“Joanna is a caring and very knowledgeable professional. It is clear from the first minute that she has a real talent and heart for animals. She worked with our finicky little girl and lo and behold found a food she loves. Being an only dog, Jamie loved learning how to be part of a pack and also appreciated having a cat, like her pal at home, to be with. Joanna not only put up with our little diva's idiosyncrasies, she enjoyed them. We, and Jamie, look forward to having another "adventure" with Joanna.”
“With it being our first time using Rover, I could not be more pleased with our experience! Halle and Thomas were a breeze to work with. I really appreciated our phone call ahead of booking, and I could immediately tell Halle was so knowledgeable and loves dogs so much! She communicated with me each day that we were away with message updates and photos of our Diamond girl enjoying her stay! 10/10, no notes, looking forward to booking again! Thanks again Halle and Thomas!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care my two older dogs received! Amanda was attentive, reliable, and clearly loves animals. My dogs both require medications and she administered them with no issues. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Finn and Skye came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to know I have someone I can trust with my dog when I travel. Her children also were helpful and played with my dogs while in her care. They sent the dogs home with the cutest hand-drawn pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Lucy had a great time w the family and came home tired. David was quick to respond w any questions or if I just needed to check in. I will certainly try to book them again in the future. Thanks for taking such good care of my girl.”
“Rachel and her family took amazing care of my pup, the kids made my heart melt especially with how gentle and caring they were towards him! 10/10 recommend for sitting overnight ☺️”
“Scott was EXCELLENT! They made my dogs feel right at home and eased their separation anxiety. He was great at communicating with updates and pictures and was very flexible with us.”
“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.”
“This was our first time using this service and it truly exceeded my expectations. Tori & Zachari were truly wonderful. They were very thoughtful in scheduling a meet and greet with our two dogs to ensure everything would go smoothly during their stay. During the meet and greet they were very mindful of making it a relaxed experience for all and by the time I dropped my dogs off for the visit I could tell they would be in great hands. During their stay, Tori and Zachary were responsive, ensured to give updates, and continued to show how thoughtful they were with their care. We got plenty of pictures showing what an amazing time our doggies had. Our dogs looked happy and relaxed when we picked them up. We will be using Tori and Zachary again for sure!”
“Our Cattle Dog “Jackeroo” just spent a week with Mario & Sharee. He’s an active 11 month old, and needs lot of exercise. He had a really large fenced field to run around in, and was kept busy chasing balls and by taking long, 40 minute walks. We saw many pictures of him, so kept track of his activity. He was a happy pup when we picked him up yesterday. He does like most folks, and clearly liked Sharee a lot. He was relaxed and happy! Jack had a great vacation, and so did we! We are happy to have found Mario & Sharee, and definitely plan to have Jack stay with them on our next trip. We both highly recommend them! —Peter & Tatiana”
About: I have had dogs,cats, hamsters and rabbits my whole life. I care for them like family. I’m the go to pet sitter for family and friends. I work from home as a nurse. So it is very easy for me to fit your furry friend into the schedule. Hope to hear from you soon! I will abide by your rules for your pet and care for them as you would. I will be considerate of your space and the comfort of your pet.
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: Hi there! My name is Hayley and I have an extreme love and passion for ALL animals! Since I was a baby and got my first cat at 6 weeks old, I have grown up in a household full of animals with everything from cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, you name it, and those animals have taught me so much, enough that I want to give back to the local community and their animals! My specialties are with cats and dogs of any age, though if you have another animal in need of service, I am open to anything and ready to learn! Currently, I have two dogs (Jack Russells who are 2 and 8 yrs old) of my own that I have raised since they were both 8 weeks old. I have knowledge in feeding, medication management, daily exercise, enrichment activities such as tricks, routine care (bathing animals), hygiene maintenance, potty training, and as always, I strive to have strong, reliable communication with owners of your furry friends! I specialize in cats and dogs BUT if you are need of services for another animal, please dont hesitate to reach out as I am willing to help, learn whatever I need to, and give some extra love to your pet! AFTER August 10th, all services will be unavailable until December as I return to school outside of the area. Please do NOT book past August 10th. Thanks so much for understanding! ☺️ Mon-Sun: 8am-2:30pm (schedule varies but I will try my best to work something out with you!!) Meet and Greets: Scheduled meetings BEFORE desired sitting dates; I come to your home to get to know you, your fur babies, and the required schedule/rules. (I leave this up to the client's preference but I usually recommend it!) (CAN provide services before/after hours when requested!!) *AFTER August 10th, all services will be unavailable until December as I return to school outside of the area. Please do NOT book past August 10th.* Thanks so much for understanding! ☺️ As I previously mentioned, I have two dogs (both Jack Russells) of my own that are 2 and 8 years old. I strive to maintain a clean space and comfortable for my pets where they can relax and follow their usual routines with no worries. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide daily exercise and playtime, and ensure their safety by always supervising. They have designated rest areas (although I do allow animals on furniture), plenty of enrichment activities/toys, and lots of affection of course! I also have a large yard where my dogs love to run around and play with toys (when outside, they are always supervised) and a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks! I am always keeping my eyes on them, making sure they are healthy, eating/drinking, and exercising correctly. In a clients home is a bit different as this is not my personal space. I tend to follow the routine/schedule exactly as written and complete the usual duties such as feeding, walking, playtime, waste/litter cleanup, etc. I keep the home clean, ensure safety over the property and animals, and provide regular updates and photos to owners during each visit. I always double check and make sure all pets are comfortable, safe, and have everything they need in their space before I leave.

“Ohmygoodness, Gianina is 100% FANTASTIC! She is SO kind and has such a beautiful spirit. I knew she had a huge heart for animals when she smiled at Riley as soon as she laid eyes on him. She didn’t know that I noticed it. She is SO wonderful... I don’t have enough words. I highly recommend her for anyone who needs someone to watch their fur kiddo. She is a sweet soul and very, very caring and interested in taking care of pets. Riley whined all the way back home… I suspect it’s because he didn’t want to leave her. lol Thank you, Gianina!!! You’re an angel!”

“Ashley is incredible! She is so friendly and her communication was great. She took care of an injured animal while we were away and sent me updates and pics. This was our first time using a professional service for our kitties and we are so happy to have found someone we can count on! We will definitely use her again! About to book now for a future visit! :)”
“Alex provided amazing care above and beyond the original booking. Due to bad weather, our return home was delayed. Alex was available to take graciously take on an extra day. Additionally, there was storm damage to our house that Alex helped us manage long distance. You can trust you are in good hands with Alex!!!”
“Nicole continues to be such an attentive, communicative, and calming cat sitter for us. She's one of very very few people our sweet but very anxious little girl Marlow has opened up to and gotten comfortable with, and knowing she has a friend to take care of her when we're away is so, so wonderful.”
“Heidi was very professional and friendly. The cats took to her right away and got a lot of love and attention. All directions were followed and pictures were given with updates. Would book again!”
“Violet was a super prompt communicator and had no issues taking over on caring for our cat, Miso. She even traversed rough storm weather to check on her when we were out of the country. Would def book again!”
“Makayley did a great job. We could not have asked for better service. I think our puppy would go home with Makayley if she would let him. She sent us pictures every day with briefings on how our puppy was doing. He missed us for the first couple of days, but then he seemed to accept Makayley as his temporary master. I think we missed him more than he missed us!. Great job!”
“My cat, Charlie, is very shy and cautious. Nick has been super patient with getting him on his good side! Charlie has warmed up to him so much, especially with this last visit. I always get so many pictures and videos which is something any pet parent would appreciate!”
“Nicole stopped in for another potty break. I do believe our 1 year old Goldendoodle has found a new friend. Since our little girls recommends Nicole we do too. Thanks Nicole for taking care of our babygirl.”
“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 a full house of pets since I was a small child, and am excited to be able to care for more since leaving my animals at home with my family for college.

I have large spaces during the day and early evening :) While I don't have a home to house your pets in, I will follow all of your specific instructions in caring for your animals in your home
About: I have taken care of my friends and neighbors pets countless times while they were away. I have also owned two dogs since I was twelve so I'm really great with pets! I am currently a stay at home wife so I have lots of flexibility! I will make sure your animals get the best care ever! Although, I am not able to care for pets in my own home I can take care of them in yours. I enjoy going to local parks and being outside so I would love to be outside with your pet.
“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!”
“Rebecca is a natural with dogs and she handled our older dog and our puppy both with great love and care. She is reliable and we were able to count on her even with unexpected delays in getting home.”
About: I grew up with cats and dogs of all kinds and ages. Senior and puppy/kitten pet care are part of my experience. From long walks, to fun games, to specialty foods and injury recovery, I’ve seen and done it all. Your pets will be well loved and cared for by me. Currently, I have a wide open schedule as I prepare for my next job in the next few months. I can do multiple walks a day or stay overnight with pets. I can offer caring for your pets in your own home and will utilize your resources appropriately and safely. My own home, if truly needed, is in a lovely neighborhood for nice walks, with a fenced in backyard. Currently, there are no other pets in the house.
“Destiny was amazing! She was very caring and attentive to our little pup. She checked in with us and took excellent care of him. I will for sure be booking with her again.”
“Shannon took wonderful care of our 18 year old cat over Christmas, including her twice-daily insulin injections and feeding (no small task). She was reliable, attentive, and clearly very comfortable handling medical care. She stayed in communication with us and sent us regular photos of how our cat was doing. We had complete peace of mind knowing she was in such capable and caring hands. We would absolutely recommend Shannon and would happily book her again.”
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.

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.”

“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!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. There’s truly no animal I don’t love. My schedule is really flexible throughout the week, and I’m more than happy to work around other people’s availability as best as I can. I truly enjoy making things as convenient as possible so that we can connect without any stress! Upon first meeting I try to the understand the pets emotionally and what their needs may be. Having four animals myself I have learned how each animal can have varying needs and expectations, and how to best work with the pet. Ultimately, I love animals more than anything and would love to be able to help whenever or wherever needed!
“So professional and helpful!! Highly recommend! David really went above and beyond, taking JuneBug on a nice long walk down along the river, and including lots of photos of her smiling face.”

About: Hanging out with pets is my favorite thing. I have been around dogs and helped train them my whole life. I know that a dog needs extra attention while mom and dad are away so I will be there to keep them occupied. I have an open availability and can be there whenever necessary. I have experience dealing with high strung pups who may have a touch of separation anxiety from dealing with my own furbaby. I will treat all pets as if they are my own and will make sure all their needs are met. I am in the process of obtaining dog sitting certificates and CPR certification so that I will be fully equipped. I look forward to working with you and your pet(s).

“Joanna is a caring and very knowledgeable professional. It is clear from the first minute that she has a real talent and heart for animals. She worked with our finicky little girl and lo and behold found a food she loves. Being an only dog, Jamie loved learning how to be part of a pack and also appreciated having a cat, like her pal at home, to be with. Joanna not only put up with our little diva's idiosyncrasies, she enjoyed them. We, and Jamie, look forward to having another "adventure" with Joanna.”
“With it being our first time using Rover, I could not be more pleased with our experience! Halle and Thomas were a breeze to work with. I really appreciated our phone call ahead of booking, and I could immediately tell Halle was so knowledgeable and loves dogs so much! She communicated with me each day that we were away with message updates and photos of our Diamond girl enjoying her stay! 10/10, no notes, looking forward to booking again! Thanks again Halle and Thomas!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care my two older dogs received! Amanda was attentive, reliable, and clearly loves animals. My dogs both require medications and she administered them with no issues. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Finn and Skye came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to know I have someone I can trust with my dog when I travel. Her children also were helpful and played with my dogs while in her care. They sent the dogs home with the cutest hand-drawn pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Lucy had a great time w the family and came home tired. David was quick to respond w any questions or if I just needed to check in. I will certainly try to book them again in the future. Thanks for taking such good care of my girl.”
“Rachel and her family took amazing care of my pup, the kids made my heart melt especially with how gentle and caring they were towards him! 10/10 recommend for sitting overnight ☺️”
“Scott was EXCELLENT! They made my dogs feel right at home and eased their separation anxiety. He was great at communicating with updates and pictures and was very flexible with us.”
“This was our first time using this service and it truly exceeded my expectations. Tori & Zachari were truly wonderful. They were very thoughtful in scheduling a meet and greet with our two dogs to ensure everything would go smoothly during their stay. During the meet and greet they were very mindful of making it a relaxed experience for all and by the time I dropped my dogs off for the visit I could tell they would be in great hands. During their stay, Tori and Zachary were responsive, ensured to give updates, and continued to show how thoughtful they were with their care. We got plenty of pictures showing what an amazing time our doggies had. Our dogs looked happy and relaxed when we picked them up. We will be using Tori and Zachary again for sure!”
“Our Cattle Dog “Jackeroo” just spent a week with Mario & Sharee. He’s an active 11 month old, and needs lot of exercise. He had a really large fenced field to run around in, and was kept busy chasing balls and by taking long, 40 minute walks. We saw many pictures of him, so kept track of his activity. He was a happy pup when we picked him up yesterday. He does like most folks, and clearly liked Sharee a lot. He was relaxed and happy! Jack had a great vacation, and so did we! We are happy to have found Mario & Sharee, and definitely plan to have Jack stay with them on our next trip. We both highly recommend them! —Peter & Tatiana”
About: I have had dogs,cats, hamsters and rabbits my whole life. I care for them like family. I’m the go to pet sitter for family and friends. I work from home as a nurse. So it is very easy for me to fit your furry friend into the schedule. Hope to hear from you soon! I will abide by your rules for your pet and care for them as you would. I will be considerate of your space and the comfort of your pet.
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: Hi there! My name is Hayley and I have an extreme love and passion for ALL animals! Since I was a baby and got my first cat at 6 weeks old, I have grown up in a household full of animals with everything from cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, you name it, and those animals have taught me so much, enough that I want to give back to the local community and their animals! My specialties are with cats and dogs of any age, though if you have another animal in need of service, I am open to anything and ready to learn! Currently, I have two dogs (Jack Russells who are 2 and 8 yrs old) of my own that I have raised since they were both 8 weeks old. I have knowledge in feeding, medication management, daily exercise, enrichment activities such as tricks, routine care (bathing animals), hygiene maintenance, potty training, and as always, I strive to have strong, reliable communication with owners of your furry friends! I specialize in cats and dogs BUT if you are need of services for another animal, please dont hesitate to reach out as I am willing to help, learn whatever I need to, and give some extra love to your pet! AFTER August 10th, all services will be unavailable until December as I return to school outside of the area. Please do NOT book past August 10th. Thanks so much for understanding! ☺️ Mon-Sun: 8am-2:30pm (schedule varies but I will try my best to work something out with you!!) Meet and Greets: Scheduled meetings BEFORE desired sitting dates; I come to your home to get to know you, your fur babies, and the required schedule/rules. (I leave this up to the client's preference but I usually recommend it!) (CAN provide services before/after hours when requested!!) *AFTER August 10th, all services will be unavailable until December as I return to school outside of the area. Please do NOT book past August 10th.* Thanks so much for understanding! ☺️ As I previously mentioned, I have two dogs (both Jack Russells) of my own that are 2 and 8 years old. I strive to maintain a clean space and comfortable for my pets where they can relax and follow their usual routines with no worries. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide daily exercise and playtime, and ensure their safety by always supervising. They have designated rest areas (although I do allow animals on furniture), plenty of enrichment activities/toys, and lots of affection of course! I also have a large yard where my dogs love to run around and play with toys (when outside, they are always supervised) and a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks! I am always keeping my eyes on them, making sure they are healthy, eating/drinking, and exercising correctly. In a clients home is a bit different as this is not my personal space. I tend to follow the routine/schedule exactly as written and complete the usual duties such as feeding, walking, playtime, waste/litter cleanup, etc. I keep the home clean, ensure safety over the property and animals, and provide regular updates and photos to owners during each visit. I always double check and make sure all pets are comfortable, safe, and have everything they need in their space before I leave.
“Ohmygoodness, Gianina is 100% FANTASTIC! She is SO kind and has such a beautiful spirit. I knew she had a huge heart for animals when she smiled at Riley as soon as she laid eyes on him. She didn’t know that I noticed it. She is SO wonderful... I don’t have enough words. I highly recommend her for anyone who needs someone to watch their fur kiddo. She is a sweet soul and very, very caring and interested in taking care of pets. Riley whined all the way back home… I suspect it’s because he didn’t want to leave her. lol Thank you, Gianina!!! You’re an angel!”
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.
