“The absolute BEST! I seriously don’t know if our pup wants to come home. Haha! She spoiled him rotten! So thankful for her care and loving on our sweet boy so well.”

“Abby loved her 4-day stay!!! Especially getting to do her favorite thing, sunbathing in the yard. Communication was fantastic, and you can tell Laura truly does love dogs. Abby can be shy at first, but had no hesitation in getting immediate pets & love during our meet and greet. Abby is my angel, and I had no concerns when I dropped her off. I knew she was in good hands, and she was.”

“I can't say enough positive things about my and my pup's experience with Brad. 1. Booking/Communication - From the initial booking, Brad was communicative and responsive ensuring that I would feel comfortable even before I dropped my pup off. 2. Drop off - At drop-off, Brad was extremely attentive to understand the unique needs of my pup especially as it pertained to his medication. In my moving around, I forgot to bring something my pup needed. Brad was extremely helpful in getting it resolved so that my pup's stay would be just fine. Additionally, Brad went out of his way to ask how, and what frequency, I wanted to be updated on my pup's stay. 3. Stay - My pup had a fantastic time staying with Brad and having pup siblings at Brad's house. I'm confident of this not only because, true to his word, Brad was not only communicative about what was going on each day (for the entire ~3wk stay), but he also sent pictures and videos with funny notes! I could see that my dog was active not only outside but inside the home, was playing well with the other dogs, and was being loved and snuggled daily. 4. Pick-up - The day of pick-up, my flight was delayed impacting my ability to pick-up my pup on time. Brad was completely understanding and was communicative to ensure that I had no worries. When I arrived to pick up my pup, all of the things I sent with my pup came home in great condition AND Brad sent me home with a treat that he had graciously been giving my pup as well! I could tell my pup was excited to go home but was sad to leave Brad and his new friends! Overall, we will DEFINITELY use Brad again and recommend him to anyone that is looking for someone to treat their pup like family when they have to go away. Thanks again, Brad!”

“Isabella is an absolute angel! I had just moved across the country and had no friends or family nearby when an unexpected urgent family emergency occurred requiring me to find my sweet Rue a sitter. Isabella was so incredibly kind and thoughtful. She really took care of my pup, so that I could focus on taking care of my human family. I cannot thank her enough. I received multiple daily updates including photos. Isabella responds very quickly and She is extremely easy to communicate and work with. She is honest and transparent. I feel Rue was very well taken care of. I was impressed when Isabella had to step away from the home for a couple hours and she took the time to check up on Rue via home cameras. I have already booked Rue’s next stay with Isabella!”

“Jessica was a great fit for my dog! She took her hiking, sent me pictures, and gave her lots of love! Jessica was flexible and great to work with. I recommend her and will use her again if I’m in the area!”

“I love feeling like my dog is in the best hands and care while I am away. I received frequent updates with pictures, letting me know how things are going, that make my heart happy.”


“Very commutative Send pictures Very fun going She did great with my lil brook for her first booking really appreciated the over communication with alexis!! She's the BEST 🥰 WILL book again thanks so much!!”


“Krissa was wonderful and I know our Murphy had a great stay! She sent us lots of pictures including Murphy making himself at home on her couches and her bed 🤣 Thank you Krissa!”

“My boys (2 of them!) can get separation anxiety, so drop offs are typically pretty difficult; but with Deborah, they waltzed right into her home! They came back EXHAUSTED from a weekend of play. I'm thrilled with how happy they are, and will definitely be using Deborah again!”

“Amelia and Grant took the best care of our baby for over a week! They sent pictures and videos of him cuddled up with them, playing, and going for walks. I know he had a wonderful time! Our dog can be nervous of new people, but he immediately warmed to them in the meet and greet. They have a beautiful home and neighborhood. They took note of all his special quirks haha. Our pup will definitely love to visit them again!”

“Courtney did an amazing job with our two dogs, giving regular updates along with photos and videos. The experience is always way less stressful than doing a boarding facility and our dogs love having the attention. Plus her backyard is amazing! I would not hesitate to book with Courtney again, she is the sweetest and truly cares about the dogs.”

“Susan was absolutely wonderful! She sent us numerous videos and pictures of the dogs each evening and even got them a Christmas present! The dogs really seemed to have lots of fun running around in her big fenced yard and they also loved her daughters! We were so glad we did not have to worry about Maggie and Minnie during our cruise!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Frances! She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and kind from start to finish. Our pups absolutely loved her — she gave them so much attention, sent us regular updates with photos, and made sure they stayed on their routine while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in loving, capable hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!”

“Sarah & Erik were fantastic with our golden retriever! There was amazing communication and picture updates, which were very appreciated as rhis was his first time staying overnight at someone's home rather than a boarding facility. He came back so happy, sweet, and well cared for. Thank you for everything, we will definitrly be booking again in the future!”

“Daisy was amazing. She communicated well while booking as well as while caring for my pup as her own. She sent videos showing my pup having a blast outside in his element. I would definitely use Daisy again as she was trustworthy and most importantly caring.”

“We just moved here and we were very nervous about leaving our babies. Christine was the best!!! They had so much fun and she kept us updated everyday! I will definitely ask her again and recommend her 100%! ❤️”

“Amy was amazing with my cats! She was super dependable and gave me updates and pictures for every visit twice a day for three days. My cats are very shy, but one of them even started greeting her for meal times which just shows how comfortable they were with her.”

About: I have taken care of furry family members for over 45 years. I have experience caring for the youngest and the oldest members.

“Christina was so great with my cats! She kept me updated on how they were doing and sent pictures. She took great care of our house and I would 100% use her services again.”


“Brianna was an excellent cat sitter! I have a former feral cat and wasn’t sure she would warm up to a sitter, but she let Brianna pet her on day one! Which is huge. It was a great relief to know my girl was in good hands while I was traveling abroad. I would use her to care for my cat again in a heartbeat.”


About: I have experience caring for cats with many different personalities, from playful and social cats to shy and independent ones. As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to provide a calm, safe, and comfortable environment where cats can feel relaxed and cared for. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, playtime, administering lots of attention and affection, and respecting each cat’s individual space and needs. I always make sure cats feel comfortable while their owners are away and provide reliable care, patience, and plenty of love.
“Katie took great care of our cats! The cats had specific dietary needs and she followed our instructions perfectly and treated our cats like her own. She provided detailed updates and our pets were happy and healthy when we returned home.”


“Trinity was amazing to work with! Cannot recommend her more. We posted the need late, but we were so fortunate that Trinity accepted the task...of our 4 cats, one of which needed medication daily. She even got our little Pepper to come out from hiding. She took the time and care to be sure they were getting their needs met. Can't say enough good about Trinity.”

“Veronica made sure my cats were fed and safe while I was away on a weekend trip! She sent super cute photos and left great updates on their behavior! Will use her again in the future!”

“Cheyenne was wonderful!! My kitty loved her and Cheyenne made sure to give her lots of love and attention during her visits. She was also very responsive and kept me updated everyday on how my kitty was doing. I definitely recommend Cheyenne to anyone who needs a cat sitter.”

About: What sets me apart is my ability to take pet care seriously without taking myself too seriously. I’m patient, observant, calm, and respectful of routines. I’m especially great with independent pets, seniors, shy animals, and anyone who needs a gentle, steady presence rather than chaos. I’m naturally nurturing, detail-oriented, and calm. I believe animals deserve consistency, patience, and kindness. I’m the type of person who talks to pets like they understand (because… they do), celebrates small wins like a voluntary cuddle, and never rushes trust. I take pride in being reliable, warm, and easy to work with. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule intentionally, allowing time for feedings, check-ins, play, and quiet companionship. I’m consistent, punctual, and flexible, and I never treat pet care like an afterthought. Its something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I treat every home and pet with respect and care. I follow instructions closely, double-check doors and routines, and keep environments calm and secure. I prioritize cleanliness, safety, and your pet’s comfort at all times. Trust matters to me! Both yours and your pet’s and I work to earn it every visit.
“I had a work trip and booked last minute. Isabella graciously accepted my booking. She made everything so smooth. Willing to work with my work schedule and deal with a 12-week-old puppy along with her regular bookings. Very pleasant, highly recommend!!”

“I have used Georgeann several times while I was in town. River loves the whole family and they have other dogs to play with and a big yard. She never leaves him in the heat and he gets lots of attention. She has great communication and is always on time for pickup. She is very responsive and responsible and is a very popular sitter for good reason.”

Building trust with both the pet and pet parent is why I continue doing this. I care for pets with patience, cuddles and play time. You know what is best for your pet and I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is taken care of! I'm currently working full-time at a library M-F. And I can stop by for lunch :) I understand that not all dogs can be left alone for 8 hours. So for those clients; Saturdays and Sundays would work best! You know what's best for your pet, and I would take care of them the same way you do. I love to ask questions to figure out what kind of care your pet is used to, so I can be consistent with that while you're away.
About: Hi! My husband and I are both hybrid workers, so we’re home often and have flexible schedules that allow us to spend quality time with the dogs we watch. We live in a two-story home with no kids or pets of our own, which means your dog will have a calm, quiet environment with plenty of space to play and relax. Since there aren’t other animals or distractions, we’re able to give your dog our full attention, lots of love, and care tailored just to them. My experience with dogs goes back to when I was 3 years old, and had my first family dog that I grew up with like a sibling! From that moment, I always treated dogs as part of the family. I rescued my second dog while I was in college from a shelter, and I also spent many years pet sitting for my neighbors, which was truly a dream job because I got to spend all day long playing with dogs. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the extra patience, gentleness, and routine they often need—whether it's administering medications, helping them up stairs, or just giving them a peaceful spot to nap. We work full-time, but have hybrid schedules where we work from home most of the week. We make sure to rotate our in office days so one of us is always home. We are able to provide potty breaks every hour! For exercise, our neighborhood is suitable for long walks. We also have a yard where we can play with your dog, as well as several nearby trails.
About: I am myself a pet parent. I provide dependable, loving care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and every owner feel confident that their furry family member is in good hands Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they need. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and updates to pet owners throughout the week. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax and feel like part of the family. I follow their regular feeding schedule, provide fresh water, and make sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection throughout the day. I also maintain a calm routine to reduce stress and help them adjust easily while they are staying with me. Any special instructions, including medications or dietary needs, are carefully followed to ensure each pet receives personalized care and attention.
“My Husky is so loved and well taken care of with Jennifer and Matthew. I work long days, and can trust that she's gotten all her zoomies out and is super happy when I pick her up. That's a huge relief for me knowing she gets her needs met while I'm working.”

“I come to charlotte twice a year and always in the need for a dog sitter for at least one day while I’m here for the white water center and she helped me feel completely comfortable with my baby boy In her care, she was responsive, accommodating and seemed completely confident in handling multiple dogs at a time! Would recommend her”

About: As a child and all throughout my adult years we always had animals in the house. They bring so much joy and comfort, often in times we didn’t know we needed it. I love all types of animals. I don’t mind any size or breed, they will all be loved the same. Leaving and trusting your pet with a stranger can often be scary, for both you and the pet. Which is why I make my visiting pets feel right at home by providing them with a large yard to run and play fetch, plenty of belly rubs and daily picture updates, leaving you with the comfort and security knowing your pet is being well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-baby!
“Absolutely wonderful. We needed someplace to keep our boys while we went to the Whitewater Center. Daisy's place was just down the street and mad everything so easy. Great communication, flexibility, and took great pictures. 10/10”

I’ve also cared for many cats over the years and know that every pet has their own routine and unique needs. I treat every animal like family and focus on providing reliable, loving care while keeping owners updated for peace of mind.

About: Hi! My name is Merrily, and I am a student at UNC! I have been an animal lover my whole life, growing up with two dogs and a cat! My dogs were a sweet boxer and a lively pug, so I have experience with both big and small dogs! I especially loved to take my boxer on long walks and runs, and cuddled and played with my pug. From taking care of my dogs throughout teenage hood, I gained valuable experience with senior care, administering oral and topical medication daily, dental care, bathes, and basic grooming. I also have dog and cat sat for family friends and neighbors numerous times, with duties ranging from senior care with a lab dog, to taking care (and easing) an anxious corgi. My favorite aspect of pet-setting is of course snuggles! I want to provide affection and comfort just as pets provide me with affection and comfort! I also thoroughly enjoy playtime and walks!🩷🐾 I am a full-time college student at UNC with much free time over summer break and am in between Chapel Hill and Gastonia! I live in the heart of Chapel Hill and Gastonia and have a car, allowing for flexible and punctual care. I make sure to not only keep up with pets but with the client's home too. When caring for your furry friend and home, fulfilling your needs is my main goal!

I love starting/ending my day with walks, fresh air, and quality time with animals, so caring for pets feels less like a job and more like something I truly enjoy. 🐾 all meet in the field to play together, we also offer a 30ft lead if you are uncomfortable with your dog not being fenced in. our apartment is small but is open enough for plenty of dog beds, toys, and/or a crate if required.
About: Hello.. I love pets and love helping others with their pet care needs when they can’t be there to care for them. Very caring and understanding and enjoy animals. I am the mom to eight girls who are mostly all in school with the exception of my infant. Looking to fill my day with something enjoyable while making a little money at the same time. I have bottle fed kittens and puppies from birth and taken care of older dogs who need meds and extra care. I’ve house sat for a few families on multiple occasions. I try to leave families with a sense of peace knowing that the pet family is well cared for while they are away. If you have any questions feel free to ask!
About: I can not remember a time in my life without a dog or a cat. I have taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was a teenager. There have been many pets that I have fed, walked, bathed, potty trained and groomed. I have always considered a pet as part of the family. I'm currently a stay at home mom. During the week, I usually only leave my home to pick up or drop off my kids from school or sporting events. On Sunday mornings I go to church with my family from 10 to 12. I have a fenced in yard with a very large fenced area within the fenced in yard, for dogs to run and play in without interruption or intervening pets or children. All animals are welcome to play in the yard but if they would rather be alone, then they can play in the doggie only zone. I have 3 dogs to keep your pet company if wanted. I also have my home set up to keep all dogs separated if needed. It is your preference as to if your dog spends the day with other fur baby friends or not. All dogs will be treated as family as long as they are here.

“The absolute BEST! I seriously don’t know if our pup wants to come home. Haha! She spoiled him rotten! So thankful for her care and loving on our sweet boy so well.”

“Abby loved her 4-day stay!!! Especially getting to do her favorite thing, sunbathing in the yard. Communication was fantastic, and you can tell Laura truly does love dogs. Abby can be shy at first, but had no hesitation in getting immediate pets & love during our meet and greet. Abby is my angel, and I had no concerns when I dropped her off. I knew she was in good hands, and she was.”

“Isabella is an absolute angel! I had just moved across the country and had no friends or family nearby when an unexpected urgent family emergency occurred requiring me to find my sweet Rue a sitter. Isabella was so incredibly kind and thoughtful. She really took care of my pup, so that I could focus on taking care of my human family. I cannot thank her enough. I received multiple daily updates including photos. Isabella responds very quickly and She is extremely easy to communicate and work with. She is honest and transparent. I feel Rue was very well taken care of. I was impressed when Isabella had to step away from the home for a couple hours and she took the time to check up on Rue via home cameras. I have already booked Rue’s next stay with Isabella!”

“Jessica was a great fit for my dog! She took her hiking, sent me pictures, and gave her lots of love! Jessica was flexible and great to work with. I recommend her and will use her again if I’m in the area!”


“Very commutative Send pictures Very fun going She did great with my lil brook for her first booking really appreciated the over communication with alexis!! She's the BEST 🥰 WILL book again thanks so much!!”


“Krissa was wonderful and I know our Murphy had a great stay! She sent us lots of pictures including Murphy making himself at home on her couches and her bed 🤣 Thank you Krissa!”

“My boys (2 of them!) can get separation anxiety, so drop offs are typically pretty difficult; but with Deborah, they waltzed right into her home! They came back EXHAUSTED from a weekend of play. I'm thrilled with how happy they are, and will definitely be using Deborah again!”

“Amelia and Grant took the best care of our baby for over a week! They sent pictures and videos of him cuddled up with them, playing, and going for walks. I know he had a wonderful time! Our dog can be nervous of new people, but he immediately warmed to them in the meet and greet. They have a beautiful home and neighborhood. They took note of all his special quirks haha. Our pup will definitely love to visit them again!”

“Courtney did an amazing job with our two dogs, giving regular updates along with photos and videos. The experience is always way less stressful than doing a boarding facility and our dogs love having the attention. Plus her backyard is amazing! I would not hesitate to book with Courtney again, she is the sweetest and truly cares about the dogs.”

“Susan was absolutely wonderful! She sent us numerous videos and pictures of the dogs each evening and even got them a Christmas present! The dogs really seemed to have lots of fun running around in her big fenced yard and they also loved her daughters! We were so glad we did not have to worry about Maggie and Minnie during our cruise!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Frances! She was incredibly reliable, communicative, and kind from start to finish. Our pups absolutely loved her — she gave them so much attention, sent us regular updates with photos, and made sure they stayed on their routine while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in loving, capable hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!”

“Sarah & Erik were fantastic with our golden retriever! There was amazing communication and picture updates, which were very appreciated as rhis was his first time staying overnight at someone's home rather than a boarding facility. He came back so happy, sweet, and well cared for. Thank you for everything, we will definitrly be booking again in the future!”

“We just moved here and we were very nervous about leaving our babies. Christine was the best!!! They had so much fun and she kept us updated everyday! I will definitely ask her again and recommend her 100%! ❤️”

“Biggie and our pack just moved cross-country and needed a last-minute sitter for him while we viewed some homes. Jennifer and Matthew were fantastic, and so kind. They promised to take care introducing him to their kids and another dog, kept communication open, and sent photos that showed how happy he was running and playing. As much as I missed him, I can tell he had a blast with them. We look forward to the next visit, thank you both for making our first Rover experience in NC such a good one.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every animal in my care. I currently have a Husky, a Pitbull, and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. From active dogs that love long walks and playtime to cats that need a calm and caring environment, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve also cared for many cats over the years and know that every pet has their own routine and unique needs. I treat every animal like family and focus on providing reliable, loving care while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. My passion for animals truly shows in the patience, care, and attention I give to every pet I meet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I work full time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need throughout the week. I’m also available on weekends, which gives me even more time to focus on providing quality care and companionship. As a pet owner myself with a Husky, a Pitbull, and a cat, I’m already used to maintaining feeding schedules, exercise routines, and giving pets lots of love and attention every day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm environment, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe, and caring environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Since I have experience with both high-energy dogs and cats, I’m comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel relaxed in their familiar environment while also keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I provide updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and in good hands.
About: I work remote so I am able to spend most of the time with your animals. I have experience working with aggressive dogs and would love to hang with your doggos no matter their temperament. My own dog is reactive to some so I am prepared to handle anybody! I have experience with senior dogs as well as I cared for my own childhood dog before he died. I ADORE cats and have lived with them all my life so I am happy to care for them as well. I am picky about the care my animals get so I understand the details that may be important to you. I also have experience caring for small animals, rabbits, birds, fish, and reptiles! Just let me know how to help! I have a dog and three cats myself so I understand working my day around their needs. When I’m taking care of new friends I make sure they get the priority care that they need whatever their schedule may be. If they are staying with me, I have a fenced in back yard so they will have full roam here. I do ask they be crated here for the comfort of my 3 cats and in case they don’t get along with dogs. My worst fear is an animal getting out on my watch so I’m extra careful if I’m at your house.
“Our dog did great at Amanda’s place for a long stay! Her place is great with a large fenced in yard and everything a dog could need. While we were away we got regular photos and updates that she was settled in and doing well, and making friends with her dog Oakley. Will definitely be using Amanda again!”
