Thank you so so much for loving our fur baby! 🩵🐶”

“Jessica was an amazing Sitter. She’s a great care of our Sheepadoodle. He loved being there she must update it on how he was doing and sent us lots of pictures. I would highly recommend her to watch your dog.”
About: I been around animals my whole life. I work from home and can be available for all your pet needs. I have a large fenced in back yard! I work from home and hardly ever leave the house during the day. I take breaks throughout my work day to play in the yard with my dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a safe neighborhood to take dogs on walks. I like play time in the back yard and walks around the neighborhood with the dogs.
“Marcia is very friendly and has lots of experience with all types of dogs. She treated our English bulldog very well and was accommodating to the fact that she should be kept separate from other dogs.”
“10/10 service! Alexander took fantastic care of my dog, Charlee! He kept me updated daily with photos and notes, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Charlee was well-cared for, happy, and in great hands. I highly recommend Alexander and would definitely book him again!”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple animals throughout my life, such as dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, ducks, and chickens. I’m very reliable and will make sure to follow directions on how you want your animal taken care of. I am currently a student and have a part time job, but I also have a lot of free time on my hands making this type of job perfect for me. I grew up around cats and dogs growing up and care deeply for animals. For animals I board I like to do a meet and greet to let your animal get to know an unfamiliar place with you there. For dog sitting I like to do a meet and greet at the house or a nearby park to get to know your pet and so that I’m not a stranger to them when hanging with them.
“Our Coconut was so well taken care of during our trip, we had no concerns about him while we were gone. Although normally shy, Coconut quickly became comfortable with her. There were so many pictures of him made into memes that were incredibly cute, and she both trimmed his nails and bangs to make him more comfortable. She even gave Coconut an embroidered kerchief with his name on it to take home! Definitely a sitter to bring him back to.”
“Olivia was amazing! We left our 7m kitten with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well taken care of. He absolutely loved staying with her! He got along so well with her male cat and even had fun with her two kids. Olivia was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and we could tell our kitten was genuinely happy and comfortable with her. We would 100% recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Leaving our sweet boy behind has never been as comforting and low stress as it was with having Jason watch him for us. Knowing Colt was having a great time and in a loving home while we were out of town means the world to us! We came back to a safe and happy boy. We are so grateful!!”
“I wish I could give 10 stars! This is definitely the best boarding experience we've ever had. They provided her so much outside and play time. Emma is usually so anxious in new places, but she really came out of her shell here. She got along great with their dog. You can tell Aanchal really loves dogs and treats each one with care. She even came back with a cute bandana!”

“Jan was amazing with Minion and his care. She was punctual, attentive, and made sure to let me know of anything she saw. She gives the absolute best updates too! Her attention to detail with our meet and greet gave me confidence but she really knocked it out of the oark with her stellar care. Weird measure metric I know but whenever we're away, his coat gets oily like he gets sad and doesn't clean himself. When we got home today he was happy, clean, and soft. So I know for sure he really enjoyed her company. I absolutely recommend her and will reach out to her for our future pet sitting needs.”
“Excellent. Can't say enough about how great care my fur babies were given. I was sent photos everyday of each of the cats, plus being told what they were up to. I don't trust many people with my pets, but I will use Tara again. You won't go wrong with her care.”
“Tabitha was very timely and attentive to our cat "Chi". We appreciated the daily check-ins and the pics posted on-line with Rover.com. Tabitha also took the the time for a "meet'n'greet" with Chi prior to the booking. Thank you!”
“Hailey did a great job taking care of my cat. It was my first time leaving her. Hailey kept me updated on how the drop in visits were going and sent pictures daily. Would highly recommend her.”

“My kiddos wanted to go to the waterpark before returning home from our beach vacation but my fur baby wouldn’t be allowed…. Lucky, I was able to find Jessica last minute thru Rover and everything worked out perfectly! I’d never used Rover before and was a bit nervous to entrust a stranger with my lil girl but I ended up being worried for nothing! Lola loved her play date with Jessica’s fur baby, Peanut, and having some time out of the hot sun! Thanks Jessica, you are amazing! I’ll definitely hit you up next time we visit Emerald Isle!”
About: I have taken care of old dogs, young dogs, and family dogs, multiple animals at one time. I have cared for cats and fish. I would like the opportunity to watch a chicken… I currently have a very flexible schedule which allows me to best care for your animals. I enjoy this gig as something fun on the side. I have a nice front and back yard. I have a cat ready to keep your animal on their toes! My house is certainly animal friendly- we can speak more about the specifications of your pets needs!
About: Dogs, cats, birds, and fish . . . These are some of the best friends I’ve had over the last 45 years. All of my pets have lived long, healthy lives based on excellent feeding, grooming, and regular medical care. I genuinely love animals and have a very watchful eye on their well-being. I am a retired school administrator with a 36-year history of creating productive learning environments and protecting the lives of thousands of school children. Care-taking is my thing. Now, I have a very flexible schedule/calendar, and I am wide open to opportunities to meet and care for animals of all shapes, sizes, and colors. I am available to follow instructions for drop-in or pet/house-sitting in the client’s home—including feeding and letting dogs out for potty breaks, feeding and checking in on cats, and feeding fish or birds.
About: Animals have always been the center of my life. I'm currently a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) and PhD student at North Carolina State University, where I focus on animal health and welfare. Before returning to veterinary school, I spent over a decade leading teams in the technology industry, so reliability, communication, and professionalism are second nature. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, an older parrot, an independent and opinionated cat, or a shy saltwater goby, I take care of them all. For every single animal, from a senior who needs a slower pace or simply loves extra attention, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I understand normal pet behavior, can recognize when something doesn't seem right, and I'm comfortable administering most medications if needed. While you're away, you can expect: Frequent photo and video updates Prompt communication Play and engagement tailored to their energy level Plenty of affection and enrichment Respect for your pet's routine and training I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful. My goal is to make both you and your loved one feel completely at ease from our first meet-and-greet through the moment you return home. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend(s)! My dissertation-writing schedule gives me the flexibility to provide dependable, individualized care without rushing from place to place. Caring for pets is something I intentionally weave into my day, so your dog or cat receives genuine attention, enrichment, and companionship, not just a quick stop in. I love having animals as part of my daily routine, and I strive to make every visit feel calm, engaging, and tailored to your pet's unique personality. Creating a safe, enriching environment for animals is simply part of who I am. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, and relax under close supervision. Because I share my home with my own dogs, fish, and other beloved animals, it's already thoughtfully designed with their safety and well-being in mind. From secure fencing and pet-safe spaces to keeping anything potentially hazardous out of reach, I strive to create an environment where every animal can feel comfortable and secure. I believe every living being deserves kindness, patience, and respect. Whether your pet loves to run and play, curl up for a nap, or quietly observe the world around them, I'll provide a calm, loving space where they can settle in and feel at home. My goal isn't just to "watch" your pet, it's to make them feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while you're away.

“Addison did a fantastic job with Scout. She provided top-notch care, communicated well, and sent plenty of updates throughout the stay. It’s obvious that she makes visiting pets feel safe and comfortable. I felt completely confident leaving my dog in her hands and will definitely use her services again!”

About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up with them since I was a little girl. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me because they're truly part of the family. During high school, I regularly dog sat for neighbors, friends, and family, and I still love helping care for their pets whenever they need someone they can trust. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

I am currently a stay at home wife!

I'm attentive to details, follow any instructions you provide, and will always make your pet's well-being my number one priority.
About: What sets me apart is that I actually stick to your pet’s routine and pay attention to the little things. I also don’t mind helping taking care of exotic pets because I am trying to be an Exotics/Wildlife Veterinarian and have always had a passion for exotics, so I’ll be more than happy to help! I’ve helped with puppy training like potty reinforcing basic commands, but I am always willing to learn any crate training or potty training. I’m also comfortable with senior pups and making sure they get extra patience, slower walks, or medications if needed but I will need to learn how to administer your pup’s medication. I always send updates and photos so you know your pups are happy and taken care of. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I’m mostly available in the afternoons. I usually plan my classes and responsibilities earlier in the day, so afternoons are open for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and playtime. It works out great because I can give pets my full attention without feeling rushed, and I’m able to stay consistent with their schedule. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding and walk schedules, give them plenty of attention, and respect their personality and space. I’m also very respectful of the home and always send updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.

“Jessica was an amazing Sitter. She’s a great care of our Sheepadoodle. He loved being there she must update it on how he was doing and sent us lots of pictures. I would highly recommend her to watch your dog.”
About: I been around animals my whole life. I work from home and can be available for all your pet needs. I have a large fenced in back yard! I work from home and hardly ever leave the house during the day. I take breaks throughout my work day to play in the yard with my dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a safe neighborhood to take dogs on walks. I like play time in the back yard and walks around the neighborhood with the dogs.
“Marcia is very friendly and has lots of experience with all types of dogs. She treated our English bulldog very well and was accommodating to the fact that she should be kept separate from other dogs.”
“10/10 service! Alexander took fantastic care of my dog, Charlee! He kept me updated daily with photos and notes, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Charlee was well-cared for, happy, and in great hands. I highly recommend Alexander and would definitely book him again!”
“Caitlin was amazing and took great care of my boy while I was away for the weekend. She sent pics & videos which were very much appreciated❤️ I will absolutely be reaching out again in the future :))”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple animals throughout my life, such as dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, ducks, and chickens. I’m very reliable and will make sure to follow directions on how you want your animal taken care of. I am currently a student and have a part time job, but I also have a lot of free time on my hands making this type of job perfect for me. I grew up around cats and dogs growing up and care deeply for animals. For animals I board I like to do a meet and greet to let your animal get to know an unfamiliar place with you there. For dog sitting I like to do a meet and greet at the house or a nearby park to get to know your pet and so that I’m not a stranger to them when hanging with them.
“Olivia was amazing! We left our 7m kitten with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well taken care of. He absolutely loved staying with her! He got along so well with her male cat and even had fun with her two kids. Olivia was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and we could tell our kitten was genuinely happy and comfortable with her. We would 100% recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“I wish I could give 10 stars! This is definitely the best boarding experience we've ever had. They provided her so much outside and play time. Emma is usually so anxious in new places, but she really came out of her shell here. She got along great with their dog. You can tell Aanchal really loves dogs and treats each one with care. She even came back with a cute bandana!”
About: Animals have always been the center of my life. I'm currently a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) and PhD student at North Carolina State University, where I focus on animal health and welfare. Before returning to veterinary school, I spent over a decade leading teams in the technology industry, so reliability, communication, and professionalism are second nature. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, an older parrot, an independent and opinionated cat, or a shy saltwater goby, I take care of them all. For every single animal, from a senior who needs a slower pace or simply loves extra attention, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I understand normal pet behavior, can recognize when something doesn't seem right, and I'm comfortable administering most medications if needed. While you're away, you can expect: Frequent photo and video updates Prompt communication Play and engagement tailored to their energy level Plenty of affection and enrichment Respect for your pet's routine and training I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful. My goal is to make both you and your loved one feel completely at ease from our first meet-and-greet through the moment you return home. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend(s)! My dissertation-writing schedule gives me the flexibility to provide dependable, individualized care without rushing from place to place. Caring for pets is something I intentionally weave into my day, so your dog or cat receives genuine attention, enrichment, and companionship, not just a quick stop in. I love having animals as part of my daily routine, and I strive to make every visit feel calm, engaging, and tailored to your pet's unique personality. Creating a safe, enriching environment for animals is simply part of who I am. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, and relax under close supervision. Because I share my home with my own dogs, fish, and other beloved animals, it's already thoughtfully designed with their safety and well-being in mind. From secure fencing and pet-safe spaces to keeping anything potentially hazardous out of reach, I strive to create an environment where every animal can feel comfortable and secure. I believe every living being deserves kindness, patience, and respect. Whether your pet loves to run and play, curl up for a nap, or quietly observe the world around them, I'll provide a calm, loving space where they can settle in and feel at home. My goal isn't just to "watch" your pet, it's to make them feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while you're away.
About: Hello! I’m Brooke! I absolutely love dogs (& all animals really)! I have my own dog, Puck, who I love to take to the lake, on walks and cuddle with. I have been dog sitting for 10 years and I love it. I currently do travel healthcare and I’m looking for a job on the side with my boyfriend’s help too. I can do walks, home visits, overnight sitting in your home and anything else you’d need for your furry friend. I can work with you and your schedule to try to find the perfect time to help out you and your pet. I look forward to hearing from you soon! Don’t hesitate to ask any questions to see if I’m a good fit! I work full time during the week but am free most weekends. My boyfriend also helps out and is an early bird who can do drop ins before 7am and after 5 pm. I have a patio that the dogs can sun bath on and a huge h fenced yard to let the pups run around to get some energy out.
