My husband and I are really happy that Savannah came and house/pet sit for us. She did an outstanding job! We give her 12 paws up because we have 3 dogs and they will agree! She was truly amazing with our dogs, they simply love her! I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to get away from home for a little while. One of our dogs are anti social and Savannah brought her out of that! We have never seen Missy interact with anyone but she loves Savannah!! You can rest assure when you hire Savannah she won't let you down. My husband and I are very comfortable and relaxed with her and our dogs too! We will be hiring her back if she's available when we need her.

Jessica took amazing care of all of our fur and feathered babies while we were away for the weekend. She sent pictures and didn’t hesitate to ask if she had any questions.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of patience, reliability, and genuine care I bring to every dog I work with. I always treat each pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and engaged while you’re away. I’m attentive to routines, quick to pick up on each dog’s personality, and always communicate clearly with updates, photos, and check-ins. I also have hands-on experience working with puppies—helping with basic training, reinforcing good habits, and keeping their schedules consistent. For senior dogs, I’m very gentle and understanding of their needs, from slower walks to medication reminders and extra comfort. No matter the age, size, or energy level, I tailor my care to fit exactly what your dog needs. Overall, I bring professionalism, compassion, and a calm, dependable presence that helps your pet feel right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work Monday–Friday from 8–5, but I’m very flexible and can adjust my schedule when needed. Before and after work, I make time for walks, feedings, check-ins, and playtime, and I’m always available for early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I plan my days around making sure pets get the attention, structure, and consistency they need, so even with a full schedule, I’m always able to provide reliable and loving care. When I’m caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to follow their routine exactly the way the owner prefers. I keep things familiar for the pet—feeding at their normal times, sticking to their usual walk schedule, and keeping their environment clean and comfortable. I always give plenty of playtime, attention, and affection, and I send regular updates and photos so owners feel connected and reassured while they’re away. If a pet requires special care—like medication, crate routines, puppy training, or senior support—I make sure those needs are handled consistently and gently. My goal is to keep pets relaxed, happy, and safe by making their day-to-day life feel as normal as possible, whether I’m stopping in for a visit or staying longer.

About: I have a lot of experience with various breeds and ages. My goal is to make this stay as comfortable as possible so your pup can also enjoy their vacation away from home! I can send as many pictures and video updates as you like. *Boarding and Doggy Day Care* I'm available for boarding every day of the week. I can provide outside breaks in my fenced backyard as needed. For overnight stays, we will go on a daily walk if that's part of your pup's routine. I offer a bathing add on service for stays longer than 2 weeks. *For House Sitting* I'm available to house sit on the weekends. I can also water your plants as needed. I'd like to have a meet and great to make sure we're a great fit for each other. I have a fenced backyard and will usually join the dogs I'm caring for when I take them out. We will also have a lot of play time and cuddle time during our time together. Please share any special needs and habits your dog may have (e.g., feeding habit, special diet or allergies, where they sleep, escape artist, food-motivated troublemaker/mastermind, etc.) I've had experienced with various types of personalities and I'm requesting this information to ensure safety and ease your pup's stay. I can feed on a schedule or leave the food down if you have a grazer. I have experience with dry food, wet food, toppers, dehydrated dog food and I'm willing to learn other methods as needed. If your dog has any injury-related restrictions, I can accommodate them accordingly (e.g., use client-provided ramps and encouraging the use of them, picking up your dog to avoid the use of stairs and jumping). I have experience with using dehydrated dog food, adding toppers, use of ramps, dealing with an escape artist (e.g., maintain watch in my fenced years), handling a food-motivated dog (e.g., a lock on my trash can, no food in lower and easy-to-access areas, fenced kitchen), and ear cleaning, including for long ear breed dogs.

About: Hi! I have over 9 years of pet sitting and taking care of pet experience! I used to work in a dog shelter where there was a quick need for dogs in quick care and for fun playtimes! My husband and I take care of dogs together it helps me especially if the dog is very big and tuff! I am very organized and I am quick to get tasks done. I am also bilingual in Spanish and English just in case so there’s no language barrier I also have 2 sweet dogs of my own. I genuinely love dogs and I just love to see them happy it doesn’t take them much to please them and to make their day which I truly have the experience and capability to be able to do that for your dog :) I work a part time as a paralegal. I space out my hours for pet care so I can be able to give any potential furry friend the care that is needed! :) I live in an apartment complex that has a dog park nearby and my nice quiet neighborhood is walking distance from middle school and gym. Currently right now my dog has been staying with my mom so she can get that company only for this summer! So I look forward to having the opportunity through Rover. I mostly do this for fun and supplemental income in my free time! I have a very flexible schedule! And I do same day bookings because things do happen! I am quick to respond in any form of communication look forward to working with you!

About: Hey! I'm Grace and I was introduced to dogs at a very early age in life, I grew up with Rottweilers and I lived on a farm my entire life. I now reside in Laurinburg, NC. I have my own dog who is my pride and joy. His name is Graham! I gad him transported from IL to NC and ever since then he's been way more than just a companion. We do dog sports together and he has made my love for dogs beyond explainable. I've been professionally working with animals for over 3 years now ( but, I am more comfortable and experienced with dogs & cats. ) I'm experienced in handling older and younger dogs as well as administrating oral medicine to dogs if needed. I'm someone who is constantly always helping dogs as I am going to school and CATCH academy to get my CDT and hopefully study vet med! I dedicate all my time to helping animals, so my days and weekends are consistently of me taking care of your pets! If you have a special or specific routine, then I'm here to listen and accommodate that! In your home, I am here to listen and take care of your pet the way you think is best for your animal(s) as YOU know them best! I am always coming with toys and treats for your pets and I will confirm beforehand if a toy/treat is acceptable to give to the pet, I also have transportation in case of emergencies. I hope before I come care for your dog we can make a plan that's suited best for the both of you! Whether that be potty breaks every 1-2 hours or special meals during the day, just let me know!

Haley stayed with our two pups this Christmas Eve while we were out of town. She was very friendly, communicative and arrived for drop in visits and the overnight stay as agreed upon. She sent pics today and our dogs looked very content with her. We will definitely be using her the next time we need a sitter.

Bryan was very hands-on when it came to communication between himself and I. My fur baby seemed to be having the time of his life while staying with Bryan. I could also tell that Bryan treated my baby Rocky as one of his own. I definitely would recommend booking him as he is a sweet, charming and a loving human being. THANK YOU BRYAN!

Plenty of love and attention given so they will not feel alone.

About: I absolutely LOVE cats, but I love dogs as well! I grew up with a cat that I was extremely close to, and now and I have a little one of my own. Though I have never owned a dog myself, I am comfortable around them, have petsit dogs and am more than happy to take care of one! My family used to travel for extended periods of time growing up and I would be so anxious about our pets being at home alone, even though they were being taken care of. I understand that anxious feeling and can definitely offer you peace of mind when you're away. I will be super interactive with your pet and play with them as much as they'd like! It's important to give them lots of attention and love when you are away. Though I am busy with school, I can do many things on my own time, making my schedule very flexible. This is how I am able to fit pet care into my daily routine! I will always keep my home and your home safe for pets! I am careful about what I leave in the open that pets have access to and I always refresh food and water, making sure to keep them in an appropriate location. I will always double-check fencing in the yard to make sure all pets are secure with no possibility of escaping.

About: I recently moved here but grew up on a large agriculture/cattle farm in Wa state. I’ve shown all animals growing up, and competed in rodeo throughout most my high school years. I have had many dogs and many cats throughout my life as well as rescued more animals than I can count. I have a masters in mental health counseling but worked alongside a veterinarian throughout college. I currently have 6 dogs and 4 cats of my own, which most of them were strays I found. I truly believe animals are our children and they deserve to be loved and cared for as such. I am detail oriented and can ensure your baby(s) will be well taken care of. I currently am not working, so I am home full time. I recently got engaged, and my fiancé is military so I have lots of free time to help with whatever it is you may need! I have personally never crated my animals, but if it is what you prefer I will do that. We do have a very large yard with no neighbors, but I don’t even let my own dogs run around unsupervised. I did build a small fenced area in the back that attaches to a dogggy door in the house just so they can go out in emergency situations. My animals are allowed on furniture and of course sleep in the bed to get all the cuddles. I’ve been lucky to never have issues with chewing or accidents but I know all animals are different. I can truly accommodate to anything to make sure your pet is well taken care of.
