“Leo stayed with Bri over a long weekend and had an absolute blast! Bri was so communicative, flexible with pick up and drop off and most importantly, treated our boy like family. We will definitely be booking with Bri again!”
“They kept our Mac and June again for a long weekend and it is such a peace of mind to leave them with Erica and Christian!! We get multiple pictures throughout the day of them having fun which is so good to see! We couldn’t recommend them more.”
“Im so happy I was able to find Nelcy last minute to watch my dog Ally. The meet and greet was perfect and Ally went right into play mode. I knew that she was going to be in good hands and really enjoy someone taking care of my dog like they're part of the family. Loved the updates and pictures as well. 10/10 recommend!!”
“We had a great experience! Very accommodating to our dog’s needs and made sure he was comfortable and well cared for. It gave us peace of mind knowing our senior pup was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend and would happily book again. 🐾”
“Ellie & Karson were phenomenal! Due to my hectic schedule, they were willing to meet me & pick-up Knox. I also received photos and messages throughout the entire stay. Knox is a senior dog, so he requires a lot of attention & love due to his high anxiety. He also needed to take medicine on a daily basis. Ellie & Karson were able to administer the medicine & take Knox on a walk each day! He was very comfortable in their home as I was out of town for a work trip. Definitely highly recommend!”
“My girls loved Beth! This was their first time not staying with family so I was a little worried but Beth made me feel at ease immediately! She made sure to keep me updated and sent lots of pictures! I highly recommend trusting her with your fur babies! 💕”
“Samantha and Tim are so great to work with! We are relieved that we have such a reliable place to send our dog. We know he’s in great hands. They love and take care of him like he’s their own!”
“Our dog Diggs loves being with Ashley and her family, he’s treated very nicely and loved. We refer to him being on vacation as well as he’s always so excited to visit with them!”
“Lutisa provided excellent care for our Shipoo, Juno. He was in her care for two weeks while our family was on vacation and I received prompt updates from her with pictures on his wellbeing. She had a good setup for Juno and when we had the meet n greet, I could tell that Juno was comfortable and felt safe. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Lutisa again. She is truly a pet lover and it shows when you meet her.”
“Morgan is amazing!! She did not bat an eyelash when I requested her pet sitting services on short notice for my GSD. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors and I feel so comfortable leaving my dog in her care. Duncan said he cannot wait to go see her again! 😂. Thank you so much, Morgan!!! 🥰”
“Morgan is the absolute BEST!! She couldn’t have been better to me but more importantly to my baby. My 100 lb GSD pup is a handful to say the least and Morgan had her eating out of her hands in about 30 seconds. Don’t walk but run to book her when the need arises except when I need her.”
“This is the first time using Rover, or anyone we don’t personally know. Holly was amazing in all aspects! Welcoming, helpful, accommodating, caring, detail oriented, and understanding. The many pictures and updates she sent were reassuring of the obvious quality of care she and her family were providing.”
“Angela was absolutely incredible! From the very first message, they were incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the entire process stress-free. We especially loved the updates and the photos they sent throughout the stay. It was so reassuring to see our pups looking happy, relaxed, and well-cared for while we were away. You can really tell they treat every pet like their own. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again—highly recommended!”
“Can't say enough good things about Andrea. She is so nice, accommodating, and did a great job taking care of Mella. Throughout Mella's stay, Andrea sent pictures and gave constant updates. She was respectful of Mella's new feeding schedule and potty routine. She also took Mella on several walks throughout the day which I really appreciated! She made the whole boarding process so simple. I will definitely be using Andrea again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Jenny is awesome! My two dogs enjoyed their stay. Jenny sent pics and video of my dogs while they were staying there. My dogs looked so happy and loved! I highly recommend her.”
“Natalie did a great job in taking care of our pet. She was flexible and open from the beginning so it was easy to setup a visit time, pickup, and drop off. My puppy learned a lot from her and her two dogs during the stay, and she kept giving me updates. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and families and let my puppy stay there in the future :)”
“Catherine and Alvaro are so sweet and sent lots of photos of Teddy during the week he stayed with them. It was clear he was well taken care of and the communication was great throughout. I will definitely ask them to sit Teddy again.”
“Talia and Austin are the kindest people around and our dog is so well taken care of. Our dog has so much fun while she is at their house and returns exhausted which is all that we can ask for!”
“Colleen is a very special person. She took great care of my two pups during an unexpected trip. Both pups loved on Colleen and I knew they were being treated like royalty as I received daily photos and knew both pups were being cared for like family. I appreciate Colleen and her family for everything they did for D and R. I highly recommend!”

“This was our second booking with Katie and she was absolutely wonderful! Her expertise as a vet tech, communication, and willingness to go above and beyond came into play this stay, and showed just how dedicated to she is to caring for animals AND their owners! Katie is an asset and we will definitely book with her again. Thank you Katie for helping us take this trip and feel peace about sweet Casper’s care. You are a gem and we are so grateful for you!!”
“We had been looking for a good cat-sitter for a while, and then we found Nina! Our cats are tricky because of medication needs (injected and given by mouth). Nina is experienced and knowledgeable, friendly and a consistent communicator (she sent me pictures and updates daily!)! We arrived home to find each cat healthy and happy to see us! I will call on Nina again, and if you're looking for a great experience, you should to!”
“Summer is great! She was so flexible with me when booking and was great with Lilo. She even brought in a few packages that came. I will be using her in the future!”
“Danielle is such a sweet person with a warm and gentle personality. She was very enthusiastic about meeting our pets and very gentle and patient with them. She excitedly showed me pictures of other animals she cares for regularly and I was impressed by the variety of animals she is taking care of! I will definitely be using her again to take care of our pets in the future!”
About: While dogs are my primary specialty, I have real experience caring for cats and a strong understanding of feline body language and behavior, I pay close attention to comfort level, stress signals, and each cat's individual routine. I'm attentive to litter box habits, feeding schedules, and give cats the space they need while still building trust at their own pace. If your cat is more independent or takes time to warm up, I'm patient and observant rather than pushy.
About: I have fed and played with cats on multiple occasions, and I genuinely have a great love for them in my heart. I have 2 years of experience, and I’m looking forward increasing that amount. I’m experienced in caring for them on the day to day basis, so don’t worry your fur babies will be nice and safe, and cared for in my care. plus, I will make sure they get lots of love, and cuddles.
“Reba used so much consideration and care when looking after my elderly cat. She was kind, gentle, and understanding of his temperament and needs and it made me feel so much better about leaving him for a week.”
“Morgan is so helpful with visiting our cat, I really appreciate her attention and care for details during her visits. We’re glad our cat has a new friend in the area!”
About: I am 56 yrs old and have had pets almost all of this time. I am a wife,mother of 2 adult children, Teacher, and Fur baby mom. I work M-F during the day (until 4pm). I am Free to do care in evenings, and all weekends for overnight care in mine or clients home. I have a large fenced in yard for dogs to play in,and nice home for them. At someone's home I would follow directions from client.
“When I met Emma for the first time, we hit it off and I knew she would be a good person to take care of my babies. Emma was Heaven sent. She sent me videos and pictures of my kitties daily and informed me of a concern SHE had about one of them. That showed me that she payed attention to them and she cared. Emma did a great job and I guarantee you, she will take care of your baby(ies) as well. Thanks Emma and Rover.”
About: I have always loved animals. I very much care about their comfort and wellbeing. I’m also always ready for a good puppy or kitty cuddle! I have a pretty open schedule usually. I just need a heads up in advance. For drop ins I usually prefer afternoons, but it’s interchangeable. I can stay with your dog for most of the day usually, if needed. I’d also be happy to feed, play with, and walk them.
“I’m so happy to have met Kat! She came to meet Remmi, our 125lb English/Italian mastiff before watching her for the first time. I feel it is important for everyone to feel comfortable in a house and dog sitting situation-not only Remmi and I, but Kat as well! I immediately felt comfortable and confident with Kat taking care of our sweet pup and home while out of town. We used Kat again soon after the first time..a VERY last minute trip. Kat responded right away and agreed to help us out-she’s wonderful! I could go on and on-she is a perfect fit for our mastiff and mainecoon kitty!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all kinds since I was a child and have a furry crew of 4 myself! I work full time as a pediatric nurse. Not all of my skills translate but it does mean I’m comfortable with medications and medically complex pets. I can’t wait to meet you and your crew! ❤️ I’m not currently working as a sitter I just can’t figure out how to switch over my account or open a new one with the same phone number. I have a small fenced in yard for my dogs but they much prefer to go to the bosque or other parks in the area.
“Mackenzie was a God-send for us during vacation! She kept me updated, sent pictures, and was super thorough with the care of both my dog and cat. They are both on somewhat difficult diets and she went the extra mile to make sure they got what they needed. She was also extremely kind and considerate when my dog started having some separation anxiety. I will absolutely book with Mackenzie again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Forbush
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your dog loves long walks, hiking, playing fetch, or just relaxing with company, I’m happy to match their energy and routine. As someone who is very active, I enjoy giving high-energy dogs the exercise and attention they need, but I’m just as comfortable caring for senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra patience. I provide dependable drop-in visits, walks, overnight sitting, feeding, medication if needed, lots of affection, and regular photo updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe. I treat every dog like they’re my own because I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule because I have a flexible work routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends when needed. I enjoy staying active, so long walks, outdoor adventures, and playtime are some of my favorite parts of caring for dogs. I’ll always do my best to work around your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll follow their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I’ll treat them like family while respecting your home as if it were my own. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands.
“Erica was amazing! Sent great pics, welcome my baby girl into her home and made her feel comfortable because she was nervous. Great updates and pictures. Will use again.”
About: I’ve been a vet tech for about 5 years. Before that, I managed a pet boarding facility. I grew up on a farm, so I’ve been caring for dogs and cats all my life. Im a toddler mom, and I currently work as an emergency vet tech so I’m great at keeping calm in stressful situations. I’m a stay-at-home mom during the week, and then I work on Saturdays, so I’m pretty flexible with my schedule! I will have to bring my toddler with me to any visits on a weekday if it’s before 4 pm. When I’m caring for a pet, I always play with them and make sure they get quality interaction with me. I also check over their physical appearance to make sure they’re healthy and safe. As a vet tech, I’m very concerned with pets’ health and wellbeing.
“Morgan and her family were absolutely AMAZING to my sweet pup! You can really tell that she (along with her children) really just love to care for animals. I was very satisfied with everything, my pup had two days of “day care” when my work schedule was extremely busy & my pup was so excited to go back the next day and see her family. Thank you again Morgan!”
“Talia and Austin were so sweet. After the meet & greet, my dogs were so excited to be dropped off for a daycare visit. They never even looked back! Talia & Austin sent me videos of my two pups throughout the day which was much appreciated. Would definitely book again.”
“Sally Ann enjoyed daycare with Elizabeth and her doggies. We were sent many pictures throughout the day, and communication through text was great! We certainly hope Sally would be welcome to come again,”
About: Hello! My name is Jenna. I am a 26 year old graduate student at Wake Forest and a registered nurse. I have a 4 year old Newfoundland-Bernese Mountain Dog mix named Phoebe who I love more than anything, and she is very friendly with other animals and other people. She would love more company! I know I want the best care possible for her when I am not able to do so. I want to be there for your pets when they deserve genuine care in the absence of you. Most importantly, I want YOU to be comfortable with who you choose to leave caring for your pets, because they are truly a part of your family. I have taught Phoebe tricks, I run with her, I brush and bathe her daily, feed and water her daily, and walk her every day for about an hour by the trail next to my house. I take great caution to assure the animals under my care are happy and healthy. I am very sociable, outgoing, and organized. My availability is very flexible throughout the day :) I won’t be away for longer than 4-6 hours at a time if I need to go to school in person for certain things, run errands, or study :) I will follow your lead in how you would like me to care for your dog and understand their schedule as best I can so they can still feel like they are in a routine! We will walk, play, and spend time together all day long.
“Karyssa and her family were communicative about pick-up, drop-off, and events during the daycare. Gumby had a great time hanging out with her family. We couldn’t recommend her more 🐶! 10/10 would do it again.”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond to show my little Honey love and attention during her visit with her. She sent me photos and updated me the whole time about how she was doing which made me feel so at ease being that this was only the 2nd time I have left Honey with anyone but family. If I’m ever in the area and need a sitter again I will most definitely be contacting Heather on here! Thanks Heather and family!”
About: I have been a dog owner since before I could walk, and have always seen my dogs as members of my family. In addition to growing up with dogs, I have also raised several litters of AKC registered Golden Retrievers, so I truly know how to care for every aspect of a dog. I have the knowledge and experience to care for any breed - from large & high energy to small & anxious… I am confident caring for all. I am very educated in breed specific traits and understand that every breed comes with specific needs. I am also willing to accommodate most unique needs you may have; whether your dog needs to be fed away from any other dogs/people, needs daily medication or even if you need me to reinforce a strict training regimen while they are in my care. I am confident in my ability to meet any level of care required. So whether you’re looking for an easygoing home with kids to snuggle your family dog while they’re away from you, or a knowledgable caretaker who knows the importance of stability and regimens; we surely will be the perfect fit! I am a stay-at-home mom so I am able to be present 24/7 to ensure total and diligent care for any animal in my home. We have a large cozy house with plenty of space to run around and play! There’s a large fenced in backyard to run around in! Our dog has free range of the house, but we have the ability to keep dogs and children completely separate when needed (via baby gates) and are willing to enforce any home rules to ensure stability. I have 3 well behaved children who are adequately trained on appropriate ways to interact with animals. I also have an adorable mini goldendoodle named Arlo who just might be the most lazy & well mannered doodle out there! I was a school nurse before becoming a stay at home mom and my husband is a doctor, so we have a very medically trained and safe household!
“Jessica was incredible. We had a very last minute need and she was responsive, confident and we felt from the beginning that there wasn't a situation that she couldn't handle when it came to our dog. He can be a little anxiously attached and she didn't bat an eye. She was a godsend when we needed one!”
“Andrea was so amazing to my baby girl Kylie. Kylie instantly loved her and felt comfortable. She communicated well, set updates and pics. I can tell kyky had a good time with her, her pups and family. Thank you again Andrea. I will be using her again.”
“Caitlin was amazing with Winnie! Super responsive, regular updates with photos, really flexible and understanding with schedule changes, and I felt totally at peace knowing Winnie (my dog child) was in great hands. Can’t recommend enough!!”
“We love Tara and her home! Always so communicative and responsive and Imo bounds right in without any hesitation when we come visit (he has separation anxiety so that means a lot)! Thank you for taking care of our fluffy man Imo!!”
“We were visiting nearby and were so grateful that Olivia could take Bailey, with very little notice, for a couple hours while we had lunch in a restaurant with family. Bailey was reluctant to leave so I think that says it all! We will definitely hire Olivia again when we need doggy day care while in the area.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life but only sitting for 2 years! I love animals and am always looking forward to learning more. I’m a Cornell student home in NC for the Summer. I work remotely with an internship. With this schedule it is easy to take pets on walks, drop by and check on them, and make sure they get all the care and attention they deserve! I always leave things the way I found them if not better! Including living spaces and animals. I always want to make sure I keep someone’s area clean and make sure I keep someone’s animal safe and happy while with me!

About: Pets have always been a part of my life. I was raised with multiple cats and dogs, and from an early age developed a strong love and knowledge of caring for animals. I currently have two dogs and a cat, and have applied for this position because I truly understand the struggle of having to leave and find someone trustworthy to care for them while I am away. From puppies and kittens, to senior pets, I will provide your pet with the same love and attention that I would wish for my own. I currently work full-time as an Instructional Specialist. I am free in the evenings and on weekends with the exception of holidays and Summer break. I am free Monday-Sunday during summer months and holiday breaks. We have a large yard for walking and a clean and quiet home for your pet to relax. I have no children except for my own two pups. I will take care of your pet as I would take care of my own.

Very flexible, reliable and accommodating! Would definitely recommend Natalie to other pet parents without hesitation.”
About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of pets since I was a kid. I’ve walked dogs for my neighbors, fed horses, goats and chickens for family friends, and pet sat many other dogs and cats. I work from home at night, so I will be able to be attentive all day. My husband works during the day from home as well, so there will always be a set of eyes on your pet! I have a fully fenced yard. We do have 3 dogs but all are very loving and have gotten along with any animal they have met. We have a spare room that we can use to keep them separated if necessary, otherwise your pet will have free roam and will be treated like family.

About: I am a second year veterinary student who has worked as a small animal veterinary assistant for about 3 years. I have experience in caring for senior pets and younger puppies/kittens as well.

About: I've been caring for animals for over 10 years and have always had a passion for pets. I have experience house-sitting, feeding, walking, cleaning up after, and caring for dogs and cats for neighbors, family, and friends. Growing up with pets has taught me that every animal is unique, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I'd give my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm a graduate student completing my degree online while working about 30 hours a week in my internship. Outside of work and school, I spend most of my time with my family, my boyfriend, and at church on Wednesdays and Sundays. My schedule is generally flexible, and I do my best to accommodate pet owners' needs whenever possible. I often spend time accompanying the dogs with snuggles and a couple of hours of playtime a day. I provide food and water for the animals as instructed by the owner as each owner has a different approach. I often take dogs on one or two walks a day because exercise is extremely beneficial for pets.
About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals from house pets to farm animals. I currently do Rover full-time, but have worked at a dog boarding/training facility and have worked with/handled dogs of all sizes and breeds. Although I have more experience around dogs I love cats just as much! I have no issues with certain breeds, ages, sizes, or handling medicine (so long as it is nothing a professional vet should handle). I can’t wait to watch and care for your fur babies! I pet-sit full time, giving me plenty of free time to walk, watch, and love your pets! My schedule is also very flexible making it easier to schedule based off your needs! I do have my own dog but unfortunately she is not friendly with other animals. Because of this I can only do daycare/overnight at clients own homes and walks/check-ins. I have plenty of personal and professional experience with aggressive animals and have no issues watching/walking aggressive dogs so long as both me and you are comfortable with it. With that being said it is important to me that any aggressive behavior whether with animals and/or people is told upfront and honestly as well meeting the dog ahead of time.
“Lexie was so great with Brinkley. She spent a lot of time with her and gave her lots of attention. She was really accommodating with the specifics of walking her and even took her to Brinkleys favorite park! The cherry on top was that she brought a package inside for us, talk about going above and beyond. I would highly recommend using Lexie to care for you pups. Brinkley can’t wait to walk with Lexie again 🐶”
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals of all personalities and needs. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, medication, and cuddles, I make sure every pet feels loved and secure while their owners are away. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and treating each animal like my own. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, allowing me to give each animal the time and attention they deserve. My flexible schedule makes it easy to accommodate feeding times, walks, and check-ins, so pets stay happy and cared for without any disruption to their routine.

I have had numerous pets of my own over the years. We currently do not have any pets in our home but are looking to add a new family member within the next year.

“Leo stayed with Bri over a long weekend and had an absolute blast! Bri was so communicative, flexible with pick up and drop off and most importantly, treated our boy like family. We will definitely be booking with Bri again!”
“They kept our Mac and June again for a long weekend and it is such a peace of mind to leave them with Erica and Christian!! We get multiple pictures throughout the day of them having fun which is so good to see! We couldn’t recommend them more.”
“Im so happy I was able to find Nelcy last minute to watch my dog Ally. The meet and greet was perfect and Ally went right into play mode. I knew that she was going to be in good hands and really enjoy someone taking care of my dog like they're part of the family. Loved the updates and pictures as well. 10/10 recommend!!”
“My girls loved Beth! This was their first time not staying with family so I was a little worried but Beth made me feel at ease immediately! She made sure to keep me updated and sent lots of pictures! I highly recommend trusting her with your fur babies! 💕”
“Samantha and Tim are so great to work with! We are relieved that we have such a reliable place to send our dog. We know he’s in great hands. They love and take care of him like he’s their own!”
“Our dog Diggs loves being with Ashley and her family, he’s treated very nicely and loved. We refer to him being on vacation as well as he’s always so excited to visit with them!”
“Morgan is amazing!! She did not bat an eyelash when I requested her pet sitting services on short notice for my GSD. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors and I feel so comfortable leaving my dog in her care. Duncan said he cannot wait to go see her again! 😂. Thank you so much, Morgan!!! 🥰”
“Morgan is the absolute BEST!! She couldn’t have been better to me but more importantly to my baby. My 100 lb GSD pup is a handful to say the least and Morgan had her eating out of her hands in about 30 seconds. Don’t walk but run to book her when the need arises except when I need her.”
“This is the first time using Rover, or anyone we don’t personally know. Holly was amazing in all aspects! Welcoming, helpful, accommodating, caring, detail oriented, and understanding. The many pictures and updates she sent were reassuring of the obvious quality of care she and her family were providing.”
“Angela was absolutely incredible! From the very first message, they were incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the entire process stress-free. We especially loved the updates and the photos they sent throughout the stay. It was so reassuring to see our pups looking happy, relaxed, and well-cared for while we were away. You can really tell they treat every pet like their own. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again—highly recommended!”
“Can't say enough good things about Andrea. She is so nice, accommodating, and did a great job taking care of Mella. Throughout Mella's stay, Andrea sent pictures and gave constant updates. She was respectful of Mella's new feeding schedule and potty routine. She also took Mella on several walks throughout the day which I really appreciated! She made the whole boarding process so simple. I will definitely be using Andrea again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Jenny is awesome! My two dogs enjoyed their stay. Jenny sent pics and video of my dogs while they were staying there. My dogs looked so happy and loved! I highly recommend her.”
“Natalie did a great job in taking care of our pet. She was flexible and open from the beginning so it was easy to setup a visit time, pickup, and drop off. My puppy learned a lot from her and her two dogs during the stay, and she kept giving me updates. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and families and let my puppy stay there in the future :)”
“Talia and Austin are the kindest people around and our dog is so well taken care of. Our dog has so much fun while she is at their house and returns exhausted which is all that we can ask for!”
“Colleen is a very special person. She took great care of my two pups during an unexpected trip. Both pups loved on Colleen and I knew they were being treated like royalty as I received daily photos and knew both pups were being cared for like family. I appreciate Colleen and her family for everything they did for D and R. I highly recommend!”
“Karyssa & Michael provided a 10/10 stay for Meijor! I needed someone on a last minute notice to watch him and they were there for me. Karyssa was very nice and accommodating! She gave Meijor plenty of attention and play time throughout the day. What I appreciated most Maryssa was the constant pictures and updates throughout Meijor’s stay. Whether it was after a walk or play time she kept us up to date on how he was doing. She really treated Meijor like her own! Will 100% be using them again and would recommend them to anyone!”
“Jessica and her family were very pleasant to work with. Their house and approach felt responsible and safe for my dogs. I plan to use them again when I am in the area. Thanks!”
“Paisley was very helpful and took very good care of our dogs. She kept us updated on their status with pictures and texts. She was extremely flexible about the drop off and pick up schedule. I would definitely recommend her.!”
“Tara & her family helped me on days notice for four nights when my sitter had to cancel. She saved my trip and maverick had a great time with her dogs. Would 100% use her again. Thank you, again, Tara!”
