About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my years of experience and deep understanding of pets, having cared for several of my own over the years. I bring a personalized approach to each pet's unique needs, from specialized puppy training to ensure young dogs receive proper guidance, to expert senior pet care, including medication administration and mobility assistance. My commitment extends beyond basic care—I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you're away. I live in a very active, clean, and walkable area of Charlotte and would love to take your dog with me to get some exercise! When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I prioritize safety, trust, and a familiar environment. I maintain the pet's regular routine, from feeding schedules to daily walks, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable in their own space. I pay close attention to their safety, keeping hazardous items out of reach, and ensuring secure doors and gates. Trust is at the heart of my service—I treat your home and pets with the utmost respect, providing reliable and consistent care. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pets, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Great communicator and even came by twice in one day because I was gone for so long. Thank you!”


“Anvesha was great! Right on time, communicative and so sweet with my dog. She was so friendly and he took to her immediately! She also sent the cutest pic!”


“The dogs loved their walk with Kaitlyn. They were tuckered out when they got back and slept soundly while I worked from home. Perfect situation! Can’t wait for their next walk today!”


“Riley was so, so awesome! It was my first time hiring someone to walk my big pup (1.5 yo, 80lb labradoodle) and i'm so, so glad it was Riley! My pup is hyper and still learning to loose-leash walk so I was very worried about handling him and his size but she was super communicative and fantastic every step of the way. I will definitely seek Riley's services in the future and highly recommend her for your baby too!”


“Joe did so well with my pup Earl!! He was punctual and communicated well. Earl took to him very quickly and I can tell he has been well cared for. I will definitely use him again in the future!”


About: I am an online masters student with a flexible schedule and a great ability to befriend pets! I have looked after dogs and cats for my friends and family since middle school. I will bring a happy energy to your pet! My legal name is Mary but you can call me Mo :) I will prioritize the schedule and needs of your pet to ensure that they have consistency and the highest quality care during our time together. I have a gentle energy that I bring to interaction with my pets and will bring to yours. I love to play and interact on the terms of the pet.

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember and finally became a pet paw-rent four years ago to my two cats. While I love my feline friends, I also have a special place in my heart for our canine companions, as I often care for my sister’s two pups: a Jack Russell/rat terrier mix and a pug. I have experience caring for kitten/puppy age all the way to seniors. I understand the importance of enrichment for both dogs and cats and would love to break out your animal’s favorite toys during our visit. I also love walking with dogs to explore their world, whether that’s on city streets or nature trails. I have experience with basic puppy training (including crate and leash training). I’m also experienced with basic health concerns and administering medicine as I have cared for my own cat after a dental extraction and also adjusted my other cat’s diet to lose weight (both are happy and healthy now!). If there is a specific concern you’d like me to tend to with your animal, I can certainly help. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and becoming a paws-itive part of both your worlds! I’m currently available for drop ins and walks from the morning into the evening so I can devote plenty of time to your pets. This flexibility also allows me to better cater to your needs, should you need any adjustments. I care for your pets just as I do my own: their comfort, safety, and health are my top priorities. I ensure they are well fed, hydrated, enriched, and comfortable before concluding the visit. I make sure to send plenty of pictures to you so you have ease of mind knowing your animals are receiving the best possible care and experience.

“Beau was super helpful and flexible when we needed last-minute help with our foster dog!”


“Haley was able to accommodate me last minute and walk my two pups! One is a puppy and one is a senior and they seemed very happy to see her from the photos she sent. Thank you for getting them outside for a break!! Would definitely book with her again :)”


“Breckyn was a lifesaver when I ended up in a pinch over a weekend. We were able to schedule a meet & greet super quickly, and she left thorough notes about each walk. She even pointed out an overgrown claw + sent pictures of my cats too. Really put me at ease! Thanks so much!”


“Lucia was great! Took Bruce for a good walk, even in the heat, and was super easy to work and communicate with.”


“Lauren is truly great! Our meet and greet was so warm and reassuring, and her communication has been impeccable from the start. She really took the time to understand that my dog has some anxiety, and I trust her professional judgment completely when it comes to handling that with care and confidence. Her updates are always solid and thoughtful, and I’m so excited for her to continue walking my dog. Highly recommend!”


About: Owning dogs my whole life is just the tip of my experience iceberg. Throughout college, I worked with a doggy daycare and volunteered at shelters in the goldendoodle capital of the world, Utah. I have worked with the pups, the silver furred sweeties, and all ages in-between. I personally enjoy the more active breeds and am no stranger to the lengthy hikes or playtimes required to put that energy to good use. There have been some dogs in my experience that need more attention, ie. disabled pups, or injury prone breeds, and I am willing to work with whatever they need! I am new to the Charlotte area and doing part-time work, so my schedule is quite flexible and open! Weekdays are open to whatever your dogs are in need of. Your home, your rules! As I will be doing drop-ins/walks, it matters to me that you and your dogs feel comfortable and in routine! :)

“Very reliable and great with Zoey. Takes her time on her visits as well!”


About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and truly love being around animals! I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I have lots of experience pet sitting for friends and family - whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company. I currently work 4 days a week so I have 3 days fully open for pet care. New to town and missing all my family pets so would love to incorporate animals into my week! I am not able to care for pets in my apartments but am very reliable and respectful. I will follow any and all rules in your home with care. My current job requires me to visit customer homes so I understand the standards. Am nothing but nice and lovable to all animals!

“Montana was great with Percy and sent all the pictures from the walk they took! It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was happy while I’m at work! 🙂”


“Mia came super last minute when another Rover was a no-show and gave lots of updates! Would use again.”


“What a pleasure to have Karen A look after my puppies while we were out of town. She has a truly gentle nature that I know my dogs loved! And the daily updates made me feel like I was home! I cannot thank you enough Karen ❤️”


About: I’ve had dogs all my life and love to play with them, take care of them, and spend quality time. I’m a professional ballet dancer looking to spend more time taking care of pups when I’m not dancing. I’m a professional ballet dancer but am currently on a break in between performances. My schedule for the upcoming few weeks is very open and flexible! I am young and active, great with walking and handling dogs of many different aggression levels. I easily crate your dog if needed and spend a lot of time playing with them, keeping them active.

Fourth Ward dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lucia has been wonderful helping us with midday walks or backyard play. Very prompt, and we can tell our pup loves her! Highly recommend

Amazing first impression! Shannon is so passionate, kind, considerate, and caring for our pups which is very reassuring with my fur babies! Can’t wait to keep having her care for my fur babies!❤️
Our shy guy continues to get more confident with Lindsey. I am so happy to have found her. Her patience and calm demeanor have really made the difference for our dog. She is also very communicative and always on time - a great professional!

Joseph was wonderful and would highly recommend! We appreciate how communicative and responsive he is, and he was able to handle multiple dogs on short notice. You can tell through the photos he sent how much our pups were well taken care of. We will for sure be using him again in the future!

Haley was great and very attentive. She followed instructions well and even helped me with something I forgot. Lyla had the best time with Haley. Highly recommend!

I can’t recommend Lindsay enough. She walks my dog, Benson, twice a week and is always extremely communicative. It has become the highlight of my week when Lindsay sends me pictures of her and Benson’s walk. Lindsay is reliable, responsible, and clearly has a deep caring for animals.

We love Olivia! She was on time and so sweet. She went above and beyond while walking Seamus—they did a full mile in 30 minutes! My boy was pooped when he got back, which definitely helped ease my guilt on a busy day. She made me feel very comfortable and reassured me that he was well behaved. It’s always a little nerve-wracking handing the leash over and hoping they behave themselves, but she handled it perfectly. We’ll definitely be contacting her again for walks. Thanks again, Olivia!

Nate did so great with our puppy Auggie! He showed up early, was very accommodating to our dogs needs, and our dog loved him! Overall great guy and will absolutely book again!

Denise did an excellent job with my dog! Her communication was great, she gave lots of updates, and my dog had a great time!

Alyssa came through on short notice with a walk for my dog Zoe and didn’t leave a trace at the house. Great job!

Auz was great! Really good communication, notes and pictures. Highly recommend and will definitely be using her in the future!

Taylor was great with Ozzy! She took the booking in a last minute situation and really saved us. Will definitely book again

Bud loved his walk with Anne, he came back happy and tired! Thank you and we look forward to his next walks with you!!!
