“Margaret did an amazing job with our pets! She stayed overnight in our home and gave tons of love to the “kids”. Received many photos of happy pets and updates. She was very quick to respond to my questions. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was born! I mainly handle big dogs, but I have experience with smaller breeds and cats as well! I am a student and I work a part-time job, but I have plenty of breaks in between classes and work to care for your animals! I am also available on most weekends. I care for your pets in your home by maintaining their normal routine, food, water, play, litter care, and lots of attention, so they stay comfortable and happy while you’re away!

“Andrew was great! He took excellent care of Willow and sent photos throughout my time away. Willow peed on my couch while I was gone and he got supplies to clean it and it is like it never happened. I would recommend booking with Andrew.”

About: Reliable pet sitter for over 10 years and experienced in puppy training, senior care, medications, and routine-based care, providing attentive, personalized support for every pet. I want to make sure your pet receives loving care when you’re not there. I am a student but I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable walks and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I can make most any time or day work! I care for pets in familiar, stress-free environments, maintaining routines, cleanliness, and safety while providing gentle, attentive care. I prioritize safety by following instructions carefully, keeping environments clean and calm, and treating every home and pet with respect.

About: I’ve been very passionate about pet sitting since I was 14, caring for every type of pet from tiny fish to large dogs of all breeds and ages. Whether it’s keeping a senior dog comfortable, playing with an energetic kitten, or tending to a full fish tank, I love giving each pet the care and attention they need to feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Caring for my dog named Millie has made pet care an everyday part of my routine. From morning walks to playtime and feeding, I’ve learned how to keep a pet happy and healthy, and I bring that same love and attention to every pet I care for. At my home, I provide a safe, comfortable space for pets with a consistent routine of play, exercise, and meals while also ensuring that my dog and the dog I care for are comfortable together. For pet sitting in clients homes, I stick to their pets’ usual routines, offering the same care and attention to ensure they feel loved and secure while their owners are away.

“Pheobe was super easy to work with and did a great job with our three cats. She handled kitty digestive issues and wild kitten energy with grace and even kept the house tidy in the midst of cat chaos! Would recommend ☺️”

I have administered medications, applied and changed wound care, changed diapers, and cleaned up more dogs than I can count! I am ready and equipped with the knowledge to handle any situation!

I have two, hour long classes in the morning and one in the afternoon! I have plenty of time to play with your pets throughout the day!

“Sierra was wonderful with our two dogs! She took care of them like they were her own. She sent us pictures and made sure to keep us updated on how they were doing. We are looking forward to working with her again! Thank you!”

About: Along with cats and dogs I have cared for multiple reptiles such as pythons and geckos, rabbits, hamsters and ferrets. Your pets are family and I will care for them as if they are mine. I am currently a part-time sitter as I’m also in college. I’m free any time during weekends, but I work as a Vet tech for an emergency clinic during the week so my schedule on rover isn’t always accurate. I try to be as flexible as I can :) I will follow instructions given and always ask the client first before an action if unsure. Your pet will be given the best care and my utmost attention.

“We contacted Maryanne on very short notice on Labor Day weekend looking for an in house sitter and she came through for us! She did a fantastic job with our two cats and one dog. She communicated very well, sending pictures and updates periodically. We will definitely be using her services again! Thank you Maryanne!”

About: I’ve been trusted with the animals of many friend, family, coworker pets over the last 20 years. Prepared to feed, play with and care for your pets! I currently work full time at Appalachian State university but willing to travel during the day, before and after work in order to support family pets in need! When meeting new animals it is important to lay a foundation of trust. I have had pets my entire life and know that each animal has different routines and needs. My priority would be to ensure the animals feel as safe and secure as possible

“She is totally awesome with my 2 German Shepherds. She came over for a few hours and paid good attention for them. She really knows how to take care of these 2.”

“Autumn did a great job house sitting and caring for our three dogs for a week. Izzy, Roxi and Riley are very sweet but require care and attention. Izzy is the most high maintenance, she is a 5 year old Brussels Griffon and needs medication 7 times a day. Roxi is our 12yr old Min Schnauzer and has some special dietary needs and Riley is our two year old Lab with a lot of energy. Autumn took care of all of their needs and contacted me if there were any issues to discuss. She followed all of the advice we gave her on managing the dogs. In addition the home was in good order when we returned. I can recommend Autumn for house sitting and dog sitting for all types of dogs.”

“Katy was an AMAZING dog sitter! Our pup is a little anxious and she was so sweet making sure he was comfortable and happy. She sent us updates and pictures and was very quick to respond whenever I messaged her to check in. She stayed at our place and was a wonderful guest. We came home to a super clean house and everything exactly as we left it. Wally was definitely super happy when he was with her and I would 1000% use Katy again to dog/house sit!”

About: I’ve grown up with childhood dogs of all kinds from tiny chihuahuas and mini labradoodles to big breeds like Saint Bernards. I’ve learned that every dog is different, and their care really depends on their breed, personality, and routine. I’ve helped care for my siblings’ pets, looked after cats and dogs for neighbors, and I’m confident handling different energy levels, sizes, and needs. I’m also a runner, so I love taking active dogs on longer walks, but I’m just as happy keeping older or more anxious pets company and making sure they feel safe and calm. I’m currently on winter break from school and have plenty of flexibility throughout the week. I’m usually available for dog walks or check ins in the mornings, late afternoons, or early evenings, depending on the day. I’m great at keeping a routine and following instructions closely, and I’ll always make sure your pet is cared for on time. I always aim for safety and a trusting relationship with my pet owners. As so, I want to give full clarity that I recently moved into an apartment complex that does not allow pets in or about the premises. For any doggy day care needs, I would love to take your pets to a local park or walking trail for their socialization, exercise and mental stimulation. Please communicate if this arrangement will work for you and under what other conditions you would feel most comfortable.
