About: Hey! I'm Sadie. I've lived in West Asheville for about 4 years now. I'm a former overnight pet sitter and dog trainer/handler at Evolutionary K9 in North GA. As well as a former Kennel Tech at a Daycare/Boarding & Grooming spot in Black Mountain. I have taken classes on Dog Cognition + Emotion through Duke University. I love animals and have my own 9 year old Siberian Husky who I spend most of my time with when I'm not working. I've been in animal care this for roughly 10 years. I have taken care of young dogs, senior dogs, dogs/cats with special needs, goats, snakes etc and would love to give your babe the care they need when you're away. I'm typically available for drop by walks, visits, boarding and general care throughout the week and weekends dependent on my work schedule. Thanks and look forward to meeting you and your pet! I have my own pup at home so I do not do overnight stays but I do boarding and I am flexible throughout the week/weekends dependent on my work schedule. I would be happy to drop by and feed, walk and/or play with your pets while you're at work, etc. (My husky is an escape artist so I am extremely careful and mindful when walking anyone's pets!)
“Ethan & Hope are wonderful sitters! They are kind and personable, keeping us updated on all the fun! They have two dog, Carlos & Honeybee who are so sweet and got along great with Gator! Highly recommend!”

“Adaira is incredible! She is calm and open. We were prepared to meet their other two dogs and Koda then joined the pack for 10 days! We quickly built trust and understanding. She even gave him some flair on Halloween and did a photo shoot 🎃 I truly cannot recommend her services enough. Koda got to go on plenty of adventures. I am so grateful! He loves her much. He made sure to say goodbye before he hopped in the car. Being such a smart dog, I can tell how much rapport they built.”
“Fernanda was wonderful! She made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She was very flexible and caring for Maggie and I would not hesitate to rebook her if I need pet sitting services again! Great experience.”

“Kristin and Seth did an amazing job watching our dog! They stayed in contact with us and sent pictures while we were gone. Our dog seemed to have a great time at their home. We would definitely recommend!”

“My dog seemed to really enjoy her time with Marnette, David, and Gouda. This was the first time we had our dog stay with someone who we didn’t know personally. I was nervous, but Marnette and David took very good care of our dog. They are trustworthy and kind. We appreciated check-ins and pictures in the morning and at night. Highly recommend!”


“Kaitlyn was fabulous! She sent multiple pictures daily with notes on the various activities with our dog, Abby. The stay was 8 days and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Abby was having a great time! We will be returning to Kaitlyn to care for Abby in the future!!”

About: I have taken care of pets as long as I can remeber. People ask me to help them with their pets all the time. Your pets are part of your family. I will treat them as the treasures they are. I am available every day from 7:30 am to 7 pm. With those hours it gives me a lot of time to keep your fur baby entertained and fed. I know that for my own clan of animals that I prefer to board them at home. I like to offer the same service to my clients. Kenneling at home keeps your pet comfortable in surroundings they are used to. I can swing by to feed them, walk them, and just keep them company at least twice a day.

About: I have been surrounded by pets my whole life. Growing up, we always had dogs, cats, and birds. When I moved to the U.S, I lived in the country side with many dogs and thousand of birds (literally). Now, I have a little Chihuahua mix; he is like my baby. I also help my friends sitting their dogs when they are out of town. I love animals; I like to play with them and give them a lot of attention. I have experience administering medication to pets either orally or injectable . I am educated and trustful person who will respect your home and your pets. I am able to pass a background check if it is required. I have a cellphone and my own car. My husband and I both work from home, so your dog will never be left alone. Our jobs are very flexible, which means we can take your dog for walks during the day. I have a very friendly old Chihuahua. My house is big, comfy and very clean. It's at the end of a cul-de-sac, so there's no traffic.
“I am so happy to have found Tiffany on here. Cam was in excellent hands and she clearly loved to play with Maggie. The two pups looked like they had been life long friends. Tiffany and Ryan were amazing! Five stars isn’t enough. Need to make a return visit to Asheville just so Cam can come back and play with Maggie. We got lots of pictures and updates.”

“Elizabeth was amazing with Tex! I got daily updates and Tex seemed to really enjoy himself at their home. Communication was very easy from a meet and greet beforehand, to drop off, updated throughout his stay, and pick up. I highly recommend Elizabeth if you need a stress free place for your pet to stay while you’re away!”

About: 25 years of heartfelt experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages, I bring genuine love and expert knowledge to every furry friend. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a wise senior cat, or anything in between, my deep understanding ensures compassionate, personalized care that nurtures their health and happiness. Every pet is treated like family, making their well-being and joy my top priority. Extremely flexible schedule, I am willing to travel, work remotely, willing to respond quickly, living on 1.5 acres, here to help with your pet needs. I have plenty of space to walk the dogs, a dog runner, crate, and one female cat named Bubbles. Bubbles will most likely stay in the basement where she thrives in her own space.
“Molly was absolutely amazing! “Fenced in yard” does not do her place justice. Her yard was our dog’s dream. Beautifully grassed and open for running around. Our puppy loved her puppy and she sent so many photos and videos of them playing together. Cannot recommend her enough!”

About: Hello! My Name is Justin Gardner. I have resided on a large tract of pristine farm land located 20 miles north of Asheville, sitting perfectly between Weaverville and Marshall. For anyone looking to give their dog a true country getaway, this is a paradise. If your pup doesn't always get the chance to fully experience nature, our wide-open spaces to explore and a fully fenced-off yard offer the ultimate safe freedom. Dogs have been a central part of my life since early childhood, and that lifelong passion continues today with our own beloved resident dogs. We understand dog behavior, respect their individual routines, and treat every guest like a member of the family. Whether your dog loves to run wide-open spaces or just wants to sniff the mountain air and lounge on the porch, they will find their perfect rhythm here. Working primarily from home allows me to provide attentive, full-time care and regular outdoor exercise. I can host overnight (Short or Long term) boarding seamlessly as long as owners provide their dog's personal items and necessary accommodations, allowing your pup to enjoy a safe, country retreat with all the comforts of home. Safety and socialization go hand-in-hand here. My dog Rocco, a friendly Catahoula Leopard Hound, has six years of excellent experience interacting with other dogs and is always eager to welcome new playmates. Playtime in our fully fenced yard is entirely supervised, and I can easily crate your dog for meals or bedtime to ensure a structured, safe stay.
“Nikki was beyond amazing with her care for our pup! Her home and property are a dog’s dream for endless running and outdoor time. She also made sure Asha got lots of great hikes on the nearby trails! Also, her dog is a wonderful play buddy! Nikki even gave us some goodies from her garden when we arrived and then made sure Asha got an early morning trail hike/romp early in the morning before we picked her up. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our fur-kid. Thank you, Nikki!!”

“Jen was a great host to our pup, Rocky! She kept us updated with how he was doing each day as well as sent daily pictures. I would definitely recommend Jen as a host: great communication, positive attitude, flexible schedule (ended up having to add an extra day) and reasonable prices. You won't be disappointed!”

“Great communicator with pictures and notes. Riley was well taken care of. Lovely house with a fenced in yard. Riley and Sage got along well. We will definitely use Sarah again!!”

About: Grew up with dogs, speak their language. I’m patient and active and just want them to be the happiest doggo they can be! Flexible schedule and am willing to build a relationship with your dog for next time you go out of town. My large fenced in yard rocks too! If you are comfortable with me doing outings, I have access to a 15 acre farm where they can run around. I never tire of fetch and frisbees, going for walks, and doing what I can to be sure they’ll sleep ok at night. They are our fur babies and should be treated as such! Let me know what their favorite things are, the commands you use, and I’m confident your pooch and I will be good buds by the time you get back :)

rayana was amazing with our pups. She took great care of them and love them while we were away. She kept us updated and sent pictures of them often, it faces us peace of mind to know they had someone who genuinely cares. I will be coming back to her again for sure.

We hired Zann to watch our dogs and were extremely happy with her service. Her communication was excellent — timely, clear updates and photos — and she took wonderful, attentive care of our pups. She was very flexible with scheduling and handled everything professionally and kindly. Highly recommend and would definitely use her again.

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 .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Many sitters in NC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
