“Alyssa did an excellent job looking after my cat! Her communication was great and she sent many pictures and updates. I definitely recommend Alyssa to others looking for sitters”
“Ellen was great!! Great communication and always on time for our pets! We felt at peace being away this past weekend with her stopping by:) Our furbabies loved her! We will definitely rebook again!”
“Peyton did a great job dropping off to feed and entertain my 2 cats while I was gone. My place was kept clean and he spent the full 30 minutes with them at each visit.”
“Rachel is the best! This was Gus’ first time staying overnight alone. Not only did Rachel take great care of him, but put my mind at ease too. She shared great pics throughout the trip. Looking forward to booking with her again.”
“Mackenzie was great! Super communicative and took great care of my boy. Would definitely recommend her and will reach out again in the future for dog sitting needs!”
“Stephen was great at taking care of our cat. Very communicative, consistent, and reliable. Would definitely ask for his help again! We had peace of mind while we were away for several days. Stephen gave detailed updates and pictures after each visit.”
“Daniella was an amazing sitter. Our cat is very shy and typically hides from new faces, so we were very shocked to see her cuddling with Daniella on day 2. Daniella was also very accommodating to any of the requests we made. Definitely recommend her services for anyone with pets in the area.”
“She's amazing! My crazy goober kitten AND my normally shy nervous cat both just loved her - a miracle. She's responsive, stayed the whole visit length with the girls, and is generally just a warm & friendly person. Highly recommend!”
“Joseph was a wonderful Rover! He always sent numerous pictures of my pup Willa with a detailed update of his visit with her! I was out of town and never had to worry that she wasn’t getting taken care of or getting all of the pets and scratches. Thank you for taking such good care of Willa!”
“Due to my job she wasn’t able to meet my dogs prior and they were comfortable enough with her to go outside with her. (My older dog can be wary of new people sometimes)”
“Megan was wonderful with our two boys. Prompt and on scheduled with drop in visits, which was comforting because my dog takes pills around the clock. Would highly recommend”
About: As a fellow pet owner of both a cat and a dog, you can trust that your animal will be in good hands! I’ve been a dog mom for 10 years and grew up with family dogs when I was younger and my fiancé has a cat that I now consider my own. I work from home which allows me to have a flexible schedule when it comes to helping out with any and all of your pet needs and care. I have several friends pets that I’ve watched when they leave to go out of town and their furry friends are treated like one of my own! You can believe the same is true when I watch your fur babies 🩷 I work from home which allows me to be available for all of your pet needs throughout the day. I have a routine with my own animals of morning/evening potty and feed time as well as walks and play time throughout the day. I can be flexible with whatever your pets needs are! I have two pets of my own so I can ensure that I will watch and take care of your pets as if they are my own! While I’m with your pets, my attention will be focused on them and making sure all of theirs needs are met
“Erica did such an amazing job watching my kitty while I was gone for a long vacation! She provided in depth recaps of their visits and even took the trash out on the last day! It was my first time leaving my baby for that long, and using Rover, and she made the process absolutely perfect! I am so grateful!! 10/10”
“Tracy was very flexible with a last minute change in our Memorial Day plans! She was very attentive to our dog and cat, and took very good care of them! Would re-book again!”
“Jenn was excellent with our fur baby and we were instantly relaxed about her when we met her! Solomon had a great time and we would hire her again any day!”
“Kathryn is always great when checking in on my kitties. She noticed there weren’t any toys around and let me know. I amazoned them right away so they had something while we were gone.”

Jack was absolutely amazing! I had to go to New York and needed someone to walk and care for my dog, and he exceeded all my expectations. He was very responsive, professional, and genuinely cared for my dog. He sent me lots of pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He even accommodated my last-minute request without hesitation, and I couldn’t be more grateful. It’s clear that he loves animals and treats them like they’re his own. I highly recommend Jack to anyone looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and caring. I’ll definitely be using his services again!
Rosie took such wonderful care of our dogs over the holidays, which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away without worrying about them. She kept us updated with lots of photos and thoughtful messages, so we always knew they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for! Thank you Rosie!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Charlotte on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,644 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Charlotte. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Charlotte stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Charlotte. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
