“Home away from home! Thanks to Kylene for providing such loving and comfortable care for our guy while we were out of town. Not only did we stay in close contact, but Kylene accommodated our drop off and pick up needs. Our guy needs meds and gentle handling and Kylene ensured he was well cared for. No doubt we will rely on Kylene’s services in the future! Love her!”

“Abigail and her family have been amazing with my 2 girls! She is super communicative and made sure she knew everything about the girls before the start date. The girls always come home happy and tired, and Abigail always sends pictures of all the fun they have. Highly recommend!”


About: What sets me apart is that I actually stick to your pet’s routine and pay attention to the little things. I also don’t mind helping taking care of exotic pets because I am trying to be an Exotics/Wildlife Veterinarian and have always had a passion for exotics, so I’ll be more than happy to help! I’ve helped with puppy training like potty reinforcing basic commands, but I am always willing to learn any crate training or potty training. I’m also comfortable with senior pups and making sure they get extra patience, slower walks, or medications if needed but I will need to learn how to administer your pup’s medication. I always send updates and photos so you know your pups are happy and taken care of. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I’m mostly available in the afternoons. I usually plan my classes and responsibilities earlier in the day, so afternoons are open for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and playtime. It works out great because I can give pets my full attention without feeling rushed, and I’m able to stay consistent with their schedule. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding and walk schedules, give them plenty of attention, and respect their personality and space. I’m also very respectful of the home and always send updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.
“Very warm and loving household and super helpful little ones to boot! Sayton is POOPED and had a great weekend all on short notice. Our new beach getaway dog-auntie! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜❤️”

About: Hi! I am JoLynn and I am a pet owner and animal lover that enjoys dedicating my time to dog walking and drop in animal care! I have experience caring for cats, dogs, birds, fish, guinea pigs, hamsters and domestic ducks. My current pets are a miniature dachshund, a large breed doberman, a blue and gold macaw and a domestic duck! I have worked with many animals and am comfortable grooming, walking, feeding, playing with and caring for your pets. I will make sure your pet gets the exercise, attention, and love he/she needs while you are away. Your pets will receive the same care I would want for my own. I am an energetic, trustworthy, caring person with a flexible schedule and would love to care for your pet! I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Thank you❣
About: Hi! I’m new to the area and would love to meet all the neighborhood animals! I recently moved here from Michigan to live with my husband here in the Slocum neighborhood in Havelock North Carolina. Back home I have two puppies, Millie and Ruby and here in North Carolina I have a puppy and kitty named pepper and maple. Back home I have been reliable to take care of my neighbors dog and cat to take care of them by feeding their dog and cat, taking their dog for walks, playing with their dog and cat and making sure their dog goes outside to go potty. I love being a parent to my puppy and kitty and it’s the best part of my day to come home to them 💕🐾🐶🐱 I’m unemployed and currently looking for a job but I’ll be able to take care of your animals during the day throughout the week and at night if needed. I have a fenced in backyard which is where I take out my puppy maple out to go potty. As mentioned before I have kitty named pepper as well. Maple is 6-7 months old and gets along well with other animals and is a very friendly and social dog. I take maple for walks and sometimes for runs often. We do have a pet scorpion as well but he stays in an enclosed glass cage away from the other animals. Pepper has her own room where she sleeps and has a litter box, a cat tree, and a food and water bowl. Both pepper and maple are allowed on the furniture and maple has a dog kennel and two dog beds but she sleeps in our room. And she also has a food and water bowl in the kitchen area. There are plenty of toys for the animals to play with but you are welcome to bring your own toys as well. I would also like to add that there will be no additional caretakers and it’ll just be me.
“Tianna was amazing and so sweet to our pup. She sent pictures and updates daily which helped me a lot throughout this whole process. Will definitely ask her again to watch our pupper! She's super patient and flexible which was great for our hectic schedule.”

All of my services will be avaliable morning, afternoon and night time. (Depending on what is needed)! When caring for pets in your home, I focus on maintaining their usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I follow your instructions carefully—feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and any special needs—while giving lots of love, attention, and playtime. I also keep your home safe and secure, and I provide regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is well cared for. If boarding your pet at my home, I create a calm and welcoming environment tailored to each pet’s personality. Since I don’t have pets of my own, your pet will have all the attention and space they need. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection, and I keep a close eye on their health and wellbeing throughout their stay. Whether in your home or mine, my priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own.

“Maria was fantastic! She spent time to get to know Apollo before the appointment and asked all the necessary questions to make sure he was as comfortable as possible and she knew all his info and habits! Even when Apollo was restless and would not sleep being that it was his first time away from home, Maria stayed up with him on the couch so he was able to snooze. A great home and a warm pet owner I wouldn't think twice before leaving my little guy with Maria again”

Newport pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mikaela, her husband Alex and son provided a loving and caring home for our anxious goldendoodle. Our dog does not like being alone so I am so glad we found them. Dori was well cared for and enjoyed cuddles and walks. Mikaela frequently sent pictures and updates. Dori was treated as if she was their dog and fit right in. I plan to use her again in the future and highly recommended.
