About: I have been bringing home and taking in animals ever since 2010 when I was in 5th grade. I have always put a lot of time, patience, love, sweat and money into my own animals. I try to give my babies the best quality of life that I can provide and I intend to do the same while yours are in my care! I have a tremendous amount of love & respect for all animals. I also have a lot of experience with multiple different breeds because I've had numerous dogs, a cat & a leopard gecko. Some duties I can help assist with include potty training, walking, teaching training commands & any senior/special needs care. If needed I can administer oral liquid medications, as well as pills and I can change diapers too. I am a stay at home dog mommy and I run a small business as well. So I generally have a lot of time, love & space to offer at my house throughout the week for guests. I'd love to take care of your babies or walk them to help you out with your busy schedule! !!!NEW DAYCARE INQUIRIES PLEASE READ!!! :) DUE TO HIGH VOLUME OF CLIENTS IVE HAD TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO MY DAYCARE HOURS THEY ARE NOW FROM 8AM-8PM. **My base rate of $35/day ensures your baby with up to 12 hours per day in my care! If you were to need extended daycare time for longer than 12 hours, it is $10/hour per extra hour outside of my set daycare hours. If you were to need to drop-off before 8am I do charge an early bird fee of $10. I also offer custom packages for long-term daycare or odd situations, feel free to inquire and I'd be happy to try and help you! Thankyou so much for taking the time to read this! :)** If receiving in-home care from me I have a very friendly puppy who will keep your baby company. I can assure you your child will be treated as one of my own! Also if they are not pet friendly you can request one-on-one time and I can easily make that happen too. Im all about everyones comfort. :) If providing care in the clients home I will ensure your baby is safe, loved and comforted at all times, I will also abide by all house rules and make sure they're happy, fed & walked!

“Steve was absolutely fantastic and professional. My wife and I were new to dog sitting and usually use a boarding service when we go away. Well we ran out of time due to Thanksgiving around the corner so we reached out on Rover to find an amazing person who absolutely set our mind at ease from the moment we shook hands. Thanks Steve…. And of coarse Brady thanks you as well!!!”

About: I grew up with 3 dogs (Chief, Hunter, and Sydney) and 2 Guinea pigs, and I miss them greatly. Back home I would always babysit my sisters 2 Pitbull rescues, but since moving cross country, I don't get to see them much anymore. I adopted a kitten I found last year, and have been learning about feline care. I'm great with dogs of all sizes and ages, I've been through it all. Any special medications, feeding habits, or even if they're troublemakers, I can handle it! I work full time, so expect me early in the morning, and around 6pm. (Sometimes midday if possible) Weekends totally open! :) I will say I am much more of a morning person, so if that is what your pet is used to, look no further. I am very considerate for each situation, and no to pets are the same. Overall my strategy with my own pet is to get all of her energy out at once, and then to let her rest and relax for a while. Sometimes I'll give her puzzles, or new objects to get her thinking.

About: Hi!! I am a rising sophomore at ECU and my family and I just moved to Garner from New York. I am looking for dog care jobs over my summer break so I am available all day every day until I go back to school. I am a morning person and like starting my days quite early so any of you need anything in the morning, I would love to help! I absolutely adore dogs and everything about them! Any time there is one in the room I am drawn to it and it gets my undivided love and attention. Most of my family and friends call me the dog whisperer because all dogs love me too! I have been sitting for a little over two years and have experience with all ages, sizes and breeds. I love being outside and active, and going on walks is one of my favorite things to do. I also don’t mind picking up after the dogs. (Someones gotta do it lol). My family has had 2 dogs of our own but both are no longer with us anymore. They were my built in best friends and most of the time I enjoyed their company over my family’s. I have so much free time on my hands that I can work with as many that I possibly can! I like being up early and don’t mind being out all day. I can keep your gates and doors locked while we are inside. Make sure the dog is always on a leash before opening a door for a walk.

About: I absolutely adore pets and always have since I was young! Had several dogs all throughout my childhood and am currently in search for one of my own! I enjoy walking outside so if your dog loves to go for walks, we'd be the perfect match! I have also pet sat dogs of all ages many times before for neighbors and friends, so I would love to be able to pet sit for anyone in need whether that be for feeding time, walks, overnight care or just to be there so they aren't lonely! I recently moved back to North Carolina, so I will have plenty of time to take care and play with your pups! I am available weekdays and weekends. My home has a yard to run around and play in and the neighborhood is perfect for walks! I can easily crate your dogs if needed or they can snuggle up on the couch or bed. Looking forward to taking care of your furry family members and will treat them like my own :)

About: I’ve taken care of pets since the age of 14. I’ve been pet Mom to cats, dogs, fish and hampsters. I’m kind, reliable and trustworthy. I currently work part time so I have the needed time to care for your pets. I am committed to being open and honest. I want all persons and pets to be comfortable. Taking care of your pet is important to you and to me. I’m always willing to learn your pets routines and will always ask questions to ensure your pets needs are met. I value your trust and will do as asked in your home, respecting your privacy and requests.

About: What sets me apart is my professional veterinary background combined with a lifetime of hands-on animal experience. I grew up on a farm caring for livestock, which gave me an early understanding of animal behavior, responsibility, and the importance of attentive daily care. In addition to dogs and cats, I’m experienced with exotics and understand the specialized husbandry they require. I’m also confident supporting senior pets who need medication or mobility assistance, as well as juveniles who benefit from structure and close supervision. From recognizing subtle signs of illness to providing compassionate, individualized care, I offer not just love and companionship—but knowledgeable, safety-focused support tailored to every stage of life. Pet care is already a central part of my daily routine. I currently work at an emergency veterinary clinic from 4pm–1am, which means my mornings and early afternoons are fully dedicated to my own pets and available for client visits, walks, and check-ins. My schedule allows me to provide consistent daytime care, medication administration, enrichment, and detailed updates before heading into work. At home, I care for two dogs and four cats, so structured feeding schedules, exercise, litter maintenance, and individualized attention are part of my everyday life. Working in emergency medicine has also strengthened my ability to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond appropriately. Because animal care is both my profession and my lifestyle, incorporating client pets into my weekly routine feels natural, organized, and intentional — not rushed or secondary. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. During drop-in visits and walks, I follow your pet’s established schedule for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, litter box maintenance, and enrichment. I tailor each visit to your pet’s age, temperament, and energy level — whether that means an active walk, structured playtime, or calm companionship. With my veterinary background, I closely monitor behavior, appetite, mobility, and overall wellness during every visit. I’m comfortable administering medications (oral, topical, or injectable if needed) and supporting senior pets, juveniles, or pets with medical needs. I also offer basic bathing and light grooming when requested. Clear communication is important to me, so I provide detailed updates and photos after each visit to ensure you feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is always low-stress, attentive, and professional care that prioritizes both safety and comfort

I am able to feed them, bathe them, brush them, take them on walks, let them out for potty breaks and would love to play with them!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I can remember I have such a soft spot for animals especially pups. My family has always had lots of dogs through the years we currently have 6. I have always enjoyed taking care of my family and neighbors dogs. I’m currently working part time which means I will have lots of free time to take care of your pups. I am available for dog sitting on the weekends and week days after 2. I can do drop in anytime after 2 on week days and weekends. I can dog walk anytime after two on week days and weekends. I have 6 dogs of my own and they are all very loved and taken care of. I have lots of experience with dogs and can assure you your pup is safe with me. I have practice feeding, walking, and training dogs.

Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine, as it has become an integral part of my life. I understand that pets require consistent care, attention, and love, and I prioritize their well-being alongside my own daily activities. From the moment I wake up, I ensure that feeding, exercise, and playtime are seamlessly integrated into my schedule. I work full time with the local Humane Society where taking care of little furry friends has basically become second nature to me, i have on pet of my own and often have fosters in and out of the house that i have developed a routine that allows me to still work full time and make sure they are taken care of! Whether it's a refreshing morning walk, engaging play sessions in the afternoon, or cozy cuddle time in the evening, I make sure to allocate dedicated moments throughout the day to cater to their needs. I often have ample time during my break, after my shift ends and on my off days where i could come and lend a helping hand! When caring for my clients' pets, I prioritize their well-being and strive to provide them with the same love and attention they receive at home. From the moment I meet them, I make an effort to establish trust and build a bond. I attentively listen to my clients' instructions regarding their pets' routines, dietary needs, medications, and any specific care instructions. I ensure a safe and secure environment for the pets, giving them ample space to move and explore. Daily exercise is incorporated into their schedule, whether it's energetic walks, engaging playtime, or stimulating mental activities. Feeding schedules are strictly followed, and I monitor their water intake to keep them hydrated. I am observant and attentive to their behavior, swiftly addressing any signs of discomfort or health issues. Most importantly, I offer companionship and affection, providing a sense of familiarity and comfort while their owners are away. Communication with my clients is essential, as I provide regular updates and photos, ensuring they feel connected and reassured about their pets' well-being. Ultimately, I strive to create a seamless, stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners, ensuring that their beloved companions are well-cared for and cherished in my care.
