“I have to admit, I had never used rover it was last minute. My usual boarders we're full, but i came across Valerie and her profile made me take that chance. Im so glad i did she was amazing! She sent pics everyday, she made my trip more relaxed and i was at ease. I will use her services again my dogs loved her.”
“Absolutely amazing! Our new dog is very anxious, large, and full of puppy energy but Melissa and her husband handled her wonderfully. She kept in constant contact with pictures and updates showing that our Indie girl was having a blast!”
“Gracie loved socializing at Lorraine’s for the week while we were out of town. We appreciated the updates and videos. We will use Lorraine next time we are out of town.”
“Jeremy and his family are so great with our Roxie girl! They take such good care of her, communicate well with us, and feel like an extension of Roxie’s family. We can’t wait for them to watch her again soon!”
“Renee was so awesome and helpful in watching our pup Migo on a last minute short notice. She was very responsive, available to meet and even flexible with my schedule, and sent us pictures and updates of our dog throughout the stay. He seemed to have a great time with her and we hope that he can stay with her again in the future!”
“Carol and her family were very welcoming of Remy and they took him in right at the last minute as another dog sitter did not work out due to other dogs being a little aggressive. Carol and her family took a risk having a new dog that has not been introduced to their dog and I am so grateful of that. When I came back to pick up Remy they had nothing but compliments of how well behaved my dog was as I knew my dog is very well behaved and gets along with everybody. I highly recommend Carol and her family for anybody looking for a dog sitter.”
“Scott and Heather took great care of our boys, Elvis and Emmitt. We knew they were going to be in good hands after meeting them. We received so many great pictures during their stay and it was obvious our boys were loving all of the attention from their family. We were very pleased with the care they received and look forward to booking with them in the future.”
“Amanda was great with communication & very flexible when I had something last minute come up- she was able to keep our pups for an extra night on short notice. Our dogs came back very happy & tired!”
“My pup had a wonderful stay with Alcino and Diana! He was loved, cared for, and treated like family. I received daily pictures with captions explaining what my pup was up to and the sitter was very responsive during my pup’s boarding. Would 100% book again. Thank you for taking such good care of Tucker!!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of George due to last minute wedding out of state! Received so many picture updates which were welcomed since he usually is by my side 24/7.”
“Sonia and Jeff are phenomenal! We have used them exclusively for nearly two years now for our beagle/hound mix, Rosie. Rosie has a lot of apprehension when going places like the vet or grooming appointments, but literally cannot wait to get out of the car when we get to Sonia and Jeff’s and is so excited to see Jeff! We always get updates about her stay and can tell that she’s really cared for. She comes home happy and tired!”
“Second time our puppy stayed with Bryan and she had a blast from what we could tell! Bryan gave us updates and sent lots of photos. We will stay with Bryan again in the future!”
“Mitzi and her family were wonderful! Max made himself right at home and had lots of fun with his new furry friends. Mitzi sent videos and pictures every day so I could see how happy he was. We will definitely be using Mitzi again for boarding Max. Thank you!”

About: I've taken care of my own pets and many of the pets of family, friends, and neighbors for over twenty years. I also have a service dog who I've trained mostly on my own, with refinement help from a professional, so you can feel confident that your fur family will receive exceptional care and attention from a patient and knowledgeable handler. I have an open and flexible schedule every day of the week, so it shouldn't be difficult to match what you need for your pet(s)! I have a 4yo poodle service dog who would only need to be with me for overnight stays or if your dog(s) would like a mid day playmate. He's incredibly sociable and energetic when off duty. Either together or solo, I will make sure to follow any routines or specific instructions we discuss and care for your fur family as if they were my own.

About: I’ve helped to take care of our dogs since I was 13 and have taken care of Lu guinea pigs for the past 4 years. I love all animals and I am planning on pursuing a career in veterinary science. I am currently searching for a part time job. Right now I am available on weekends and in the mornings and afternoons of weekdays, except for Thursday. I have a fenced in yard for my dogs to run around in. I am available to walk and play with your dog when needed. I am also capable when you are out of town, to visit to feed and let out/ play with your dog.
“I've never used a pet sitting service before and had some reservations about doing so. The Rover app was recommended by a trusted family member and I chose Alexander based on his excellent reviews. I was immediately at ease after his meet and greet before we needed to leave town. I couldn't be happier with our experience!!! Alexander was consistently very responsive with excellent communication prior to our trip and graciously welcomed my worried mom check list for each of our critters. We received detailed daily reports on each pet with lots of reassuring observations and individual attention for each pet. I highly recommend booking with Alexander! We will absolutely book with him for future visits!!!”

“Nicole is a gem. She said Chewee was a little nervous at first, but warmed up to her. She even sent a video to show her interacting with Chewee. I greatly appreciate her patience with our precious girl. We will have her over again tomorrow!”
About: I’ve been passionate about caring for animals my entire life and have owned dogs for as long as I can remember. Professionally, I have nearly 9 years of experience in the pet care industry, including working at a veterinary hospital and currently serving as the General Manager and Co-owner of a dog daycare, boarding, grooming, and training facility. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’m experienced in administering medications, including insulin injections, oral medications, IV fluids, topical treatments, and more. Whether your pup needs extra medical attention, a structured routine, or simply lots of love and companionship, I’m happy to provide the care that’s best for them. Every pet is unique, and I believe in treating each one like they’re part of my own family. From long walks and playtime to belly rubs, booty scratches, and plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and loved. My goal is to follow your routine and preferences so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away! I currently work full time managing/co-owning a dog kennel, but I work early mornings until about 1pm and create my own work schedule so can be flexible! I love every dog that I meet and care for like they are my own fur babies. My dogs personally are spoiled brats and I feel like that is the only right way to dog mom haha!
“Marissa was awesome with my cat, Oscar. She was super responsive in getting a short notice drop-in organized for my long weekend away. Oscar liked her right away and she was totally at ease with him. While I was away she was on time and communicative about how Oscar was doing. I would absolutely book Marissa again!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since my early teens. I have a strong passion for dogs and love to care for them. I am very accustomed to dogs with behavior issues and bad anxiety because my own dog struggles with that. I can also handle both small and large dogs. I love taking my dogs on walks and also occasionally will find an easy trail to hike on with them. I would love to bring your dogs on nearby trails or stick to easy walks based on the dogs energy levels. I do stay overnight and house sit if requested. I’m currently working part time (short hours 2 days a week) so i’ll have plenty of time to play with and look after your pups! I unfortunately cannot care for your dogs at my own home because one of my dogs is not friendly towards other dogs, but I am more than happy to watch your dogs at your home! I can stay overnight with your dog if requested.
“Karra is great. She was flexible with us when I messed up the timing in the app. She communicated all the time with us letting us know how our dogs were doing and she was super attentive. Our dogs loved her. We definitely will use her services again.”

“Rachel is a super star sitter! She watched Shasta all day for 3 days while I was in Raleigh working from out of town. My pup Shasta loves her. Normally he doesn’t want to leave me but he walked off happily with Rachel from my hotel where she kindly met us every morning and evening for drop off. Rachel’s communicative and easy to work with. Highly recommend.”
“Athena was in her element - running, playing, and enjoying the companionship of her canine relatives! What a special day and place for Athena to spend time being a ‘puppy’ with such joy. Thank you Melissa”
“Skirla (aka Sorel) is great! Sushi normally barks and growls at everyone but not her! I feel comfortable leaving my baby with her for my week long vacation and will book again when the need arises.”
“Charles is truly a dog person! He takes the time to get to know them and rolls with the punches (or should I say barks, especially in my dogs case!). He’s very caring with the dogs and I felt 100% comfortable leaving my dog there, and since she’s a rescue it was her first time going to a place like this. I highly recommend Charles and Wag N wheels. Great people and great facility!”
“Booked last minute when previous sitter backed out night before doggy day care was to begin. They also have dogs which worked out even better since my pup loves to play. This family is my “go to” when I come up to visit. Can’t thank them enough for helping us for this New Year holiday.”
About: Dog momma experienced with training (no-pull walking, basic manners), all cat and small animal care, giving medications, and volunteering in shelters. My calm, assertive approach will keep your creature happy and on their best behavior in your absence. I've a beagle mix, age 6. He’s friendly, playful, gentle and cuddly with non aggressive dogs. We can welcome your dog in our home for boarding or daycare, or I can care for your dog, cat, or barnyard or small animal in yours for short visits, walks, feedings etc. We have a large shade and sun fenced yard, and a single level home that revolves around dog care. Plenty of clean space, toys, mini pool, and good walking routes. I can care for your pet in your home if reasonably accessible to me.
“Kerri and her husband are amazing dog sitters. They sent me pictures and videos during the day and I could see that Ollie had a great time. I highly recommend Kerri and will bring Ollie back when I need another doggy day care.”
“WE had our first experience using Rover . We were extremely satisfied. Our dogs had a meet and greet previously. This was their first stay. They were very excited when we got there. We got pictures during the day. We have booked with them again for a longer stay. We will be very comfortable leaving our dogs there for an extended stay. We felt like Jeff and Sonia were very involved with the dogs and this wasn't a side job.. which was comforting. Highly Recommend”
About: What sets me apart is that I’m not just a pet lover. I’m a vet student in the making. Caring for animals isn’t just a hobby for me, it’s part of my future career. I take the time to really get to know each pet’s personality and needs, whether that’s helping a puppy burn off energy and learn basic manners, or giving a senior pet the extra patience, comfort, and gentle care they deserve. Because I’m passionate about animal health, I pay close attention to things like eating habits, energy levels, and behavior changes, so I can spot if something seems off and communicate that to owners right away. I’m also comfortable handling a variety of breeds, temperaments, and special needs.nFor me, pet sitting isn’t just “watching” animals it’s making sure they’re safe, happy, and thriving, while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in caring, capable hands. Pet care is something I fit naturally into my day. My mornings usually start with feeding, fresh water, and a walk or some playtime to make sure pets start the day happy and active. If I have classes, I plan my schedule so I can come by for potty breaks, belly rubs, and some one on one time in between. In the evenings, I love taking longer walks, heading to a park, or just spending time playing or relaxing together. Weekends are perfect for extra adventures like exploring trails, visiting pet-friendly spots, or giving them some extra grooming and attention. For me, pets aren’t something I try to “fit in” around my day they’re part of it. I love making sure they get the care, attention, and love they need, no matter how busy my schedule gets. Whether in my own home or in a client’s home, my priority is to create a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment for pets. I pay close attention to a pet’s personality, habits, and routines so I can adapt my care to their comfort level, whether that means providing a quiet, calm environment for shy pets or engaging in active play for more energetic ones. I also make it a point to send regular updates, photos, and notes to owners so they feel reassured and connected while they’re away. In my own home, I designate safe areas for rest, play, and meals, and I make sure fresh water is always available. In a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely everything from where the pet sleeps to how they like their walks so the pet’s routine is not disrupted. My goal is for every pet to feel secure, cared for, and happy, no matter the environment.

“Sharon was wonderful! She was flexible and was able to meet all of my dogs needs while at daycare . She went above and beyond to make sure he was not only comfortable, but happy. She sent numerous pictures throughout the day highlighting my dog lounging and going for walks throughout the neighborhood. He also received his mid day medication without hesitation. I am truly appreciative of the time and care provided by Sharon. I would strongly recommend her services to anyone in the wake forest area.”

I am the right home away from home for your pup if he/she loves being around attentive, nurturing family with children. I am a homeschool mom of three children, aged 6, 9, and 11. As a homeschool mom, I am home a large majority of the time. I am available and present weekdays and weekends to care for and spend quality time with your pup! Any pup in our home will be well-loved, played with, cuddled, and attended to in a kind, gentle way! While I am home, your pup will be able to freely wander our downstairs area and screened in porch. At bedtime and when I have to leave the house, I will crate your pup. I have a large yard and a great neighborhood to walk your dog frequently. I have a screened in porch for your pup to lounge in on beautiful days and a large downstairs area to ensure your dog has a comfortable place to stay and an indoor place to play ball and snuggle. I can accommodate small and medium dogs who are crate-trained. For fully-potty trained dogs, I have a downstairs area that I can safely accommodate smaller pups who are not crate-trained.

We work from home and we are able to care for your pups all day! We do let animals on the couch and the bed, but will crate if that’s what you prefer.
About: As avid dog lovers and rescue advocates, my wife and I have a great deal of experience with all kinds of dogs - from puppies to seniors - low to high energy - we have dealt with all kinds More importantly, we understand that they're not just dogs, they're family. They’ll feel right at home with us. We have a LARGE fenced in yard where they’ll be able to run around - or we can take them on a nice run/walk - or they can just lounge and be lazy around the house.

“Rebecca was great with Penelope! She was always on time and super responsive and always sent pics during her visit. I will definitely be using her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a walker :)”
About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

About: I genuinely love all dogs, and pugs hold a special place in my heart! I own two! Their unique personalities and affectionate nature make them such a joy to care for. That said, I enjoy spending time with dogs of every breed, age, and size from playful puppies to wise senior dogs.

I work from home and have a very flexible schedule so I can be available anytime, just need a few days notice. I am only available for walks and drop in’s as I have two dogs of my own and one is not very friendly. Prefer not to care for dogs in my own home due to having an anxious husky in my house but am more than willing to come to your place for visits!

I have worked with diabetic dogs, puppies, seniors, cats/kittens, special needs and aggressive breeds. I am highly trained and have a great relationship with animals. I have had pets in my care for over 10 years. I have a very outgoing personality so I get along extremely well with animals. I am very reliable, honest and punctual. Your pets and home are in the best possible care with me. I currently work from home, therefore I am able to give my animals and other animals the high amount of attention they need. Sticking to a routine comes naturally as I am extremely flexible in my stay at home job. I love making time for the fur babies. I make sure food, water, toys, attention and exercise are priorities. It is important to ensure a proper routine is followed. I love giving animals my love and attention as they are just like people. My guaranteed promise to my clients is that your pets will be well taken care of.
About: I’ve been passionate about caring for animals my entire life and have owned dogs for as long as I can remember. Professionally, I have nearly 9 years of experience in the pet care industry, including working at a veterinary hospital and currently serving as the General Manager and Co-owner of a dog daycare, boarding, grooming, and training facility. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’m experienced in administering medications, including insulin injections, oral medications, IV fluids, topical treatments, and more. Whether your pup needs extra medical attention, a structured routine, or simply lots of love and companionship, I’m happy to provide the care that’s best for them. Every pet is unique, and I believe in treating each one like they’re part of my own family. From long walks and playtime to belly rubs, booty scratches, and plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and loved. My goal is to follow your routine and preferences so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away! I currently work full time managing/co-owning a dog kennel, but I work early mornings until about 1pm and create my own work schedule so can be flexible! I love every dog that I meet and care for like they are my own fur babies. My dogs personally are spoiled brats and I feel like that is the only right way to dog mom haha!
About: I've had and cared for animals my entire life, mostly dogs as well as cats. From Shih tzus to Great Danes, puppies/kittens to senior pets- I'm comfortable with breeds of all shapes, sizes, and all life stages. Pets are family, and as a mother of 2 (humans :)) also, I understand the importance of being responsible for others' well-being. I would love to be there for your fur babies! Currently I'm working from home part time with a flexible schedule. I can be available during the day as well as evenings and weekends, depending on the day/week. Unfortunately I'm not able to offer overnight stays at this time. I am happy to walk/let out, play, feed, pet, and just show some love to your beloved pet(s). As someone who has dealt with sick pets, I'm comfortable administering medications, including ones that might require injections.
About: Being an only child I've always had a dog for a companion since I was young. I've had a Husky, German shepherd, and more recently a Labrador and currently a golden retriever puppy. My home never feels complete without a fur baby. Now that I have been fully remote i find myself with too much free time on my hands and Riley is dying to have a play mate. I am fully remote with access to a walking trail and dog park. We hit the trail every 4 hours for potty breaks and some fetch. I live in a quiet apartment so noises are not a problem. I do not sit more than one pet (aside from my dog). I like to keep a keen eye on the mischief.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs of all kinds and ages. Senior and puppy/kitten pet care are part of my experience. From long walks, to fun games, to specialty foods and injury recovery, I’ve seen and done it all. Your pets will be well loved and cared for by me. Currently, I have a wide open schedule as I prepare for my next job in the next few months. I can do multiple walks a day or stay overnight with pets. I can offer caring for your pets in your own home and will utilize your resources appropriately and safely. My own home, if truly needed, is in a lovely neighborhood for nice walks, with a fenced in backyard. Currently, there are no other pets in the house.

“I have to admit, I had never used rover it was last minute. My usual boarders we're full, but i came across Valerie and her profile made me take that chance. Im so glad i did she was amazing! She sent pics everyday, she made my trip more relaxed and i was at ease. I will use her services again my dogs loved her.”
“Absolutely amazing! Our new dog is very anxious, large, and full of puppy energy but Melissa and her husband handled her wonderfully. She kept in constant contact with pictures and updates showing that our Indie girl was having a blast!”
“Jeremy and his family are so great with our Roxie girl! They take such good care of her, communicate well with us, and feel like an extension of Roxie’s family. We can’t wait for them to watch her again soon!”
“Carol and her family were very welcoming of Remy and they took him in right at the last minute as another dog sitter did not work out due to other dogs being a little aggressive. Carol and her family took a risk having a new dog that has not been introduced to their dog and I am so grateful of that. When I came back to pick up Remy they had nothing but compliments of how well behaved my dog was as I knew my dog is very well behaved and gets along with everybody. I highly recommend Carol and her family for anybody looking for a dog sitter.”
“Scott and Heather took great care of our boys, Elvis and Emmitt. We knew they were going to be in good hands after meeting them. We received so many great pictures during their stay and it was obvious our boys were loving all of the attention from their family. We were very pleased with the care they received and look forward to booking with them in the future.”
“Amanda was great with communication & very flexible when I had something last minute come up- she was able to keep our pups for an extra night on short notice. Our dogs came back very happy & tired!”
“My pup had a wonderful stay with Alcino and Diana! He was loved, cared for, and treated like family. I received daily pictures with captions explaining what my pup was up to and the sitter was very responsive during my pup’s boarding. Would 100% book again. Thank you for taking such good care of Tucker!!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of George due to last minute wedding out of state! Received so many picture updates which were welcomed since he usually is by my side 24/7.”
“Sonia and Jeff are phenomenal! We have used them exclusively for nearly two years now for our beagle/hound mix, Rosie. Rosie has a lot of apprehension when going places like the vet or grooming appointments, but literally cannot wait to get out of the car when we get to Sonia and Jeff’s and is so excited to see Jeff! We always get updates about her stay and can tell that she’s really cared for. She comes home happy and tired!”
“Second time our puppy stayed with Bryan and she had a blast from what we could tell! Bryan gave us updates and sent lots of photos. We will stay with Bryan again in the future!”
“Andrew was the best and Took care of my husky, and provided pictures and was very patient and also provided tons of exercise for my dog. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a dog sitter or boarder in the future.”

“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!”
“Hilary & Lucas were absolutely wonderful! Cherry had a great time with them and came home happy and well cared for. They were kind, attentive, and kept us updated throughout the stay. We truly appreciate their excellent care and would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you!”
“This was our first time using Miriam to board our fur baby Pepper for the weekend. We were a little nervous since we had a regular sitter for years until we moved a couple months ago. She helped us have peace of mind by showing us where our dog would be staying as well as asking us questions that would help her to care for Pepper. Miriam was very transparent and also introduced us to her doggie 🐶. Everything went smoothly and she kept us updated throughout the weekend. We were also pleasantly surprised that our dog was not as nervous as we thought she would be and was able to adapt quickly. Definitely recommend Miriam and will be using her services again.”
“We were very pleased w the entire experience. We, with our two dogs, met Evan in advance to make sure everyone was comfortable and at that point I knew we were in good hands. Our babies had so much fun running around on a farm Happily recommend Evan.”
“I cannot recommend Ashley and her girls highly enough- best dog sitters ever!! Arriving for drop off we were greeted with a custom welcome sign which was the sweetest thing ever. They took the such good care of our noodle we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home with us! Ashley and her girls made sure he felt right at home and I have no doubt he was sooo loved on. . They made sure he got ample play time and walks. They provided us with regular updates and photos. It was such a relief to know our pup was with a family that loved and cared for him like Ashley and her girls do! He will definitely be back!!”
