Thank you Laura!”

“I am so over the top with Martine and Ronald. My dog is a senior dog. He is still capable of doing everything on his own but he is an older dog, so I have a hard time leaving him with anyone. I was referred to Martine and Ronald and I could not have been more pleased. I did not the drop my dog off as I had to leave town, but my boyfriend did and he immediately called me and said "I do not know how you found these people but Tito will be in great hands. Martine contact me two or three times a day. I brag on how easy my dog is because he is a lover. It was comforting to know that Martine immediately realized this about him. Thank you both from the bottom of my heart.”
“Kona was well taken care of by Yaryna and her family. She came home happy and full of energy. I got daily updates on how she was doing. She also got some good walks, which not all Rover sitters will do. I liked how she only takes one pet at a time. Very happy.”
“Very thorough getting all the care details ahead of the stay. Sent pics and updates throughout the day. Prompt and communicative when they observed one of my pups wasn’t having much of an appetite and worked to resolve the issue. Felt peace of mind throughout my trip knowing my pups were being well cared for in a warm and welcoming home.”
“Stacey was fantastic! She loved on Sakari, sending pictures of her everyday. Sakari made a buddy, Stacey's toy poodle, Mackey. They played in Stacey's lovely, fenced-in backyard all day long.

“Tori was great! One of our cats was recently diagnosed with a couple of medical conditions which require oral and injected medications. This complication along with the fact that he is extremely shy, we were concerned about being able to leave home for a week. Tori came by twice before we left to help get him acclimated. She provided updates on each cat while we were gone and provided great peace of mind. Thanks again!”
“Charlie (cat) loved having Sara come by. I understand he was waiting. When I got home he was also waiting at the door, but soon realized it was just me. She did a great job. She sent pictures and communicated extremely well. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and compassionate animal lover. Thanks Sara.”

“George is great! We use him frequently for daycare, and Bentley always comes home happy and tired at the end of the day. George takes Bentley running and swimming during the day, you name it. He also works with your dog on different commands to help their stay go smoothly. Highly recommend!!”
“Sloane is the BEST!! Her updates are detailed with lots of photos, and as an anxious dog mom, I really appreciate that! Cooper has such a great time with her and always comes home tired from all the fun. 10/10, cannot recommend more!”
“My dog Reese is so happy to spend the day with Arden! By our second and third visits, Reese had learned what it means when I say “you’re going to see your friend Arden today,” and she happy whines in the car when we get close to her house! Very grateful to have her as a backup parent for when I need a break.”
“Lucy had a great first stay for day-care with Austin! They have a relaxed, laid back environment that works great for her. She loves getting to curl up on a quiet couch for naps, plus she gets to play with other dog friends! It was the perfect balance, and she wasn’t stressed or anxious when we picked her up, which is a HUGE win in our book! We will definitely rebook!”
“Dawn is a great dog sitter. She took lots of photos, and her dog Rice was a wonderful host too! She took care of Ruby and Toasty for the day in her home as a "trial run" to make sure all 3 dogs were compatible so we will definitely be using her in the future for extended stays. Highly recommend.”
“Archer had a fantastic day with Brittany! She kept me updated on how he was doing, took him to the dog park, sent pics, was very responsive. Would definitely use again.”

“Ahmal is a wonderful sitter! From our first interaction, it was super easy to communicate with him. He has a number of barriers in his house and yard to keep dogs of varying energy levels safe. I could tell that my dog had a good day at daycare when I arrived to pick him up. Thanks Ahmal!”
“Karissa and her kids were amazing with my Brinkley! Super sweet and communicative. Followed instructions and administered meds my pup needed. Will definitely be my go-to sitter in Raleigh!!”
About: I previously provided pet care on Rover and took some time away. I’m now back and excited to welcome new clients! I’m committed to reliable, attentive care and keeping you updated every step of the way. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally—it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m often the “aunt” to my friends’ dogs, and I treat every pup with that same level of affection, patience, and attention. My priority is making every dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs—whether they’re an energetic puppy or a more relaxed senior. While I don’t offer formal training, I’m patient and consistent with reinforcing positive behavior and providing gentle, attentive care. My goal is always to create a calm, loving environment you can feel confident leaving your dog in. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening visits. I work a 9-5, but I'm available before and after work, as well as full availability on my days off. I'm committed to making time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep things consistent and stress-free, including feeding, walks, and rest time. Safety and trust are my top priorities—I monitor pets closely, ensure secure surroundings, and treat every pet like family.
“James was professional, kind, flexible and easy to communicate with. He treated Phoebe like she was one of his own and that made her and myself extremely comfortable. I plan to rebook in the future. Thanks again for everything😊”
“Emily took care of my dog tater like she was her own. I work long shifts at the hospital and would feel so secure knowing Emily had my baby! Every time I got to my phone throughout the day there were such adorable pictures waiting for me. Tater is still a puppy and can be a good amount to handle but Emily did such an amazing job with her. I could not have asked for a better sitter! Highly recommend Emily for anyone looking to leave their fur baby with a responsible and loving person!”

About: What makes me stand out as a pet sitter is my ability to connect with animals of all personalities and needs. Whether it's a playful kitten, a shy senior cat, or a mischievous puppy, I tailor my approach to ensure comfort and happiness! I am currently a student at North Carolina State University but have plenty of time throughout my day/week to tend to animals and take care of them whether planned far in advance or with short notice I will do my best to make time for clients and of course their pet(s)! When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a calm and comfortable environment for your furry friend. Here’s how I ensure their well-being: Routine & Comfort: I respect your home and your pet’s established routine. From feeding schedules to playtime and exercise, I make sure your pet’s day runs smoothly and comfortably. Safety First: I always keep doors and gates securely closed to prevent escapes or accidents. I also ensure that the environment is free from any hazards or potential dangers. Communication & Updates: I keep you informed with regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you're away, knowing your pet is safe and well-cared-for. Trust & Reliability: I build trust by being punctual, reliable, and transparent. I always follow specific instructions from pet owners, whether it's about feeding preferences, medical needs, or behavioral quirks.
“Nicole was great with our two pups. We were in town for the weekend and she came and took great care of them while we were away for an event one evening. She was Extremely professional and responsive. We would definitely use her again if we were in town.”
About: Hey there! I’m Nikki, and the adorable doodle you see in the photos is, Bear… He is one loved pup and he certainly knows it (spoiled too)! Animals have always been one of my greatest passions. Growing up on a farm I was surrounded by many of all kinds. I’ve always been trusted with caring for family & friends pets, and Rover has been a great way to introduce Bear to some fur-friends of his own! I have experience working with puppies & those with a tad more energy than most, as well as caring for elderly pups who may require additional attention, including administering medication, vitamins, etc. During the work week, Bear and I go on walks in the morning and enjoy some much-loved playtime at the dog park located in our neighborhood. I work from the office Monday-Thursday and take an extended lunch break to allow time for a mid-day walk as well. In the evenings we typically do a longer walk around Lake Johnson, or head over to the big dog park at Lake Benson. We love being active outdoors! I tend to be a homebody on the weekends and the dogs in my care are rarely left alone, allowing for plenty of potty breaks and lots of extra love and attention! I have a large, open concept apartment, allowing the dogs full access to me at all times. There’s also a fenced in dog park located directly in our neighborhood... And a dog spa! When I do have to step out for a quick errand, I always ensure the pups are left alone in a safe environment, according to the needs of each dog (size, temperament, potty needs, etc.). My home is monitored by video cameras throughout the day to ensure the safety of the dogs in my care while I’m away at work.
About: I've taken care of my family pets since I was 10 and continue to care for a beautiful and chatty cat. I strive to care for your pet with just as much love and attention as you would give your fur baby. I'm currently working from home with a lot of flexibility for time away and breaks when needed. I can be available most times during the weekend & have availability weekends as needed. I will treat your pets like they are my own: showering them with love and cuddles. I will be very attentive and ensure that any requirements you ask are followed through. I strive to make sure your pets feel comfortable and safe when you are away.

“Hannah was amazing with walking our little guy. She made time in her schedule to walk our sweet puppy around when normally not available. We were so appreciative of her doing that and our puppy benefited greatly as well! She has a caring heart for your pets and it shows by her sacrifice for us!”
About: I’ve helped neighbors with pet sitting and have always loved spending time with animals. I understand how important your pets are, and I’ll give them the same care and attention I’d give my own. I'm a barista at Starbucks and would love to unwind by going on dog walks and pet sitting for neighbors anytime I'm free before or after my working hours! I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I make sure they get plenty of attention, patience, and affection so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’m also respectful of your home and keep everything clean and organized during my stay. My goal is to keep your pet happy, stress-free, and well cared for in a familiar environment you can trust.
“I highly recommend Carlita for any of your dogs needs. She is not only the best dog mom to her Snow, but she will treat your dog as her own. My Zoe is small and aging and it’s not easy for me to find someone I trust with her care. With Carlita, I’m glad to have found someone I can leave Zoe with overnight or to come visit her when I’m away. She adheres to all of my Zoe’s special needs (pj’s at night are a must, her food must be warmed, and she has some medications) and ensures her comfort and safety. She plays with her, sends me photos, and makes me aware of any concerns she notices with Zoe in my absence. She is punctual and communicates clearly and timely. Your fur baby is in good hands with her.”

“My family and I were preparing to head out of town for my birthday when we realized, in the middle of all the planning, that we had forgotten to schedule a sitter for Oakley. Like any dog mom would, I immediately went to Rover and was pleasantly surprised to see several sitters available. I reached out to a few profiles, and Rebecca D. responded right away, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Rebecca was incredibly kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. We quickly coordinated a plan for dropping Oakley off, and the process was seamless. When we arrived, Rebecca was already outside waiting for us and gave clear instructions on where to park. She even invited us inside, which we politely declined, but I thought it was such a thoughtful gesture. Prior to our arrival, she also shared information about her dog’s temperament, which I really appreciated. Throughout the weekend, Rebecca kept us updated with photos and videos of Oakley, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. When we picked him up, he was excited to see us, but it was also obvious that he had a wonderful time with her. Oakley came home happy, and we are so thankful for the care Rebecca provided. I would absolutely recommend booking with her!”
“Lisa & her family (and their own dog) are absolutely amazing! They watched our dogs for 2 weeks and I could easily see how happy George & Angus were. I'm always worried about people watching our dogs as they can be a handful, but they seamlessly blended in to Lisa home and family like they'd always been there. The whole family are clearly very experienced with dogs as they taught our boys a few commands to make feedings, etc. easier and took everything else in stride. They have a nice big grassy back yard where the dogs could get play and get their energy out. I absolutely will not hesitate to reach out to Lisa again as I can't recommend her highly enough.”
“They were just wonderful! I got updates and pictures daily. She had a great time and we were able to enjoy our trip fully knowing she was in trusted hands!”
“Cay was completely awesome. Truly exceeded my expectations with the updates, pictures, and videos. He was patient and took excellent care of my boy. Highly recommend Cay! If I could give him 10 stars I would!!”
“Sarah was great and would definitely recommend her to anyone! She kept me up to date on how our pup was with multiple pictures each day. And Smokey had a great time playing with Lainey! Will definitely be booking with Sarah again in the future.”
“Sayaka was an amazing dog sitter! Duke was well cared for and even made a best friend during his stay. Sayaka sent regular updates and clearly loves animals. We came back to a happy, boy!! Highly recommend Sayaka —especially if your dog loves having a playmate!”
“Hannah, Tiffany and Dottie are the best ! My pup gets so excited when she sees where we are going - they are thoughtful, caring, and responsive- couldn’t as for better”
“Jerry is the best! We left our sweet baby for a week - I was worried sick as it was the longest we’ve ever been without him. But Jerry gave me a piece of mind knowing my bubs was in good hands. He took such great care of him and got along great with his doggos. We will 1000% be using Jerry again in the future and you should too!”
“Bailey was sooooo great. My dog Cody loved her and her family. She was very sweet and helpful as this was my first time using Rover. Thank you so so much Bailey for taking great care of my boy Cody.. Will definitely be using again”
