Kristin did an Amazing job taking care of our pups. She is truly an animal lover. Our pups were well taken care of and she kept us updated every visit with photos and little summary. It’s very comforting knowing your pups are in good hands when you are away! Thank you Kristin.

About: I’ve lived with animals my entire life. From when I was a child all the way up to college, and beyond. I’m very comfortable with all sorts of furry friends! I work Sunday-Thursday at my main job, but the most is 8 hours a day. I am free most Friday’s and Saturday’s, and I am open to discussing other days/times throughout the week, impending my main work schedule. I provide in-home pet sitting to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. When I am there, I follow their normal routines, including feeding, walks, medication needs, and playtime, while giving them plenty of attention and care. I treat every pet and home with respect and I am more than happy to provide updates so owners can have peace of mind while away.

Jordan was truly fantastic. I had her drop in a couple times a day on my dog while I was out of town. My dog is a shar pei and naturally very suspicious of strangers, but Jordan was very patient with her and managed to earn her trust. She sent 3-4 pics with every drop in and I could see that my dog was doing well and trusting her more and more every day. Will definitely recommend and ask for her help again!

About: I have spent most of my 36 years caring for animals of all species. As a pet owner of 7 fur babies, one quilled and several feathered friends, I put pet care at the top of my list. As a business owner, working from home I have plenty of time to devote to committing to caring for your pets. My schedule is flexible. Every pet and pet owner has their own unique preferences and needs. I will care for someone else’s pets following specific instructions requested. Beyond a provided guideline, I will pay attention to each pets body language and environmental need. I will provide safe and thorough assistance.

About: I raised my Shih Tzu from 3 months up until I lost him to kidney disease on 9/11/2024. I walked him on a regular basis except rainy days (he hated getting wet lol), he was potty trained and free to roam the house while I was not home. Everyone ( family, friends, neighbors) knew how much I loved and cared for him. When he was in his last days from kidney failure, I stayed by his side until the end. I kept his routine the same. I pushed him in his stroller when he could not walk anymore. Administered him an IV daily to keep him hydrated when he barely ate and drank. I laid with him and held him until he let me know it was time for him to go to that Rainbow Bridge. As a newly retired person, I have plenty of time to give your furry friend(s) all the love, walks, and attention they need and deserve. Whether in my home or a clients, I provide a comfortable environment with meals, walks, playtime and companionship. I follow their routines as instructed to keep them happy and comfortable.

About: I am fresh out of high school and just turned 18. I’ve been looking forward to being able to join Rover as a sitter for 5 years. I love animals and have a bond with most. I have 2 dogs, a German Shepherd and a Chihuahua. I am also a volunteer with the No Kill Cat Rescue. And am always the go-to person for all my friends and family who need me to watch their pets! I have school from 9 am to 4 pm so i am free to work from 4:10 pm to 10 pm! Feel free to book me then! I love animals and i try my best to follow every single rule that an owner gives me. I love training dogs a bit to get their mind sharper and i love to pet and brush them if needed.

We are SO appreciative of Max! He is quick to communicate and sends great updates. We recently went out of the country and I was pretty nervous about our cats — knowing Max was taking care of them really eased my mind (he handled cat house accidents, mail, and some other random/special pet requests which I so appreciated). We’ll continue to book him as much as he’s available! Thanks, Max!

About: Hi, I’m Jillian. I currently own 2 dogs. A hound shepherd and mini dachshund beagle. Growing up we had a chocolate lab. Later on the family adopted a shepherd mix and then a husky. I also used to have an adorable little hedgehog and 2 birds. I currently work full time during the week and the occasional Saturday. Depending on distance I will be available for your pets for a mid day check in. I have experience at the Humane Society of Eastern North Carolina; walking/playing with dogs and feeding cats. I’ve also worked at an exotic animal farm (It’s a Zoo Life) taking care of the animals and assisting tours. I’m comfortable giving medications. Both of our family dogs take daily meditations as well as my hound shepherd. The husky is disabled, has had many surgeries and sometimes needs help getting around. I’m willing to pick up and drop off, bathe, walk and entertain your animals. I will also house sit, water plants or check mail if needed. I love puppies and kittens and I’m willing to stay overnight if needed. Exotic pets welcome! I currently work one full time job. Durning the week I have a break mid day. No breaks on the weekends but shorter hours. Depending on the distance of the address I can stop in on my break as well as before and after work. I like to stick to house rules of the owner. Please let me know specific things you would like me to oblige by or things to look out for. Otherwise the standard no crewing on people things only their own stuff, no getting on tables or counters, no biting, no pee/poop on furniture, etc.

Jennifer is a great sitter! She takes the time to learn the personalities of my 3 kitties and reports on their behavior during visits. So far all 3 have definitely warmed up to her and enjoy the attention she gives on visits. Jennifer doesn't mind doing a few extra things like giving special food & medicine along with picking up your mail. We just love her!!

I can’t stress how thankful I am to have a thoughtful and reliable cat sitter!

I appreciate the detailed updates, love she gives my cats, and sweet photos she leaves behind. Thanks girl!! 🫶🏽
