About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was eight years old. Growing up, we always had animals as part of the family. I love cats and dogs and all animals: I have two cats of my own that are my babies :) I’ve been professionally pet sitting and dog walking all throughout my adult life. I started on Rover in Fall of 2024 and have loved every second of it— the connections and time spent with your fur babies :) I’m here to support you and your pet care needs! I am wide open for availability this summer, and can come morning, afternoon, evening, or overnight. I teach at UTC during the fall and spring semester. I always ask questions and provide updates as often as possible. I also love sending pictures to my clients so they can see their pets having fun and being cared for.

About: I've been around dogs all my life. I take care of my friends' dogs regularly and have two Great Pyrenees dogs myself. I am comfortable with any breed. I am a local real estate agent so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can house sit and/or do drop ins on a regular basis. I make sure keep your pets on the same routine as they are use to make there times away from you as stress free as possible. I treat every one of my clients pets as if they were my own.

“Terri is reliable, follows instructions and caring. I felt confident leaving my pup in her care. Highly recommend her services!!!”


About: I have an 11 year old rescue, so I’ve been through every stage of dog life. She’s technically an only child, but I sit for my friends’ dogs regularly, so she’s always excited for a new face. If your dog prefers human friends instead, I’m happy to take them for a hike, walk, run, whatever! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time for walks, snuggles, or trips to the park. With one dog already, it’s easy to fit another into my routine. I have an 11 year old mix that is happy to keep any visitors company. I have a small yard, so I prefer to take any dogs who stay with me on a walk around the neighborhood. I also live near enough to trails and parks that I can take them for more adventures too!

“Justin might as well be a dog whisperer. Our pups love him and he incorporates his dog training knowledge while providing excellent care, including phenomenal photos. If he can wrangle our 160 lbs of 2 rowdy schnauzers (giant/standard), he can handle anything. 6 out of 5 stars.”


About: Hi, I’m Cat! Growing up in a family that always had pets, I developed a deep love and respect for animals from an early age. For nearly 14 wonderful years, I had the joy of caring for my own dog, who was a true member of my family. She has recently passed, and I've decided to offer my pet care services instead of getting another dog, allowing me to channel my love for animals into helping yours feel cared for and cherished. :) I’ll treat your fur babies as if they were my own, providing them with love, attention, and patience. I have experience with anxious pups, leash training, administering medication, and creating a calm, nurturing environment for all kinds of pets. As someone who works from home and sets my own schedule, I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your needs. Whether it’s regular walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’m here to help your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. Let’s chat about how I can help you and your furry family members! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I work from home and set my own schedule. This flexibility allows me to prioritize the needs of the pets I care for, whether it's scheduling walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. I enjoy incorporating outdoor time with dogs into my day, as it’s a great way to stay active and bring joy to both the pets and myself. Caring for animals has always been a rewarding part of my life, and I’m happy to make it a regular part of my routine. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where they feel comfortable and loved. I make sure they have plenty of space to relax and play along with access to fresh water, food, and any other comforts they’re accustomed to. I also provide lots of attention, affection, and enrichment to help them feel at ease. I have a balcony at my apartment and a dog park at my complex and am happy to take your dog down for a romp or walk if staying for doggy daycare. I also only care for one pet at a time in my home so you'll be ensured they will get all the attention they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to maintain their routines as closely as possible to minimize stress. I ensure their needs are met, whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or simply spending quality time with them. I treat their home with respect and provide regular updates to keep pet parents reassured. No matter where I care for them, my goal is to ensure that every pet feels safe, happy, and cared for.

About: Hi there! I can't wait to meet your pets. I am an experienced dog owner and frequent pet sitter. With two of my own, my world revolves around dogs! I am a teacher in Hamilton County and work regularly from 8:30-3:30 during the week. During the weekends, I spend my time going on adventures or hanging in the yard with my own dogs. I will always have mornings, evenings, and holidays off to devote even more time to your pups! When pets stay in my home, I do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable. Well mannered pets will have full access to the house unless otherwise instructed by pet parents. I have crates available for pets that require. Dogs will be let out at least 5 times per day (before and after breakfast, in the afternoon, before and after dinner, and before bed). Dogs will have several opportunities to play in the yard or in the house. Feeding times for my own pets are 7:00 am and 5:00 pm. I am more than happy to adjust for your pets needs! My goal is to make you dog feel at home and at ease:) *For dog boarding needs: I can not accept any dogs that display aggressive behavior towards my dogs. Dogs must be well socialized to dogs outside of their own home. *For dog walking needs: All dogs must be well behaved on leash and have a secure collar/ harness. I am not available to walk dogs using prong, or shock collars.

About: I started dog-sitting my freshman year of college, and I have continued to do so through the years. Every animal is different, and I enjoy getting to know their personalities! I worked at a doggy daycare for a while and gained a lot of animal experience there. I have looked after newborn puppies to seniors and am comfortable with medication management. If you are training your dog, I am more than happy to help by utilizing whatever commands you're working on. I take their schedules seriously and do my best to keep everything the same in your absence. I like to send photo updates, capture funny/sweet moments, and ask questions about behavior if it seems out of the norm. As of now, I am unemployed after a cross-country move back here (aka home) and am currently looking to make pet care a full-time job, so your pet will have my full attention! I care for pets based on how you care for your pets! I always let them come to me first when we meet. I make sure everything is secure before leaving and make sure to follow any and all specific instructions.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats running around my feet. I currently live around four cats and have been helping to care for neighbor's and friends' pets since I was 8 years old. I admire and respect animals and my goal is to make pets and their parents as comfortable as possible while apart. I have taken care of senior pets before and am comfortable giving medications with special instructions, especially with my experience in pursuing my B.S. in chemistry. I have been job searching for part time jobs in the area and am an active online tutor for my NC university. I will be creating my availability and booking reservations around each job I do. Since I do not have a fixed schedule yet, I am pretty flexible for new reservations. My priorities are always the safety and comfort of both the pets and their owners. I will follow the steps the owners regularly take and make sure to be gentle and patient with all parties, as being apart from each other can be stressful for many. I will always stay attentive to details, especially with monitoring any change in behavior of animals, checking all environments for safety, and maintaining care for your property.

Susan F.
“I am pleased to share my experience with Susan as a pet caregiver for our four dogs. Susan has consistently demonstrated a high level of responsibility and genuine love for animals. She has a remarkable ability to connect with each of our dogs, understanding their individual personalities and needs. During the time she cared for them, she not only ensured they were well-fed and exercised but also provided ample affection and attention, which our dogs clearly appreciated. Susan's reliability and attention to detail gave us peace of mind while we were away, knowing our furry family members were in great hands. Her commitment to their well-being and happiness is evident, and I wholeheartedly recommend Susan as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Our dogs can't wait to see her again!”


Robert K.
“Bobi is an extraordinarily reliable and responsible young man. When he makes a commitment, he sees it through no matter what because his word because his word equates to his honor. He is a lover of all animals and a caring individual who always helps to take care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats (a shared responsibility in our family). He has dog-sat for one of his friends routinely when she goes out of town and she will not trust anyone else with Milo's care. He would be a stellar caregiver to the animals and an unrivaled, committed resource for their humans.”

I now have three dogs all of which are very stand offish and she was so patient in getting to know them and really listened to me when I told her certain triggers they have and things I wanted her to do with them. My oldest is a Great Dane and as soon as I tell her bailey is coming she literally dances in excitement. My two other dogs are brothers and have certain food aggression issues. As soon as I laid this out to Bailey about feeding times and rituals she was on it. I felt so comfortable and confident in her watching my dogs! I’m telling you yalls precious pets won’t be in better hands than hers!”
