“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!”
“Joseph is the best you could ask for. Reliable, responsible, kind, and my 2 dogs absolutely adore him. In fact, they go absolutely insane when he walks through the door. Seriously, Joseph is awesome!”
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.
“So grateful Samantha was able to come on such short notice. She was great!”
“Just one week into having Max (and his fiancé) take care of my two dogs and I’m already so impressed. Max and Jen took the time to get to know my dogs and asked tons of questions prior to starting weekly walks. They are both incredibly communicative and timely, send pictures and updates for each walk, and have been extremely patient with my female pup, who can be shy around new people. I will definitely turn to Max and Jen for any future dog sitting needs!”
“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!”
“Sarah was great with my dog over the weekend and sent me plenty of pictures to make sure we were well informed. She had a very affordable rate and was available without issue. If I need any additional walks in the future I will be sure to keep her in mind!”
“Nicole was great and my dogs loved her!”
“Very reliable and great with Zoey. Takes her time on her visits as well!”
“I feel confident leaving my dogs with Averi to walk, feed, and play with. She’s so communicative, responsive, and patient with my dogs. So happy to come back to happy pups!”
About: When I was younger I started a petsitting business in my neighborhood, so I've always loved taking care of animals. I’ve got a cat of my own, and my sweet senior dog passed away October 2024, so I’m definitely ready for some more snuggles! I can go early morning or after work on the weekdays and I’m off work on the weekends! I do have a full time job so midday is limited but I have some work from home days. Just reach out and we can make something work! I have a sweet cat that is fine around most animals but would need some time to adjust. She’s a snuggly girl that loves everyone.
“Thank you for taking care of my pup so well!”
About: I have lived with / owned pets since I was born, and currently I have 2 cats of my own! I love cats and dogs, and will take very good care of any that I watch! I love giving them exercise, good food, and scratches. I am available during most weekends to take care of your fur babies! I work a corporate 8-5, but I am available when I’m not working my full time job. I make sure that pets are fed, have enough water, get exercise, and attention. As a pet owner I know how much people miss their pets when they are out of town, so I will send lots of pictures!
“Steve was amazing once again, my girls are a lot to handle and I had 100 percent trust in him taking care of my babies while I was out of town! He updated me with pictures putting my mind at ease! Steve is great and highly recommended! My girls loved him which again made my trip less stressful knowing they were taking care of!!”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life and have loved taking care of them. I’ve pet sit for family and friends for years that included walks, baths, and play. I freelance in the TV and Film industry and am currently in between jobs and have loads of free time! I make my own schedule so I’m able to accommodate clients needs for their pets. I’m at the Village at Commonwealth which is an extremely pet friendly apartment complex. I live next to a large park with paths all around. It’s just me and my cat Kris, who absolutely loves dogs.
About: I grew up surrounded by lots of cats and have been caring for them my whole life. I also have a dog and a cat of my own now, so I truly understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I naturally connect with dogs and cats of all kinds — shy, playful, big, or small — and I trained my own dog, so I’m comfortable handling different needs and personalities. I love giving every pet the same care and attention I’d want for my own fur babies. I recently had to quit my full time job to focus on my school. So i am mostly available. For the walks i prefer early or after 4-5pm because of the heat but otherwise i am mostly available. When I visit your home for walking or drop-in visits, I make sure to follow your pet’s routine closely — from feeding schedules to playtime preferences and any special needs. I spend quality time with them, offering lots of attention, gentle play, and calm companionship to help them feel safe and happy while you’re away. During walks, I keep your dog’s pace and personality in mind — whether they love energetic runs or slower strolls — and always prioritize their safety and comfort. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re my own.
“Keegan is great! She really cares about the dogs and their personalities. She notices the details about their behavior and knows how best to engage with them. Both times she spent the full 30 or 60 minutes with my dogs. She sent lots of pictures and notes about how things went. Best experience with rover so far.”

Grier Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Karen and Xavier took our three dogs for a walk, and they were attentive, prompt and communicative as always. We look forward to working with them again!
Mona helped look after and care for my dog through a hot Charlotte summer. She is reliable for routine care and communicates her availability well. Thanks again for all the help!
They were amazing with Colby & even gave my cat some love also! They are very communicative & made it very easy to trust them, highly recommend!
I can’t say enough great things about Lauren. As my first time using the app/service I was highly impressed. Throughout each walk, Lauren updated with daily photos and messages, letting me know how things were going. It gave me such peace of mind to know my dog was being loved, walked, and cared for like one of their own. I came home to a happy dog. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and truly passionate about pets, I highly recommend Lauren. I’ll definitely be booking again!
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!
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!
If "Above & beyond" were a person, it would be Elizabeth! The care Elizabeth showed for Diesel, from the meet & greet til their last walk was incredible. Diesel, who is known to be... "selective", got excited anytime she heard the buzzer sound and walked to the hallway and greet Elizabeth when they arrived. Normally she is very coy, but not with Elizabeth! It takes weeks for Diesel to warm to someone, but Elizabeth had her in days. It was clear that Elizabeth has a passion for dogs. Administratively, Elizabeth was prompt, communicative, and professional at all times. She displayed extraordinary patience before and during the booking process, as there were some issues on Rover's end. I would not hesitate to recommend Elizabeth to care for your animal. I will certainly be relying on her again, to care for mine.
Denise did an excellent job with my dog! Her communication was great, she gave lots of updates, and my dog had a great time!
Auz was great! Really good communication, notes and pictures. Highly recommend and will definitely be using her in the future!
Wesley does a great job with the pups and makes sure they get out for some good exercise and to take care of business.
Kai was the absolute best!!! We needed some extra special care with pick ups and walks the day of our wedding. Kai went above and beyond. 1000% recommend!!!!
Alex has been helpful and friendly with taking care of Arya. He was able to schedule a visit to meet Arya and help take care of her in no time at all!
John connected immediately with my 2 reactive boxers and provided excellent communication and service.
Bubba adored Lilith from their first meeting. He bounces in after every walk to tell me what a great time he had!
Christina was excellent and was available to walk and feed my girls on short notice for the holiday weekend. Was a huge relief that my girls were in such good care all weekend
Megan is truly a delight to work with and I feel so grateful to have her in my puppy’s life. She is helpful with puppy training and thoughtful about her interactions and commentary with him each visit. She has helped reenforce puppy training and given great advice when we needed help or had questions. Mango looks forward to Megan each visit, and I am always confident he is in good hands. Thank you Megan!!
