About: Dog's are my loves. Theyre treated like princes (and princesses) when in my care. I've had dogs ever since I was born and I wouldn't have it any other way. I previously owned a black lab, 7 years old, named Bear. We Iost him on 12/29/17 in a hit and run while I was out of town. He was a medium sized lab and the sweetest in the world. As I’m obviously heartbroken by the loss of a piece of my family missing, I find refugee in loving animals, as I know Bear would love more friends to play with if he were still home. I am an advocate of dogs being family, so they can be up on the couch, on the bed. I don't like to feed the dogs people food because it creates beggars, but I do like to spoil them. My fur baby has enough toys to keep a village occupied. I’m a dog loving woman, and it will never be questioned. I currently stay at home, so I have unlimited availability to be able to give your furry friend the attention that they need, and accommodate your needs as well. I have a fenced in yard, and one pup to keep your's company. I'm also able to keep the dogs separated and crate yours if that's what makes them most comfortable.

About: Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile. I hope you find what you are looking for here, and please feel free to reach out if you have further inquiries. I typically to respond to customers (both present and potential!) within 30 minutes between the hours of 7 A.M. to 9:00 P.M. My name is Samm, I am 29 years old & live in downtown Kannapolis, and I'm the licensed & insured sitter you've been searching for! While there are many great sitters on Rover, what sets me aside from others is I am licensed and insured (privately- beyond the "Rover Guarantee"). Your safest and most secure bet for your pet will always be with me- check out my reviews! I have been professionally using Rover since 2015. I built my client base in Charlotte and loved every single one of my clients- both pups and parents. I took a hiatus due to COVID and moved from south Charlotte to Kannapolis, and am now opening my services back up to welcome in new clients in the area. While many Rover sitters specialize in dogs, I have experience with all walks of life when it comes to pets- dogs, cats, fish (saltwater and freshwater tanks), birds (including fowl such as chickens, geese, ducks, etc.), reptiles and amphibians (yes even snakes!) so rest assured that whatever pets you have, they will be in loving and experienced hands when in my care. While I am not a paid dog trainer, I do love to work with my clients puppies (young and old) on reinforcing their training as per their parents desires. This ranges from crate training to leash pulling to general obedience, and everything in between. I understand that as a pet parent, you know best for your pup and their home environment. Please do not be afraid to add in special "requests" as such when booking with me. I have a vast amount of experience with senior dogs and dogs who live with disabilities. I am able to administer medications in a timely manner (pills, liquids, and injections) when required, and I am trained in first aid in the event of an emergency. I am currently studying engineering and have a flexible schedule outside of my studies. I would love to fill my spare time doting on your pets! 9 times out of 10, I am able to arrange to accommodate your schedule when given a sufficient notice. I am currently no longer offering overnights or daycare to new clients at my home, as we now have chickens and ducks as pets in our backyard. While our birds are acclimated and unphased by our dogs, there is always a possibility that our birds can trigger a prey drive in unacquainted dogs. While I can survive the heartache of losing a chicken (EVERYTHING hunts chickens around here!), chicken bones can pose a very serious and potentially deadly threat to dogs when ingested. So, for everyone's safety, I am currently only offering services outside of my home. As such, I am available for drop-in visits in your home, walks, as well as house sitting. Please read on for what you can expect out of each type of visit in your home, and as always, reach out at any time for further information if needed. Walks: I offer 30 minute or 1 hour walks. This service is perfect for those who work or are out of the house, but need someone to help with making sure their pet gets exercise and a potty break. 30 minute walks are typically 0.5 miles to 1 mile in distance, sometimes more or less depending upon your dogs size and energy levels. A 1 hour walk is usually ~2 miles. During these visits, my main priority is getting your dog outside and nicely tired out so you can enjoy your day uninterrupted. I will make sure your dog gets a potty break while we are out, so all you have to worry about afterwards is where your dog wants to take their nap :) Drop-In Visits: I currently offer 30 minute and 1 hour drop-in visits. This is typically what an owner will book me for if they are out of town and need a sitter to drop in and make sure the household and pets are doing well. During this time, my first priority is medication administration, if applicable. Second to that in priority is ensuring your pup gets to relieve themselves. Please specify if you prefer your dog use your yard, or if you would like for us to take a stroll around the neighborhood. I take 15-20 minutes of walk or backyard play for 30 minute visits, and about 30-40 minutes for hour visits. The remainder of my visit will be to replenish food and water, give treats, pets, and attention, and clean up any messes that may have occurred. Please note that this is MY general outline- if you have a different routine you'd like me to follow that works better for you and your pet, simply notify me of such and I will be more than happy to follow your procedures. House Sitting: I will be staying overnight in your home and provide daily care and company for your pets and home. I will provide my own food, toiletries, personal items, etc., so you will only have to worry about and focus on gathering what your pet needs while you are away. Please note that I will not be at your home 24 hours a day. I will likely have to leave for class or to tend to my pets at home. If you need constant care at home for your pet, I am able to arrange for that to happen at an additional cost- please just let me know in your original booking inquiry. With a house sitting booking, you can expect me to perform all the everyday activities your pet requires. This includes timely administration of medications, sticking to your desired feeding routine, and as many walks and playtimes as you desire. Please let me know the desired duration of walks/play as I do not want to overexert your pet, or alternatively, not give them enough exercise. Light housekeeping will be performed- plants will be watered, mail will be taken in daily, sweeping/vacuuming fur and dirt, and general cleaning up after your pet in the event of messes. I make sure that your home is in the same or better condition as when you left it. I do not smoke or drink and will not be bringing unauthorized persons onto your property. Typically I send one update (accompanied by pet photos) per day around the afternoon. If you would like more- no problem! Just inform me of such and I am happy to keep you as much in-the-loop as you desire.

“Hanna really did a great job walking our dog! She and our hound hit it off right away. Hanna walked our dog in 30 minute increments during weekdays. She always walked at least 30 minutes, sent pictures, and took care of keeping the water full. We really appreciated having her help! Thanks, Hanna!”

“Claire has been great to have walk our dog! She does a great job communicating and is punctual when showing up for his walks! We will continue to book with her and would recommend to anyone needing a walker!”

About: Growing up on a farm with an assortment of animals I learned how to multitask. I love hanging out with chill animals on the couch and playing around with the most rambunctious of ones! I am currently part-time so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I am a college student so starting mid august I will have classes Tuesday and Thursday. On those days I will only be able to be with your pets early in the morning and early evening as during the day are all of my courses. When walking your pet, my favorite place to go is our local greenway. I find the park to be wide and long, perfect for going potty and getting those zoomies out!

“Amber walked both of our large dogs & they loved it! I'm looking forward to using her for more dog walks & even for house sitting. I have no doubt she can handle it.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I've also trained my own dogs. I'm comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and basic training. I'm patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved! I work part-time during the week, leaving my mornings and early afternoons open. I'm also fully available on weekends, giving me plenty of flexibility to accommodate your pet's needs and routine. I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment for pets in my home or my client's home. I have one dog who is fully crate-trained and very friendly with both people and other animals. I'm happy to follow each pet's established routine, respect their comfort levels, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care.

About: since the age of fourteen i’ve walked all sorts of dogs around my neighborhood, but before i could talk, i was surrounded by large furry friends! at this moment my family and i take care of our 4 crazy fur babies! lucy, sparky, penny, and bear! I grew up walking, loving, and cleaning up after our dogs! Being a dog owner at such a young age taught me the severity of pet responsibility and time management! because i am a college student at high point university i have classes in the morning and late afternoon, but i have a reliable car and have at least two hours between either class. so i am very flexible!! in our gated community for retired military, our pups get to play in a fenced in back yard but we love to slip on their harness and take them on 2 separate 45 min walks morning and night! you can say the are definitely pooped by the end of the night

I'll prioritize the safety and well-being of your furry friends in the following ways: 1. Customized Care: Each dog is unique, and I'll tailor my care to their specific needs. Whether it's a leisurely stroll, an energetic playtime, or a more relaxed outing, I'll adapt to what suits your dog best. 2. Leash Control: I'm vigilant about maintaining control over the leash during walks to ensure your dog's safety. This includes using appropriate harnesses or collars and avoiding potential hazards. 3. Environment Awareness: I'll be attentive to the surroundings, avoiding busy roads, crowded areas, or other potential dangers during our walks. Safety is my top priority. 4.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a few years now. I understand your dogs are your babies so taking care of them and modifying to their needs is one of my biggest priorities! I have a lot of free time to take care of your fur babies! The summer weather is perfect for walks! My schedule is very flexible, I would love to plan some meet & greets in order to meet you and your animals! In my home, your dogs would be like a part of my everyday routine. I would prefer to care for them in their own environment of course!

About: Hi! I have grown up with pets my whole life. I have cared for labs and dachshunds to birds and hamster so I am well versed in interaction and first aid. I can also care for reptiles, amphibians and insects/bugs as I have proper training in labs and rehab centers. I am currently going to school for zoology and black world studies and have worked two years as a zoology and lab tech assistant. So you can be assured you animal is in good care. I am versed in behavioral activites, nutrition, training, and age grouped interactions between animals and humans as well as many of the signs for common sicknesses and fatigues within breeds. I love being outdoors and playing games in order to give the animals the ability to express their energy in an appropriate manner. You animal will be in great hands. I also make usually make pet friendly treats if I have advanced notice! I am currently self employed so my schedule works around me. Animal care always comes first, after all a steady schedule makes for a happy pet I have two small dogs one is a baby one is an old man but they get along great and play like puppies. They are friendly and would love to keep your fur baby company. However, if your dog is not up for company for any reason there is a nice sized crate in which the animals that reside here or your own (which ever you are more comfortable with) can reside it. I love to play, study mannerisms and behaviors, I like toys that make their brains work so they feel fulfilled and tired after a good session of play. Walks, breaks and water are a good way to bond and pass the time. Cuddle bugs are always welcome as well. Nail trimming and grooming available if needed.
