About: I have taken care of animals since I was 12 yrs old. It’s a passion of mine to make sure all animals are cared for and comfortable. I’m currently about to retire and looking to purse my passion walking, visiting, and playing with animals. My schedule is almost always open for anytime. I have a fenced in backyard I have five friendly babies and one cat. I’m open to any service taking care of your babies at your location or mine.

About: My love for animals began when I was very young. I worked in a veterinary hospital for 4 years until I became a stay at home mom but the vet field was always my passion! I currently have my own cleaning business but work part time so I am available almost every afternoon and on weekends for your boarding and walking needs. I have a small friendly chihuahua in my own home but your animal can be easily crated if you would prefer. I do not have a fenced in yard but your fit baby will receive plenty of outside leash time.

About: I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles of all kinds, and rabbits. I will take care of and love your animals as if they were my own. I work from home, so I am able to do lunchtime drop-ins and evening drop-ins. If needed, I could also be available to do a morning drop-in. I will follow all directions given to make sure your animal is taken care of as you would. I currently have two cats and a dog of my own, and they are very spoiled.

“Anastasia was amazing! Very flexible with a weird last minute situation on my end and always pleasant, communicative, and easy to work with. 10/10 would hire again. Also great pictures that showed personality”

About: Hi, I’m Alyssa Reynolds! I have been dog sitting with my mother and father for years! I am well experienced and have had many clients! We love animals in our family and have many of our own! We have been on Rover for a while and I’m taking over the account to provide services in my college town! I will treat your pet as a member of our family! You won’t need to worry while you’re away. Your pet will be in the best hands with me! I want to provide the best and most comfortable experience for your pet, because I know how stressful it is to be away from family! Because of our work schedules and school schedules it’s better if the pups can hold it for 7 hours. We are home all weekend. During the summer months my daughter is home all day and able to care for dogs needing more frequent potty breaks. We have a large backyard with a pet friendly pool. There is plenty of room to run around. Dogs are not left outside when we are not home. We do have other animals in the house, so boarded dogs need to be ok with cats and dogs. We do request if animals have separation anxiety or tend to chew when left unattended a crate is left with them while being boarded.

About: Every time I meet a new dog, I love testing their skills. Communication is key in any relationship, and that's no different with dogs or cats. I take particular pleasure in getting a nervous cat or pup to warm up and be comfortable with their surroundings and other animals. I have a very active dog myself, so I'm comfortable with other large, high energy dogs! I also certainly don't mind taking a break with a dog or cat who has less physical demands, lol I have spent quite a bit of time around various types of dogs and cats. I follow the pace they set for interactions so they feel comfortable with my presence. If they need time to warm up, I'm happy to show them I'm safe. If they're rowdy and ready to play, I'll bring a toy for them to grab onto immediately.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently have two French toy poodles of my own. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, including puppies and older dogs that need extra patience and attention. I genuinely love spending time with animals and always make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, cared for, and well loved while their owners are away. I’m currently a college student attending school in New York and I’m home for the summer working part time. Because of that, I have flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. When I’m not working, I’m usually available before or after shifts and can work around most schedules with good communication. I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for dogs in both my home and a client’s home. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and any behaviors or needs each dog may have. I make sure dogs are supervised, secure during walks, and comfortable in their environment at all times. I also believe communication is important, so I like keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are safe and doing well.

“Ernesto is awesome with Aslan! Casting, attentive and all around amazing!”

About: I have had animals my entire life always making them a priority. From raising two puppies, I am experienced to take care of your pets and their needs. I also spent lots of time with my grandmother at her farm taking care of a variety of different animals with different needs. I am more than capable of caring for your animals with love, patience, kindness, and respect. I will give my free time to your pets and will make them a priority! I am free to care for you pets! I have a fenced in backyard with a dog door to their crate! I feed them twice a day. And always have play time at the end of the day before bed.

About: I grew up in a multi Newfoundland household. For my mother, a big thing was making sure that I could handle all of them at a time if need be. She had me walking them since probably when I could walk. From then, the dogs I walk or sit for are normally a lot smaller, but a big dog still holds a big place in my heart. There's a special joy in teaching a new puppy how to walk nice on a leash and seeing their happiness on a nice walk. Seeing the senior dog be able to go outside and sniff the roses or dandelions as it may be is absolutely heartwarming. I am by no means an expert on special needs dogs, but I do not have a problem learning to work with your animal whatever it's needs are. I'm taking a little break from work right now and want to do something I really enjoy. I walk my dogs every morning and most nights, but I know not everyone has the time to get their pups out there or give the dog the opportunity to take a break in the middle of the day. I always feel that my dogs are more comfortable in their own environment. I am willing to do the same for another pet parent. If you would like your dog cared for at my house, I do have a big yard fenced in and two fur babies.

“Mary was most attentive to our Beagle's needs which are many. Timely, not afraid to ask previously unanswered questions. Stayed in touch throughout her visit. I highly recommend Mary C. for you pup.”

About: Rover! Profile Hi everyone! My name is Rachel and I'm excited to announce that I now offer dog walking and drop-in pet care in Sanford, NC, and the surrounding areas! With nearly 20 years as a veterinary assistant and a vet tech degree from the Vet Tech Institute of Pittsburgh in 2009, I’ve dedicated my career to animal care. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals, exotics, and farm animals like chickens, goats, sheep, and a few horses. I’ve also been a professional detection K9 handler for over nine years, mainly working with Labradors, but I have also worked with other breeds such as Coonhounds and German Shepherds. I do have experience with other types of breeds when it comes to detection work, in the fields of search and rescue or even in a hospital or clinic setting while working in veterinary medicine. Services include: 🐕 Dog Walking 🐾 Drop-In Visits 💊 Medication Administration 🦴 Care for Senior or Special Needs Pets 🐈 Cat Care Throughout the years, I have pet sit and drop in to check on animals of friends, family, coworkers, bosses, and friends of friends. I loved meeting and getting to know everyone's pets I have watched several times over the years. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my priority. Whether they need checked in on after a surgery or procedure while you are gone, a quick bathroom break, exercise, medication or extra love, I’m here to help. I’m experienced with administering medications—including oral medications, injections, and subcutaneous fluids—and caring for pets with health issues or disabilities, including several of my own. Whether post-surgery care or medication management while you're away, you can rely on. I bring experience from both shelter/animal control environments and veterinary care, working with cats of all ages—from kittens to seniors with medical needs. I’ve cared for cats in both clinical and in-home settings, including those requiring treatment for a variety of conditions, many of which were my own personal pets. I am comfortable administering oral medications and injections, and I focus on keeping each cat as calm and stress-free as possible during care. I will do everything I can to make your cat or multiple cats/kittens feel safe and loved while you are away, just like I would for my own cats at home. I take pride in building trust and forming relationships, especially with more reserved or sensitive cats, so they feel safe and comfortable during each visit. At home, I have 8 dogs, 3 cats, a dwarf hamster, and 6 hermit crabs. Some are working dogs, others retired or couch potatoes. I love caring for all of them and will treat your pet like family—spoiling them during walks or dinner unless you prefer otherwise. Send me a message for meet and greats or bookings. I’d love to hear from you and I am looking forward to I work part-time as an experienced veterinary assistant and part-time as a professional working dog handler, which provides me with a flexible schedule to provide excellent animal care. This allows me to offer attentive, reliable services for your pets. I am available for drop-in visits, walks, and in-home care most weekdays, with extended availability in the afternoons, with some evenings and weekends. I strive to remain flexible and accommodate each pet’s routine and individual needs. I provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs while closely following the owner’s instructions and preferences. Whether in your home or during walks, I prioritize maintaining your pet’s established routine to ensure comfort, consistency, and reduced stress. My goal is to keep each pet as calm, happy, and stress-free as possible during every visit. I remain attentive to behavior, safety, and environmental factors at all times, creating a secure and positive experience.

About: I've been pet sitting for some family friends for the last 4 years and have watched dogs of various breeds for 4 different families. Watching both dogs and just recently in the last year cats. So far I've watched up to 3 dogs at a time. I'm happy to take them out for walks, make sure that they go to the bathroom, that they've eaten, medicine taken, and their water bowls are always filled. I've watched both senior dogs and young dogs. If your sweet fur child has any need any specific needs that need to be followed just let me know and I'll make sure it's done! I'll also make sure to give you updates on anything that happens! Like when I get to your place, when I'm about to leave, if your furry friend gets sick, has an accident, or just general update how well they're doing. I'm also working to get a pet cpr certification. I do ask that before I watch your furry buddy that I come over for a short visit before the scheduled date to meet your furry friend, so you and your furry friend can both trust me, and we can discuss any specific details and get a key to your house if needed. I'm a single game developer and artist who works from home. So I've got a good amount of free time throughout the day, where I can stop working and drive over to help out if your in need of any. If your someone that works an early morning shift and you need someone at your house by 6 to 7 AM at the latest to let your dogs go to the bathroom, make sure they're fed, medicine taken, or take them out for a short walk. I can be there. I can promise you that I'm a rule follower. If you tell me not to do something I won't do it. If I am unsure of something I can promise you that I'll send you a text or give you a call to get your input on whatever it is that I'm unsure of. I'll also make sure to give updates, and let you know when I've arrived and when I'm leaving. I'll also make sure to let you know if any accidents happen, and clean up any mess that may happen!

“Amanda is wonderful! She’s walks my lab twice a week and we are so grateful for her. She always send us a picture and makes sure he has water in his bowl when she brings him home. Thanks Amanda!”
