About: Hey there my name is Danielle, I have taken care of dogs of all ages ranging from puppies going through their first heat to senior dogs with lack of abilities. Growing up I had all sorts of pets in my home and enjoyed sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. Also one of my first jobs was at a dog boarding and day care facility. I love all breeds of dogs and cats and just want to keep them happy and healthy and have a fun time. I am new to the area and do not have a set schedule yet. I am free during most week days during typical working hours. I love the outdoors so any chance to get some sunshine. I have a fenced backyard, and my dog is friendly. I do not leave dogs unattended outside because I want to be sure they won't try to escape the yard or dig holes. When in a client's home I am sure to read all instructions given prior to my drop in. I make sure that the their pet is given my full attention during my time there. If I have any questions I am not afraid to ask. I will also send updates and photos if requested.

About: I've cared for dogs and cats growing up my whole life. My family was always rescuing a different dog or cat off the streets so I've enjoyed all breeds. Now that I have a family I don't have any pets but would love to fill my evenings and weekends caring for yours! I can also do during the day but would have to bring my two kids so they need to be kid friendly. Can't wait to play with your animals!🫶🏼 I am currently a stay at home mom so I have free time to play with your animals. I am free evenings and weekends for any animal care you need.

About: I have always loved and cared for animals. My personal experience actually started with my first love Sancho- a rescue chi that taught me how to manage and care for a dog that had been abused and needed special attention. At the end of his life he dealt with congestive heart failure so was on several medications, and peanut butter was the only way he would take them. I also became proficient at administrating medications. Really hard to lose a pet but just makes you realize how much love they provide you. Thoughout the years I have cared for friends and family’s animals while they were out of town or housesat for them as well. My latest adventures have been with Trusted Housesitters, and the past 3 months I have been graced to travel far and wide taking care of people’s pets and homes while they were able to relax and travel themselves knowing I was keeping their house and pets safe and sound. My experience included spending time and caring for all different types of dogs and different personalities from bull terriers, mixed breeds, frenchies, sherpards down to tea cup poodles all sizes and breeds. The responsibilities included feeding, administering meds, exercising and caring for the owners pets while I was staying in their home. I truly found my passion in life caring and loving for pets. I would love the opportunity to care for your animals. I am currently very flexible with my schedule. I can stop over and feed and walk and spend time with your pets as needed. Or I can watch and take care of your pets overnight at your house just depending on your preference or needs. I can visit your home to care for your pets so they can stay in comfort of their home. I can also exercise them if needed. I can also stay overnight with your pets.

I am happy to come to your home for potty and play time for your animals during the day! Typically I go morning and evening to check in, play, potty & feed & water.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, currently with 3 dogs ranging from 4 lbs to 65 lbs, 4 goofy cats, and enough fish tanks to rival a small aquarium in my home. When I left the US Army in 2012, I started working with animal rescue organizations and it became a passion of mine. I will provide intensive home care to geriatric dogs with complex health needs, including cancer, seizures, tracheomalacia, and diabetes. I have experience with puppy training and caring for adult dogs of all sizes. I have also cared for cats, lizards, turtles, horses, and a variety of fish! Whatever your pet care needs are, I’m certain I can take good care of your furry family. I work full time Monday through Wednesday, and am available for pet care Thursday through Sunday with flexible hours including early mornings to late evening. I prefer to meet your pets before the first appointment, so that I can see their environment and be familiar with their daily routine in order to best care for them.

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of many different kinds! I have taken care of both geriatric & adolescent aged animals. As well as having experience with animals who have special needs like blindness, deafness, and giving medication. I hope to meet your babies soon! I'm currently working full-time but wanting to supplement my income with jobs before and after my work hours during the week and on the weekends. PS. I will be in school starting August and will have more availability during the week then! I will not be able to provide sitting services for any pets inside of my home as I already have multiple animals like cats, dogs, chickens, and fish at my home.

About: My name is Alexandria, and I’ve had a passion for animals since childhood. I grew up helping on a farm until I was 12 and began working for a dog groomer at 14 which i stopped around 16, gaining valuable experience in animal care. I currently have two German Shepherds and three cats, and I’ve always been the go-to sitter for family and neighbors. Whether it's walking, feeding, or providing special care for senior pets or puppies, I bring love and dedication to every pet I care for. Currently on summer break from college and working part-time, I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. Whether it's daily walks or playtime, I can easily accommodate any pup or kitty into my routine. My schedule allows me to give them the attention and care they deserve, ensuring peace of mind for you while you’re away. While I don’t have a fenced yard due to Hurricane Helene, I’m happy to walk your pet using your preferred method. If your pet has access to a fenced yard, I’ll keep a watchful eye to ensure they’re happy and safe while they run around. I prioritize their well-being, making sure they get the exercise, play, and attention they need, whether it's on a walk or in the yard.


About: Why should you consider entrusting your precious pup to my care? These 7 reasons may be important to you: - Your dog(s) will have 100% of my care and attention! I only host one client's dog(s) at a time, and I don't have any pets of my own (just great memories.) When your pup stays with me they'll feel like it's their home away from home, where they're loved and cherished.. My rate is higher than some because of this limitation; in return, my dedication to your pet's personal needs is unsurpassed - as you can see from my excellent reviews. (NOTE: I will take care of up to 2 dogs from the same family.) - I am a totally devoted dog lover. Dogs come first in my book. Caring, paying attention to the the ways in which they communicate, ensuring they are happy, calm, secure puppies... makes me happy! - I'm quite comfortable with very large dogs, and also have experience with dogs who experience separation anxiety issues. - I follow your directions! Your wish is my command regarding food, walks, verbal commands to use, toys, and any other special instructions. - I am a mature, dependable adult; have raised children; own my own home; no smoking, no drugs. You can trust me to make responsible decisions in an emergency. - I have a big yard that outdoorsy dogs really enjoy for potty breaks, playing catch, soaking up the sun, and supervising squirrels. - I have a quiet home (kids grown, beloved pets long gone) where I spend most days doing internet research and writing; lots of time for hanging out with and being a companion to your pet(s). I'm also within a short drive of the dog park and hiking trails, if that's appropriate to your pet's disposition and exercise abilities. Why I love dog sitting My family always had dogs: everything from Great Danes to Pomeranians, from show dogs to rescue dogs. Personally I have always felt a strong bond and mutual understanding with dogs. Since my last dog passed away, I have looked for the opportunity to spend time with canine friends, and Rover has provided a great opportunity for me to do just that. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, and have special understanding of dogs with separation anxiety and geriatric dogs. Meet my pets No other pets here - just yours! Looking forward to meeting! About my yard I have a big backyard that has lots of areas to explore all fully-fenced and dog friendly. The back yard is great for quick rest-stop needs (eg, if nature calls in the middle of the night) and on beautiful days it's nice to just hang out there and watch the squirrels and birds in the trees. My experience administering medication I'm comfortable administering oral and noninvasive medications, but not comfortable doing injections. When I'm caring for a pet I really enjoy their company, so spend most of the time hanging out with them or taking them places with me, if appropriate depending on the pet. If your pet has special needs like separation anxiety or a strict medication schedule, I plan my schedule around their care and comfort. I have a big, fully fenced back yard that is wonderful for sniffing around, playing fetch, watching birds and squirrels, and hanging out together when the weather's nice. In the house your pup is welcome to hang out wherever I am at the moment - kitchen, desk, bedroom. Sleeping arrangements will be per your instructions.

About: As a mom, I understand responsibility routine, and gentle care. Your pets will feel right at home with me. Whether it’s daily walks feedings, play times or cuddles. I’m flexible and affordable and happy to accommodate your schedule. I typically do pet visits early morning lunch breaks evening and weekends. All pet visits will work around what is normal routine for their animal. Taking care of pets isn’t something I just fit in at something I enjoy and plan my week around. Sticking to a pets routine is what I find in the animals best interests. Feeding them, walking them playing outside and snuggles as if they were their own family.

About: I grew up with all sorts of animals- dogs, cats, bunnies, fish - pretty much everything! ☺️ After college I adopted my first pup- Harley, a miniature pinscher. He was my baby!! Over the years, my husband and I rescued 3 more mins pins: Rudy, Gatsby and Lulu. They were the most fantastic little kiddos and our whole life for many years! Unfortunately we just lost our youngest, Lulu. This was the last of our pups to go over the past 6 years. It’s been really difficult saying goodbye to all of them and we need to take a break before we bring a new pup home. However, we are huge pet people and we really miss having a 4 legged friend around. So, we’d love to be able to love and care for your fur baby while you’re away!! I work from home so will be able to spend a ton of time with your baby. We have a good size fenced in yard and we love taking walks. So there will be plenty of outside time. I do have 2 little girls- 7 and 2.5 years old. They have lots of experience with dogs and absolutely love them! So as long as your dog is good with kiddos we are great 😊 I work from home so have plenty of availability throughout the day. I have 2 young kiddos that are in daycare/elementary school. So other than dinner/bedtime and a few evening activities we’re around. We have a good size backyard with 8 ft fence. We can crate your fur baby if needed or we have baby/dog gates and could leave him/her in a larger space if preferred if we’re gone. During the day, your pup can hang in my office while I work if they prefer ☺️

About: I have been volunteering at animal shelters all over the East coast for almost 20 years and have a Chihuahua mix rescue of my own who is my whole world. I grew up with large and small dogs, cats, frogs, hamsters, and horses. I will care for your animals as I do my own! My number one priority is to put your mind at ease and keep your pet happy and healthy. I know first hand it can stressful finding good care for your pets, so I pride myself on being communicative, attentive, and providing top quality care. I work full time with some flexibility, and am home during lunch everyday, but am most available on weekends. Due to the nature of my job, some weeks I am more free than others so don’t hesitate to reach out! I will treat your pet and home as I do my own. I love all types of dogs and understand some may require different care than others. Each pet is just as unique as we are! My dog Declan loves to play with dogs big and small. Please let me know if your dog does NOT do well with small dogs.

About: I have worked at a dog boarding and daycare facility on and off for eight years and have loved it! I was part time while I was in high school and worked during holiday breaks while at university. At the end of the summer, I will be graduating from Clemson and will be working as a manager at the facility I grew up working at! I have a dog of my own named Banjo, and have dog sat for various families in the past. I can administer medications (including insulin). Additionally, I have taken a Canine Health, First Aid, & CPR course, and a Dog Body Language Course with PACKPRO Training. I truly care and love all the pups I have gotten to work with over the years, and I hope I get the chance to love on your furry baby! Starting in August, I will be working full-time, but I will have flexible working hours and will be able to accommodate to your pets needs. During the summer, I will be working almost full time, but also will be able to work with you to make sure your pet is taken care of! I have years of experience working with dogs and truly care. I can crate your pup easily if needed. I have experience giving medications including intra-nasal vaccines, insulin, and medicine in pill form.

About: I have had a life time of dogs in my life, I feel their eyes show you everything. They deserve the best care, dignity just as a person would. With a lot more cuddles. I am currently not working and don’t plan too. My schedule is very flexible. My weeks and weekends are open and I would look forward to meeting you!! I prefer to walk the dogs, I like exercise. I have a grassy area in back they can play around. I would like to walk dogs, always important is water!

About: I've raised and trained dogs most of my life from puppy care to seniors, as well as animals with medical issues. I was a breeder of Gordon Setters for many years. I love the company of dogs and getting to know their personalities. I especially love seniors, as I wish for them to know they are loved in their twilight years. I work part time from home and have a flexible schedule which allows me to work around my pet client needs. Most times I am available last minute as well. I ask for detailed information with any special needs. I spend time interacting, playing talking, petting, and love curling up on the couch with mu client's pets.
