“This was my first time trying Rover and Ms. Kimberly's services, and I had a wonderful experience. She was incredibly patient with both Judah and me, understanding my initial nervousness and reassuring me every step of the way, whether through phone calls, videos, or photos. She truly made the entire process feel easy and safe. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring service.”


“Thank you Margo for stepping in to take care of Sonny last minute due to a schedule change from previous boarder. You made our Christmas less stressful and Sonny seems to have had a good time.”

“Excellent care for my pup! Keno is a 50 pound untrained puppy that loves to jump, snuggle, and be in your personal space which means he can be a lot, but Naomi welcomed him and treated him like family. I would highly recommend her and will certainly ask her to dog sit again! 😊”

“We were so pleased with the care Allison showed our fur babies. She kept in touch through messages and plenty of pictures to reassure us that they were doing great! I would definitely recommend her for your fur babies home away from home. We’ll definitely let our babies stay again.”

“Morgan is amazing! This was our first time leaving our babies with anyone outside of family and Morgan made sure to help us feel comfortable by having a meet and greet with her pups and providing pics, videos and texts throughout their stay. She was super flexible with drop-off and pick-up times too. The pups had a wonderful time and came home happy. Highly recommend Morgan.”


“Excellent sitters! They made our first stay worry free with curtesy updates on our fur babies! Great set up! The puppies enjoyed playing in the fully fenced in backyard! I don’t think they wanted to leave!😂”


“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: 🐾 About Me Pets aren’t just pets — they’re family. ❤️ I’m a military spouse and lifelong animal lover. Before being stationed in North Carolina, I spent six years working at an animal hospital in Rhode Island, where I worked as a veterinary assistant, cared for animals in the kennel, and provided dog-sitting services. I truly understand how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about mine. I’ll treat your furry family members with the same love, patience, attention, and care I would want for my own.

Your pets will be treated like family in my care. 🐾❤️ I’ll care for your dogs and cats with patience, love, and lots of attention while you’re away. ❤️🐶🐱 I’m available for regular walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention, while keeping each pet’s routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. Your home is your pets safe space, I'll treat it with the same care and respect I'll give your pets. During checkins, walks or playtime I will keep a close eye on their safety and follow your routines and instructions.

“Kentrice took very good care of our 10.5 yr old basset hound, sent pictures and kept us updated. Our dog has separation anxiety and she seemed at ease with Kentrice. I would definitely recommend and will use her in the future if needed.”

“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.”

“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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Karin took amazing care of my Zucchini! This was my first time using Rover so I was naturally nervous to drop my baby off, but I felt better knowing she would have around the clock human care and interaction while I was gone because I know she gets lonely on shorter trips when I've had friends just drop in. Karin assured me Zucchini would be fine, and she was! She sent me updates and pictures daily to let me know how Zucchini was doing. She even went the extra mile and clipped Zucchini's nails for me, which I greatly appreciated because the week up to me leaving had been tough on a personal level and I had planned to clip Zucchini's nails before her Rover stay but never got around to it. Karin is one of the nicest people I've met and best pet mama, she was very flexible with pick up/drop off times and even offered to come pick Zucchini up for me if needed before I left. I definitely plan to use her services again in the future if she will have us. Thank you Karin for making my first Rover experience a great one.”

“Katrina is a wonderful sitter and I would 100% recommend her. She sincerely loves your pets and puts in an extra effort out to make sure that they are happy and taken care off.

“I had the pleasure of having Alexandria watch Alpha, and I am delighted to provide a review of her services. Alexandria was an outstanding pet sitter who demonstrated a high level of understanding, flexibility, and reliability throughout her time caring for Alpha. First and foremost, I was impressed by Alexandria's understanding of my pets' needs. She took the time to listen attentively and ask thoughtful questions about their routines, dietary restrictions, and any specific care instructions. This demonstrated her dedication to providing personalized care for each of my pets. Additionally, Alexandria exhibited great flexibility in accommodating my schedule and any last-minute changes that arose. She was always willing to adjust her visits or stay longer if needed, which gave me peace of mind knowing that my pets were in good hands even during unexpected circumstances. Reliability was another commendable trait displayed by Alexandria. She arrived promptly for each visit and followed the agreed-upon schedule diligently. I never had to worry about the well-being of Alpha or the reliability of her services. Overall, Alexandria exceeded my expectations as a pet sitter. Her understanding of my pet needs, flexibility in scheduling, and reliable service made me feel confident and reassured that my pets were receiving excellent care in my absence.

“I was very pleased with Kristina's daily updates and the care she took in watching Nymphadora while I was away. She went above and beyond and even helped put the cover back on my motorcycle when she noticed it wasn't fully on. The photo updates were also nice to receive and made me laugh seeing Nymphadora peeking at the new people in her home.”


“Cassie did a great job of keeping us updated on our pets while we were away! She provided a thorough update on their moods, health, and appetites, and took the best pictures! She even took the time to meet them beforehand and ensured we felt comfortable with her. If something looked off in the house, she advised us of that as well. We could tell that our pets were well taken care of and had gotten plenty of play time and attention. Would recommend Cassie as she obviously loves animals and cared for our pets so well!”


“Kat was exceptional! She not only did what was needed but went above and beyond for our furbabies. Even after one specific hard day she still made a point to do her check in even though it wasn’t specifically needed. She communicated with me the whole time and sent lovely pictures. She even cleaned up a little on her last day as a special cherry on top. Will be using her services again!”


“Kentrice was AMAZING with my cat! She was incredibly punctual, very friendly and knowledgeable, and even her cats were so good to my cat. She sent the cutest pictures to me constantly, and communicated how my boy was doing very very often! I am for sure booking with her again in the future, she squeezed us in last minute which was amazing cause someone canceled on us!! I highly recommend her!”

About: I have had both cats and dogs almost my entire life and have worked as a Veterinarian Technician in an animal shelter and for a small family owned Vet. I strive to bring my knowledge and love for animals to my community so that pet care can be more affordable for regular people (such as myself). With the knowledge I have gathered from both working in office, having pets, sitting family pets, and my many years of pet grooming I hope to make my home a safe haven for your pet. We can also discuss natural treatments for pets which I've studied for a while now when it comes to specific breeds, mixed breeds, and their genetic ailments. I will soon be making all natural dog & cat treats for pets. I can also train pets through the treat/clicker system which has worked well for all of my pets and a plenty of others. If you would like for me to train them please let me know. Please contact me directly. I currently work from home and have a really flexible schedule. More than likely your pet will stay in the room with me (if they choose as i love cuddles as much as they might). Your pet can also hang out in the living room if they choose. They will go outside as many times as needed through the day until I get off at 5:30pm which then we will go for a walk. I also have a back yard. In which I will allow them to exert any additional energy throughout the day. I care for pets by paying attention to them and understanding the small hints they give indicating what they need at that time. I also create a potty schedule based on the dogs water/food intake to avoid accidents. I have no pets at the time so your pet will have my full attention. If permitted by the owner, I will groom, bathe, and train their pets.

About: I am very energetic! I love to play outside with dogs. I love to play fetch and ball. I love to play in the sprinkler with dogs.

I always make sure that the dog feels comfortable at all times, and I always keep the owner updated to keep them comfortable and relaxed.

I have a very open schedule throughout the week and would love to play with your fur baby while you are away! So don't you worry, they will definitely get loved on until you get back! One way I ensure your baby is safe is by always going outside with them even when it's bad weather! I try to always make sure that your fur baby feels calm and safe no matter the situation. Another way I make sure they are safe is ensuring they are not in an area they are not normally allowed in alone. If we were to go on a walk or an adventure, I'd make sure they have on their collar and leash and of course send you lots of pictures while we're out!

I’m currently committed to this line of service, so there should be little issue with showing up and providing care. The work that I do otherwise, is remote and won’t get in the way of my responsibilities. In the past, I have administered oral medication for a small dog that I was pet sitting for. I make sure to be on top of bathroom breaks as well as check-ins. I would visit my aunts house twice a day to check in on her cats and to provide them with fresh food and water.
About: I have worked with Anna’s Angels doggy day care (4 years) & unleashed (2years). I have also had a variety of animals in my life. Animals are loving and caring, you just have to be patient with them. I have experience with grooming maintenance and health care aid as well. I treat all animals like family, Yes!! I allow all pets on my couches, bed , furniture (etc). I’m a a college student studying to get my degree in psychology. This has left me with a lot of free time. I tend to just dog sit my sisters 2 miniature pinscher‘s but I was introduced to Rover and with my love for animals I thought we’d be a great fit. Usually I’d assist with grooming, walks/play time, cleaning of feeding bowls, cages/beds area, refilling food/water or any special request that is needed at the time.
About: Hi there! I’m Z, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a deep understanding of both cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs and have a wonderful cat of my own. I also have years of experience caring for the pets of both my family and friends. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or ensuring your pet sticks to their routine, I treat every furry friend like they’re part of my own family. As someone who works part-time during the day, I have the flexibility to provide pet care in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. My schedule allows me to plan drop-in visits, walks, or playtime around your pet’s needs. Caring for animals is a natural part of my routine since I already care for my own cat. Whether it’s an early-morning visit before work or evening cuddles, I’m happy to adapt to ensure your pet feels loved and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and happy in their familiar surroundings. I stick to their established routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, or walks, to keep things consistent and comforting for them. For dogs, that might mean exciting walks or outdoor play, while cats might prefer quiet companionship or engaging with their favorite toys. I make sure their environment stays clean and safe, and I’m happy to administer medications or meet any special needs. Along with meeting their physical needs, I give plenty of cuddles and attention to help them feel secure and loved. I treat every pet like part of my own family, ensuring they’re well cared for until their owner returns.

She was willing to help in anyway possible. She was great with Tilly and provided excellent feedback on her walks! Highly recommend.”

Dog walking: during walks, I focus on safety and exercise, making sure each dogs get the right pace and level of activity for their needs. Drop ins: when visiting a clients home, I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, get bathroom breaks, and receive attention and playtime.

“Thank you Margo for stepping in to take care of Sonny last minute due to a schedule change from previous boarder. You made our Christmas less stressful and Sonny seems to have had a good time.”

“We were so pleased with the care Allison showed our fur babies. She kept in touch through messages and plenty of pictures to reassure us that they were doing great! I would definitely recommend her for your fur babies home away from home. We’ll definitely let our babies stay again.”

“Morgan is amazing! This was our first time leaving our babies with anyone outside of family and Morgan made sure to help us feel comfortable by having a meet and greet with her pups and providing pics, videos and texts throughout their stay. She was super flexible with drop-off and pick-up times too. The pups had a wonderful time and came home happy. Highly recommend Morgan.”

About: 🐾 About Me Pets aren’t just pets — they’re family. ❤️ I’m a military spouse and lifelong animal lover. Before being stationed in North Carolina, I spent six years working at an animal hospital in Rhode Island, where I worked as a veterinary assistant, cared for animals in the kennel, and provided dog-sitting services. I truly understand how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about mine. I’ll treat your furry family members with the same love, patience, attention, and care I would want for my own.

“Kentrice took very good care of our 10.5 yr old basset hound, sent pictures and kept us updated. Our dog has separation anxiety and she seemed at ease with Kentrice. I would definitely recommend and will use her in the future if needed.”

“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.”

“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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Karin took amazing care of my Zucchini! This was my first time using Rover so I was naturally nervous to drop my baby off, but I felt better knowing she would have around the clock human care and interaction while I was gone because I know she gets lonely on shorter trips when I've had friends just drop in. Karin assured me Zucchini would be fine, and she was! She sent me updates and pictures daily to let me know how Zucchini was doing. She even went the extra mile and clipped Zucchini's nails for me, which I greatly appreciated because the week up to me leaving had been tough on a personal level and I had planned to clip Zucchini's nails before her Rover stay but never got around to it. Karin is one of the nicest people I've met and best pet mama, she was very flexible with pick up/drop off times and even offered to come pick Zucchini up for me if needed before I left. I definitely plan to use her services again in the future if she will have us. Thank you Karin for making my first Rover experience a great one.”

“Katrina is a wonderful sitter and I would 100% recommend her. She sincerely loves your pets and puts in an extra effort out to make sure that they are happy and taken care off. She is flexible and accommodates to your pets regular routine and special needs. And most importantly she is super responsive and provides frequent updates about your babies.”
