“Olivia did a wonderful job watching Lily. She was very professional and easy to talk to and I felt good leaving Lily with her. I am so thankful to have found Rover so I can go places that don't allow dogs.”
“We use Jen so often as a dog walker, she's practically family to our little pup! Jen is an amazing, responsible, and communicative person, with whom we have always had great experiences. I can't recommend her more highly. Thanks again, Jen!”
About: I have years of experience walking dogs and petsitting both dogs and cats, whether taking them out for a walk or just keeping them company, I always prioritize your pets needs to ensure they are happy & healthy! I have experience caring for puppies and kittens all the way to senior dogs and cats, from one-time visits to a week and longer stays. As an animal lover, I find great joy in spending time with dogs and cats, ensuring they receive ample attention, and doing all I can to keep them from feeling lonely while their owners are away. I keep pets safe by avoiding any potentially dangerous situations, like walking along busy streets or getting too close to dogs who show signs of hostility (i.e growling/aggressive barking). I’d love to care for your adorable furry friends! I have a flexible schedule - I’m available for drop-in visits and walks, or to stay with your pets during the day and/or overnight! Looking for pet-sitting work in the Lake Norman area! I always prioritize your pets safety - being mindful of where we are walking, surroundings, and weather conditions, and following routines for feeding and bedtimes! I am happy to do whatever is best for your pet - whether they prefer energetic playtime or just relaxing! I keep owners up to date with messages and photos so they know their pet is in good hands!
“Amanda was always on time, even early. Gunner was comfortable with her from the very beginning and she is soft-spoken as well. Gunner never seemed to be anxious at all and they got along well. I felt comfortable leaving Gunner in Amanda’s care.”
“We asked Maura to stay with one of our dogs in our house for 5 days, and things went great! She sent updates when we checked in, and also on her own. We told her this was our first time using Rover, or any service like this, and she was really helpful with our few questions. Jameson is new to our household, so she provided great feedback when we got back home. She was great with Jameson, and we'd absolutely reach back out to her again! Also, she brought in out HelloFresh box and put it in the fridge - above and beyond!”
“Morgan was fantastic with my senior dog, Penny. She was very communicative, timely and sent daily pics and updates. She left my home, sparkling clean, and was very respectful of my space. Will definitely continue using her to care from my dog.”
“Brad did a great job staying with our dog in our home. She is very new to our family (adopted < 2 weeks ago), so we were a little nervous leaving her overnight. Brad came in with confidence, brought all of his own supplies for his stay, and was great about sending us pictures to help us know Josie was doing just fine while we were away. He is a real pro at this!”
“Brendan was great! He offered to come early to get acquainted with our puppies and communicated really well throughout his time with them! Would definitely book again!”
“Lillian did an awesome job watching Scarlett over the weekend. Scarlett can be pretty anxious and high energy, so I’m always a little cautious leaving her with someone new, but she took to Lillian right away, which says a lot. Lillian was very responsive the entire time and clearly put in the effort to work with Scarlett, not just watch her. That meant a lot to me knowing she was in good hands while I was away. Would definitely recommend her and will be reaching out again in the future.”
“Helen was awesome! She took great care of Lily and the house. She walked Lily often, sent pictures multiple times each day, proactively stripped the bed and put them in the washer. It was so nice to be able to focus on my time in mexico, and not worry about my girl Lily….thank you Helen”
About: I have cared for and loved pets of all kinds all of my life. Cats, dogs, goats, rabbits, lizards and a bird. I am responsible and respectful. With age comes dependability and maturity. Plus, animals love me. I'm retired so everyday is a Saturday. I travel in a converted Sprinter van, but only a few times a year. I'm available unless already booked. I'll be happy to take care of your dog in your home and walk them in/around your neighborhood. Do they like dog parks? That can be arranged, too.
“Nancy is amazing. My two pups adore Nancy. Nancy stayed with my pups for 5 days and everything and everyone was wonderful when we arrived back home. Nancy sent apictures every day along with a synopsis of their day.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Davidson
Ashley was amazing! I couldn’t have had a better sitter. She was really sweet and cared for my dog as if he was her own. She sent me pictures of him and the communication was outstanding! When I came home and walked in my house it felt cozy and was cleaner than it was when I left. I highly recommend her and I will definitely have her back again.
Jeannie was wonderful with my pup, Benny! She took great care of him and also my home while I was away. He got plenty of exercise and snuggles and I got lots of updates and pictures. It was so nice to know Benny was happy while I wasn’t at home! Jeannie is warm, caring, loves animals, and I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!
Allie was a great house sitter for my three cats, only one of whom is sociable with strangers. But her pictures prove that they became quite comfortable very quickly. She asked good questions during the meet and greet.Everybody was happy and the house was clean when I returned. Will definitely use again.
Bridget was the absolute best we could have asked for to help take care of our two dogs with our first experience using Rover. She was so prompt to respond and set up a meet and greet. We left for our trip feeling very comfortable and confident the dogs were in good hands. She sent us loads of photos and updates each day and our dogs sure had a blast! I would HIGHLY recommend her for anyone in the Huntersville-Cornelius-Mooresville area.
Nicole did an amazing job watching our pups while we were away for a week. She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos of our babies, which gave us so much peace of mind. She even managed to train our ravenous eater to sit and wait patiently for his food! We highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pups with extra special care. We will absolutely use her again whenever we can’t take our fur babies with us.
Sam Assemgul was excellent! She performed all expected tasks as requested in a professional manner. Sam treated my dog with good care and love. She also sent me daily text updates and photos/movies which made the 13 day separation doable without worry. Thus, without reservation, I highly recommend Sam as an inhouse, long term dog sitter.
A care provider cancelled two days before our trip and Staci agreed to provide last minute care for our 14 year old pup for a few days. Staci dropped in several times a day, sent updates on activity and feeding which included great photos, and we even got compliments from the neighbors as to how present she was while we were away on our trip. We could tell our pup was in great hands from day one which was very much appreciated. Staci was just incredible, and we are thankful.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Davidson walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Davidson maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Davidson choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
