“I could not have asked for a better sitter for my puppy! I had to get someone to watch my pup last minute and during the holidays and luckily Adriana was able to help! She had great communication with me and took great care of my 4 month old puppy.”
“Lauren was fantastic. My dog was tired & happy after a fun weekend stay. The pictures through the weekend also made my whole experience so enjoyable. Thank you for everything!”
“This was our dogs first time boarding with Sloane and everything went smoothly, and we will definitely use her services again. She provided multiple updates and pictures while we were gone and let us know specifics of how Trudy was doing. We really appreciated her specific feedback and timely responses when needed.”
“Leaving our Ollie with Kerri for the 7 days we were out of town was the BEST decision we could have possibly made. She is super easy to communicate with. She has studied animal behaviors so I knew that no matter how many dogs she had (it was the 4th of July week-busy!) she would make the right decisions with how to handle our girl. She would send pictures and videos so we could see our girl. Kerri is very professional yet extremely easy to talk to and oh so friendly. Just use her-she’s the best. We didn’t know if Ollie would want to come back home to us bc she had so much fun at Kerri’s! Ha!”
“Rebecca was a great sitter. She was always prompt to my messages. Most importantly she took great care of Zoë for me! She is highly recommended if you are looking for a great well rounded sitter. 5-Stars!”

“She did a great job caring for my dog. She made her feel right at home. Would definitely recommend her, and hopefully in the future if i need a sitter again she will be available. Thank you Amanda!!!”
“Vanessa is responsive, caring and diligent about your pet’s needs. She is terrific and I feel very comfortable leaving our 4 year old Cavachon with her knowing he will get good walks and plenty of love.”
“Brianna C. Took excellent care of Nina. When I drop Nina off I know that she will be more than well looked after, she's going to have fun! Watching Nina play with new dog friends and enjoy her self eases my mind, making it so I can focus on my trip and not have to worry.”
“Laura was wonderful in looking after our little guy. She was very responsive in answering our questions leading up to our puppy's stay. Furthermore, she made us feel very comfortable having him stay with her as she sent pics throughout his stay. Will definitely use Laura in the future. ”
“Diego was wonderful watching our dog while we were out of town. He shared photos and videos, and ensured she got lots of fun and playtime. Would definitely consider having Diego dog sit again!”
“Hanna treated my senior pug like family. She sent multiple pictures and videos each day to keep me updated on his day to day activities while I was travelling for work. I have since rebooked with Hanna twice for a total of about 5 weeks and would recommend her to anyone looking for an attentive, responsive dog sitter.”
“I can't say enough good things about Luis! He took amazing care of my dog while I was away. My pup usually gets a little anxious when I'm gone, but with Luis, he was calm and happy the whole time. Luis sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. He truly goes above and beyond to ensure that pets are comfortable and well taken care of. I highly recommend Luis to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!”
“Sally and her family were so gentle and loving to my dog for the holidays! They welcomed him into their family and let him join in on their festivities. Sally sent pictures almost everyday and had great communication. I will definitely use her again!”
“My heartfelt thanks to Nikki for taking care of our 2 year old dog Zola during our month long overseas vacation. She took care of Zola like her own and pampered her so much that, Zola wants to go back to Nikki's house. This was our first time leaving Zola for such long duration and we were worried. However, Nikki kept us regularly updated with messages, photos and videos of Zola which helped us to complete our vacation with peace of mind. We are ever thankful to Nikki.”
“I can tell my pup loved her stay with Cecilia and her pups, she didn't want to leave! She took her on walks and adventures and also listened to my requests for using her cone. Lovey was well stimulated and attended to during her stay.”

“Helena is the absolute best! We truly can’t thank her enough for caring for our four legged family members while we were away.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Six Forks

About: We’re an active, dog-loving couple who miss having a furry friend around - so we put all that energy into the pups we host. We raised a golden retriever for over 12 years, through eight different homes, which taught us how to stay flexible and make any space feel like home for a dog. We’ve also cared for the fur-babies of our friends and family over the years, so medium and large breeds are totally our comfort zone. Carleigh works from home every day, and John is home four days a week, meaning your dog gets tons of attention, playtime, and company. We’re not ready for a new pup of our own yet, but we love having short-term four-legged guests to spoil. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because one of us is almost always home, so your dog will get tons of attention, supervision, and company throughout each day. We love taking breaks to go on walks, play outside, or just hang out with a furry friend while we work. Since we’re already active and outside often, adding a dog to our routine is fun and effortless. We treat every dog like a temporary member of the family. Our home is clean, calm, and set up to be dog-friendly, especially for medium and large breeds. We pay close attention to routines, instructions, and any quirks or preferences your dog has. We’re big on communication - you’ll get updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. Whether it’s play time, relaxing, or sticking to their normal schedule, we make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for from the moment they arrive.
“I had a last minute scheduling issue with taking my cocker spaniel Silas in for his surgery. Alexandria was willing to adapt her schedule to fit our needs. She got up very very early and dropped him off at the vet for me! She was kind and respectful, patient and easy to talk with. I can't tell ya how much peace of mind it brought me, knowing Silas was in good hands.”
About: Ive taken care of dogs for my friends and family since college and until recently, had an amazing little Maltese named Sawyer for 14 wonderful years. After his passing earlier this year, I have had 3 different housesitting jobs for my friends which has shown me how much I miss having an animal companion, but I am just not ready to get another one. The max number of dogs that I have ever watched was four but depending on temperament, I could be comfortable with more. By working from home, I’m able to care for dogs in my home or travel to your home, depending on your preference. My typical work schedule is 8:00 AM–5:00 PM, and because I work remotely, I have plenty of flexibility throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and, of course, lots of cuddles. I’m happiest when I’m curled up with a good book and a fur baby nearby. My experience with pet sitting has primarily been with families whose pets are not crate trained, so I’m very comfortable with pets having access to furniture and sleeping in the bed. The animals in my life have always been treated as part of the family, and I’m comfortable accommodating different routines and personalities. I have experience caring for dogs who are graze eaters as well as dogs who follow a specific feeding schedule. Before he passed, my little guy was taking several medications, so I’m also comfortable administering medications and keeping up with specific timing and routines. I live in a ranch-style townhouse with a yard, although it is not fenced in. Because of this, I would always follow the owner’s instructions regarding outdoor time and would not allow a pet outside unattended.
“Absolutely amazing caregivers!!! My little angel had a blast with Yamy and Alfonso. They are completely understanding and gentle to my little fur baby. 110% booking again!!”
“This was my first time having Rebecca care for my dog, Molly. Both Molly and I were very happy with the experience. Rebecca was very good communicator and sent pictures multiple times during the day. Molly was happy and a little reluctant to leave. We will definitely use Rebecca again when the need arises.”
About: I am just your average mother to dogs, cats and little humans running around. I am also your local dog/cat groomer. I have 10 years of experience and don’t plan on stopping anytime soon! I am very confident on handling all sorts of pets, pets with special needs, senior pups, puppies, pregnant mommas, unfixed fur babies and of course pups who might need a little discipline. I am pretty observant on behavior and can tend to whatever needs. I am very active(having 2 boys will do that) but I can also lay back. This also isn’t my first rover account. I used to partner with rover a few years back but since having kids and life changes, had to recreate a new updated account. I’m currently a stay at home momma during the week and groom during the weekend. My hubby is home weekends so pets are never left unattended. I have a fenced yard and love to be outdoors if weather permits. I also won’t pass up a cuddle session if thats what decided for the day <3
“Jack had an amazing first day with Lauren! He was worn out from all the fun! Lauren stayed in touch with pictures and let me know how Jack was doing. We just moved to the area and I'm thankful we've found Lauren!”
About: I am an animal lover, since I was little I have always had dogs and cats in my house and I have loved them as my family, I love spending time with them, playing, giving them attention and their company, this job seems excellent to me because I will be able to do something that I like that is taking care of pets and you have nothing to worry about because I know how important that little family member is for you I only work 3 hours in the morning so your pet will always be under great care. I have plenty of time to walk your pets and spend time with them:) My house is a very safe and very comfortable house for your pet. I will follow all the care instructions for your pets of course and make sure they are comfortable.

“Aspen really enjoyed her time with Deanna! She got lots of exercise, and instantly started napping once she got in the car! She also made sure to send lots of pictures, was responsive to my messages, and inviting of me to reach out at any point. I will definitely re-book with Deanna in the future, and recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!!”
“Karisa is amazing! We sent our little fur baby with her for 3 days of doggie day care and he had a blast! He spent all day playing, snuggling and would come back ready to go to bed after a long day of play! Karisa is very knowledgeable and incredibly responsive! She sent us pictures and videos during Everest’s stay and we were happy we felt at ease knowing he was in her care! Will def book again and I recommend her to anyone who wants a great sitter for their fur baby!!”
“Zainab took wonderful care of Niko, even wiping his paws coming inside from the salted sidewalks. She truly cares for the dogs she sits and sends adorable pictures and lovely updates. Niko came home a happy boy :D”
“Dawn is a great dog sitter. She took lots of photos, and her dog Rice was a wonderful host too! She took care of Ruby and Toasty for the day in her home as a "trial run" to make sure all 3 dogs were compatible so we will definitely be using her in the future for extended stays. Highly recommend.”
“Jessica was great! Fast response to texts, and she was incredibly kind and understanding while we tried to get our act together with booking on our end. Oreo was very well taken care of! From the pictures she really enjoyed her time with Jessica’s pup as well! I highly recommend Jessica.”

“Adreanna was great! She took excellent care of Tonto and was very easy to work with throughout the entire booking.

I’m sure she’s great with all dogs as well. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“I was fortunate enough to live walking distance from Shana and my new 5 month old rescue pup and I walked down to say hi. She is a genuinely nice person and truly enjoys loving and caring for dogs.

Lauren was fabulous on communication with me from before we left, while we weee gone and even after. Will definitely use Lauren for future dog walking/watching needs!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years and have always been the person friends and family trust with their pets. I’m also a dog mom to two pups of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for them. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities, including puppies and dogs who need a little extra patience or reassurance. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, basic training reinforcement, medications, and lots of attention and cuddles. I’ll always treat your dog like they’re one of my own and make sure you get plenty of updates while they’re with me. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be home throughout the day, so I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and lots of attention. I already plan my days around my own two dogs, so adding another pup into the mix is easy and something I genuinely enjoy. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have two friendly dogs of my own and understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m happy to follow whatever schedule and rules your dog is used to, including feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, or giving them their own space when needed. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of pictures and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pup is safe, happy, and getting lots of love.
