“Harley watched our babies on our wedding weekend. We could not be more pleased with her care! She not only came to feed, water, scoop their boxes but went above and beyond by staying to make sure they ate and gave them snuggles. She was very professional and gave us detailed updates each time she checked on them. We highly recommend Harley!”
About: Hi, I’m Brad — a lifelong animal lover with decades of dog ownership and experience caring for dogs, but I love pets of all kinds (well, except spiders and snakes...). As a dependable professional in my 50s, I bring calm, trustworthy, and attentive care (and lots of snuggles, if they are up for it) to every animal I work with. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, and I’m committed to clear communication, reliability, and respecting your home and routines. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, or steady companionship, I’m here to help. I’d love to care for your four-legged family member! I am a realtor with a very flexible schedule, and I would like to invest some of my non-realtor time to caring for your four-legged friends! All I require is dependable wifi, and I can conduct almost all of my "office" work remotely. I will show up for drop-ins and house sitting fully prepared to care for your pets, and provide the care they need. Feeding, walking, playing, and "scooping", as needed, are all part of my repertoire.
About: I genuinely enjoy looking after new doggos and experiencing different personalities and breeds. I've grown up with German Shepherds and Yorkies my entire life, so I'm ready for absolutely any size/breed dog you present to me. I have my own 7 year old Border Collie, Brady, who I've raised since 13 weeks old. I'm comfortable with puppy potty/play routines as well as senior doggies who need a little more special attention and individual care. I live in a cozy home with a fenced in yard, and plenty of space for pups to run around. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I’ve had plenty of close calls with Brady that have helped educate me in basic first aid for dogs, and I can promise you I will do my best to create a safe, supervised environment for your pup so you can feel confident in their healthy, happy return. I work from home full-time, and I will be home pretty much all the time to keep your pup company and make sure everyone’s well taken care of and entertained. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your furry friend comfortable. I also have an XL sized crate if your dog wants some alone time or a nested, quiet place to nap.
About: I have always loved interacting with animals, they are a joy to be around. Pet sitting has always been a fun opportunity for me to earn income since middle school, and now that I’m on my law school journey, I hope to continue that trend. I am comfortable assisting dogs and cats of any age. I’m dedicated to your pets comfort & happiness, and will treat your pet how I would hope you would treat mine, like family! I am currently attending law school. During the week, I will not be confined to a classroom all day, and will be sure to communicate my availability when you reach out with your booking request. We have a spacious, fully fenced in backyard. Your pet will also have free range of our finished basement. Pictures of the space available upon request! While your pet will not be confined to a crate in our home, we do prefer that they are house and/ or crate trained.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 11 years old. I have bathed, fed, walked, and played with dogs and cats alike. I love it a lot and animals just bring me joy. I currently work part time at another job so I’ll have time to help take care of your pets throughout the week and keep them company. I am able to move around a bunch to play with your pet! I can also cuddle and relax with them if that’s more their speed. I understand every pet is different and I can work with them however they need! I’ll also make sure to stay communicative, letting you know what’s going on and sending pictures of your fur baby’s.
About: Grew up in the country taking in any critter that needed my help and unconditional love. Nothing I wouldn’t do for them. Fully supplied and ready :)) I’m home always , I prefer animals over people. I’m super soft hearted and devoted to any that need me. They’ll always have a trusted devoted friend in me. I live out in the country with plenty of land to roam, two loving sweet dogs to keep yours company and to play with. I’m home always and they have my undivided attention.
About: Hello, and thank you for checking me out Rover! Always know that your pets are in the best hands when booking with me. If 'dog mom' was a career, I'd sign right up! My name is Shannon and I am a college graduate who has always had a fur baby. I have a registered service dog. His name is Copper and he can be a happy and playful companion to your dog(s), day or night. He’s had lots of experience as a companion and loves it when he gets friends over! I also have a dog door and a fenced back yard, so exercise is never lacking here. We take walks, down the street to the elementary school or to the ice cream parlor. Call me with your questions, anytime. Thank you for viewing my profile! Shannon I currently work from home and am here almost always. I have a fenced in back yard with a doggie door that lets your pet come and go as they please! Lots of love provided while you are away! I treat each pet as my own. I have countless 5-star reviews and provide pictures and text updates throughout the whole stay so you know your pet is always safe and sound.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Catawba
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 230 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Catawba. 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 Catawba. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
