“Brooke is amazing. She and her beautiful family welcomed Jack Jack with open arms and he immediately felt at home in her house. We were happy he was so comfortable and we are very pleased to see him just as happy when we picked him up. We plan on using her services again in the near future.”

“I left my 6 month old Vizsla with Lindy for my first time being away from her since I got her. She sent me pictures and videos everyday while I was gone which made it easier being away from my puppy. I would highly suggest her to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the area. My puppy came home extremely happy and sleepy which is great for me after a long trip!”

“Luna is always loved when she goes. He sends updates and pictures, and this always reassures she is being well taken care of! Will be using again if we go out of town!”

“If you love your dog and want someone who loves your dog as much as you do. Alexandra is that person. My dog had so much fun playing with all the dogs she has there. She has two of her own that are as sweet as can be. Her home is clean and beautiful, her back yard is big and fenced. She was very quick to respond to all my questions, she doesn't take mean dogs that are not a fit. I received many photos and videos during my dog's visit. I couldn't be happier to find Alexandra and will be using her services for as long as she continues to babysit my baby. I knew Alexandra was special because she enjoyed watching the dogs all play together as much as I did.”

“Excellent experience with Jennifer. Took my pup in on short notice and was extremely flexible for drop off and pick up. Sent pictures and kept us updated on how things were going. Will definitely use again!”

“Heather is the best! She takes great care of Indy, and is a strong communicator. Indy loves being at her house and has a great time in her fenced in yard. 10000% reccomend”

“Lili loved our two pups like they were here own. They came home very happy and tired. Lili also sent us lots of pictures and updates every day. I would highly recommend her! Thank you so much again Lili ♥️”

“Annie is great with our 2 older dogs. Daily updates and photos showed us they are being taken care of with love and patience......they settled in nicely and Annie and her husband treat our dogs just as they do their own. We highly recommend Annie!”
“Mary was fantastic! I needed her last min for a long trip. My dogs can be a handful and Mary was extremely accommodating. She made my kids feel at home and she sent pics and updates that made my time away from them easier. My trip ended early and Mary offered to go above and beyond because of the circumstances. My kiddos came home tired and happy! Thank you!”
“Shiloh really enjoyed her sleepover at Lucia’s. She was well fed, got to make some new doggie friends, and best of all got lots of love and attention. Shiloh and I highly recommend Lucia, she’s kind, patient, and caring.”

About: I became a dog mom at 19, and have been dog-sitting off and on ever since! While the extra income is always nice, I mainly do it to prevent coming home with a new puppy every week. I treat all the dogs I meet like they're my own and give them as much love as I do to my own babies - an 11 year old Lab mix and 6 year old German Shepherd! They both have loved every dog I've ever had staying at my house. I'm comfortable with all breeds and all ages, and have no problem giving medications if needed. I am available during the daytime for long walks and have a very flexible work schedule, which means a lot of play time for your pup! I’m currently working remote part-time and have the flexibility to choose my own hours, which means I have plenty of spare time during the day to spend with your pup! I treat your pets as if they are my own, giving them the same amount of love and attention if not more! I always make sure they are well cared for and that the client comes home to a clean house and happy pets!
“I needed a boarding for a couple of nights for my dog, Kinako, at the very last minute. Jessica and her family were very accommodating to my request. When we had a meet in the evening before, I had a faith and I knew they are the ones! Kinako immediately made herself comfortable at their home. Their dog is sweet and friendly. They made friends with each other right away. While I was away, it was great to see the update picture, and I felt at ease. When I picked Kinako up, I could tell that she had a wonderful time at their lovely home. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us. Kinako and I are looking forward to the next opportunities.”

“Evelin and Joel were great hosts, and took good care of Niki while we were out of town. Their place was well suited for three dogs, and Niki was fine after the initial meet-and-greet. Evelin and Joel kept us up to date with pictures and comments while we were gone. Thanks! Al & Billie”

“David took great care of my pup while I went out of town. He updated me with messages and pictures each day, which I really appreciated. My pup looked so happy and relaxed, clearly she had a great little vacation too! Highly recommend and would definitely book again.”

“Taylor did a great job with our Old English Bully. Our Luna is a high energy unique Bully and Taylor was able to keep up! Taylor has great communication and she is mindful about the dogs needs and behaviors. Luna had a great time and we were able to relax and enjoy our time away.”

“I cannot say enough great things about this dog sitting family! My two dogs absolutely adored their two kiddos! They enjoyed playing outside with the family's dog, Yogi. Even Rowen, who usually prefers staying inside, joined in on the fun and had a wonderful time.🤗 I felt at ease the whole time I was out of town because they kept me updated and sent pictures. 10/10 would recommend 👌🏽”

“Christy was wonderful! She was able to come in and fill in within a few days. This was my first experience with Christy and Rover and I will definitely be asking her again. She's pleasant and personable. Callie must have enjoyed the stay since she jumped up in her lap on the first day.”


About: Along with my experiences with Dogs, I'm also verses in the world of cats! Whether they're shy and playful, or sassy and cute, I love them all! Taking care of cats of my own has gained me knowledge in how to tell when they're in a playful mood, back off when they need some space, and of course, when to bring in the meowmix! ;) Playtime will also be in the running for when they want to! I also surprisingly enjoy my own ritual of cleaning the litter box! Please consider me for you Kitty care ❤

About: I have always loved all kinds of pets, and cats are no exception. I absolutely love listening to them motor away while I pet them, or just appreciate their presence as they do their own thing from a distance! I have experience caring for a few senior cats, including ones with hip dysplasia or kidney issues that require oral medication.
“James did a great job with Ms. Kitty, we will Definitely call on him again for our next trip. Our cat is getting older, she is 13, and we were gone for 5 days. We have never left her alone for that long, but James took very good care of her. Thank you James!”


About: Over the years I have been the go to for friends and family who needed a cat sitter. I’m also very thorough when it comes to cats that require a bit of extra special care. I’ll be sure to tire them out in preparation for their next nap.
“Thank you for the piece of mind. AJ doesn't do well in cages, and so him being home and in a familiar location is great. He was clearly less stressed when I came home than when I've had him boarded before. Will use again.”

“Ariana accepted our booking almost last minute when we found that we had to travel out of state. They were able to visit our three "gentlemen" daily and ensure they were fed, had water and took time to interact and play with them. They also ensured the litter was fresh and sent us daily reports with pictures. We very much appreciated the peace of mind and the boys were very happy with them as well! Thank you!”

“Kimberly was great and we felt at ease while on our trip! We are a bit of a unique pet-sitting client as we have two cats of our own and then also foster. Kimberly took care of a total of 5 adult cats and 4 two-week old kittens for us while we were away for a long weekend. We came back to happy and fed cats, which is exactly what we asked for.”

“If you want peace of mind for your pets while you are away, Holly will give you that!! She is wonderful. We loved getting the daily updates and photos/videos. The kitties were comfortable with Holly. She made them feel loved and well taken care of. She even went out of her way to bring in our house Amazon boxes that were delivered. We love Holly and will be booking with her again each time we are away!!”


About: I've had experience in handling and providing care for cats of all temperaments from my own to working with boarding cats at kennels and the SPCA. I am comfortable adminstering medicine through food or using a pill pusher or pill pockets. Growing up one of my cats had issues with her kidneys and I administered her pills with a pusher as it was the only way to reliability know she received her life saving medicine every morning. I have a young cat of my own who is a bit on the spunky side but I love him reguardless of all the sass! At the SPCA I made sure all our cats in the facility were fed and had a clean kennel. I enjoyed free time providing enrichment through play or for the more shy cats sitting quietly and allowing them to come and go as they pleased.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats of all personalities, including fostering both feral and domestic cats. I’m comfortable administering medications when needed, keeping litter boxes clean, and I truly enjoy spending quality time playing, bonding, and giving affection.

“Brooke and her family were great! They clearly took great care of my pup as he was content around her, but worn out and ready to nap by the time we got in the car. She was really flexible and great at communicating. Would recommend and will use again in the future!”

“Jeannette was very attentive to my dog’s needs. She was updating me throughout the day and were able to recognize Mia’s behaviors. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a doggy day care. And her puppy is incredibly friendly and adorable, too. Makes for an amazing companion for your pet.”

“Jennifer was very accommodating and friendly. We dropped our dog two days in a row for daycare, and he was very happy when we picked him and excited to return the next day. We will definitely go to Jennifer again when we’re back in Pinehurst.”

“Lucia was amazing with my two dogs. One of which is super shy but she made her feel so at home that in just two visits had her snuggle with her. Loved all the photos too! Definitely using her again.”

“We had a great day! Whitney was awesome. She let me run & play with her dogs. She took me for walks. She even let me sit on her lap..., not that I gave her much choice! LOL. Mom said I could come back anytime. I sure hope it's soon!! --- Bronwyn, Rottweiler dog”

About: My husband and I have had many pets over the years---dogs, cats and small animals. We have experience, patience and energy for puppies up to senior dogs. We both work from home and make our own schedules so we are able to adjust our schedule to YOUR schedule. We can do daily walks, feeding and boarding in our home. We have a fully fenced in area for potty breaks and play. Our home is dog proofed and safe for puppies as well. We have 2 pups of our own who love to play with other dogs--big and small :)
About: Hi! I’m Kat — and I offer personalized walks and enrichment as a trusted extension of your dog’s care team. I know how hard it is to leave your dog. They’re family. Clear communication and consistency matter, and I take that seriously. Every visit is an opportunity to build trust — with both you and your pup. You’ll receive thoughtful updates that include notes on energy, potty, behavior, and anything I’m noticing (because yes, I absolutely pay attention to the details). I truly treat each dog as the individual they are. Some are bold explorers. Some are thoughtful observers. Some love a purposeful walk, while others prefer a slower pace with time to sniff and take it all in. I adjust each visit based on age, health, temperament, and your household routines — meeting your dog where they are and supporting what helps them thrive. I’m especially attentive to patterns — what helps a dog feel calm, confident, and engaged. Safety and steady leadership are always my priorities. I’m mindful at doors, leashes, transitions, and the environment around us so your dog’s experience is secure, structured, and positive.
About: I have tons of experience in doggy day care, and my husband and I moved to the area 3 years ago. He is active duty ARMY, so he can be gone a lot, and what better way to fill the time than with furry friends! I will love your dog like my own. I go to the gym in the morning, than I am home the rest of the day! We will have plenty of time for walks and play time and I hope you meet you and you furry friend soon! I am getting my masters degree in nutrition from an online university so I do all of my work from home! It is the perfect home for your doggie too! I will love your pet as you do! Walk and feed in the morning and then feed and a walk after dinner plus the dog gets free roam in and out of the house because we have a fully fenced in yard I’m a stay at home mom with two little kids! They are two and five. We have a huge fenced in yard and I am never gone for more than an hour or two.
“Chelsey is amazing and was an absolute lifesaver! I unexpectedly had to work remotely out of town and needed last minute help with my dog. I messaged her early that morning on a whim, and she responded immediately. She even came to pick my dog up so I could clock in at a decent time, which meant so much. She kept my dog all day, took her on two walks, gave her play time, plenty of potty breaks, and sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. When I picked her up, my dog was SO happy and playing with the other dogs which is huge because she’s not always the best with other dogs. It was clear she felt comfortable, happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Chelsey for all your fur babies’ needs and will absolutely be using her services again in the future whenever possible!”


About: I’ve dog sat for my friends in this area on and off for years. I grew up on a ranch with animals and am comfortable with them. I have a 3 year old chocolate lab who absolutely loves friends to play with and has never had any issues with other dogs or people. I currently work part time, and have a lot of days with full flexibility. Most mornings after my kids go to school I’m free, and weekends or evenings my 12 year old and 8 year old love to walk with or play with dogs with me. My yard is fenced in, and my home is dog friendly. I’m happy to stay in clients homes as well if my schedule with my children allows. I don’t mind driving a bit to go to different neighborhoods for walking either.
“Charlotte had a great day with Lilli and her family! We are thinking she will be in the rotation now for my Charli girl. So many cute pics and I could tell she was loved. I was nervous since it was a first day. But Charlotte was tired when she came home so she must have been played and cuddled. We look forward to spending the week with Lilli and her pups!”


“We’ve booked Christina to care for our Scarlett while we’re away on vacation. She’s a nervous walker and I’m so grateful for Christina’s patience in working with her on walks.”

About: Hi! I’m your friendly neighborhood pet sitter—animal nerd, plant parent, and professional chaos manager 🌿🐾 From pocket-sized hamsters to majestic Great Danes, opinionated parrots to mysterious snakes, I love animals of every variety. Fur, feathers, or scales? I’m in. I approach pet care like a science and an art—learning routines, decoding body language, and adapting my care to match each pet’s unique personality (yes, even the dramatic ones). When I’m not hanging out with pets, I’m probably fussing over plants and making sure every living thing around me is thriving. Whether it’s following a color-coded care sheet, calming nervous pets, administering meds, or watering your beloved jungle, I’ve got it handled. You can head out knowing your pets (and plants!) are safe, spoiled, and genuinely cared for by someone who treats every home like a tiny ecosystem worth protecting. 🐈🌸🐶🐍🌱 Your furry, feathered, or scaly friends will be happy, safe, and well-loved while you're away! My wife and I recently made the move to Southern Pines from Florida and have been enjoying getting to know the community—especially its many pets! I believe good pet care starts with clear expectations, happy routines, and making sure every member of the household—furred, feathered, scaled, or leafy—feels safe and well looked after. I’m happy to offer pet sitting, house sitting, doggy daycare, and more. I have a large fenced backyard for safe playtime and live in a lovely, pet-friendly neighborhood, perfect for walks, adventures, or just soaking up some sun. Your furry, feathered, or scaly friends will be happy, safe, and well-loved while you’re away!
About: Hi, I’m Izzy – an educator and lifelong animal lover! I grew up with cats and dogs and now have two sweet, friendly pups of my own. I’ve worked at a dog grooming salon, cared for pets over school breaks, and love providing reliable care when pet parents need a helping hand. Whether your dog is a high-energy adventurer or a mellow homebody, I’ll adapt to their needs and give them all the love they deserve. I’m happy to provide references from other families I've worked with! I look forward to connecting soon. I work remotely as a teacher so I am available during the week and on weekends! I am happy to come to your house for drop in visits or walks. I also do offer doggy daycare in my home for one dog a day. I have two dogs of my own who love to have visitors. Your dog’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I’ve cared for dogs both in my home and in their own familiar space. I always follow your pet’s routine and preferences to make sure they feel secure. I have two friendly, crate-trained dogs who love making new friends, and my home is pet-safe and well set up for boarding or drop-ins. I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so you feel totally at ease!
“Jacki was amazing with my puppy! She is very flexible and accommodating. My puppy is not fully potty trained or crate trained yet and it was difficult to find someone to take him. Jacki was a lifesaver! She was the perfect fit for us. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Growing up I was around breeds such as Labradors, Cocker Spaniels, Chows, German Shepards, Poodles and Lhasa Apsos. The first time I became a dog mom was to Zoe, a Bichon Frise. I lived in Chicago at the time in an apartment so I had to walk her multiple times a day. Bichons also need a lot of maintenance with their fur, so I’m very familiar with grooming methods of that type of breed. After Zoe, I became a dog mom to a Pit Bull/German Shepherd puppy, Garner. I got him when he was 8 weeks old and had him for 13.5 years. I understand the level of care a puppy needs as well as a senior dog. I’m also very familiar with handling large breeds on a leash. I understand how a pet is part of the family and I will show your dog lots of love and affection, just like I would my own. I am available Monday-Friday 8am-2pm then from 6pm-8pm. I’m available 7am-10pm on Saturday and Sunday. Please contact me if you need help outside of those times and I can try to work with you. I’m not able to keep your dog in my home, but I will always make sure your dog is safe in your home. I will always follow your safety protocols.

“I left my 6 month old Vizsla with Lindy for my first time being away from her since I got her. She sent me pictures and videos everyday while I was gone which made it easier being away from my puppy. I would highly suggest her to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the area. My puppy came home extremely happy and sleepy which is great for me after a long trip!”

“If you love your dog and want someone who loves your dog as much as you do. Alexandra is that person. My dog had so much fun playing with all the dogs she has there. She has two of her own that are as sweet as can be. Her home is clean and beautiful, her back yard is big and fenced. She was very quick to respond to all my questions, she doesn't take mean dogs that are not a fit. I received many photos and videos during my dog's visit. I couldn't be happier to find Alexandra and will be using her services for as long as she continues to babysit my baby. I knew Alexandra was special because she enjoyed watching the dogs all play together as much as I did.”

“Heather is the best! She takes great care of Indy, and is a strong communicator. Indy loves being at her house and has a great time in her fenced in yard. 10000% reccomend”

“Lili loved our two pups like they were here own. They came home very happy and tired. Lili also sent us lots of pictures and updates every day. I would highly recommend her! Thank you so much again Lili ♥️”

“Annie is great with our 2 older dogs. Daily updates and photos showed us they are being taken care of with love and patience......they settled in nicely and Annie and her husband treat our dogs just as they do their own. We highly recommend Annie!”
“Mary was fantastic! I needed her last min for a long trip. My dogs can be a handful and Mary was extremely accommodating. She made my kids feel at home and she sent pics and updates that made my time away from them easier. My trip ended early and Mary offered to go above and beyond because of the circumstances. My kiddos came home tired and happy! Thank you!”
About: I became a dog mom at 19, and have been dog-sitting off and on ever since! While the extra income is always nice, I mainly do it to prevent coming home with a new puppy every week. I treat all the dogs I meet like they're my own and give them as much love as I do to my own babies - an 11 year old Lab mix and 6 year old German Shepherd! They both have loved every dog I've ever had staying at my house. I'm comfortable with all breeds and all ages, and have no problem giving medications if needed. I am available during the daytime for long walks and have a very flexible work schedule, which means a lot of play time for your pup! I’m currently working remote part-time and have the flexibility to choose my own hours, which means I have plenty of spare time during the day to spend with your pup! I treat your pets as if they are my own, giving them the same amount of love and attention if not more! I always make sure they are well cared for and that the client comes home to a clean house and happy pets!
“I needed a boarding for a couple of nights for my dog, Kinako, at the very last minute. Jessica and her family were very accommodating to my request. When we had a meet in the evening before, I had a faith and I knew they are the ones! Kinako immediately made herself comfortable at their home. Their dog is sweet and friendly. They made friends with each other right away. While I was away, it was great to see the update picture, and I felt at ease. When I picked Kinako up, I could tell that she had a wonderful time at their lovely home. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us. Kinako and I are looking forward to the next opportunities.”

“David took great care of my pup while I went out of town. He updated me with messages and pictures each day, which I really appreciated. My pup looked so happy and relaxed, clearly she had a great little vacation too! Highly recommend and would definitely book again.”

“Taylor did a great job with our Old English Bully. Our Luna is a high energy unique Bully and Taylor was able to keep up! Taylor has great communication and she is mindful about the dogs needs and behaviors. Luna had a great time and we were able to relax and enjoy our time away.”

“I cannot say enough great things about this dog sitting family! My two dogs absolutely adored their two kiddos! They enjoyed playing outside with the family's dog, Yogi. Even Rowen, who usually prefers staying inside, joined in on the fun and had a wonderful time.🤗 I felt at ease the whole time I was out of town because they kept me updated and sent pictures. 10/10 would recommend 👌🏽”

“We have booked with Abriana twice now and had another great experience. I would recommend booking with Abriana for any boarding needs. She is attentive to our pets and gives daily, and as needed, updates about our pets. ”

“This was my first experience with Rover. Alex and his 2 sons were great with my dogs. Alex and his 2 dogs have a calm presence which is great for my excitable dogs. I received many consistent texts, photos and videos to let me know how they were doing. Alex was flexible with the drop off and pick up which I really appreciated.”

“Nathan and Courtney are good people who opened their home to our beloved dog, and also to us when we paid them a visit. Excellent almost daily communication with pictures were provided. Penny was taken on daily walks, and also entertained by their gentle kitties, dog and other barnyard pets! She was calm and happy when we picked her up.”

About: My background spans everything from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. I do not just monitor pets, I actively engage them. I focus on positive reinforcement, structure, and maintaining your exact home routine. Owners trust me because I treat their pets like my own. You will receive consistent updates, clear communication, and total peace of mind while you are away. Because I work from home, your pet receives my full attention. My flexible routine ensures consistent neighborhood walks, frequent potty breaks, and dedicated companionship all day long. Whether you need overnight boarding, interactive playdates, daily walking, or quick potty breaks, I easily accommodate your schedule. I offer a safe home environment with one friendly dog for constant companionship. Our routine includes daily leashed neighborhood walks and optional off-leash socialization trips to Martin Dog Park. I also provide secure crating at night for a safe, restful sleep.
