About: I am a professional pet sitter and dog walker who loves spending time with furry friends of all sizes. I've been doing this amazing work for the past 7 years. I am a fully remote worker with a highly flexible schedule and free weekends. Perfect for recreation, and perfect for my love of all furry creatures great and small. For drop-in visits, I care for pets in their own home to minimize stress and maintain familiar routines. I follow all provided instructions closely, ensure doors and gates are secured, and keep visits calm and focused. I am attentive to safety, cleanliness, and respectful use of your space. I will provide detailed updates with photos!

I’m so grateful for Sarah! She took such great care of my very shy cat, and coaxed him to open up to her. I had some out-there instructions based on my trip and pet car situation, but she handled everything perfectly. Very communicative and so sweet!

Isabel continues to exceed my expectations with how responsible, caring, and communicative she is. Her genuine enjoyment of my cats and the time she spends playing with them is fantastic for their mental and emotional well-being, which is obvious when I return and they are in such good spirits. She is extremely respectful of my space, responsible, and a fantastic communicator. An easy 5/5 for me.

Rodrigo responded quickly for a very last minute drop-in visit request! He was communicative, friendly, and was willing to go the extra mile when our stubborn girl wasn't ready to come out from under the bed. We'd love to utilize Rodrigo's services again for Beau and Daisy! 🐶🐾🩷

Summer was such a wonderful pet sitter for my cat! They were prompt and helpful in their communication, and knew all of the questions to ask to make the experience as seamless as possible. I’ve been back for one day, and I think my cat misses them already! They provided thoughtful and helpful feedback with each visit, and the photos they sent made me feel like my cat was in good hands. I would highly recommended seeking out Summer for your pet care needs.

About: I have been petsitting and dog walking my neighborhood pets for several years and had the privilege to work as a research technician who helped in husbandry at UNC Chapel Hills Division of Comparative Medicine canine unit. I love making new furry friends and gaining experience to help my pre-veterinary journey as a college student! I am a college student who has classes int the morning and afternoon and ask for your patience to fit the service around my class schedule! I am a flexible person none the less:) I have a fenced yard for my dog to keep them from getting out and my cat is an inside cat who stay in the upstairs bedrooms

Ella was so great with our cat! He can be shy and a little timid and warmed up to her immediately. Communication was awesome and we loved getting all of the cute pictures every day. Having Ella checking in while we were away gave us such peace of mind. We’d recommend her to anyone and will definitely be using her regularly!

About: Generally, I’m a dog lover. I have a reactive dog who has taught me a lot of patience that I intend to extend if needed. Pet care IS my routine. I work an inconsistent schedule and outside of those work hours, my girl is walked, fed and loves to play frisbee any second she can. For your pet, I’m looking to fit in some part time care. My schedule is flexible with enough notice as well. In a client’s home, I follow the dog’s lead. I the dog needs space, I can give it. If they need to play, I am happy to play. Whatever their schedule, that is my new schedule. I am punctual and thorough.

I couldn’t have asked for a better pup sitter for my little Ellie. From the moment I left, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring and capable hands. Elias went above and beyond to make sure Ellie was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of during my time away. I especially appreciated the regular updates, photos, and little notes about how she was doing—it really reassured me that she was enjoying herself and getting lots of love and attention. When family retuned home, Ellie was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It’s not easy trusting someone else with your pet, but Elias made the whole experience stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Elias to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!

About: I have been around animals since I can remember. From caring for them, pet sitting for friends, and helping train behavioral pets. Pets bring an energy and love to a home, so I understand how precious they are to you and your family. I can ensure you that I will bring that same care and love to your furry family member My current schedule allows me flexibility. Afternoons and evenings Monday - Friday works best for play dates, however, I can manage mornings depending on the travel distance and make some room on the weekend if needed. I understand that every pet and household has different needs. I always follow each owner’s instructions and care routine while making sure every pet receives the love, attention, and affection they deserve. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. My care consists of: -Leash walks -Playtime with pets own toys (if requested in the care routine ) -Basic obedience reinforcement (sit, stay, leash manners) -dog parks if there happen to be one in the neighborhood -unleashed in the yard( if the yard is fenced in and requested by owner) - Mealtime( at the owners discretion) - Refilling water bowl - Grooming ( if requested in sitting routine) - Medication administration (if you’re comfortable) -Photo and video updates -Daily visit summaries -Quick responses to owner questions Courtesy Extras: -Bringing in mail/packages -Watering plants -taking out/in trash bins

About: I grew up with dogs my whole childhood, and have been on rover for over 7 years. I know the basic training techniques and I’m comfortable with administering medications when necessary! I’m a freelance tailor so I have a lot of free time to spend with dogs I’m caring for. My schedule is incredibly flexible as I have no set schedule and spend majority of my week at home. I live in downtown Raleigh, close to Moore square park. There are many great parks nearby where I love to take the pups I watch!

About: I worked at a vet hospital and had the opportunity to be around, care for, and play with lots of different dogs and cats. I would administer medicine, clean areas for animals so they are safe, make them the most comfy, walk the dogs, clean litter boxes, even throw in a few treats when possible. I am currently a full time college student. I’m working on my bachelors in animal science. I’m able to have a wide variety of availability. I will make sure bowls are clean, food properly measured or full, water refreshed with every visit, tummies are full, and hearts are the happiest they can be. Every animal is always treated as if it were my own. Each animal deserves only the best of care.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up with dogs, cats, birds, fish, rodents, and farm animals. Caring for pets has always been a normal part of life for me, both through my own animals and through pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. Over the years I’ve raised my own puppies and kittens, cared for senior pets, and managed medications and special care needs. One of my own dogs (German Shepherd Dog) was diagnosed with cancer at a young age, and I cared for him throughout treatment until he passed away at age four. That experience taught me how important consistency, patience, and close attention can be when a pet isn’t feeling their best. I also currently care for my senior dog who requires medication. Today I have a labradoodle that I’ve had since he was a puppy, two cats, and my senior dog. I take pride in training my dogs to be well-behaved and socialized. In addition to dogs and cats, as stated previously, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals including lizards, snakes, chickens, rodents, fish, a sun conure parrot, horses, donkeys, alpacas, and pigs. I know every animal is different, and I do my best to learn their routines, personalities, and quirks so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet is young and energetic, elderly, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I am a career biochemical scientist and lost my job in April. I am now having a blast working as a full-time stay at home mom. My 1 year old son also loves pets and would need to occasionally accompany me! I am available pretty much around the clock. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I will follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any household rules you’ve established to the best of my ability. I know that consistency helps pets feel comfortable and reduces stress while their owners are away. In a client’s home, I will make sure pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, fresh water, and companionship. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. In my own home, pets are treated like part of the family. I maintain a safe, clean environment and supervise interactions carefully. I currently have a friendly labradoodle and two cats, so I’m very accustomed to managing different personalities, energy levels, and care needs.

Helena was wonderful while looking over my cat!!! I get really anxious being away from my little Walnut for extended periods of time, but Helena took tons and tons of photos and even stayed a little longer to give her some extra love. It was very reassuring knowing that Walnut was in good hands and getting loads of care & attention over the weekend. Thank you so much!!

Peyton is amazing with our cat Oreo. She is a very anxious cat so seeing pictures and videos of her being comfortable always makes my day. This time around my flight on my way back was cancelled and Peyton on such short notice was willing to help even though I didn’t have him booked to see her. That sums up how empathetic he is!

She stayed in communication when needed, left thoughtful & informative notes each visit, and took LOTS of pictures for us to see the fun they were having! We are so appreciative of her sharing so much with us so we didn’t feel like we needed to worry about the cats at all while we were away.
