Personalized care for your dog or cat - Selma
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Selma
“Took a last minute booking after our scheduled boarder decided that our dog was too much. Our dog had no issues with her at all. She saved us from being in a bad position and handled our dog who doesn't like being without us without issue for five days.”
“Hannah and Patrick are truly amazing. Our girl is in love with them and their beautiful dog, Bailey. She had the best time. Hannah sent pictures throughout the stay which relieved some of the stress I had leaving my sweet girl. We will for sure use them again. Highly recommended!”
“Very awesome! Blue is on a raw diet and she was willing to accommodate that. She gave me daily updates, which let me know how he was doing! Will definitely be using again!”
“Pam and her husband were so wonderful with my older beagle, Hank! I could tell from all of my updates and pictures that he was truly on vacation at their house. They were so professional and kind! So appreciative that they took him in and treated them as good as their own ♥️ Will absolutely be reaching out when needing to go out of town again!! The BEST.”
“Elaine and her family were wonderful. They treated my dogs like their own. Elaine handled my rambunctious 1 year old dog, Annika like a professional dog trainer and Goose, my 4 year old, enjoyed home school with her daughters. Petunia, Elaine's family dog is very sweet and gets along very well with other dogs. I will definitely look to Elaine in the future for any pet boarding needs.”
“So happy to have found Leonardo & Oriana! They took such good care of my boy. They kept me updated and were very attentive and responsive. Will only book with them as much as I can! Highly recommend!”
“Mitzi and her family took great care of our boy, Chase, over Thanksgiving. She sent pictures regularly and kept us well updated throughout his entire stay. From the beginning, she made us feel at ease. She and her family gave him the same love and care as if he were a part of their family. I look forward to having her care for Chase again.”
“So glad we found Chantel! She kept Buster for 8 days, he first time away from us since we got him at 6 mos. old. Chantel kept us informed the whole time with texts and photos, showing us how he was doing. I think he really enjoyed his time there, and hopefully next time we need to go away, she will be available. I highly recommend!”
“Laura was great with Beau and I believe Beau had a great time with Laura and her family including her dog! I would recommend Laura and I will definitely use her again! She was excellent!!”
“Kelly and Jacob were great. They took care of my hyper 3month old Lab puppy for the weekend. My dog seemed to feel safe with them as he was cuddling up with the kids on the couch. Kelly was great about sending pictures of my puppy during his stay and made me not have to worry about if he was okay.”
“Michelle takes great care of my dogs each time they stay with her. She is dependable. She replies to messages quickly and provides updates on my dogs' stay which includes photos. Thank you for always taking such great care of my dogs!!”
“Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.”
“Rory seemed to fit right in with Jamie and her family. Jamie took everything in stride and was very flexible with pick up time since our flight was delayed. It was much easier to enjoy our trip knowing Rory was well taken care of. Will definitely use Jamie again when flying out of RDU since she is right off the highway.”
“Wonderful!! Responds promptly very friendly. Deann took excellent care of our boy could of not ask for a better sitter. She made us feel very comfortable gave updates during our trip. I would recommend her to everyone”
About: I work fully from home, which allows me to offer a highly attentive and flexible level of care throughout the day. Dogs in my care receive consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. I also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and my neighborhood has sidewalks that are ideal for daily walks. I currently have two dogs of my own: Neo, a Lab mix, and Luna, a Golden Retriever. Caring for them daily gives me strong hands-on experience with different temperaments, routines, and energy levels, and I’m very comfortable adjusting care based on each dog’s personality and needs. I also foster dogs, including dogs with medical needs and behavioral challenges. This has given me experience administering medication, managing behaviors, recognizing stress signals, and reinforcing basic training techniques when needed. I am comfortable caring for dogs that require extra patience, structure, or individualized attention. Because I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I treat every dog in my care with the same attention and responsibility I give my own. I intentionally provide quality, attentive care and only take bookings I can fully commit to, so each dog receives the attention they deserve. I work from home full time, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Because I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and as many potty breaks as needed. I can easily incorporate walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication if needed, and rest time into the day while making sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. Safety is very important to me. I have a fully fenced yard with a 6-foot fence, which provides a secure space for dogs to spend time outside safely. Because I work from home full time, dogs in my care receive full attention, close supervision, and are never left alone for long periods. I make sure each dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for while following their routine and any specific instructions provided by their owner.
“So happy Onyx stayed with this lovely family. Marissa was warm and inviting. She shared pictures of Onyx with us while he was there. I have no complaints and will definitely use them again! If they are available. ☺️”
“Carlita was a great sitter for my dog, she provided detailed updates via video and photos while my dog was in her care for 12+ days. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in capable and caring hands. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Joanne was the perfect sitter for our dachshund. She has dachshunds herself and gave lots of energy and attention to our dog every day. She even had time to send us great photos so we never had to worry one minute and could enjoy our vacation.”

“Dante did a wonderful job taking care of our babies last minute for us! He was very flexible as we did not know exactly what our travel plans would look like and was very accommodating which was so helpful for us as we were traveling with two young kids and we did not know how that was going to go. One less stress was our pups being cared for. When we got home our fur babies were relaxed, happy and showed zero signs of any stress. From their happy tails and fun pictures we received during his visit, we can tell they enjoyed Dante coming to check on them while we were away! Thank you so much for your help over the weekend !!”
About: Hello, I’m Jess! I grew up around animals from the time I could walk until now. I’ve had dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, fish and a horse! I’ve always felt so comfortable and at ease around all kinds of animals and have always tried to help every animal I can (even if my parents didn’t appreciate it haha). I currently moved down to North Carolina with my cat and lived with 4 other cats, 4 dogs, and 6 birds before now. I also rescued a 9week old kitten from a dumpster a couple months ago! I’m really excited to have the chance to care for your fur babies while you’re unavailable! I can ensure they will stick to any schedule they may have, have any necessary medications on time, and are happy and safe before I let them have their “me” time! I’m currently working night shifts, part time, so I’m available during the day for our pets and late at night! I typically have 3 days off per week and am able to work around my work schedule to ensure your pets have the best care possible! I like to come in and figure out what I can do to make the fur babies days a little better! Make sure they have food, water, find some treats and toys for them, and have a field day of play! I always triple check that my home and my clients homes are clean and safe when I leave so we don’t risk accidents happening and so everyone can rest easy! My primary concern is always your pets safety and well-being, as well as my own, so you can rest assured your pets will remain in a safe and happy environment while I’m there!
“Rachel was amazing and super helpful and patient as we worked through some tech issues with our automatic feeders and litter robot. She is great and I hope we can continue to book her in the future!”
“Lillie has proven to continue to provide exceptional service. She has been flexible, accommodating, and easy to work with! I feel very comfortable entrusting Lillie with my senior pup (and my home as well).”
“Can't say enough good things about Elissa. You can tell she loves her job and the animals she cares for. I can always relax when I'm away knowing that she's taking great care of my mischievous ones at home.”
“This is my third booking with Kiarra in the past couple of months due to lots of summer travel. She provided daily pictures and updates as usual. During this booking, when she was concerned about the auto-feeders not dispensing food, she let me know and adjusted the camera I use to check in on the kitties at various times to the food bowl so that I would be able to verify Smokey's food was getting dispersed at the correct time. She's been great with my cats and I will continue to use her for future bookings.”
“Francesca has been a huge help for my Mother while she’s in the hospital, taking very good care of her beloved (and shy) kitty! I made the arrangements from out of state, and Francesca has made a difficult time better by making sure we didn’t have to worry about kitty being too lonely. While I haven’t yet met Francesca face to face, a friend has, and confirmed the quality of care. I get pics and vids from every visit so I can assure my Mother that kitty’s needs are met. This is important to my Mother’s wellness, and we are grateful. ?”
“Jessica is so reliable and thoughtful when taking care of our cats and dogs. I appreciate her thorough communication and willingness to make sure our pets are fully taken care of. I always highly recommend her for stress-free, worry-free service for any fur babies.”
“I highly recommend Tiffany. She was wonderful with my cat, Sweetie PIe!! Sweetie PIe is mainly an outdoor cat. She is a bit skittish and distrustful of people she doesn't know so it can be a challenge for a new person to try to take care of her. Tiffany was great. She checked on her regularly and made sure that Sweetie PIe had food and water and kept me well informed on how Sweetie PIe was doing. I enjoyed my trip so much more knowing what good care Sweetie PIe was getting. I will definitely be calling Tiffany again to take care of Sweetie Pie when I go out of town!”
“Kathleen did an incredible job looking after our two cats, Boris and Ivan, while we were away for a long weekend. The cats took to her immediately, and she was communicative and professional through the whole process. She also sent us great pics and videos to keep us updated.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Selma
“Hannah & Patrick were great with our pups. We did a meet & greet the week before so our dogs could meet on a nice walk. They have a nice sized yard for the dogs to play outside & took them on lots of walks! They only spent the day with them but they got lots of love, exercise & I got a lot of pics! Can’t wait for Lily& Ellie to visit again”
“Jackie was amazing looking after my dog! She and her family treated my dog like he was part of the family! Jackie was very easy to work with, very professional, and it’s easy to tell she has a passion for animals! I will definitely be using her services again!”

About: I have always loved dogs. Since, I was a child pet sitting has been one of my favorite things to do to make extra money. I currently work full-time from home. Having a pet to care for will not only help past time but also bring joy while working full-time. I have lots of free space in my home, allowing pets to run freely throughout their stay. It is very homey for both humans and pets. I will ensure your pet is safe & well taken care of.

About: I grew up on a farm and took care of a variety of animals. As a young teen I spent my summers volunteering at a Vet Clinic where I fed, walked, and bathed numerous cats and dogs. As I got older, I began to pet sit while family and friends went on vacation. I am currently off for the Summer, so I am home all day to ensure your furry friends are well loved. I am available weekdays and weekends. I have an unfenced yard with several trees lining the back of the property. Your pet will be safely supervised while in the yard, whether on the leash or off. Pets can be crated as needed, but are free to roam the house and lay on the furniture. Our home is their home!

About: I have volunteered and worked with animal rescue for over 20 years. I have 10 years professional experience working in cat shelters and I have personally rescued over 30 dogs off the streets and rehabbed them (when living in Puerto Rico). I have experience caring for shy and ill rescue dogs and cats. I also have experience administering medicine and sub q fluids. We are a family of pet lovers and my daughters love having friendly animals to play with. We can take your pup out every 2 hours on leash to our unfenced yard and for walk if they are able. If you would like I can also send you daily updates on your pet. We will treat your pet like a member of the family. For high energy dogs I may need to charge an extra dog walking fee. I will include several walks in the original fee. This is only if I need to walk the dog longer than average. We can discuss this ahead of time. I am a stay at home mom and I have a flexible schedule. We take morning and evening walks plus at least one potty break mid day. Our boarding dogs are part of the family. They share our couch and our beds plus go with us to the playground if they are able.

About: Having had dogs since I was born, and my entire life, I've always been the one in my family to teach them (sit, speak, paw, spin) and care for them when no one else is home. I have cared for a range of dog and cat breeds from when they were babies to in their old age. I hope to care for your animals too. I have a dog, I care for it everyday, and I am currently (June 2026) fostering another dog for a couple of weeks while its owner recovers from surgery. I take them on walks daily and play outside with them. We watch tv and sometimes I read to them (it doesn’t last, they get bored of it). As an owner of a dog with a chicken allergy I can understand specific needs, I prefer a more lax and chilled environment and my energy usually gets pets to follow.
About: I have worked in animal shelters. I have rescued stray and abused animals and helped located their owners and if I couldn't I kept them until they were ready to find a home. I am currently taking college courses to become an animal cop I want to continue to save the abused and neglected animals. I treat my pets like family. I have helped animals including babysitting in my home and at the residents for 18 years. I have worked at the animal shelter and volunteered there. My passion for animals has never changed. My kids also love animals. They have sat and watched animal cops with me and they say to me mommy we need to help them they need a family. It's sweet seeing my kids feeling the same passion as I do. I am a stay at home mom I do babysit kids during the week. I make sure all dogs get exercise while in my home. I have one 12 year old dog I allow all the animals to free roam unless I start seeing some aggression then I do separate bathroom times and things.

About: Whether you have a dog, a cat or both I will be there for your fur-baby and their needs! For those with special needs I am very attentive. Should they just need to rest…I will be there too. My other job is driving for Uber and I work that around Pet Sitting so I'll have plenty of time to walk, play or care for your special friend! I'm not currently available for boarding as my daughter is staying with me and we both have kitties. I like to work my schedule around the pet’s schedule and needs, and provide what each pet is used to on a daily basis - feeding times, medicine administration, sleeping habits, walks, etc.
“Jen was excellent! She sent me pictures from the walk and was very communicative throughout the process. She’s very kind and I could tell my puppy loved her. I will be using her services again.”
“Anastasiya took our girl Charlotte (5 year old Shepsky) for walks while my wife and I went out of town for 4 days. Charlotte can pull from time to time while walking, Anastasiya handled the walks like a pro. She took excellent care of our pup. She was punctual, affordable, dependable, communicated well and went above and beyond for our girl. She will be who we use anytime we go out of town! Thanks Anastasiya!”

From walks and playtime to cuddle breaks, I keep them active and happy while giving them the love and attention they’re used to. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pet.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was around 11. Normally at that age just for close friends and family. I used to walk them and feed them and even sometimes get to bathe them. I have a dog right now and I love him with all my heart!! I absolutely love animals. I’m off on weekends Fridays, Saturday, and free Sunday between 8-11am, so I’d have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I’m available anytime through the week after 5:30pm. I take my dog for walks and potty breaks every 2-3 hours because right now he is a puppy. I would do the same for your pup, as well as play with them or let them outside to play as much as you’d like me to.
About: I am a veterinary medicine scientist at NCSU vet school and I currently care for a variety of livestock on my small farm in Selma, NC! We have horses, chickens, a hermit crab, and a sweet rescued dog named Ladybug! I love spending time with animals and will care for your animal just like my own! I have worked with a professional dog trainer and understand basics of leash walking and basic obedience. I am professional and on-time with appointments, attentive to detail, and highly organized. I have had pets my whole life and worked with animals professionally for about 18 years! I also volunteer with the Wake County SPCA when my schedule allows and passionately advocate for local rescue groups! I work full-time as a scientist who primarily works remotely so my schedule is very flexible during the week and weekends. I also ride horses locally! I only accept 1 client at a time, so your pet will get all the attention they deserve! I am an attentive care-taker for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, livestock (horses, goats, sheep & cows) & birds (parrots & poultry). For pet-sitting on my property your pet will be allowed full access to my home away from my personal pets (I keep my personal animals quarantined in a separate suite within my home when we have visitors) and also have access to our large yard for potty breaks & outside time when weather allows. We also have a large fenced in area for outside playtime when the weather allows!

“Took a last minute booking after our scheduled boarder decided that our dog was too much. Our dog had no issues with her at all. She saved us from being in a bad position and handled our dog who doesn't like being without us without issue for five days.”
“Hannah and Patrick are truly amazing. Our girl is in love with them and their beautiful dog, Bailey. She had the best time. Hannah sent pictures throughout the stay which relieved some of the stress I had leaving my sweet girl. We will for sure use them again. Highly recommended!”
“Very awesome! Blue is on a raw diet and she was willing to accommodate that. She gave me daily updates, which let me know how he was doing! Will definitely be using again!”
“Elaine and her family were wonderful. They treated my dogs like their own. Elaine handled my rambunctious 1 year old dog, Annika like a professional dog trainer and Goose, my 4 year old, enjoyed home school with her daughters. Petunia, Elaine's family dog is very sweet and gets along very well with other dogs. I will definitely look to Elaine in the future for any pet boarding needs.”
“So happy to have found Leonardo & Oriana! They took such good care of my boy. They kept me updated and were very attentive and responsive. Will only book with them as much as I can! Highly recommend!”
“Kelly and Jacob were great. They took care of my hyper 3month old Lab puppy for the weekend. My dog seemed to feel safe with them as he was cuddling up with the kids on the couch. Kelly was great about sending pictures of my puppy during his stay and made me not have to worry about if he was okay.”
“Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.”
“Wonderful!! Responds promptly very friendly. Deann took excellent care of our boy could of not ask for a better sitter. She made us feel very comfortable gave updates during our trip. I would recommend her to everyone”
About: I work fully from home, which allows me to offer a highly attentive and flexible level of care throughout the day. Dogs in my care receive consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. I also have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and my neighborhood has sidewalks that are ideal for daily walks. I currently have two dogs of my own: Neo, a Lab mix, and Luna, a Golden Retriever. Caring for them daily gives me strong hands-on experience with different temperaments, routines, and energy levels, and I’m very comfortable adjusting care based on each dog’s personality and needs. I also foster dogs, including dogs with medical needs and behavioral challenges. This has given me experience administering medication, managing behaviors, recognizing stress signals, and reinforcing basic training techniques when needed. I am comfortable caring for dogs that require extra patience, structure, or individualized attention. Because I truly love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I treat every dog in my care with the same attention and responsibility I give my own. I intentionally provide quality, attentive care and only take bookings I can fully commit to, so each dog receives the attention they deserve. I work from home full time, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Because I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and as many potty breaks as needed. I can easily incorporate walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication if needed, and rest time into the day while making sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. Safety is very important to me. I have a fully fenced yard with a 6-foot fence, which provides a secure space for dogs to spend time outside safely. Because I work from home full time, dogs in my care receive full attention, close supervision, and are never left alone for long periods. I make sure each dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for while following their routine and any specific instructions provided by their owner.
“Sarai and her family were wonderful! They took great care of our dog while we were away and sent photos and updates everyday! We will definitely book again in the future!”
“Luis watched my dog for a long weekend in July 2025. His responsiveness, attention to my dog's routine, and warm and welcoming environment were greatly appreciated. His dog, Elvis, is an absolute sweetie! Luis provided plenty of updates/photos and was very patient when my dog let his puppiness get the best of him. We would definitely use him again!”
“Amber was an awesome sitter. She sent me pictures and updates, by the time I was back to get my baby he was attached to Amber following her around. I would definitely recommend Amber.”
“As usual, Lisa was amazing with Molly. It is such a relief when you have to leave and know your fur baby will be well taken care off. I would recommend Lisa to anyone who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter for your pet.”
“Our goldendoodle Luca had his second week-long stay with Scott and Heather recently and he was so excited when he got to their house! I love that he gets lots of playtime and exercise with other dogs inside and outside as well as plenty of cuddling with the family. We received several daily video and photo updates and I could tell Luca was having as much fun on his vacation as we were! When my dog follows Scott everywhere he goes, I can tell he’s being well taken care of. Scott and Heather will be our first choice when we need to board our fur baby!”
“I had a bad experience with a previous rover sitter so I was so reluctant to leave my baby but Casey eased all of that! She was extremely attentive with our baby. To the point where she will be my go to whenever I'm in the area and she is available. She was kind, very responsive and really eased all of my concerns. Thank you again for caring for our baby especially during our time of need!”
