“Cory took great care of Grizzy on their walk. He was very communicative and easygoing.”

“Cheryl is 10+/10. She is accepting and the BEST in caring for my deaf sweet, sometimes determined Jack Russell mix who has her own mind. We were truly blessed when Cheryl came into our lives.”

“Melissa is very pleasant, professional, reliable, and responsive. We used her for the first time to walk our dog and will continue to use her in the future.”

About: I've taken care of my own pets and many of the pets of family, friends, and neighbors for over twenty years. I also have a service dog who I've trained mostly on my own, with refinement help from a professional, so you can feel confident that your fur family will receive exceptional care and attention from a patient and knowledgeable handler. I have an open and flexible schedule every day of the week, so it shouldn't be difficult to match what you need for your pet(s)! I have a 4yo poodle service dog who would only need to be with me for overnight stays or if your dog(s) would like a mid day playmate. He's incredibly sociable and energetic when off duty. Either together or solo, I will make sure to follow any routines or specific instructions we discuss and care for your fur family as if they were my own.

“Jen was fantastic! She took our lab Derek for a walk everyday and even trained him how to walk while on a harness. Something we hadn’t been able to do for years! Very accommodating and when we needed her to come by an extra time there was no hesitation to help us out. If you need someone to help out with your dog while you are away , you will not find anther person more caring, loving or helpful with your “Rover” than Jen!”

About: I love all animals, I’ve dog sit in the past for families and really enjoyed it. I have prior experience with small dogs, along with larger ones. I’m looking for openings in the Louisburg area. Looking forward to have the opportunity to work with different animals and meeting new people in the area. I believe you have to be patient with all animals and pets especially when you are first meeting them. Always keeping in mind that it’s going to take time for them to warm up to a new person caring for them. I’m currently taking a break from nannying, and have a huge love for animals. I’ve had pets all my life. From cats, fish, hamsters, and dogs; to birds, snakes, iguanas and bearded dragons! I’m excited and can’t wait to meet your pets!! :) Being respectful of people’s homes, personal spaces and overall privacy. My main focus is the well being of the animal, making sure they’re taken care of.

“Rebecca was great with Penelope! She was always on time and super responsive and always sent pics during her visit. I will definitely be using her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a walker :)”

About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for all animals. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level—whether they’re energetic, shy, senior, or still learning. I’m attentive on walks, gentle during sitting, and always focused on safety, consistency, and positive interactions. I’m especially mindful with senior pets who may need slower walks, extra comfort, or medication reminders, and I’m patient with puppies who are still learning routines and leash manners. I communicate clearly with owners, follow care instructions closely, and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is simple: happy, relaxed pets and complete peace of mind for you. My open availability allows me to be hands-on and fully present, giving your pet(s) lots of attention and personalized care with patience love and consistency. I make sure your pet(s) feel safe, happy, and loved in their own home. I stick to their routine, give plenty of cuddles, play, and gentle attention, and make sure they’re comfortable every step of the way. You’ll get updates, photos, and lots of peace of mind while I care for your furry (or feathery!) family members.

About: I was adopted by my first cat in 2000 and have dog-and cat-sat for friends and co-workers ever since. Having moved to a farm 3 years ago, I’ve also cared for our neighbor’s horses, chickens, and guinea fowl. In general, I respect all pets' boundaries and love to find their individual personalities. I have a lot of experience with various temperaments and personalities, and am sensitive to the needs and quirks of every animal I meet. I've bottle-fed newborns, given oral medications (pills and liquid), applied topical ointments, and given fluid injections to cats with renal failure. I'll honor any preferences you have for caring for your cats (e.g., feeding times, fresh water daily, etc.). My wife and I have rescued and fostered cats for the last 10 years, so I’m familiar with a variety of health issues and quirky behaviors. And I scoop litters! At the moment I work remotely from home, so I can flex my schedule around any specific times you may need. Driving long distance is not a deal-breaker for me. Most of our cats are indoors but have access to a fenced-in portion of the back yard. We feed them wet food twice a day (morning and night) and snack them with dry food throughout the day. Each one gets playtime throughout the day, and the only "rules" are no cats on the kitchen counters. People have told us that when they die, they hope to come back as a cat we take care of. Given the number of cats we have, I'm unable to board any pets.

“Jessica was an excellent companion to Milo during my absence. We look forward to having her care for Milo again when the need arises in the future.”

“Allison was great with our dog Lola, took her time to let Lola get comfortable with her. We will definitely use Allison again!”

“Eden was just what we needed to help cover a gap in our schedules. Our dog Carson is strong-willed and strong bodied at 40lbs of solid muscle. Eden had no problem handling both aspects. Carson walked further for longer and put herself straight to bed from exhaustion every night. She truly enjoyed her walks with Eden almost more than she enjoys walking with us! That speaks volumes for Eden’s care and skill in giving our girl the quality exploration and exercise time she needs. Will definitely use Eden again for future needs.”

About: I’ve had all kinds of pets my whole life from chinchillas, birds, huskies, cats and now mom to two pitbulls. I can handle all types of pets except reptiles. I am a stay at home mom seeking some extra money by pet sitting and dog walking. I raised my youngest pitbull since she was 4 weeks old. I believe in treating pets as part of the family. I have an extremely flexible schedule. My family and I live in Louisburg so I’m looking to find pets to care for relatively close by which will allow me to offer more walks and visits per day. I am excited about this new opportunity and look forward to meeting all your wonderful dogs, cats and other furry friends! I am a stay at home mom and manage the family tree service NC Tree Specialist LLC. I love animals and can’t wait to take care of yours. I am very responsible and will treat your babies just like my own. They will be safe and treated with kindness and respect when they are in my care.

About: I have a long history in working with animals and I have a lot of clients that I actively petsit for. I have worked with diabetic dogs, puppies, seniors, cats/kittens, special needs and aggressive breeds. I am highly trained and have a great relationship with animals. I have had pets in my care for over 10 years. I have a very outgoing personality so I get along extremely well with animals. I am very reliable, honest and punctual. Your pets and home are in the best possible care with me. I currently work from home, therefore I am able to give my animals and other animals the high amount of attention they need. Sticking to a routine comes naturally as I am extremely flexible in my stay at home job. I love making time for the fur babies. I make sure food, water, toys, attention and exercise are priorities. It is important to ensure a proper routine is followed. I love giving animals my love and attention as they are just like people. My guaranteed promise to my clients is that your pets will be well taken care of.

“Taylor was fantastic!! I needed a last minute savior after my normal person backed out and she was there for us. Great communication and was great with my big fur baby. I plan on using her whenever I need someone from now on.”

About: I've taken care of raising my kids in a pet-friendly environment for many years that stems from a childhood of taking every stray pet I could get past my mom. I have best friends in the pet rescue business as well as pet transport. All of our pets have been considered family all the way through their lives. I cherish any pet like I gave birth to them and have instilled that in my kids, grandkids, and anyone I could embark on having that conversation with. The majority of the photos you see in my profile are my grand-fur-babies as well as our forever family members that started out as rescues that are still present in our lives by moving on with my daughter in her adult life. She is also on Rover in Colorado if you know or need pet lover's help out there. Since Covid devastated this nation and my business I have been in NC helping take care of my grandkids with my ex-son, I have now moved to Lake Royale in NC permanently to be closer to my grandkids. I am home every day and have an open loving schedule to share the love I am full of for anything that comes my way. God is so Good! I have an open welcoming loving heart, a knack for customer service, and strive for attention to detail. Our home is warm, full of love, and ready to keep your fur babies safe, spoiled, and content. Unfortunately, I do not have a fenced yard but I am in a safe community, have a large yard, and would never walk/let your fur baby out without a proper safety harness and leash. My schedule is flexible since I am retired. My love for animals is why I love being able to use this platform. I use River when I go visit my grandkids 3 times a year. I live the Lake Royale community so have gate access. I live full time in my 38 foot Class A Motorhome until my cottage is done being built. I am a stickler about ensuring your pet is on leash when outdoors. while indoors as long as other clients pets are friendly and willing pets will be able to roam freely. Crates are recommended for overnight stays or if pets will not get along.

“Mary is absolutely amazing. She took care of both our dogs for an entire week while we were out of town. She was always punctual and always stayed the entire 30 minutes. She provided us with details of the visit everytime and always sent us pictures”
