“Nicole is dependable and would definitely use her again. She helped let me know that my dog was having urinary issues too so I could make a vet appointment for the next day and avoid an emergency vet”
“Oralee is excellent and patient with my new rescue pup Jasper. Her communication is top notch when she is taking care of him while I’m at work. He is such a sweet shy boy and she has put him at ease on their walks.”
“Somiya was very proactive and reached out to meet my dog beforehand so that she would know how to best take care of her. I also loved the follow up pictures and notes on how my doggie behaved. I definitely recommend Somiya if you are looking for someone to go above and beyond for your pets needs!”
About: I have been around pets all my life. Volunteered as a foster mom for the humane society and took home pets that needed medication given to them. Been around active dogs like Dalmatians and Australian Shepherds as well as older, docile dogs. Did puppy training classes when I raised my Australian shepherd. I work full time so if you request a booking with me I may send you back a message with the hours I work during that time frame. I've also lowered my rates below Rovers "suggested" numbers and made it to where you can "potentially" book me last minute (If my schedule works for you, obviously). I would love to be that sitter that is helping out someone who maybe had a sitter cancel at the last minute or you had an unexpected event happen and didn't really have it in the budget to hire a pet sitter on top of everything else. Or you are just a frugal gal/guy like me and don't think it should break the bank to hire someone to watch your fur children 😊 I can crate your pets when needed, take them on walks, can administer medications if needed. I work well with lists or rules set out to follow for your pets best care in your home.
About: I’ve owned animals since a young child and love them! I am first aid and CPR certified and dedicated to providing safety and comfort to any animals I visit. I love animals and your pets are safe with me! I work flexible hours and can easily handle any requests! I can accommodate most anything you or your pets would need. I am centrally located and efficient as well. I have a fenced yard and one dog that is used to others. My home is a safe space for animals. My yard is safe, clean and a great space to run and play in.
About: Background/experience in veterinary medicine. I am very comfortable with giving medication, taking care of special needs/senior pets. I treat every pet as if they are my own. I currently own my own equine business which means I set my own hours. I am a very active person so including other animal duties into my daily life is not difficult. I treat each pet as if they were my own. I would do everything I could to keep them comfortable in their own home while their owners are away. Even if that means sitting on the floor while they take a nap so they don't feel alone.
“Gracie was a phenomenal sitter! Gracie was a pleasure to work with. She was great with communicating and reliable. She did such an excellent job taking care of my Dasher that I am hoping to get her again for the future.”
About: I’ve been passionate about caring for dogs and cats since I was a teenager. Growing up, I frequently pet sat for family members and close family friends, building a strong foundation in understanding pets’ individual needs and personalities. Over the years, I’ve gained professional experience working at several doggy daycares, where I managed groups of dogs, ensured their safety and comfort, and helped them enjoy playtime and socialization. I’ve also provided in-home pet sitting for multiple clients over the past few years, handling everything from daily feedings, walks, and medication administration to play, cuddles, and lots of love. I truly enjoy forming bonds with each pet and giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. Pet sitting is my full-time profession, which means I offer flexible and open availability to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s needs. Whether you require drop-in visits or daily walks I’m here to provide reliable support—often with little notice. Your peace of mind and your pet’s happiness are my top priorities! When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while maintaining your home exactly as you left it. Upon arrival, I follow your detailed instructions to the letter—feeding schedules, medication administration, walking routes, play preferences, and any special routines. I provide plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection tailored to your pet’s personality and energy level, whether that’s energetic fetch sessions, gentle cuddles, or quiet companionship. I send regular updates with photos and/or videos so you can see your pet is happy and relaxed. I also keep an eye on your pet’s health and behavior, and I’m prepared to contact you or an emergency vet if anything seems off. For your home, I’m respectful and tidy: I secure doors and windows, bring in mail/packages if requested, water plants, take out trash, and leave everything clean and organized. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a home that feels untouched—giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have always had a love for animals. I have two dogs and two cats. I adopted two of them. I enjoy spending time with animals, it makes me feel stress free I am currently a student athlete. I play softball and majoring Chemistry. I am currently in off season so I will have more free time. I can really fit anything in my schedule. I will safely guide your pets on their walks and their potty breaks. I will love your fur babies just like they are my own.
About: i have had four years experience working with dogs, including boarding and daycare services, as well as Rescue. this does include dogs who need medicine or special care as well. i deal with many different breeds, and sizes of dogs every day. I have 5 pups i call my own who love adventures and learning new tricks and i’ve owned cats growing up. i am not afraid to get a little fur on my clothes or even a little dirt, because what’s a pet without a little fur? I also do not mind simple grooming as i love trimming my pups nails and fur when they need it, but i am in no way a professional. i do have a young child so dogs must be okay with them. I am off atleast 2-3 days during the week. I have lunch break and some days I work night shift, My availability depends on my schedule but i typically have a few hours midday and afternoon to spare. I have 3 acres of fenced yard and plenty of toys to keep your pup safe and having fun. We do have big pens set up in case dogs need to be seperated or need a break.
About: Im staying in South Carolina more now, so I’m back to being available. I mostly stay home building a homestead, so I have some spare time. Prior Air Force medic, for 5 years, and would house, dog, and babysit for fellow members and leadership. Also, was a veterinary assistant for 1.5 years. I own three big dogs, an kitten and a tortoise, but have had the responsibility of caretaking for pets since I was young. I can schedule pretty much at any time and am willing to work longer hours, if it is needed. I am very flexible. I prefer not to drive over 40 minutes to a location for drop ins and walks, but can if you are unable to find another sitter closer to your location. I do not allow others pets in my own home due to two of my rescue dogs taking a long time to be comfortable around other dogs. I pay very close attention to the slightest changes in a pets mood and can be very reactive in an emergency situation, if it occurs. I am responsible on walks, I will keep your baby safe and not allow others to interfere with them. I will respect your rules and training that you have for your pet in your home and outside environment.

About: I have been around animals for as long as I can remember. My earliest memories go back to when I was around 2 or 3 years old petting the two cats we had under the dining room table. Later on my family got 4 of the 5 we still have today. I can't imagine life without them. I've had several dogs over the years. Winston, Sticks, and now Scooby & Nevill. My pets are family to me and when I take care of others' pets I treat them with the same respect. I've pet sat off and on for the past few years and I take the well-being of animals very seriously. I have watched over small dogs (pomeranians) and cats. However, I also feel comfortable taking care of larger dogs I have owned and befriended dogs of larger stature/strength in the past. (I had a Black Lab, my sister had a Saint Bernard, and my brother an ~90lb Pit Bull who I was very close with.) Overall the point is that I am very fond of animals and have been taking care of them my whole life. I have a deep love and respect for our furry friends. I am confident in my abilities to provide for their needs.
About: Am i a crazy cat lady? Maybe. Do I want to pet all the puppers? Possibly. I have had cats and dogs my entire life, many adopted strays, ferals, and fosters (cats and dogs). My current clowder consists of four cats. I am pretty flexible and typically available to care for your pets while you are at the office, out for the evening, or enjoying a weekend getaway. Having recently moved to South Carolina my four cats are in my home out of state with family until I buy a house here. I miss my furry companions and look forward to befriending yours. A little about some of recent challenges I've worked through with my pets: While I only have my four cats currently, I recently had a fifth cat and beagle cross the rainbow bridge. Both were adoptions who came to me with health issues. I got Maggie, my beagle, when she was eight. She had a tumor which caused seizures but lived another 7 happy years with me. Garfield, my cat, was five and came to me with an inoperable hernia, blood disorder, and weighing 25lbs! He was a big boy, but I worked to get him down to a healthy weight of 18 pounds and lived to be 11. Of the four cats I have currently, two were ferals and two were strays. It has taken a lot of work and patience, but all four are docile and fairly trusting of humans.
About: I am a pet lover and very active person. I would love to provide services to you and your family, while also allowing myself time to stay fit and active. I have a Siberian Husky of my own that I take for 2 mile runs daily. I have also worked in social services for several years. I am easy to reach by telephone and can assist you in whatever way possible. Each service listed here is quite descriptive but I can also discuss them with you if you have any questions. You will not be disappointed once you book me. My pet car experience and special skills set me apart from other sitters and walkers. Your pet will show the difference once they board or walk with me!
About: I have been around animals for my whole life. Has taken care of dogs, cats, and all types of animals. which that includes dairy goats! Preferably full time, but i can also do part time. On Thursday's i’m only available on the evening time. But on the other week days i’m available all day! I will make sure your dogs will be well taken care of, and get enough exercise!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Gaston. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Gaston.

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 walker 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 .

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
