“Carlita was a great sitter for my dog, she provided detailed updates via video and photos while my dog was in her care for 12+ days. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in capable and caring hands. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Deanna is awesome. Her pets and her kids were perfect for playing with our pet. She is a pro at what she does. She has a lot of five star reviews for a reason. She’s the best.”
“Lori was absolutely awesome! We left our dog Jack with her for the first time for 14 days and he did great! He came back to us happy and healthy! Lori sent us pictures and updates every day. She followed all our directions and kept him comfortable and safe. We definitely recommend her for any of your dog sitting needs! Thank you Lori!”
“We had an amazing experience! Our dog, Rocco, was so well cared for while we were away. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Rocco was happy, comfortable, and treated like family. We truly appreciate the love, patience, and attention he received. We highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and caring. Thank you for taking such great care of Rocco! 🫶”
“Boh had such a great stay with Alexandria! We loved all the updates we got during his stay and felt he was in great hands. She was very easy to communicate with and overall would highly recommend!”
“I chose Taylor to watch my cat while we moved houses. I needed someone who didn’t have any other pets to help reduce stress. She was absolutely amazing during this process. She was very helpful and kept me informed on how the stay was going throughout each day. I would highly recommend!”
“Kelly was fabulous with my two doodles. I had never left them with somebody before and because my oldest dog has sight issues I was very nervous, but Kelly put me at ease immediately. Every day she would send me photos or videos with a little snippet about how things were going. I looked forward to seeing the photos and I could tell that they were having fun running around her yard. It is obvious that Kelly loves dogs and I will definitely use her again.”
“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!”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Hanna! He enjoyed playing with her two dogs, and judging by the pictures we received, he loved getting attention from Hanna's little girls! He came home happy and tired from a great weekend!”
“We are SO grateful for Gina! Two months before a trip of ours, our 2-y/o German shepherd mix started showing concerning behaviors associated with anxiety and fear. We’ve been working with a behavioralist but had an international trip planned. We chose not to leave our pup with family in order to keep her separated from other dogs as we address her behavior. We found Gina on Rover and we’re so glad we did. Gina kept us up to date while we were away and demonstrated a commitment to Olive’s wellbeing and helping us to work with her on her behaviors on walks, etc. Olive had such a good time during her 9-day stay with Gina and we felt so comfortable leaving her there. We hope to book with Gina again in the future!”
“Karisa was awesome with my dog! She was extremely accommodating and flexible with pick up and drop off and was able to take him last minute thankfully! She sent pictures and took good care of my pup. Will be using again!”
“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.”
“I’ll definitely use Yanke again! This was my first time using a dog sitter and my pup didnt even look back at me once after dropping him off. She kept me updated with pictures and even paid attention to when he needed his pain medicine and gave it to him. Love her!!”
“Over all great! Took great care of my dog and updated me on her well being throughout the whole night! Even made her a scarf which was also so sweet! 10/10 recommend!!!!!!!”
“Arden went above and beyond to ensure Ty was comfortable during my quick trip to Raleigh. Her home and incredible fenced-in backyard are the perfect setup for him to get his daily exercise in! She was great about sending daily updates (with photos), and I could tell how happy he was the entire time, feeling right at home :) I cannot recommend Arden enough - thank you again!!!”
“Martine is absolutely wonderful. This was the 2nd year we left our 3 dogs for a week with them and it feels so good to go on holiday knowing that your dogs are in great hands!”

“Heather was able to help us out last minute so we could take a trip down to the coast to spend time with my grandparents. She did a wonderful job, she fed, watered and changed litter boxes for our two cats each day, and she gave detailed reports and pictures of them. She went above and beyond, often staying for extra time to play with our cats, and she even put on some cat TV for them and gave them some supervised time on our screened-in porch, two of their favorite things. I can't recommend Heather enough as a cat sitter, she really helped us out and we were able to relax and have a great vacation knowing that our boys were well cared for.”
“Erica was wonderful! She was very kind, reliable, and took great care of my cat while I was away. I really appreciated her updates and the peace of mind she provided throughout the stay. It was clear that she genuinely cared, and I would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!”
“Ashley went ABOVE AND BEYOND for my kitties and I. She helped me with things she did not need to do and made sure my kitties were loved and taken care of. I get anxiety when having to leave my babies due to past experiences and Ashley soothed all of my worries. I am so grateful for Ashley and would HIGHLY recommend her to everyone.”
“Sarah was amazing. She got to meet Prince a couple of days before her booking started. She took care of my cat, and sent us pictures to keep us updated on how he was doing everyday. She was extraordinary, we will definitely book her services again!”
“As always, Nicole took great care of Marlow, took care of everything we needed, and was extremely communicative and timely throughout. We're so impressed how she's managing to bring our sweet, shy girl out of her shell more and more, when no one else really can.”
“Amazing and intentional sitter! She made leaving our fur babies for the holidays stress and worry free. Great updates and photos of our cats, will definitely be booking with Laura again! :)”
“Excellent sitter - this is our rebook because the first time was great. Helena always takes time to find and spend a bit of time with our cats even during drop in visits and sends us photos. Very responsive to questions and great at communication. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Rodrigo did fantastic with the pets! He sent photos of all the animals and showed that all the needed chores for their well being were taken care of. He communicated effectively leading up to the visit. The cats were happy and taken care of and everything was in order when I returned home. Highly recommend!”
“My playful cat had such a good time with Joan -- I could tell in the multiple pictures of my cat totally absorbed. Joan is clearly an animal lover, and I felt comfortable and happy with her in my home.”
About: While most of my personal pet experience has been with dogs, I’m comfortable caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality and boundaries. I’m patient, gentle, and happy to follow your cat’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, and plenty of attention—or space when they want it! As a teacher and pet owner, I’m dependable, responsible, and take following care instructions seriously.
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
About: I’ve practically had pets my whole life and have been caring for dogs since I was 11 years old. Animals have always held a special place in my heart—I genuinely love being around them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience not just with my own pets, but also through my time working at the PetSmart PetsHotel, where I cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just making them feel at home, I truly enjoy every part of taking care of animals. I’m a teacher, so my summers are open. I’m usually free after 3 during the rest of the year. Weekends are usually open. My availability will be posted. My top priority is always building trust with your fur baby. Only then am I able to care for them to the fullest. I have an extra bedroom for pets that prefer their own space. I have a large back yard and also am located about 3 miles from a dog park that I frequent.
About: My true love for dogs. I’ve had dogs since I was born, so caring for them comes naturally to me, with patience, attention, and lots of affection. I work full time from Mon-Friday. I can walk dogs during the week after 7pm and on the weekends I am more flexible, however I work on Saturdays from 10am-2pm. I care for the pets by following their routing - feeding, walks, playtime and attention, so they can feel relaxed and secure in their own environment.

“I was so thankful Arden could make time for my last minute request. She was so communicative and tried hard to give river his walks but he wasn’t having it that day. She didn’t give up easily on him and tried again later, she was very kind about everything and I would try using her again when River is in better spirits.”

“We left Zeus with Jessica for a few hours one morning while we were in town and couldn't take him with us for an event. She was very responsive with communication, flexible with timing, and welcoming to Zeus. Her own dog was very sweet and friendly. We really appreciated all that she did to make our event less stressful and would recommend her to anyone in the area.”

“I highly recommend Carlita for any of your dogs needs. She is not only the best dog mom to her Snow, but she will treat your dog as her own. My Zoe is small and aging and it’s not easy for me to find someone I trust with her care. With Carlita, I’m glad to have found someone I can leave Zoe with overnight or to come visit her when I’m away. She adheres to all of my Zoe’s special needs (pj’s at night are a must, her food must be warmed, and she has some medications) and ensures her comfort and safety. She plays with her, sends me photos, and makes me aware of any concerns she notices with Zoe in my absence. She is punctual and communicates clearly and timely. Your fur baby is in good hands with her.”
“Rodrigo was very professional and communicative before and during the booking and made sure to answer any questions I had. The boys seemed to have a good time hanging out with him!”
“Trevor has been incredibly caring and loving to my puppy Leia, hes always been great, communicative and cared for her as well as I do. Would recommend trevor to anyone!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog. I booked her for a 30-minute walk every day around noon, and I told her I was very flexible with timing. She was always reliable and showed up when scheduled, but what really stood out to me was how much she genuinely cared about my puppy. Even though the walks were booked for 30 minutes, she constantly went above and beyond. Whether it was an extra minute, five minutes, or even ten, she never seemed rushed and truly spent quality time with my dog. After every walk, I didn’t just get one quick picture. I would get several adorable photos along with detailed updates about everything they did. She would let me know about their walk, any interactions they had, and even small thoughtful things like cleaning out his water bowl. You can tell Lauren is not just doing this as a job. She genuinely loves dogs and enjoys spending time with them. That kind of care, attention, and thoughtfulness is rare, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my puppy was in such good hands. I’m so grateful for her and will absolutely book with her again!”
About: What makes me stand out as a pet sitter is my ability to connect with animals of all personalities and needs. Whether it's a playful kitten, a shy senior cat, or a mischievous puppy, I tailor my approach to ensure comfort and happiness! I am currently a student at North Carolina State University but have plenty of time throughout my day/week to tend to animals and take care of them whether planned far in advance or with short notice I will do my best to make time for clients and of course their pet(s)! When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a calm and comfortable environment for your furry friend. Here’s how I ensure their well-being: Routine & Comfort: I respect your home and your pet’s established routine. From feeding schedules to playtime and exercise, I make sure your pet’s day runs smoothly and comfortably. Safety First: I always keep doors and gates securely closed to prevent escapes or accidents. I also ensure that the environment is free from any hazards or potential dangers. Communication & Updates: I keep you informed with regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you're away, knowing your pet is safe and well-cared-for. Trust & Reliability: I build trust by being punctual, reliable, and transparent. I always follow specific instructions from pet owners, whether it's about feeding preferences, medical needs, or behavioral quirks.

Ideal for working pet parents who need their babies taken care of in the evening and weekends. I respect everyone's wishes and desires for their pet family members. Love, care, and respect are the most important. My motto is to leave a person, being, or space better than I found it.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior pets—and started helping care for family pets around age 10. For the past 5 years, I’ve worked as a veterinary technician and was recently certified. My experience includes both emergency and general practice with small animals, along with some experience caring for exotic pets. This background has given me experience recognizing changes in behavior, administering medications, following medical instructions, and helping pets feel comfortable in new or stressful situations. In addition to working in veterinary medicine, my roommate and I have been fostering animals for the past 2 years through a local rescue. Fostering has allowed me to work with pets from many different backgrounds, personalities, and comfort levels while helping them adjust to new environments and build confidence. It’s been incredibly rewarding to help provide a safe, loving space while they wait to find their forever homes. One thing I take pride in is building trust with animals. Some pets warm up immediately and others need more time—and I’m happy to meet them where they are. I focus on making each pet feel safe, respected, and cared for at their own pace. When caring for your pet, I treat them like my own and make it a priority to follow your routine and preferences closely. Whether that means maintaining feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, or simply keeping things familiar and comfortable, I aim to provide reliable, personalized care. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pet and provide care you can feel confident in while you’re away. I currently work at an animal clinic in Holly Springs 4 days per week (typically 8:00 AM–7:00 PM, schedule may vary slightly). My lunch break is one hour (usually 1–2 PM or 2–3 PM), which allows flexibility for midday potty breaks and check-ins. Depending on your pet’s needs and comfort level, I may be able to: • Bring your dog with me to work (they would remain safely kenneled while I’m working and receive up to 3 potty breaks during my shift) • Stop by your home during my lunch break if you’re located within ~15 minutes of my workplace • Coordinate care plans ahead of time to make sure your pet’s routine is maintained Outside of work, I love spending time outdoors, going on adventures with my own pup, and making sure pets in my care get quality attention, enrichment, and exercise. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my priority. Every animal is different, and I adjust my approach based on their personality and needs. If your dog is social and excited to meet new people, we’ll jump right into playtime, walks, and building trust. If your pet is more reserved or nervous, I’ll move at their pace and give them time and space to feel comfortable. I believe in creating positive experiences and respecting each pet’s boundaries. With my experience working in veterinary medicine, I’m comfortable monitoring behavior, recognizing changes, and following care instructions closely.
“Joan is very patient with my somewhat aggressive dog. She arrived on time everyday and was super sweet with Tiger. She really goes above and beyond to bond with Tiger. I am definitely booking with Joan in the future.”
“Ashleigh took my Allie on a pretty good walk which is a great job considering she often doesn’t care too much for walks! She fed her as asked and Allie seemed content when I got home. I will certainly be asking Ashleigh for assistance ce in the future!”
About: I have had my own dogs and cats of every kind since I was in kindergarten! I dog sat and walked multiple dogs of family friends and neighbors throughout high school! In college I lived in a household with both cats and dogs together for 4 years. I currently live with a friendly pup, and care for my significant other's pup as well! I love to play, walk, or run! If your pup needs cuddles, they will sure get some! I am a nurse and my availability is contingent on my nursing schedule. 2-3 days of the week I will usually be unavailable but it’s not the same schedule every week. I have a pretty flexible schedule for services on my days off and can be available at short notice. I can visit, walk, or do overnight care for the animals! I have a decent sized house with currently no animals but a partner who can provide extra loving. There is plenty of outside yard space for pups to run around, and there is a dog park nearby. Walks or runs are available! Whatever your dog (or cat) may need, I'll be there to help!

“Kelly was fabulous with my two doodles. I had never left them with somebody before and because my oldest dog has sight issues I was very nervous, but Kelly put me at ease immediately. Every day she would send me photos or videos with a little snippet about how things were going. I looked forward to seeing the photos and I could tell that they were having fun running around her yard. It is obvious that Kelly loves dogs and I will definitely use her again.”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Hanna! He enjoyed playing with her two dogs, and judging by the pictures we received, he loved getting attention from Hanna's little girls! He came home happy and tired from a great weekend!”
“We are SO grateful for Gina! Two months before a trip of ours, our 2-y/o German shepherd mix started showing concerning behaviors associated with anxiety and fear. We’ve been working with a behavioralist but had an international trip planned. We chose not to leave our pup with family in order to keep her separated from other dogs as we address her behavior. We found Gina on Rover and we’re so glad we did. Gina kept us up to date while we were away and demonstrated a commitment to Olive’s wellbeing and helping us to work with her on her behaviors on walks, etc. Olive had such a good time during her 9-day stay with Gina and we felt so comfortable leaving her there. We hope to book with Gina again in the future!”
“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.”
“I’ll definitely use Yanke again! This was my first time using a dog sitter and my pup didnt even look back at me once after dropping him off. She kept me updated with pictures and even paid attention to when he needed his pain medicine and gave it to him. Love her!!”
“Arden went above and beyond to ensure Ty was comfortable during my quick trip to Raleigh. Her home and incredible fenced-in backyard are the perfect setup for him to get his daily exercise in! She was great about sending daily updates (with photos), and I could tell how happy he was the entire time, feeling right at home :) I cannot recommend Arden enough - thank you again!!!”
“Martica is truly the best! We’ve booked with her seven times, Including a week long stay when we were traveling internationally. She’s like a second mom to our pup Jaxon. She’s caring, trustworthy, super responsive, sends tons of pics & video and is flexible with our unpredictable military schedule. I never had to worry when Jaxon was with her—he was safe, happy, and so loved. We’re so sad to be moving and wish we could take her with us. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like family! Thank You Martica! 💕🐾”
“Jerry was great with the pick up and drop off of my dog he also made sure his dogs and mine got along before the rover start date began. Photos and videos were sent to me from time to time. I would definitely recommend Jerry again .”
“Andrea is a great sitter. She kept fluent communication with my husband and I and Pacho had fun with Andrea’s children. I do recommend her, and definitely we will use her again next time.”
“Nicole was fantastic to work with and sent regular updates on how our dog was doing. She was very accommodating with an adjusted pick up time and we know our pup had a great time!”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Brittany! I received multiple pictures and videos throughout the week, and my dog seemed thoroughly happy the entire time. Will definitely book with Brittany again!”
“Emily & Deron took great care of my baby golden retriever. They were prompt on messages and often send me short videos daily. My Max had great time with there puppies and cute cat. I will sure board Max with them again in future.”
