“So happy to have found Jordan!!! Our sweet dog Maggie’s stayed over for three nights and I have to say, I rested assured. I got pictures, videos, and comments about Maggie’s day. Maggie was safe and happy, so I was able to enjoy my vacation. Jordan communicated daily, and that gave us peace of mind.”
“Ludris was a wonderful sitter for my large breed dog, Jill. She kept me updated with pictures and provided clear communication throughout my dog's stay. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Maria was very loving and so sweet with my 2 dogs. She sent videos and pictures of them every day while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to board their dogs.”
“Romeo always has a wonderful time with Chantel. He was sad to leave her. I have no doubt my little guy is being cared for and loved when he's away from me. If you are looking for a great person and dog lover, Chantel is it, no question.”
“As soon as she crossed over the threshold, my puppy immediately took a liking to Ercilia. This made me feel extremely comfortable with her providing weekend care for my baby. I will absolutely recommend her, and will also be using her in the future!”
About: I provide experienced, in-home pet care with a calm, structured environment — not a crowded kennel. I focus on personalized attention, routines, and making each dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable like they’re at home. I structure my daily and weekly schedule around pet care, allowing me to be present throughout the day. This ensures consistent routines, regular check-ins, and personalized attention for every pet. I care for pets using a structured, supervised setup. I have multiple indoor kennels for comfort and safety, a fully fenced backyard with outdoor kennels for supervised play and fresh air, and a climate-controlled shed for temperature-safe rest and rotation. Pets are never left unsupervised, and I rotate time between indoor comfort, outdoor activity, and rest to ensure safety, cleanliness, and individualized care.
“Please please book ! Tionne was so thoughtful and my pup was in great hands. Lots of updates and pictures and the environment was so safe and loving . We will be booking again.”
“Larry and Pamela were great with Odin. They sent pictures each day and kept me up to date on how things were going. I will definitely use their services next time I need someone to watch Odin.”
“10/10 dog boarding service. Kristin really cared for my doggies and was extremely kind. They absolutely enjoyed themselves at her place! I would definitely book again! Thank you!!”
“This was my first time hiring a sitter (new pet), so I didn't know how it would work or how things would go. To my delight, the process was simple and easy. Now onto the sitter--Jacqueline was outstanding. She kept my cat/kitten (grown lil boy, "Mr") from Thur-Sun. She sent pics of him daily and let me know how he was doing, what he was eating, etc. She brought up no issues with him during his visit with her. I felt at peace seeing the pics (especially the first day) of him and knew he was safe and happy. I'm glad I chose Jacqueline and encourage anyone who's on the fence about getting a sitter, to try Jacqueline....I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Thank you Jacqueline A....”

“I had an issue with another sitter I had set up through Rover for when I'd be out of town and they dropped my dogs back at home despite me not being there. I contacted Kimberly immediately and although she was also out of town, she took the time to go to my house and get my dogs as soon as she got back that night. She is an absolute angel and is great with my high energy boys. I cannot recommend her enough. I am so thankful for her!”

I’m used to taking my dogs on multiple lengthy walks a day because we moved into an apartment. I have a pretty flexible schedule, so I can work around you! I will follow their instructions and take care of them as they would themselves. I can crate them and work with them on simple training tasks if needed.
“Alexis did a great job of caring for our kitties, Nala and Adelaide, while we were away for a week. Although Alexis had never been to our home, she easily followed the provided directions to ensure that our girls had clean litter and fresh water, and that our home was secure. She was very professional in communications as well. We will look forward to hiring her for future trips.”
“This is the second time we've hired Nikki to take care of our cat Helen. She is great!!! Provides really good updates and pictures, and you can tell she cares about your pet. Will definitely book Nikki again!”

“Alivia is awesome! She has been great with my VERY shy nine year old cat multiple times in the past. This weekend she was also AMAZING with my two rambunctious kittens. They enjoyed Alivia's attention & affection. I really appreciated her prompt updates & photos.”
About: I have grown up with all different kinds of pets. Along with watching friends pets, I have worked for companies such as United Paws and Wag. I can do early mornings and evenings, I am in the military so that takes up my time from 9-1700. I do have Saturdays and Sundays off. I will care for the pets as if they are my own. Lots of love and playing and treats if permitted. Pet deserve full attention and that is what they will get.
“I wouldn’t definitely use Emily again. She is thorough, caring, and willing to work with us on what our cats needed. She goes above and beyond to ensure everything, even the littlest details are taken care of.”
About: I have always grown up around cats and have taken care of them for family and friends when they have been on vacations. I am familiar with indoor or out door pets, cleaning of the litter boxes, and how much food to feed them. I can also administer medication if needed.
“Alicia, was a very conscientious pet and house sitter. I had her stay at my home with my three cats and she was in constant communication, providing me with updates and picture. She also left the house as clean as it was when she arrived. I would highly recommend Alicia and I will definitely have her watch my pets again.”

About: My wife and I have always through the years had some variety of dogs and cats, male and female. Small and not so small 😊At times even birds, rabbits and Guinea pigs. We have taken care of my our grand dogs and grand kitties. We have chosen not to have our own animals friends in this season of our life because of the freedom it gives us to visit our children , grandchildren and great grandchildren we have in different states now. But feel we would enjoy helping others with their friends in our retirement. Our yard has a white picket fence and is a decent size for someone to run around in, but it is not completely fenced in. We are retired. We do not have any daily obligations anywhere. We go to church and we visit our children out of state on some of the holidays. Of course we would keep a close eye on them and see that they have water and ther food and a place to rest and as many potty breaks as needed. Also feel like they should be able to get the exercise they need with fresh air outside. Between a porch and deck that they can enjoy with us. Walking with a lease around the yard and their lease attached to an outside chain for their individual walking/running 😊
About: I have taken care of pets practically my entire life! I have tons of experience with many breeds and temperaments, and have two dogs of my own. I am able to adjust to any schedule your pet may need to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I know how difficult it can be to be away from your loved fur babies so I try to send a good amount of pictures and updates to keep you informed. I have a fully fenced yard with lots of space to run and play, and a surplus of toys my dogs would love to share. I work from home so I am able to have a flexible schedule and can work with whatever schedule your pet needs to make sure they are comfortable and well taken care of. Dedicated pet sitter prioritizing safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. Whether in your home or mine, I tailor care to suit each pet's needs. I create a secure setting and build a trusting relationship, ensuring your furry friends feel at ease during their stay.
About: We're conveniently located just off of hwy 401 and near I-95 and I-40. I've always had family pets since I was the age of 2. I've cared for all ages of dogs and cats. I've been a midwife to many previous cats, bottle fed, watched live births of pups, and administered oral medications. I am always available for play time and snuggle time. I currently work part-time and am only away for 6 hours during the day. During this time my husband or my teen are usually home for part of that time. It's perfect because our pets aren't left all alone for very long. I have 2 dogs, one is playful and one is very relaxed. They have been around other dogs a number of times and loves playing at the dog park. They are friendly. At night our dogs are able to go upstairs and sleep in our room. During your pups stay, they are welcome to sleep anywhere in the house. We have a spare room downstairs that I'm happy to stay in if they need that (my dogs take up our whole bed upstairs). If your pup is crate trained and prefers their crate, I suggest you bring it for their stay so they can feel more at home.
“They were amazing! I was nervous to leave my pups but they were so tuckered out when they got home and I know they took great care of them while staying there! Will definitely use them again when I need a sitter!”

“First and best experience with a pet sitter! I’ll always have her watch my pups, she treats them like her own family! My doggies are well cared for and I feel mentally at ease.”
About: Hi, I’m Celina, an animal lover with years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I recently relocated from Alaska to North Carolina and am excited to provide top-quality care for pets in my new community. My passion for animals drives me to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Whether you need a regular pet sitter or someone for a special occasion, I’m here to help! I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. I’ve worked with dogs who have anxiety and understand how to make them feel more at ease, whether it’s through a calming environment, routine, or extra attention. I’m also skilled at administering medication to both cats and dogs, so you can trust that your pet’s health is in good hands. I offer boarding, drop-in visits, house sitting and doggy daycare. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel secure. Additionally, I can assist with light housework, such as cleaning up after pets and watering plants. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I genuinely love taking care of pets and will treat your furry family members as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs medication, special attention, or just someone to be there while you're away, I’m here to help. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet! As a stay-at-home mom, pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily life. I take my daughter on daily walks, so having a friendly dog to accompany us is always a joy—if your dog is comfortable and safe around children. If not, no worries! I can leave my daughter with a trusted person while I give your pet my full attention. I have my own car, so transportation to your location is never an issue. Your pet will receive all the love, care, and attention they need, no matter what! When caring for pets in your home, I provide drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting, ensuring your pet is safe, comfortable, and well-cared for in their familiar environment. During my visits, I’ll feed, water, and play with your pet, as well as clean up after them. I take special care to ensure your pet’s safety by following your guidelines and routines, keeping doors securely closed, and making sure they’re always supervised. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, companionship, or medication, I ensure they’re safe and happy until you return. Safety is my top priority when walking dogs. I ensure that dogs are always leashed and carefully monitored during walks. If your dog enjoys walks and is safe around children, I can bring them along on my daily walks with my daughter. For dogs that require more individualized attention, I provide solo walks in quiet, pet-friendly areas to keep them safe. While house sitting, I make sure your pet stays safe and secure in your home, following their routine to minimize any stress. I also keep your home secure, clean up after your pet, and take care of light tasks like watering plants. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. My goal is to provide a loving, safe, and secure environment for your pets, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

I always treat every animal like they are my own no matter who’s pet is, my last 2 jobs were a dog bather and I have loved every second of it and I can’t wait to work with animals again. I am currently able for full time, I am availability at all times and so I have a very flexible schedule. I am always here when needed.

I have experience with elderly dog care, puppy, administering medication & monitoring input and output. I do know how to clip dog nails & clean their ears as well as bathe them. I am a full time mom and I stay home with our 3 children. My children love to be outside so we spend a lot of time outside playing with our dogs. We have a fenced backyard - about .4 acres fenced in. We live in a development and go on walks with our dogs. We have built in dog crates in our entertainment center where dogs could sleep if needed. We also have a dog fence we could make a play area for.
“Nina is such a blessing. When we leave our fur babies with her, we don't have to worry about them at all. Thank you so much Nina, they are looking forward to staying with you again soon.”
About: I have loved animals all my life and have had pets in the home since I was born. I first started babysitting others pets while their owners were on Leave or TDY starting in the 3rd grade. I have a very large fenced in back yard with plenty of grass for your pet to run and play. While your pet is in my care, they will be given plenty of potty breaks, exercise and play time. I will send you pictures and brief updates throughout their stay to put your mind at ease. I have extensive experience dealing with senior pets who need medications and who need special care due to specific medical ailments. Your pet will always be treated as my family. They will get hugs and kisses, too! Please don't let my address in Wade deter you...I am only 8 miles from Ramsey Street!! For safety reasons, we cannot take care of Pitt Bulls or any pet that is aggressive. If it is the first time caring for your pet, I will ask to do a Meet and Greet so we can all meet one another to ensure our pets will all get along. I work remotely from home so your pet will rarely be left alone. I have two dogs of my own, so your pet will have plenty of company to play with. Since I do work from home, I am able to provide plenty of potty breaks and time to go outside in the yard to run and play. I have a very large fenced in yard that is all grass and very clean providing your pet plenty of room to run and play or just time to walk around the yard and explore. I will never leave your pet outside alone. Either my husband or I will be with them the entire time. While inside the house, they will have full access to clean water, plenty of toys and soft dog beds, all in our very clean home. If I am dropping in on your pet in your home, you can rest assured that I will be on time for the visit, take them to potty, and give them plenty of love. I will be very respectful of your home and only go in the areas needed for me to do the visit. For safety reason, I will not be able to watch Pitt Bulls or pets that are aggressive in any way. Please let me know if your dog can jump or climb fences, or is an escape artist.
About: I’ve had dozens of different animals since I was young. Ranging from farm animals, domestic animals, parrots and reptiles. Medication administration experience and bottle feeding as well. No care details are too extra or complicated. I am open to sitting any type of animal! I am home full time aside from errands with my little ones. I have a mini farm as I call it. Dogs, chickens, cats, ducks and more. I am outside majority of the day. We do love going to the park where my bulldog enjoys the dog area as well, so if you’re ok with it, trips to the park may be part of your pets stay! My farm is not completely fenced in, but I do have a fenced in area attached to the front of the house for the animals with plenty of space! I have a very long gravel driveway away from the main road. I have leads, collars, harnesses and cages if needed. I have baby gates in home if needed as well. My two dogs love everyone, they can just be overly friendly! Our oldest cat’s go outside a lot, so they are usually busy all day. Our youngest cat loves to play with everyone including dogs, but likes to stay inside. My female dog is not spayed, un neutered males will either be supervised or separated at night time.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, and recently gained experience caring for cats, birds and rabbits. I have also spent some free time volunteering in animal shelters so I am comfortable with all animal sizes. I hope to care for your fur baby soon! I currently work remotely full time which allows me to spend time with pets who are in need of boarding. Because of my time at home, pets will receive lots of attention and care. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who are fully vaccinated and enjoy playing with others. One is an American foxhound and the other is a great dane
About: I’ve had my own pets since I was old enough to walk! I have a cat and great dane, and have had many other small pets in the past. I walk my great dane every day and I am happy to take care of your little loved ones! I am a full time student and work/volunteer part time, so I try to be as flexible as I can with clients. I am happy to make space in my schedule to take care of your furry friends! I do not leave pets unattended. I am very observant and quick on my feet. Your pets safety is my #1 concern. My pets get loads of love and attention they need at home
“Elise was the perfect sitter for my high energy Malinois! Her dog and mine got along great and even got to go to the dog park together. She was very accommodating to my last minute request and early drop off/late pickup (0600-1700). Even after my dog had an accident due to starting her heat cycle (which Elise notified me of) she was still very friendly and helpful with updates and Barleys well being. At the end of the day my dog was exhausted by the time I picked her up and ready to sleep! I highly recommend Elise and would definitely trust her again!”
About: Ever since I was a baby all I can remember is having pets and caring for them. Walking them, feeding them, letting them outside and giving them love. I have 2 fur babies of my own who are beyond spoiled. I have trained my current 2 dogs and our family dog back home in Michigan, with potty training and basic commands. I’ve cared for dogs who need medications including my own pup who gets ear infections. I have a fenced in privacy fence backyard with a good amount of running room. I am currently not working so I’m a stay at home mom. I’m available all days of the week all hours and most holidays. This gives me and your fury friend plenty of time to play and be outdoors, or for me to spend extra time with them in your home. I have a fenced in back and front yard and two fur pups of my own. This can give your fur baby playmates as well as mine. I can easily accommodate to crates, special diets, medications and almost anything your fur friend needs. I have 2 totes of toys, and a 5 gallon water jug down at all times.

About: Hi, I’m Maylan! I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether that’s energetic puppy care, patient senior support, or helping shy pets feel comfortable. I have experience with feeding routines, potty breaks, exercise, and keeping pets calm and comfortable while owners are away. As a pre-VMT student with a strong passion for animal care, I focus on safety, communication, and treating every pet like family. I have years of experience taking care of my own pets as well as neighbors, friends, and those I had the pleasure of meeting along the way. I am currently working part-time while also in school full time. My time for pets is fairly open and will try my best to find a time that works for all involved. In the clients home I follow each pets normal schedule to make everything run as smoothly as possible and keep them feeling safe and comfortable while their pawrent is away. I provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and yard clean up. For drop-in visits and overnight stays the same applies.
“Erin did a great job caring for our three dogs. She took the time to understand our dogs’s various personalities. She was friendly and very personable. The dogs all warmed up to her. We will definitely ask her sit again.”
About: Hi! My name is Fernanda, and I provide drop-in visits and dog walking in the Lillington area. I've always had a deep love for animals — I'm a dog mom to three myself: Cobain, Moonie, and Jalapeno, a senior dog who showed up at our house last year and never left. Caring for three dogs with very different ages and personalities has taught me to read each dog individually rather than treat care as one-size-fits-all. I understand your pets are members of your family, and my goal is to give them that same love, attention, and safety while you're away. I'm home most of the day, so a visit from me isn't rushed or squeezed in — your dog gets real attention, not just a quick in-and-out. As a dedicated pet parent to my own three dogs, my daily life is entirely built around a structured animal care routine. Because of this, my schedule is highly predictable and reliable. I manage my time carefully to ensure that your pets receive punctual feeding, on-time medication, and consistent potty breaks without disruption. Whether you need early morning check-ins or late evening drop-ins, I am organized, timely, and fully committed to keeping your pet’s normal routine exactly on track. Safety is my absolute highest priority. Managing a diverse three-dog pack with completely different sizes, breeds, and personalities—including a delicate senior dog—means I am hyper-aware of animal body language, stress triggers, and environmental safety. I strictly follow all entry/exit protocols to prevent escape artists from slipping out the door. I am patient, gentle, and highly experienced in tracking slow movements, administering oral medications, and recognizing when a pet needs quiet rest.
About: Hi! I love animals and genuinely just want to play with them. If I happen to be able to help someone in the process that’s just a bonus. I’ll take care of them and send you cute pics. I did have a dog with 3 legs, so if you have any disabled or quirks with your pets- I’m happy to accommodate. I’m available all weekend to play with your pet. If they’re energetic and like to run, let me know and we can go for a jog together. I have a large backyard with a fence that’s perfect for zoomies. I also have a dog that’s super friendly and loves to play with other pets.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 12 yrs old. It’s a passion of mine to make sure all animals are cared for and comfortable.

I have a fenced in backyard I have five friendly babies and one cat. I’m open to any service taking care of your babies at your location or mine.

“My boys can be a bit much when first meeting new people and the two together can be a little overwhelming.. Sandra has really been so good with them and they respond very well with her! We are thankful for her patience and the work she does with them ! Such a blessing for us!”
“Eric was on time, professional, and my dog adored him. For 30 minutes each day, he walked him and even got on the ground and played with him. I will certainly ask Eric to help out in the future when I need a walker again.”

About: With over three years of professional experience working at NoDa Bark & Board, Lucky Pup, and Camp Bow Wow, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. My responsibilities included supervising group play, administering medications when needed, feeding, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and ensuring every dog stayed safe and comfortable throughout the day. I’m also Dog and Cat CPR certified, so your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to build trust while providing plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. As of right now, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week. I’m currently between jobs while waiting to begin graduate school in the spring, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Toward the end of August, I’ll begin substitute teaching, but my availability will still remain flexible outside of school hours. Whether your pet needs daytime visits, overnight care, or weekend attention, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. Having worked professionally in multiple doggy daycare facilities, I’m experienced in reading canine body language, preventing conflicts, and responding calmly in stressful situations.

“So happy to have found Jordan!!! Our sweet dog Maggie’s stayed over for three nights and I have to say, I rested assured. I got pictures, videos, and comments about Maggie’s day. Maggie was safe and happy, so I was able to enjoy my vacation. Jordan communicated daily, and that gave us peace of mind.”
“Maria was very loving and so sweet with my 2 dogs. She sent videos and pictures of them every day while I was away. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to board their dogs.”
About: I provide experienced, in-home pet care with a calm, structured environment — not a crowded kennel. I focus on personalized attention, routines, and making each dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable like they’re at home. I structure my daily and weekly schedule around pet care, allowing me to be present throughout the day. This ensures consistent routines, regular check-ins, and personalized attention for every pet. I care for pets using a structured, supervised setup. I have multiple indoor kennels for comfort and safety, a fully fenced backyard with outdoor kennels for supervised play and fresh air, and a climate-controlled shed for temperature-safe rest and rotation. Pets are never left unsupervised, and I rotate time between indoor comfort, outdoor activity, and rest to ensure safety, cleanliness, and individualized care.
“Please please book ! Tionne was so thoughtful and my pup was in great hands. Lots of updates and pictures and the environment was so safe and loving . We will be booking again.”
“10/10 dog boarding service. Kristin really cared for my doggies and was extremely kind. They absolutely enjoyed themselves at her place! I would definitely book again! Thank you!!”
“This was my first time hiring a sitter (new pet), so I didn't know how it would work or how things would go. To my delight, the process was simple and easy. Now onto the sitter--Jacqueline was outstanding. She kept my cat/kitten (grown lil boy, "Mr") from Thur-Sun. She sent pics of him daily and let me know how he was doing, what he was eating, etc. She brought up no issues with him during his visit with her. I felt at peace seeing the pics (especially the first day) of him and knew he was safe and happy. I'm glad I chose Jacqueline and encourage anyone who's on the fence about getting a sitter, to try Jacqueline....I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Thank you Jacqueline A....”

I can definitely crate if needed and also help them get warmed up!
“Barley had a great time at Emily’s! He was treated like a little king- never left alone as requested, slept in bed with Emily’s daughter, and got to run around with her dogs and other animals. Will be booking again when I need a sitter!”
“Casey was great!! She showered my dog with love and kept me informed (pictures and messages) with how he was doing throughout his stay. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone who’s looking for someone to watch their pet.”
“Kristen and her family took wonderful care of our Dashi! She’s very responsive and provides frequent photos. Dashi was happy to see us, but we could tell that she was well cared for and content. She had a great time playing with Bentley and other friends!”
“Haley was great! She communicated with us during our whole trip and sent us plenty of pictures. She has a large fenced in yard that my dogs loved and I really enjoyed that my dogs were able to socialize with Haleys dogs and others she day cares. I would recommend Haley to anyone!”

“I had an issue with another sitter I had set up through Rover for when I'd be out of town and they dropped my dogs back at home despite me not being there. I contacted Kimberly immediately and although she was also out of town, she took the time to go to my house and get my dogs as soon as she got back that night. She is an absolute angel and is great with my high energy boys. I cannot recommend her enough. I am so thankful for her!”
“Jayda was amazing with my dog and kept me updated daily with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell my pup was well cared for and happy. Highly recommend!”
