Sarah confirmed everything in advance and asked great questions so we were on the same page. She was on time and took great care of my two dogs while we were away for the whole day. She is kind and friendly. We will use her again!

Lillie took care of our dogs during a wedding, drove them to the venue when planned, even dressed them and kept them for us until the end of the celebration. She was reliable, easy to connect with the dogs and handle them. She was creative when problems presented themselves, I cannot praise her enough!

Megan was an absolute PRO! Not only did she take perfect care of our dog Duck, she went above and beyond and took care of scooping cat litter that we told her we could take care of when we got home. She gave us lots of updates during her stay, administered medicine to our dog, and made sure everyone got play time, plenty of food and water, and snuggles. Megan is the best! If you are looking for someone to make sure your pets are taken care of while you are away, look no further.

About: I love all animals and taking care of them is a dream job. I live in the Franklin NC area year around. I was raised with Boxers and have been a dog momma for 10 rescues. I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.

About: I have always loved animals both dogs and cats. I have lots of patience with puppies and training all the way to senior dogs with limited mobility. I am skilled in understanding the personality of dogs and cats and how to best adapt my energy to make sure they are attuned to in a soft, gentle way. I am fit and in shape for those puppy and energetic dogs that need a longer walk as well. Would be honored to take care of your fur babies while you are away. I have had dogs for over 30+years :) Available to help your pet 7 days of the week! For House Sitting - I can be there the full amount of time as I work remote making sure I can take your fur baby out at all intervals throughout the day! I offer sweet energy to meet and greet your pet so that it feels comfortable going as slow as needed for your pet to feel comfortable. I am tuned in to your pets needs and respond with love and affection.

About: I would love to take care of medium and smaller dog breeds.(Well behaved large dogs are fine too).I am also well knowledgable on how to take care of cats and kittens.(they are my speciality):) Keeping animals healthy and happy in their own home is what it's all about.Because I have a large fur family of my own,I know what i would want in a petsitter .i would want to feel confident in leaving home and have someone who really enjoys spending time with them. You will get updates and pictures daily I can provide Senior care and give medicines. I can provide references outside of Rover from other pet parents. I am a stay at home wife.All of my kids are grown and flown the nest so I am free to pet sit most anytime. I would rather care for your pet in your home where they are most comfortable and stress free.I will follow your instructions on daily care.

Tia did an absolutely outstanding job caring for my three German Shepherds. Anyone who has experience with the breed knows they require attentive, confident handling; and Tia delivered exactly that without missing a beat. My pups were fed on schedule, exercised regularly, and taken out for bathroom breaks consistently throughout their stay. Clearly, Tia took their routine seriously and treated them with genuine care. What really set Tia apart was her communication. She sent photos of the pups playing outside, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She also asked thoughtful follow-up questions about their care before I even had to bring anything up. This kind of proactive attention to detail tells you a lot about a sitter's professionalism and dedication. I will absolutely be booking with Tia again and would recommend her without hesitation to any pet owner, especially those with large or high-energy breeds. My fur babies were in great hands!

Leigh was such a pleasure to work with! From the moment we met her we knew we had met the person that had the capacity and skill to care for our furry companions. Leigh communicated with us daily and she was great on letting us know her plan for each day. She took our dog Tig on several adventures and even took our cat outside for a look around. We could tell by the daily photos she sent that the animals felt very relaxed and cared for. Our house felt very settled and clean when we returned and it felt nice to come back and reconnect with the animals. I would highly recommend Leigh and I definitely plan on booking with her again. If you’re looking for a great person to work with, book Leigh! You will not be disappointed.

About: Growing up I’ve always owned dogs and I love taking care of my own dog who has high needs. I love walking dogs and always enjoy seeing new dogs roaming about. I have a very open schedule, and that is why I was ready to start with Rover to kind of control my own scheduling. My week is open for plenty of dog walks or dropping visits for pets. I am excited to start working with you. I have one dog and two cats. I walk my dog at least five times a day. She is a terrier and needs extra exercise. I have two cats who are indoor. I change their litter box weekly and scoop it daily. Keeping a good hygiene for cats is extremely important for your home so I value that very much. My pets names are Oreo for my dog Millie and pumpkin on my cats.

About: I started working in boarding kennels straight out of high school 13 years ago. I did that until I got into dog grooming 6 years ago. I’m looking to get back into the passion of caring for all sorts of dogs not just cutting their hair now that I’m home full time. I have experience in administering medication, and any special dietary needs. I have a two year old daughter, Laeton. She’s in daycare during the week periodically & My availability is pretty flexible. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies soon 🤗🥰🐶🐾 I am a stay at home mom, looking to make some extra money, i have stepped out of working a full time job to be home with my two year old daughter because daycare is unfortunately unreliable so , I'm home about 80 percent of the time. I will feed / water them twice a day walks 4x a day. I have a field beside my house , I live in the country. I am also available to pick up dogs and take them on walks , I’m all about taking pictures so I’ll definitely blow your phone up with pictures while your baby is in my care.

About: I always have loved pets! When I was growing up everyone around me wanted me to walk/care/ or watch their dog / pet Because they knew I would exceed their needs and more! I am also a mom of two under two so besides pets I also love kids! And all of my pets are kid and pet friendly:)! Thanks for looking at my page! Hope to see you and your furry pal soon :) I’m a very flexible individual! And I am always willing to adjust anything to fit your furry friends daily routine! Im always willing to go out of my way for any pet! :) I’m also a stay at home mom so my schedule is basically open anytime because I’m always home and available! I don’t have a fenced back yard, but I’m always monitoring any pets that are outside on leash. and it’s a very moderate household. We are usually doing something outdoorsy or going on some fun adventure! And we will always exceed your pets needs and adjust our household to just that while your pet stays. :)
