Highly-rated overnight sitters - Arno
“Our beagle, Lady, stayed with Michelle for 12 nights during the Thanksgiving holiday. During Lady’s stay Michelle sent texts, pictures and videos to let me know how she was doing. I never worried about our sweet dog because I knew she was being well taken care of. Michelle was very accommodating for drop off and pick up times. When I came to pick up Lady her bed, food and leash were organized and ready to load in my car. I highly recommend hiring Michelle to take care of your dog!”
“Absolutely phenomenal! Our puppy was so excited and happy! Slowly introduced other dogs and let them become friends. It was our puppy’s first experience away from home and he absolutely had a blast. 10/10!”
“Matt and Candice have taken care of Lily several times. Very nice people and the kids seem to love having Lily stay with them. Candice always sends us pictures of Lily. She looks very happy. Thank you Candice and Matt!”
“Axel had a great time and was sleepy as soon as we got back. We can tell he was comfortable and really enjoyed staying with Jamie’s family as well as playing with the other dogs. We will definitely be booking again when we are in town.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Amber & Lavar! I’ve never used this app and this is my first dog so I was hesitant as I’ve only ever left my dog at a kennel. I really wanted him to stay somewhere where I knew he’d get some love and attention. Amber & Lavar made me feel so at ease and comfortable at the meet & greet. My dog took an instant liking to both of them and I knew he was in good hands. I was out of the country and they were so great about sending me updates and photos. They were also extremely kind and accommodating when I had flight delays on my travels home. Their home is lovely with open space and a wonderful back yard for a dog. I would highly recommend them and I will for sure be using them again.”
“This was our puppies first time staying overnight withMelissa. She was there three nights. Everything went well. Melissa was great as usual and sent us pictures and video of Maya while we were away. So grateful to have found her. Highly recommend!”
“Bo had an absolutely wonderful time with Sherri. She sent daily updates, pictures, and gave him lots of love and attention while he was there. Highly recommend using Sherri- Bo can’t wait to go back in the future!”
“Kaitlin was fantastic. She picked the girls up and dropped them off for me! She sent pics and kept me updated. Great communications and absolutely will use again!”
“Jennifer and Michael were absolutely incredible with my pup! I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such experienced and loving hands. Jennifer’s background caring for animals really shows and she made sure he received his allergy medication exactly as needed. They kept me updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind. Arson had an absolute blast at their home. He got to play with the other dogs and was loved on. He was treated like part of the family and made himself right at home. My pup came home completely exhausted from all the fun! I’m so grateful for the care they gave him and 100% will be using Jennifer and Michael again. I couldn’t recommend them enough!”
“Dear, Isabella, thank you very much for your exceptional care of Timothy. From the day one it was clear reflection of your great experience and love for furry kids. We are grateful for regularly sending us a picture of Timothy and thus keep our connection with him. Every picture expressed his enjoyable presence at your home. Also, it was an awesome experience for Timothy as well. He learned to communicate with your young family member and your pets and found himself happy. Another thing I would like to mention, that how understandable, Thank you very much. We definitely will use your service again, dear Isabella. ♥️♥️♥️”
“Oh, my goodness - I couldn't have been more pleased! From the initial messaging, meeting the sweet family, getting photos and updates, to the incredible pick-up... this family is the best! I had only boarded our pup one other time, and she was returned smelly and scared. Sarah's family treated our pup as their own, 100%. If she's available, I will choose her every single time we need care for our dog. I kind of think our pup misses her family and all of the fun they had over the Christmas holiday!”
“Adrienne was amazing! She was fully engaged in communication when asked about our Brooks Ryan! She was kind and loving and we will definitely use her again when the time comes we need a sitter.”

“Jenae always takes well care of my babies. I never have to worry when they are with her. It is like leaving him with a long lost friend or family member. They thrive while I’m gone. A+”
“Marcus was the perfect choice for keeping our senior dog. He was so attentive. He cared for Rex like he would his own dog. He sends pictures and updates frequently. When issues arose, Marcus reached out immediately and asked for guidance and offered assistance. I was able to fully relax and enjoy our family trip knowing that Marcus was keeping Rex exercised, fed and cuddled.”

It was a relief being able to relax and enjoy vacation knowing our fur babies were in good hands! Also her communication far exceeded any expectation we had. Definite 5 stars for Kelly-Marie G!”

“Christy was amazing!! I was nervous to leave Batman for a full week, but she did an amazing job keeping me updated with plenty of pictures and videos.

I cannot recommend her enough!”

“Brianne is so amazing and reliable! She took such great care of my two girls while I was gone and kept me updated with plenty of pics/notes. Brianne saved me when I got stuck in another country due to the air traffic ban and ended up needing pet care for a few extra days. I could tell my kitties really loved her—even my older, much more selective cat! Brianne definitely went above and beyond. I will definitely be reaching out to her again next time I need a sitter!”

“Alishia is a great neighbor and dog sitter! I highly recommend. She was communicative the whole trip and made sure my dog was fed, had time to potty, and even some cuddles. I felt my dog and home was safe with her visiting when I needed her. Even when my dog fell sick, she went the extra mile to keep me posted and checking on her. I’m glad she is local to Chapel Hill and will be using her services again.”
“Lila was fantastic! My cats are normally shy and scared of strangers, but she got them to come and play! She is practically a cat whisperer. Will be rebooking her for my next trip.”
“Madison exceeded all expectations! Our regular pet sitter had an unexpected emergency right before we left on a two week trip, the longest we’ve ever been away from our two fur babies. Needless to say we were devastated and left scrambling to find a reliable and trustworthy substitution. Madison did a meet and greet beforehand to explain her qualifications, answered any questions we had, and made sure to thoroughly understand the expectations of what we needed done to ensure peace of mind for us. She provided extensive details for us everyday and sent cute pictures of our animals so we could get a glimpse of how they were faring while we were away. She really takes the time to get to know the animals and it is reflected in her outstanding work ethic how much she truly cares. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone needing a sitter.

About: I've taken care of cats and kittens my entire life! Recently having rescued 2 one day old kittens and bottle fed them into healthy, sweet adult cats. I have had older cats with medication needs, and all kinds in between with all different personalities! My kids also love animals and love to help when the animals are kid friendly.

About: Hello! I’m Beckah, and I’m so excited to meet you and your best friend(s)! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve had dogs my whole life and have had the privilege of caring for them through every stage, with a particularly soft spot for senior dogs and the extra patience, compassion, and care they deserve. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel safe and at ease while they’re in my care. I’m happy to tailor their care to whatever makes them happiest; whether that’s checking in throughout the day, spending time playing and giving plenty of pets, or taking long walks (leisurely or otherwise!) where we can stop to smell every flower along the way. “Going out for sniffs” is what we called it with my best friend and soul dog, Rylee, who was by my side for 17 years. Every pet is different, and I’m happy to meet them where they are and give them the kindness and love they deserve. Thank you for trusting me with your four-legged family member. I promise to care for them like they’re my own. I have plenty of flexibility and am happy to work around yours and your pets schedule! For walks, I prefer to get an earlier start so as to protect them and their paws from the heat, but with temperatures finally starting to come down, we can hopefully start to do mid-day walks again soon! I believe every pet deserves to be cared for with patience, kindness, and respect. When caring for your pet I’ll take the time to understand their routine, personality, and individual needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll be mindful of keeping things clean and tidy, following your instructions, and making sure your pet’s normal routine is maintained as much as possible. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident knowing they’re in good hands.

I'd definitely recommend Jackie and plan to book again in the future.”

Available for services with that in mind! I need at least a week for new clients to schedule a meet & greet!

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember — growing up, my family had dogs, turtles, birds, rabbits, and lizards, so I'm just as comfortable with cats and small pets as I am with dogs. I also attended a high school built around animal care, giving me formal training on top of a lifetime of hands-on experience. On top of that, I'm a college graduate, which taught me the same things animal care requires: personal responsibility, patience, and attention to detail. I treat every pet like it's my own: same routine, same patience, same attention to detail every single visit. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I have a flexible schedule with steady availability throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and extended stays. I always confirm exact timing with you directly so visits fit your pet's normal routine. Since all my visits happen at your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I'd want for my own, securing doors and alarms exactly as instructed, keeping to the routine you've laid out, and never deviating from your pet's normal environment.

About: Hi! I’m a high school teacher who teaches culinary arts. At home, I have a golden retriever, Saffron and a Labradoodle, Leo. I live on 2 1/2 acres, one of which is fenced in and perfect for furry friends to run and play! I am a teacher and gone from 7 am to 3:30 pm, but my parents live next door and watch my animals when I am away. Growing up, my brother had a service dog who was part Great Dane and part Black Lab. He became part of the family! I think that’s what started my love for animals. Since college, I’ve had at least one pet. While in Culinary school, I worked long hours. For Christmas, I got my cat, Basil. She was at the door with a “meow” at the end of long days in the kitchen. When I began my career as a culinary teacher, I bought my first house with a back yard and almost immediately added my girls, Sage and Sketch to the household! I work full time as a high school teacher. but live next door to my parents who watch over my pets. They love them as if they were their own! I have an acre, fenced in back yard. My dogs love the country, running and playing in the back yard! They are house dogs, but love the chance to run as much as possible.

There are always animals around the farm to feed, water, brush and enjoy playing with for everyone! My family, along with my 8 and 10 year old kids, have helped take care of many friends dogs, cats and chickens when they are out of town and we would love to help you out as well. We understand how hard it is to leave your fur babies and worry about them while you are trying to enjoy vacation with your friends and family or trying to concentrate at work. We have had dogs and cats from the time they were puppies and kittens until they lived to be 16 years old. I currently take care of all the animals on the farm, with a little help from the kids! Plus, my partner has worked as a vet tech and trained both dogs and horses, working with and around animals for 25 years! Your sweet fur baby will be in great hands with us! After finishing remodeling our house and with both kids in school, I have lots of time during your workdays to help with all your fur babies! And during the summer, the kids love to help me with all the animals! I love caring for and loving all animals! I would love to come hang out, walk, feed, brush, play and check in on them during the work day! I love having a flexible schedule to be able to help with your sweet animals while still being able to pick up my children from school and attend their activities. They also love all animals and may come with me to help take care of them when it is safe and the opportunity allows!

“Our beagle, Lady, stayed with Michelle for 12 nights during the Thanksgiving holiday. During Lady’s stay Michelle sent texts, pictures and videos to let me know how she was doing. I never worried about our sweet dog because I knew she was being well taken care of. Michelle was very accommodating for drop off and pick up times. When I came to pick up Lady her bed, food and leash were organized and ready to load in my car. I highly recommend hiring Michelle to take care of your dog!”
“Tifaney and her family took great care of our dog Maggie last week. This was our first time leaving her with anyone else and all the photo updates showed she had a great time. We will use her again!”
About: I have been caring for all types of animals since I was a small child. I love animals and have a standard poodle of my own, I groom him myself. I have experience with older animals and young pups. If your pup gets read a book and belly rubs every night, I’m your girl! I am happy to accommodate any level of care for your fur babies. I currently work from home. I am able to give your fur babies anything they need, like daily walks in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Playtime is a must! I also specialize in couch snuggles. I live on a 30 acre farm. It is not fully fenced in but, there is plenty of room to roam safely. I can also keep your fur baby on leash and supervised at all times. I am able to offer in home visits as well so your babies can stay in a familiar place while they are missing you.

“Katie is wonderful! I was so worried about leaving my animals since I’ve never gone out of town without them! She was extremely flexible and took amazing care of my pups. I won’t book with anyone else on rover. Thank you again Katie!!!”
“Kaitlin was fantastic. She picked the girls up and dropped them off for me! She sent pics and kept me updated. Great communications and absolutely will use again!”
“Jennifer and Michael were absolutely incredible with my pup! I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such experienced and loving hands. Jennifer’s background caring for animals really shows and she made sure he received his allergy medication exactly as needed. They kept me updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind. Arson had an absolute blast at their home. He got to play with the other dogs and was loved on. He was treated like part of the family and made himself right at home. My pup came home completely exhausted from all the fun! I’m so grateful for the care they gave him and 100% will be using Jennifer and Michael again. I couldn’t recommend them enough!”
“Dear, Isabella, thank you very much for your exceptional care of Timothy. From the day one it was clear reflection of your great experience and love for furry kids. We are grateful for regularly sending us a picture of Timothy and thus keep our connection with him. Every picture expressed his enjoyable presence at your home. Also, it was an awesome experience for Timothy as well. He learned to communicate with your young family member and your pets and found himself happy. Another thing I would like to mention, that how understandable, Thank you very much. We definitely will use your service again, dear Isabella. ♥️♥️♥️”
