About: I have grown up with dogs so I am very comfortable around them! From playing fetch and going on runs to cuddles and pets I am more than happy to provide your dog with whatever they need. I know that they need lots of love and attention which I am looking forward to giving them. We have two dogs of our own, Wilbur and Goose, and I wish I could have more! But giving your pets love will do me just fine. If you have any further questions feel free to contact me. I look forward to taking great care of your pets! Luckily, I get to work remotely. This allows me a lot of flexibility of when I am able to provide pet care since I can work around my schedule easily! We are fortunate enough to have a large fenced in back yard for our pups to run freely in! Whenever they are not playing outside, they are inside with me and have the option of napping on their own couch, playing with me, or relaxing in my office.

About: I have had experience with animals my whole life, I had a yellow lab for 15 years and she sadly passed in October. I have an extreme soft spot for animals and love to help anyone out with their fur babies especially because I wish I could have that time back. I am currently a substitute teacher and sadly most of the schools close in summer so I have a very open schedule coming up and now! I spend as much time with them as I can, and I love playing with animals, taking them outside on walks and playing fetch! They are my main priority and I always keep an eye on them.

About: Hi! My husband and I have over 8 years experience with taking care of cats, dogs, small animals, reptiles and amphibians. I’m a passionate animal lover and a dedicated pet caregiver based in North Carolina. In addition to providing pet care through Rover, I am also a volunteer with the SPCA, where I help care for cats and support animal welfare efforts in my community. I have experience caring for cats with a variety of personalities, from playful and social cats to those who are shy or need extra patience and reassurance. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, keeping litter boxes clean, providing enrichment and playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I believe every pet deserves individualized care, attention, and kindness. Whether your cat needs a quiet companion, daily care visits, or extra affection while you’re traveling, I will treat them as if they were my own. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work remotely from home, which allows me to spend most of my day with the pets in my care. Aside from occasional gym visits and errands, I am typically home throughout the day and evening. This means your pet will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention rather than being left alone for long periods. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, medication routines, playtime, and regular check-ins throughout the day. I enjoy a quiet lifestyle and spend much of my free time at home. When I’m not working, I often relax with my cat, enjoy outdoor activities, or go fishing, but I always plan my schedule around the pets in my care. Your cat will stay in a clean, quiet, and pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space to relax, play, and explore. My home is filled with cat toys, scratching posts, cozy resting spots, and enrichment activities designed to keep cats comfortable and entertained. I currently have a friendly and outgoing rescue tabby cat who is well-socialized and enjoys meeting new feline friends. However, I understand that every cat is different. For cats who prefer their own space, I can accommodate gradual introductions and provide separate areas to help them feel safe and comfortable. Safety is always my top priority. I keep a cat-friendly environment and closely supervise all interactions to ensure a stress-free experience for every pet in my care.

About: I’ve had dozens of different animals since I was young. Ranging from farm animals, domestic animals, parrots and reptiles. Medication administration experience and bottle feeding as well. No care details are too extra or complicated. I am open to sitting any type of animal! I am home full time aside from errands with my little ones. I have a mini farm as I call it. Dogs, chickens, cats, ducks and more. I am outside majority of the day. We do love going to the park where my bulldog enjoys the dog area as well, so if you’re ok with it, trips to the park may be part of your pets stay! My farm is not completely fenced in, but I do have a fenced in area attached to the front of the house for the animals with plenty of space! I have a very long gravel driveway away from the main road. I have leads, collars, harnesses and cages if needed. I have baby gates in home if needed as well. My two dogs love everyone, they can just be overly friendly! Our oldest cat’s go outside a lot, so they are usually busy all day. Our youngest cat loves to play with everyone including dogs, but likes to stay inside. My female dog is not spayed, un neutered males will either be supervised or separated at night time.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 16 for friends, family, family friends, etc. I am willing to pet sit for dogs of any age from puppy to senior! I am especially experienced with senior aged, as I have a senior dog of my own! Mostly Summer availability ! I am a college student who is always home for the summer (early May to mid August) ! I am very much a homebody so 9/10 I will be available during the Summer period. My college campus is not far from the triangle area so I am typically available on weekends while I am in college as well. Your pets are my priority when pet sitting so I will follow any instructions given to the best of my ability. If your pet has any accommodations such as needing a diaper/ help going to the bathroom, a specific dietary need, medication, etc, I will gladly take care of them! Keeping your house clean is also important, so any accidents (including barf) are no problem.

About: Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my priority. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I know every dog and cat has their own personality and routine, and I’ll take the time to get to know what makes your pet happiest and most comfortable. I worked as a veterinary assistant for around two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve also pet sat for family and friends over the years, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. My veterinary experience gave me the skills to care for animals safely while being attentive to their individual needs, personalities, and comfort levels. I’m currently a graduate student at UNC and would love to spend some of my time outside of school caring for your pets. I’m responsible, dependable, and excited to give your pet the same love and attention I would want for my own! I’m currently a graduate student, so I’m looking to provide pet care around my school schedule, primarily weekends/long weekends. My schedule can vary throughout the week, but I’m happy to coordinate with you to find times that work for both of us! I will care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I’ll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or other needs. With my previous experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and will always prioritize their safety and well-being.

About: Growing up, I had plenty of cats and dogs, both trained and untrained. I treat fur babies like literal humans, they deserve it. I love to cuddle with animals, play outside, or just be lazy together. I work for myself so I make my own schedule. Therefore, it isn’t hard for me to make arrangements to keep a pet or go and hangout. I have no fur babies as of now (mine recently passed) so you won’t have to worry about your pet being in a fight or hurt by the paws of any animal of mine. My home is on an acre of land with only one neighbor. I have a screened in back porch if the animal loves to sunbathe. I make it a priority to learn any pet I encounter.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
