“This is either the 3rd or 4th time Jeffery has stayed with our critters in our home. He is just SO reliable, respectful, professional, and we have no worries when we're away. Our dogs and cat love his calm nature and that's exactly what our reactive boy needs. I hope we can continue to have Jeffery sit for us for years to come! I am just so grateful to have someone we can trust in our home with our kiddos.”

About: I started pet and house sitting in 2015 and have loved caring for furry, feathered, and even scale-y friends ever since. As a farm kid through and through, I'm comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes and have experience caring for nearly every type of pet you can imagine. I don't shy away from big animals (or big messes!) I recently completed my graduate degree and became a nationally certified Physician Assistant. While my training is in human medicine, I have experience caring for pets with complex medical needs, including administering injections, medications, and subcutaneous fluids. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and attentive caring for your pets, especially when they require extra support. At home, I share my life with two cats, Winston and Franklin, one of whom is an FIP survivor. That experience has given me a firsthand appreciation for the trust pet owners place in their caregivers and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pets are in capable hands. If you're looking for a responsible, dependable professional to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you're away, I'd be honored to help. Having recently completed graduate school, I currently have a very flexible schedule and can devote substantial time to caring for your pets. This allows me to provide attentive, personalized care and maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible. While I am currently unable to board pets, I am happy to provide care in the environment where your pet is most comfortable- their own home! I strive to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of companionship. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I understand the trust involved in leaving both your pets and your home in someone else's hands. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, so you can travel with peace of mind.
“Booked with Cameron for an evening away. He was very good with my three pups. He sent photos and asked questions that evening if he was unsure of something rather than assuming or guessing. I will be booking with Cameron again for longer trips away in the future.”

“Philip and Mallory are very friendly and easy to talk to, and took excellent care of my pup at my house. I got so many pictures and updates and I never had to worry my pup wasn’t being taken care of. My house was also in perfect condition when I returned, and they even washed the used bed sheets and towels. I will definitely use them in the future and you should too!”

About: I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort by providing a secure environment in both my home and yours. I follow your pet’s routine, ensure medications are administered as needed, and keep a close eye on their well-being. In your home, I respect your space, keeping everything tidy and secure. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I always make time for the pets I care for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care, whether it’s multiple visits per day or extended overnight stays. I ensure your pet gets the attention they need, whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just companionship. I tailor my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs, so they always feel comfortable and well-cared for. I am a dedicated pet sitter with a passion for caring for cats and dogs. I have experience administering medications, maintaining routines, and providing extra attention to senior pets or those with special needs. Taking care of your furry friends and making sure they feel loved and keeping your cat’s environment clean and stress-free, I go above and beyond to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priority!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life from my own pets to pets of friends and family, which includes being responsible for them from time to time. I’ve even had prior experience staying overnight and caring for animals that include dogs, cats, and chickens. I am a full time student in law school so my schedule depends on my classes and my school obligations for the week. However, I try hard to manage all bookings I get if the owners are willing to be flexible with times! I can care for your pet by walking them, playing with them, feeding them, hugging them, grooming them, and even staying with them overnight if that makes them more comfortable while you are away.
About: I’ve had cats and dogs all my life and have consistently been a primary caregiver. This ranges for when they were puppies/kittens all the way to senior age. I’ve also spent decent amounts of time the past two years pet sitting dogs and cats of various ages for friends and family! I’m currently in between undergraduate and graduate school so I currently just do online gig work. I make my own schedule so my availability is essentially wide open. In your home I’m always going to be very cognizant of the animals needs and their comfortability. If your pet needs exercise I am in great cardio shape and frequently run so I am always open to going on runs with your dog if they are high energy! I’m also very familiar with leashes and harnesses so if you don’t have fencing or if your pet is used to only going potty with a leash I am ready for that. I also love cats and will always make sure they get lots of love and attention!
About: Taking care of animals is my passion. I provide clear communication and follow all directions given. Every animal will feel loved and shown attention under my care. I am currently working remotely on a patent that allows me plenty of free time. I am available throughout the day and night to share my time with your pet. I volunteer at the humane society. I enjoy community involvement. Please let me know any additional important information I may need. If they prefer to be alone, their activity levels, area preferences, etc. I enjoy keeping the dogs active with walks, traveling to dog parks, and enjoying leisure time around the house.

About: For the past 4 years, I’ve provided loving, dependable care for cats, dogs, and birds through overnight stays, drop-in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and walks. Cats are my specialty! I’m very experienced with feline behavior, shy cats and multi-cat households. I love making pets feel calm and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and routines, including daily walks, companionship, and overnight care. In addition, I have hands on experience with tropical birds and understand the importance of patience, consistency and attention to detail when caring for exotic pets.

Oakboro pet parents share their Rover experiences
Five stars isn’t enough! Philip is incredible- friendly, relaxed, and instant friends with new pups. We had never left our puppy for more than a few nights, but had a two week honeymoon planned. Philip came over to meet Cabby before the trip, and his professional but warm attitude put our minds at ease immediately. He sent us pictures and updates while we were gone, gave our girl lots of love, and followed her routine (including medication) to give her stability. He also took great care of our home- I swear it might be cleaner than when we left! Without a doubt, the best experience all-around. We will absolutely be reaching out to Philip and Mallory when we start planning our next trip. Thank you so much, Philip, for taking care of Cabby like your own ❤️ and she sends kisses!
