“Stephanie did an amazing job with our pup, Fynn. He’s is a quirky guy and Stephanie managed his quirks wonderfully. I could tell when I picked Fynn up that he loves Stephanie and her fiancé, Jared. We already have her lined up for Fynn’s next stay!”


“Our girls love being with Kate, her husband Quinn, and her dog Lucy. We received multiple pictures of them going on long walks and runs off leash in a safe environment, zonked out on the floor of the living room after a day of play, and getting love and pets from Quinn. We feel very comfortable having our two stay with Kate and would recommend it to all.”
“I could tell how much Aspen (Mini Aussie, 4) really enjoyed his 2 night stay with Robert. Aspen was immediately comfortable around Robert and his very well behaved King Charles dogs. The yard was fantastic as it allowed for him to play 10/10”

“I have never left my dog with anyone other than friends before, so I was really nervous. I brought Finn to Helena's to meet before our vacation, and he took to her immediately. She sent me photos of him every day we were gone, and it made me so happy to see how much they were enjoying each other! He had so much fun that he barely got excited to see me when I picked him up! LOL! Is there a better compliment from a dog? Helena is fabulous and we will be using her 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!”

“Kim and her family were wonderful. They treated Jack like family. He got lots of love and attention. She sent daily photos and communicated in a timely manner. We highly recommend her and will bring Jack back again.”

“Angela is the best! Our Maggie was well cared for in Angela's home for a week. Angela's daily updates & pictures kept us worry free. We are so happy with the care that Maggie received that we have already booked Angela again. We highly recommend Angela for any pet sitting needs!”


“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!”

“Polly loves her time with Tasha and her wonderful family. She likes playing in the big, fenced-in, back yard and playing with other pups and humans during her stay. I love getting the frequent updates and pictures while I am away. I know Polly is taken well care of and loved by Tasha and her family. I recommend 100%.”

“Haley is so wonderful and took great care of Charlie! Appreciate her flexibility with logistics and the sweet updates she sent of Charlie loving life with her new little friend 💛”

“Desi was absolutely great! My Mojo had a blast playing with doggy friends and he got plenty of exercise and play time ? I got update pictures and videos from Desi and when I picked Mojo up he acted just like he did when I dropped him off ? For sure recommend! And will for sure be using Desi as a puppysitter in the future!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Extremely over protective of my pup Dzil, Kaylah and her family took great care of her. She sent photos while I was away made me feel comfortable. One word to sum up her stay.....Excellent!”

“Amy was great with communication and sending pics! It was very clear the dogs were well cared for. I appreciated her flexibility in terms of timing. (As we were road tripping with young children it was hard to guess exact drop off and pick up times.) If we are in the area again we will definitely book with Amy again! Thank you!”

“Donna and Calvin were fantastic hosts! I knew my older Pomeranian was in great hands and I didn’t have to worry about him while I was away. Donna sent regular pictures and updates. He went on daily walks, and was given special attention with food because he doesn’t eat right away like other dogs. I highly recommend Donna and Calvin!”


“Carey was wonderful with Jager! She was extremely responsive, friendly, and kept me well updated with photos throughout his stay. It was clear her whole family showered my fur baby with love. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!”

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.

“Sarah was wonderful to our kitties and sent us pictures of all three. She also went back over when we had an unexpected package arrive. Thank you Sarah for taking such good care of our fur babies.”

“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: I grew up surrounded by animals. I have taken care of horses, cats, dogs, ducks and chickens. Now, I am excited to take care of your fur-babies! I am available Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday before 8:30 and after 3:30. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I am available all day and night. i am available to come to your home and provide a loving, active and safe environment. If your fur-baby needs medication, I am very comfortable administering medicine.

“I highly recommend Jo! I really appreciated that we were able to meet in advance to have Jo meet our cat, Pumpkin, and walk her through his routine, his favorite toys, etc. She immediately connected with him and with 3 cats of her own, we felt she would be a great fit. When it came time for our vacation, she was super responsive and provided regular updates throughout her visits. Pumpkin looked SO happy playing with her in the photos and we felt so much more relaxed being able to know Pumpkin was in great hands. We will definitely use Jo again!”


“Stephanie did a great job checking on my cats. She even discovered one of the water fountains stopped working and troubleshot it until it worked again. Now that’s service! We came home to happy, well taken care of cats.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have always been actively involved in their care back home. While in college, I’ve also helped care for pets for friends and others, including walking, feeding, and pet sitting. I’m comfortable with all types of pets and always focus on keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for!! As a college student home for the summer, I have almost completely open availability to dedicate to pet care each day. I'll be more than happy to dedicate my days to waking, feeding, and keeping your pet company, as well as anything in-between thats required. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keeping that familiarity in their own home. The home will stay up to par while doing all my pet care with remembering to keep you updated as much as you need.

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

“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!”


“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.”


About: While I love dogs, my roommate and I have a special place in our hearts for cats. We’ve been fostering kittens consistently for the past 8 months and found 4 babies their forever homes!!

About: Hi! My name is Delia, I’ve always taken care and watched after cats and other animals as a side huddle since I was old enough to be trusted. I recently just stopped worked for K9 Pet Luxury Hotel and Resort where I supervised 30+ dogs at a time of all sizes and breeds. I’ve had two family cats and am comfortable around mostly any animal. I also frequently volunteer at SPCA in Raleigh, where they have several cats at a time in the shelter. I consider myself extremely trustworthy, calm, and above all a cat lover!
About: Did you know walking, caring for and loving on a pet can spark creativity? I am a writer with a lifetime of pet ownership who would be honored to take care of your fur babies (and find some inspiration in the process!). I have just returned to the corporate world (it’s a fully remote role) from a traveling sabbatical writing several passion projects. My schedule is still quite flexible and my ability to travel to you quite easy. I understand maintaining your pet’s routine while you’re away is essential to minimizing their anxiety (and yours!). I have a large SUV if your dogs require transportation (like a trip to a favorite dog park or have a regularly scheduled play date or grooming appointment).
“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.”

“Jerry was absolutely amazing! My booking was pretty last minute because I was so scrambled that weekend, but Jerry was able to pull through and helped me so much! Bud looked like he had an absolute blast with Jerry and Bud got taken on so many new adventures which he looked like he absolutely loved. Jerry was even able to pick up Bud for me which saved me so much time that morning and gave him a bath for me before I went to go pick up Bud later that day! Jerry is literally so amazing and I will definitely book with him again in the future!”

The rooms are solid wood so no problem if a dog has an indoor accident . I am retired and spend most of my time at home so I welcome a dog as very nice company

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.

“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!!”

“No was great! She promptly arrived each day and gave Romeo a fun little walk in the neighborhood and lunch. She even hung out with him after the walk in the backyard while he enjoyed some sunshine.

We currently provide boarding care for this area when we visit the mountain house, a little about our farm - I own a 21 acre farm in Ferguson, NC. Centrally located between Wilkesboro and Boone. We have a huge mountainous terrain fenced with access to the house and a large gated wrap around porch. Currently our full time home is in Carolina Beach and we have the best biggest back fenced in yard, with a pet friendly deck and cozy inside space, if your dog is boarded at our home, you can expect for the dog to have contact with other dogs. I’ve owned many dogs in my life, i.e. Huskies, Newfoundland’s, Labs, Goldens, Havanese, Blue healers, Doberman pinchers, and loving mutts! I’ve sled and biked and hiked with dogs, trained dogs, and I am very comfortable around all animals. I have two daughters, (my oldest is in college) and an animal loving partner, Spencer, who also has a rover site, so if I’m not available he may be, and we are each others emergency contact in case something were ever to happen., They all love to play fetch, frisbee and agility and trick training. We have a lot of fun with our furry friends and can offer an abundant amount of love, care, space and time for your fur babies! We like to call ourselves the WildOnes and we can’t wait to hear from you and hopefully spend special time with your furry family! I’m a full time rover sitter and animal caregiver. I’m available for full time care in your home or mine, with an occasional need for errands or special events. By following your everyday guidelines, and mimicking what your daily routine is, this allows a great amount of security to you and your animal. We always are sure to leash animals when they are not in the fenced area at your home. 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.

“Stephanie did an amazing job with our pup, Fynn. He’s is a quirky guy and Stephanie managed his quirks wonderfully. I could tell when I picked Fynn up that he loves Stephanie and her fiancé, Jared. We already have her lined up for Fynn’s next stay!”


“Our girls love being with Kate, her husband Quinn, and her dog Lucy. We received multiple pictures of them going on long walks and runs off leash in a safe environment, zonked out on the floor of the living room after a day of play, and getting love and pets from Quinn. We feel very comfortable having our two stay with Kate and would recommend it to all.”
“I could tell how much Aspen (Mini Aussie, 4) really enjoyed his 2 night stay with Robert. Aspen was immediately comfortable around Robert and his very well behaved King Charles dogs. The yard was fantastic as it allowed for him to play 10/10”

“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!”

“Polly loves her time with Tasha and her wonderful family. She likes playing in the big, fenced-in, back yard and playing with other pups and humans during her stay. I love getting the frequent updates and pictures while I am away. I know Polly is taken well care of and loved by Tasha and her family. I recommend 100%.”

“Desi was absolutely great! My Mojo had a blast playing with doggy friends and he got plenty of exercise and play time ? I got update pictures and videos from Desi and when I picked Mojo up he acted just like he did when I dropped him off ? For sure recommend! And will for sure be using Desi as a puppysitter in the future!”

“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!”

“I had the pleasure of using Raquel's dog boarding service, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience! From the moment we dropped off our dog, we felt at ease knowing she would be in such caring and capable hands. Raquel was incredibly attentive, sending us updates and photos throughout our dog's stay, which really put our minds at rest. Her home is welcoming, with plenty of space for dogs to play and relax, including a large fenced-in yard that’s absolutely beautiful. Our dog had so much fun running and playing with Raquel's two I'm two boys. She came home happy, healthy, and well-cared-for, and we could tell she had a great time. I highly recommend Raquel's dog boarding service to anyone looking for a safe, loving environment for their pets!”

“Extremely over protective of my pup Dzil, Kaylah and her family took great care of her. She sent photos while I was away made me feel comfortable. One word to sum up her stay.....Excellent!”

“Amy was great with communication and sending pics! It was very clear the dogs were well cared for. I appreciated her flexibility in terms of timing. (As we were road tripping with young children it was hard to guess exact drop off and pick up times.) If we are in the area again we will definitely book with Amy again! Thank you!”

“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!”

“Our King Charles Cavalier, Charlie, boarded with Steven C. for four nights. Charlie was well taken care of and enjoyed his time with the family. I highly recommend this pet sitter. He sent pictures and videos often, so I knew Charlie was having a great time and being taken care of in our absence. Steven was my back-up sitter as our regular sitter was out of town. I would definitely use Steven again if our regular sitter is unavailable in the future. We did do a "Meet & Greet" before I left Charlie as I am very particular about who I leave him with while we travel.”


“Carey was wonderful with Jager! She was extremely responsive, friendly, and kept me well updated with photos throughout his stay. It was clear her whole family showered my fur baby with love. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!”
