1. Barber F.
“Sprained my ankle recently and started using Rover to help exercise my dogs. Barber has been great! My boys took to her fast and are always excited to see her and tired after their walk. Great with communicating delays and when she is on her way”
2. Dinira S.
“Dinira is an absolute pleasure to work with. She accommodated our request for a walk just the day before we needed it and for a new dog. She easily put our usually suspicious lab at ease and he came back quite happy! She can walk our dog anytime.”
3. Nicole B.
“Nicole was absolutely wonderful. She took such good care of my pet and she was very timely in her visits. Her communication with me during my time away from my pet was excellent. I will rebook with Nicole again!”
4. Brenda H.
“Brenda did a wonderful job taking care of our elderly cat. She came to our house twice a day and followed our specific instructions. She communicated with us while we were away with videos, photos and texts. We knew our precious kitty was in great hands!”
5. Ankit P.
“10/10 . ⭐️Came by on short notice. ⭐️Took them in his car to walk them in a more wooded area. ⭐️handled two high energy dogs at once ⭐️safely retuned while I was out ⭐️ walk was very long and they were very tuckered out!”
6. Samantha M.
“Samantha was great! She took extra special care of my older Keeshond, Molly. She walked, feed and brushed Molly during her multiple visits. Molly loved her. She also gave my cat, Rooster some love too!! Samantha is very responsible and detail oriented. She communicates well and she sent me the best photos of Molly and Rooster every day. I will definitely use Samantha again. She was awesome!”
7. Dave F.
“I’ve known Dave for 7 years. He has always been an animal lover and a pet owner. His sister works at a veterinary office and through regular pet ownership and things he learned through his sister, he has obtained quite a bit of knowledge about both dogs and cats. He has had previous experience dog/cat sitting and house sitting in Georgia before he moved to North Carolina when he graduated college. He is a clean cut, conservatively dressed, polite, intelligent, and very respectful young man who takes care of others’ animals and possessions as much as he cares for his own. I don’t believe he has an enemy anywhere in the world. He is an overall nice guy who just really loves animals. I have trusted him with my animals numerous times as well as my mother. I will do so again.”
8. Stephanie S.
“Stephanie was so great! She walked our dog for us all week while we were away because our friend staying with Vern sprained her ankle. She was super responsive and sent multiple pictures with each walk. Absolutely 10/10 and will be using her again!”
9. Laura W.
“Laura is the best communicator and caregiver for my little guy!!! I’ll definitely be using her more regular for his walks as it fits in her schedule! Thanks again!”
10. Sophia E.
“Sophia is an extremely responsible girl. I had HER watch the house and dogs over the 24 yr old because she is probably one of the most mature kids I've ever seen. I've NEVER come home to a dirty home, she lives the dogs and will always ask a question if needed. We very much love having her watch our home.”
11. Caitlin F.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young. I used to work at a vet hospital and trained my yellow lab myself. I graduated from NC State in May and I am back in Winston nannying and dog sitting while searching for a new job :) Please let me know how I can be of service to you! I live in a nice neighborhood with a backyard. I am right by three major parks where I take my dog to where she can run and play around.
12. Josh M.
“Josh is an extremely caring, considerate, generous and animal-loving young man. Any animal entrusted to him will be cared for as if it is his own.”
13. Michael H.
About: My love for dogs and cats has been a constant in my life since childhood. I have always had an animal companion at home, be it a dog, cat, hamster, or fish. I even won a fish at the fairground once. I continue to care for my mother's dog when she is away on vacation. Now, as I pursue a career in law enforcement, I am eager to start part-time work in animal care. My ultimate goal is to join the K9 team, a dream that fuels my passion for animal care and this job will allow me to further my bond with the dogs and cats. I currently work full-time, but we have a fantastic schedule where we can have two and three days off. I can also stay with the dog or cat longer but I will be working 12 hours on the days I have unavailable. I have a fence in the dog park, my apartment has a gate to get in, and you need a key for about everything in my apartment. Further I near the downtown area if you need me ASAP.
14. Madison W.
“Madison is a very compassionate, caring and responsible young woman. She has had pets her entire life and has always helped with taking care of her pets. Our neighbors are always requesting Madison to watch their dogs when they go out of town.”
15. Audrianna R.
“I can’t not say enough nice things about Audrianna! She kept me updated during his walk checked in with me the whole time! She was amazing I will always use her for my dog walker/pet sitter!”
16. Luci D.
“Luci was wonderful!!! My pup loves her and she takes the cutest pictures of him after their long walks. Would highly recommend!”
17. Amoli K.
“I booked Amoli last minute for Labor Day weekend when I needed a dogsitter and she was amazing!! She is very communicative on every detail which I need for my pups. She will call and text you with any questions she has which I really appreciate. Thanks for being clutch when I needed you for my babies! Definitely recommend!!!”
18. Lauren B.
About: My name is Lauren. I provide house sitting, drop in visits, and dog walking services. I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats. I have previously worked at a doggy daycare. I have my own dog, Opal, who will accompany me on house sits. She is very friendly and playful. She is up to date on all her shots, and she is house/crate trained. I do ask for meet and greets for all new clients, to ensure our pets are compatible and that I can offer the care requested. Opal would not accompany me on drop in visits. I work remotely full time and I can keep your pets company all day. I will have plenty of time to give them all the walks, play time, and cuddles they deserve. I'm not much of a night life person so, apart from the occasional fitness class, I'll be home with your pets all evening as well. While staying in your home, I will be respectful of your space while providing plenty of love and attention to your pets. I am happy to water plants, take out the trash, and mind any other small household tasks. I love taking pictures and videos and I will send updates often throughout the stay.
19. Morgan M.
About: Hi, My experience with animals is extensive. I love them dearly and also I’m very patient when needed. I have a pet of my own. His name is Rocco. He is a corgi, but I’ve grew up with all types of dogs and I have had tons of experiences with cats and taking care of them. I’m currently working part time as a nanny. I have some days off. It depends on the week. You would just have to let me know when you want care. I care and make sure my dog has plenty of water, food, love, lots of play and attention. Overall, I would be so excited to take care for your pet.
20. Grace May S.
About: I've taken care and loved all shapes, sizes, and kinds of animals since I was little. My darling boy, Gus, has been my best friend since I was ten, and I adore having furry friends (I would have a hundred if I had the money and space, lol). I'm currently working as a freelancer, so my daily schedule can change and mold to fit what your pup needs. Honestly, I'm more down to hang out with your dogs than do my remote work, lol. Depending on the dog, I can keep them entertained by playing with them, or just chill around with them if that's what they prefer. I just like hanging out with dogs, however it looks.
