Highly-rated overnight sitters - Duncan
“Christina & Christopher cared for my dog for 3 weeks, the longest I have ever left her, and I felt very comfortable. They kept in good communication with comments and pictures and I especially appreciated that they were honest when I had any concerns. I would definitely recommend them!”
“Kordula was great with our puppy it’s obvious she was well taken care of ! We enjoyed the daily update photos to know our baby girl was in good hands ! Highly recommend !!”
“Alison and family were just wonderful to our dog Buddy. She sent pictures every day and he looked very happy and well taken care of. Would definitely highly recommend this sitter, she is great.”
“Chantel was so sweet! She took great care of our girl Baka while we were out of town. Great with communication and making sure Baka felt comfortable. We will definitely be back”
“Our experience with Ashley&family taking care of Bruno, was absolutely fantastic! We couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From the moment Bruno arrived, we felt completely at ease. She was truly amazing with him, treating him like her own. He was clearly given tons of love, attention, and exercise during his stay. When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and full of great energy, which is the best sign a dog owner can ask for! Finally, we have to emphasize her extreme flexibility regarding our check-out time. Our travel plans had an unexpected delay, and Ashley was incredibly accommodating and understanding, making a potentially stressful situation completely stress-free for us. We are so grateful for her willingness to work with our schedule. We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her for Bruno again!”
“We left our 3 yr old Bulldog with Kaitlin, Jeff & Kids for a week and had an amazing experience. Our pup absolutely loved being at their house. She was treated like she was their own dog!! She loved playing with all the kids and their pups. Communication from Kaitlin & Jeff was fabulous! We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone.”
“My pup came back to me SO happy and so calm, he had the absolute best time. He can be a pretty anxious guy, so I was extremely impressed. He got lots of time with other pups and time running around outside, which was wonderful. Could not recommend more!!!”
“As usual, Lisa was amazing with Molly. It is such a relief when you have to leave and know your fur baby will be well taken care off. I would recommend Lisa to anyone who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter for your pet.”
“Carol was fantastic with our Roxy. She treated her as if she was her own dog. It is not easy leaving a member of the family with a stranger, but after meeting Carol I felt like our Roxy would be in good hands. I highly recommend Carol.”
“Kristen and her family took wonderful care of our Dashi! She’s very responsive and provides frequent photos. Dashi was happy to see us, but we could tell that she was well cared for and content. She had a great time playing with Bentley and other friends!”
“Stephanie and her family were great caretakers for our two pups. We have never used Rover before, so were a little nervous leaving our girls with a stranger, but we were so pleased with the care and communication provided! Five stars!”
“Staci pet-sat for my fur-baby Maggie for 2 days and I am thinking she is missing her and her family. When my husband and I picked her up, Maggie gave me a little resistance on the leash, but eventually walked towards our car. I have always been hesitant about leaving Maggie with anyone outside of our family because she has separation anxiety and can be sad when we left her in the past with other pet sitting services. I am so grateful that Staci took such good care of Maggie and gave us updates that gave me a piece of mind while away. Thank you for keeping her and obviously loving on her so much. 💜 I can’t wait for the next time she gets to go to you. -D. Recinos”
“Tim and Jen and their sweet family were amazing to my fur baby. He loved all the special attention from the kiddos and received countless pets and snuggles. I returned home to a very happy (and tired lol) boy! Definitely will be booking again and recommend this sweet family!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Bruno received during his stay with Lesley and her sweet family! This was his second stay, and the moment we dropped him off, he was so excited to see Lesley. That alone gave us so much peace of mind. Lesley followed every instruction we provided and made sure Bruno stayed on his normal routine. We also loved receiving photo updates twice a day, every day, which helped us relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was happy, safe, and well cared for. It honestly felt like he was on his own vacation! It’s clear that Lesley and her family genuinely care for the pets they watch, and we are so grateful for the excellent care and communication. We will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Thank you Lesley & family!!”
“I can’t say enough about Tracey. She was available on such short notice and took care of my puppy at the last minute Riff had a great time at her house. She did a great job and put my mind at ease when we had to take a last-minute trip and did not want to leave our puppy alone for the day. I highly recommend.Tracey.”
“Meyling sends updates every possible chance which puts my worry at ease when it comes to Nalu. She lives an active lifestyle and takes Nalu out on long walks which he absolutely loves. She will be my go-to sitter from now on and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Ms. Katelyn was awesome! I felt very comfortable when leaving my pup with her and Cooper. The communication during pick up and drop off made things flow smoothly as well. I would definitely recommend her!”
“My pup enjoyed his stay! When we arrived he was comfortable right away and walked right in. Joi and Lynda took great care of him and kept me updated. They even made sure he remained safe using the stairs. Definitely recommend them for a warm, caring environment for your pet!”
“Crystal took great care of Bailey during an extended trip. Bailey is a senior pup and has special needs. Crystal handled her meds and was flexible with her rhythms. Crystal was very responsive to Bailey’s needs and very communicative with us which helped us to have peace of mind on our trip.”

“Kristina was wonderful with my two senior cats and ensured they were well cared for.

“Ella was absolutely AMAZING! I was nervous leaving my cats for a week but she made sure they were well cared for while we were away. Loved the daily notes and photos. Would 12 out of 10 recommend Ella if you are looking for a pet sitter in the area!”
“Lauren was the perfect sitter/caretaker while we attended two destination weddings. She was available to meet in person to go over care details for our kitty and always showed up for the designated care schedule on time. She gave detailed updates every day and this helped ensure our kitty got the check-ins and new food she needed. Lauren gave us peace of mind and we knew our kitty was on the best of hands! We will definitely rebook with Lauren for future care!”
“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! we loved working with erica! we will be using her for every pet sitting need. she went above and beyond for us this holiday and we are so grateful. she sent so many pictures daily of my babies and updated me on how they were doing. she gave great detail every check in on what they were doing and how they played etc. she truly loved on my babies and it made me feel so much better knowing they were getting all the loves while i was away from them!”
“I couldn't have done it without Caitlyn's help. I've booked her services twice and will continue to do so. She was very flexible with both her and my schedule, accommodating my needs, and accepting my request on very short notice, which I greatly appreciated. Caitlyn also brought in all my packages and took excellent care of my cat, Ralph, while I was out of town. I highly recommend her!”
“Carolyn did a wonderful job checking in on my dog while I was away. She made sure she had food and fresh water, let her out, spent time with her, and sent updates and photos that gave me real peace of mind. It was reassuring to know my dog was being cared for and getting some extra attention while I was gone. I would absolutely recommend her and would gladly use her services again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for around 30 years. I have both fostered and owned animals as well as watched other. I have owned my dog since she was a puppy, so I have experience with younger dogs. I have helped family friends with their older dogs who need help moving around and cannot stay home alone. I have also long term fostered a special needs dog. I am an empty nester and when my children moved out they took their pets. I’ll be able to devote my time and attention to your pets as you need me to. During my previous time pet sitting I have stayed at the owner’s home as well as done 2-3 times a day check ins. When doing these I play by house rules. Crating a dog is not a problem as that is what I do with my own. I have pet sat for people who do and do not crate their animals.
About: Been watching dogs since I was in high school. My neighbors, friends and family rely on me to watch their dogs whenever they’re away on vacation anywhere from weekend trip to multiple weeks away. I’m currently working part time so, I have plenty of time to check in on your pups! Currently available Mondays, Wednesday, Fridays any time. On Saturdays anytime after 2pm Have a dog to keep your fur baby company! She’s an older dog but loves to play chase in the backyard. If needed can put pup in crate.
“Vanessa is an amazing person. She gives above and beyond care in watching over our fur family members when we are away. Thank you Vanessa for always taking care of Daisy and when Max was around.”
“Valari was very responsive and attentive! She took great care of our cat while we were on vacation. We will definitely be using her again next time we have a trip!”
About: I've had furry friends in my life since I was a child, and as an adult I've always shared my home with dogs—usually at least two at a time. Their personalities have run the full spectrum, from my goofy, lovable boxer to our loyal German Shepherd who took her protector role very seriously. No matter their size or temperament, every one of them has been family to me—and I'll care for your dog the same way. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which means your pet won't be left waiting—they'll have company, attention, and someone keeping an eye on them throughout the day. I know how hard it is to be away from your furry family member, whether it's for work, travel, or a long day out. Let me help make it easier for you. I'm available for drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting, so whether your pup needs a midday potty break, a good long walk, or someone to keep their normal routine running in the comfort of their own home, I've got it covered. Your pet will be in caring, attentive hands and treated with all the love and patience I give my own.
“Kate stepped in immediately for me during an emergency situation. She was amazing and made me feel so secure knowing my boy was safe and cared for. I don’t know what I would have done if she was not able to help me.”
“Angela is the most thoughtful and attentive friend to our pups! Her warm friendly presence and consistent attention ease our worries while anway. I know the pups adore Angela, they’re always smiling in the pictures she shares!”
About: Cats have always been a constant in my life—I’ve owned at least one cat for as long as I can remember. In addition, I worked for four years as a Veterinary Assistant, caring for cats in both Wilmington and Chapel Hill. I’m attentive to their unique personalities, routines, and subtle cues, and I offer gentle, patient care tailored to each cat’s needs. I treat every cat as if they were my own.
About: Hello there! I have had many pets since the day I was born. We have always owned multiple cats and dogs and I have always loved them dearly! I am now a stay-at-home father of three looking to do something on the side while my kids are in school. I love taking care of animals and will treat your fur babies like my own. We currently have two dogs, a husky and a golden retriever and three cats. I have also volunteered at numerous animal shelters.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Duncan
“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.”
“Emily was wonderful with Benny! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure he was comfortable and happy while he was there. She gave me regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She was very thoughtful, and easy to work with from start to finish. Benny gets super excited every time we arrive to drop him there. I would absolutely book with Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“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: I have hands-on experience caring for both a senior dog and a high-energy Golden Retriever puppy. This has taught me how to balance gentle, patient care with active play, training support, and consistent routines to meet each dog’s unique needs. I work from home so I’ll be home with the pups all day long! I’m able to take them out as needed throughout the day and can feed them or provide any other individual care they may need! My home is pet-safe with an indoor gate for added security, and I provide regular, supervised potty breaks to ensure pets stay comfortable, safe, and well cared for.
“Tracey is very caring and responsive. She always makes sure to communicate and sends great pictures throughout the day of our pup having a blast! Cash loves going over and runs right up to her front door every time! Glad Cash has a place like Tracey’s to go stay and have a blast when we are both working.”
“Marlon was great with our pup, it was Genji’s first time with daycare, first time being away from home and he was a little anxious but Marlon made sure Genji felt comfortable. He”
About: Have owned my own dogs and cats over the years. As they've grown older and passed on, I have satisfied my love for animals by caring for my kids' pets when they go on vacation. I've gone to their house and stayed, but also they have stayed in my home while mom and dad are away. We go for walks, and I have a fenced in yard and doggy door them to come and go as they please. Like my grandkids: I love having them and playing, but I also love the flexibility of sending them back to mom and dad! I am a retired teacher and am home most days. I have various errands during the day, or other things, but nothing that would interfere with visiting guests. I no longer have a dog of my own but our visiting fur babies ( and the grands) have a fenced yard with doggy door. Dogs are secure inside the back yard. I care for one dog, that loves the back yard and wants to stay out all day, weather permitting. He is safe and secure there with water and shade, and comes in when he is ready. But most of the dogs come inside. They are free to go out to play and do their business.
About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. I have extensive experience working with dogs of various breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Providing safe, reliable, and attentive care is something I take seriously, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I am currently a full-time student, which allows me to spend lots of time at home. Your pet will receive plenty of attention and will not be left unattended for extended periods. Our home has a fenced yard and is located in a safe, walkable neighborhood with plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. Pets are treated like family here and are welcome throughout the home.

“Staci is an excellent pet sitter that provides amazing care for our Maggie. Maggie has separation anxiety and needed to start developing social skills to help her with separation and just overall being around other people and pets. I am so happy that I found Staci, because after just the first time that she cared for Maggie, I can see how happy my furbaby gets when I even put her in the car seat. Maggie gets so excited because she knows we are on our way to a play date or overnight fun filled stay with Staci. I’ve observed how much calmer Maggie is and how much she loves to be at her sitters house. Thank you Staci for caring for our Maggie with such love and care. My family and I appreciate you so much. -Dina”
“Lisa was AMAZING!!! We’re so grateful she was able to work with our last minute scheduling needs. My pup returned home safe and sound, but most importantly exhausted!! Looks like he had a great time playing with her pup. Will recommend to friends, and book 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
“Meyling was fantastic as always. She helped us out with last minute day care. My dog played with hers and came home tired after a great day. She kept me updated with photos and was super communicative. We will be visiting again soon.”
“Dylan is really good with dogs. Everything you'd want for a dog sitter! My dog immediately liked him and I could tell he was really cared and had fun while we were gone. Dylan kept us updated with pictures and commutes very well. It was great. I'll definitely check with him first for our future needs. Highly recommended!”
“I booked last minute for a dog daycare with Dean for my two Great Pyrenees. He was very flexible and caring with my pups! I will definitely bring them back! Thank you Dean for taking care of Lucy and Valentino!”
“Meaghan was great with Benny! She was kind, reliable, and clearly enjoy dogs. He came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Ksenia is amazing! Kind and so patient with our hound puppy. She is a life saver! I was caught off guard with our puppy transitioning from sleeping a lot to digging a lot! I needed help with his care, and Ksenia quickly responded and offered help immediately. We cannot say enough good things about her care and concern for our pup, and she even helped with much needed training tips. Wonderful! And her family is lovely as well.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for friends and family for the past 4 years. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work part-time, so my availability varies during the week. I work full days on Fridays, but outside of that I’m flexible. I always follow your care instructions, keep a clean and secure environment, and make sure pets have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life—often caring for more than one at a time—so daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and recognizing behavior patterns are second nature to me. I also have experience caring for cats and small animals, and I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs and personality. I’m very detail-oriented and take the time to follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s specific feeding instructions, medication schedules, preferred walking routes, or favorite toys and habits. I understand that consistency is what helps pets feel safe and at ease, especially when their owners are away. You can expect thoughtful, reliable care and consistent updates so you always know how your pet is doing. As a teacher, I have expanded availability during the summer and can take on additional bookings during that time. Currently, I offer evening and weekend availability and do my best to accommodate schedules with advance notice. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog in my home who gets along well with others; however, I always introduce pets gradually and will keep my dog separated or crated as needed until everyone is fully comfortable. Pets in my care receive regular leash walks, plenty of playtime, and mental stimulation to keep them happy and engaged. I follow all routines and instructions closely and am happy to accommodate any specific requests to make sure your pet feels safe, secure, and well cared for.
“Ella is incredibly awesome!!! She loves my pup so much and takes the best care of him. Ella is always reliable, always on time, provides tons of pictures and videos and gives very detailed feedback on how the walk or drop in visit was. She is super friendly and just an all around amazing pet sitter. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ELLA!!!”
“Lauren was great! She was communicative, on time, very sweet, and Panda took to her immediately. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her good hands. (And I am overprotective). She walked Panda and played with her, sending me pictures. I recommend Lauren!”
“They were very friendly, communicative, and clearly love dogs. My pup felt comfortable with them right away, and they handled everything with care and attention. It was great knowing my dog was in such good hands”

“Kelsey is awesome! She made such a great first impression! I can tell she truly loves dogs. She took the time to love on my two doggos and sent pictures and gave an update on her time with them. We will be having Kelsey come back again! Thank you for letting us not have to worry when we are away from our fur babies, Kelsey!”
“Kaitlyn was so great to our dog, Cowboy. She walked him a couple of different routes and took him to our local dog park to sniff around and play 😁 we loved the pictures she sent and he absolutely loved her. We were a bit nervous since we never used a service like this for our only pet but we appreciate Kaitlyn’s outstanding effort, my husband and I highly recommend her!!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and reptiles for over three years, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet and their individual personality. I have hands-on experience with dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight care, feeding, playtime, and providing plenty of companionship while owners are away. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets and your home. I’m reliable, patient, attentive, and always happy to follow your pet’s usual routine so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or would rather spend the evening relaxing and getting lots of cuddles, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them happiest. 🐾 My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are getting plenty of attention, affection, and care while they’re with me. I’m currently enrolled in a hybrid college program, with in-person classes only two days a week and the rest of my coursework completed online. This gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight stays. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s usual routine, whether you need occasional care while you’re away or more regular walks and drop-in visits. My online coursework also allows me to plan my schedule around my pet care commitments. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’ll take the time to learn their normal routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any other care requirements you provide. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior and will always communicate with you if I notice anything unusual. You can expect regular updates and plenty of photos during visits, walks, and overnight stays, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I’ll also treat your home with care and respect and make sure everything is secure when I arrive and leave.
“Rissa has been nothing short of amazing with my dogs. She spent plenty of time with the dogs and made sure they got lots of love and attention. I also felt reassured having her as a walker with all the constant updates and pics. She also managed to get our dogs to walk better then they ever have. We will absolutely be using her again”

“Vanessa takes my 1 year old puppy to her yard to exercise and play everyday! I work and don’t have a fenced in yard so I can’t explain how much of a help it is to me and my household. Very kind, generous, responsible and knows a lot about training/caring for dogs. Would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone.”

“Staci pet-sat for my fur-baby Maggie for 2 days and I am thinking she is missing her and her family. When my husband and I picked her up, Maggie gave me a little resistance on the leash, but eventually walked towards our car. I have always been hesitant about leaving Maggie with anyone outside of our family because she has separation anxiety and can be sad when we left her in the past with other pet sitting services. I am so grateful that Staci took such good care of Maggie and gave us updates that gave me a piece of mind while away. Thank you for keeping her and obviously loving on her so much. 💜 I can’t wait for the next time she gets to go to you. -D. Recinos”
“Tim and Jen and their sweet family were amazing to my fur baby. He loved all the special attention from the kiddos and received countless pets and snuggles. I returned home to a very happy (and tired lol) boy! Definitely will be booking again and recommend this sweet family!”
“I can’t say enough about Tracey. She was available on such short notice and took care of my puppy at the last minute Riff had a great time at her house. She did a great job and put my mind at ease when we had to take a last-minute trip and did not want to leave our puppy alone for the day. I highly recommend.Tracey.”
“Ms. Katelyn was awesome! I felt very comfortable when leaving my pup with her and Cooper. The communication during pick up and drop off made things flow smoothly as well. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Marisa was fantastic taking care of our little puppy! Lots of walks, playtime, and she was very careful to follow any requests for our puppy. We loved getting the check in pictures and videos! We will definitely have her sit again!”
“We had a great experience with Sarah! She kept us updated with lovely photos throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind. She’s very friendly, caring, and professional. Pumpkin was clearly in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her and look forward to booking again in the future.”
“Johanna and David were amazing. Both of our dogs came home extremely happy! They sent us daily pictures and videos while we were away. Their backyard was plenty big for the dogs to get their energy out. The pool was a game changer for one of our dogs, who love to swim. We will most definitely be booking with them again.”
“Tania is amazing! She sent us pictures of our dog all weekend and made us feel so comfortable. Birdie got many many many walks and playtime and she was wiped when we picked her up! Absolutely recommend Tania and we will definitely have Birdie stay with her family again!”
“Kelsey was fantastic to communicate with throughout our booking / boarding process. She took amazing care of our fur baby and let our minds be at ease that she was in good hands! If ever in the area in the future, we would absolutely use Kelsey again!”
“Andrea was very easy to work with. We did a Meet and Greet a few weeks before Oskar stayed with her. She sent pictures and updates almost every day. She responded promptly to my messages. I would consider sending Oskar to Andrea again if I needed a dog sitter.”
“Caitlin was absolutely the best! She took amazing care of Kali Mae, who felt completely at home with her. Thank you for all the pictures and for loving on Kali as if she were your own. I’d definitely use her again!”
“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.”
“10 out of 5 stars! I felt so comfortable with Angel and Yara (and daughter Zoe) taking care of my dog. I got every day feedback and videos, and it was obvious my Cooper was happy and well cared for. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to leave and come home with me - but I guess he loves me too. 😁😁😁 Thank you for giving us a worry-free vacation.”
