About: I have a 5 year old husky and pitbull mixed dog named xena as well as a 9 year Old cat named Lilly! I was raised around animals (dogs and cats) we would take litters and rehabilitate them until they were ready to go to their forever homes and we would also rescue cats and dogs and rehabilitate them as well! I am looking to be a full time pet care provider! I only have to take care of my dog as well! I look forward to giving you all the assistance and helping as much as I can! I will ask what your preferences are like times they need to go out or feeding times and keep them plenty of company on my visits and make sure they are greatly taken care of.

Elizabeth has house set for my two dogs twice and each time has been a great success. Elizabeth is wonderful with my dogs. Elizabeth is a great communicator and keeps me up to date as needed. I highly recommend Elizabeth as I plan to continue with her services for future trips.

After our recent move to North Carolina, we found ourselves in a position where we needed a pet sitter. Having never left our pets with anyone but family we were apprehensive as to who we could find, and trust, with our fur babies. We turned to Rover to find someone. After reading what seemed like hundreds of profiles and reviews - we carefully chose Allie. Allie was quick to respond and agreed to a meet and greet. Our rambunctious, and loud, retrievers met her at the front door where Allie scooped them into a hug and it was “love at first site” for our pups!! Allie was very attentive to our detailed instructions, asked for clarification, on anything she did not understand, and was concerned with keeping the dogs and our two cats on their normal routines. During our weekend away, we received multiple reports as well as amazing pictures. It was apparent that Allie cared for, and loved, our pets as if they were her own. Allie went above and beyond anything we could have expected - even befriending our “leary of strangers” cat. We cannot say enough about Allie, her obvious love and care for our pets, and the comfort she gave us to leave them with her!! Thank you Allie!!

Kate was amazing. Our dog, Buddy, is a sensitive, anxious fellow and just needs someone to be patient and loving with him and Kate did all that. I feel so comforted knowing we have her in our corner to care for our sweet Buddy in the future. Thank you, Kate!

We usually have family take care of our dogs but being new to the area, we no longer have that option. We weren’t comfortable with leaving our dogs in a kennel so we found Laura. Not only was she affordable, but she came to our place so our dogs can stay where they are comfortable. Laura was great and we loved the updates and pictures. She was even able to accommodate another night stay when we decided to wait a day to come home. Will definitely be using her services again in the future.

Victoria is very kind and dependable. She kept in touch with us, sending us pictures of our dogs. She was very prompt and intentional when any response was needed. She “gets” our pups and made sure they were comfortable and felt secure.

Blair was wonderful. This is the first time using her. ( she lives next door so it was extremely convenient). We've had the puppies for a month, this was the 1st time leaving them. They warmed up to real quick. Followed instructions. Will definitely use her again.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up in a homeschooled household with a dog and three cats, so being hands-on with pet care was just part of everyday life. As a kid, I was known around my neighborhood for walking dogs, pet sitting, and helping out wherever I could—even mowing lawns for neighbors—so responsibility and reliability were instilled in me early on. I also spent time working on an alpaca farm, which gave me experience caring for animals with different needs and personalities. In my adult life, I regularly help care for my sister’s three dogs, and since she’s a veterinarian, I’ve learned a lot about animal behavior, health, and proper care through her. I’m also very involved with my two nephews, so patience and attentiveness come naturally to me. One of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had was caring for our family dog, Toby, in his later years. As the youngest, it became my responsibility to make sure he was comfortable, safe, and well cared for as he aged. He lived to be 16, and that experience taught me a lot about compassion, consistency, and the importance of attentive care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I already structure my days around being consistent, active, and attentive. I’m used to building my schedule around responsibilities, so walks, feeding times, and check-ins feel like a natural part of my day rather than something extra. On a weekly basis, I regularly help care for my sister’s dogs, so I’m already in the rhythm of walking, feeding, and spending quality time with pets. I also keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they need without rushing. Overall, I enjoy having pet care as part of my routine—it keeps me active, present, and doing something I genuinely enjoy. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences—so your pet feels safe and stress-free in their own environment. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship, not just the basics. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I provide a clean, calm, and safe environment where they can relax. I keep a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and bathroom breaks, and I’m always attentive to their behavior and needs. I make sure they feel included and comfortable, whether that means active play or just relaxing nearby. No matter the setting, my priority is making sure each pet feels secure, cared for, and happy while you’re away.

About: i’ve always had a passion for animals. i try to make sure all animals are happy and loved by me especially when taking care of them. i never want an animal to feel sad or alone and it pains me to see all these stray cats and dogs around knowing that i can’t take them all in. I recently graduated from Coastal Carolina from the veterinary assistant program, i plan on fulfilling my dreams on becoming a veterinarian and hopefully one day i can save the lives of animals. I will give them lots of attention, i will try to play with the pets. i will give them lots of cuddles and affection and overall make sure they know they are loved.

About: I've taken care of dogs and other animals since I was in elementary school. I have rescued three dogs that have been of various sizes, temperaments, and have had various needs. They have all been successful at going past expectations and have been remarkable fur babies! I'm currently working from home and have a lot of free time to spend with your sweet fur baby as needed. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I have experience with high energy and old dogs as well. I have been a house sitter and dog sitter for a private client since 2019.
