About: I have a 5 year old husky and pitbull mixed dog named xena as well as a 9 year Old cat named Lilly! I was raised around animals (dogs and cats) we would take litters and rehabilitate them until they were ready to go to their forever homes and we would also rescue cats and dogs and rehabilitate them as well! I am looking to be a full time pet care provider! I only have to take care of my dog as well! I look forward to giving you all the assistance and helping as much as I can! I will ask what your preferences are like times they need to go out or feeding times and keep them plenty of company on my visits and make sure they are greatly taken care of.

“Absolutely wonderful. My two dogs love her. Sydney was great at communicating. Would definitely recommend and hire her again!”

“Olivia was awesome with our pups! She checked in as scheduled and kept us informed each time. The pups loved her and she spent quality time walking and playing with them. We will definitely book with her again!”

About: I have taken care of many breeds of dogs to include small and large breeds. I’m available for housesitting as well as drop in visits and walks on short notice.I’m excited to get your baby out and get them some exercise. I am currently laid off and have open availability. I would love the opportunity to help with your babies needs while you’re on vacation or just for a walk. I care for my two pets in my home every day. I am a trustworthy individual who loves animals. I am able to host some animals in my home. I am also able to go into homes and walk animals or pet sit.

About: I’ve always connected well with animals, especially dogs. I’ve dog walked and watched others’ animals from a very young age. I was 22 when I decided to become a dog trainer. I was fortunate enough to attend one of the best programs in the country at Animal Behavior College, with a certificate in canine behavior therapy & a concentration in rehabilitating shelter dogs. I’m also qualified to train emotional support animals, which has been so rewarding. I chose this as a career path because of how much I genuinely love all living things. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them the best care they could ask for! I own my own business, so I make my own schedule. I can tend to whatever schedule best suits the animals. I don’t have pets of my own, so that gives me even more flexibility. I always make sure I’m doing my best to care for animals, in any aspect of my life or career. I’m diligent in making sure their feeding, walking and play schedules are upheld promptly, and that their routines stay relatively in tact. This is one of the best things you can do to ease a pet’s anxiety about their owners being away. I work as a trainer, which means I’m happy to add on training sessions with your pet while they’re in my care, through my business if that’s something of interest. I’m very amenable to the specifications for each individual animal. Some dogs like to be given affection on the couch for a few minutes each day. Others might enjoy watching the birds in their yard for a while. I’m always happy to attune my care for each dog. When walking a dog, the quality of the walks are just as important as their frequency. Dogs require a certain level of mental stimulation each day, and ten minutes of sniffing is enough to satisfy most dog’s needs. They need the sniffing as much as the exercise. Your dog will be given ample time to sniff and “read the doggy newspaper”, as well as get some great exercise. I always make sure the animal has gotten everything that they need from the experience.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes and species — from playful puppies and senior pets to cats, small mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and livestock. I’m Fear Free certified and trained in preventative care, nutrition, feline urinary health, and exotic & small mammal care. I also hold a Wildlife Rehabilitation Apprentice License (any wildlife I care for with never be in the house and your fur babies will never be exposed to them) I’m confident in safe handling, administering medications (oral, topical, and insulin), and caring for pets with medical needs, anxiety, or special requirements. I offer grooming services (no cuts) and like to send pets home with clean food and water bowls and fresh bedding. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, or needs extra cuddles, my goal is always the same: to keep them safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Clear communication is a priority, and I’m always happy to answer questions and tailor care to your pet’s unique needs. Bonus: - I also have military base access! - Drop ins on week days I'm available 1700-2200 (5pm-10pm) - Drop In’s on the weekend I'm available 0800-2200 (8am-10pm) I am currently available all the time as I am a stay at home mom. I also love working with animals in or outside a clinical setting. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities — whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. I create a calm, structured environment and tailor my approach to each animal’s needs, personality, and routine. When Pets Stay in My Home: - Safe, supervised environment: I keep a clean, pet-friendly home with secure areas for play, rest, and meals. Pets are never left unsupervised with unfamiliar animals. - Separate spaces if needed: If a pet is shy, anxious, or prefers their own space, I can safely separate them from others while still giving them plenty of attention and enrichment. - Clear safety plans: If I’m hosting more than one family at a time and any pet shows signs of stress or aggression, I follow a structured safety plan and communicate everything with you. - Fosters kept separate: I occasionally foster kittens or puppies, but they are always fully vetted and housed in a completely separate, contained area away from guest pets. - Comfort & routine: Pets have access to soft bedding, fresh water at all times, and plenty of affection, enrichment, and potty breaks. When I Care for Pets in Your Home: - Respecting your home and routine: I follow your instructions exactly — feeding schedules, medication routines, walk preferences, crate habits, and household rules. - Low-stress handling: I use Fear Free techniques to help pets feel relaxed, especially those who are nervous or slow to warm up. - Consistency: I keep pets on their normal routine to reduce stress and maintain a familiar environment. Experience You Can Trust: - I’m trained in safe animal handling, medication administration (oral, topical, and insulin), recognizing signs of stress or illness, and caring for dogs, cats, small mammals, and livestock. - I ask plenty of questions up front so I can fully understand your pet’s needs and keep them safe and comfortable. - I believe communication is key — you’ll receive honest updates, photos, and messages so you always feel connected.

About: I’m a registered nurse and caring for others is my passion. I’ve had animals my whole life. Dogs, cats, fish, lizards, and birds! I’m comfortable administering medications, going on walks, dog sitting, helping senior dogs mobilize, you name it! I currently have two miniature schnauzers who I’m absolutely obsessed with. Thank you for letting me be a small part of your pet’s life! I work night shift, 3 nights a week, which gives me great flexibility to assist with your fur babies. I’m happy to help in any way I can! I will travel to you! I find most animals are most comfortable in their own environment but am happy to take them out on adventures too!

“I don’t know how we got this fortunate with a lovely human as Andrea to be a companion to our pups but she rules!! Thank you loads, Andrea!!”

About: I have taken care of animals for the majority of my life whether that be nursing stray kittens back to health, assembling special meals for my dogs specific health requirements, or pet and house sitting for friends and family members so they could take a well needed vacation. I have always held a deep love for animals and a career where I can be around them all day sounds more like a dream than a job. While not a certified dog trainer I do have experience with training puppies for small tricks such as sit, place, stay, down, etc. and would be happy to teach your fur baby as I take care of them. As a full time student I have a very open schedule with asynchronous classes that allow me to be there when your fur baby requires. I make sure to keep my pets on a regular schedule with grooming, food, vet visits and play sessions so they may have the best experiences as they grow and develope.

About: ⸻ I have extensive experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and more. I’ve successfully managed households with multiple pets—such as four dogs and a bird at once—and specialize in providing attentive, hands-on care for senior pets and those with medical needs. I offer in-home pet sitting to ensure a smooth, low-stress experience for your pets while you’re away. I pride myself on being reliable, respectful, and fully committed to the well-being of every animal in my care. I’m currently transitioning out of my previous role, which means I’m available full-time for pet care. I’m excited to dedicate my time and energy to caring for your pets with the attention and reliability they deserve! I care for pets like they’re my own, giving them love, attention, and consistency right in the comfort of their home. I go above and beyond to make sure every animal feels safe, happy, and loved—because when I’m your sitter, your pet gets the best.

“Did an amazing job at keeping my kitties happy, safe, and living in a clean environment! Always kept me updated with pictures and updates. Definitely would recommend her to care for any of your pets.”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was young. I started caring for dogs and cats were neighbors, friends, and family around age 10, and have also gained around three years of professional experience working in dog boarding facilities. Through my experience, I have cared for puppies, senior pets, dogs of all sizes and personalities, cats, and multi pet households. I am comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, crate routines, senior care, and routine medication administration. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure each one feels safe, comfortable, and loved. My background as a birth Doula has strengthened my patience, compassion, organization, and ability to stay calm under pressure. I bring those same qualities into pet care by providing dependable communication, attention to detail, and a calm presence for your pets while you’re away. I’m also a proud dog mom, and I know firsthand that pets are family. My goal is to treat every pet like my own while giving you peace of mind through reliable care, updates, and lots of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and is something I truly enjoy being a part of my life. Because I work as a birth doula with a mix of scheduled and on-call availability, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, drop in visits, and companionship for your pets throughout the day or night. I am open about my availability and will always communicate my on-call dates with pet parents ahead of time. When I am available, I have the flexibility to dedicate quality time to your pets and provide reliable, attentive care. If a birth call overlaps with a booking, I will communicate as early as possible and make sure we have a clear plan in place. My goal is to create a dependable routine for your pets, while giving you peace of mind that they are cared for, loved, and never forgotten. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for your pets. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or providing visits, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and creating a calm, familiar environment, where they feel secure. When caring for pets in their own home, I believe consistency is key. I follow your instructions carefully, respect your space, keep your home, secure, and pay attention to the little details that help your pets to feel comfortable while you’re away. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and confident that your pets are happy and well cared for. For walks and drop in visits, I prioritize, safe handling, awareness of surroundings, and your pets individual needs and personality. I take the time to understand their routines, triggers, preferences, and comfort level before providing care. As an animal lover, pet parent, and experienced caregiver, I understand the trust involved in allowing someone to take care of your furry family members. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and dependable experience that gives both you and your pets peace of mind.

About: I have had dogs and cats for over 15 years and have pet sit many times. I have experienced with puppies as I have fostered them in the past. Thank you for your consideration, I would love to assist you. I have a very open and flexible schedule! I am able to attend to any days and times that best fit your schedule. I am hoping to do this part-time and do not have another job that conflicts. I usually take notes during our introductory meeting or appreciate notes with directions as well. I have always locked up appropriately after check-ins and will send you an update of your pet with a photo.

About: my name is Ryan, and I’m a social worker and work through Rover. I grew up around dogs my entire life, and I currrently have a dachshund mix that I adore and spoil. My goal is to make sure your dogs get the best care possible. Each dog is different, so if you have any special requests to best fit their individualized needs, please let me know. I love taking dogs to the beach, parks, and trails throughout Wilmington. My schedule is very flexible. Just let me know what works best for your schedule. And I will make sure I’m able to help with services. I make sure dogs feel comfortable and at home. If I notice they are stressed, I will sit with them for a few minutes and then take them on a walk to get some energy out. If there’s anything specific your dog likes to feel more comfortable, let me know and I’ll take that into consideration. I will also give them my 100 percent undivided attention and all the pets and belly rubs they want!

“Excellent. This was our first time using Rover and we were concerned because we'd be letting someone into our home, with our dogs, who you had not met and while we were not there. Alissa was great. She showed up on time each day, communicated with us through the visit, was very attentive to the furballs, made sure they had potty time, water and plenty of attention. We will definitely be booking with her again.”
