“This was our first time using Rover. It has exceeded our expectations! We would highly recommend to anyone! Alexis was punctual and perfect, with outstanding communication throughout!”

About: Able to bond with animals easily. Have had several dogs over the span of their life ( some for 17 years ) Know what to look for in regards to medical, exercise, and lap time. Would treat them like my own, and mine are my family. I am retired, have dependable transportation, and always ten minutes early. I am retired and have very few obligations. When I commit to a schedule for your pet, that becomes my priority. Accepting all schedule suggestions. Dax..a mixed breed rescue is going on 10 this year. He has a porch and an outside dog run along the side of the house. He tends to venture off to the neighbors dogs when he finds the opportunity. So he is leash walked when we go out. He has a free run of the house, as well as my brothers dog when she visits ( bernadoodle )
About: Dogs instantly trust me because I give them love, patience, and fun! I treat each one like family and make sure they get plenty of playtime, cuddles, and care. I can take care of pets 6:00 am at 12:00 am and on weekends. Although, I can change my work schedule whenever you need :) I prefer to take care of the pets at home, I can bathe them, comb them, feed them and take them for walks, all with more comfort in my home. You will have photos and videos all the time if you prefer.
About: I am a life-long animal lover and advocate. I have nearly 2 decades of pet care experience ranging across various animal species, age, temperaments, and conditions. My schedule is quite flexible and I am happy to accommodate any special needs your furmily needs! I work from home with a very flexible schedule so I am freely available for visits. I’m also generally available on weekend visits as well. From a wellness and care perspective, I aspire to treat every animal as if it were my own. Just to speak a bit about them…I have 3 fur babies at home, 1 Pyrenees mix, 1 Cattle dog mix, and 1 feline fuzzball. Each of the dogs get ample exercise, enrichment, and treats every day. I pride myself on being a cat-dad just as much as a dog-dad so the fuzzball gets his own enrichment and support each day as well :-)
“Mallory walked our dogs everyday while we were away. The dogs warmed right up and were excited to get their walk. Mallory was dependable and always walked them for the agreed upon duration, or longer. We will definitely ask Mallory to walk our dogs the next time we’re away.”

About: I’ve been with dogs my whole life. I started taking care of others dogs in the neighborhood when I was 11 and fell in love with it ever since. I’m reliable, consistent and very flexible. I have trained my dog and three other dogs basic training to advanced training. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available on weekdays if requested. I can take your pup on a walk or even spend the night with your pup so they sleep good . Saturday and Sunday only, I would be able to stay at your place to give your paw friend some company! I will make sure they are well behaved. The proper food will be served to your puppy and proper exercise for each dog! I will follow your recommendations and special requests.
“Cate was a lifesaver! Our care plans fell through a few hours before we were supposed to leave and she swooped in to save the day! She came over to meet the us as we were loading up to leave which meant a lot to us. She did amazing with our job with our dogs and her communication was fantastic as well. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


“Derek is reliable, knowledgeable and accessible. So grateful to have his assistance in caring for our 4 legged family member on our busy days. He has provided our family with reassurance and kept our girl happy. So thankful for his help!”
“Amazing! I reached out and they had time to take a booking right away! Great job with our two 70lb dogs on an hour long walk. So thoughtful with leaving us homemade dog treats too. Thank you Michelle and Dale!”

“Jennifer has been great with my more than picky and borderline difficult pup Yama. She has been reliable and punctual and even reminds me to schedule our weekly walks so she and Yama can get comfortable together. Thanks so much for being so good with Yama and being willing to work with us!”

About: I have been a professional animal sitter for the past 15 years in Brevard NC and we've pretty much seen it all. I have a passion for animals and I have wonderful references. Some of my clients have been with me for all 15 of those years. I have sat for homes with cats, birds, dogs, rodents, reptiles, horses, goats, and chickens. I have one large sweet golden retriever who can stay with my brother on his farm if it is an issue for your pet(s). My husband and I work as a team to ensure all goes smoothly. Come meet us or give us a call to set up an interview and see why people come back! Hope to hear from you, Betsy Watson

About: Greetings! When I was two I picked out my first puppy and have cared for, trained, and loved dogs ever since. My son and I have two dogs ourselves and love to stay active-walks in the woods, runs in the neighborhood, or hikes up the mountain. I would love to offer that life to dogs whose owners may not have time to offer it to them themselves. I am a very responsible, gentle, yet stern handler who loves to see dogs thrive. Whether this is by implementing leash training, food rewards or consistant scratches to the ears, I am always engaged with your dog to know what he/she needs to have a safe and fun time. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! I am currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and my son will love the new animals he will get to meet. I am highly attentive and responsible both with your home and with your beloved animals. I stick to the schedule and try to keep the animals as comfortable as possible while you’re away.
About: I have been petsitting for around 10 years, and did it more within these last six years. I love helping all animals and enjoy every second of it! I work part time, from 8:30-1:00 Monday through Friday, so I have plenty of time outside of work to care for your pets! My weekends are normally relaxed so I can be available when you need! I enjoy playing with different animals and learning how to best work with each one I meet. I like to take dogs on walks and play with them outside.
About: I have loved and cared for dogs all my life. I started working with dogs when I was 17. I was a kennel tech from 17 until 20. I worked and cared for doggy day care clients, boarders, and even helped with vet tech work. I also recently did dog training where I hosted board and trains in my own home! I currently have an open schedule for drop-ins and walks where I have time to look after your pet, will be needing to close my avaliablity for boarding and day care due to having a service dog in training. I will make exceptions for crate trained dogs. For possible boarders and day-care: I have a fenced-in area in my yard to let your pup run wild and get exercise! I also prefer crates for sleeping overnight, as long as that's okay! Cuddle sessions will happen every night! Walks/drop-ins: I will make sure your dog's get properly exercised on their walks or hikes. And make sure when I check in that pets are well cared for and the house is left cleaner than I left it
“Kristen was a very attentive to our dogs needs. She left detailed notes every day and many pictures that brightened our day! If you’re looking for a dog walker, Kristen is amazing!!”
