“Brynn came through for my wife and I on short notice to walk our dogs. We setup a meet and greet less than 24hrs after initial contact which helped a ton. The pups had a great walk on multiple days... We will definitely be contacting Brynn in the future for all of our dog walking/sitting needs!”
About: I grew up with dogs, so I have lots of experience feeding, walking, bathing, etc. Additionally, I watched my neighbors' dogs a lot growing up, so I have experience dog-sitting for others. I also have experience with cats, from multiple moths of cat-sitting a young Maine Coon. I'm working a part-time job, so I have many free hours during the day that I would love to use to help take care of your pets. I will ensure that the pets are in their proper spaces in the home and maintain a safe and clean living space for you and your pets.

About: i’ve had pets for at least 12 years now. i’ve volunteered at the aps shelter to walk and play with dogs and cats. i’ve given medicine to dogs and cats so if your pet needs it i can do it! i’ve rescued baby kittens and had to bottle feed them and give medicine. i’m always available. i currently don’t have a job, just helping out my family now. i’m available from as early as 8 am to whenever. i have 7 pets at my home which i won’t be pet sitting in mine. in my clients home, i will feed, clean up and play with your pet. i’m very trustworthy. all pets love me and i love them!
About: I have lots of pets, including 3 big dogs and 1 pit bull, and I also rescue and foster cats. I volunteered at APS for 1 year, where I walked dogs, learned how to handle big dogs in a very stressful environment for them, and learned how to care for certain pet medical needs(such as worms). My home has become essentially an animal sanctuary for cats! I never leave a cat stranded and always take it to the vet right away to address any medical treatment needed! I am good with handling all size dogs but I typically prefer to work with medium-small dogs, and I'm great with handling cats! I'm working a part time job right now but my schedule is pretty leniant! Mornings, night, and midday are all times I'm available to work! Although I mostly would like to do drop-ins, I'm fully able to do house sitting as well as long as the times are communicated a few days in advance! At home I make sure all my pets are fed according to the time that they need, many people have different feeding schedules and I'm able to cater to any of the pets needs. For dogs making sure you keep eyes on them at all times especially when outdoors. Making sure all doors leading to outside are shut, or pet is fully secured before a door is opened. Paying attention to warning signs of distress in an animal is very key. Whether they are having a physical reaction to something or it appears more emotional, having a close eye on the pet assures that they are getting the help they need at all times. And of course lots of loving and play with the animals if that's what the owner recommends! I understand that not all animals are playful or affectionate, but for the ones that are its definitely good to take a little extra time out of the day for some belly rubs!
About: I have an extensive background with domestic cats and dogs ranging from fostering kittens and puppies, freelance pet sitting for my community, to working in a daycare/boarding setting for dogs of all ages and personality types. I have been working with pets for nine years and have yet to meet a cat or dog I didn't make a connection with. My own personal dog displayed some reactivity behaviors that limited her opportunity for enrichment. With some hard work and dedication, I was able to safely manage her behaviors allowing her to enjoy situations that exposed her to other dogs. I am very grateful for everything I have learned with my own dog and the hundreds of dogs I worked with at the daycare/boarding facility. I continue to expand my understanding of pet behavior and look forward to supporting local community member's journey with their own pets. I am seeking a full-time job as I am new to the Durham/Raleigh area. I am available for overnight care and drop in visits before and after shifts. I will ideally have two to three days off a week which I can dedicate to pet care. I am not offering pet care out of my personal residence at this time. For the first time in my life, I do not have any pets. My previous dog passed away from cancer in January 2025 and my previous cat passed away in February 2024. I am available to dedicate all of my free time to providing services in the clients home or for walks in the area. I am able to go straight from work to a client's home and provide overnight care if needed.
About: I am no stranger to animals as I grew up on a farm raising horses and had dogs and cats since I was a little girl! I currently have a work from home job so I am flexible with times and hours to help meet others needs while they need my services. While I would love to have animals in my home, I already have a full house! While I am taking care of your dogs and/or cats I will treat your home with respect and attention to detail.
About: I have loved and cared for pets throughout my life, having owned dogs for as long as I can remember. This year, I began pet sitting for family and friends, and I decided to create a rover account to offer my services more widely. If you're seeking a reliable pet sitter who is passionate about animals, look no further—I’m here for you! I currently work part time so I have blocks in my day where I’m free in the evenings and early mornings to check in for potty breaks and meal times. I like having a list of instructions on my visits. I can easily allow your pet in their crate or let them roam freely while I’m there.
About: Dogs and cats deserve love and attention and that's why I'm here to help! I grew up with dogs and cats and raised a golden retriever for 14 years. I know it takes responsibility, patience, and a mutual understanding to take care of any animal. I love walking dogs and playing with them at the park. Some things I enjoy include hiking, cooking, and crafting. I currently have a 3 year old tabby cat named Ozi. He gets along with practically any animal. He is super energetic, and loves to cuddle. I currently work part-time so I am able to manage pet care daily. Before I head to work, I would make sure the pet is taken care of; fed, walked, and given attention as well as after work. I have plenty of time to take care of your dog and or cat! I make sure I follow their meal schedule and they receive lots of love I make sure there is open communication between us and I know all of your pets needs are taken care of. For example, how they socialize with children and other animals
About: I’ve worked in vet clinics for over 8 years and have had lots of experience with all types of pets and their different personalities ! I just finished my first year in veterinary school so I’m very confident that I can take care of your pet with the upmost concern for their health and well-being . I’m currently available for most of the months of June and July. I have a few obligations in those months that I will be sure to block out on my scheduler. When owners are away and I’m providing in home care , I understand that it can be a stressful time for some pets. I always do my best to make sure the animal is safe, comfortable , and happy at all times to create a positive experience for them until their pet parents return!
