About: I have walked dogs and puppy sat in my childhood neighborhood as well as volunteered to walk dogs at APS of Durham. I also have a sweet, loving dog of my own who I’ve had and taken care of for over seven years. She has anxiety so I am very familiar with dogs who are shy or scared of humans. I am a student at Anderson University and am looking for a way to make some extra money and get a short break from studying by taking care of your wonderful dog(s)! I live in a dorm room on campus so am not allowed to have dogs over, but would love to come to your place and take care of your pet there!
About: Growing up we had 7 cats, 3 dogs, 2 fish and 2 dwarf frogs. I loved caring for all the animals and knew I would always have animals in my life. Since, I have raised several cats and dogs over the years. I comfortably cared for our one dog through her battle with bladder cancer. I also raised a German Shepherd to the age of 16. I have also cared for family members and friends animals during vacations or illness. Today, I have 2 dogs and 2 cats. We strongly believe that the right food, exercise and lots of love help keep them safe and healthy. We treat our animals like kids by talking to them, playing with them and letting them sleep and cuddle on the bed.
About: I have experience with all sizes of dogs, from Shih Tzus to Great Pyrenees as well as both indoor and outdoor cats. I also have experience with different temperaments, such as fearful, hyper, or dominant animals. I am a stay-at-home mom with a newborn, so my schedule is very flexible and I would love the chance to play with your fur babies! I make sure your fur babies are comfortable and all their needs are met, as well as taking care when entering your home to ensure any escape attempts are unsuccessful!
About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. As a pet owner myself, I’ve had multiple dogs and have provided pet sitting services for countless dogs and cats over the years. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and animals that require medication or extra attention. The most I’ve cared for at one time is two dogs and two cats, so I’m comfortable managing multiple pets while ensuring each one receives the care and attention they deserve. I genuinely love animals and have the flexibility to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care for your pets while you’re away. Over the next few months, I’ll be out of school, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends to accommodate your pet care needs, whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I treat every home with respect, keep a clean environment, and make sure doors, gates, and other safety measures are always secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I bring 12 years of hands-on experience with a local dog rescue, including fostering, training, and caring for dogs of many breeds, ages, sizes, and personalities. We have fostered everything from young puppies to dogs over 100 pounds, so I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual needs and routine. I’m also comfortable administering medications and providing extra care when needed. My experience has taught me to pay close attention to a dog’s behavior, body language, comfort level, and individual personality. Because I work full-time from home and don’t travel for work, I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day. Most importantly, I understand that every dog is different. I take the time to learn what makes your dog comfortable, happy, and feel at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work full-time from home and don’t travel for work. Your dog will have plenty of companionship, attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away How I Care for Pets Our personal dog passed away a few years ago, and while we aren’t ready to get another dog just yet, we truly miss having one around. He was spoiled and treated like another member of the family, and that is the same warmth and care I provide to every dog I look after. I offer in-home boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. Whether your dog stays with me or I care for them in their own home, I’ll follow their normal routine, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I have been around animals my entire life and have always had pets in my household.

I make my own work schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet walks, drop-ins, and sittings into my routine. I’m also currently in nursing school, so I only work part-time. This allows me to plan my schedule around both school and pet care, making sure your pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. For the Safety, Trust & Environment section, you could put: I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and routines. I’m very attentive and will treat your pet like one of my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m also respectful of their space and make sure everything is secure before I leave.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Green Acres
Maddie was able to help us out last minute and take our dog for a walk. She was on time and had excellent communication. She greeted Pepper and made Pepper feel comfortable. Our dog is a large dog and very strong and Maddie had no problem walking her. Pepper enjoyed her walk and was very tired afterwards! I would definitely contact Maddie again to walk our dog.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
