“Kirby was well taken care of. I got plenty of pictures and videos every day. I could tell he was having a good time and got plenty of fetch time. He came home happy and smelling great. Would definitely use Susan again.”
“Natalie was great and really sweet. She took care of my cats well and even worked with me on a last minute request! If I ever need boarding again she will be my go to. Thank you Natalie!”
“Deborah and Ronald are amazing!! Once again they kept my pups, one had just gotten her second knee surgery and had lots of medication to take and is SUPER picky at eating her meds. They took care of her without a problem! My pups were so excited to see them, as soon as I opened the door of the car, they jumped out and headed straight into their house!”
“Amy was amazing with our two babies jax and liala they can be a handful and she was great with them she was very patient . Amy was quick to reply when we would check on them and she sent us pictures of them i know our dogs were well loved and taken care of while we were gone we will definitely have her watch our dogs again in the future”
“Bethany was great! My usual sitter could not keep Ellie, so I did a meet and greet. Bethany put me at ease immediately. She sent plenty of pictures and kept me informed daily. I would highly recommend her.”
“Ginia and her family were so great in caring for Gerty. They sent regular updates and photos. When I picked up Gerty I could tell she was genuinely happy and completely exhausted, which is the best assurance I could’ve asked for! I would absolutely use Ginia again. Book with confidence!”
“Myra was great with Buddy. She sent us pictures at just the right time. She took him for walks and played ball with him. He was a happy boy. I will definitely use her again!”
“Cocoa and Roxy had the best time. They were awesome sending pictures daily so I wouldn't miss them too much. They treated them like their own. I have them home now and I can see they worked with them because they are listening better. When I picked them up Ronald gave me some tips to continue their training. They had a great time. I am very happy. Will be using him again if the need arises.”
“Carrie took great care of our pit bull Sox in her home while we were out of town for a couple days! She sent daily updates with pictures and videos to assure us he was doing well. Her whole family gave him much love and treated him like their own. Will definitely be using her again!”
“I can't say enough positive things about my and my pup's experience with Brad. 1. Booking/Communication - From the initial booking, Brad was communicative and responsive ensuring that I would feel comfortable even before I dropped my pup off. 2. Drop off - At drop-off, Brad was extremely attentive to understand the unique needs of my pup especially as it pertained to his medication. In my moving around, I forgot to bring something my pup needed. Brad was extremely helpful in getting it resolved so that my pup's stay would be just fine. Additionally, Brad went out of his way to ask how, and what frequency, I wanted to be updated on my pup's stay. 3. Stay - My pup had a fantastic time staying with Brad and having pup siblings at Brad's house. I'm confident of this not only because, true to his word, Brad was not only communicative about what was going on each day (for the entire ~3wk stay), but he also sent pictures and videos with funny notes! I could see that my dog was active not only outside but inside the home, was playing well with the other dogs, and was being loved and snuggled daily. 4. Pick-up - The day of pick-up, my flight was delayed impacting my ability to pick-up my pup on time. Brad was completely understanding and was communicative to ensure that I had no worries. When I arrived to pick up my pup, all of the things I sent with my pup came home in great condition AND Brad sent me home with a treat that he had graciously been giving my pup as well! I could tell my pup was excited to go home but was sad to leave Brad and his new friends! Overall, we will DEFINITELY use Brad again and recommend him to anyone that is looking for someone to treat their pup like family when they have to go away. Thanks again, Brad!”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's part of my daily life. My family homestead is home to dogs, cats, and a thriving garden, so providing attentive, compassionate care comes naturally to me. When your pet stays with me, they become part of the family. Unlike traditional kennels, pets enjoy a comfortable home environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I have a large fenced area for safe outdoor time and exercise, as well as multiple levels within my home that allow me to accommodate different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pet loves to socialize or prefers a quieter space to relax, I can create an environment where they feel comfortable and secure. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and quirks so their stay feels as close to home as possible. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and communication throughout your pet's stay because I know how important peace of mind is when you're away. My goal is simple: for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, loved, and treated like one of my own. I'm a teacher currently home for the summer, spending my days building our family homestead. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily routine, from tending to our dogs and cats, to working in the garden and enjoying life outdoors. Because I'm home and actively caring for my own animals throughout the day, welcoming boarding pets into my home feels like a natural extension of the life I'm already living. I have a fenced yard, lots of room indoors, and multiple levels to give pets the quiet or fun they desire. I have routines to care for our animals and will be glad to follow whatever your pet is used to!
“Isabella is an absolute angel! I had just moved across the country and had no friends or family nearby when an unexpected urgent family emergency occurred requiring me to find my sweet Rue a sitter. Isabella was so incredibly kind and thoughtful. She really took care of my pup, so that I could focus on taking care of my human family. I cannot thank her enough. I received multiple daily updates including photos. Isabella responds very quickly and She is extremely easy to communicate and work with. She is honest and transparent. I feel Rue was very well taken care of. I was impressed when Isabella had to step away from the home for a couple hours and she took the time to check up on Rue via home cameras. I have already booked Rue’s next stay with Isabella!”
“Leigh is the furfect sitter for our boy! She is incredibly flexible and responds to messages right away. Our original pet sitter canceled on the day of our booking, and we had to find someone last minute. We’re so thankful that Leigh replied immediately and was able to help us out. From the moment our boy arrived at her place, he felt comfortable and happy and he didn’t hesitate at all to start playing in her yard, which really showed us what a kind and welcoming person she is. Leigh kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed the schedule we provided perfectly and made sure he got lots of playtime and attention. Knowing that our boy was having fun and being well cared for made us feel completely at ease. We would absolutely book Leigh again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!”

About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my understanding that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level. I’m a cat owner myself and currently care for two cats with very different needs—one is energetic, playful, and vocal, while the other is shy and prefers quiet, low-stimulation spaces. Because of this, I’m very attentive to reading body language and letting cats interact on their own terms. I prioritize creating a calm, stress-free environment and never force attention. Whether a cat wants playtime, companionship, or simply someone nearby while they nap, I adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and most comfortable. I’m very consistent with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, and general tidiness. I understand how important a clean litter box is for a cat’s health and happiness, and I take pride in keeping litter areas fresh and odor-free. I also pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, or litter habits and communicate any concerns right away. Because I work remotely, I’m able to check in frequently and provide steady, reliable care throughout the day. My goal is always to make cats feel relaxed, respected, and cared for—just like they would at home.

About: Because I work remotely, pets are rarely left alone for long periods of time. I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and energy levels... from a senior dog who became blind and deaf, which taught me patience and gentle, consistent care, to my current puppy, where I focus on training, routine, exercise, and positive reinforcement for high-energy needs. I also have two cats with very different personalities, so I am very attentive to body language and always respect each pet’s comfort level, allowing them to warm up at their own pace. I work remotely and am home throughout the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship without dogs being left alone for long periods. My mornings usually start with feeding and a walk or outdoor time. Throughout the day, I schedule additional walks, play sessions, and enrichment based on each dog’s energy level and needs. Because I’m home, I can easily adjust my schedule for puppies, senior dogs, or dogs who need extra attention or routine. I make sure routines stay consistent from day to day so dogs feel comfortable, secure, and at home. Dog care isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s part of my everyday life. My goal is always to provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment where dogs feel happy and well cared for. I take safety, trust, and comfort very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine while providing a calm, secure environment. In my home, pets are closely supervised and never left unattended for long periods of time. Because I work remotely, I’m able to be present throughout the day to monitor behavior, provide regular potty breaks, walks, and attention, and ensure pets are comfortable and relaxed. I keep my space clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, and I’m careful to follow any household rules provided by owners. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely. I make sure doors and gates are secure, food and medications are given as directed, and pets receive the level of interaction and exercise they’re used to. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and communicate updates promptly. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where pets feel secure and owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Thank you Phil and Stephanie!”

About: Hi! I’m McKenzie and I’m a full-time Rover sitter with over 4 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. Because pet care is my full-time focus, your pets will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and love throughout the day. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they stay on their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I also send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands! Pet care is part of my daily routine because I’m currently working full-time through Rover, which means I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I make sure to structure my day around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and relaxation time so they stay comfortable and happy while you’re away. I truly love spending time with animals, so caring for them doesn’t feel like work to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take seriously. My goal is always to make sure pets feel safe, loved, and at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they are closely supervised and kept on their normal routine for feeding, walks, and playtime so they feel relaxed and secure. I love spending time outdoors with dogs for walks, exercise, and playtime, but I always make sure pets are leashed and safely supervised when outside. My yard is currently not fenced in, so I prioritize safe neighborhood walks and structured outdoor time to keep pets active and happy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I would want for my own home, while making sure their pets stick to the routines they’re used to. Communication is also very important to me, so I’m happy to follow any special instructions and provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are safe and well cared for.
About: I've had animals since I was a child and have taken care of them all of my adult life. I have personally fostered over 75 dogs through to their adoptions! I'm a trusted caregiver who can handle animals of all sizes, ages, abilities and temperaments! I love getting to know each animal's personality and how to best take care of them! With several dogs and a cat at home, I am always in pet care mode (and know how important it is to find a trusted sitter). Whether it is a drop-in or a boarding situation, I treat each pet like they are my own. (Also, our cat has his own "wing" of our home so he is not interacting with any visiting dogs.) We have two friendly, large dogs, Tennessee & Tucky who have been foster brothers to over 75 dogs of all sizes and ages. Having fostered so many dogs, I recognize that each animal is unique and I enjoy getting to know their individual personalities and how to best care for them. Whether the animals are in my house or their own, I will follow the owners' instructions and manage expectations so there are as few surprises as possible. I know how worrisome it can be to leave your pet(s) in the care of another, and I pride myself on making sure the animals are taken care of and enjoy themselves.

About: Hi, I'm Jenny. I'm so excited to meet & care for your loved ones. Animals have been at the center of my life for more than 20 years. I spent five years working with a humane society, assisting with adoptions, foster programs, and cruelty cases, and I have fostered countless cats, kittens, dogs, and puppies throughout the years. This experience has given me the skills to care for pets of all ages, personalities, and needs. Pet sitting is now my primary focus, allowing me to provide dependable care, flexible scheduling, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, medication, or extra patience and support, I will tailor my care to their individual needs. I have experience administering medications and caring for senior and special-needs pets, who hold a special place in my heart. Friends often joke that I'm a "cat whisperer" because cats tend to warm up to me quickly, but I love dogs and cats equally. When your pet is in my care, you can expect reliable communication, compassion, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing they are receiving attentive, experienced care and plenty of love while you're away. I look forward to becoming your pet's next best friend! Since pet care is my full-time commitment. I'm available for daytime, evening, weekend, and holiday care.

I offer flexible services to fit your pet's needs and your schedule, including drop-in visits, walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I can accommodate cats and kittens in my home if needed; however, most cats are happiest and least stressed when cared for in their own environment. Staying in a familiar space helps them maintain their routine and feel secure while you're away.

I’m currently working part time at a grooming salon, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! My schedule is pretty flexible & I always figure out how to make things work! I always pet sit at the clients home, to make pets feel more comfortable! I always make sure they feel comfortable & cared for when I’m there, if I ever feel there’s a time they are not comfortable or scared I will call the owner & ask if there’s anything I can do! Safety & being comfortable is a big thing for me, I do require a shot record & up to date rabies vaccine for me & the pets safety!
About: Hi, my name is Taylor! I am a recent high school graduate who will be attending NC State University in the fall to study Animal Science. I have past experience with pet sitting, often for longer than a week. Along with that, I have over a year of experience shadowing at a local veterinary hospital. I also have experience taking care of my own fur babies at home! I would love to spread love and care to your pets if you’ll have me. Please reach out if interested! I currently work part-time at Chick-fil-a, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your fur babies! I have a flexible and light schedule which allows me to dedicate a lot of my time to the animals around me. When at a client’s home I love to curl up with a good book and a sweet cat. I also enjoy taking pups on walks and playing fetch or tug with them. I am always down to cuddle with any furry friend.
About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was a kid and I’ve been dog/house sitting since I was 16. If I dog sit I normally like to leave the house looking better than when I got there. Coming home to a cleaner house is always nice. I love animals more than you will ever know. I have such a strong passion, love, and interest for all animals. That is why I want to own my own animal rescue once I get out of college. If you leave your pets with me then just know that they will be loved unconditionally and taken care of beyond expectation. I hope you can trust me with your loved ones🐾 I am currently a college student and I have class on Monday and Tuesday from 11am to 2:30pm. The rest of my week is free besides church on Sundays and Wednesdays. I have a huge back yard with 8 dogs and two cats. Unfortunately some of my dogs were not socialized enough and they are not that friendly with other dogs. That is why I would rather take care of your pets from your home. I have also dog sat enough to know that when you bring a dog into a new environment they can become extremely stressed and anxious and they might not eat for days or until there owner comes home. That is why I feel it is better and easier to watch and care for your animals from your home. It will be easier for them and me.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Fur babies have a special place in my heart and I will take the best of care of any kind of fur baby.

The dogs typically spend the day with us but when we aren’t home we put them outside in a kennel.
About: Hi im Victoria, Your pet is in experienced hands. I’m a fully insured, Pet CPR certified, certified dog trainer and professional groomer with previous experience as a veterinary assistant, giving me a well-rounded background in pet care. Because of this experience, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and needs—from puppies who need structure and basic training to senior pets who require extra patience, mobility support, or medication schedules. I’m also experienced administering medications and monitoring pets for any health or behavior changes. My goal is to provide safe, knowledgeable, and reliable care so your pets feel comfortable, maintain their routine, and receive the attention they deserve while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I work professionally with dogs and have built my schedule around caring for animals, so providing reliable, attentive care fits naturally into my day. Because of my background as a certified dog trainer and professional groomer, I’m used to working with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs throughout the week. Whether it’s walks, training reinforcement, playtime, medication schedules, or simply making sure pets feel comfortable and secure, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’m very organized with scheduling and communication, which allows me to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. 🐾 When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I follow your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest, and I make sure they receive plenty of attention and mental stimulation. With my background as a fully insured certified dog trainer, professional groomer, and former veterinary assistant, I’m able to provide a higher level of care than a typical sitter. I’m comfortable working with puppies who need structure and training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, mobility support, or medication. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while maintaining the same level of care they receive from you at home. 🐾

“Deborah and Ronald are amazing!! Once again they kept my pups, one had just gotten her second knee surgery and had lots of medication to take and is SUPER picky at eating her meds. They took care of her without a problem! My pups were so excited to see them, as soon as I opened the door of the car, they jumped out and headed straight into their house!”
“Bethany was great! My usual sitter could not keep Ellie, so I did a meet and greet. Bethany put me at ease immediately. She sent plenty of pictures and kept me informed daily. I would highly recommend her.”
“Ginia and her family were so great in caring for Gerty. They sent regular updates and photos. When I picked up Gerty I could tell she was genuinely happy and completely exhausted, which is the best assurance I could’ve asked for! I would absolutely use Ginia again. Book with confidence!”
“Cocoa and Roxy had the best time. They were awesome sending pictures daily so I wouldn't miss them too much. They treated them like their own.

I am very happy. Will be using him again if the need arises.”

“Sparky really enjoyed his stay and we felt so assured that he was safe and having a great time. He looked like he was having so much fun in all the pictures that we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home!!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's part of my daily life. My family homestead is home to dogs, cats, and a thriving garden, so providing attentive, compassionate care comes naturally to me. When your pet stays with me, they become part of the family. Unlike traditional kennels, pets enjoy a comfortable home environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I have a large fenced area for safe outdoor time and exercise, as well as multiple levels within my home that allow me to accommodate different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pet loves to socialize or prefers a quieter space to relax, I can create an environment where they feel comfortable and secure. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and quirks so their stay feels as close to home as possible. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and communication throughout your pet's stay because I know how important peace of mind is when you're away. My goal is simple: for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, loved, and treated like one of my own. I'm a teacher currently home for the summer, spending my days building our family homestead. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily routine, from tending to our dogs and cats, to working in the garden and enjoying life outdoors. Because I'm home and actively caring for my own animals throughout the day, welcoming boarding pets into my home feels like a natural extension of the life I'm already living. I have a fenced yard, lots of room indoors, and multiple levels to give pets the quiet or fun they desire. I have routines to care for our animals and will be glad to follow whatever your pet is used to!
“Isabella is an absolute angel! I had just moved across the country and had no friends or family nearby when an unexpected urgent family emergency occurred requiring me to find my sweet Rue a sitter. Isabella was so incredibly kind and thoughtful. She really took care of my pup, so that I could focus on taking care of my human family. I cannot thank her enough. I received multiple daily updates including photos. Isabella responds very quickly and She is extremely easy to communicate and work with. She is honest and transparent. I feel Rue was very well taken care of. I was impressed when Isabella had to step away from the home for a couple hours and she took the time to check up on Rue via home cameras. I have already booked Rue’s next stay with Isabella!”
“Leigh is the furfect sitter for our boy! She is incredibly flexible and responds to messages right away. Our original pet sitter canceled on the day of our booking, and we had to find someone last minute. We’re so thankful that Leigh replied immediately and was able to help us out. From the moment our boy arrived at her place, he felt comfortable and happy and he didn’t hesitate at all to start playing in her yard, which really showed us what a kind and welcoming person she is. Leigh kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed the schedule we provided perfectly and made sure he got lots of playtime and attention. Knowing that our boy was having fun and being well cared for made us feel completely at ease. We would absolutely book Leigh again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!”
“Jessica was absolutely incredible with our pup!! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with frequent photos/videos throughout the day. Her dogs also become bffs with your pup and Leo will give any high energy dog a run for their money like he did with our pup :) Jessica is very professional and fully has our trust and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”
“Samantha did a great job boarding and caring for our Labrador Lizzie (8 years old and walks on 3 legs) while we were on vacation. We received pictures each day of Lizzie and she appeared to always be having a good time. I fully trust Samantha with our Lab and I'm definite we will be using her services again in the near future. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give Samantha a 15+... Her communication was great and I always felt Lizzie was well cared for and in safe hands.”
“I had a lot of anxiety leaving my pup for the very first time and Russell did an amazing job with her! I would highly recommend him for your pet’s care! She was very well taken care of and he played with her, took her on walks and made her feel right at home. She is a high energy dog and he did fantastic with her!”
“Sarah and Erik were wonderful! Our lab Smoky stayed with them for several days and no doubt had a great time. They have a very safe and welcoming space and a great yard for larger dogs who love to play, and their sweet pup Rosie is just the icing on the cake! Would definitely recommend 😊”
