About: I'm a high school math teacher and my wife works from home full time. Looking to watch after your little guys so we don’t have to get another one. Our dog Penny, has recently passed however we would like to keep her pictures and memory alive on this profile*. Most days I'm up early and dont mind being active and taking morning walks. Experience wise ive taken care of neighbors cats and dogs as a teen and have had 2 dogs myself over my adult years as well as turtles if you care about that. Dropping off your pet at my place seems like the best but I'm open to stopping by your place if need be. One of us is almost always at home full time to care for your pup. My wife loves snuggles and always looking for another blanket buddy We have a large yard and one friendly toddler looking for her next best friend. Overall it is a quiet home with lots of space.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From a young age, I helped watch and care for neighbors’ and friends’ pets, which taught me how meaningful—and rewarding—pet care truly is. Today, I’m a proud pet parent to three animals of my own, and I also have two young children, which has deepened my patience, attentiveness, and nurturing approach to caregiving. I believe in more than just meeting an animal’s basic needs—I strive to provide enrichment, comfort, and a happy, loving environment. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, general grooming, administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, and using positive reinforcement training. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a stay at home mom so I’m very flexible with my schedule! My little man will be with me during any morning or day time visits so animals must be okay with children. I’m very attentive with my own animals. I make sure they don’t get into anything and pay close attention to their needs. In any circumstance I would provide the same level of care to someone else’s pet.

About: I have always had a fur baby growing up and I can’t imagine not having one around now. They bring light and joy and love and I make it my life’s mission to show them the same! I have worked with senior dogs that have required medicines as well as ones that just need all the loves. I have personally owned dogs, cats and even rabbits and I’ve loved each and every one of them equally! My current fur baby is a blind cat who requires some extra attention but she just lives her life as though she doesn’t have this disorder. Your fur babies are in good, loving hands with me and I can’t wait to meet and snuggle with them! I’m currently working part time in the evenings Monday- Thursday. These shifts are only 4pm-9pm so I am able to do drop-ins before and after. For walks, I can do as early as 6am and as late as 2:30pm. Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays are all wide open! Your rules are my rules. If your pup needs to wear shoes and a coat on a walk I’ll gladly dress him/her to the nines! If they need to be fed and crated after the walk, I got you! If they need medicines administered I can do that. We will talk details when we meet!

About: Since I was 10, I've always loved watching and caring for dogs and other animals. I started by helping neighbors with their pets—feeding them, taking them for walks, and making sure they felt safe and happy while their owners were away. Over the years, I've learned to understand animals' moods and needs, whether they're playful, shy, or anxious. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to create a calm environment for pets. Because of this, I would be a great sitter—I know how to keep animals comfortable and cared for, making sure they get the attention and love they deserve when their owners can't be there. No matter the animal i’ll be there for them! I worked at a pet store for over a year which taught me a lot about any sort of animals and their health. Since I already have a puppy with my own schedule, i’m totally used to juggling pet care! I know how to fit feeding, walks, playtime, and rest into my day, so adding care for another pet would just be a bit of extra love and attention. My experience with my own pup means i’m great at keeping routines steady and making sure every animal feels cared for. It fits naturally into my schedule because im already a pro at managing a furry friend’s needs! Besides my pup, I balance that’s with a box turtle, two hedgehogs, three leopard geckos, two cats, and at my parents house I take care of their two dogs, and two fresh water fish tanks. I can take care of animals in lots of ways depending on what they need. Whether it’s walking them to make sure they get exercise and fresh air, house sitting so they have company and someone to watch over them, or just stopping by to check on them to feed, play, and give them attention, I’m ready to help. I understand how important it is to keep their routine consistent and make sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away.

About: Hello everyone, im Kim I originally started Rover 5+ years ago after moving down to NC. Now after completing school and starting my career as a first-responder I'd love to start watching your furbabies again. I have made several long lasting relationships from Rover and although I had taken a hiatus from Rover I still continuously stayed in touch with alot of individuals on here and their furbabies and watched them from time to time. I am now a first responder and im definitely busier then i used to be but I am an animal lover at heart and I understand how frustrating it can be if your gone for long hours because of work and you feel awful having them wait to go potty or not have any human interaction and exercise during the day or if you want to plan a vacation and can't bring them with you. Please take a look at my availability. Also feel free to reach out to me personally! With my job my hours are pretty flexible and when I'm not working I have alot of free time so If my schedules a good match I'd love to meet you're furbabies I am selective when choosing to have your pet stay in my home sometimes pets are more at ease when they are in an environment they have been accustom too and sometimes with new environment they become nervous or will mark territory so please notify me if that is something that has happened in the past or if you beleive your pet will be more comfortable having me come to their home of course I want to make sure my home is a safe space for your pet. I keep a clean and tidy home and would like to continue to in order to give your pet the best experience during their stay. I do have an open floor plan for all theor zoomie needs in addition to a fenced in back yard for sun bathing. I never leave any pets outside including my own unintended. Of course please give me a run down or a list of your expectations while I watch your animals in my/your home or while were on walks.

About: I've been an animal lover all of my life. I had cats for most of my childhood and early adulthood. They were my best buddies who cuddled and slept with me, as well as posed for drawings and paintings. About 18 years ago I adopted a pit mix, named Humble. He was the most gentle giant you could ever meet. He accompanied me on camping and hiking trips in Maine. He passed away a few years ago. Now I'm the lucky mom of a rescue dog named Chance. He is an 8 year old undetermined breed. He may be a Doxie mixed with Papillion. I rescued him from the streets of China. I was working as an ESL teacher in Shenzhen,China at the time. He is one of my best friends and I spoil him with lots of love, treats and walks. I am a certified yoga teacher, artist and pet care provider. I started out pet sitting as a side business to earn some extra money, but it has become so much more than that. It is such a rewarding job and a great honor to care for so many beautiful animals! I will take great care of your fur babies and your home. You can have peace of mind with me as your pet sitter. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I am usually available most week days and weekends ( except the ones marked off my calendar), for house sitting and drop in visits. I can walk your dogs and keep the house and yard picked up during my stays. I will spoil your pets with lots of love and attention Safety is always my first priority. I never leave pets unattended outside, make sure harnesses and collars are secure during walks, and never feed them anything but their food. I will give them your treats if you give me permission. I also make sure the floors and rugs if the home are kept clean and that their is nothing dangerous around that they could eat .. I am Extra careful!
