“I am so happy that I found Baylee on Rover! I knew that Baylee was going to be the perfect cat sitting match from the moment I met her during our initial meet and greet. She took great care of my cat for seven days with twice daily visits. She was extremely reliable by showing up at the same time each day and very communicative by providing detailed notes after each visit, along with several photos. She took the time to get to know my cat and I felt good knowing that my cat was in such great, loving hands while I was out of town. Baylee is such an amazing person and she has such great love for cats. Being new to town, I am so fortunate that I found an incredible cat sitter that I can trust for my future cat sitting needs. I would recommend Baylee 1000% to care for your furry felines. She is caring, very responsive, extremely reliable and such a fantastic person overall!”

“Julia took great care of our two cats. They are very timid rescues, but they were very comfortable around Julia right from the start. They are also older adult cats with a host of issues and Julia handled each situation very well. She communicated with us daily and very much eased our concerns about traveling a great distance for an extended period of time.”
“Alyeska was a natural with our two boys. They are normally mad when we come back from a trip but they barely registered our return this time. It was clear their physical and emotional needs had been well taken care of. She also send us videos each day at our request, which not all sitters will do, my husband really misses the cats when we are away and these videos get him through. Also she took in packages for us we had forgotten were coming. Excellent communicator and we appreciated how consistent her timing was each day.”

Ability to take pets to mill bridge park or horseshoe reserve. I'm fit and ready for an hour or longer walks.
“Gretchen was absolutely amazing with our dog, Molly. This was our first time using Rover, and naturally we were a little nervous leaving her with someone new, especially because Molly can be anxious and has a few special considerations. Gretchen immediately put us at ease. She was kind, attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about making Molly feel safe and comfortable in her home. We received updates and could tell Molly was being genuinely cared for, not just watched. Gretchen was also very patient with Molly’s quirks and made the entire experience stress-free for us. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and attentive.”
“Traveling out of state. Needed someone to watch my puppy. First time using Rover.com. I was very impressed how quickly Kourtney responded to my request for same day care. Great communication and very friendly. I felt good about leaving my puppy with her. My puppy had a great time. After picking her up and back to the hotel she went straight to sleep. Thank you Kourtney for taking good care of my baby.”
“Brandi and John were exceedingly accommodating and helpful! I needed last-minute daycare and I am so grateful. My dog was happy when I picked him up and they sent me pictures throughout the day. I highly recommend them!”
About: Caring for dogs isn’t just what I do- it’s who I am. As a proud parent of three wonderful pups, I know every tail wag and each happy bark means the world. I’ll treat your dog just like my own - with plenty of playtime, safe walks, and fun photo updates so you’re always in the loop!! My husband and I both work from home and the pups are very seldom left alone. If you want your pup crated we will follow your instructions. We may run to the store for a few, but we don’t even like to leave our pets alone :) I have an extremely large fenced in back yard for the pups to run and play!! 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: Whether you're heading out for a weekend or a longer trip, your dog will be in safe, loving hands. I offer personalized dog sitting and comfortable home-based boarding where your pup will enjoy plenty of attention, daily walks, playtime, and a calm environment. With a genuine love for animals and experience caring for dogs, I treat every fur guest my own —because your fur baby deserves nothing less. Care for my fur guest fits seamlessly into my routine because I work from home. This allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day, whether it's for feeding, potty breaks, walks, or just some comforting company. I’m able to maintain a calm and consistent environment where pets feel safe and cared for. Being home full-time means my fur guest will never be left alone for long, and I can easily adapt to their individual needs and routines. I maintain their regular routines as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, or special care instructions. My fur guest have access to cozy resting areas, safe indoor and outdoor spaces, and plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I also provide regular updates with photos or messages, so you always know how they are doing. My goal is to create a stress-free, happy stay that gives you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi I am Suzanne! I have cared for many dogs throughout the years of both friends and family members who are traveling out of town. I have a genuine love for dogs and will do everything within my power to foster a warm, inviting home away from home for your dog. I have experience walking, feeding, crating, and playing with dogs of many different breeds. 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 have finally found a dog sitter that truly cares about dogs! For the first time ever our 3-year old Siberian Husky, who is very attached to us and who tied several dog sitters, finally enjoys her daycare. I know that my dog is well taken care of, has access to the backyard, has plenty of attention, love, and also some playtime with Shiloh. Highly recommend Angelique!”
“Vanessa was amazing with my puppy! It's our first time leaving him since we got him and I was nervous but Vanessa sent updates throughout the day and let us know he was doing great! We have a border collie so know that he has a lot of energy and requires a of exercise and we can tell he had a lot of fun running around her yard because he slept the whole ride back home! Would definitely recommend Vanessa and already rebooked another session!”

I will make your dog feel cared for while giving them the highest standard of care and attention. I work from home mostly and have the flexibility to spend time with dogs. Just like your pup, It's good for me to take breaks and get outside too. We will have a fence in the next few months and will have a beautiful backyard for dogs to run. We have a large home with lots of windows and light and would love to host other furry guests.

“Miriam was wonderful from the start. She communicated so well, conforming details and answering questions promptly. She was professional, kind and helpful. Plus, our little Daisy loved her! We will definitely book pup sitting with Miriam again!”
“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 a first time animal owner, and Keith has been a tremendous help with caring and sharing great moments with my precious Indya. She loves her weekly daycare time with him and I would highly recommend his services. Keith is the greatest and the previous reviews are spot on. Thank you Keith for all that you do😍”
About: Hi! I'm Katie. I have a sweet dog who is about 60 lbs and LOVES making new dog friends. :) We have a 5 year old, 8 year old, and a 13 year old who all love, love, love dogs. I've been around dogs my entire life - both big and small, and many types of breeds including labs, Pomeranians, German shepherds, Rottweilers, and super mutts! Before my mom passed away, she was a pet sitter and I was always so jealous that she got to meet so many friendly dogs. I'm happy to offer dog sitting and walking now to keep her memory alive. It was her favorite job she ever had - because it wasn't really a job! I can't wait to love on your sweet dogs like they are my own. :) I will also gladly welcome the extra exercise walking your sweet pup! If you're interested in having your sweet dog stay with us - I work from home so I am always here! My kids will LOVE giving your pets the attention they deserve while you are away! Crate-trained is preferred. I work full time from home and my schedule is very flexible for breaks! My husband is home a lot as well as his shifts are 24 hours so he can fill in as needed. I have a fenced in yard (six foot) and a great block to walk around for walks. For feedings, we separate the dogs so there is no chance for food aggression.
“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.”
About: I've been fostering cats and dogs since I was 10 as just a person hobby. I then realized I had a passion for working with and taking care of animals. I am currently attending school to obtain my animal science degree. i am also a professional animal groomer and am currently am at home full time but have previously worked at an animal hospital as an Animal Care Technician. I was responsible for feeding and medicating cats and dogs, taking them out for their daily walks, playing with them, preparing their food for the morning and night as we do boarding, giving them baths if need be, and cleaning up after any messes they may make. im currently at home full time so my pet care starts at 7am when I wake up to feed my cats and then depending what I have planned for the day it’s usually no trouble to fit additional pet care into my routine. i currently live in 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house with no HOA. I do have two cats however they have their own room and can be put away if I’m caring for another animal in my home. When I’m caring for a pet in my home I try to implement the same structure and rules the owner has so they don’t steer off from what they learned but also do the animal can feel at home. This also goes for any care done in the clients home, I implement more than ever the same rules the owner has so they can feel as relaxed and comfortable as possible
“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.”

About: Hi! My name is Carine, and I'm an NCSU alumna with over 9 years of professional experience working with dogs. I spent 2 years as a kennel technician before becoming a veterinary technician, a role I've held for the past 7 years. I've also volunteered with the SPCA of Wake County and have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. In addition to my veterinary experience, I've been privately pet sitting for the past 5–6 years and have built lasting relationships with many repeat clients. I've cared for dogs, cats, and other pets with a wide range of temperaments, routines, and medical needs, and I understand how important it is to provide dependable, compassionate care while owners are away. I love spending time with dogs and have plenty of energy for long walks, playtime, and enrichment activities. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and pets with special medical needs. I can also administer medications, including oral, otic (ear), ophthalmic (eye), and injectable medications. Through my work as a veterinary technician, I have experience caring for diabetic pets, post-surgical patients, senior pets, and animals that are fearful, anxious, or require extra patience and gentle handling. As a current veterinary technician, your pet's health, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether your pet needs an adventure-filled walk, extra patience and care, or someone experienced with medical needs, I'll treat them like one of my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work full time so I can visit before work, during lunch and after. The days are variable based on my schedule but my days off are more flexible time wise I do drop in visits, they last anywhere from 30-90 minutes depending on what’s needed. Cats will get their litter box checked every visit. I make sure all pets have clean water provided at all times. I check for any messes, vomiting or diarrhea and will communicate thoroughly with pet parents as needed.

About: 11+ years in the veterinary field. Can administer any medications as needed. Have some familiarity boarding pets with severe separation anxiety and comfortable with senior animals! I work very part-time, mostly from home and am home most days full time. My son is in preschool part of the day and I do drop him off between 8:30-9:45a and pick him up between 12:40-1:30p. My husband, our 3 year old son, and myself live in a large condo with plenty of unused extra space. We have a small, unfenced yard and live in a neighborhood with tons of sidewalks and walking trails. We are a very active family and have 1 dog, a medium sized semi-active (and lazy) female Boston Terrier, Macie, who is 9 years old. She is friendly when meeting new dogs and typically keeps to herself after introduction but may play with a younger, rambunctious dog if she’s in the mood.
About: Hi! My name is Wednesday, and my pronouns are they/them. I've been using Rover since 2022 and have had dozens of wonderful clients! I've recently moved from Chapel Hill and am looking for new clients in the area. I have experience with many types of dogs, from newborn to senior or nervous to energetic. I've been fostering puppies since the age of 13, including a litter of 5 at two months and a litter of 8 newborn puppies in 2020 and 2021 respectively. I love dogs! My family has owned a total of 6 throughout my lifetime and I now have my own named October. She is a calm, well-trained dog who is very low maintenance and friendly! She typically does not come along with me on my jobs. I am dedicated to creating a safe and loving environment for your pets, along with clear communication and a trusting relationship with clients. Thank you for your consideration! I work part-time remotely and attend online school, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I always make sure before booking a client that I have enough time to dedicate to their pets so that they are properly taken care of! Communication is key! Before booking pet care, I do my best to get to know your dog, including their routine, temperament, and any other little quirks! We will discuss this information either through Rover, a phone call, and/or a Meet and Greet. My hope is that through these conversations you feel at ease leaving your pet in my care! My top priority is making sure your pet is comfortable, safe, and taken care of.
About: I have taken care of dogs really ever since I could remember/was able to. I have always grown up with at least three dogs in the house, ranging from very high energy, dogs, to very low energy dogs, also puppy and senior dog. I also have experience with more aggressive side dogs, like leash pulling, food aggressive, etc. I’ve seen it all! Shy dogs, scared dogs, crazy dogs, you name it! Nonetheless, absolutely love all the little fur-babies I meet I recently just moved to this area from Virginia. While things settle in place for me and my boyfriend, I am able to do pet care full-time. Hoping to use this opportunity to get to know the area more! In a client’s home, pets can become more territorial sometimes. So with that being known, I always enter a client’s home slowly, respectfully, but also sternly, making sure those boundaries are being set. And obviously also always having fun😊 in my home I will make sure your pet is comfortable, seen and cared for, and most importantly happy! Obviously indifferent environments, pets can be a little scared so in my home, we will take things slow and go on their time so they can get acclimated correctly.
About: Hello, I’m Rebekah, My love for taking care of animals began when I got my first dog, Faith. There had always been a family pet or two in my life that I looked after from time to time, whether it be our dogs, cats, or horses, but suddenly I had been given my own small puppy that I had the sole responsibility of caring for. I loved getting to spend time bonding with her through play, cuddles, and training-her favorite trick being high five. I knew right away that I had a passion for animals, and that’s what led me here, to Rover. I want to help make owning a pet while having a busy lifestyle a reality for you and your four legged family member(s). I am a very understanding and empathetic petsitter, so whether your animal is energetic or more laidback, I know exactly how to make sure they feel loved and cared for. I am also an avid fan of nature so if your pup likes long walks, I am the gal for you. I currently have two adorable kitties that I got after my sweet Faith passed away, so if you have any feline family members that need care, I would be able to make sure their litter box is clean, their food bowl full and their curiosity sated with lots of play time. I am looking forward to working with you and meeting your sweet pet(s)! I like to adapt to your pet’s schedule to keep their routine so let’s chat and figure out the optimal time(s) for you and your pet! I care for pets in their own home. I learn their routine from you during our meet and greet so that a sense of normalcy remains for them while you are away.
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.
“Rachel has been absolutely amazing! She has the best spirit and is so gentle and loving with my pup Maverick. She’s given me a peace of mind knowing that I can depend on her to walk him while I’m working. I highly recommend Rachel’s services!!”
“Mary is absolutely amazing. She took care of both our dogs for an entire week while we were out of town. She was always punctual and always stayed the entire 30 minutes. She provided us with details of the visit everytime and always sent us pictures”
About: I’m the kind of person who treats every pet like they’re literally my own child! I have two cats at home that I absolutely pamper, so I totally get that your pets are family. For the last five years, I’ve been caring for cats and dogs of all ages. I also volunteered at a shelter last summer. I’m big on actual playtime—whether that’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or finally winning over a shy cat with a feather wand. I’m also totally comfortable with the important stuff, like feeding schedules and giving meds. Whether your fur-baby is a high-energy kitten or a sweet senior dog, I’ll give them all the love and attention they need while you’re away! My schedule is super open right now, so I’m honestly available whenever you need me! Since my routine is so flexible, I can hang out with your fur-babies pretty much any time during the week or on weekends. Whether you need a midday check-in or a weekend playdate, I’m totally free to jump in and give them all the love they deserve! I’m totally happy to follow whatever routine your pets love best in the comfort of their own home! Whether it’s feeding, going for long walks in the neighborhood, playing in the yard, or keeping up with their meds, I’ve got it covered. I want you to feel 100% safe and relaxed knowing I’m there to care for your fur-babies exactly how you like.
About: I am an avid animal lover who has always owned multiple dogs and cats, and absolutely love getting to meet new animals and learn their personalities and have fun! I’m very active and love to play, dog walking is great because then I get my exercise while taking your pet for a stroll and getting their energy out ;) Staying at your house to keep your pets comfortable and calm is a smart idea, and I always enjoy time spent with a pet who has all their creature comforts nearby. I work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule - taking care of your pets is easy to manage, whether it’s short notice or dropping in! I like to take care of any pet in the same way they receive care at home. Keeping them comfortable with comfort toys, treats, walks, and lots of love.

“Our goldendoodle stayed with Vanessa and her family for the second time last week and he had a great time! Vanessa sent several photos and updates every day and we could tell Luca felt right at home with plenty of attention and exercise. He loves to be outside so the huge back yard was perfect for fetching balls and playing with other dogs. We will definitely have Luca stay with Vanessa again when we’re out of town.”

“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!!”
