I loved the stay with Yueqian. She sent me plenty of cute daily pictures, which helped a lot with my anxiety since this was my first stay for my dog. Kitty was healthy and happy when returned home. I cannot wait to continue booking with Yueqian.

Lara did a outstanding job with our little dog Izzy. She kept us informed on how Izzy was doing with photos, videos, and text messages since we were gone for two weeks to visit our family in Anchorage. We will definitely use her again. I was afraid that our Izzy wasn't going to want to come back home. I highly recommend that you give her a try. Very reasonable compared to other sitters.

If I could leave more stars I would, I can not recommend Kyle enough! Our pups stayed for a week and had a blast. Kyle kept in contact with updates, brought them to see us (we were local to a fun spot for them to try the beach out), and he took wonderful care of our puppies. If you need a sitter in the area, I would definitely recommend going with Kyle!

I left my Mini Aussie Doodle with Robert for a 4 day trip out of town. He was very nice and paid special attention to not let Lynus eat the other dogs food. I was nervous about him coming home with diarrhea like the last time I left him with someone, but Robert was really great. I will use him again if needed and I believe Lynus had a great time! He sent pictures everyday and I really appreciated that. Thank you Robert!

This was our first experience with boarding ever. We were nervous but wanted to find someone we could use for consistency. This was the best experience we could have asked for. I have no doubt Yadi was well taken care of an ms the feedback provided my Kaylah was great. We have already talked to her about using her more in the future! So glad we decided to use Rover and happy we found Kaylah.

About: Hi! I’m Danielle, a stay-at-home mom to our beautiful baby girl. Before parenthood, I worked at a veterinary clinic specializing in fear-free handling, surgeries, emergencies, grooming, and advanced medicine. This gave me extensive hands-on experience with cats of all ages, personalities, and needs—from playful kittens to senior cats requiring medication, post-surgery care, or special diets. We recently said goodbye to our beloved dog after a battle with cancer, and the quiet house has us excited to welcome feline friends for in-home boarding or cat sitting. With my vet background and a deep passion for compassionate, low-stress care, I create a safe, enriching environment tailored to each cat’s unique preferences. As a full-time mom, I’m home during the day to provide plenty of attention, interactive play, scratching posts, climbing opportunities, and quiet hiding spots. I handle litter box maintenance diligently, administer medications if needed, and monitor health closely—just like in the clinic. I always prioritize free meet-and-greets to ensure we’re a great match for you and your cat before booking. Whether your kitty is shy, adventurous, needs senior support, or just wants lap time and laser pointer fun, I’d love to care for them like part of our family. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your feline companion! 🐱

About: Years of firsthand experience have equipped me with an innate understanding of dogs' needs, behaviors, and preferences, enabling me to create a nurturing and engaging environment for my furry visitors. Working from home allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine, ensuring that my furry companions receive ample attention and care throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I can prioritize regular walks, play sessions, and feeding times to meet their needs. Whether it's taking short breaks for cuddle sessions or incorporating outdoor activities into my lunch break, your pup will never be far from my side. What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my extensive experience coupled with the ideal setup of a fenced-in backyard and my loyal canine companion. My backyard serves as a safe and stimulating space where dogs can play, exercise, and socialize under my watchful eye, enhancing their overall well-being and enjoyment during their stay. Having a furry companion of my own adds an extra layer of comfort and familiarity for visiting dogs, fostering a sense of camaraderie and companionship that sets my dog-sitting service apart from the rest.

About: I’m available most days to play and care for your animals. I’d love to take them running, playing, and of course to snuggle them! You can expect that I will love your pets as if they are my own. I haven’t had a pet in about three years (my doggie of seven years unfortunately got sick and passed) so I’m looking to ease back into having a pet by doggie-sitting a bit before I commit to a full time furfriend. I’m very entergetic so I have no problem taking on your active pets but I also like quiet time and movies for your more laid back animals. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have! I’m currently working part time and travel on weekends so I have a pretty flexible schedule to play with your pup! If I’m traveling in gone most weekends, and if I’m working it mostly afternoons. At this time I am not doing boarding but I like to ensure that your pet feels safe with me in your home while house sitting by doing a visit prior to the booked stay.

And when she found out it was his birthday, she made him a beautiful, yummy birthday "cake" which I'm sure made him love her all the more. Will rebook on our next trip here! Thank you, Yueqian!

About: I understand how nerve wracking it can be to have someone new care for your baby! I’ve been caring for pups for roughly 10 years. I’m typically the go-to sitter for my friends but and family. I treat your pup as my own. I ensure they stick to their normal routine and get plenty of exercise and love so they’re comfortable! I work remote and have my own friendly golden I take on my walks throughout the day, so I am flexible with my schedule. Week days and weekends work for me. I have my own pup, so your pup will have company and I will treat yours as my own! I am happy to crate if needed or follow any extra safety protocols you need. I am confident in administering medicine your pup needs as well. I will send daily updates and photos to ease your mind! Pups are welcome on furniture (with your permission) so they can feel cozy and at home.

Bud looked like he had an absolute blast with Jerry and Bud got taken on so many new adventures which he looked like he absolutely loved. Jerry was even able to pick up Bud for me which saved me so much time that morning and gave him a bath for me before I went to go pick up Bud later that day! Jerry is literally so amazing and I will definitely book with him again in the future!

I’ve just moved here and being brand new to this part of the country, I am so relieved that I was able to find Kevin for my dog Walker. He keeps me informed with every walk, great photos & 100% Dependable and a Super Nice Guy!!

About: Hi! I’m Kayla! Highly rated pet sitter, Vet Tech, Zoology Graduate & Owner of Furever Together Pet Care 🐾 Thanks for stopping by! I’m proud to be one of the top-rated sitters in the region with over 100 five-star reviews on Rover. Quality, communication, and pet safety are always at the center of what I do. I’m a veterinary assistant with 3 years of veterinary experience, and the owner of Furever Together Pet Care, my licensed and insured professional pet care business serving Brunswick & New Hanover Counties. I’m proud to be one of the top-rated sitters in the region with 98+ five-star reviews on Rover. Quality, communication, and pet safety are always at the center of what I do. I graduated with a degree in Zoology and have worked hands-on with a wide range of animals, including exotics, at both the Greensboro Science Center and the NC Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh. This background helps me confidently care for pets with unique needs, medical considerations, or specific routines. While I am readily available, in cases where I am not, I also have two amazing assistants, both trained veterinary assistants based in Wilmington and Leland, who help cover sittings when I’m booked or when scheduling gets busy. No matter who visits your pets, you’ll always have someone experienced, dependable, and animal-obsessed taking care of them. While my primary focus here is everyday pet sitting and drop-ins, I also offer wedding-day pet care through my business (happy to share more if you ever need it!). When I’m not caring for pets, you’ll find me at the beach with my dog, volunteering at a cat sanctuary (The Ruffian Foundation!), or curled up with a good book. Animals are truly the center of my world, and I’m grateful to have built a life and career surrounded by them. I’d love to meet your pets and care for them like my own! 💛🐶🐱 While I am readily available, in cases where I am not, I also have two amazing assistants, both trained veterinary assistants based in Wilmington and Leland, who help cover sittings when I’m booked or when scheduling gets busy. No matter who visits your pets, you’ll always have someone experienced, dependable, and animal-obsessed taking care of them. Flexibility of time windows (morning, mid-day, evening and night) are important for scheduling with other clients and driving times. Exceptions to this are medication administration that must be done at certain times. Your pets will receive detailed care with me! Your animals will receive food, water, any special medications/treatment, love and attention, walks, and playtime! I can accommodate any special needs you have. I have the ability to safely secure your animals in your home and secure your house as well.

About: Hi! I’m Danielle, a stay-at-home mom to our beautiful baby girl. Before parenthood, I worked at a veterinary clinic specializing in fear-free handling, surgeries, emergencies, grooming, and advanced medicine—giving me hands-on experience with all kinds of animals, from dogs and cats to reptiles, small mammals, birds, and aquatics. We recently said goodbye to our beloved dog after a battle with cancer, and the quiet house has me excited to open my schedule for caregiving. With my vet background and a passion for compassionate care, I provide a loving, low-stress experience tailored to each pet’s needs. As a full-time mom, I’m home during the day to offer plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and enrichment. I prioritize meet-and-greets (completely free!) to ensure we’re a great match for you and your pet before any booking. Whether your dog needs medication support, post-surgery monitoring, or just lots of cuddles and fun, I’d love to care for them like family. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I work from home, therefore I am free 24-7 to help take care of your animals and help meet your needs while they are in my care. As of now- we only own cats. We recently lost our dog to cancer. I believe animals thrive best in a structured environment. We keep a consistent schedule for our pets, feeding, play time and whatnot. I do ask that your pet is friendly with children.

About: I’m available most days to play and care for your animals. I’d love to take them running, playing, and of course to snuggle them! You can expect that I will love your pets as if they are my own. I haven’t had a pet in about three years (my doggie of seven years unfortunately got sick and passed) so I’m looking to ease back into having a pet by doggie-sitting a bit before I commit to a full time furfriend. I’m very entergetic so I have no problem taking on your active pets but I also like quiet time and movies for your more laid back animals. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have! I’m currently working part time and travel on weekends so I have a pretty flexible schedule to play with your pup! If I’m traveling in gone most weekends, and if I’m working it mostly afternoons. At this time I am not doing boarding but I like to ensure that your pet feels safe with me in your home while house sitting by doing a visit prior to the booked stay.

I would love to give your pet the opportunity to have nice walks around your neighborhood, with a dog lover who will give them the attention that they deserve! I will give them the personal touch that makes a long lasting dog walker. If you are having trouble with loose leash walking, I can do some simple exercises to better your dogs quality of life. I hope to work with you in the future, as I would love to meet and work with all the dogs I can! I spend a lot of my days with my service dog in training and learning new languages! I have recently moved to the area and found that this would be a great way to spend my time doing what I love. For dog walking, I’m very observant and will always keep your dogs safety in mind. You dog having fun while ensuring they get the exercise they need is my main goal. Since I’m also a beginner dog trainer, I will offer simple services to help the walks go much smoother. I may ask for your pups regular treats, to ensure they don’t get a stomach ache from new foods they aren’t used to. I will always have you and your dogs best interest in mind.

About: I may not have years of professional pet sitting/dog walking experience, but I do know what it means to love and care for a dog every single day. I have my own two pups who I walk and play with several times a week, and I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and happy. I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine care to every animal I meet. I’m a homeschooled student, about to graduate, so I have a very flexible schedule and can be available most days from 7 AM to 7 PM. This allows me plenty of time to give your pets the attention, walks, and love they need throughout the day. When I visit your pet for walks or potty breaks, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, dependable, and always pay attention to their needs, whether that’s extra playtime, fresh water, or just a little love and company. You can trust me to treat your pup like my own.

I loved the stay with Yueqian. She sent me plenty of cute daily pictures, which helped a lot with my anxiety since this was my first stay for my dog. Kitty was healthy and happy when returned home. I cannot wait to continue booking with Yueqian.

If I could leave more stars I would, I can not recommend Kyle enough! Our pups stayed for a week and had a blast. Kyle kept in contact with updates, brought them to see us (we were local to a fun spot for them to try the beach out), and he took wonderful care of our puppies. If you need a sitter in the area, I would definitely recommend going with Kyle!

Stephanie is an absolute delight, compassionate, and well qualified. Our labradoodle is overly anxious and he was completely comfortable in her home. We often received texts and pictures to assure us that Cooper was content. We will definitely use Stephanie for future boardings.

I left my Mini Aussie Doodle with Robert for a 4 day trip out of town. He was very nice and paid special attention to not let Lynus eat the other dogs food. I was nervous about him coming home with diarrhea like the last time I left him with someone, but Robert was really great. I will use him again if needed and I believe Lynus had a great time! He sent pictures everyday and I really appreciated that. Thank you Robert!

This was our first experience with boarding ever. We were nervous but wanted to find someone we could use for consistency. This was the best experience we could have asked for. I have no doubt Yadi was well taken care of an ms the feedback provided my Kaylah was great. We have already talked to her about using her more in the future! So glad we decided to use Rover and happy we found Kaylah.
