About: Hi, I’m Cassie! I’ve been pet sitting for over 4 years and have experience with animals of all ages from playful puppies to sweet senior pets who need a little extra care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs medication, a slow walk, or just some cozy company, I’ve got it covered. I'm reliable, easygoing, and happy to work with your pet’s unique needs and routine. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work as a behavioral tech at Mission Health and have availability in the afternoons, evenings, and full availability on Saturdays and Sundays for walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. I make it a priority to give each pet the time, attention, and love they deserve. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I prioritize making them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I respect the home environment by keeping things clean, calm, and consistent. I stick closely to each pet’s routine whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or bedtime rituals to help them feel secure while you're away. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, and I keep owners updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind.

We had a fantastic experience with Alyssa and her husband Brian! They are sweet, welcoming, and their property is stunning and perfect for pets. They took such great care of our dog Mona and sent us so many pictures and videos throughout her stay. She had so much fun she didn’t want to leave. We would not hesitate to book with them again.

Cindy was the ABSOLUTE BEST. I have never felt this secure leaving my dogs under someone else’s care. She was so sweet and attentive, and made my nervous pups so comfortable. They seemed to have a great time there. She gave me the nicest photo updates too. I think I just found my go-to sitter in Asheville. 1000/10 recommend ♥️🥰🐾

About: I have always been very passionate about animals and grew up caring for them anyway I could. Over the years, I’ve had experience caring for a variety of animals, including rehabilitating wildlife. I regularly care for family pets when they are out of town and really do enjoy spending time with the animals. I have fostered both cats and dogs through AHS, and brother wolf which gave me experience with medical care, administrating medicine, and being able to handle animals with different needs and personalities. I am very committed to being able to give your pets a comfortable and safe environment while with me. I currently work part time so I have lots of time for the animals! I have my own pets at home so I have a general understanding of what is needed and I have cared for a variety of pets. I do prefer to board at clients homes, where animals are in their own homes and more likely to be comfortable. When in a clients home, I absolutely treat the space and pets as if it was my own. As a pet owner myself, I know how it is always worrying about if your pets are safe and being cared for. My goal is to give you peace of mind by by providing reliable, and compassionate care for your pets while caring for your home. I am always happy to communicate, give updates, and answer any questions so please feel free to reach out if you’d like to know more!

Katie and Preston were so good to my puppy, Mona! They sent cute pictures and daily updates as to how she was doing that eased my nerves while I was away. They were additionally very accommodating and understanding when pick-up time kept getting pushed back due to multiple delays for my flight home. I never had any doubt that she was getting great care, and will definitely book with them again!

Molly was very well taken care of. She felt comfortable with the other dogs and enjoyed running in the yard. They provided me with some information about what further training would be helpful. I am working on that. I also felt very comfortable in their home. I hope she can stay with them again!!

About: As a remote Registered Nurse (RN), I bring a clinical eye to pet care. I notice subtle changes in behavior or health that others might miss. I’m comfortable administering medications in any form, from pills to inhalers, and my own pets are on daily medication routines so it’s second nature. My background in farming gave me hands-on experience with animal health and handling, and I’ve worked with my own dogs on training from puppyhood. I’m home all day, every day, so your dog gets constant attention and care, not just a place to play and sleep. I work from home Monday through Friday, 9 to 5, with a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time in the mornings, evenings, and throughout the day. I have lots of time for walks, potty breaks, and playtime, and my job allows me to step away whenever your pup needs attention. I can work from my office or the couch, wherever your dog is most comfortable. On my days off I tend to stay close to home, and if I do need to run an errand I won’t be gone long and can always accommodate you and your dog’s needs. I share my home with three animals who are very well loved. Haddie is my 7 year old spayed terrier mix, about 22 pounds, and my two cats are Zuzu, a spayed senior, and June, who is 4 years old and also spayed. Each of them has their own dietary and medical needs, so I’m already in the routine of specialized diets and medications. Your dog will fit right into that level of care. Haddie goes out every two to four hours and we walk together every day. There’s also plenty of backyard playtime. The backyard is not currently fenced, but a fence is going up soon. In the meantime I have a post with a long leash line in the yard and keep Haddie on a harness. I am always outside with her when using the leash line and never leave her unattended, and will do the same for your dog. My home is clean, open, and pet friendly. The furniture and beds are fair game for your dog. I do have a dedicated cat room with a gate that only the cats can fit through, so they always have their own safe space. All of my houseplants are pet safe as well. I also live at the end of a dead end street near the cul de sac, so it’s a quiet area with only local traffic and no busy roads nearby.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life! I also worked in a dog kennel in college. Love being around animals as much as I can! I work a full time job so I primarily would have more time on weekends but I can make mid day trips home for potty breaks! I let animals roam around my home so they can feel comfortable. I have a large dog bed and food bowls already here along with a few toys and treats!

Kinsey was AMAZING SPECTACULAR SO WONDERFUL on our wedding weekend. She was so gracious and flexible, hosting not just our dog but, at various points, both our officiant's dog and our neighbor's dog as well (they all know each other and we cleared it in advance). She was communicative and kind, shared all kinds of fun photos and updates and even ferried our pup to and from our venue so he could participate in our ceremony!! She and her family will always hold a special place in our hearts for our special day and we can't recommend her enough.

Jessica and John were amazing! My pup Ruby had so much fun with them - exploring the woods and trails outside and cuddling on the couch with their two girls! They are communicative, professional, and their love and care of dogs is evident! I had some travel delays and they were really understanding and flexible in coordinating pick up which was such a relief. Looking forward to her next stay with them!

Madison was amazing. She not only provided boarding for Ranger, she treated him like one of her own pups. She was extremely communicative, sent pics and videos, and played with him a ton. She took him on little excursions, and provided toys to play with. The most telling was when I picked him up, Ranger greeted me, but went back to give her some love also. I'll definitely book with Madison again.

I never once worried about our pup and knew she was in the best of hands. Our dog went on so many adventures and got so much attention that I think she was sad to come home! This was only our second time using Rover and we feel like we hit the jackpot with this family! You'll do yourself and your dog a big favor by booking with Micah :)
