About: Hi! Im Ivy! I’m the type of sitter who learns your dog’s quirks, celebrates zoomies, sends way too many pictures, and makes sure they feel loved while you’re away. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog behind, so my goal is to make them feel like they’re on their own little vacation while you’re away. My home is calm, safe, and full of love. Whether your pup loves long naps, playing, cuddling on the couch, or exploring outside, I’ll match their routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. You’ll receive plenty of photo and video updates, so you’ll never have to wonder how your best friend is doing. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family because that’s exactly how I’d want someone to care for mine. I welcome dogs of all personalities and will happily work with their feeding schedules, medications, favorite toys, and routines to help them feel right at home. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I am currently doing this full time. Your pup will have round the clock care. I am a great option for the rowdy ones! The senior ones! & the ones who need medical assistance. I live in an apartment. The community has 2 dog parks, and a large neighborhood park right outside my door. Depending on your preference we will get in exercise at either at the dog park or going for a neighborhood stroll. I have the most pleasant of hosts— Koda bear. He is pictured in my profile photo and an angel to any friends who come to visit. (Not at all food, toy, or mama jealous)

“He did an excellent job! Dogs were very content when I returned. Obvious in their actions that they were well cared for. Would like to book him for regular mid day walks,”

“Nicole takes Olive on the best walks and takes care of our pup Olive! She’s very communicative and keeps us well informed. Olive always comes back happy and well exercised. Highly recommend!”

“Amber did an amazing job walking Gungi! She was reliable, friendly, and made sure Gungi got the exercise and attention he needed. I could tell he was happy and well-cared for after their walks. I’ll definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog walker!”

“Enzo always arrived. Great consistency. However, doesn’t close his trips so it appears that he walked the dogs much longer than he did. And not sure if the map from rover is accurate but if it is, he walked them like 500 yards.”

About: I’m new to Rover, but not new to pet care. I’ve cared for many pets over the years and have additional reviews and testimonials from other platforms that I’m always happy to share so you can feel fully confident leaving your pet in my care. I love knowing pet owners can truly relax while they’re away, feeling confident their fur baby is safe, cared for, and genuinely loved. I provide daily updates and photos so you can stay connected and see exactly how they’re doing. I enjoy caring for pets of all kinds, from playful puppies and senior dogs to shy cats and curious little explorers. I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and meet them where they are. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, snuggles, feeding routines, litter care, and giving medication. I’m especially patient with shy or slow to warm up pets, and I make sure high energy pets get the activity and stimulation they need. I keep routines consistent and treat your home with the same care and respect, so you can fully relax knowing everything is in attentive, loving hands. I am pretty flexible both in my daily and weekly schedule and willing to work with you to accommodate your needs the best i can (: I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routines as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications so your pets feel secure and well cared for. I spend quality time with them, whether that means going for walks, playing, or just giving them extra love and company. I also make sure your home feels cared for while you are away. That means keeping things tidy, bringing in mail or packages if needed, watering plants, and always leaving everything just as I found it. I like to send photo updates so you can see how your pets are doing and feel reassured while you are gone.

“Keegan was great! She took excellent care of my dogs while I was out of town, made sure they got their walks, and even brought in my packages. Everything was easy and I came home to happy pups!”

Kendra J.

“Just one week into having Max (and his fiancé) take care of my two dogs and I’m already so impressed. Max and Jen took the time to get to know my dogs and asked tons of questions prior to starting weekly walks. They are both incredibly communicative and timely, send pictures and updates for each walk, and have been extremely patient with my female pup, who can be shy around new people. I will definitely turn to Max and Jen for any future dog sitting needs!”

About: Hi my name is Joseph! I grew up in a veterinary hospital being surrounded by all breeds and sizes of cats and dogs. I have 7+ years of pet sitting experience for NC State Vet Students and Faculty and currently work for a dog boarding and daycare facility in the Noda area. My background has given me hands-on experience with feeding, exercise, enrichment, and providing attentive compassionate care for every pet. I’m currently working Monday - Friday between 7am-11am (break) 2:30-7pm. On Saturday/Sunday the hours move around alittle but I remain to have a 3-4 hour mid day break for the opportunity to have midday checkups/care. My usual Check-in times when pet sitting have been 10-30 minutes before 6:30-7, 20-40 minutes between 11:30-2, and 20-30 minutes after 7:30. Depending on age, temper and health of the dog the visits can be rearranged for later or earlier visits if needed. With the circumstances of my apartment complex, I do in-house visit of my client instead of having the dog at my home. When arriving at my clients home, I like to first take the dog outside and make sure they use the bathroom. I will update the owner immediately if I see any issues with the pets stool (ie. Blood, Diarrhea, etc). After I like to feed depending on instructed time, or if no meal/ walk the dog around the owners yard or complex if possible. Before leaving I always make sure there is plenty of water and that at least one happy photo. Willing to administer medications in pill form. Also, will always follow clients instructions to a avoid any confusion or accidents.

“Montana was an excellent communicator during my trip away from home. I had some continuous flight delays during this time and Montana was very understanding and her flexibility to assist with some more pup time put my mind at ease. One key factor in me wanting Montana was that my Pyr has some serious anxiety issues and requires some patience due to him being stubborn at times. She is very patient and my Pyr just gravitates to Montana with ease. Highly recommend!!!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life, primarily large dogs up until end of life, as well as cats in the last 6 years. I’ve got extensive experience with these guys, and my love for these animals runs deep! I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is very flexible for visiting or playing with your pets! The best times to schedule me are between 8am and 8pm, but I am open to other hours with planning in advance. :) I have a screened in yard, as well as 2 crates for small dogs and cats, comfy beds, and toys for them to play with! I also have treats and a dedicated space within my home for them to relax in.

“Averi is always reliable and quick to respond. She only had to cancel one time with us as she was attacked by another dog and needed to tend to her own health. She let us know as soon as it happened that she needed to cancel so we could rearrange.”

About: Passionate pet care professional, carrying years of experience taking care of the needs of animals, especially dogs. I've had a Chinese Crested Powder Puff (aged 15), a Chipoo Chinese Crested mix (aged 17), and multiple Jack Russell/Chihuahua/Shih Tzu mixes. I have some experience looking after cats as well! I am able to take care of pretty much all their essential needs. I can also provide playtime for pets under my supervision. I ensure that they are in a safe space and away from any hazards. I'm good at providing updates, with pictures included, so you know that your pet is doing well while you are away! I have a somewhat flexible schedule. I'm not too busy during the week, so my availability to provide care for pets have been pretty good. I'm very attentive when it comes to pets. You can rest assured that your furry friend will have a safe environment to running around and play in. Multiple pets that engage in playtime with each other will be supervised while under my care to mitigate any aggression that may come up during this activity.

“Tricia is the BEST! She always takes our dog for extra long walks (sometimes even to breweries or coffee shops, which our social pup LOVES). She is our go-to Rover sitter!!!”

“Great with communication and with the pups! Thanks again!”
