“Marilyn is great with my pup! Evie is always excited to see her. She’s dependable, reliable, and communicates great. She always leaves a report and lets me know how Evie is and if anything out of the ordinary has happened. Would highly recommend her services.”
“Brittany was very patient with my crazy lab. She's clearly well loved by animals. My lab ran to her and jumped up on her but she was calm and understanding. She waited until he calmed down and only then walked him.”

About: Experienced pet sitter who lives on a spacious farm with a fenced in yard. I love all pets and love to care for them in your home or mine. I know how to handle pets who require medical care from giving meds to vet visits. I have pets in my home who are curious and loving to both cats and dogs. Let me be your pet’s new best friend and care giver! I work part time from home and have plenty of time to care for your pets but where you need it. I’m flexible with my time to fit your needs. I have a fenced in yard which my pup loves to spend hours in. My house has plenty of space for all sizes of pets to feel comfortable. I have one dog and one cat in the home who are friendly and multiple farm animals on the property. For care in your home, I’m available to do walks, have play time, and provide for their various needs.
About: I have a very flexible schedule. I love all animals small and big! I have cats but they are super friendly. I have an unfenced yard, and I have several dog friendly places. I have a vehicle for plenty of fun car rides. I have 2 doggos. Mojo Madness and Roger Dodger. My flexible schedule allows for pretty much anything that you need for your furry friend. I do have a gate to keep dogs and my cats separate if they are prone to chasing. I'm a very active person so being out and about outside is something that I love to do, especially with a furry friend of any size. I have a very very flexible schedule. My full time is mostly remote, and it is not something that requires the typical 9-5. If you have more questions please feel free to reach out. Trust is super important when you are trusting someone with your bestie. I pride myself with communication. If you have any question at all or if you need certain assurances that you pet is safe with me I would be happy to oblige.
About: I am looking to provide love and care to your fur babies when you aren’t able to. I have two fur babies of my own currently and have had many in the past. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all different shapes and sizes! I look forward to meeting your fur babies and caring for them like my own. I work as a bus driver so between my morning and evening run I have plenty of time to make stop ins and check on pet and/or take them for a walk. My partner works from home which provides a flexible schedule. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to care for your pets in my home due to our young children. However, your pets safety and comfort will be a top priority for me when coming into your home to care for them.
“She took excellent care of my baby while I was at work & with VERY short notice 🤩”
About: I’ve taken care of my household dogs for 18 years. Sadly due to my father’s allergies I haven’t been able to have a cat. But have been around them in any chance I can get and have experience caring for them. I’m working part time but would love to make room for taking care of your pets. I also volunteer at St Mary’s but will do my best to fit your animal into my schedule. I can’t care for pets in my own home due to my family not wanting to be around pets at the moment. But I would love to branch out to other homes to care for your pets.
“Natalie took great care of our beagle with two long walks. She is very nice, prompt, and super comfortable handling our dog. Will definitely use her services again. Thank you!”
About: I've spent my life surrounded by all types of pets, from dogs and cats to smaller critters. I love getting outside and going on walks and making sure your pets are happy and comfortable. They will be treated like family while in my care! I am self employed and work from home for the most part. My schedule is flexible throughout the week and I can accept same day sitting. Working from home with a flexible schedule and a fenced-in property means that with me, your pets will get plenty of playtime, walks, and attention
About: Hi there, my name is Ciara! I’ve been working with Rover for about 7 years now, and I have met some absolutely amazing people and their pets along the way. As of right now, I am only able to accept house-sitting requests where the owner is comfortable with my dog, Rhett, tagging along! If that sounds alright with you, please don’t hesitate to send me a message. Rhett is a lover of all dogs! We can do a meet & greet beforehand to make sure everyone gets along. 😊 I currently am a teacher for New Hanover County Schools, and have a Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Psychology. I love all animals, but dogs and cats have a special place in my heart. Whether you want me to take your pets on walks frequently, or to just keep them home and snuggle them to pieces, I can do it all. I’m experienced with all sizes, many different breeds and personalities, and handling medicine for your pet isn’t an issue either! If you’re looking for a pet sitter, please send me a message, I’d love to meet you all! I am a full time teacher, so my pet and any I watch must be comfortable with me being gone the standard 8 hour work day! Other than that, I am almost always home with the exception of going to the gym or needing to run an errand. I treat a client’s pet safety as equally important as I treat the safety of my own pet. I go above and beyond to make sure animals are taken care of!
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young. I have owned both dogs and cats growing up and pet sitting for about 2 years now. I am able to take care of senior cats and dogs with extreme care while proving lots of love while you’re away. I’m working part time-so I’ll have plenty of time for your furry family members! I also live in the heart of Huntington, everything is close! When house sitting I can stay at your house for your comfort if you feel so inclined. I can also pop in 4-5 times a day. When cat sitting I would rather keep the cat in their environment so they are able to be calm and stress free. I also send pictures every time I visit with updates. I also require vet information just in case something were to happen to them.
About: I’m well-organized, thorough, caring, and responsible. I’m currently a social worker and have lots of experience mentoring kids of all ages. I’m a mom to two doggies: a beagle mix and a pittie mix. I will treat your pets like I treat my own and always show up for them. I can’t wait to meet them! I have a flexible job where I make my own schedule, so I am available to meet your pets’ needs. I am open to including any time regimen into my schedule and happy for new learning opportunities. My dogs are crate-trained and sleeps in their crates at night. I will follow any requested procedures for your home and the care of your pets.
About: As someone who has owned dogs, cats, bunnies, pigs, an axolotl, a monkey (yes a monkey); I feel well versed and confident in my abilities to give your pet all the love and care it desires. From baby stage to old age, I am willing and capable. I am a PE teacher who looks forward to sharing love for exercise with your pet! This is how I leisurely stay active and moving after work hours and during summer break. During the months of June and July, I am offering open availability to reach the needs of as many pets as possible. Whilst the school year is in session, August-May, availability moves to evenings through the week, and open availability on the weekends. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine. I make sure your furry friend feels safe, and gets plenty of attention. From daily walks and playtime to meal prep and snuggles, I provide consistent, loving care while keeping your home tidy and secure. In my home, I provide a safe, cozy, and pet-friendly space where they can relax, play, and feel right at home. I stick closely to your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and medication if needed. Whether they’re high-energy or more laid-back, I tailor the day to their needs—with lots of playtime, cuddles, and supervision throughout. I have a large fenced in backyard that leaves lots of room for zoomies and playtime. I never leave pets unattended for long periods, and I make sure they’re always comfortable, entertained, and loved. I have a very playful Dachshund who looks forwards to play dates :) I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. As someone who desires to give back to the community in a variety of ways, I can assure you, your pet is in good hands.
About: I used to be a kennel technician who walked dogs, practiced training, while offering playtime for them and cleaning up their space. I’ve always loved caring for animals and wildlife and want to branch out on my own. I’m also a college student currently! I have a very flexible schedule right now, all that’s needed is to message me and see how our availabilities line up! I integrate your pets life into mine. I have a variety of treats and food on hand, but will follow whatever diet your dog needs. I also have the time for high energy dogs or dogs that need training through e-collars or etc. I also own lots of toys and a large crate, or litter box if need be. If you have any more specific questions please ask!
