“Christine did a perfect job with my dog, Poe! She was kind, very punctual, attentive to his needs, and a great communicator. Poe and I both felt entirely comfortable every step of the way!”
“Mallory was an awesome sitter!! She kept us up to date on every visit posting pictures and activities. We were traveling and she was so great answering our questions and making sure our pups were well taken care of! Highly recommend!!”
“Ashlee did an amazing job with my two boys. She sent a lot of photos that made me so happy to see while I was away. I can tell from the pictures they really loved her. She asked appropriate questions when things came up, which I really appreciated. It made it so much less stressful to be away from my babies. I would recommend Ashlee to everyone and would definitely hire her again!”
“Kristen was without a doubt one of the most kind, considerate, and helpful pet sitters. She took exceptional care of my dear Rosie, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’m not just someone who pauses to care for your pet; my love for animals goes beyond measure. I’m committed to ensuring that the time I spend with them exceeds all expectations. I’m a graphic designer - most work I do is from home. So my schedule is very flexible and on the go! I can work and sit in while watching your animal! 😀 I have a dog myself - she is hardly ever caged and is trained to stay out and behave accordingly. She is very energetic. But LOVES people and other animals.
“Grayson is amazing. I recently adopted a Great Dane who had a rough start to life and need someone who can help me show him how kind people can be. Grayson is the perfect person for this. Even when my dog jumps on him, he just laughs like he's never been happier. I feel so lucky to have him to look after my pup while I'm at work.”
“Alexis could not have done a better job helping me out this week. It was a last-minute request and she took care of my sweet girl beautifully! She was an effective communicator, prompt, and thorough in how she took care of her. I would not hesitate to use her again, hopefully soon!”
About: Looking for someone who will love and care for your animals like family? That’s me! With a degree in Animal Science from the University of Tennessee and 25 years of pet sitting experience—including work as a veterinary technician and barn manager. I bring both expertise and deep compassion to every animal I care for. I’ve looked after dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, mules, llamas, alpacas, goats, sheep, cows, chickens, turkeys, and emus. I treat each pet as if they were my own. I’m currently available full time and actively taking on new clients. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or has special needs, I tailor my care to meet their individual personality and requirements. If your dog loves the outdoors, I’m happy to include hiking or swimming in their routine—activities I enjoy regularly with my own dog. I began pet sitting at age 12 and have built a life and business around what I love most: caring for animals. As a self-employed professional, I understand the value of trust. I always leave your home cleaner than I found it and gladly handle extra tasks like watering plants, bringing in mail, and taking out the trash. My goal is simple: to give your pets the attention, safety, and joy they deserve while giving you peace of mind. Let’s chat—I’d love to meet your furry, hoofed or feathered family! I am available full time for pet sitting and do not leave for periods of longer than 4 hours. In addition to pet and house sitting I run a concierge service where I help people with various projects and never schedule long days. I care for your pets as if they were my own. I follow your instructions closely to ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for in your absence. I believe every animal is unique, and I let them guide me to what they need—whether that’s extra playtime, quiet companionship, or special care. Every situation is different, and I prioritize flexibility and individualized attention to make sure your pets are happy and comfortable at all times.
“Second time booking with Makayla and service was great as usual! Very communicative, followed all our care instructions, and was super sweet to our old boys. Thanks, Makayla!”
“Robin has been great for the multiple requests we've made. She followed instructions, clarified unclarities, and shared multiple pictures per visit of our cats and items, and helped picking up mails and deliveries, all of which are reassuring a lot!”
“Michelle did a fantastic job of taking care of our German while we were out of town. She was able to handle a large dog who basically had no leash etiquette and was able to give us the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation. Would highly recommend!!”
About: As a devoted dog mom myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your beloved pets. My own dog, Jack, is a big, lovable shepherd mix, so I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and dogs with big personalities! I believe every dog deserves patience, affection, attention, and plenty of opportunities to sniff, explore, and enjoy life. I understand the importance of maintaining familiar routines, whether that means regular walks, mealtimes, playtime, or simply providing companionship and reassurance while their people are away. I’m mature, responsible, attentive to detail, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’ll treat your pets with the same kindness, respect, and affection I give my own, and I’ll happily keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility to accommodate pet care throughout the week. As a dog mom myself, daily walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection are already part of my routine! I enjoy spending time outdoors and would love to make caring for your pets part of my day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’m attentive to individual personalities, routines, and special instructions, and I believe in creating a calm, loving environment. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your established routines, and make sure your furry family members receive plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident they’re in good hands!
About: I’ve been animal-obsessed for as long as I can remember 🐾💕 I’ve worked with animals most of my life and currently work at a veterinary clinic in Brevard, so I have tons of hands-on experience with all kinds of pet needs. I’ve been pet sitting for 7 years, starting out helping friends and family, and I’ve been so lucky to have it grow through word of mouth into something I truly love doing! Caring for animals truly makes me so happy, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—spoiled, loved, and well cared for! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to check on your babies! I can do early AM, lunch and PM visits! I also live within 5 minutes of Downtown Hendersonville so I’m easy and convenient! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take great care to create a calm, secure environment and follow your instructions closely. I also love keeping you connected while you’re away—expect regular photo updates and I’m always happy to do FaceTime check-ins so you can see your pet happy and safe in real time!
“Indigo was absolutely amazing! I had daily updates about how my sweet bunny was doing and was sent multiple pictures each day. Indigo gave me updates about how my bunny was getting more comfortable and when I came home he did zoomies around the room letting me know how happy he was this week. I felt so safe and comforted knowing he was so well taken care of. Will definitely be rebooking in the future for my bunny as well as my dog if I leave her next time!!”
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 8 years old in order to save up for a dog of my own. I love walking and playing with dogs. I'm not afraid to get dirty on the ground rolling around with your dog. I grew up being a dog person and caring for all the dogs in my neighborhood. I was a very loving and caring owner of my dog until he passed recently. It's not just a job to me, it's time well spent. I think it is important to spend quality time with our pets. I won't just feed your dog, let them out and then leave. I will spend time walking and making sure your dog feels loved while you are gone. I schedule my week around what animal care jobs I have. I am currently in college for nursing and all of my classes are fully online and self-paced so I have a lot of freedom to move my week around for the animals needs. I will pour as much time and care into your pets as needed depended on your schedule. I would never leave my dog in the care of a business looking after many dogs at once, I would want him to get the attention and care he deserves. With me, they will get one-one-one attention. Therefore, when I care for your animals, I think of how I'd want someone to care and love mine.
About: Hi! I’m McKenna and I have been pet sitting for family, friends and neighbors of mine for around 6 years. I specialize in bigger breeds as I would dog sit for a neighbor that had 2 large Bulldogs and I used to have a very large German Shepherd/Greyhound mix of my own. I also have great experience with reactive dogs, older dogs, medications and diabetic dogs. Animals are everything to me and I’d love to help you out with your fur babies which are considered family. I hope I am able to work with you soon and look forward to hearing from you. Thank you! I currently work at the Biltmore Estate but do not have a set schedule there. Please reach out to me so we can figure out if our scheduling aligns! I will try my very best to make it work :) I have a Beagle who is my entire life. He is full of energy and a professional singer! Our favorite thing to do is either cuddle or play fetch in the backyard.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Blue Ridge
We're new to Rover and didn't know what to expect. Christine is absolutely wonderful. Our pups didn't have any experience with new people caring for them but she tried her hardest to make them comfortable and it worked. She took care of them as if they were her own. I love the rover cards with pictures I recieved during each visit. I highly recommend Christine and look forward to using her services in the future. Thank you Christine!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Blue Ridge is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,851 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Blue Ridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Blue Ridge. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
