About: You can count on me for: 🐾 Consistent communication and photo updates 🐾 Feeding, walks, playtime, and medications (if needed) 🐾 Respectful care of your home while you’re away 🐾 A calm, positive environment for pets of all ages and temperaments Hi there! I’m Alexis, a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver offering in-home pet sitting for dogs and cats. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family while you’re away. understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to keep their routine as normal as possible. Let’s set up a meet & greet so your pets can get to know me — I can’t wait to meet them!
“What a wonderful and pleasant experience i had with Eloise. She looked after my 2 dogs (1 is 5lbs the other is 140lb!) with ease and confidence. I definitely would use her again. She was very communicative with me throughout the times she cared for them.”

About: I've taken care and spent time with many breeds dogs, and have experience with drop-in visits, pet sitting, pet boarding, and dog walking. I have also trained my dog to follow simple commands such as "sit", "lay down", "shake", and "turn around" and have taught my dog and both my cats to come when they are called. I am back from college for the summer and have a very open schedule, so I have lots of time to spend with your pets! I have a big yard and live in a very walkable area. I have two cats and a little dog that all get along well with other animals.
“Ivelisse was a wonderful dog sitter, we are so grateful for her thoughtfulness and care of our pups 🐾🐾we got lots of pictures, videos of our pups in her yard from her ring camera, which was really nice. She is polite, caring, communicates well, asks questions, and clearly cares about the dogs she cares for. We will definitely use her again to take care of our dogs!”

“I'm so overjoyed and relieved I found Gaileen and her family. I am new to using Rover. In the process of looking for a sitter, I ran into unreliable sitters and sitters who were not a match for my pet and I. From the meet and greet to after my dogs first overnight Gaileen and her family put me at ease. At the meet and greet, she was professional asking preferences for my dog's comfort. Once the stay occurred, she messaged me with updates and pictures throughout the day. By the second visit, my senior dog seemed comfortable and happy to be there. She is a responsible , caring and professional sitter. I'm truly happy to have found her.”

“There aren’t enough words to state my gratitude to Valeria for watching my Luna Bear. She is the perfect sitter. I had a last min work trip and she came through for me. She was so attentive to Luna and sent pics, videos, did FaceTime and my Luna looked like she didn’t want to come home lol. She is my go to if I ever have to travel or need Luna to be watched. I will be booking with her again very soon. So grateful to have found her ☺️”

“Arly helped us out in a last minute booking situation & she couldn’t have been more proactive, communicative & caring. Gus had a great time with Arly & we had so many wonderful updated & photos, everything was very well taken care of”

“The best with my girl Persephone. She was able to take her in very last minute and was very very flexible. I really appreciate all of her help and the way she was with Persephone during this tough transitional period. Loved all the pictures and videos she sent and I noticed that Persephone became less stressed overtime which I love. Highly recommend Madalys to everyone!”

“Melissa is a thoughtful and caring dog-sitter. She told me she loves dogs and it show in all her actions when she dog sat my labradoodle. She read him very well and met his emotional needs.”

“Catherine was wonderful with Josie, she attended to every one of her needs and treated her like the true diva that she is! She gave her her drops, her eye drops three times a day on schedule, sent me pictures and videos. I was hoping Josie would a still wanna come home with me and not stay with Catherine.!!!Sue w.”

“Alondra and her family were the best! This was the first time I used Rover or any pet sitting service for my pups and I’m really glad I found Alondra. My peanuts had a blast with her and the other dogs, and she really put me at ease when I was out of town, especially with the daily updates of both pictures and fun videos. Thanks so much, Alondra and to your family! If ever I need to be out of town for a long time, I’ll know who to contact.”

“My older spoiled dogs warmed up very easily to Elaine, and became relaxed and comfortable easily. I was delighted to see, as they were used to in home dog sitters and this was the first time I brought them to a sitter. Then when we picked them up they were very happy, peaceful and joyful. I knew they had received excellent care from Elaine. I highly recommend Elaine and will definitely use her services again.”

“Miki and her mom Miyako are great! My 16 months old black lab had a wonderful 5 night stay in their house. I received videos and pictures daily. It’s obvious that Miyako and Miki are comfortable with dogs and seem genuinely enjoying their company! I will return for sure!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs in many ways, including: dog walking, play dates with other dogs, overnight dog sitting when the family is traveling and need help to stay with the dog those days they are away from home, or sometimes I have the authorization to bring them to my house, and daytime care. Through those years taking care of dogs I had a privilege to take care of 3/4 dogs at the same time, providing individualized attention and care to each furry companion. Dedicated to providing love and affection, I ensure that every dog in my care receives utmost comfort and attention. Prioritizing your dog's happiness and safety, our time together includes enjoyable walks in the park, fun playdates with other pups, and plenty of cuddles. Rest assured, your furry friend will always be in capable and caring hands with me. I'm currently working part-time, having time to dedicate to the dogs under my care. I prioritize their well-being by scheduling regular walks, play sessions, and ensuring they receive the attention they need throughout the day. I adjust my schedule to fit their needs, whether it's taking them for walks in the morning before I start work, checking in on them during the day, or spending quality time cuddling with them in the evening. Taking care of these furry friends isn't just a duty for me, it's a source of joy and fulfillment that enriches my daily life. In my house, I provide secure, worry-free environment for your beloved pets. I have a medium fenced backyard where I can take the dog to go potty and a great and friendly dog neighbor. My priority is to give the pet attention and make sure they will have love, and protection the whole stay!
Southport pet parents share their Rover experiences
Great overall experience! Thank you Jack for taking such wonderful care of our energetic baby Rex. Thank you also for the daily updates and videos, it was most comforting being so far away and being away from him for the first time. I would reach out again to Jack/Rover immediately if we are ever in need again.
