About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my well-rounded experience and genuine love for animals of all ages. I’ve cared for energetic puppies, mellow senior pets, and everything in between. I’m patient, observant, and always make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need—whether that’s playtime, a slow walk, or just some quiet company. I’ve also had experience with basic training, helping puppies learn good habits early on. I treat every pet like family and always aim to create a safe, loving environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. As a student-athlete at Montreat College, my schedule is busy but structured, which helps me stay organized and make time for what I love—caring for pets. Taking care of animals is actually a fun and relaxing getaway from the demands of school and sports. I already care for my own Maltipoo and cat, so it’s second nature to fit walks, playtime, and feedings into my day. It’s something I look forward to and take seriously, always making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always aim to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow the pet’s routine closely—sticking to their feeding schedule, walk times, play habits, and any special instructions you provide. In a client’s home, I respect the space and make sure everything is clean and secure. If pets stay with me, they’ll have a cozy spot to relax, plenty of attention, and time outside for walks and play. I focus on keeping things calm and consistent so your pet feels right at home, even when you’re away.

“Birdie’s first time with Savanna was a success! Savanna came the day before for a meet and greet and made friends with Birdie. She learned about Birdie and is kind and communicated very well with us. We will definitely call on her again!”


About: Hi there! I’m Lindsay - a responsible, experienced dog owner with a calm home, a fully fenced yard, and two friendly dogs of my own who love having company. I’m new to Rover, but not new to petsitting. I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for years, and I treat every guest like family. I work full-time from home, which allows me to offer consistent supervision and care during evenings and weekends - perfect for pet parents who need flexible, reliable support they can trust. My home is peaceful, pet-friendly, and designed to help dogs relax. I only host a limited number of dogs at a time so each pup gets plenty of attention, playtime, and space to decompress. Whether your dog loves fetch in the yard, long sniffy walks, or curling up on a soft bed, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the pack. I have hands-on experience with: Dogs of all sizes and temperaments Crate-trained and free-roaming dogs Feeding routines, medication schedules, and senior care Multi-dog households and managing introductions During every stay, I provide regular updates and photos so you never feel out of the loop. You’ll come home to a happy, tired, and well-cared-for dog who’s been treated like one of my own. I also offer dog walking and drop-in visits within a 15-mile radius — it’s a great option for getting to know me (and for your pup to get familiar) before booking an overnight stay. I love building long-term relationships with the dogs and families I work with. Let’s set up a meet and greet - I’d love to get to know your pup and welcome them into our routine! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own, so my day starts and ends with feeding, playtime, walks, and snuggles. I work full-time at home during the week, so I'm home in the mornings, evenings, and all weekend. That makes evenings, weekends, and holidays ideal for boarding or daycare. I only take on a small number of pets at a time to make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, calm energy, and time to decompress. Your pup will fit right into our rhythm here! Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family - they have access to cozy, pet-friendly areas, a securely fenced yard for supervised outdoor play, and a calm, structured environment that helps them feel at ease. I supervise all introductions carefully and only accept pets that are a good fit for my home and resident dogs. Feeding routines, medication schedules, and special needs are followed exactly as instructed, and I send regular updates so you always know how your pup is doing. Whether it’s boarding, daycare, or drop-ins, I approach every pet with patience, care, and clear boundaries to make sure they’re safe, happy, and well-loved.

About: My name is Brady, and I’ve been taking care of dogs and kids in my community for around 4 years; I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, cats, and other smaller pets. I have clients who I’ve sat for many times over the years, for days or weeks; and I can handle some of the grosser situations I can stay at the house with the pet or check on them as often as needed, all days of the week. I have more than enough time on my hands to spend with the animals if needed too! My dogs at my parents house get walked daily, and they’re checked on regularly. I try to do as many normal feeding procedures as possible.
“Caitlin is amazing with our beloved dog! We have been on a long vacation and she is reliably walking her, sending beautiful pics and good info about the experience each day. Caitlin is a GREAT dog walker and we recommend her highly.”


About: I have always had animals of my own that I cared for growing up including cats and dogs, horses, goats, birds, and bunnies! Around the age of 14 I started pet sitting ALL animals (including those stated earlier + reptiles, bugs, livestock, etc…) for friends and family, with eventually led to building a client base outside of that for the following 4 years :) Ive lived in Asheville for 2 years now- Ready to care for any critter! I’m jobless due to the displacement of hurricane, I am willing to really work whenever as long as it doesn’t interfere with my therapy appointments! I have a ‘pet go bag’ of extra leashes and collars, poop bags, aid, and toys for any and all critters just incase of emergencies!

About: Every day is a day full of fur in my world. My pets, and the pets I care for as an experienced veterinary technician. I love every animal like they are my own and always go the extra mile for their happiness. I am honored to be entrusted with their care if you will have me. I am currently taking a break from my career as a veterinary technician to pursue a master's degree. I am very flexible for this reason. As an experienced pet owner and veterinary technician I can medicate, give injections, crate, soothe, feed and play with your pets with ease and confidence. I have worked with scared rescues who no one else would sit for. I am good with animals from all backgrounds and situations. You tell me what your usual routine and preferences are and I will make sure it happens.

About: I’ve had and cared for dogs and cats my entire life. My neighbors call on me as they know how much I love their pets as my own.

I am not quite ready to get a new dog but would love to spend time with some furry friends with my current flexibility! I work from home, my husband works a lot and my 16 year old is busy being a teenager. I’m very flexible and can do doggy walks, overnights stays and even host dogs at my house. I have no current pets. I have a fenced in yard and a great neighborhood for walking dogs! Working from home allows plenty of time for extra snuggles and playing.

My patience with dogs and love for cats ensure that your furry friends will receive the best care possible. A few scratches here and there are no problem—I'm dedicated to making sure every pet feels comfortable and loved. As a full-time college student, I understand the importance of time management and reliability. I am available to walk dogs from 5-7 PM on weekdays and 12-7 PM on weekends. I am currently living in dorms, so I can not house any animals myself. I can provide a leash and doggy bags for walks if needed.

About: Hi everyone! I am new to Rover and just moved to North Carolina from Colorado. I am using rover to earn some extra cash as I pursue a career in counseling. I grew up in an animal loving family and have been around dogs my entire life. I am often the first choice when friends and family need someone they are comfortable with to take care of their pet. I grew up with German Shepards and Pit Bulls, making larger breed dogs my specialty, but I have experience sitting dogs of all sizes. If exercise is what your dog needs than I am your girl. I am very athletic and love to work out; A high energy dog is no problem. In conclusion I am an incredibly responsible and knowledgeable dog walker. Your pet will have a blast with me! I have no problem fitting pet care into my daily routine. I am a very structured person and have the ability to work with most client's schedules. My pets are all happy and healthy and receive daily exercise. I currently have three dogs and two cats that reside in and around my home, so I will not be able to bring more into my space. If I am sitting your pet in your home, I would use the same care and attention that I give to my own pets.
