Pet Sitting in Little River

“Carrie was great! Our little opinionated chihuahua absolutely loved her, and Carrie spent extra time with him going above and beyond. We will be sure to book her again if we go out of town and can’t bring our dog.”

“Amazing sitter! Her performance was above and beyond!! Her communication was exceptional with lots of pictures and updates. Respected our property as if it was her own home. Very trustworthy. Will definitely use Katie again. She represented Rover very well.”

“Kalie was wonderful with my high-energy, quirky & sometimes anxious pup! Capone was well cared for (fed, watered, played with & loved) and I came home to a happy boy after my trip. Kalie was on time for all appointments and spent the entire time I asked for with Capone. I enjoyed the photos she shared with me, and I would recommend her highly to care for your furry family members!”

“Madison took such excellent care of our kitty while we were gone. She is extremely communicative and flexible and followed the instructions we left behind. She also kindly adjusted her schedule when we needed an extra week of care. Our cat took to her immediately and got the TLC she needed. If you are looking for a responsible sitter, Madison is the way to go!”

“Will definitely hire again! Anita was great with my very skittish cat and super communicative and friendly!”

Rebecca H.

“HIGHLY recommend Jemma! She was absolutely amazing! Our pup automatically fell in love with her when she came for our initial meet and greet. Jemma was extremely prompt and thorough with her visits and sent pictures. She loved our pup as if he were her own which made my heart so happy! Our pup is a senior and Jemma did great with him! She even loved on our cat when she came to visit which was greatly appreciated. I would definitely use Jemma’s services again and I would also highly recommend her. She gave me the peace of mind I needed to leave our pup.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs the majority of my life. When I didn’t have my own, I was always volunteering to take care of my friends dogs. This was good for me while I was going to school and moving around. After separating from the Air Force, I have been blessed to have two of my own fur babies. I’m able take care of your pets before and after I go to my full time job. If you want me to take care of your pets over night, we would need to make sure they get along with my dogs. I would take care of your pets as if they where my own. I take mine on a walk three times a day. Since I don’t have a yard, I’m constantly taking my Great Pyrenees/Lab hiking 2 to 3 times a week. He is also a picky eater, so I’ve had to get creative with his food. My pets are always on a leash when I take them out.

“It’s maybe the sixth time i book with Skylar. She’s super reliable and my cat loves her. I travel a lot and she does a great job every time. She also takes adorable pictures every visit 😍”

About: I've worked in veterinary medicine for years and am currently pursuing my dream of becoming a veterinarian! Alongside my professional experience, I’ve pet sat for over a decade, caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I am new to Rover, but not to pet sitting and animal care! I’ve also worked at animal shelters, dog daycares, and on farms! Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, administer medications, bathe, and comfort their pets. I’m confident with senior care, behavioral needs, and even exotic pets thanks to my clinical background. Your pet's well-being is always my top priority! I am RECOVER BLS certified (CPR for cats and dogs), and graduated with a bachelors degree in veterinary technology. I work full-time as a Registered Veterinary Technician in a veterinary hospital, but only four days a week, giving me flexibility for pet care. On workdays, I can either bring your pet with me (if appropriate and approved) or stop by during my lunch break for a walk, potty break, or check-in. I'm reliable, communicative, and happy to accommodate your pet’s needs around my schedule. When I’m not working, I am always home. When pet sitting, your pet is my top priority. My own dog is quite lazy, so I’m always excited to walk dogs who enjoy walks!! I provide pet care in my own home, which has three bedrooms, a yard (currently putting a fence in), and plenty of space for your pet to feel safe and relaxed. My fence will be completed at the end of August! I live by myself with a friendly dog and a cat, both well-socialized and used to guests. I can crate or separate pets as needed to ensure everyone’s comfort. If you would like your pet to be crated, please bring one! With my veterinary background, I’m trained to monitor health, administer medications, and create a low-stress, loving environment tailored to each pet’s needs. I currently pet sit for multiple veterinarians who trust me to keep their pets safe. If you would like me to stop by your home for a check-in or pick your pup up for a walk, know that I am trustworthy and will treat your home and pet with the utmost care!

“Holly is AMAZING! Not only is she very attentive to Archie, giving him so much love, but also went above and beyond, making me feel very secure while I was away. I highly, highly, recommend her!”

About: With 14 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I bring genuine passion to every pet I work with. I've had a lifelong love for animals knowing I wanted to be a veterinarian since I was just 5 years old! And as a recent pre-veterinary science graduate from Lees-McRae College, I'm actively pursuing my dream while providing care for your pets. I understand the unique needs of all types of pets, from playful puppies to independent cats. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets, as I'm currently caring for my own elderly dog and cat. I'm also experienced in administering various medications, whether oral, topical, or injection. Having cared for pets with chronic conditions, I'm comfortable following medication schedules and handling special medical needs. I'd also love to meet you and your pet with a free meet-and-greet session before we start regular care. This gives us a chance to discuss your pet's routine, preferences, and any special needs they might have. It also helps your pet get comfortable with me, making future visits less stressful for everyone! I'm available from 6am to 9pm daily, offering flexible scheduling to accommodate your pet care needs. Morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care I've got you covered! I treat every pet like family, ensuring they're comfortable and happy in their environment. I will follow your care instructions precisely and provide regular updates with photos during each visit if wanted! I offer a free meet-and-greet session before starting regular care, where we can discuss specialized needs, routines, and preferences and most importantly, make sure I'm the best fit for your pet!

“Faith followed all instructions which is so important for a neurotic kitty like mine! She communicated important updates and asked questions to get more information. She even added an extra visit when she felt like my cat needed it. I am booking her again!”

With specialized expertise in training puppies and providing attentive senior care, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior and health. I prioritize safety, comfort, and personalized attention, ensuring each furry client receives nurturing and enriching experiences. My commitment to fostering strong bonds and creating positive, memorable interactions sets me apart as a compassionate and trusted caregiver at Rover. I am retired and looking for walking activities to keep me busy with the things I enjoy the most, PETS!! I love being around them as much as possible. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their comfort, well-being, and adherence to any specific routines or instructions provided by the owner. Here’s how I approach different pet care services: Dog Sitting: Daily Routine: I maintain the dog's regular feeding schedule, ensuring they have access to fresh water at all times. Exercise and Play: I engage the dog in activities they enjoy, such as walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep them active and happy. Comfort: I provide cozy resting areas and ensure the environment is safe and secure. Medication: If required, I administer medications according to the owner's instructions. Dog Walking: Safety First: Before the walk, I check equipment like leashes and harnesses to ensure they are secure. Exploration: I take dogs on stimulating walks in safe areas, allowing them to explore and enjoy their surroundings. Hydration: I bring water for hydration, especially during warmer weather. Positive Reinforcement: I use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior during walks.

“Abigail checked in our cat daily while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and let him outside to get some fresh air like we asked. Would trust her to help us out again in the future!”
