“Sierra might love my pup as much as I do! She understands her needs and addresses her fears. Parts of our street scare Athena (yappy dogs in that house, screaming kids across the street) and Sierra understands her cues. She is patient and sweet with her. She will take her to our backyard where Athena feels safest. Or she will walk the other direction to keep her away from those triggers. I know that she is well cared for when I can't do it myself and she's happy when I come home.”
About: I'm currently finishing my senior year of college, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I enjoy spending quality time with animals, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m always attentive to each pet’s needs and can easily separate or crate pets if needed. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I strive to provide a clean, calm, and loving environment at all times. I’ve cared for dogs of all personalities since I was 10. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique quirks. While I don’t offer training, I always treat pets with patience, love, and respect.
About: I've been dog walking and pet sitting professionally for about two years, but my love of animals has been life long. I have experience with both dogs and cats. Sometimes, I feel like I get along with them more than people. I recently graduated from UNC so I have nothing but time to take care of your pets. I will be able to devote my full attention to them and their needs. I always put the safety and care of the pets I watch above everything else. I am always vigilant and know how to handle a situations before it escalates.
About: Since I was 15, I have dedicated myself to caring for furry friends. They are unique and loyal beings capable of showing true love and demonstrating their happiness when one knows how to understand the true reason why they exist. I am currently available 100% to take care of the furry ones, regardless of the day and time, but please always communicate in advance and seriously. Thank you. I currently live in an apartment in a private location. My house is home to me, my husband, and my son, who is already 6 years old. My husband is also a pet lover. For more information, we speak little English and our language is Spanish. Our apartments also have a private, fenced area for pet care.
About: I live on a 14-acre property with vinyl horse fencing that has been reinforced with fence wire to contain dogs securely. We have two fully fenced fields, each about 70 yards x 50 yards. One field has agility equipment. Boarders and day care dogs will be able to interact with the agility equipment, if time allows and dog is comfortable. The other field is used mainly for disc dog practice and competitions, but is also great for general play. We have a stream running along the back of our property. We have 2 dog runs outside for outdoor relaxation when we are not doing activities. I have dog training certifications with Karen Pryor Academy and Animal Behavior College. I prefer to interact with dogs using positive reinforcement, treats and praise. I have been involved with dog sport training since 2008. We currently have 7 small dogs, all actively involved in dog sports, including flyball, disc, agility, barn hunt and tricks. Our females are intact and 2 males are intact.
“Sarah did a fabulous job! I reached out to her while I was in north Carolina with my mother after surgery. Due to her being in a walker, we needed someone to help with her chihuahua when it was time for me to return home to georgia. She took the time to update me not only on the dog, but my mother as well. I know that we will definitely use her again! I am so grateful to her”
About: I have spent my whole life around dogs. From a young child to current day, I've always had a pet in my life. I have cared for outdoor dogs, indoor dogs, fish, and snakes. I've also cared for and been around most ages of dogs from 8 week puppies to elderly companions. I love spending time outdoors with them, sunshine, snow, pools, treks, mud, or wherever. My two kids are in school so I'll have plenty of time for your pet. My kids are comfortable around pets so even after school, I'm still available for care. I'm also available to board any day or night of the week. I'm close to parks and Pilot Mountain trails. I have plenty of backyard space for you pet to run and even a ramp entrance for pets with mobile difficulties. I have a backyard space for healthy walking/running. I have plenty of toys to keep your pet active and cushions for relaxing. I have a crate available if needed. I also have a dog of my own to keep your pet company. My dog is allowed on all the furniture in the house and yours is welcome to join in for cuddles.
About: I have owned dogs and cats my whole life as well as multiple types of reptiles, fish, chickens and rabbits. I graduated with an associates degree in Aquarium Science Technology where I took operant conditioning classes (animal training) as well as completed multiple internships working with animals of all kinds. My passion is taking care of animals of all kinds and I love to fufill the needs of any furry friend that needs me. As an owner of both dogs and cats, I never get tired of giving them the care they need and learning about their individual personalities. Respect is key. That means for the animal as well as the people trusting me with their fur babies. Pets will always get my full attention while with them whether its play time or bed time, fresh food and water as well as plenty of outside time is my top priority.
About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals from house pets to farm animals. I currently do Rover full-time and go to school online, but have worked at a dog boarding/training facility and have worked with/handled dogs of all sizes and breeds. Although I have more experience around dogs I love cats just as much! I have no issues with certain breeds, ages, sizes, or handling medicine (so long as it is nothing a professional vet should handle). I can’t wait to watch and care for your fur babies! I currently work full-time. I usually have two full days off each week for work and I have a very flexible schedule, giving me plenty of free time to walk, watch, and love your pets. I do have my own dog but unfortunately she is not friendly with other animals. Because of this I can only do daycare/overnight at clients own homes and walks/check-ins. I have plenty of personal and professional experience with aggressive animals and have no issues watching/walking aggressive dogs so long as both me and you are comfortable with it. With that being said it is important to me that any aggressive behavior whether with animals and/or people is told upfront and honestly as well meeting the dog ahead of time.
About: I am an animal lover at heart and currently own rats, tropical fish, and an angora rabbit. I have 15 years of experience pet walking and sitting. Throughout the years I've had many pets ranging from cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, small pets, and am comfortable giving medication as needed. Fostering has also been a part of my life, so pets with special needs are no problem! I am comfortable around pretty much any animal, so send me a message and we'll see how I can help! Afternoons and evenings work best for pet care -walking, playing, giving medication, etc., as I have an online business that I focus on in the mornings. Multi-day care is an option, but being married, overnights will need to be discussed. I'm very comfortable handling all size animals, from small mice up to great danes. Every animal is different, so we move at their speed and comfort levels - if they're excitable with lots of energy, we can do lots of walks and playtime. If they're more laid back and just like someone to be around, I can bring a book or knitting project for a gentle hangout.
About: I have raised and cared for a variety of animals almost my whole life. Babies through senior care including medications and insulin shots. Patient and caring. I am early retired, so I have flexible times both day and night to care for, play with, visit with, and walk your beloved pets. I have a fenced yard for your pet to play as well as a senior dog to keep them company. My entire house is pet friendly.
“Emily and I met to get to know once another and let her interact with Kacee.

We got pictures from Emily while Kacee was out being his wonderful self which I loved. We will definitely be using Emily in the future. Emily thank you so much”
About: I have had a cat and a dog since I was young, so I understand the need to be attentive at all times. I understand the need to be caring but yet stern. I have trained my current dog, Frankie. I think what sets me apart is the ability to be playful with dogs, and my calm and patient demeanor. I have a dog and two cats so I am constantly taking my dog for walks, cleaning up after the cats, feeding all of the animals, and changing the litter for the cats. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can relax and follow their usual routine. I make sure they get attention, exercise, playtime, and love. I maintain feeding, and medication schedule.
