Evelin always takes such great care of my pup, and is very respectful and caring of my home while she is in it. I will keep coming back to Evelin when I need visits for my pup!

William was great. He dropped in on my 3 dogs, sent pics, and updates during the weekend. I felt very comfortable that my dogs were being looked after by him. I would definitely recommend William and will be contacting him for future drop ins.

I’m glad Hilary was able to look after our cats. I was able to be away from home without worry. She sent good updates every day and I can tell the cats got plenty of attention. I would be happy to book with her again or recommend her to someone else.

Annalia is absolutely wonderful! This was our second time booking her to watch Pickle, and she is officially our go-to sitter. She was punctual every single day and sent great photo updates that put my mind at ease. She is friendly, communicative, and truly went above and beyond—even cleaning up a sickness mess and keeping me informed immediately. Pickle was happy and relaxed when I got home. I can’t recommend Annalia enough!

About: Rover! Profile Hi everyone! My name is Rachel and I'm excited to announce that I now offer dog walking and drop-in pet care in Sanford, NC, and the surrounding areas! With nearly 20 years as a veterinary assistant and a vet tech degree from the Vet Tech Institute of Pittsburgh in 2009, I’ve dedicated my career to animal care. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals, exotics, and farm animals like chickens, goats, sheep, and a few horses. I’ve also been a professional detection K9 handler for over nine years, mainly working with Labradors, but I have also worked with other breeds such as Coonhounds and German Shepherds. I do have experience with other types of breeds when it comes to detection work, in the fields of search and rescue or even in a hospital or clinic setting while working in veterinary medicine. Services include: 🐕 Dog Walking 🐾 Drop-In Visits 💊 Medication Administration 🦴 Care for Senior or Special Needs Pets 🐈 Cat Care Throughout the years, I have pet sit and drop in to check on animals of friends, family, coworkers, bosses, and friends of friends. I loved meeting and getting to know everyone's pets I have watched several times over the years. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my priority. Whether they need checked in on after a surgery or procedure while you are gone, a quick bathroom break, exercise, medication or extra love, I’m here to help. I’m experienced with administering medications—including oral medications, injections, and subcutaneous fluids—and caring for pets with health issues or disabilities, including several of my own. Whether post-surgery care or medication management while you're away, you can rely on. I bring experience from both shelter/animal control environments and veterinary care, working with cats of all ages—from kittens to seniors with medical needs. I’ve cared for cats in both clinical and in-home settings, including those requiring treatment for a variety of conditions, many of which were my own personal pets. I am comfortable administering oral medications and injections, and I focus on keeping each cat as calm and stress-free as possible during care. I will do everything I can to make your cat or multiple cats/kittens feel safe and loved while you are away, just like I would for my own cats at home. I take pride in building trust and forming relationships, especially with more reserved or sensitive cats, so they feel safe and comfortable during each visit. At home, I have 8 dogs, 3 cats, a dwarf hamster, and 6 hermit crabs. Some are working dogs, others retired or couch potatoes. I love caring for all of them and will treat your pet like family—spoiling them during walks or dinner unless you prefer otherwise. Send me a message for meet and greats or bookings. I’d love to hear from you and I am looking forward to I work part-time as an experienced veterinary assistant and part-time as a professional working dog handler, which provides me with a flexible schedule to provide excellent animal care. This allows me to offer attentive, reliable services for your pets. I am available for drop-in visits, walks, and in-home care most weekdays, with extended availability in the afternoons, with some evenings and weekends. I strive to remain flexible and accommodate each pet’s routine and individual needs. I provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs while closely following the owner’s instructions and preferences. Whether in your home or during walks, I prioritize maintaining your pet’s established routine to ensure comfort, consistency, and reduced stress. My goal is to keep each pet as calm, happy, and stress-free as possible during every visit. I remain attentive to behavior, safety, and environmental factors at all times, creating a secure and positive experience.

Charlotte came in clutch when I booked a couple of days before my trip. She was friendly and trustworthy. I only have cats and they don’t need any care other than attention, since their food and litter are automatic. It’s possible that this led Charlotte to think I didn’t want updates about the cats. Day 1 of 2 I reached out to check in and I heard from Charlotte that Meatloaf did not respond well to her the first visit—hissed but did not become aggressive—but that he warmed up to her on visit 2. Definitely will set up introductory visits each time which I have learned will avoid this issue. Charlotte stopped responding after the first day, so I have no way of knowing how the second day of visits went. I was pretty worried about whether Meatloaf was mean to her or if the cats were being checked on. I’m not even sure if she saw my shy second cat at all—just any more communication would have been good. I don’t want to tank any ratings if my cats were a problem but I have no idea what happened.

About: My name is Sydney! I have successfully trained my large dog and love helping other puppies be their best selves. I am available for a large portion of the day during the summer and can take your dog on any length of walk you would like including long walks (more than 2 miles). I will always love your puppy just as much as my own while also enforcing any training or behavioral management practices that you are working on. I am able to work on socialization with other dogs as well as interactions with humans and other animals. You can contact me to keep up with your dog and request updated puppy check-ins as needed. I hope you will choose me to help out with your puppy and free up time in your day that you really need! I am a teacher and so can take care of your dog before 8:00 AM or after 5:00 PM during the school year. During the summer, I am very open! I am used to crate trained dogs as well as dogs who are left out when alone. I would love to cuddle your baby, or just sit in the room with them. Whatever makes them comfortable.

About: I've taken care of family pets since I was old enough to help out! I've taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, fancy rats, fish... Pretty much any type of animal! I do walks, overnight sitting, and check-ins. My family and friends can attest to my experience and talent in caring for all creatures, big and small. I'm currently searching for a full-time job, but as of now my schedule is completely open! I can do weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I maintain a friendly and open relationship with pets, meeting them where they're at rather than forcing them to come to me. I will always maintain any recommendations or schedules given to me to ensure that I give your pets the best care possible. I will also always obey house rules and ensure that me and your fur baby leave your home just as it was when you left!

I currently offer pet care availability during early mornings, lunchtime, and evenings on weekdays, with more flexible availability on weekends.

This makes me a great option for anyone needing reliable early morning or afternoon care, along with consistent, attentive support for their pets throughout the week. I will always follow any specific instructions regarding treats, care routines, brushing, walking, or play so your pet gets exactly what they need and are used to. I take communication seriously and am happy to share pictures and regular updates during my time with your pet so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. Your home will be treated with the same care and respect as my own, and I always aim to leave things even better than I found them.

Emily was amazing from the start. She listened to all the kitties needs and tried to socialize with them before our vacation so that they are not unfamiliar with her. With every drop in visit she made sure all their needs are taken care of, checked their water and most importantly engaged them with lots of play time. Within her second visit she was able to convince our shy cat to trust her and took great care of them. She also provided regular updates and listened to any input we had She provided a peace of mind while we were hundreds of miles away and our cats also loved interacting with her. We will definitely rebook with Emily again when life requires us to be elsewhere

About: I adore all animals and wish I could spend more time with them which is why I am applying to become a pet sitter. I have experience caring for my own animals throughout my life as well as fostering animals while they waited for their forever homes.

If I were to care for your pets at my home, I have a large yard (3 acres) and a spacious home in a quiet community. My two dogs are very friendly and love meeting new animals including cats. I am available for drop ins at your home and can take your pets for walks around your neighborhood or bring them to a local park.

About: With years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, I’ve had the privilege of looking after everything from playful puppies to loving senior dogs. Whether it’s offering gentle care for elderly pups with special needs or keeping up with the boundless energy of a young one, I approach each dog with patience, understanding, and a true passion for their well-being. I’ve spent countless days ensuring both active and bashful dogs feel safe and loved, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with each dog I care for. Your dog will receive the attention, affection, and care they deserve, making sure they’re happy and well-cared-for while you're away. As a student currently training to become a pilot, my schedule is somewhat flexible, which allows me to comfortably fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can easily accommodate drop-ins and other pet care needs around my classes and flight training. Whether it's playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I’ll ensure your pets get the attention they deserve. With my adaptable hours, I’m confident I can provide the care and affection your furry friend needs while you're away! I make sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for during drop-ins, following your instructions for feeding, playtime, and medications. I’m also happy to check on your home, ensuring everything is secure. If anything seems off, I’ll communicate with you right away, so you can feel confident your pet and home are in good hands.
