Emily has been great! She took great care of our little guy for the weekend. She’s been very informative and responsive, even when I have been that annoying dog mom. Thanks so much for taking care of our little guy!”
“Mary and Jonathan are rockstars!!! They treat our pups like their own. They provide frequent updates with videos and photos. I’ve been so impressed and happy with the care that they have taken of our pups.”
“Amanda and her family were the absolute best. I’m so grateful with the love and care they gave Venus over these five days. Venus had an amazing time and the updates / photos from Amanda across the week were perfect. Thank you so much!”
“Jill was absolutely amazing with Lola! She kept us updated throughout the entire week, sent multiple pictures, and stayed in constant communication, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Lola was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Jill went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch her. We will absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring with their pets. Thank you, Jill, for taking such great care of our girl! ❤️🐾”
“This was Daisy’s first boarding with Tracey and we could not be more pleased. She went out of her way to make Daisy feel welcome and safe. Our Goldendoodle got plenty of exercise, outdoor and indoor play and quiet time. We also received photos every day, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. We will definitely be back!”
