“During our 7 day absence, Jenna took amazing care of our big, socially demanding, sweet cat!! Daily reports and pics clearly reflected interactive play time and our satisfied cat. Upon return, our cat was very settled and did not show any signs of stress. In addition, Jenna took care of the environment. Our cat is a messy eater and sheds horribly. No evidence of said mess was left behind. We are already planning our next experience with Jenna❤️”

About: I have always had a soft spot for cats and find great joy from accompanying them! Previously working at a pet resort educated myself on how to accommodate each unique cat with all their special needs.
About: I absolutely love animals. I've had dogs and cats since I was 6. Since then I've help train a service dog and fostered many other dogs. I currently have three dogs: chihuahua mix, pug rat terrier mix, and a great Pyrenees. I currently am a personal trainer so I don’t have a set schedule. I will be able to let the pet outside or spend time with them in between clients. I can take the pets on daily walks, depending on their schedule and when they like to. I like to know where the food is and if they get treats for doing specific things.
“Very satisfied with Melissa. She took great care of our two cats and cleaned up after them. Great communication with photos and videos of our pets. They seemed quite content when we returned from our trip. I will definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommended.”
“We are repeat customers of Lexi and cannot imagine having anyone else watch our fur babies! One of our dogs had a tough time this stay and Lexi is exactly who you want to love and care for your dog in their time of need when you cannot be there. Incredibly communicative and very personable, Lexi loves our fur babies the way she does her own and we love her for it!”
About: Hi I’m Jastin! I’m 20 years old and I’ve been around and taken care of animals all my life. I have a heart for pets of all kinds, particularly dogs! I worked as a kennel attendant in Waxhaw, NC for almost two years. I have two pets of my own, a dog - Willow, and a cat - Maple. They are very dear to me and I would love to meet your pets and treat them as well as my own! I recently moved to Hubert, NC and work as a Vet Assistant in Jacksonville, NC. I work Monday- Friday, 8-5 so unfortunately I only have weekend (Friday evening - Sunday evening) availability as of now. I find it easier for me as well as your pet to care for them in the comfort of their own home. Your pets happiness and safety is always my top priority!
“Kaylie was awesome with Asher and Sadie. She had patiences with them as it was storming and they were hesitant to go out. But she took them out a few times after the rain let up a little and they finally did their business. She was on time and provided details and asked lots of questions.”
About: I have taken care of all types of animals my entire life. I’ve had many dogs and cats at the same time. I love animals with a passion. I am empathetic to their needs. I understand where certain behaviors develop and how to not only prevent them, but to remove them completely. I have experience in dog training (household, leash, media/film, etc.). I have trained puppies all the way to senior dogs. Being with animals is not a hobby for me; it is a lifestyle.

“My kiddos wanted to go to the waterpark before returning home from our beach vacation but my fur baby wouldn’t be allowed…. Lucky, I was able to find Jessica last minute thru Rover and everything worked out perfectly! I’d never used Rover before and was a bit nervous to entrust a stranger with my lil girl but I ended up being worried for nothing! Lola loved her play date with Jessica’s fur baby, Peanut, and having some time out of the hot sun! Thanks Jessica, you are amazing! I’ll definitely hit you up next time we visit Emerald Isle!”
About: Dogs, cats, birds, and fish . . . These are some of the best friends I’ve had over the last 45 years. All of my pets have lived long, healthy lives based on excellent feeding, grooming, and regular medical care. I genuinely love animals and have a very watchful eye on their well-being. I am a retired school administrator with a 36-year history of creating productive learning environments and protecting the lives of thousands of school children. Care-taking is my thing. Now, I have a very flexible schedule/calendar, and I am wide open to opportunities to meet and care for animals of all shapes, sizes, and colors. I am available to follow instructions for drop-in or pet/house-sitting in the client’s home—including feeding and letting dogs out for potty breaks, feeding and checking in on cats, and feeding fish or birds.
“Addison did a fantastic job with Scout. She provided top-notch care, communicated well, and sent plenty of updates throughout the stay. It’s obvious that she makes visiting pets feel safe and comfortable. I felt completely confident leaving my dog in her hands and will definitely use her services again!”

I work from home and hardly ever leave the house during the day. I take breaks throughout my work day to play in the yard with my dogs.

About: Experienced in animal rehabilitation with a lifelong background growing up on a farm, providing compassionate, attentive care to multiple dog breeds and animals of all ages. As a young adult with no children or personal pets, I offer a calm, spacious environment with plenty of one-on-one attention—perfect for shy dogs needing comfort or outgoing pups ready for play and companionship. Currently, I have availability anytime after 1 PM until August 17. If your dog needs care for multiple days, I am able to stay home and provide around-the-clock attention and companionship. Once school is back in session, I will still be available to care for your furry friend Friday through Sunday. When caring for pets, I pay close attention to their body language and individual needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and respected. My home has a fenced backyard where they can use the restroom, play, and get exercise. Pets can stay comfortably inside the house or in the garage depending on their needs and preferences. I am happy to discuss any specific routines, requirements, or accommodations to help provide them with a safe and enjoyable stay.

“When my AC broke in the middle of the night, I had to find last-minute daycare for my dog. I sent Clayton a message at 4 in the morning for a 730 drop off, and he replied and accepted my request within 5 mins. My dog is almost 13 and has been nervous around other dogs ever since he was attacked a few years ago. I was really hesitant about leaving him somewhere new, but Clayton’s reviews gave me confidence. And when we arrived, my dog walked in calmly and didn’t seem scared at all even with other dogs around. Clayton’s own dogs were so gentle and sweet, and mine quickly made a new best friend. Clayton stayed in touch throughout the day and sent lots of photos. My dog looked relaxed, happy, and like he was truly having fun. You can tell Clayton genuinely cares and treats your pets like his own. I won’t trust anyone else with my dog from now on.”
“Samantha is wonderful with dogs! Our Corgi and Shiba Inu adored her and had a wonderful time staying with her. My husband and I could not have been happier with her care. We will be using her whenever we visit our relatives in the area :-)”

I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: Experience: With over 20 years of hands on experience caring for dogs, I treat every pet like family. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and care. I love staying active with dogs through walks, playtime, and enrichment, but I’m just as happy giving extra cuddles and companionship to those who need a slower pace. My goal is always to make your pet feel happy, secure, and loved just like they would at home. Why choose me? I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely love what I do. I provide updates, photos, and peace of mind so you always know your pet is in great hands. You can trust that your dog will be safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way.

About: • All breeds, temperaments, sizes & quirks • Administering medications • Decade of dog care and training experience Hi, I’m Kylie! I’ve been working with dogs for over a decade, including time spent learning under and alongside professional dog trainers. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and quirks. I run my services out of my home, where every dog is treated like family. We’ve created a dedicated dog room designed for comfort, structure, and relaxation, giving pups their own safe space when needed. Our fully fenced-in yard provides plenty of room for supervised play, exercise, and fresh air, so your dog can enjoy a balance of activity and downtime. I do my best to keep each pup’s daily routine as close to their at-home schedule as possible, which helps them feel comfortable and lowers stress. My care is always personalized—whether your dog needs extra playtime, calm companionship, or structured guidance, I adjust to fit their needs. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I make sure every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well taken care of. During the day, dogs in my care follow a balanced and structured routine designed to keep them happy, comfortable, and engaged. Potty breaks are offered every two hours (unless an owner requests otherwise), giving each pup plenty of chances to go outside and stretch their legs. Playgroups are always supervised and matched based on each dog’s likes, dislikes, and play style, so social time is safe and enjoyable. Mini training sessions can be worked into the day upon request, reinforcing good manners and keeping pups mentally stimulated. To help dogs recharge, I include structured nap times where they can relax in a calm environment. And of course, there’s plenty of time to hang out with humans—whether that’s lounging on the furniture for snuggles or just enjoying companionship. This balance of activity, rest, and affection ensures every dog feels at home while staying with me. As a stay at home wife my entire day is structured around our own dogs and our visiting dogs. In my home we do boarding and daycare! Boarding dogs are on a slightly different schedule than daycare dogs, as they’re with me all day instead of only during the day. Boarding dogs routines vary based off energy level, temperament and their usual routine at their own homes. Depending on the dogs temperament and who they get along with we swap play groups around just to ensure the best time for everyone! All dogs in my home are treated like family. I’d want my own dogs to be treated as such during boarding or daycare, so it makes sense that i treat all client dogs the same.
About: I have multi-dog household experience. There has always been at least two dogs in my house growing up, they’re my favorite animals. I have a chocolate Labrador named Whiskey, and a Schnoodle named Max. My chihuahua sadly passed away. I love to meet and have other dogs in my house. I’m comfortable administering oral medication if needed. I’ll send daily photo updates. I’m a stay at home mom so there’s always time to care and play with our furry kids. I wake up between 6-8am and go to bed by 10pm. When I need to leave the house to run errands, I don’t take longer than 3 hours at a time, so I make sure my pets are taken outside for potty and water breaks. There is a fenced area in the back of our house, and a big open area. I can take them out on a leash if needed or crate them if they’re not house trained.
About: I have been caring for and watching dogs since I was a young child. Unfortunately, my husband and I are not currently able to get a dog due to the uncertainty of work schedules. Therefore, I decided that there was no better place for me than rover! I would love spending the afternoon walking, playing, hiking, or running with your dog! I have plenty of space for your dog to explore outside, or take them to mini trips to the dog park or to get a pupcup! I grew up with 3 golden retrievers, but have experience caring for pitbulls, dachshunds, boxers, red heeler, pugs, etc. I am also willing to take the time to learn the specific needs of your pet and take the extra step to build a relationship with them to give them the care they need. Please read the "cat care details" to see how I would care for your kitty friends! ☺️ I currently work part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I offer boarding 7 days a week and pet walking and at home visits in the afternoons after 3 pm or anytime on the weekends! I have an open yard for your dogs to run or explore. Your doggos are free to lounge on my furniture or bring their own beds & blankies to sleep on. When caring for dogs at their home, I will gladly take them on however long of a walk they're used to. (I love walking, running, and hiking).
About: As a Family I’ve been taking care of pets for over 40 years. We took in bunnies, parakeets, dogs, cats. Especially close to my heart are senior pets. I am retired but help out with school drop off and pick up for my grandkids and watch them when they are out of school. They are all pet lovers and respectful of pets. I have a fenced in backyard and an elderly dog who loves spending time with other dogs I also go to friends and relatives houses to take care of their pets.
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals—especially dogs! Whether it’s going on long walks, playing fetch, or just giving belly rubs on the couch, I make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while their humans are away. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to senior sweethearts, and I treat each one like part of the family. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I’m attentive, patient, and experienced with feeding schedules, medication, crate training, and special needs care. You can enjoy your time away knowing your furry friend is in kind and capable hands. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet—I’d love to get to know you and your pup! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work full-time from 7am to 4pm, but I’m still flexible and make time for morning walks, evening visits, and weekend care. I’m committed to making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for—whether it’s a quick drop-in or an overnight stay. Your pet’s comfort is always a priority in my schedule. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their usual routine. I stick to their feeding schedule, take them on familiar walks, give them playtime, and make sure they feel safe in their own space. I also keep the home tidy and send regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I offer plenty of attention, outdoor time, and a cozy place to rest—just like home. I’m mindful of each pet’s needs and personality, making sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember ! Growing up, I spent much of my time volunteering at a local animal shelter alongside my grandmother, where I helped feed the cats, clean their spaces, and make sure they felt safe and cared for. I was also actively involved in her animal rescue work, regularly attending adoption events , walking and caring for adoptable dogs and cats , and helping animals find their forever homes. Those experiences taught me how to understand animal behavior, build trust with shy or nervous pets, and provide calm, patient care. Today, I’m a proud cat mom to two rescue cats of my own, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I’m experienced with animals of all personalities , from playful and social to timid or independent, and I always take the time to make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, or just a gentle, reassuring presence while you're away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I run my own business from home, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule and come and go as needed. I can provide care for most of the day & night for house sitting services. I will be happy to petsit your animals in your home. Whether that means drop ins, house sitting, or dog walking, you can trust that your animals and your home will be in good hands with me. You can rest assured that when you book with me , your animals will get my full attention and care, and you as their owner will receive clear communication and updates from me every step of the way. I own two cats of my own that I love very much, so I understand just how important it is to make sure they are in good hands , safe , and well taken care of while you are away. I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own !
About: I have always grown up with animals and my love for them led me to a job at a pet resort. I was a kennel technician for 4 years which provided me great insight to care for all types of furry friends. I just graduated college from UNC Charlotte and home in Emerald Isle for the summer. Most days I workout and hang with my family so my schedule is pretty flexible. I always try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they’re used to because I know how stressful change can feel—especially for anxious pets. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I make it my priority to provide comfort, consistency, and lots of love while they’re away from their parents.
About: I am currently a vet assistant and in school to earn my degree in Veterinary Technology! I have a black lab and a DMH cat. I have a lot of experience working with animals and would love to get to know yours! I currently work full time as a vet assistant! I am off every Saturday and Sunday and available after 12 on Mondays! If you need me after 5 during the week days, I can make that work as well! I am currently unable to care for your pets in my home, but I will be happy to follow any instruction that you have for your animal in your home. I have experience with puppies as well so I don't mind cleaning any mess that may occur.
“Liz is super. She is reliable to come when scheduled. If there are any changes, she is flexible to our needs. Communication is great; she always provides a report and photos. Most importantly, she loves Baby and gives her the attention needed. If you are looking for an experienced person to love and walk your dog, look no further. We highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I'm Lindsay, a lifelong dog lover and owner, and caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I've been pet sitting since college, both in my own home and in clients' homes. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I work hard to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. From energetic puppies to laid-back senior dogs, I enjoy building trust with pets and providing the same level of care I would want for my own animals. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. 🐾❤️ I'm currently on summer break from teaching, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I can provide consistent attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship to help keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away. I want every pet to feel comfortable and cared for while their family is away. I will follow your pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, and playtime. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision to help pets feel safe, relaxed, and happy.
About: Ive had dogs, cats, ferrets, turtles, fish and more ever since I was little. I currently have dogs and ferrets who are my whole world. I currently have plenty of free time not just for my own furry friends but to help others give their furry friends the best life possible. I have a senior citizen beagle who has severe hip dysplasia and arthritis he takes medication 3 times a day orally, I also have a 4 year old mix breed puppy who is high energy and loves going on hikes and adventures. I recently got a great pyrenees/husky baby who is my little panda baby but loves going on walks, playing outside, going for car rides and being social.
About: I have always had a heart for dogs and have always been an animal lover, I have a variety of animals and that is what makes me different I am a college student at Nc state but my courses are earlier in the day and I do not have class on Fridays so if there was weekend that an anima needed to be watch I can be there! I take care of my pets like I take care of myself if I am eating they will be fed. I love to be outdoors, so I always make sure I bring my animals outside and do new things because it’s their first time living too.
About: I love animals, especially dogs, more than words can express! We have always had small dogs in our family since I was born. I could never imagine living without a dog in my household. In fact I have always had my miniature schnauzers as my fur babies since my early 20’s. I also use my endless dog walks as another form of exercise especially with the awesome beach roads all over the island that we are fortunate to enjoy living on the island. Since I never had children I have extremely spoiled animals. Me and my husband are retired and I work a very part time job so have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. My husband may also like to join in with my walks as well to help keep your pooch entertained and continue with our daily exercise regimen. If your pet does not do well on long walks please mention that so we don’t wear them out too much! I would like to walk your dog on the beach or beach access if allowed. If you would rather we stay on the neighborhood streets that’s fine too! My house/pet sitting service will include feeding, playing, walking, cleaning up pet waste in yard or litter box and light housekeeping such as vacuuming up pet fur if applicable. I have a very flexible schedule. I do work a few days a week part time but only 4-5 hr shifts at a time. I would love to be your pet’s next best friend! I am an extremely anal retentive pet owner and home owner. I probably take better care of my pets than my own self! We do not miss any yearly vet appointments and are very attentive to any ailments that may come along. I always say the worst part of being a pet owner is when they have to cross the rainbow bridge.
About: I have taken care of all types of animals my entire life. I’ve had many dogs and cats at the same time. I love animals with a passion. I am empathetic to their needs. I understand where certain behaviors develop and how to not only prevent them, but to remove them completely. I have experience in dog training (household, leash, media/film, etc.). I have trained puppies all the way to senior dogs. Being with animals is not a hobby for me; it is a lifestyle. I work part time and have plenty of time, particularly before 4pm to play with your pups or kitties! I will assess inquiries on a case by case basis dependent on my availability. I will follow whatever systems you have in place for your furry friend. I can go on walks, play in the backyard, crate if necessary, feed and give medications, etc. I also can make and deliver my premium dog and cat food that I make with 100% whole and mainly organic ingredients for an additional charge.
About: I been around animals my whole life. I work from home and can be available for all your pet needs. I have a large fenced in back yard! I work from home and hardly ever leave the house during the day. I take breaks throughout my work day to play in the yard with my dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a safe neighborhood to take dogs on walks. I like play time in the back yard and walks around the neighborhood with the dogs.
“Robyn was timely, communicative, and very attentive to both my requests and concerns regarding my reactive dog. She has extensive knowledge of animals, and I felt confident knowing my dog was in good hands during their visits. I really appreciated her professionalism, patience, and understanding.”
About: I’ve cared to dogs since I was 12, beginning with family pets and expanding to neighbors and friends. I helped raise a littler of ten black lab puppies, ensuring they received proper nutrition and constant affection. I’ve cared for many breeds in a variety of settings, including watching and managing up to 5 black labs at once, taking them on structured walks, playing with there favorite toys and keeping their routines calm and consistent. My experience cover feeding schedules, baths, crate safety and off leash play. I am currently a student at coastal Carolina community college as a dental assisting student. Mondays and Thursday I get out of class at 11:40 and 12:50. Tuesdays I arrive at school @11 and leave @3:40, Wednesdays 8-2:40 and Fridays 10-2:40. On weekends I’m available and times after school. I have a back yard, not fenced in. Pets in my home are not treated bad, not screamed at or hit to be punished. They are always treated like my own, with cuddles, little snacks if allowed and plenty of play time. They would go on walks and be seen by other individuals for petting if the owner is comfortable.

“Aanchal is the perfect pet sitter. She communicates extremely well and is enthusiastic about boarding your pet. Our dog, Colden, had a wonderful weekend stay!

Thank you Aanchal!”

“Karen was phenomenal! She provided excellent communication throughout our dog’s stay and was incredibly attentive and caring. She treated our dog like her own, taking her on walks, car rides, and fun adventures around the community. We loved receiving regular updates, messages, and photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing she was well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Karen to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
