“My dog stayed with Sue-Ling, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took such wonderful care of my dog. Kind, patient, and really attentive to her needs. It was clear from the start that Sue-Ling truly loves animals and treats them like her own. There was a small health issue while I was away, but Sue-Ling handled everything calmly and responsibly. She kept me updated right away and made sure my dog was comfortable and safe. I felt completely reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Sue-Ling gave to my dog, and I would absolutely trust her to look after her again anytime. She’s amazing!”
“Andrew was great with communicating, ensured Rupert was safe and comfortable, and got lots of walks! He also sent update photos so I knew Rupert was enjoying himself and administered Rupert’s daily medications without a hitch! 10/10 would recommend!”
“Jerry was amazing and took excellent care of Raya. He even celebrated her first birthday with a pup cup and doggy cookies! I very much appreciated the updates and pictures of how she was doing. Highly recommend Jerry!”
“Haley and her sweet daughter entertained my puppy really well during a short stay. He was on the last two days of his neutering care and she still accepted the job. He was fine at pickup as well. I appreciated the frequent communication and photos. And Haley took the time to find an item at the grocery store that he might like since he was being a picky eater and reviewed it with me. I had peace of mind during my work retreat in knowing that my puppy was in great hands.”
“Amy was awesome! It was my first time leaving Bailey with anyone other than family. I expected to be nervous but I felt very confident and at ease, especially when Amy sent me photos and videos of Bailey hanging out with her and her family. Bailey did great and I will definitely be calling Amy again when I need a sitter!”
“Brooklin took amazing care of my cat, Lylla, while I was away. Lylla is very shy around new people, but Brooklin was incredibly patient and was able to get her to warm up, which says a lot! She went above and beyond to make sure Lylla was comfortable and cared for, even helping encourage her to eat when she wasn’t showing much interest in food. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. Brooklin kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my spoiled girl was in good hands. I could tell she genuinely cared about Lylla’s well-being and treated her like her own. I would absolutely book with Brooklin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”
“Olivia took such good care of Bernard! She was very communicative and kept us updated with photos. She has a great fenced in yard… allows for dogs to be active!!! Would def recommend.”
“Carey was literally amazing, I am so happy she was able to take my dogs for a night on a day of request. Seriously so sweet with the sweetest kids that played and loved on my pups for a night. No complaints and so happy to have found her!!!”
“Bella was immediately comfortable with Jennifer, and Jennifer was equally at ease with our large dog. Jennifer continually sent updates and pictures during our time away, making our time more relaxed. It was clear that Bella had a good time. Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of our baby!”
“This was my first time with Allie. She did wonderful with my dog. I will definitely bring her back again. She tells you everything that’s going on day and day out and when you pick her up. Also, she sends you pictures of dog while your on vacation or wherever you’re at Allie was awesome with my dog”
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would!! Tasha is amazing!! She was able to watch my babies last minute when another sitter fell through. I immediately felt comfortable leaving my babies with her after a stressful experience. She sent lots of pictures and was so caring and sweet to my babies! I can’t thank her enough!! Looking forward to the next time! I would HIGHLY recommend her!!!”
“Taylor took great care of our 17 year old senior pup. She has an array of age-related needs, and he made sure she was comfortable, eating regularly, and getting outside...and all of those things are challenging for her at this point. I would highly recommend him!”
“Opie doesn't like being from home. But he must have had a good time because he hadn't pouted or acted out since being home. Thank you for taking good care of h8m.”
“I am excited to rave about our experience with Christina! My dog, Bentley, loves going to her home for petsitting. Christina has excellent communication and provides the best updates (including pictures and videos). She is well informed of a pet's needs.Even when she takes Bentley for walks, she goes above and beyond. When we pull into her neighborhood, Bentley cannot contain his excitement and eagerness to see her.”
“Steven and family took great care of our pup. They sent pictures everyday which was much appreciated. We felt comfortable leaving our dog there which made our vacation much more enjoyable. Will definitely use Steven again!”
About: I have worked with all types of animals since I was a child. My friends would call me the dog whisperer because I just understand them naturally! I love training dogs and horses. I currently have 3 dogs, 2 cats and a flock of ducks! All of my dogs have been raised from puppies. I have cared for senior pets as well. I have spent hundreds of hours over the last several years educating myself on animal behavior for my own pets benefits so I am well equipped to love and care for yours as well! I have always been passionate about working with animals of all type. I will always go the extra mile to provide topnotch care and service. My husband and I travel often so I know how important it can be to find petcare that you can feel good about! I currently work from home full time with a very flexible schedule. I am able to come to your house during the day or stay nights! I can offer limited boarding as well. I love animals and I love travel. I would be committed to caring for your pets as if they were my own. I enjoy getting to know your pets as each one is so special. I am reliable and can accommodate just about any extra requests such as bathing, working on training skills, hiving medication, providing adequate excercise etc. I will ALWAYS do this with your pets safety and happiness as my top priority.
About: You can trust me to take excellent care of your pet! As well as owning my own pets most of my life (dogs, cats, ferret, birds, rabbits, etc.), I also have a Bachelor of Science degree in pre-veterinary medicine. I have pet-sat for several friends and clients, volunteered at shelters, worked at veterinary clinics, boarding facilities, and for a professional dog walking company. You can rest easy as your pet will be safe in my care. I follow directions well and get the details right! Why I love dog walking and sitting: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. My first dog, Chief, helped raise me! Since then, I have owned a dog most of my life. Some have called me the "dog-whisperer". I have a pretty good perception of dogs and connect very easily with most. My last dog, Wendell, was a 150 lb. mastiff whom I adopted when he was 4.5 years old. He had never been socialized and was scared of most people, so in the six years we were together, I gained a lot of first-hand experience working through behavioral issues in a very large and strong breed. Our current dog is Lucy, a happy-go-lucky bull terrier who is deaf. She loves every living being! I’m also comfortable taking care of cats and other pets. My experience administering medication: I've given lots of oral meds and various ointments, eye drops, ear drops, etc. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m typically available any day of the week and can do early mornings and late evenings if needed. Let me know your needs and I will do my best to accommodate! We have a secure, fenced yard, a doggie door, and a covered back patio with doggie beds perfect for lounging in the sun or shade. We also have a friendly bull terrier who will happily keep your dog company! We can easily keep your dog in a separate room while we are away from the house if you prefer. Lucy’s dad/my significant other, Pedro, also lives here and also loves animals.

“Bailey was incredibly sweet and caring with my cat. She sent photos and updates every time she visited, letting me know exactly what she did and when she would be back. While I was away, my cat developed eye issues, and Bailey was able to administer eye drops and care for her with no problems. Her communication and attentiveness gave me so much peace of mind while being far from home. I would absolutely trust her with my cat again.”
“Paige was completely reliable. She took excellent care of my kitty! She went above and beyond with keeping the litter box clean too. I’m hoping to use her again in the future! I would highly recommend her.”
About: I have had cats through most of my life and currently have a sweet 4-year-old black cat named Poe who is happy to welcome visitors! My wife and I have experience administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, adjusting to specific cat needs, and incorporating play for cats for friends, family members, and neighbors to ensure all their needs are met. I can host or come to you!
“Both during the initial visit and while she was taking care of them, Ashleigh was great with my dogs! My three husky mixes loved her! She took the time to go outside and engage with each one of them and cater to their individual personalities. She was extremely patient with their high energy needs and even took the time to send me several photos of them playing in the yard. Her exerperince of currently being in Vet school, and of previously working in a kennel and as a Vet Assistant really put me at ease in that if there were some type of an emergency, Ashleigh would be able to promptly and properly be able to handle it. I will defintely request Ashleigh's services again in the future!”
About: I have a black and white cat named Kramer and a grey cat named Pumpkin, they mean the world to me! I've taken care of other people's cats (and obviously mine) consistently and always with love <3
“Lauren was amazing! We've lucked out and have been able to have family or friends come over to let our pups out when we have to be away for long periods of time, until now. We reached out to Lauren via Rover to come over and check on our pups. One was extremely worried about her presence and the other warmed up after a while. She is communicative and pleasent to talk with via the app. Her Rover Report Cards were detailed (with adorable pics) and helped put our minds at ease with a stranger caring for our pups. Thanks Lauren ?”
About: I’ve had a cat since I was 7 and a dog since I was 11. Helped my friend who ran dog and cat sitter business in elementary school. I’m currently a student at UNCW so I’ll have time to drop in multiple times a day and stay for as long as needed with your pets. My parents have let my dog with me in my house for multiple weeks while they’re on vacation and she has loved her stay both times.
“Carol was great! I have never had so little to do when returning from a trip! The cats were happy, no messes (that's a big thing with my cats!) and it was wonderful to know they were so well cared for. Carol was very communicative and went the extra mile. I will definitely ask her to sit again. ”
“Nothing but good things to say! Katie was super helpful and always sent pictures and provided the best updated. Would recommend 10/10 times! Definitely will keep her in mind next time I need a pet sitter.”
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life, any opportunity to spend time with an animal brings me so much joy. When I was 7, I started my own pet-sitting and dog-walking "business", and would walk around door to door in my neighborhood handing out my handmade flyers. I had a surprising amount of clients for a 7 year-old... I felt to cool and I loved that I could just watch peoples cats and walk their dogs on my own. Growing up I have always had at least one pet in the home, but usually both a dog and a cat. I have had 3 wonderful tuxedo kitties, Oliver, Phoebe, and OJ. When I moved to North Carolina for school I missed my cats everyday. Now 3 years later I'm living with my roommate that is allergic to pet dander. It's been a struggle that I'm unable to have a pet of my own in our home, so I jump at every opportunity to be around one. My dad told me about Rover yesterday since I'm pet-sitting for a cat and senior dog currently.
“Ava is absolutely amazing! I had flight changes and a small home renovation going on during her stay and she was nothing but understanding, accommodating and reassuring! I will 100% rebook with Ava! Thank you so much for everything!”

About: Reliable and attentive professional dog sitter dedicated to providing safe, comfortable, and stress-free care for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Experienced in daily routines including feeding, walking, administering medications, and maintaining consistent schedules to keep pets happy and healthy while their owners are away. Known for a calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail, I focus on building trust with both dogs and their owners. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra support, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I prioritize clear communication, regular updates, and a clean, secure environment so owners can have complete peace of mind. Passionate about animal wellbeing and committed to treating every dog as if they were my own. I have decided to make caring for pets my full time job. I am single and live alone with my 2 yr old female pupper. We have plenty of time to make your fur babies feel how special they actually are. I have a small fenced in yard. If it's nice out then I like to leave it open so they have free reign. My place is small so I'm always near. I will only accept pets that get along with other dogs. It starts with my dog, Kaiya. She gets along with all dogs so if a dog has a problem with her then they won't be invited for doggy day care. However, that does not mean I cannot pay a visit to your house for any needs. I can also crate any dog that is better suited for that environment. Safety for all pups under my watch is the number one priority.

“Cara got some very good exposure to calm larger dogs and it was a positive experience! A nice walk at Long Leaf Park with Buddy was a great thing for her to do. Thank you Allie!”
About: We have been taking care of dogs since 2018! We are so enjoying it!! Hubby walks the dogs and I cuddle and play! It's a win win for your fur baby! For doggie day care we are available between 8 am and 6pm Monday through Friday. Would love long term . We do have one small dog. For boarding we are available both weekdays and weekends. We have a nice fenced-in backyard and my husband takes the dogs out for walks when possible! When that option isn't available,they have dedicated playtime in the yard.We have one dog that is not initially playful but takes a while to warm up but he does typically! I do require a meet and greet before committing and for pets to show proof of rabies shots,heartworm and flea and tic treatments. I work part time outside the home but my hubby works part time in the home so rarely are we both gone at the same time. I have a fenced in yard and my husband tries to walk our dog daily.Typically will hit the area walking trails. If necessary, he is willing to walk animals separately(older dog who can not walk as long or dogs who have health challenges)Our dog is aloof and takes a bit of time to adjust but usually does. We are attentive to this and supervise very closely until we see how things are going to be. We own both a large and small dog crate and can separate them if needed
“Colby & Debbie are wonderful to work with. They take great care of my puppy & always send plenty of photos to ease my mind. They have so kindly adapted to her little puppy needs & pay close attention to how she is feeling. I look forward to bringing her to their home because I know that Albie will have a blast being loved all day & playing with their pups while I also can focus on work without worrying. They are wonderful & I absolutely trust their care!”
“Taylor and his family were SO sweet and I could not be more grateful for them! Taylor sent lots of pictures and I could tell Beaux had a great time. We will definitely be booking with Taylor next time we’re in the area.”
“Hunter was great with our little guy. She provided many updates and made sure Bentley knew he was going to have a friend to hangout with all day. We’ll definitely be reaching out again when we need someone to watch Bentley.”
“Steven and his family did a fantastic job caring for my pup! Walks, play and he even gave him a bath after a long day of play. Steven was very cordial, prompt and sent some pics throughout the day!”
“Absolutely amazing. We truly appreciate Jennifer for loving and caring for our fur baby during our absence. She was very welcoming and made our visit to the area delightful. We will definitely allow Jennifer to watch over our fur baby the next time we are in the area.”
About: I am a dog lover. I have watched my family and friends pets for many years. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I work from home Monday-Friday. My schedule is flexible to what might be needed whether drop ins, walks, etc. I am available on the weekends as well. I will do what’s needed based on the animals needs: playing with the animals, feeding and watering, checking food/water sources, going on walks, and more.
About: Hailing from an animal loving family, I've taken care of both dogs and cats since I was a very young child. I've worked with small and large, young and old, male and female, loud ones, quiet ones lol, playful, not so playful haha. I have one current furchild and best child, Sunny, who is very friendly and outgoing with all walks of life. I'm a freelance photographer with a flexible schedule. During the summer I work some local farmers markets but most of the time I am home hanging with Sunny, going on an adventure with him, or doing a photo shoot either in my home studio or on location in the area. Bonus, I can take a professional photo of your baby in my home studio! I have a huge fenced in backyard perfect for zoomies and playing and my neighborhood, in general, is extremely dog friendly with plenty of walking trails. With your consent, I'm also happy to take your pup to the beach, for a pup cup, to the dog park, or any other suitable adventure. I have two large crates if needed and treats, toys, and balls galore.
“Andrea is amazing! She watched my doggies all day while I was at work. She was very accommodating and responsive. I know they were very well taken care of. She even trimmed their nails!!!”
About: I have owned and taken care of dogs for over ten years! Trusted by family, friends and neighbors. I am a proud veteran. I will love and care for your pet like my own! I am currently a part time student at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. I am very flexible with my hours and will provide 24/7 care for your pet! I offer in-home pet sitting where I follow your pet’s usual schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed—all while keeping your home secure and tidy
About: I’m a dog lover with one very sweet pup, Goose. I recently lost my beloved pittie, DJ, and while I’m not ready to bring a second dog into my family full-time just yet, I do miss having a second set of paws in the house. That’s why I started Rover. It felt like a beautiful way to share my home, help another family, and bring some joy back into my daily routine. I work from home, so your dog will have constant company, plenty of attention, and a peaceful, structured environment. Goose and I do two walks a day (morning and evening, when it’s not too hot!) around the quiet pond in my neighborhood. I have a spacious house with lots of room to play, sunbathe, and snooze. And yes, the dogs are absolutely allowed on the couch, the bed, and pretty much wherever they feel comfy. My backyard isn’t fully fenced, but I use long 20-foot staked leashes so the dogs can safely run, lounge, and soak up the sun while I hang out with them outside. What sets me apart? I really love dogs. Like, more than most humans. I treat every dog like my own, with gentleness, attention, and a deep respect for their routines, quirks, and needs. Goose is the ultimate host: calm, kind, and respectful with every pup he meets. Whether your dog needs space, playtime, meds, or just someone to sit with them while they nap, I’m here for it! Pet care is part of my everyday routine. I work from home, so your pup will have constant company, whether they want to play, nap nearby, or just follow me around like the world’s cutest coworker. Goose and I do two walks a day (morning and evening) around the pond in my neighborhood. During the day, I hang outside with the dogs for short breaks using 20-foot staked leashes so they can safely sniff, sunbathe, and stretch their legs. Inside, my home is peaceful, spacious, and fully dog-friendly. Couches, beds, and sunny windows are all fair game. I don’t use a crate by default, but if that’s part of your dog’s routine, I’m happy to include it — just bring theirs along. Your pup will be treated like one of my own. Loved, safe, and never left alone for long. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only host one dog at a time (or one family of dogs), so your pup will never be overwhelmed or competing for attention. If it’s your first time booking with me, I like to schedule a quick meet-and-greet to make sure your dog and Goose get along. He’s incredibly sweet and respectful, but I want everyone to feel safe and comfortable before a stay. I supervise all outdoor time. My yard isn’t fenced, but I use 20-foot staked leashes so the dogs can safely lounge and sniff while I’m outside with them. Inside, it’s a calm, cozy, dog-friendly home. Couches, beds, and sunny spots are all fair game. I’ll keep your pup’s routine consistent: feeding schedules, crate time (if needed, just bring yours), and any medication they need. Whatever they’re used to, I’ll stick to it. You’ll get regular updates and plenty of cute photos, and your dog will be treated like one of my own.

About: I have had a furry friend in my life in some form or another since I was very young. I have experience with both more reactive and friendly breeds and have no preference on the kinds I work with. I use patience and understanding to make them feel safe. I worked professionally as a dog walker and pet sitter for two years to multiple dogs and can bring love and affection to any animals in my care. I am responsible, punctual and a great communicator and can be an asset in caring for your dog or other animals while you are away or on a regular basis for walks. I work 4 nights a week from 3pm-11pm downtown. I am not opposed to early morning visits or late nights visits if required and am available for overnights. I do a walkthrough with owners of exact locations for all your pets, learn their quirks, the things they love and don’t like and what might come up during my stay with them.

I focus on mental stimulation with interactive toys and training exercises, reinforcing positive behavior. Cleanliness is also essential; I maintain a tidy space for them and provide regular grooming. Above all, I foster a nurturing atmosphere, filled with cuddles and affection, ensuring my pets feel secure and happy.
About: I have always had dogs in my house since I was born and have taken care of many different breeds and sizes. I have experience with medical needs, hyper active, and nervous dogs as well but please make me aware of any special needs before booking. I currently work from home full time with a flexible schedule. I am able to provide as much attention as they need. I have a privacy fenced backyard and love to go for multiple daily walks to get outside. I am able to follow whatever pet care instructions you provide. My husband and I live together in a house so when he’s not at work your pet will get double the lovings.
About: I want to be a veterinarian, I’ve known that since I was a little girl. I am available whenever needed throughout the week. I’m more than happy to spend the night with your dog(s). I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and love meeting and playing with new furry friends. If given the chance to care for your pet I will treat them like one of my own. To me and my family dogs and cats aren’t just pets, they’re family, and I’d love to add more to it. I am a full-time manager at one of the local fast food restaurants. My schedule varies, but it’s very flexible to meet your pets needs. Besides sticking into the schedule given to me I will usually do whatever your pet asks me to do as long as they’re within your parameters. I’ve had some very demanding clients in the past so having a strong willed pet is not new to me.
About: I’ve spent my whole life living with and caring for all sorts of animals! I have lots of experience with special needs animals and giving them medications! I’ve worked with animals all sorts of ages and with many different personalities! I’m currently a barista and can typically stop by in the early mornings before work and spend my afternoons/nights caring for your furry friends! I have 2 cats of my own and I do prefer staying with them throughout the night but can make arrangements if needed! Both of my kitties are very spoiled and get lots of love and attention. We love to cuddle and play, and they always get their meds right on time! They get fed twice a day and have routine vet visits so I know they’re in good health and up to date on all vaccines! My cats are 15 and 4 and they mean the absolute world to me.
About: I have experience working at a dog daycare and boarding facility, giving medication, working with puppies, and almost every breed. I also enjoy fostering animals in need! Though I am a full time college student, I am flexible through out the week and weekends. We can definitely work out a schedule that works! I have 2 dogs and 1 cat at home, I give them lots of cuddles and love just like I would for your fur babies.
About: I have had a lot of experience taking care of dogs since I started my own "business" when I was 7, walking and pet-sitting for people around my neighborhood. I had 3 dogs and 3 cats growing up. Recently I'm most often just filling in for family friends on stays away. I have taken care of a handful of senior dogs and have a good understanding of their behaviors. I like to be outside and moving, so I happily will take your dog(s) out or on frequent or long walks. I will be available 7 days of the week, minus miscellaneous appointments and such. I am more than comfortable with overnight stays, walks, and drop ins, and multiple day sitting. My roommate is allergic to dander so I will be unable to bring pets into my home. I take notes very seriously for pets that need that extra care/the specifics. I will happily be able to walk, feed, play, let out and crate dogs as needed.

“Andrew was great with communicating, ensured Rupert was safe and comfortable, and got lots of walks! He also sent update photos so I knew Rupert was enjoying himself and administered Rupert’s daily medications without a hitch! 10/10 would recommend!”
“Haley and her sweet daughter entertained my puppy really well during a short stay. He was on the last two days of his neutering care and she still accepted the job. He was fine at pickup as well. I appreciated the frequent communication and photos. And Haley took the time to find an item at the grocery store that he might like since he was being a picky eater and reviewed it with me. I had peace of mind during my work retreat in knowing that my puppy was in great hands.”
“Amy was awesome! It was my first time leaving Bailey with anyone other than family. I expected to be nervous but I felt very confident and at ease, especially when Amy sent me photos and videos of Bailey hanging out with her and her family. Bailey did great and I will definitely be calling Amy again when I need a sitter!”
“Olivia took such good care of Bernard! She was very communicative and kept us updated with photos. She has a great fenced in yard… allows for dogs to be active!!! Would def recommend.”
“Carey was literally amazing, I am so happy she was able to take my dogs for a night on a day of request. Seriously so sweet with the sweetest kids that played and loved on my pups for a night. No complaints and so happy to have found her!!!”
“Bella was immediately comfortable with Jennifer, and Jennifer was equally at ease with our large dog. Jennifer continually sent updates and pictures during our time away, making our time more relaxed. It was clear that Bella had a good time. Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of our baby!”
“This was my first time with Allie. She did wonderful with my dog. I will definitely bring her back again. She tells you everything that’s going on day and day out and when you pick her up. Also, she sends you pictures of dog while your on vacation or wherever you’re at Allie was awesome with my dog”
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would!! Tasha is amazing!! She was able to watch my babies last minute when another sitter fell through. I immediately felt comfortable leaving my babies with her after a stressful experience. She sent lots of pictures and was so caring and sweet to my babies! I can’t thank her enough!! Looking forward to the next time! I would HIGHLY recommend her!!!”
“Steven and family took great care of our pup. They sent pictures everyday which was much appreciated. We felt comfortable leaving our dog there which made our vacation much more enjoyable. Will definitely use Steven again!”
About: You can trust me to take excellent care of your pet! As well as owning my own pets most of my life (dogs, cats, ferret, birds, rabbits, etc.), I also have a Bachelor of Science degree in pre-veterinary medicine. I have pet-sat for several friends and clients, volunteered at shelters, worked at veterinary clinics, boarding facilities, and for a professional dog walking company. You can rest easy as your pet will be safe in my care. I follow directions well and get the details right! Why I love dog walking and sitting: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. My first dog, Chief, helped raise me! Since then, I have owned a dog most of my life. Some have called me the "dog-whisperer". I have a pretty good perception of dogs and connect very easily with most. My last dog, Wendell, was a 150 lb. mastiff whom I adopted when he was 4.5 years old. He had never been socialized and was scared of most people, so in the six years we were together, I gained a lot of first-hand experience working through behavioral issues in a very large and strong breed. Our current dog is Lucy, a happy-go-lucky bull terrier who is deaf. She loves every living being! I’m also comfortable taking care of cats and other pets. My experience administering medication: I've given lots of oral meds and various ointments, eye drops, ear drops, etc. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m typically available any day of the week and can do early mornings and late evenings if needed. Let me know your needs and I will do my best to accommodate! We have a secure, fenced yard, a doggie door, and a covered back patio with doggie beds perfect for lounging in the sun or shade. We also have a friendly bull terrier who will happily keep your dog company! We can easily keep your dog in a separate room while we are away from the house if you prefer. Lucy’s dad/my significant other, Pedro, also lives here and also loves animals.
“Clare was awesome! She took such great care of my pup and kept me updated with lots of photos. She made sure my dog got plenty of walks and was really attentive to her needs and food preferences. Highly recommend!”
“Judging from our dog's demeanor before and after her stay (and the photos), Dottie felt very comfortable staying with Hunter. -- like staying with a known relative. I would highly recommend Hunter to watch anyone's pet. - Michael”
“Cosette took amazing care of our two dogs! It was easy to see that they were well-loved and felt at home. They came home content and happy. I think they were even sad to leave Cosette and her family. They enjoyed the walks and playing ball. They received all the affection they needed and more. While we were away, we received messages and videos, and Cosette was always quick to respond. This was our first time using Rover and the whole experience was great! I would definitely use Cosette again!”
“Josephine was very accomodating for our last minute dogsitting needs Thanksgiving weekend. She took great care of Lucy who loved playing with Roxy! We appreciate her patience and love she gave our anxious dog.”
About: I’ve had animals since I was a kid and always enjoyed taking care of them! It’s very rewarding for me. In my early 20s I was a dog trainer I’m a stay at home dad. We have a 10 and a 5 year old. I take walks throughout the day and between my wife someone is always home unless we are taking the kids somewhere. If they like the car and the park I can even take them with me! I walk a lot and am outside with my kids throughout the day. My kids love dogs so they will be showered with love and cuddles (if they enjoy that).
“Raquel was amazing!! I was looking for a new dog sitter since we moved and so glad I found her! If you’re looking for a responsive, loving dog sitter with a lovely, clean home and big yard, look no further! She made me feel so comfortable and confident that her and her family would take great care of our dog Rocky.”
“Amazing caregiver for our sweet Oscar. He requires a lot of love and Jay was definitely up for the challenge. Great communication and flexibility. Definitely recommend!”
