Pet Sitting in Cove City

About: Hi! I am a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for high-energy breeds. I currently share my home with a Red Heeler and a Goldendoodle, both of whom require significant daily exercise, mental stimulation, and attention. This has given me strong skills in managing active dogs and creating structured, enriching routines. My professional background includes working as an EMT and now as a behavior technician, which has shaped my calm, attentive, and safety-first approach. I’m trained to stay level-headed in emergencies, read behavior cues, and provide patient, consistent care. I’m also an avid surfer, so I’m naturally active and love the outdoors. I’m using Rover as a side gig and I’m always open to long visits, overnight stays, and extended care. I genuinely love all animals and treat every pet like family. You can trust that your pet will receive unconditional love, reliable attention, and excellent care while with me. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule. I can fit your pet’s needs into my day and I’m happy to work around your schedule. I’m also available on weekends, plus open to long visits and overnight stays. I live in an apartment complex with a big fenced area for the dogs to play in. There is also trails by the apartment that I walk. Your pet will get care, and exercise all while having the time of their lives!!

About: I will love your dog as if it were my own. I have 2 springer spaniels that love to play. I can give special care for a dog that needs meds or has a special diet. I have had fur babies in the past that require special attention. I work a full time job out of my home so taking in dogs during the week is super easy as I’m home all day everyday. We have underground fencing otherwise your dog will go on a tie out. We have 2 entrances that can accommodate. I can also take crate trained dogs. If you don’t want to bring your kennel we have one to use as well.

About: Hi guys! My name is Nicolle Bravo and I look forward to caring for your precious fur babies! I’ve spent my entire life around all kinds of animals, caring for them, administering medication such as insulin and shots, and even just providing some much needed love and affection. I’ve had experience with cats, dogs, pigs, bunnies, ferrets, birds, snakes, and lizards. No task is too much when it comes to our bundles of joy, so please feel free to contact me if you have any special requests as I know from personal experience how much stress can arise from trying to find someone who you can trust to take care of your babies beyond just dropping in to provide basic necessities. I hope to meet you and your lovely ball of fur soon! I currently work full time as a caregiver with a man with autism therefore I am only available before 10 or after 6 Tuesday through Friday! Mondays is before 10 and after 5! My weekend schedule varies . In home I care for pets just as if they were my own! I do stick to their feeding schedules / medication schedules to prevent any extra anxiety. They will definitely have plenty of play time as our pets are extremely friendly and love to have fun. We also have a fenced in yard in case you’re sweet pea is a little more on the adventurous side!

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs in my life. I worked as a vet assistant and I’m now working towards a certification of vet assistant. I have one cat and one lizard. I had 12 dogs before and took care of them all. Ranged from chihuahuas to pit bulls. I’m currently working in the military. And I live animals very very much. I have a cat named Gray and a bearded dragon named Shmoop. I would have to go to clients house to care for the animals, as I live in apartments at the moment. I would need to know how owner does certain things for the animals.

About: I have taken care of old dogs, young dogs, and family dogs, multiple animals at one time. I have cared for cats and fish. I would like the opportunity to watch a chicken… I currently have a very flexible schedule which allows me to best care for your animals. I have a regularly consistent schedule- but this gig is something fun I enjoy on the side. I have a night front and back yard. I have a cat ready to keep your animal on their toes! My house is certainly animal friendly- we can speak more about the specifications your pet needs!

“Zaria did great with my loud 2yo GSD and my little cavalier. It was a bit last minute but she met me prior to caring for them to get all of the instructions for them. I felt so comfortable while being away. She messaged me and sent great pics of my two while I was away. Happy I found a great sitter in the area for when I need it again!”

About: Hey there! My name is Ravyn. I’m a military spouse, and a stay at home mom to our 1 year old boy. We have 3 hyper doggies of our own at home who love and adore our baby. With my flexible lifestyle, I’m able to be fully available for drop ins and dog walking all day long, whatever time you need, for however long you need. I’m quick, attentive, friendly, and great with communication. I’m very well experienced with hyper, high maintenance, puppies, as well as giving medication to elderly dogs. I’ve had dogs my whole life, all different types, and sizes, and I always adjust to their wants and needs. Can’t wait to meet your pup(s) and form a relationship to make them feel comfortable while you’re gone! My lifestyle being an SAHM and a military spouse gives me the flexibility to meet your drop in needs. 6am-5pm my son will be with me (who loves dogs!) and anytime after 5pm it will be just me. I’ve had dogs of my own who have struggled with anxieties, anxiousness, and alertness. So gaining their trust from the beginning is very important to me to form a strong foundation with them. I adjust my sitting based on their behavior, I can be sweet if they need love, and I can be stern if they need structure. I can also water your plants, check your mail, and make sure your house is kept in order while I’m doing my drop in visit to take any added stress off of you while your gone.

“Christina was great! The dogs loved her. Thanks!”

“Areaonia took good care of my older dog and followed instructions. I feel I can trust her to keep my girl while I am gone.”

“Brittany was fantastic! Great communication, reliable, and punctual. Would definitely use her again.”

About: Living in the OBX, Willing to travel, see new places! I want to help care for your dog in your home because I believe pets are happiest in their home setting. I never boarded my dog, always traveled with him or had a family member stay. I'm excited to meet all your fur family and see some new places. If you live near trails, i particularly enjoy a hiking dog. I will travel for overnight care up to a few hours. I also visit NH regularly. Im working on something personal right now which allows me the flexibility to travel and dog sit. I prefer the beach, mountains, lakes, quiet over cities. I'm a kiteboarder and hiker, so i'm partial to areas I can explore with these activities. I always follow the household schedule and your pets preferences. During my time in your home, I will leave it generally cleaner than I found it. I'm comfortable traveling to dog parks, trails etc with a dog or two in my car.. I'm happy to keep your plants happy, enjoying a green thumb.

“Really really good!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old. I love to walk dogs, throw balls, and pet cats and dogs. Feeding and walking on owners schedule. I can always work around your pet’s schedule. I’m flexible and available for holidays and weekends. I am happy with longer stays and getting to know your pet. I provide daily walks on the pets schedule.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with years of experience, I treat each dog like they’re my own, giving your four-legged family member personalized care, comfort, and attention—so you can feel at ease, knowing they’re in a loving home. I currently have a full-time job, but it still leaves me plenty of time to take care of and attend to your pets. In addition to boarding, I also offer walking services, house check-ups, and more. I’m available every holiday and weekend, ensuring your pets receive the attention and care they deserve whenever you need it most. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment to ensure both the pet and owner feel secure. Here’s how I approach each: In My Home: • Safety: My home is pet-proofed to remove any potential hazards, such as exposed wires, toxic plants, and small objects that could be swallowed. I also create separate areas for pets that need quiet spaces, ensuring they can feel safe and relaxed. • Trust: I maintain consistent feeding schedules, regular walks, and offer plenty of attention, ensuring pets feel secure and loved. I also keep owners updated with photos or texts, providing peace of mind. • Environment: I offer a warm, inviting space with plenty of room for pets to play and rest. My home is clean, free of clutter, and equipped with comfortable bedding, toys, and a designated outdoor area for play. In Client’s Home: • Safety: I follow all instructions from the owner closely regarding feeding, medication, and specific care routines. I also do a safety check of the home, ensuring gates are locked, harmful substances are out of reach, and the environment is secure. • Trust: Building trust is key. I arrive on time, follow the owner’s rules, and communicate regularly with updates. This builds rapport with both the pet and the owner. • Environment: I maintain the pet’s usual routine to minimize stress. This includes adhering to familiar walk paths, playtime schedules, and sleeping arrangements in their own home, creating a smooth, stress-free experience. This balance of safety, trust, and comfort helps me ensure that each pet is well cared for, whether in my home or theirs.

“Kyndall was so flexible and accommodating when I needed to change my booking multiple times!”
