“Amanda was the best dog sitter we could have asked for. We especially appreciated the updates and pictures she sent us, which made us feel at ease and happy. She has a beautiful home with plenty of room and backyard space, and our dogs felt right at home with her:-) This is our first experience with Rover, and feel super confident that if all sitters are half as wonderful as Amanda, we’ll be using this service more often! Thanks so much for taking care of our babies while we hiked around Mt Rainier!!:-)”
“Jamie is always so well cared for at Joanna's. Jamie is a little prima-ballerina... as can be seen in the pictures Joanna sends us of the happy princess dancing. Joanna is so patient with Jamie's idiosyncrasies (she uses her own cat litter box and is a picky eater - raised by a cat). Jamie is thrilled to see us when we come home, but we know that she has a great time when she is there. Highly recommend.”
“Oksana was wonderful. She kept my fur baby in her home for 4 nights and five days while we were on vacation. She made sure to update me daily with pictures, videos and letters. I will definitely be using her again.”
“My dog Luna seemed to thoroughly enjoy her stay with Violette and her family! Violette sent me lots of pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. She was super kind throughout all of our communications, and very understanding when I had traveling delays. Luna was kept clean, fed, and well cared for. I would absolutely book Violette again, and would recommend anyone else to. She genuinely seems like a warm-hearted, good-spirited person!”
“Gary and Becky took great care of my special needs (epileptic) dog in their home for 4 nights. They administered medication, followed my detailed care instructions and helped to make him feel at home! They were quick to communicate and sent lots of photos. I will definitely be contacting them next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Teresa is so pleasant. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our doggy was in good hands. I was happy to see the huge yard that the dogs could run and play. Definitely a 5 star sitter.”
About: I’m a professional dog trainer with years of veterinary medicine experience and a bachelor’s degree in Animal Health and Behavior. I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages, temperaments, and behavioral needs. Caring for animals is already a major part of my everyday life, so adding another dog to my routine fits naturally into my schedule. I live on a farm and care for multiple animals daily, including dogs, horses, poultry, and other farm animals. My days are already structured around feeding, watering, exercise, cleaning, training, enrichment, medication when needed, and monitoring the health and behavior of the animals in my care. As a professional dog trainer, I also understand that dogs need more than food and potty breaks. Dogs staying with me receive plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, enrichment, rest, and individual attention based on their age, personality, energy level, and normal routine. I am accustomed to planning my schedule around animals and making sure their needs are consistently met throughout the day. Safety is one of my highest priorities when caring for someone else’s dog. I am a professional dog trainer with years of veterinary medicine experience and a bachelor’s degree in Animal Health and Behavior. This background allows me to recognize changes in behavior, body language, stress levels, and physical condition that might otherwise be overlooked. Dogs in my care are supervised and managed according to their individual temperament, training, and needs. I do not assume that every dog should interact with every other animal simply because they are staying in the same home. Dogs can be safely separated, crated, rotated, or given individual play and exercise time when appropriate. Because I live on a farm, I take additional precautions when dogs are outside. Every boarding dog wears a GPS tracking collar whenever they are outside of their secure kennel area, providing an additional layer of safety and security. Dogs are never given unnecessary freedom simply because they are staying in a rural environment. My goal is to provide a structured, safe, and enjoyable environment where owners can feel confident that their dog is receiving knowledgeable, individualized care while they are away.
About: I've owned and been around dogs my whole life, as well as chickens, hamsters, rats, etc(which I am also open to caring for your exotics). I currently have a 3 you golden doodle and a 9 month old boxer and a 12 yo cat as well as children which I feel gives me a superior ability to care for living things. I'm a stay at home parent so I have a large availability to watch your pets in my home as well as do drop in visits for you. We have two inside dogs who are fairly well trained and stay in our fenced in yard when they're out to potty and have plenty of space to run around.
About: Hi! I’m a huge dog lover with dogs of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I offer dog sitting in my safe and welcoming home in Oxford, NC, where your pup will get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and exercise. Whether your dog loves to run around, play fetch, or just relax and cuddle, I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for like family. I also send lots of pictures and updates so you can feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Creating a fun, clean, and safe environment for every pet is my top priority, and I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and companionship throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods. I’m able to accommodate pets close to my area easily and make their care a priority while keeping a consistent, calm, and loving environment. Providing a safe environment for pets is very important to me. I have a large yard where dogs can run, play, and get plenty of exercise while always being supervised and monitored closely. Inside my home, I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, personality, and routines to make sure they stay happy, safe, and well cared for at all times.

“Ashley is so wonderful! She gives great daily updates and pictures from her drop ins, plays with the animals, and you can tell she loves what she does! 5/5 stars! We will definitely have her come again, and I highly recommend her!”
“What an absolutely amazing experience. My cat was care for, loved on, and I received so many wonderful pictures. I’m always nervous to leave her since she has separation anxiety but she was calm and happy when I got home like I was never gone! Will definitely be using them as my pet sitter from here on out!!”
About: I have had cat family members my entire adult life. I have cared for friends pets as favors and now that I am retired I have time to care for other’s pets daily. I have a diabetic cat of my own, so I am experienced in administering shots.
“Raeann was great! She took great care of my two cats while I was away for a long weekend. Sent pics and updates, gave one of my boys his injectable medication each day, and gave them some extra loving on top of it too! Even vacuumed before I got home! It was wonderful peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of and would definitely book again!”
About: I've been fortunate to have feline companions throughout my life. Cats seem to naturally gravitate towards me, and I thoroughly enjoy caring for them, whether it's meticulously cleaning their litter boxes or indulging them with daily grooming sessions. From nail trims to soothing baths, I'm adept at handling all their needs with care and attention.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Nicholas provided for my cat, Jack! He was absolutely wonderful from start to finish, and most importantly, Jack absolutely LOVES him. 🥹❤️ It's clear that he genuinely cared about Jack and took the time to make him feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I received wonderful updates and pictures while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I came home to a happy, relaxed, and very well-cared-for cat, and I couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you, Nicholas!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 11 years old and I absolutely love meeting new people! My friends and family always refers me as the “crazy cat lady” because I have 3 cats of my own! Currently have flexible and open availability for your pet sitting needs! Send me a message and I can help! Please let me know at least 2 days ahead of time if you need to make any last minute changes! I make sure if pets need to be leashed that it happens before going outside or leaving the house! I also always clean up after each animal to ensure cleanliness in the neighborhood!
“Nicole has been great and took pictures to send to me while I was out of town. Ad anxious as I was, it was a relief to see that my cat was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend using her services in the future!”
About: I’ve had/been around many different types of dogs my entire life. My family would always want me to come over and train/watch theirs animals for them like I was the go to person for anybody who got a new pet. I also use to volunteer at a boarding company to help feed/walk the dogs. I currently do doordash so I can pretty much fit any request in to my schedule. The most amount of time I would be away would probably be around 5-6 hours. I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who treats every pet like my own. I know how important routines are, so I make sure pets are fed on time, get plenty of attention, and feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I’m patient, responsible, and good at picking up on what each pet needs, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddles. I also like to keep owners updated so they can relax knowing their pet is happy and well taken care of.
About: What sets me apart is my deep passion for feline care and experience with special needs. I’m skilled in administering medications and have a knack for keeping litter boxes impeccably clean. Your cat will enjoy personalized attention, a tidy environment, and expert care!
About: I've always loved cats. I had cats growing up in New York, a house full of cats. My mother was allergic to cats so until she passed I wasn't able to have any cats of my own. But now we have two cats. I watch them when my family's out of town. I feed them breakfast and dinner. I play with them. I pet them. I love on them and most importantly I treat every cat with the upmost respect like they are little people.

“Was lucky enough to find a family who treated Lily as well as they did. Teresa was always available and when my schedule changed she was accommodating with last minute changes. Lots of outdoor play and she would send me updates throughout her stay. If I am ever in the area again I will 100% look her up to watch Lily.”
“We dropped our dog off for doggy daycare and got a great midday pic and update on how he was doing. He was wore out on the drive home and we really appreciate the care they gave him.”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. Dogs seem to take to me well. I’ve worked as a junior groomer for a few months and trained my own dog. Not professionally, but he listens and understands. I’ve always loved dogs and been an animal person! I have an almost 4 month old baby so I have been a SAHM. I love to work and would like to help my family more. This way I can be at home loving on my son and also your fur babies! We just moved into our forever home due to my husband being retired Navy. We got married in Hawaii where he was stationed and I grew up. Our neighborhood was military and I would watch peoples dogs, board, check ins, walks. I worked at a doggie daycare and became close with a client who would bring her dog over to me to watch instead. Also, became very close with some people in the neighborhood whom I’ve take care of their dogs and now can say are friends like family!

About: I have raised many different types of dogs for 15+ years. For the last 5 years, I have housed many different animals in need. I have trained puppies, as well as nervous, and abused dogs. I make sure my home is a very welcome environment for animals of all kinds. Like my husband likes to say, I want a petting zoo in life. I currently work part-time in a pawn shop and full time mom to an adorable little toddler. We love being able to be around and care for animals as much as we can. I go on holidays maybe once or twice a year so I’m always around willing to help train or even just be a companion to your furry friend while you’re away I have an open yard with plenty of space to run around. I also have crates within the house just in case they need to be crated too. I have 3 adult dogs that roam free and are very friendly, as well as 3 puppies, and a 2 cats inside my house as well too. But it’s very rare my cats will come out during the day if I’m housing a dog inside.

I am able to care for your pets with walks, playtime, companionship, and feeding. I love animals and will provide care and comfort in your home.
“This is our first time using Ashley to let our dog out in the middle of the day. She is fantastic! Our dog is weary of strangers and Ashley handled the situation really well- she went at his pace and spent some extra time with him. She sent a lot of photos and a detailed description of her time with Rowan. I would definitely use her again!”
