About: I have been a dog owner since I became 18 years old. My first dog Kaiya lived a long, healthy and fulfilled life. Kaiya lived all the way to 15 years old. I have experience with older pups as well as puppies. I currently have 2 smaller dogs, a rat terrier named Daisey and a mixed breed named Cooper, both rescues. They are energetic and require lots of love and attention. I have also house sat for numerous friends and family members over the years. I love plants and taking pride in taking care of others and pets ! I have a flexible schedule and able to take extended lunch breaks to take pets out for a walk/potty break. I am free most weekends and dedicate them to hiking, car rides, swimming or long walks and ball play. I prefer to go to the client's home. I have lots of availability. Currently working from home part time. I am active and willing to stop by almost anytime needed. I have reliable transportation. I do have a fenced yard. We play fetch frequently and walk around my neighborhood or local lake. I love the company off all pets.

“I had very little cell service when I was on my trip but it was really nice and reassuring that Makayla was still very attentive and communicative about our pets. I get really anxious being away from them especially with no cell service! But I very much appreciate the pics and communications from Makayla. I def recommended and even book her again for any future trips! Thanks for being affordable and just overall amazing. My family and I appreciate you!”

“Denene was spectacular! Our old lady, Sophie, loved her, too. She spent most of the visits on Denene's lap. Her communication and attention to the details were excellent. I will most certainly book Denene in the future.”

“Alex was amazing with our girl! We have a senior, diabetic dog who needs quite a few supplements and medication, as well as daily timed feedings and insulin injections. It’s is very hard to find someone who has experience with diabetic dogs, but Alex had experience and was more than willing to go the extra mile to keep her safe and healthy while we were gone. He had excellent communication and always asked questions about anything he was unsure of, which made me feel very confident in his ability to take care of our senior. He always let us know how she did at each meal, her blood glucose numbers, spent time walking and giving attention, and updated us with pictures from his visit. We are very happy to have found someone knowledgeable and caring to help give care when we are unable to, and feel that we may finally be able to travel more in the future now that we have a wonderful care-giver on our team!”

About: Rescuing dogs — especially puppies — is the most rewarding feeling in life. The most important thing with our furry friends is consistency. If you're stricter with your dog, you need a sitter who'll uphold those rules, not let them slide. I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family for years, and I've learned that it's not about what I want — it's about honoring what the owner has built with their pet. I work with the public in my day job, so patience is second nature to me. Pets are no different. They need someone who can read their energy, stay calm, and meet them where they're at. I also love running and playing with animals. Exercise is huge — but I get that a walk isn't always about distance. Sometimes they need to run. Sometimes they need to stop and smell everything. I match their pace, not mine. I don't know if anything really sets me apart from other sitters. I just genuinely want to be there for the furry family member. My availability in inconsistent due to Firefighting but I will always respond as soon as I'm able too. I understand due to my schedule I won't the best sitter for if you need someone daily, but if you need someone to drop-in, walk your dog, or just need a night out, feel free to leave a message. Currently working for a fire department, schedule can be inconsistent. Great for drop in play times and walks. Days off from fire department can be great for unexpected care. Currently unable to have pets in home due to renting rules. Will make sure to confirm and follow all rules with you before accepting the job.

About: I've taken care of many dogs, cats, fish, and even the occasional bird. I had my own pet sitting side business while I was in college in Tampa and have missed I ever since I moved!! I am currently looking to switch careers so my appointment book will be pretty open in the near future. I'd love for this to develop into my full time job. I am currently renting so I'm not offering boarding services. But I'm offering drop in visits not only to walk, feed, and clean up after pets but to spend some time with them so they are not lonely

About: Hi! I’m Izzy, and I’m the kind of person who will probably greet your dog before I greet you! 😂🐶 I’ve grown up surrounded by pets my entire life and have always had a huge soft spot for animals. I’ve cared for my own pets, watched pets for friends and family, and have professional experience working at a doggy daycare! Working at a doggy daycare gave me hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, energy levels, and play styles. I’ve learned how to read body language, recognize different behaviors, safely manage groups of dogs, and understand when a pup needs playtime, space, reassurance, or a good cuddle. 🐕🩷 I absolutely LOVE getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pup is a crazy ball of energy who wants to play all day, a nervous little baby who needs extra patience, or a professional couch potato who just wants cuddles I’m happy to meet them exactly where they’re at! When your pets are with me, they’ll get plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, enrichment, and of course… LOTS of belly rubs. 💕 My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and spoiled while you’re away. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your fur babies are in caring and experienced hands. I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they get all the love they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! 🐾✨ Pet sitting fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the week. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment where animals can feel secure and cared for. I also have experienced introducing pets safely, as I have four friendly dogs and three gentle cats at home who are used to meeting new animals. I always take time to ensure every pet feels comfortable and respected

About: I have owned pets for over 8 years; both dogs and cats. I have little experience with dogs under 1 year old, but I am responsible and diligent so I believe that I can handle dogs under 1 if I am given the chance. I have dog sit for a couple that had 4 dogs, and they were all over 50 pounds, so I am good at handling multiple dogs. I have never been hired to take care of a cat, but I have lived with cats for over 10 years, so I know how to take care of them. I love both dogs and cats, and I am excited to meet your four-legged friends! I currently do not have a job due to the fact that I am in school. I have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 to 2 pm, so any scheduling would have to work around that. I am available all day on any other day to dog walk, pet sit during the day, or overnight. I am very attentive when it comes to taking care of anyone's pets, and I treat them as if they were my own. I love to play with cats or dogs indoor or outdoor. I will keep a very close eye on them whether I am staying overnight, or just dog walking.

About: Animals have always naturally gravitated toward me, and caring for them genuinely makes me happy. I’m the kind of person who notices when a pet wants comfort, quiet, playtime, or just someone calm to sit with them. I especially love creating a peaceful, loving environment where pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very respectful of people’s homes, clean, dependable, and communicative. I know how vulnerable it can feel leaving your pets with someone else, so I treat every animal with real patience, affection, and attention — not just as a job, but because I truly love being around them. I’m also available for overnight stays, house sitting, feeding, walks, companionship, bringing in mail, watering plants, and helping keep things running smoothly while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule right now, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, affection, and companionship throughout the day. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m available for house sitting, drop-ins, walks, and overnight care most weekdays and weekends. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and being in your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely loving with animals. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and the little things that help pets feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll always treat your home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure you receive regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease.

About: My name is Jiji. My house in Morganton. I have had dogs and cats growing up. I am a registered nurse and I enjoy taking care of ppl and animals.

I plan my schedule ahead of time so please let me know in advance so I can accommodate the new fluff(s) :). It really depends on the animal. My dogs love playing with new friends in the yard. They’re welcome to share with whatever my dogs play with as well. They both love tug of war. Apollo loves fetch. They both like herding. My dogs love playing tag as well.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Chimney Rock

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,301 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Chimney Rock. 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 Chimney Rock. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
