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.
“Rebecca is one of the best. She takes such great care of Iris, our English bulldog. She goes the extra mile and always ensures we are kept up to date with her progress while being away from home. Iris enjoys her stay as well.”
“Larissa was amazing! She took in my dogs last minute for a trip. She provided frequent updates, photos, and videos. She is very kind and knowledgable about dog behavior and correction. The most important part is my dogs were happy and enjoyed their stay. I will be using her services in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Our Ziggy enjoyed her time at Brittany and Matt's place! She became fast friends with King and another Rover dog. Ziggy came back to us tired and happy, just as we had hoped. They are great communicators and have a wonderful fenced in back yard and easy to walk neighborhood for both play and walks. We plan on having them watch Ziggy again in the future.”
“KenLynn did an amazing job taking care of our fur babies! Just moved to the area and am happy to find someone who will take care of their dog as if they are their own! Highly recommend!”
“Andrea was lovely! Our pups came back super happy and has a great time. Andrea did a wonderful job keeping us updated on the dogs and showed a lot of care. Would definitely recommend, thank you Andrea!”
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.
About: I helped trained animals, aided in births of new pups, bathed all different types of breeds, House sit animals when people go on vacation, I walk their animals and feed them when needed. I only work on weekdays on weekends I go to Virginia to visit and Tuesday it is on and off, I’m still in high-school I got one semester left to go so I would only be able to do night shift I have a black German Shepard I would take her to the park every week and I would give her bath 1-2 time a month and I would feed my dog 2 times a day one in the morning and one at late evening
“This was our fur baby's first overnight without the presence of any family member. Marcia was very accommodating as our baby doesn't do good in confined spaces and kennel is not an option for him. After a trial visit at Marcia's house he came home and was happy which made us feel relieved. We tried doggie daycare before and he came home super anxious and seemed depressed. We will definitely use Marcia's services in the future because we love seeing our baby happy. Thank you Marcia for opening your home to our fur baby.”
“My Pup was having the time of his life boarding over night. Aanchal was very good at communicating with me through my Pups stay and sent me videos and pictures. I would highly recommend using her for care and boarding.”
“Overall great experience booking with Alexander! We left Sadie (6 year old German shepherd) in his care for 8 days and each day we received updates and pictures. I would definitely book with again in the future.”
“Abigail was a wonderful sitter! I appreciated that she sent pictures and updates often. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our dog. We will definitely be using her as a sitter again.”
“Karen did an amazing job keeping up with us through photos about his walks, down time and eating while at Karen's home. Asher was fed our food and Karen stayed with our schedule for him. Karen likes dogs and asked me questions prior to sitting Asher. I would hire Kkaren again, she did a superb job with him and Asher looked happy at pick up..”

“Samantha did an amazing job taking care of Harley while I was away. She sent plenty of updates and pictures throughout the visits. Great communication as well. Very caring and would book with her again.”
“Francesca has been a huge help for my Mother while she’s in the hospital, taking very good care of her beloved (and shy) kitty! I made the arrangements from out of state, and Francesca has made a difficult time better by making sure we didn’t have to worry about kitty being too lonely. While I haven’t yet met Francesca face to face, a friend has, and confirmed the quality of care. I get pics and vids from every visit so I can assure my Mother that kitty’s needs are met. This is important to my Mother’s wellness, and we are grateful. ?”
“Sharon stepped in for a last-minute, open-ended engagement that was required because of a family emergency. As always, she provided caring, concerned cat sitting. But her above-and-beyond willingness to take on the assignment so late demonstrated her best-in-class customer service attitude. This always makes her our top choice when we travel,”
“Bob and Jan did a wonderful job caring for our disabled dog, cats, bunnies and chickens. They were tidy, kind, communicative and thoughtful. I felt very relaxed with the animals in their hands. Highly recommend.”
“Christina is great! ❤️ So happy my kitties give her lots of love when she comes for their visits. She sends lots of pictures to show me they are doing good and I can see that they are happy so I don't have to worry about them! 😻”

About: I’m new to Rover but not new to pet care! I’ve loved and cared for animals since I was young. Your dog will get plenty of love, playtime, and a calm, safe environment while you’re gone.
“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.”

“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: Dogs, cats, birds, and fish . . . These are some of the best friends I’ve had over the last 45 years.

About: Hello! My name is Ariel and I’ve owned/grew up with dogs my entire life. They hold an extremely special place in my heart. I’ve dog sat starting at the young age of 12 years old. I’ve dog sat for friends, family, and neighbors. It’s something I truly enjoy. I find it to be therapeutic as well. If anything is asked of me that enhances a dog’s spirit, mood, and health it’s pretty rare if I’ll decline a request. I start with building trust with the individual pet and their owner. I believe this is the core of the relationship. When you are on vacation, your pup is as well. Bonding with animals is special. I take this responsibility seriously as I am watching someone’s family member. I am currently a stay at home dog mom. I am available at all hours for needs relating to pet care. I am flexible with availability. I care for pets depending on their specific requirements. I believe in giving a lot of love and building trust. I don’t do anything I wouldn’t do to my own dogs. My pets are spoiled rotten, but live by a routine that benefits their individual needs and happiness. My availability is extremely open and I would plan my personal schedule around my dog sitting schedule. My pup and other 4 legged clients are my top priority. I take my dog out 3 times a day and we we go on a short walk twice a day. Your pup would receive the additional or the same care as my Yorkie Mix
“Addison did a fantastic job with Scout. She provided top-notch care, communicated well, and sent plenty of updates throughout the stay.

About: I have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats, beginning in early childhood and continuing into adulthood. I have owned dogs, cats, and horses since around the age of eight, which gave me an early understanding of daily pet care, animal behavior, and the responsibility required to keep pets healthy, safe, and happy. ***If you’d like a walk please book walking service otherwise I will just do a quick potty break and spend rest of time doing typical care*** In addition to personal pet ownership, I have gained hands-on experience dog and cat sitting for others. This has included caring for pets in their own homes as well as managing routines that differ from my own, such as specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise needs, and behavioral preferences. I am comfortable caring for pets of different ages, temperaments, and energy levels, including puppies, kittens, senior pets, and animals that require extra patience or reassurance. My pet-sitting responsibilities have often included daily walks, playtime️, feeding, administering medications as directed, cleaning up after pets, and ensuring they feel secure while their owners are away. I also understand the importance of clear communication with pet owners and providing updates for peace of mind.

About: Animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I grew up surrounded by both dogs and cats, and caring for animals has been something I’ve genuinely loved for as long as I can remember. To me, pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and they deserve to be treated with the same love, patience, and kindness we would want for our own. I have over 15 years of dog-sitting experience and have had the privilege of caring for dogs with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs. I’m also a trained dog groomer, which has given me valuable hands-on experience with safe handling, grooming, hygiene, and understanding the little things that can make a pet more comfortable and happy. I’ve also completed veterinary assistant training, giving me additional knowledge and confidence when it comes to providing attentive and responsible care. When your pets are in my care, I treat them as if they were my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family members with someone else, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re safe, loved, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention while you’re away. Every pet is different, and I believe their care should be too. Whether your dog is happiest going on long walks, playing and exploring, relaxing on the couch, or simply getting lots of cuddles and companionship, I’m happy to follow their routine and give them the kind of care that makes them feel secure and loved. I’m also happy to accommodate special routines, individual needs, or behavioral quirks that make your pet unique. My goal is not only to care for your pets, but to build a trusting relationship with them—and with you. Your pets’ happiness, safety, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I would absolutely love the opportunity to meet you and get to know your furry family. I’ll do everything I can to make their time with me feel like a loving home away from home. 🐶🐱❤️ I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of quality time caring for your pets. I’m also in the process of starting my own in-home grooming business, so I’m able to build my schedule around the needs of the animals in my care. When I care for your pets, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in loving, trustworthy hands. I understand that your pets are family, and leaving them in someone else’s care can be stressful. My goal is to make that time away as easy and worry-free for you as possible. While staying in your home, I will respect your space, follow your house rules, and keep things clean and cared for. I’ll also make sure your pets’ normal routines are maintained as closely as possible, because I know how important consistency and familiarity can be to them.

“Caitlin was hands down amazing! I felt completely safe leaving our pup in her care. She was extremely communicative, offering tons of videos and pics daily so I could see how our Wake was faring in our absence. Wake loved her so much! I will absolutely utilize her for future! Thanks so much!”
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.
“Rebecca is one of the best. She takes such great care of Iris, our English bulldog. She goes the extra mile and always ensures we are kept up to date with her progress while being away from home. Iris enjoys her stay as well.”
“Larissa was amazing! She took in my dogs last minute for a trip. She provided frequent updates, photos, and videos. She is very kind and knowledgable about dog behavior and correction. The most important part is my dogs were happy and enjoyed their stay. I will be using her services in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Our Ziggy enjoyed her time at Brittany and Matt's place! She became fast friends with King and another Rover dog. Ziggy came back to us tired and happy, just as we had hoped. They are great communicators and have a wonderful fenced in back yard and easy to walk neighborhood for both play and walks. We plan on having them watch Ziggy again in the future.”
“Andrea was lovely! Our pups came back super happy and has a great time. Andrea did a wonderful job keeping us updated on the dogs and showed a lot of care. Would definitely recommend, thank you Andrea!”
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.
About: I helped trained animals, aided in births of new pups, bathed all different types of breeds, House sit animals when people go on vacation, I walk their animals and feed them when needed. I only work on weekdays on weekends I go to Virginia to visit and Tuesday it is on and off, I’m still in high-school I got one semester left to go so I would only be able to do night shift I have a black German Shepard I would take her to the park every week and I would give her bath 1-2 time a month and I would feed my dog 2 times a day one in the morning and one at late evening
“This was our fur baby's first overnight without the presence of any family member. Marcia was very accommodating as our baby doesn't do good in confined spaces and kennel is not an option for him. After a trial visit at Marcia's house he came home and was happy which made us feel relieved. We tried doggie daycare before and he came home super anxious and seemed depressed. We will definitely use Marcia's services in the future because we love seeing our baby happy. Thank you Marcia for opening your home to our fur baby.”
“My Pup was having the time of his life boarding over night. Aanchal was very good at communicating with me through my Pups stay and sent me videos and pictures. I would highly recommend using her for care and boarding.”
“Overall great experience booking with Alexander! We left Sadie (6 year old German shepherd) in his care for 8 days and each day we received updates and pictures. I would definitely book with again in the future.”
“Abigail was a wonderful sitter! I appreciated that she sent pictures and updates often. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our dog. We will definitely be using her as a sitter again.”
“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: 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.
“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!”
