“Robert was great! My dogs were tired and happy when picked up. Robert sent updates with photos and confirmed meal times. I had some things pop up that made my drop off/pick up time different than originally planned and Robert was very accommodating and easy to coordinate with. I'll use Robert again next time I'm in the Wilmington/CB area!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and Kate was the perfect fit for our dog Rio! She kept us posted while we were on vacation with pics and videos of the dogs playing, relaxing and exercising! Rio enjoyed his vacation as much as we did!”
“Took care of Lupe on a 14 day trip. Lupe is a little older and a wheaten terrier. Sometimes with an older dog and a little terrier in her, she could be a little quirky. But Taylor and his family accommodated Lupe very nicely and I am very grateful to have had their service and allowed their home for Lupe to stay as I had to travel for work.”
“Ollie had a great stay with Yueqian and her family. I knew how great a time Ollie had when I saw how much she didn’t want to go home with me. Will definitely trust Yueqian again with Ollie in the future.”
“Erin was a great sitter! She provided lots of updates and my cattle dog had lots of fun running around with her golden retriever in their huge fenced yard. Would definitely use Erin again in the future!”
“Stephanie was very kind, communicated every day, and treated my dog well. She took my dog on long walks, sent pics, and cared for my dog while I was gone. I will definitely book with Stephanie again!”
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life. Growing up, our family always had dogs and cats, and as an adult, I’ve had the privilege of caring for two blind rescue dogs, as well as my current lovable 16-pound Aussiedoodle, Zoey. Zoey lives with me and gets along well with other dogs. For the past 2½ years, I’ve owned and operated a dog-walking and cat-care business, caring for a variety of neighborhood pets. My experience includes three 19-year-old cats, two medium and large Doodles, a Dachshund I’ve cared for since he was just 10 weeks old, and dogs of many different mixed breeds, ages, and personalities. My approach is to always let the animal lead. Both of my rescue dogs came from very difficult circumstances, and I learned how important patience, trust, and a sense of safety are. Rather than expecting an animal to immediately feel comfortable with me, I give them the time and space they need to open up on their own. With a calm, loving, and safe environment, that trust usually begins to develop naturally. I’m especially comfortable with animals who may be shy, fearful, cautious, or unsure of strangers. I take a very gentle approach, allowing them to get to know me at their own pace. Once they feel safe and comfortable, that’s when the magic unfolds! I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, whether that means sleeping in a crate at night or curling up on the bed. I live in a first-floor apartment facing a nice open green space, which makes it easy to provide frequent potty breaks and neighborhood walks. With pet-parent permission, it’s my norm to send daily updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’m also comfortable administering medications and handling foods that require refrigeration or freezing. I watch dogs who are 1-25 lbs. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s individual routine and needs. Just let me know what works best for you and your pet! I am currently retired so I am home most of the day/night. I live with my 16 lb non-shedding Aussie doogle dog, Zoey. I may step out to run errands, go to an appointment, other, but am otherwise at home. I allow dogs to sleep on my bed or stay in a crate at night, per pet parents wishes. If you are traveling and require a pick up after 6 pm just let me know so we can work something out. I live in an apartment on the first floor, so I have easy access to let dogs out for potty breaks as I face an open green space. I live in a safe community with plenty of sidewalks and street lighting. I often walk my dog clients in the morning when it is cool outside, so they can get adequate exercise. On rainy days, I like to occupy your pet with tug-o-war, or a treat-kong, or playing with other toys. Please feel free to bring your dog's favorite toys.
“Olivia and Andrew were great! Olivia sent photos of Cora every day while we were away. She had a nice visit with them. We’ve definitely booking with them again!”
“Clare is wonderful! She has such an adorable and sweet family She sent lots of pictures and updates. I couldn’t have asked for a better fit to care of our pup while we traveled.”
“Samantha and her family were the best! They took such great care of Finn, he came home a very tired, happy boy. She was very quick to respond and provided daily updates with pictures while I was away. I will absolutely use this family again as a sitter. They are so trusting and I will be recommending them to all of my friends :)”
“There aren't enough good things to say about Andy. I very rarely board my dog, but after a week with him she might as well have been with me. He took peach in like a dog of his own and I wouldn't hesitate to give him a call! If give 6 stars if I could!”
“I have an anxious small dog and Helena was absolutely wonderful and gave me great peace of mind while I left him for 4 days. She gave frequent updates and photos so I knew he was doing well. I will definitely be using her from now on anytime I need someone to watch my little guy!”
“Mia was amazing with my anxious dog Reya! She was very communicative, took great care of her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would recommend Mia to anyone!”
“We had a great experience with Lauren caring for our small dog. Very communicative, and our dog was the same at pickup as dropoff and our dog was exhausted which is usually a good sign that she enjoyed her stay.”
“Donna took care of our dog as if he were her own! She took the time to learn all about his habits and gave him all the attention he needed. I could tell he was so comfortable at her house and well-loved. I really appreciated the photo and update after the first day so we k ew he was happy & doing well. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Allie is the best!! I’m so glad I found her so I don’t have to stress the entire time I’m away. My girl hates the boarding place but I usually don’t have another option and she won’t look at me for a week afterwards. After being with Allie she’s not only looking at me she gave me hugs so I know she approves 😂”
“Sue-Ling was amazing with my pup. It was his first time ever being boarded away from me and she kept me updated on him and how he was doing. She was very attentive. I will be booking with her again!”
“Kaylah was awesome. She sent photos of our dog while we were on vacation and let us know Hattie was doing great. We appreciated the great communication from her as it calmed our nerves as this was the first time we had boarded Hattie. She has a big yard and lots of toys for the dogs to play with. We appreciated everything she did and will board Hattie with her again”

About: Hello! I have grown up with more pets than people in my household, and that has served me well. I am capable of handling multiple dogs on walks (there’s nothing more comical than juggling multiple leashes) and caring for both cats and dogs. I was an assistant in therapy dog training and puppy training for four years (Teamworks in Raleigh), and this has provided me with cognitive and behavioral insight into dogs. I also have taken care of dogs around my neighborhood growing up. My philosophy with pets is that they make the owner feel better and vice versa. I promise to take care of your pets as I would my own: with love, respect, and as much exercise as they deserve. I look forward to working with you. I work full time remotely, so have flexibility to take care of your pet’s needs. My weekend availability varies but my calendar will be up to date. I will take care of your pet in your home, where they will be most comfortable. I am also available for drop-ins, or walks while you are at work, or other non-stay related activities.
“Shyloh is so great! I would definitely have her watch my fur babies again, I had no worries at all leaving them with her. She was prompt and made sure they were well cared for! She even made sure their dishes were cleaned for when we got home.”
“McKenna dis a great job caring for my 3 cats while we were away. She visited twice each day and provided medication to one of my cats. They were very relaxed and happy when we got home”

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs—from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups—for over 15 years. I treat every animal like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I understand how to adjust care based on their age and needs. I prioritize communication so you always know what’s going on, to make this as stress free as possible! I am a graduate student in school full-time, but my weekdays and weekends are very flexible. Please reach out to me with any special schedule requests! I am very clean and will leave your house spotless if caring overnight for your pet.

About: Caring for animals is more than just a job for me it’s a genuine passion. I have spent years caring for cats, both my own and strays in my community.

“Stephanie went above and beyond when watching my cat over the holiday! She left detailed notes and lots of pictures. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a worry free vacation!”
“Rebecca was wonderful with our cat Constantine. When Constantine was shy she helped her come out of hiding and explore her surroundings. Rebecca made sure Constantine felt safe in her home and provided her loving care while we were away.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was about 5 or 6 ! To neighborhood cats to friend cats . I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is the level of attention and care I give each cat as an individual. I take the time to learn their personality, routines, and what makes them comfortable, since cats can be very particular about their environment and people. I’m patient with shy cats, playful with energetic ones, and always make sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their cat is being well cared for. My goal is to make every cat feel like they’re still in their normal routine and getting the same love and attention they would from their owner
About: I’ve owned and cared for cats for decades. I love cat’s personalities and playtime. I am very comfortable with giving them all the love and support they need including meds, snuggles and keeping their areas neat & clean.
“Samatha was awesome. She took great care of our cat when we were away and kept us informed. We never had any concerns our cat was not getting love and affection every day. I highly recommend.”
“So easy to communicate with and she sent us adorable photos and video of our kitty. We are so grateful she was able to come out on Christmas morning to feed and snuggle with Tabitha. Thank you!”
“Mel was such a treasure to have! She was so good with my special needs cats and they warmed up to her with ease! I would highly recommend using her and would have no problem booking her again!”
“Nolan was on time and communicative throughout the whole process including scheduling, confirming how to access the house and the actual drop-in. I was notified when he arrived, he sent multiple pictures and I was notified when he was leaving. I asked Nolan to give Alfie some treats when he left to keep him calm, and all went well and I got to enjoy my day away without having to worry about Alfie at all.”
“Allie was great with our lab. She was very accommodating with our schedule and spent an hour walking and hanging out with Tilly while we were out. We highly recommend Allie if you are in the Carolina Beach area!”

“Jess was great at making me feel comfortable prior to our first doggy day care day with her. She offered a site visit, but I chose to do a video call instead for ease of my schedule. Through talking to her I instantly knew she would be a great fit for my dog. Upon drop off, she welcomed me in so I could see where Norton would be for the day. She sent several updates with pictures throughout the day. Norton seemed to have a good time and felt relaxed in her home. Thank you Jess for the peace of mind taking care of my furbaby while we did a day trip. We will definitely use Jess again.”

About: I have grown up having multiple dogs throughout my entire life and know how important it is to find someone reliable and trusting with a fur family member. I have dog and cat sitting experience starting from 13 years old to now being an adult! I’ve had multiple experiences with many sizes and breeds of dogs. I am also more than happy to do a brief meet and greet to see if it’s a good fit! I also think it’s helpful (in my experience) to receive pictures of your pet(s) while away - that’s always helped me, so I tend to do the same and send updates and pictures to the families of the dog/cat as well. I currently work from home and have flexibility throughout the day. I already have walks planned into my day and live in a neighborhood that’s easily walkable! I have a fenced in yard if your dog prefers staying outdoors or going out for potty breaks. I also have the space to crate if needed.
“Melody was so sweet! My dog Roscoe had the best time with her and her dog, so much that he couldn’t stop playing the whole time he was there! She was so considerate and thoughtful! She gave him a bath (he was all dirty from the beach) and a cute little goodie bag when we left! So helpful to have him clean on our drive home! We are from out of town but definitely will be contacting her again when we need a sitter in Wilmington and will refer my friends to her! Worth every penny! Thank you!!”
“Julia is the BEST!! She took amazing care of my pup, who needed meds regularly and to be watched closely from a recent surgery. I couldn’t have asked for better care and my baby comes home so incredibly happy!! Thank you Julia, you will be Romos home away from home forever!”
“This was our first ever Rover experience and we’re so glad we chose Valerie to watch Winnie so we could do some sightseeing. She was so quick to reply, so flexible with times and above all, so so wonderful w Winnie. So much playing in a fenced yard snd cuddling in the AC—I’m sure coming back to us was a disappointment for Winnie!! I wish there was a choice for 10 stars because that’s what she is.”

We want to encourage good behavior by following the training protocols that your animal has had, and also encouraging your pet to learn new things if they desire to.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover who will treat your pets like family. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for! I have a 13 year old bulldog, who is extremely sweet and loves being with other animals. I’m a stay at home mom so I have a lot of flexibility. I have a fenced in back yard with a pool. I am a loving stay at home mom to a 2 year old and 13 year old bulldog. My son goes to school 9-1pm, which I’m completely free without my child for extra fun pet activities. I am very attentive to all pets and know they are like our babies. They need the care, comfort, and love that their owners give when they are away.
About: I have always had a dog or dogs in my life and have always been a active pet owner. I live a block from two different walking trails, and five blocks from the beach, I love walking so hopefully your pup does too. I understand the needs of animals and have worked jobs/volunteered where animal welfare was a top priority. I am also enrolled in a dog training program at UNCW and volunteer working with puppies. When an animal is in my care it’s welfare will be my top priority meaning making sure your pet is safe, secure, fed on their normal schedule, have had adequate exercise for their activity level and whatever other needs your pet requires. I currently have Wednesday and Friday mornings off so I can take your dog on morning walks those days. And I have mostly all Evenings open after 6 for a night walk. I live by two walking trails and close to the beach if your dog likes the beach it’s a quick drive I am used to walking morning and night that has always been my dog walk schedule and distance is always depended on dogs fitness level
About: I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals and have been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs, cats, rabbits, lizards, fish, and other animals has given me a strong understanding of their unique needs, behaviors, and personalities. As an experienced pet sitter, I understand how important it is to provide pets with a safe, comfortable, and stress free environment while their owners are away. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, maintaining routines, or simply offering companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s individual needs and personality to ensure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for. I am currently in online college working towards a degree in environmental science. Pet sitting is a good way for me to stay focused on school while still be able to work. In addition to caring for pets, I take pride in being clean, organized, and reliable. If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat your space with the utmost respect and ensure it is clean and tidy when you return.
About: I have grown up having multiple dogs throughout my entire life and know how important it is to find someone reliable and trusting with a fur family member. I have dog and cat sitting experience starting from 13 years old to now being an adult! I’ve had multiple experiences with many sizes and breeds of dogs. I am also more than happy to do a brief meet and greet to see if it’s a good fit! I also think it’s helpful (in my experience) to receive pictures of your pet(s) while away - that’s always helped me, so I tend to do the same and send updates and pictures to the families of the dog/cat as well. I currently work from home and have flexibility throughout the day. I already have walks planned into my day and live in a neighborhood that’s easily walkable! I have a fenced in yard if your dog prefers staying outdoors or going out for potty breaks. I also have the space to crate if needed.
About: I've been surrounded by cats and dogs for most of my life and genuinely love spending time with animals. I'm a part-time RN, full-time graduate student at UNC Wilmington, and a full-time dog mom to my sweet girl, Majerle, who is the absolute sweetest bean. I joined Rover as a way to earn a little supplemental income while doing something that brings me joy. Spending time with pets gets me outside, keeps me active, and is one of my favorite ways to recharge from work and school. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups. I frequently pet sit for friends and family, including English and French Bulldogs, so I'm familiar with breeds that may need a little extra attention and care. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and to treat your pets like they're my own family. I'm a part-time Registered Nurse and a full-time graduate student at UNC Wilmington. Rover is my fun side gig because I genuinely love animals and enjoy any excuse to get outside, move my body, and spend time with furry friends. My schedule varies week to week, but I keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to. As both a nurse and a dog mom, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I have a dog of my own, Majerle, and she's the sweetest bean, so I understand that pets are family. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or taking them out for walks, I'll treat them with the same patience, attention, and love that I'd want for my own dog. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to provide updates while you're away.

“Robert was great! My dogs were tired and happy when picked up. Robert sent updates with photos and confirmed meal times. I had some things pop up that made my drop off/pick up time different than originally planned and Robert was very accommodating and easy to coordinate with. I'll use Robert again next time I'm in the Wilmington/CB area!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and Kate was the perfect fit for our dog Rio! She kept us posted while we were on vacation with pics and videos of the dogs playing, relaxing and exercising! Rio enjoyed his vacation as much as we did!”
“Ollie had a great stay with Yueqian and her family. I knew how great a time Ollie had when I saw how much she didn’t want to go home with me. Will definitely trust Yueqian again with Ollie in the future.”
“Erin was a great sitter! She provided lots of updates and my cattle dog had lots of fun running around with her golden retriever in their huge fenced yard. Would definitely use Erin again in the future!”
“Stephanie was very kind, communicated every day, and treated my dog well. She took my dog on long walks, sent pics, and cared for my dog while I was gone. I will definitely book with Stephanie again!”
“Olivia and Andrew were great! Olivia sent photos of Cora every day while we were away. She had a nice visit with them. We’ve definitely booking with them again!”
“Clare is wonderful! She has such an adorable and sweet family She sent lots of pictures and updates. I couldn’t have asked for a better fit to care of our pup while we traveled.”
“Samantha and her family were the best! They took such great care of Finn, he came home a very tired, happy boy. She was very quick to respond and provided daily updates with pictures while I was away. I will absolutely use this family again as a sitter. They are so trusting and I will be recommending them to all of my friends :)”
“There aren't enough good things to say about Andy. I very rarely board my dog, but after a week with him she might as well have been with me. He took peach in like a dog of his own and I wouldn't hesitate to give him a call! If give 6 stars if I could!”
“Mia was amazing with my anxious dog Reya! She was very communicative, took great care of her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would recommend Mia to anyone!”
“We had a great experience with Lauren caring for our small dog. Very communicative, and our dog was the same at pickup as dropoff and our dog was exhausted which is usually a good sign that she enjoyed her stay.”
“Allie is the best!! I’m so glad I found her so I don’t have to stress the entire time I’m away. My girl hates the boarding place but I usually don’t have another option and she won’t look at me for a week afterwards. After being with Allie she’s not only looking at me she gave me hugs so I know she approves 😂”
“Kaylah was awesome. She sent photos of our dog while we were on vacation and let us know Hattie was doing great. We appreciated the great communication from her as it calmed our nerves as this was the first time we had boarded Hattie. She has a big yard and lots of toys for the dogs to play with. We appreciated everything she did and will board Hattie with her again”
“Meagan and her family were wonderful with my girl, Sookie! Sookie needs to be around confident dogs and Maegan's two were exactly that. From the first moment we met, I knew that "we had a match" for my dog. All the pictures and updates from Maegan were reassuring and it was clear to see that things were going very well. She clearly loves all dogs and is very attentive and in tune with their moods and actions. Her home and fenced yard were secure, safe, comfortable and very welcoming. My one concern going into this was that Maegan has small children and my dog hasn't been around many. But I expressed my unnecessary concern and learned that her kids are as professional, sensitive and loving of dogs as their parents. Five stars doesn't seem like enough!”
“Haley was absolutely amazing! My old boy has some anxiety issues and Haley provided a comfortable and calm environment for him. He’s never stayed at someone else’s house before so I was pleasantly surprised at how well he did. I highly recommend booking a stay with Haley!”
“Walker has some unexpected challenges while staying with Hilary and we felt that she navigated them well and also communicated them clearly. You don’t know what you don’t know sometimes! Our dog got plenty of exercise and playtime while there even though he had to stay crated more than usual. We were very pleased with Hilary!”
About: Growing up we had both dogs and cats in the house. As soon as I had an apartment that allowed dogs, I adopted my sweet and sassy pup snoopy. Over the years his mobility declined and I gained insight in how to care for an elderly pup including administering shots, and oral medication. Last year my fiancé and I adopted our sweet girl Betty. She tested us as a puppy, and provided an opportunity to learn about training a dog with a different personality from my first pup. I work as an RN Monday- Thursday and my fiancé works from home Monday- Friday. We live in a first floor apartment with a walk out patio. Our complex also has a dog park and plenty of space for long walks. We are a nonsmoking home with no children; just Betty and she is very friendly with other dogs. I recently relocated to the Cary area for work, but my new job does not start until mid October! Prior to the move, I was a full time student and working on Rover. My schedule is pretty open to care for your pets! I am familiar with different harnesses and the importance of leashing dogs when out and about. My apartment has several fenced dog areas and lots of outdoor walking space!
