“Attentive care in a great environment. Super impressed with Ron. The dogs he hosts always look like they're having a blast or napping on the couch after a fun day in the large back yard.”
“We loved having Laura look after our Bodhi! She was very warm and receptive. Laura immediately connected with our Labrador Retriever and he never looked back as we were leaving him. She provided photos and updates about their time together and was flexible with pickup and drop off times. We won’t hesitate to call on Laura the next time we need pet sitting services.”
“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!”
“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.”

“Stephanie is an excellent dog sitter. My large dog was well cared for, and received a ton of care & attention. I highly recommend Stephanie, and we will certainly be repeat customers.”
“Couldn't be happier with the care our dog received. They kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was obvious our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. They treated him like one of their own, and we came home to a relaxed, happy pup. It's such a relief to know we have someone we can completely trust. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter, and we'll definitely be booking with them again!”

“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!”

“Biggie and our pack just moved cross-country and needed a last-minute sitter for him while we viewed some homes. Jennifer and Matthew were fantastic, and so kind. They promised to take care introducing him to their kids and another dog, kept communication open, and sent photos that showed how happy he was running and playing. As much as I missed him, I can tell he had a blast with them. We look forward to the next visit, thank you both for making our first Rover experience in NC such a good one.”

I have a pretty open schedule during the weekends so I’m very flexible and I’m willing to stay at your house or bring them over to interact with my own pet. I do have a fur baby of my own who is super friendly and loves everyone and anyone that will pay attention to him. “

About: As a child and all throughout my adult years we always had animals in the house. They bring so much joy and comfort, often in times we didn’t know we needed it. I love all types of animals. I don’t mind any size or breed, they will all be loved the same. Leaving and trusting your pet with a stranger can often be scary, for both you and the pet. Which is why I make my visiting pets feel right at home by providing them with a large yard to run and play fetch, plenty of belly rubs and daily picture updates, leaving you with the comfort and security knowing your pet is being well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-baby!
About: What sets me apart is my ability to take pet care seriously without taking myself too seriously. I’m patient, observant, calm, and respectful of routines.

I believe animals deserve consistency, patience, and kindness. I’m the type of person who talks to pets like they understand (because… they do), celebrates small wins like a voluntary cuddle, and never rushes trust. I take pride in being reliable, warm, and easy to work with. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule intentionally, allowing time for feedings, check-ins, play, and quiet companionship. I’m consistent, punctual, and flexible, and I never treat pet care like an afterthought. Its something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I treat every home and pet with respect and care. I follow instructions closely, double-check doors and routines, and keep environments calm and secure. I prioritize cleanliness, safety, and your pet’s comfort at all times. Trust matters to me! Both yours and your pet’s and I work to earn it every visit.

About: Hi! My name is Merrily, and I am a student at UNC! I have been an animal lover my whole life, growing up with two dogs and a cat! My dogs were a sweet boxer and a lively pug, so I have experience with both big and small dogs! I especially loved to take my boxer on long walks and runs, and cuddled and played with my pug.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every animal in my care. I currently have a Husky, a Pitbull, and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. From active dogs that love long walks and playtime to cats that need a calm and caring environment, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve also cared for many cats over the years and know that every pet has their own routine and unique needs. I treat every animal like family and focus on providing reliable, loving care while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. My passion for animals truly shows in the patience, care, and attention I give to every pet I meet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I work full time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need throughout the week. I’m also available on weekends, which gives me even more time to focus on providing quality care and companionship. As a pet owner myself with a Husky, a Pitbull, and a cat, I’m already used to maintaining feeding schedules, exercise routines, and giving pets lots of love and attention every day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm environment, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe, and caring environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Since I have experience with both high-energy dogs and cats, I’m comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel relaxed in their familiar environment while also keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I provide updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and in good hands.

About: Hi, I’m Lona! 🐾 I’m an animal lover currently in a veterinary assistant program with hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs. I’ll treat your pet like family, giving them plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while keeping you updated with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! 💕 Right now, I’m in between jobs, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight sitting, I’m available and committed to meeting your pet’s needs. I love staying active, so dog walking fits perfectly into my daily routine — it helps keep me moving and gives me a chance to bond with your pet. Since I’m not tied to a strict 9-to-5 schedule, I can easily adapt to last-minute requests, extended stays, or custom routines that work best for you and your furry friend. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my own home or in the client’s home, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and consistency. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and preferences, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule and make them feel secure and loved.
About: I have gained experience caring for animals throughout my entire life. I love to make animals happy whether we are playing, going on walks, or simple cuddles and pets. I have experience with both raising puppies, older dogs, and even sick or physically impaired dogs. I have so much love for all! Allow me to give you peace of mind, with proper care and love, when you have to be away for your fur family :) I currently only work part time or from home. My schedule is flexible & easily adjustable when needed. I can easily accommodate different needs to ensure your pet is well cared for. I am able to care for pets in any way needed. I will take them on walks in the park next to my home, crate if needed, & cuddle up with them on my couch.

“Attentive care in a great environment. Super impressed with Ron. The dogs he hosts always look like they're having a blast or napping on the couch after a fun day in the large back yard.”
“We loved having Laura look after our Bodhi! She was very warm and receptive. Laura immediately connected with our Labrador Retriever and he never looked back as we were leaving him. She provided photos and updates about their time together and was flexible with pickup and drop off times. We won’t hesitate to call on Laura the next time we need pet sitting services.”
“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.”

They treated him like one of their own, and we came home to a relaxed, happy pup. It's such a relief to know we have someone we can completely trust. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter, and we'll definitely be booking with them again!”

“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!”

They promised to take care introducing him to their kids and another dog, kept communication open, and sent photos that showed how happy he was running and playing. As much as I missed him, I can tell he had a blast with them. We look forward to the next visit, thank you both for making our first Rover experience in NC such a good one.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with puppies, including basic training reinforcement, potty routines, and high-energy play, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication support, or extra patience and comfort. I’m reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. Because I’m organized and reliable, I’m able to stick closely to pets’ normal routines, which helps them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I care for pets by following their usual routines as closely as possible, whether they’re in my home or in their own. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I keep a clean, safe environment and closely monitor each pet’s behavior, comfort, and needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and provide regular updates so owners feel confident and at ease. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“10000/10 would recommend Francis for pet sitting. We scheduled her for a week when I was expecting my baby and life happens and I needed a few days earlier. Francis was 100% willing to working with us and accommodate us dropping him of early and being flexible with the pick up time. She sent multiple updates per day and worked with our nervous nelly of a dog to get him comfortable walking the neighborhood.”
