About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

About: I have trained puppies and up as well as taken care of senior dogs. Due to having dogs as pets since I was 6 years old, I have years of experience with all age ranges as well as helped my parents foster as a child/teenager. I am currently job hunting, but unemployed, so I do not have any scheduling conflicts during my available days listed. I am able to do both overnight sitting as well as localized multiple per day trips. I do not offer my own home for services, as there are cats here that belong to my roommate and I am not interested in disrupting them. When it comes to being in your home though, I work with the most care possible and will always communicate with you about everything.

I also provide consistent updates so you always feel connected and reassured. I look forward to offering your pet a safe, attentive, and truly personalized experience 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule, as I only work Fridays and am otherwise a stay-at-home mom.

I offer attentive, well-rounded care tailored to each pet’s needs, including feeding routines, walks, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I love staying active, so your pet can enjoy regular walks, outdoor time, and even longer adventures like hikes if they’re up for it. With my background in grooming, I’m also able to provide additional services such as nail trims and light grooming upon request for an added fee, making it convenient to keep your pet looking and feeling their best. Above all, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and creating a safe, engaging, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away 🐾

My schedule is pretty much open availability at the moment , but I do ask when booking that you are on time and if you are running behind there needs to be communication . If you are more than 45 minutes late Dropping your pet off we will need to reschedule for another time . I don’t have a fence at my home but I personally walk my dogs on a leash, or harness .

About: I bring lifelong experience in canine care, beginning in childhood and continuing through the present. I currently care for five dogs and have extensive hands-on experience managing multiple dogs at once, including the care of three litters and several additional dogs in the past. I am available seven days a week with flexible hours. At this time, I am seeking a position that offers flexibility rather than a full-time commitment, and I am eager to pursue work that aligns with my experience and interests. If needed, I am able to safely crate your dog or place them in a designated area. I am experienced in handling dogs that are uncomfortable walking on a leash and can manage them calmly and confidently. I also ensure that all basic needs are met before departure, including providing food and fresh water.

About: I have cared for my own personal pets as well as friend’s and family’s pets. I have enjoyed every minute of it. I walk, groom, feed, and bathe when needed. I am a graduate student at NCCU in Durham so I don’t have time for a full time position but Rover allows me to have the flexibility to do pet sitting when possible. Weekends are my most available time and I will also have time in between my clinicals and my classes that I can do walks or drop in visits! I have always been an animal lover, I have grown up in a household that has always had multiple pets at a time. My pets get my full attention and affection at al times when I am home! They bring me so much joy and I would love some more fur babies to love on with all of the responsibility of caring for the 24/7!
