About: I have been a dog mom for the past ten years, and a pet sitter for friends and family for the past 5 years. My boys are 7year old and 10 month old golden retriever brothers Zeus and Percy. Golden retrievers embody the phrase ‘gentle giants’ and they have provided me the sweetest companionship. I enjoy taking them on walks and nature hikes locally, watching them go absolutely bananas at the beach, dressing them in matching outfits, and trying to teach them to share their toys. I am comfortable with a wide variety of breeds, and have experience with specialized diets, medications and many ‘quirks’! I’m currently a SAHM in the Lincolnton area. I have pretty open availability for pet care throughout my day with a courtesy 3 day notice provided. Regular feedings including dietary preferences. Stimulating walks with plenty of sniff stops! Sensory play including color appropriate toys to encourage playtime. Grooming if needed, cuddles and snuggles!
About: I’ve always loved animals and have grown up with family pets. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to adapt to each dog’s personality and routine. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe and loved, especially when away from their family. ❌ Cat services unavailable (allergies) As an online student, I have a flexible schedule and can work around your needs. I keep my availability updated, including time reserved for school and finals. Your dog’s safety comes first. I follow your care instructions, observe behavior closely, and send updates so you know they’re doing well. I’m best suited for dogs with routine care needs and cannot provide extensive medical or specialized care. If you have any questions, please reach out!
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs! I have been caring for pets of my neighbors, friends, family and my own for 9 years. I watch pets full time so I have full availability! Monday-Saturday all times of the day works for me. If you need a last minute appointment I would be happy to take it! I am happy to take care of your dog in your home. That way they have a sense of familiarity, peace and comfort. I also love going on strolls especially with a dog!
“Jen is amazing. We felt instantly at ease upon meeting her prior to this weekend’s check-ins with our dog. She was very communicative and spent more time and care than was expected. She’s a rare one, and we look forward to reaching out to her in the future. Many thanks, and see you soon!”

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Growing up, I had dogs, cats, a pig, and a variety of small animals, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. For more than 20 years, I've provided pet and house sitting for friends and family, caring for everything from farm animals to energetic puppies, senior pets, and cats. I'm comfortable with pets who have special needs and have experience administering medications, including oral medications, allergy injections, and insulin shots. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, drop-in visits, or overnight in-home care, I can accommodate a variety of schedules while making sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care. When you're away, I'll treat your pets and your home with the same respect, patience, and love that I would my own. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. I work from home full time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable drop in visits, midday walks, and in home pet sitting throughout the week. Because I work remotely, I'm able to be flexible with visit times and can give your pets the attention and companionship they deserve. While I don't offer boarding, I'm happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel most secure. Your pet's safety and well being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to follow your care instructions closely. Whether it's administering medications (if needed), maintaining feeding schedules, reinforcing training, or simply providing a calm and reassuring presence, I strive to make your pet feel safe and cared for. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I provide confident, compassionate care for all dogs, including pups with fear, human‑aggression history, dog‑reactivity, or high working‑breed drive. I’m a naturally fast walker, I love staying active, and I’m comfortable handling dogs who need structure, patience, and clear communication. I’ve personally owned and rehabilitated dogs across the spectrum — from easygoing family companions like Goldens to complex working mixes. My current dog is a Malinois/German Shepherd rescue, and before her I’ve cared for dogs with significant fear and aggression histories. I also rescue dogs, which means I have hands‑on experience with decompression, confidence building, leash reactivity, and helping nervous dogs feel safe. I work from home full‑time, which makes dog walking an easy and natural part of my day. My schedule is flexible — I can step out for lunch‑time walks, morning visits before work starts, and evening walks to help dogs wind down. Because I’m already home and local, I’m able to adjust quickly, accommodate last‑minute needs, and keep a consistent routine for your dog. I take safety seriously, whether your dog stays in my home or I come to yours. I live on a large multi‑acre property with plenty of space for structured, on‑leash walks and calm exploration. I also have a secure fenced‑in area for controlled outdoor time, potty breaks, and confidence‑building for nervous or reactive dogs. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I follow your routines and walk them in their familiar environment to keep stress low. My focus is always on safe handling, clear communication, and giving every dog a predictable, comfortable experience.
About: I have lived with 6 different cats and 3 different dogs in my life growing up. My mother was also a dog walker for years.

I am comfortable with with most pet cares in your home. Unless stated otherwise or there is specific pet care needs, I can provide the general pet care needs.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
