She provided me with daily updates as well as plenty of pictures which made my fur baby mama heart so happy. ❤️ My kitty is very shy and nervous around new people and Sarahbelle made him feel comfortable - in all his pictures he was having tons of fun playing!”

About: I’m a caring, dependable, and patient pet lover who treats every dog like they’re part of the family. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, and I’m especially comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and pups who need a little extra patience, attention, and love. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a very flexible work schedule, which allows me to provide reliable care for dogs and cats when they need it. I’m dependable, organized, and committed to making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I’m happy to come to your home to care for your pets in their familiar and comfortable environment. I’ll follow their normal routine, provide plenty of love and attention, and make sure they feel safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: My experience begins with caring for my own pets and my family's pets. I owned 2 female Lionhead rabbits as a child who I still reminisce about to this day. During this time I also afforded the opportunity to care for a close friend's male Holland Lop rabbit! In addition to this, my parents had their own chickens that I adored; I cleaned their coop, fed them daily, and would pet them for hours. My experience with dogs is quite extensive: I've washed, walked, and administered medication for elderly dogs as well as young ones, cared for ones with anxiety, played with energetic farm dogs for hours, walked strong ones who pull at the sight of any person & animal, and walked ones who can't get close to other people & animals. My experience with cats include feral, semi feral, and house cats. I've repeatedly given overnight care for 7 semi-feral cats who's daily feeding schedule was strict & specific, one of whom required medication. In that same house was an elderly dog who had his own, separate, regimented, feeding & walking times (and demanded lots of love that I was happy to give!) Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle as someone who enjoys spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, whether that means multiple daily visits, overnight stays, or extended drop-in sessions. I prioritize reliability and punctuality, understanding that pets thrive on routine and consistency! I'm happy to accommodate early morning or late evening visits, and I always provide photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and well-cared for. My availability is generally open throughout the week, and I'm comfortable committing to both short-term and longer-term bookings. I build my schedule around your pet's needs, not the other way around. Safety and trust are my top priorities in every pet care situation. In your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect: cleaning up after myself, securing doors and gates, following your specific instructions carefully, and maintaining your pet's established routines to minimize stress and uphold any training that has already been given to your pet(s). I'm attentive to potential hazards and ensure pets are supervised appropriately based on their temperament and needs. I follow all feeding guidelines precisely, administer medications as directed, and watch closely for any changes in behavior or health that might need attention. Due to my training as a Registered Behavioral Therapist for human, I keep detailed notes and communicate openly with pet parents, sending regular updates and photos. Whether caring for pets in your home or mine, I create a calm, secure environment where animals feel comfortable and safe. For pets staying in my home (if applicable), I ensure a pet-proofed space with separate areas for different animals if needed, and I never leave pets unsupervised in potentially stressful situations. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my first concern.

About: I have looked after pets of many family members and friends for most of my life, including older pets that require medications and certain accommodations. I consider myself very patient and attentive to pets' needs. I work freelance with flexible hours, so my availability is pretty much wide open. I do not currently have pets of my own, so I am able to focus solely on my client's pet(s). I am happy to bring the attention and comfort to your pets that they need. That includes walking dogs frequently, playing often, maintaining diet and clean drinking water, picking up poos, and cleaning up messes! I am also happy to accommodate on overnight stays pets who may want to sleep in the bed or require night/early morning care.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old. Taking care of pets is something I truly enjoy and do with love and attention. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and bathe their dogs for years. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, and I treat every pet like part of the family. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I enjoy caring for animals and easily make time in my routine to walk, feed, and give them attention. I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible. I make sure they’re fed on time, walked regularly, and given lots of love and attention. Whether in my home or the client’s, I keep the environment safe, clean, and comfortable.

“Mallory stayed with our two kitties and she was amazing!! She was very responsive, sent lots of pics of playtime and cuddling, and even walked our cat for us (he's a crazy bengal...don't ask). She took great care of our home and went above and beyond. Definitely would recommend her to watch your babies. Thank you Mallory <3”

About: Hi there! I am a college student and lifelong animal lover who enjoys spending time with pets. I currently work as a Canine Coach at Dogtopia Raleigh-Northwest and have several years of professional experience as a dog walker and pet sitter with two trusted pet care companies. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, so I’m comfortable with everything from energetic pups who need a long walk to relaxed pets who just want some company and attention. Whether you need a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, I always make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets, I treat them like they’re my own. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs and routine. I’m also more than happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands while you’re away. I truly love what I do and would love the opportunity to care for your furry friend! I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule and am available for morning, evening, and weekend care. I work part-time at a dog daycare and attend a couple of afternoon classes during the week, but I take extra care to plan my schedule so I can still provide reliable visits, walks, and attentive care for my clients. As my Rover client base grows, I plan to open up even more availability to dedicate additional time to Rover bookings. I always follow your instructions and stick to your pet’s usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I enter your home as directed, lock up behind me, and respect any off-limit areas. I do a quick walkthrough to check for any messes or accidents, and I pay close attention to your pet's behavior to ensure they feel secure and cared for.

About: I have experience owning dogs since I was a child. I also have many years experience of small animal, cat, and reptile ownership. I have worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility as well as our local Humane Society. I work a normal job 9 to 6 Monday through Friday. With traveling being common over the weekends, I am available anytime as my weekends are completely free. I will take care of clients pets in their home using the guidelines they set. I would prefer no pets in my home unless I’ve gotten to know the animal, as I have a dog and a cat of my own.

“Nakyung was extremely communicative and made the process very simple and stress-free. She provided regular updates and pictures of our cats. I would definitely hire her again!”

About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve grown up around animals and truly believe they are family, not just pets. I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I’ve cared for pets with all kinds of personalities and at different stages of life, including my senior dog Jacob (11). Having an older dog has taught me to be patient, notice the little things, and make sure pets are comfortable and cared for as they get older. I’ve also worked with my dog Atlas, who has had some behavioral challenges. Helping him over the years has taught me that every animal is different and that trust, consistency, and patience go a long way. I enjoy taking the time to understand each pet and what helps them feel safe and happy. Since I have a multi-pet household with dogs, cats, and birds, I’m comfortable with different routines and different types of care. I know every pet has their own personality, habits, and needs. The biggest thing that sets me apart is that I truly care about the animals I look after. I don’t just show up to feed them—I want to build a connection with them, make them feel comfortable, and give them the same care and love I would want someone to give my own pets. Pet care is a part of my everyday routine. Every day, I feed my three dogs, two cats, and two parakeets, make sure they always have fresh water, and spend time playing with and caring for them. My dogs get regular walks and outdoor time, and I love taking them on hikes whenever I can. My cats get plenty of attention, playtime, and enrichment, and I make sure their litter boxes stay clean. I also care for my parakeets by cleaning their cage, refreshing their food and water, and giving them time to interact and explore. Because caring for animals is already part of my daily life, adding your pet to my routine feels. I’ll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and care that I give my own pets. I care for every pet like they are my own because I truly believe pets are family. Every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I love taking the time to understand what makes each one feel safe and happy. At home, I care for my three dogs, Jacob (11), Luna (7), and Atlas (8), my two cats, Stinky (5) and Kiwi (6), and my two parakeets, Suki and Dewy. My dogs get lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and outdoor adventures like walks and hikes. Luna has had some behavioral challenges, which has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and understanding that every animal learns and grows at their own pace. Seeing how much she has improved over the years has shown me how important love and patience are when caring for pets. My cats, Stinky and Kiwi, have completely different personalities, and that’s one of the things I love most about cats. I enjoy playing with them, keeping them entertained, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure they have a comfortable and happy environment. I also have experience caring for my parakeets, Suki and Dewy. I’m comfortable with feeding them, cleaning their cage, changing their water, and making sure they get attention and enrichment. While I haven’t owned larger birds, I’m always willing to learn and make sure I understand each pet’s needs. When caring for your pets in your home, I’ll respect their routine and follow your instructions closely. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, and to give them the same care and attention I give my own pets because I know how much they mean to your family.

About: Hi, my name is Kira. (Preferred name: Chanell) I may appear new to Rover, but I promise this isn’t my first rodeo. Pre Covid I was a sitter here on rover with a close friend of mine. This is MY first solo rover account so I’m open to question if anyone has any reservations about my abilities. I’m a big animal advocate. Since a little girl I’ve always had deep feelings when it came to animals. I believe their feelings matter so much and if you pay close attention they do communicate with us. I’d love to care for your babies while you’re away. I’m here to help in anyway I can & provide peace of mind for you & them. It’s more than a gig. It’s my life’s goal to make a difference. One pet at a time. I work M-T and my weekends are always free. I’m very into fitness and getting moving. Caring for your fur baby would be a great addition to my routine. I want your fur baby to be as comfortable as possible which is why I currently only provide drop-in visits & walks. I want to keep them in their world instead of trying to pull them into mine. I adapt to their space so that they can continue to feel safe and secure.

“Amber is awesome! She took great care of our dogs Quincy and Shiloh while we were out of town. She sent lots of picture updates which we greatly appreciated! We would highly recommend Amber for future pet visits.”

Matt P.

“Cameron was fantastic with our kitty while we were out of town. He responded very quickly when I reached to inquire about his availability and continued to be very communicative the entire time we were gone. Provided many pictures and updates. Also, a super chill and friendly person with great vibes. My cat was comfortable around him immediately. I will 100% be booking Cameron again!”

About: I’ve had a lifelong connection with animals and have been caring for them from a very young age. I grew up helping my mom with wildlife rehabilitation and veterinary care for both wild and domestic animals, which gave me hands-on experience with a wide range of species. I’ve helped care for deer, raccoons, skunks, and other wildlife, as well as domestic pets. I’ve also helped raise a wolf-dog and have experience hand-raising animals from infancy through adulthood. These experiences taught me how to read animal behavior, recognize when they’re comfortable or stressed, and adjust my approach to each individual animal. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy building trust with animals and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I just moved to the area and am looking for a flexible job that i’ll be able to transition into going to college with. I currently have a completely open schedule and can accommodate to other people’s needs I take great pride in providing the best care possible for every animal I look after. I treat my own animals like family, and I approach every pet with that same level of patience, attention, love, and respect.
