“Carissa was a great choice for looking after our cat when we were on vacation. We especially appreciated that on a day when our street was blocked off, she tried twice to reach oue house. And she sends lots of pictures!”
“Kayla was absolutely amazing with my dogs and they loved her! She was super timely with updates and felt confident my dogs were being well cared for. We will absolutely book her again in the future!”
About: I am very comfortable with pets, I grew up with two dogs and a family that often rescued and fostered animals. I recently adopted a cat and am equally a cat and dog lover. I have petsit on and off throughout my education and currently take care of a dog with seizures so am comfortable with giving medication. I’m excited to meet your adorable pet! I am currently doing prerequisite courses before applying to a graduate program, so I am filling my schedule with odd jobs and am very available throughout the week. I am unable to host dogs in my apartment, but am happy to come over and take your dog for a walk or check in on your pet!
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and I currently have 2 cats. I dog sat a family with 3 dogs and 2 cats multiple times this past year. I have more compassion with animals than anything else on the planet. I will make sure to take extra good care of your cats or dogs. Mondays I am completely free at anytime starting September 1st. Tuesdays I am free in the am before 7:30, 12:30-2:30pm and anytime after 7pm. Wednesdays and Thursdays can be tricky. I’m free anytime after 6pm on those 2 days. Fridays I’m free anytime after 1pm. I’m also decently free on the weekends. I take care of my cats daily within our own home. I also took care of a family with 3 dogs and 2 cats multiple time this past year.
“We have had Joanna look after both of our cats three or four times now. She does a fantastic job, follows instructions to the letter and communicates quickly! Definitely will keep using her in the future”
About: I have owned and taken care of dogs, cats, and birds my entire life. I currently have 3 cats, 2 of which I have raised since they were kittens. I have experience taking care of animals of all ages and sizes, and I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. Whether your pet needs active playtime, calm companionship, or specialized care, you can count on me to treat them like family. I am a recent college graduate currently searching for full-time roles, which means I have complete availability every day to look after your pet. I am available for check-ins, house-sitting, or walks every day of the week, and my timing can be flexible depending on what you need. My goal is to make pets feel as safe and comfortable as possible in their own environment. Whether I'm house-sitting, stopping by for a drop-in visit, or going on a walk, I always follow the pet's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, playtime, walks, and any medication needs. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, energy level, and preferences so I can give them the attention and care they deserve. While in a client’s home, I’m respectful, clean, and communicative. I treat your space the same way I would want someone to treat mine. I also keep you updated with messages, pictures, or anything else you'd like, so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: We currently have a 3 y/o black lab as well as a 3 y/o cat. Both of us have been around dogs our whole lives. We truly love caring for furry friends and can’t wait to meet with you! We work from home, so your pet will have our full attention throughout the day. Care, playtime, and walks easily fit into our daily routine. Although we live in an apartment, it’s spacious with three bedrooms and plenty of room for your pet to feel comfortable. Pets are welcome on the furniture—we want them to feel right at home!
About: I have lived with a pet throughout my entire life. I have lived with dogs ranging from 4 lbs up to 130 lbs! I currently have two dogs and two cats. I have experience volunteering at different humane societies and rescues. I have gained the trust of my friends and family to walk, feed, bathe, and watch their pets. I am working full time, but available on weekday nights and completely open on most weekends. We go on frequent walks, and get lots of play time and cuddle time in. I live in a townhome with a lot of greenways to walk nearby. I have four animals in the house: two little dogs and two cats.
“As always I was completely reassured my pups would receive the absolute best care from Courtney! I never have to worry when she is with them. She is communicative and sends lots of photos. I wish I could leave 1000 stars!”
“My 3 cats Received excellent care. They were fed watered and 3 Litterbox scooped every other day. I also received text every day that She was there to let me know everything was good. I came home to food in the cats bowls and plenty of water available for them. It was a great piece of mind while I was on vacation. I would highly recommend Abrielle and rover app for all of your animal care. again, Thank you.”
“Ashley was the ideal pet sitter! She was caring and informative and took lots of photos for us. Ashley truly provided us with peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely book again!”
“Katherine is the best! She takes wonderful care of my little pup Bella, and I love that she makes time to play tug of war with her, which is Bella’s favorite past time! You will not be disappointed having Katherine as a pet sitter!”
About: Just name what you want done and i’ll have it done. I’m athletic, and can keep up with whatever pace you dog prefers. Multiple dogs is not a problem, just tell me things like this beforehand. Also size does not matter. - Can run with dogs - Can dog sit - Can follow dog-care instructions Monday > 3-5:30 Tuesday > 3-7:30 Wednesday > 3-5:30 Thursday > 3-5:30 Friday > 3-5:30 Saturday > Might have a soccer game, can discuss Sunday > Might have a soccer game, can discuss Above is the schedule that best works for me. I play sports and have practice after 5:30 Monday Wednesday and Thursday and possibly games on weekends, but usually not both days Saturday and Sunday so i could possibly be available.
About: I have lovingly taken care of dogs for 30+ years, from my own furry family members to those of neighbors, friends and family. My husband and I relocated from NY to NC for better quality of life spent in nature with our dog who goes on daily walks, hikes and frequent fetch sessions due to the ability we both have to work from home. I love EVERY dog I meet and would love to meet and take care of more of them from walks to drop-in visits and boarding. Here for all the cuddles, playing, walking, medicine administering, and anything your furry family member needs and will treat them like my own 😍😍. I work from home with a flexible schedule and have availability for drop in visits or home stays where your furry family member will get allllll the love and attention they deserve! Pets deserve all the love and activity and I am more than happy to provide both via fetch, walks through your neighborhood or local trails (your preference!) belly rubs, potty breaks and beyond. Though my personal backyard is only partially fenced (for now) my own dog adores her harness being hooked up to a 60ft leash for playtime with herself, me, or all our neighborhood doggy friends. My dog LOVES other dogs and would love to play with yours or cuddle inside if your dog is open. If you crate train, I am happy to enforce whatever you need!

She loves my dogs as if they are her own, and I couldn’t ask for more!”
