âIâm so glad we were able to find Amanda. She welcomed my Rottweiler as one of her own when we needed a last minute dog sitter.

About: Iâve been around dogs my entire life and have always had a huge love for animals. Over the years, Iâve cared for many different breeds and sizes, from Chihuahuas to Dobermans and everything in between. Iâm a passionate animal lover and advocate, and Iâve also fostered dogs through rescues. Fostering has given me a special place in my heart for fearful, shy, anxious, and misunderstood dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and comfort level, and I believe in giving them patience, kindness, and time to feel safe. As a registered nurse, Iâm comfortable administering medications and following specific care instructions. Iâm also comfortable with bathing and basic grooming needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love being around dogs. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. đžâ¤ď¸ Iâm a registered nurse and work 12-hour shifts, typically 2 days per week and every other weekend. On my weekends off, I have 5 days off in a row, which is when Iâm available for boarding. My availability is therefore every other week, making me a great fit for families looking for care during weekend getaways, short trips, or extended weekends. I provide a safe, loving, home-based environment where dogs can feel comfortable and cared for while their families are away. I have a large fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time and play, and I keep the number of boarding dogs limited so each dog receives plenty of individual attention. As a registered nurse, Iâm attentive to changes in behavior and comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering medications, and responding appropriately if an unexpected situation arises. I also have experience and knowledge in canine CPR and emergency first aid. I take the time to learn each dogâs personality, routine, feeding schedule, medications, and comfort level before their stay. I have a special soft spot for fearful and anxious dogs and believe patience and a calm environment are essential.

âFirst meeting Hope I knew she had a love for animals and felt Loretta would be in good hands. She communicated well while I was out of town and even brought in my trash can from the street. Also took care of the stray cats in my back yard. I would definitely recommend Hope for your pet sitting needs. Thank you for your help.â


âEleanor went above and beyond. On her second day visiting, she discovered that my water heater had gone out and my bedroom was flooded. She communicated promptly and stayed an extra hour to keep my cat safe while maintenance came. My cat enjoyed her company and playtime and I loved seeing the photos of him while I was away!â


About: I have fed and played with cats on multiple occasions, and I genuinely have a great love for them in my heart. I have 2 years of experience, and Iâm looking forward increasing that amount.

About: Iâve owned cats throughout my life and taken care of my friend's, roommate's, and neighbor's cats since high school. I have been told I know how to get even the shyest cats to warm up to me. However, experience with my own extremely sassy cat has shown me how to cater to all pet needs, including alone time in a hiding spot.
âCameron did a wonderful job with our dogs! She sent updates with each check-in, and her communication was great throughout. We will definitely choose her to watch our dogs again!â


About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages and temperaments, from playful kittens to independent seniors. I understand how important routine, patience, and gentle attention are to keeping cats happy and comfortable. Whether itâs feeding, litter care, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure each cat feels safe, loved, and right at home.

About: Your cat loves their home â so why uproot them? I come to your cat on their turf, keeping their routine, comfort, and independence intact. As an experienced cat caregiver and Humane Society foster, I understand that cats are creatures of habit. I'll make sure they're fed, watered, and have a clean litter box, but I also know how to give them the attention they actually want â whether that's a good play session, some quiet company, or simply respecting their space. Every visit includes a check-in update and photos so you can relax knowing your kitty is happy and well cared for at home.

âLexie was great! She was really accommodating for a late-night potty break and followed all the directions perfectly. I appreciated her reliability and care with my two fur babies. Communication was above & beyond. I would definitely book again!â

âKamie is awesome with our indoor and outdoor kitties! She is punctual, sends pictures, and sends nice little messages as well! I highly recommend her for all your pet needs!â

âWe could not have been more pleased with Ashton taking care of TC (The Cat). She kept in touch, took care of everything we requested AND more. We will definitely be booking Ashton again.â

About: Growing up we have always had dogs and cats in the house, I couldnât imagine not having each of them! Weâve had all different breeds and sizes that each lived 11-18 years, so I am used to taking care of old dogs and puppies. Iâve housesat/petsat for 7 different families over the years with dogs ranging from 8lbs to 210lbs!! I am currently a stay at home wife and I am working on school online. I have a lot of free time during the days my husband is at work. Mondays, tuesdays, wednesdays, and fridays 8am-6pm. I will care for the pets as if they were my own. I like to try and keep the known routine of the pet going which should be easy if I am coming into the home of the pet. Overall just loving and caring for the dogs or cats while their owner is away!

About: Hi! Iâm Jennifer, a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of my 5-year-old pup, Scooby. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and I truly believe pets are family and deserve love, patience, and attention just like any other family member. I also had the privilege of caring for another dog for 12 wonderful years before she sadly passed away from cancer, which gave me experience with dogs through all stages of life and taught me how important compassionate care is. Iâm currently a teacher assistant so during the Holidays, weekends and out of school for the summer Iâll be available any time. So I can make sure I give lots of love and attention to your love ones.

About: Hi! Weâre Jana and Kendric, a reliable pet care team with a shared love for animals. Having two sitters means your pets receive extra attention, supervision, and care while youâre away. We both have experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need a calmer, more attentive routine. Weâre comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, litter box care, and maintaining your petâs normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. We understand that every pet is different, so we take time to learn their habits, preferences, and personality. Whether your dog needs plenty of exercise or your cat prefers quiet companionship, we adapt our care to what makes them happiest. We also have experience following detailed care instructions and can administer oral medications if needed. Safety and communication are very important to us, so we always make sure your pets are supervised, secure, and well cared for at all times. While youâre away, we provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and in good hands. Our goal is to make your pets feel loved and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind. We treat every pet like theyâre part of our own family and look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! đžđśđą We (Jana and Kendric) work opposite schedules, which allows us to provide consistent care and supervision for your pets. Because of this, someone is home with your pet most of the time, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. Weâre able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins. Having two caregivers also means greater flexibility if your pet has specific needs or requires extra attention. Our goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and never left alone for long periods, while maintaining the routine theyâre used to at home. đžđśđą When caring for pets in our home or in a clientâs home, we focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. We follow each ownerâs instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medications, and any special needs their pet may have. For dogs, we provide regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and exercised. For cats, we make sure litter boxes are kept clean, feeding routines are maintained, and they receive playtime and affection while still respecting their space. We always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication. We keep environments secure, monitor pets closely, and send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while theyâre away. Our goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved. đžđśđą

About: I've lived with dogs my entire life. As an adult, I have had 4 dogs and I have fostered 2 dogs from the Humane Society. Currently, we have Luna - a 5 year-old Labradoodle, Poppy - a 7-year-old mini Goldendoodle and Cooper a beagle puppy. In our home dogs are family members and our two childen will love to spoil an cuddle your pups! Dogs are fed and let out in the morning before everyone leaves for school and work. Either myself or my husband is home around 4 pm to let the dogs out. They are fed dinner at 5 pm and usually spend the evening playing together with my children. Our yard is large and fenced in so the dogs love to run around and chase squirrels and bark at the deer. In our home, we will make sure your pup is fed and gets plenty of exercise. Dogs will have access to our couch and a dog bed. They can sleep in the bed or a crate depending on your preference. They will receive plenty of socialization as they will be living with our 2 dogs.
âThank you so much for taking care of Goose on such short notice! She was much calmer and well exercised after your walk; which was the goal. Much appreciated and highly recommended!â


About: Hi there! I'm a dedicated animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats through overnight pet sitting and as a foster home for my local Humane Society. As a foster caregiver, I've welcomed animals of all temperaments into my home â from shy, anxious pets who need extra patience and gentle reassurance, to energetic ones who need structure and play. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, manage different personalities under one roof, and provide the kind of attentive, compassionate care that helps pets truly thrive. Why Choose Me: My foster work means I'm trusted by my local Humane Society to care for vulnerable animals â and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog needs a cozy overnight partner or your cat needs a calm lap to settle in, I treat every pet like my own. I'd love to meet your furry family member! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet-and-greet. Being home full-time means your cat gets consistent, reliable care â no rushed visits squeezed between a busy schedule. I have the flexibility to accommodate early mornings, evenings, weekends, and last-minute requests. Your cat's routine stays intact because mine can adapt to theirs. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priority. My experience as a Humane Society foster home means I've been vetted and trusted to care for vulnerable animals â so you can feel confident leaving your cat in my hands. I treat every home I enter with respect and every pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own.

âLexie was so great with Brinkley. She spent a lot of time with her and gave her lots of attention. She was really accommodating with the specifics of walking her and even took her to Brinkleys favorite park! The cherry on top was that she brought a package inside for us, talk about going above and beyond. I would highly recommend using Lexie to care for you pups. Brinkley canât wait to walk with Lexie again đśâ

About: Hi all, Iâve had dogs my whole life and am currently living in a little hobby farm breeding labs (collecting chicken eggs and growing veggies!). Iâm in grad school and using this to pay for books and keep me sane! During the day hours work really well for me. Happy to walk and feed pets while you are at work! Getting them some play and sun are what I love to do. Iâd love to come to you! So give me your details and Iâll make it there. I am eager to move and play with your pets!

About: Hello all! My name is Melissa and I've been working with animals most of my life and have so loved being able to do so! On top of being a pet owner all my life, I've been an avid horseback rider which meant I was always barn sitting and pet sitting from a young age. I've cared for up to 20 horses and 6 dogs at one time, so no dog is too big :) I've worked with many sizes, breeds and personalities in dogs and I take a personalized approach when it comes to pet care. I have two of my own dogs, Oakley and Theo.If you're looking for an active household, we're definitely it! We spend most of our time on our farm and work from home part of the week. Pets have always been family to us and your pets would be treated and loved just like ours. Ask me about multi dog discounts or other pricing concerns! I have a hybrid work schedule, working from home part of the week. This gives me some flexibility for pet care during the week and on the weekends! We only keep one pet/one familyâs pets at a time. We live on a quiet road with tons of space to safely run and play
About: Hi, Iâm Ashton⌠full-time teacher/extra full-time animal enthusiast, and your petâs soon-to-be favorite human (other than you, of course)! Iâve been pet sitting on Rover since 2021, but Iâve been the go-to âCan you watch my dog/cat/goat?â friend for over a decade. Iâve cared for everything from purse-sized pups to dogs the size of small horses, plus cats, guinea pigs, and yes⌠actual goats. When Iâm not shaping young minds in the classroom, Iâm happily spoiling pets like theyâre my own â walks, snuggles, playtime, belly rubs, and enough photo updates to make your camera roll jealous. Pet sitting is a family affair for me: my husband occasionally joins in, and my 13-year-old daughter (aka the animal whisperer) is my secret weapon for winning over even the shyest pets. Please note if you do not prefer that I include my family during visits, that is not a problem and individual care will be arranged! The goal is to make you and most importantly your pet(s) feel safe and comfortable! If youâre looking for someone reliable, experienced, and genuinely passionate about animals â with a little humor sprinkled in â Iâd love to make sure your furry (or feathered, or hooved) family member feels safe, loved, and downright pampered while youâre away. Because Iâm a full-time teacher, my schedule is a little unique, but I make it work in a way that keeps your pets happy and cared for without feeling rushed. ⢠Weekends: This is when my calendar is the most open! Iâm available most Saturdays and Sundays for drop-in visits throughout the day â morning, afternoon, and evening. ⢠Weekdays (MonâFri): My time is more limited due to my teaching schedule. Iâm available early in the morning before work and again in the late afternoon/evening after school. To make sure I can be on time and give your pets the attention they deserve, I can only accept weekday visits for clients who are in close proximity to me. Because of my schedule, I currently only offer drop-in visits â no overnights or extended stays. This way, I can give your pets the focused care they need without overcommitting. Drop-ins are perfect for feeding, potty breaks, walks, litter box care, playtime, and plenty of love while youâre away. Even with my teaching career, pet care is a big part of my life. I take it seriously (while still having fun with your pets), and Iâm committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved until you get home. When you share instructions for your petâs care, I follow them closely â after all, you know your pet best. I provide detailed updates after each visit (with plenty of pictures!) so you can feel confident theyâre in good hands. Iâm happy to walk your pet around the yard or through the neighborhood, provide playtime if thatâs what they enjoy, and crate them in the morning or at night if thatâs part of their routine. My goal is simple: give you complete peace of mind while providing your pet with the same level of love, attention, and care they get from you.

âTalia & Austin took excellent care of Kobe. They gave me daily updates and send pictures. There dogs were extremely welcoming to Kobe and he even made a new best friend, Willow :)â

âJessica and her family were very pleasant to work with. Their house and approach felt responsible and safe for my dogs. I plan to use them again when I am in the area. Thanks!â

âWorking with Megan was great overall. My dog had her own room and access to the backyard. Stella seem to get along well with Megan and her dogs. I was sent regular updates and lots of photos. I felt very reassured. The seller was getting the best treatment available. Thanks, Megan. Will be back for more.â

âAshley and her family was amazing with our dog, Maverick! She kept us updated throughout his stay with pictures and messages, which really helped us feel at ease while we were away. Communication was super easy, and it was clear that Maverick was well cared for and happy. Weâll definitely be booking with Ashley again in the future â highly recommend her!â

âMorgan did great with Theo (who is still learning) & on such short notice, too! He seemed to have a great time while staying with her and her family! She made sure he would feel comfortable for his first time staying with a sitter while I was away. She was flexible with drop off and pick up timing which worked out great for my traveling purposes. She is experienced in dog sitting and made the process very easy. She sent pictures and updates during his stay which I also really appreciated.â

âNelcy was fantastic! She kept our two high-energy Aussies, and everything was great. She sent pictures and updates throughout the week and went out of her way to make our dogs comfortable. We would definitely board with her again in the future and recommend her to other pet parents looking for a reliable sitter.â

âShe did an amazing job taking care of our Bella girl! She sent lots of pictures! Bella came home smelling clean and seemed happy! Bella enjoyed playing with her sweet molly!â

âPaisley was great! Very communicative and easy to deal with. Gave us great updates while we were away and made coordinating pickup and drop off very easy. Definitely will hire her again!â

âThis is the first time using Rover, or anyone we donât personally know. Holly was amazing in all aspects! Welcoming, helpful, accommodating, caring, detail oriented, and understanding. The many pictures and updates she sent were reassuring of the obvious quality of care she and her family were providing.â

âIâm so glad we were able to find Amanda. She welcomed my Rottweiler as one of her own when we needed a last minute dog sitter. She communicated greatly the 4 days she had her by texting and sending me videos to ensure me that my big baby was enjoying herself. I definitely recommend her and will be using her for future vacations!!â

About: I have over four years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, including managing illnesses, administering medications, and recognizing when something isnât quite right. Through this experience, Iâve learned to pay close attention to canine behavior and body language, allowing me to pick up on subtle cues about a dogâs comfort, needs, and emotions. I understand how to respond calmly in emergency situations and how to help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether itâs encouraging a dog to eat, maintaining their routine, or simply providing companionship, I approach every dog with patience, attentiveness, and genuine compassion. I truly see dogs as family members and believe they deserve the same respect, kindness, and care that we give to people. My goal is to make every dog feel loved, secure, and understood while theyâre in my care. As a therapist who works from home, I am able to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. My schedule includes regular breaks, allowing me to attend to your dogâs needs, offer potty breaks, playtime, walks, affection, and companionship without long periods of separation. My home has a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as multiple rooms that can be used to give dogs their own space when needed. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and are treated like part of the family, creating a comfortable, home-like environment rather than a kennel atmosphere. Most importantly, I will be home the entire time your dog is in my care, ensuring they receive attentive supervision, comfort, and companionship throughout their stay.
âOur pups had a wonderful stay! Stephanie easily comforted Jade through a pretty bad storm. I received lots of communication and pictures. These dogs are whooped after all the fun they had!â

About: As early as I can remember, I have had a connection to animals. Since then, I have surrounded myself with them, from dogs, to horses, cats, chickens, snakes- you name it! I have 15+ years of professional animal care experience, prioritizing animal welfare, top-quality care, and overall wellbeing. I am also a skilled animal behaviorist, currently pursuing certification with the IAABC. Additionally, I have competed with my personal dog in dog sports like FastCAT. I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medication (oral or injectable), caring for behaviorally complicated dogs (separation anxiety, people reactivity, etc), or anything else your family member needs. PLEASE NOTE: I work full time, and I am out of the house during the following times: M-F: 7:30a-5:15p Sat & Sun: 6:30am-12pm Thanks for reading! Have a great day! I am currently most available on weekends, but can accept weekday care needs depending on your dog's needs. My available hours are as follows: M-F: 5am-7:30am, 5:15pm-8pm Sat-Sun: 5am-6:30am, 12pm-3pm I have a spacious fenced in backyard, and one very trustworthy and playful adult dog! Jinx is an absolutely wonderful teacher dog and friend. She gets along well with any dog, and will deliver fair, appropriate corrections if another dog is out of line. Your dog will have a new best friend and be treated like family in a clean, safe, and organized environment! When I am in your home, I am respectful, tidy, and I leave every space a bit better than I found it. I will follow your and your dog(s)' rules closely, ensuring a happy and low-stress time away for you!
About: Hi there! Iâm Hannah, a lifelong animal lover who enjoys caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. If my calendar shows I am unavailable, please go ahead and send a request anyway. I am unable to block off time periods of the day, so while I may be busy in the morning, I may be free that evening, and vice versa. Please note that I am moving to Winston Salem at the end of July/beginning of August. Therefore, any requests sent before then, I may not be available for. Drop in visits/walks - I work from home M-F 8-5. I typically can do my drop-in visits in the early morning, on my lunch break, and evenings after work. I can be flexible, though if another time is needed. Just let me know! House sitting - House sitting is similar to my drop-in visits. Breakfast/potty in the morning, lunchtime potty break, and then I'll head to your home after work to spend the evening/overnight with your pet. Please note, I do have a dog of my own who would likely come with me in the evenings for overnight. She is crate/potty trained and always looking for a new friend to play with - even cats! (i have two cats of my own that she grew up with). If you would prefer my dog to not come, thats ok too. Please allow the flexibility to go back and forth to ensure she can potty as well. Boarding - As mentioned above, I do work from home. If you'd like your pet to stay at my home, I can ensure they have consistent, around-the-clock care. I do have a two-story home with baby gates throughout and four bedrooms. If you'd like your pet not to interact with mine, that can be arranged. I treat every pet like familyâbecause they are! Whether your pet loves playtime, belly rubs, long walks, or quiet snuggles, I tailor every visit to their unique needs and personality. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and always attentive to your petâs well-being. Whether youâre heading out of town or just need a helping hand, Iâm here to make sure your furry friend feels loved and safe while youâre away. Letâs set up a meet & greetâIâd love to learn more about your pet! I am currently working full time and also a full time student. However, I got pretty lucky and do both fully remote which gives me the freedom to do other things such as pet sitting. If my calendar shows I am unavailable, please go ahead and send a request anyway. I am unable to block off time periods of the day, so while I may be busy in the morning, I may be free that evening, and vice versa. PLEASE NOTE **** I do have a dog of my own. If you are requesting a house sitting stay, please keep in mind that I will need to either come and go from your home to care for my own dog or have my dog with me during the house sitting stay. She is friendly with other dogs, cats, and is crate/potty trained. Your petâs comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I follow your instructions closely and keep their routine as normal as possibleâwhether that means sticking to a specific feeding schedule, giving medications, or making time for their favorite games and walks.
âTammera was absolutely wonderful! She was so kind, responsive, and always quick to answer. She kept me updated with pictures and made sure my fur baby was happy and well taken care of. She even brushed him, which was such a sweet extra touch! Tammera is a lovely woman and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. đžâ¤ď¸âŚAtt, Angel & Pritesh.â
