“We are always pleased with Belle’s care when she stays with James and his family! She has plenty of room to run around and play and they send lots of pictures, which we love! We highly recommend them!”
“Kaitlyn was fabulous! She sent multiple pictures daily with notes on the various activities with our dog, Abby. The stay was 8 days and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Abby was having a great time! We will be returning to Kaitlyn to care for Abby in the future!!”
“Lacie is amazing! Our 2 year old Cockapoo Otis has been going to her house for the past 3+ months for both day care and overnight visits. Lacie is kind and very intuitive with animals. She provided Otis with a wonderful home environment while we were away. He absolutely loves playing with her son and her own friendly pets. Thank you Lacie for all the wonderful care you gave our pup!”
“Caitlin was an amazing sitter for my little Bean. It was my first time having a sitter for my dog. By day two of day care, Bean was as excited to see her as she was to come home at the end of the day. She sent pics and gave me peace of mind. I’m so grateful I found her.”
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Sharon is a loving and considerate companion that kept our elderly dog Kuma happy and healthy while we were away. Her wonderful attention to his daily needs was outstanding. Kuma enjoyed every minute of the warm and loving care Sharon gave to him everyday. The pictures and videos showed how he loved Sharon and how happy he was. Sharon would be an excellent pet sitter for your pets and we would highly recommend her services.”
“Alexis is great. Our rescue dog has some anxiety issues but Alexis was very understanding, flexible, and communicative. As a bonus, her dog Addy seems to have the right energy to put our nervous dog a bit more at ease. I would certainly recommend her, I know we will be booking with Alexis again :).”
“Autumn was awesome with our puppy chase. She kept us updated with pictures, what he ate and if he went potty. He came home totally happy and tired. Will use her again when we come up to North Carolina. ♥️”
“Thank you for being such good care takers! Ann and Jaren always do such a fantastic job at keeping me updated with lots of photos of Lottie while I am out of town. Can’t explain how much that means when away from home. Thank you for taking such good care of her, always! -Anna”
“My 2 little papillons came home from an overnight stint with Deborah so happy and healthy. Deborah will be my go-to sitter from now on. She stayed in touch and I felt confident knowing they were in good hands. This was an xlnt experience in every way.”
“Ashley did an amazing job with our two dogs!! They were so happy to be with her!! They were extremely well taken care of!! Thank you so much and we would love to use her services again!!”
“Maria was so sweet and made me feel so comfortable leaving my sweet Joey overnight. Great communication and updates with photos throughout his stay. I would recommend Maria to care for your best friends and will definitely be back! Joey can be a handful and Maria made me feel that he was so welcome! Thank you!!”
“Carlina was fantastic with Coco! She kept us updated throughout the stay with lots of pictures and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. Coco got along so well with Carlina's dog and seemed to have a wonderful time. Carlina gave her plenty of snuggles, treats, and attention, and it was clear that Coco was very well cared for. We could tell she was happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. We would absolutely book with Carlina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! 🐾❤️”
“Adaira was fantastic, and I’m certain Meatball had a wonderful time! The photos were amazing, and the daily communication was excellent. I’d definitely see if Adaira was available if Meatball needs a place to stay next time!”
“Diane took care of our Seamus while on vacation for a week and she did an amazing job! She sent several photos of him throughout the week which was nice to see him happy. He looked healthier when we picked him up then when we left which was probably due to the many walks they went on. We will definitely be booking her again the next time we need our fur baby watched!”

“Rebekkah did drop by visits for my two cats while I was out of town and was great! She was responsive, caring and took care of all their needs. I would definitely book Rebekkah again and would highly recommend her.”
“Louise took great care of my kitties! She came each day, gave them outside time on the deck, and left my kitchen spotless. She rinsed the food tins out and put them in the recycling. She also found my broom and swept around the litter boxes. I didn't expect either of these, and I appreciated the extra effort. I had peace of mind as I traveled, knowing she was visiting them daily, giving them pets and love.”
“Debbie goes absolutely above and beyond. She is highly available, reliable, communicative, and professional. Debbie clearly cares deeply for animals, but she also took great care of our home while we were out of town. Thank you for all you do, Debbie! Debbie!”
“I ended up needing a short-notice, “panic” cat check-in option from Rover before a 10-day trip. Lillie responded and communicated promptly. Her response saved my trip, She did a pre-trip visit to check out my 5 fuzzies, then dealt well with them for several food and water refill and social interaction visits. When I need cat sitting services again, I will be going back to Lillie.”
“Ashlee was absolutely wonderful. The notes and photos sent were great. I was able to enjoy my entire vacation knowing she was stopping by checking on my cat. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been around all kinds of animals since I was a young child, but started professionally working in the animal industry as young as 14. I worked in an animal rescue facility, caring for the felines. Since then I have worked in a pet grooming salon, and still currently do. I have owned my own pets 100% of my life and currently have three fluffy friends of my own. I have also taken care of my current employers’ pets while they have been out of town on multiple occasions. I’m currently employed full-time, Tuesday thru Saturday 9-5pm. I am available to sit or walk pups Saturdays after 7pm, Sundays anytime, and Mondays anytime. I can also do various times during the week. I can do overnights throughout the week (location depending) and morning walks before work, again, location depending. I will gladly do whatever your pet is used to, and keep them as close to their routine as possible without having you home! I am also well versed in giving medications, so if that’s something your pet needs I’m more than able to oblige.
“A few days before I was supposed to go up north to visit an old friend I began looking for a sitter on Rover.com. Not having used an online service before I didn't realize that I was trying to book at the "last minute." Johnna and Samuel graciously agreed to watch Gabi, my cat, with drop-in visits. Each day, true to their word, they sent me a photo and a written update of how Gabi was doing. I will unequivocally recommend Johanna and Samuel for their high level of care.”
About: I have been around all types of animals and pets my whole life. I don't mind taking care of any type of pet you may have from babys to seniors, cats of all breeds and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’m also good with taking care of other domestic pets, exotic pets and farm animals. I only work part time so I have a lot of extra time to care for animals and enjoy being outdoors walking, biking and hiking. I can also just enjoy sitting on the porch with a cat in my lap and a dog at my feet. I’m not doing in home or boarding at this time and may offer to stay at your house with your pet in the future
“It has been such a pleasure getting to know Brinkley and having her watch my pets. She's an awesome, positive, and very responsible caregiver and I highly recommend her! Thank you Brinkley for going above and beyond to care for my home and animals.”
About: I am an avid animal lover who has two dogs, a cat, and seven reptiles. I love each of my pets and care for them in their own specialized ways so I know how rare it is to find someone who will care for your pet as their own. Look no further! I would love to hear about your pet care needs
About: I have absolutely loved cats my entire life, as a kid I wanted to learn all there was about cats. Sadly I was never allowed to have cats indoors until I moved out. I now have a wonder cat named Lampshade who we adopted in 2023. I cared for cats when I worked at a kennel
About: Feline friends and family need a special person who truly understands their unique moods and needs. Some cats love affection and snuggles, while others prefer their space — and that’s okay. I’ll be there to provide whatever care your cats require, whether it’s a gentle presence nearby or interactive play when they’re feeling energetic. From daily feeding and litter box maintenance to companionship and peace of mind, I treat your cats with patience, love, and understanding. Whether you’re gone for a weekend or a vacation, you can rest assured your furry friends are in reliable, experienced hands.
“Morgan was extremely attentive to my 2 kittens, mature cat, and senior chihuahua. He reached out multiple times with questions, and took the time to get to know them in advance. I felt comfortable and at ease knowing he was coming by once a day to supplement the adolescent I also hired for pet care during my extended trip. Highly recommend!”
About: I've never owned a cat of my own as my entire family, except me, was allergic. Since 6th grade, my bestfriend has had a cat and I love her!! I've loved cats since and newly adopted one of my own. Also a plus, I do not have a sense of smell! So I have no problem cleaning up any mess, litter box, or if your cats a little smelly like mine :))).

About: I absolutely love animals, and have had all kinds of pets my entire life. I’ve gained lots of experience with dogs, cats, rodents, birds, reptiles and fish. I had my last dog, Raya for 8 years. I don’t think I’ll be able to get another pet for a long time, so for now I’m very happy taking care of yours as my own. Along with regular dog walking, I also offer overnight housesitting/ extended stays. I’d be happy to provide references from over the years upon request (: My schedule is very flexible, just give me a few days notice if you're looking for overnight care. I'm also available for dogs walks daily! I currently provide drop in, and overnight services in clients homes. And I am committed to not only making your dog feel safe and comfortable, but also providing a fun, enriching environment for them. I have experience with dogs of all temperaments, ages and breeds.
About: I've had dogs my whole life and currently have 4 very happy snoops from small to large. I'd love to walk, hike and/or run your dogs to keep them happy.I've cared for puppies and senior dogs and am comfortable with both. Pet care is easy for me since I don't have a regular work schedule. I retired as a Navy contractor and competitive triathlete. I can walk them, let them out and feed them early morning and late evening. We have a large fenced in dog yard and can bring your best friends to our house to run in a safe area, this is especially nice for dogs that don't do well around other dogs.
“Amanda took great care of Benji and Stella! They had a blast playing with Cleo. They were happy and tired when we picked them up. Amanda is a natural with dogs--I would definitely recommend boarding your dog(s) with her when you are in the Smokies and want to do a long hike, because the park does not allow dogs.”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I am a trustworthy retired RN who is looking to spoil your dogs while you are away. I am a non-smoker and very active with walking/hikes and pickleball. I am retired now for 5 years and spend my day actively with hike/bikes/pickleball to name a few activities. I am available most days with proper notice. I do not have a fenced yard but do have a 7-year-old dog named Dori who gets her exercise walking daily. If you pup likes fenced in yards caring for your dog would be better at your home.
About: I love all animals and taking care of them is a dream job. I live in the Franklin NC area year around. I was raised with Boxers and have been a dog momma for 10 rescues. I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.
“Lacie was absolutely wonderful to our Cockapoo, Biscuit. We did day care in her home and she has a house perfectly suited to having animals and a huge fenced yard. She clearly loves animals and I’m so glad I found her. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Wow, Elizabeth has been Amazing! We have not had a better experience with sitters for Chip. Elizabeth and her family are so welcoming and accommodating of our schedule while in NC on vacation. If dogs could talk I’m sure Chip would share the same sentiments. It is always a great comfort to know your dog is well looked after when you are away from home and they can’t be with you.”
“Meagan was great and our pups were well taken care of! She worked with us on flexible drop off and pick up times due to the event we were attending. We highly recommend Meagan for your pet needs. Thanks!!”

“Louise is obviously a dog person. I appreciated having a meet and greet before hand. My pup felt immediately comfortable with her and so did I. Louise showed up when she said she would, took time for walks and play and my pup and home were in great shape when i got home. I will definitely use her again when in area.”
“Our dog took to Ashlee like she was family. She was always there when she planned to be and the communication was excellent. We are so grateful for her professional approach and hometown kindness. Well done!”
About: As I partner with pet parents, I look forward to welcoming and honoring each pet's spirit and unique needs. Growing up with animals taught me how to truly listen to these sacred beings and notice the subtle ways they communicate. I can promise that I will show up for every animal trusted in my care the way I'd want someone to show up for mine: with patience, presence, and a whole lot of love. I am an artist with the ability to easily move my schedule around. I look forward to walking, boarding, and supporting pet parents with any care needs that arise. I have a fenced in yard and a clean, quiet home. When caring for dogs, I look for opportunities to engage in play as often as possible both to bond with your fur baby and to ensure they are having fun!
“This was our first time using Rover. It has exceeded our expectations! We would highly recommend to anyone! Alexis was punctual and perfect, with outstanding communication throughout!”
“Lillie has been great working with our new dog Archie. She is very patient and gives great updates, which is very helpful when trying to figure out what behaviors we need to work on with him.”
About: Growing up, I had always been very involved in the care of our family pets which made my love for all animals so strong from a young age. I have two dogs, a cat, and 7 reptiles:) I have watched pets on many occasions for my family, the families I nannied for, family friends, and clients from Rover. I understand that each fur baby has their own personality and I am always respectful of their boundaries and excited to get along and play!! I am comfortable with any size, age, and type of pet. Happy to talk about a flat rate and can be very flexible! My current schedule, I have classes Monday, Wednesday, & Friday 8am-11am; Tuesday and Thursday 8:30-11:30. I would love to find a regular client whom I can dog walk/sit for on a regular basis but I am also interested in any short term dog care requests that you may have or overnights if comfortable with my schedule. I’m great at following instructions and will take care of your pup as if they were my own! I understand that each pet is different and will cater to the needs of each of your pets.

“Ashley had been absolutely incredible with my baby! She has been great about checking in and taking really nice photos of Kaiya. She really goes the extra mile to make sure she is well taken care of and you can tell she truly has a love for your pup.”
About: I have been dog training for the past 5 years slowly growing my business. I love taking care of animals as it is my passion! Message me to learn more about me and my experience! My typical schedule is 8:30-4:30 with most of my availability in the mornings and evenings! This is the most accurate schedule for the 2026 year. I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a nice neighborhood where I can take your dog for plenty of walks and exercise.
About: I have owned dogs my entire life with many cats in between. I have had the pleasure of sitting dogs and cats all over the country, including house sits in California, Oregon, Washington, and now North Carolina. I have experience with young puppies, as well as elderly dogs with a plethora of health problems; I also have experience with big dogs like German shepherds, Australian shepherds, and Rottweilers, to teacup Pomeranians, spitz, and many more. I have been told I’m very high energy and fun, and the animals I have looked after always seem to pick up on that great energy and can’t wait to hang out. :) I sell vintage clothing, so being self employed allows me to better accommodate to all the needs of the animals. In our own home, our dog Endo is the King. He gets to enjoy long daily walks amidst the beauty of DuPont forest, swims in the lake behind our house, and nightly fresh cooked meals. My services on house sits include obviously feeding and general care of the animals, as well as promptly following specific dietary regimens and health requirements of every animal. I have cared for very old dogs that needed assistance in bowel movements as well as simple motivation for stubborn dogs that don’t like to walk. I have also looked after countless plants and hot tubs, ensuring proper watering and chlorination.
About: Let me begin by saying my prices are very negotiable! Just ask!! There has never been a point in my life that I haven't had a pet! I have 2 dogs here at home, and a cat now back at my apartment!! I love animals and as much as I love mine, i always love to meet as many as I can:) I am a student, and anytime I am not at my classes, I'll have available time to care! With that being said, I am very flexible when it comes to prices!! Just ask! I am mostly always available and can work around both of our schedules when needed! I pay great attention to detail and set alarms if pets are time depended on dinner or medications. I am always on time, and I don't mind if you want me to stay a little longer to keep your pet company! Any special requests, just ask:). I am very flexible!
