“This was my first time using rover.com. Megan was so great! She took in and cared for my pup and grandpup. She updated me on how they were doing and sent photos of them as well. I definitely recommend Megan! I got to focus on family without stressing over their care.”
“Thomas and Margaret were absolutely wonderful with our wild rescue and elderly lab. We were worried more about our wild man getting along but she took him right in and assured us he would be fine. Our old girl had an accident we were immediately notified and received updates in case she could have been declining. I know there was cleanup involved and our Zoey was clean as she could be when we picked her up. We received daily check-ins with pictures. Wonderful experience, will re-book!”
“My husband and I were apprehensive about leaving our little Chihuahua mix while out of town. But, we were able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing she was being well taken care of. Courtney was very fast responding to messages and kept us updated with pictures and videos. Our dog had a great time playing with Courtney's dogs and lounging in a very cozy home away from home with lots of cuddles! We will definitely be leaving our dog with Courtney again!”
“If y’all need a sitter in the Goldsboro area, Naomi is the one to go to! She was so caring of my dog and treated him amazingly. So great that he didn’t want to leave her place when I got back. All jokes aside Naomi did a phenomenal job at taking care of my lil boy. Highly recommend her!”
“Allison is the best of the best. She sent me pictures and videos every day. Chance had a ball. She definitely deserves a major reward for letting me have peace of mind on our trip. I absolutely knew Chance was being loved and taken care of just like he is at home. Thanks Allison”
“Sara did a great job taking care of our large puppies. She sent about 3 pictures a day which we really enjoyed and looked forward to. She also played outside with our dogs which they loveddd. I would definitely rebook with Sara.”
“I booked Morgan for a 4-day boarding of my sweet Lily (pitbull/hound mix). Morgan is very sweet and was great at communicating and updating me with photos of Lily and her activities and moods throughout her stay. Morgan has a well-kept area and large backyard for hosting pets. I highly recommend Morgan. It should be noted Morgan has pets of her own and they are all sweet, loving and well tempered which gave Lily companionship during her.”

We are so grateful for the great care and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Juvy took care of Phili. We did not have any problems at all! She updates us everyday and Phili had a great time when he was with her. I will definitely get her again next time! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Kentrice was great with my Siberian husky, it was a last minute booking and she accepted it, no hesitation. She treated frosty like family, with constant updated via messages and photos, I highly recommend Kentrice for your fur babies. Ace”
“Monica and her husband were the absolute best!! During our meet and greet I immediately felt comfortable with them. I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me. My fur baby did not seem stressed or uncared for when I picked him up. If you want a good home for your fur baby and piece of mind while you are away, I would definitely recommend Monica. You will not regret your choice.”
“Lisa did an AMAZING job with my 5month old boxer puppy Avery. She sent me photos while I was away, and let me know how Avery was doing. Avery adjusted very well with Lisa. We will DEFINITELY use her again!!!”

I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me.
