“Olivia and Andrew were wonderful. Maizie had an amazing vacation and we were able to enjoy our trip without worrying about her care. She was well cuddled and played with and Olivia send regular updates to keep my mind at ease. Thank you!”
“We love having Rupert stay with Andrew and his family! Andrew is fantastic with communication, takes Rupert on plenty of walks, socializes him with his adorable cat Poe, and gave him his daily medications! We feel so great knowing Rupert is with a wonderful caretaker when we go out of town! We have used Andrew as a sitter multiple times and will continue to do so!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always enjoyed being around all kinds of pets- from cats and dogs to farm animals. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I’ve dreamed of having the opportunity to spend more time with them. My husband and I moved to Wilmington about 10 years ago, and for much of that time, life kept us so busy that having a pet of our own didn’t feel fair. Since I haven’t had pets of my own during this time, I’ve happily gotten my animal fix by pet sitting for friends and caring for their cats and dogs whenever they’ve needed someone they trust. I work away from home (Registered Nurse since 2016) just one day a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets the attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and love they deserve. I have a fenced in yard, a nice neighborhood for walks and no other pets to care for. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat them like they’re my own.
“Carrie and Tuck had a great time with Kaylah and her family. Kaylah is very responsive and really cares about your pets. I will definitely use her for our next trip. Thank you for treating our pets like family!”
“We had a great experience with Taylor and his family. They shared photos and updates while we were away and our pup even made some new friends while he was there. Would absolutely 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!”
“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!”
“Jennifer was wonderful keeping Cohen and Kelly. She provided regular updates both morning and at night to let me know how things were going. Would absolutely use her again.”
“Our pups love staying with Diane and her family! I can tell by the daily photos she sends to us that they are happy and loved. Knowing that, we enjoy our vacations without worrying about them.”
“This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!”
“Jennifer was wonderful from the moment we reached out to see if she was available to watch Clark. She responded quickly, took the time to ask about his care needs, and genuinely wanted to know how she could best support him during his stay. From the very beginning, she gave us confidence that he would be in excellent hands. When we dropped Clark off, Jennifer was warm, welcoming, and made sure we felt completely at ease. She kept her promise by sending regular updates and photos throughout his stay, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It was clear that she treated Clark like one of her own and made him feel right at home. Jennifer truly followed through on everything she said she would do, and we could tell Clark had a wonderful time with her. We highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable sitter who communicates exceptionally well and provides outstanding care.”
About: Hi! We’re Will and Sara; newly weds with a 1.5 year old Golden Retriever! We love to welcome in new dogs and help dog parents feel at ease knowing their dogs are taken care of! We feel comfortable administering medicine and making sure any special lifestyle needs are met! We have a large fenced in backyard, a flexible work schedule allowing your pet to be cared for as much or as little as they need, and an eagerness to make your dogs feel loved and cared for while you’re away! Sara works remotely at home with the ability to be with the dogs all day. We wake up early, start the day with breakfast and a walk, then routinely take the dogs out for fetch and potty breaks in our backyard throughout the day! We have a large fenced in backyard, a dog-proofed layout with breakables put away, water and food bowls easily accessible from the kitchen and an open layout that allows the dogs to easily stretch out and play where they’d like!
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.
“Sarah and her family were great to my pup Smokey Monroe. Smokey got plenty of walks and frisbee time and also had other pups to play with. Sarah sent photos and was very communicative. Overall Smokey had a great time and was well care for while I was away.”
“Carey was exceptionally responsive and accommodating. She took great care of our baby for over two weeks and sent many reassuring pictures. Dakota looks forward to staying with Carey and her family again.”
“Robert did a fantastic job taking care of our dog frankie! I can highly recommend him for anyone looking for competent and empathetic care for their pet in Wilmington!!”

About: I adopted a kitten (or more so it adopted me) this year and I have quickly done extensive research and made efforts to be the best cat mom possible. I have a newfound love for cats and love to play with them when they want to, and give them their space when they want it.
“Victoria was great! She did exactly as she said concerning my cat and took very good care of her. I was well informed on a daily basis with photos. I was very apprehensive, it was the first time I left my cat, but she made my vacation that much better knowing my Lois was in good hands! Highly recommend her services”
“Siika was a wonderful sitter for our cat Marley! We needed her last-minute, and during a major holiday week, so she really came through! We got updates and photos from her daily, and she spent some extra time playing with Marley knowing we had just recently lost our other cat and this would be her first time solo. Everything was tidy when we got home, and Marley seemed happy and very well taken care of. We are so appreciative and would highly recommend Siika!”
“London was one of the best sitters anyone could ask for. She truly cares about the animals and is willing to go above and beyond to ensure the highest quality of care. 100% recommended her services!!!”
“Thank you so much, Christina, for taking such good care of Leia during these past few days. We really appreciated all the updates and photos you sent us they gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Leia is doing great, and we are very grateful for your help. We will definitely reach out to you again in the future if we need pet sitting services.”
“William was awesome! Excellent communication, letting me know when he arrived and left and how the visit went. William sent photos. He was fun and caring. My very nervous and very slow to warm up dog loved him! I will definitely use William again!”
“Christa has been amazing and so accommodating to our crazy, changing schedule. She has been so amazing with our boy Mango, and he has loved her so much! We will 100% continue using her in the future!”
“We knew right away that Andrew would be the perfect pet sitter for our pups, Lynyrd Skynyrd and David Bowie. The boys bonded with him immediately which made my "mama heart" soar. We went to New Orleans for a trip and Andrew stepped in and provided the BEST care. The photos he sent captured the boys in true happiness and total contentment. We are going to NYC soon and Andrew will keep them again. Do the right thing and obtain Andrew's services for your puppers; they will have a blast and you will have total peace of mind.”
“This was our first time using Jessica to drop in on our pups. She was great and the dogs seemed to love her! We were a bit concerned about having someone in our home while we weren't there, but Jessica helped alleviate those concerns during our scheduled meet and greet. I highly recommend Jessica and we will reach out to her again for future dog sitting services.”
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life, they just have the sweetest souls. I believe the best way to love them is to meet their needs. Whether that’s through affection, play, walks, fetch, training, or enrichment, I’d love to help you meet their needs in whatever season you’re in. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between! Whether they’re super friendly, anxious, timid, stubborn, a bit wild, or just goofy, I pride myself on my ability to be patient and am more than happy to meet your pup where they’re at. I’m currently available for walks and drop in visits between 8am to 5pm Weekdays and on some Saturdays. If you need long term walking or just sporadic, I can do both! I am currently unable to provide in-home services due to restrictions from my landlord, but I’m available for drop in visits and dog-sitting your pup in their domain!
About: Hi! My name is Haleigh and I am an animal lover! I have been taking great care of other people's pets for about 10 years now, and I absolutely love doing it. I have had dogs my whole life on top of my experience pet-sitting, so I understand most of their needs and how to take exceptional care of them.

I have house-sat while taking care of the pets, made drop in visits through out the day, and have walked multiple dogs at once. I am very reliable and attentive. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave them with another person; so I always make sure to do frequent updates over text (unless call is preferred). I do have two dogs of my own so if you’re looking to drop your pet with me, he/she must get along with other dogs! Thank you for your consideration!

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. While I don't currently have pets at my apartment where I'll be pet sitting, my family has five dogs, so I'm very familiar with caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I volunteered with a local animal rescue throughout all four years of high school, where I cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments by walking, feeding, socializing, and helping them feel safe and comfortable while they waited to find their forever homes. During that time, I also served as a foster, providing temporary homes for rescue dogs and helping them adjust to a loving environment. These experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to build trust with animals. In college, I served as the Treasurer for UNCW's Service Dog Training and Education Program (STEP) for two years. While I'm not a professional dog trainer, my involvement with the organization gave me valuable experience working alongside service dogs and handlers. I'm happy to reinforce basic training, good manners, and routines while your pet is in my care. One thing that sets me apart is that I work from home, which means your pet will receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. They'll rarely be left alone, and I'll be able to stick closely to their normal routine, whether that means regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company. I understand that every pet is unique, and my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I'll care for your pet as if they were one of my own and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy complete peace of mind. Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm able to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervised care throughout the day. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods, and I can easily accommodate their normal schedule to help them feel comfortable and at ease. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide morning, afternoon, and evening care. Whether your pet needs an active day filled with walks and play or simply a calm, cozy environment with lots of love and attention, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide care that's as close to home as possible. Because I work from home, I'll be with your pet for most of the day to provide supervision, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment where your pet will have a safe, calm environment to relax and feel at home. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I'll treat your pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own.

About: 🐾 Experienced, Loving Care for Dogs of Every Kind 🧡 For the past 10 years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra patience and special care. 🐶 I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and am also experienced with beginning training and reinforcing good habits. Most importantly, I take a welcoming, trustworthy, and patient approach so every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pup needs exercise, playtime, companionship, basic training, or a little extra TLC, I’m here to treat them like family while you’re away. 🧡🐕 🏡 Flexible, Dedicated Care for Your Fur Babies 🐾🧡 I work from home with a very flexible schedule, which allows me the freedom to travel and work from anywhere. That flexibility means I can give your pets the time, attention, and companionship they deserve not just a quick visit, but genuine care throughout the day. 🐶🐱 I’m also available for house sitting and extended pet-sitting stays, making me a great fit for longer trips, vacations, or times when your pets simply do best with someone around.

About: I love dogs!! I have taken care of dogs for family, friends, and clients for over six years. I have experience with all breeds and sizes. I treat every dog like I would my own: with love, care, and extra treats😉 I am a student with a very flexible routine. My nights are always free and I have large breaks in between classes where I can leave campus. I am very respectful of other people's homes and I leave things exactly as I left them, if not cleaner. I follow instructions closely and thoroughly to ensure a happy client and a happy pup.
“Victoria was great with my two huskies, one of whom is a notorious puller on walks. She was on time, sent great photos and updates, and my dogs were very happy for the additional exercise and attention while we were out of town. 100% will contact her again!”
About: For the past four years, I’ve been managing life with Piper, my anxious Chihuahua mix, and Tux, my blind cat who navigates like he has sonar. They’ve taught me how to keep pets calm, confident, and on a solid routine no matter what challenges they have. I’m a college student and veteran, so my schedule is pretty flexible when I’m not in class. I’m usually available for walks, drop‑ins, or sitting throughout the week, and I plan my study time around pet care. I keep a steady routine with my own pets, and it’s easy for me to fit in extra visits or longer stays when needed. I focus on creating a calm, safe space for every pet. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and pay attention to small behavior changes. In a client’s home, I use gentle handling, clear communication, and maintain a predictable environment so pets feel secure and supported.
“London was the first dog sitter I contacted and I am soooo glad! We are so lucky to have her and she made our move transition so much easier! Reliable and always communicate with us about our baby. 13/10 recommend!”
About: Disclaimer: I am currently in Idaho until September 13th. Hi! My name is Isabelle, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with dogs and spent much of my childhood riding horses, so being around animals has always felt like second nature to me. I also have two dogs of my own at home that I absolutely love, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I bring over five years of hands-on veterinary experience, including working in a 24/7 emergency and specialty animal hospital in Boise, ID, where I worked primarily with dogs and cats. I started in the Emergency Room as a Technician Assistant, helping with patient care, administering medications, assisting with radiographs, collecting samples, and ensuring every pet received compassionate, high-quality treatment. I was later promoted to a Veterinary Assistant in the Cardiology department, where I assisted with advanced procedures such as echocardiograms, ECGs, blood pressure monitoring, placing heart monitors, etc. I also educated clients on heart conditions, managed medical records, and ensured accurate care for every patient. In addition to my veterinary background, I have previous pet sitting experience caring for dogs, cats, and even chickens. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medication administration, exercise needs, and providing attentive, reliable care while you’re away. A few months ago, I relocated from Boise, ID, and I’m excited to continue working with pets in this new community! My medical background allows me to confidently care for pets with special needs, administer medications, and recognize when something may be off. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, overnight care, or extra support due to medical needs, you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in experienced and loving hands. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. Since I recently moved to the area and am currently looking for a veterinary position, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for other pets as well. I’m excited to meet new pets, build relationships with their owners, and provide reliable, attentive care. In my home, I care for two dogs of my own, so daily pet care is already a big part of my routine. I make sure they get regular meals, fresh water, daily exercise, and lots of attention throughout the day. I also keep a consistent routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime to help pets feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely so their pet can stay on their normal schedule and be as comfortable as possible. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, medication if needed, and plenty of affection. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away by keeping their routine consistent and giving them lots of attention.
“Candice was great! She very kindly did a meet and greet since this was the first time my dog had a dog walker that she didn’t know. Candice‘s communication was great - very prompt and sent a cute picture of Rosie. I would highly recommend her!”
“They always go above and beyond and take care of not only my dog but keep me updated with my cats as well! I am so lucky to have them take care of my animals when I’m gone !!🫶🏻”

About: I treat every pet as if they’re my own—with love, patience, and genuine care. What truly sets me apart is my reliability and responsibility. You can count on me to show up on time, follow your instructions carefully, and keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m incredibly loving and attentive, always making sure your pets feel secure while you’re away.

They’re welcome on the furniture, in the bed, and anywhere else that makes them feel safe, loved, and comfortable.

About: Hi! My name is Haleigh and I am an animal lover! I have been taking great care of other people's pets for about 10 years now, and I absolutely love doing it. I have had dogs my whole life on top of my experience pet-sitting, so I understand most of their needs and how to take exceptional care of them. I understand that these are not just pets, they are family members, and I always intend to treat them just as that. I have house-sat while taking care of the pets, made drop in visits through out the day, and have walked multiple dogs at once. I am very reliable and attentive. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave them with another person; so I always make sure to do frequent updates over text (unless call is preferred). I do have two dogs of my own so if you’re looking to drop your pet with me, he/she must get along with other dogs! Thank you for your consideration! I only work three days a week so I should have plenty of time to take care of your babies as long as it’s on my days off which I have posted! :) I have a fenced yard and two very friendly and playful dogs to keep yours company. I can also crate your dog or dogs if needed.
About: I have grown up with animals and have been pet sitting since my early high school years! As an adult, I grew up and adopted two fur babies who have become my whole world - 6 yr old and 3 yr old. When it comes to pet care, I treat every pup like my very own. They are the very best the world has to offer! I walk my own pups early every morning and evening (times very much depend on the heat during summer). We get lots of activity, zoomies runs and toy time! I basically work my schedule around my own dogs' wellbeing, so adding another to the crew is no issue! I practice safe leash walks, use the backyard as needed, and allow off-leash in designated, safe areas! I have a lot of experience in ensuring dog safety and avoiding reactivity through reading doggy body language and behavior. This helps keep everyone safe and maintains healthy activity and stimulation.
About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, and horses. In addition to this, I am a Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital. I have years of experience caring for animals, both within the Veterinary industry, and outside of. I'm currently a part-time worker, which gives me time to play with your pups (or kitties)! I can't wait to meet them and have the best time. I will ensure that your pet(s) are in safe hands and have food and water available. I will ensure they are walking on the proper leash and collar or harness, and I will make sure to crate them when I leave if applicable.

“This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!”
“Jennifer was wonderful from the moment we reached out to see if she was available to watch Clark. She responded quickly, took the time to ask about his care needs, and genuinely wanted to know how she could best support him during his stay. From the very beginning, she gave us confidence that he would be in excellent hands. When we dropped Clark off, Jennifer was warm, welcoming, and made sure we felt completely at ease. She kept her promise by sending regular updates and photos throughout his stay, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. It was clear that she treated Clark like one of her own and made him feel right at home. Jennifer truly followed through on everything she said she would do, and we could tell Clark had a wonderful time with her. We highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable sitter who communicates exceptionally well and provides outstanding care.”
