“Sierra has been walking my dog for several months now, is dependable, communicates well, and lets me know her schedule in advance. It's such a load off my mind knowing Champ will get outside for a walk, and I can focus on work. I highly recommend Sierra.”
“I really like Kaitlyn, she is great with Bentley, and sends photo updates. I truly trust Kaitlyn with my dog, she is really reliable and have been able to count on her for last minute walks when I need them. Highly recommend.”
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 :-)
About: Animals have been my life since the day I was born. In fact, "cat" was the first word I ever said (true story!). I grew up on a small farm caring for horses, donkeys, cows, chickens, barn cats, and more. In my adult life, I've always had at least one or two furry friends around. I've cared for senior cats, rescue cats, pups of all shapes and sizes ... even a fully trained German Shepherd (who comes everywhere with me!). Right now, I have a fully trained German Shepherd (Dally) and two rescue cats (Otto and Harper). I try to incorporate them into my daily life as much as possible. The cats sometimes explore our property and supervise as my daughter and I do yard work. Dally comes everywhere with me (hiking, bike rides, camping, neighborhood walks, out-of-state family vacations, and more). My schedule is their schedule and I wouldn't have it any other way! I prioritize calm, reassuring environments and practice positive reinforcement (rather than disciplinary punishment) when training, teaching, or exposing my pets to new things. Soft, sweet, and encouraging is my approach.
“Ashley is wonderful! She is completely trust worthy and so sweet. Our golden George loves her. I will be using her services every time I need someone to take care of our fur baby George!”
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: You will receive 24/7 care. I provide a continuous care service, ensuring that pets are accompanied at all times. I treat pets as if they were part of my family. I take walks, games and activities that stimulate them physically and mentally. I provide photos and videos at all times while your faithful friend is with me. I can take care of pets preferably in the mornings before 2 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.
“A great big thank you to Nicole! Over time, she has helped my dog get so much more confident and relaxed with having new people in our house. I am sure it is because of Nicole's own calm demeanor. I've really appreciated her good suggestions and insights. I'm thrilled with the progress my dog has made! :):):)”
“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“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!”
About: I have enjoyed taking care of animals since a young age…bunnies, birds, fish etc. However, when I owned my first dog as an adult, a Westie named Charlie, it was even more special for me. He required a lot of attention since he had sensitive skin and allergies. Now that he has passed, I love to be around and take care of animals whenever possible. I have dog sat for several friends and family members. I enjoy the time I get to spend with dogs playing and on their walks. I work part time with specific days and hours that I am available, however, I can be flexible sometimes. I will need notice before making accommodations. Let me know what’s your needs are. I have a medium sized fenced in yard and I live in a quiet area with surrounding wildlife. I can make a crate available or you can bring yours along.
About: Hello! I offer services in dog walking, with prior experience having 3 medium-large sized dogs of my own that love long walks. I have been called on to look after family friends’ dogs, offering in home visits to let the dogs out multiple times a day, play with them, and feed them. I am also very comfortable caring for cats. I have had cats of my own for years now, and am very comfortable being around them. I am relaxed, compassionate, caring and enjoy working with animals. Animals always seem to love me, too! I am flexible in my schedule and will typically be able to accommodate you and your pets needs! House visits and walking are my specialties, and I am able to do overnight stays as well. I’d love to take care of your pet when you need some extra help, and I look forward to meeting you!
About: With over 14 years of dedicated pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My passion for animals started early, growing up surrounded by pets, which naturally led me to care for dogs professionally. Over the years, I’ve provided loving boarding, reliable dog walking, and attentive in-home care, ensuring every dog feels safe, happy, and at ease. I specialize in creating a stress-free environment where dogs can relax, play, and thrive. Whether it’s managing high-energy pups with engaging activities, caring for senior dogs with special needs, or simply offering belly rubs and companionship, I tailor my care to each dog’s unique personality. Your dog will enjoy a comfortable, secure setting with plenty of outdoor time, personalized attention, and, of course, lots of love. My goal is to make your pet feel like they’re part of the family while you’re away, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. I work from home, which means your pup will have my company for most, if not all, of the day. This allows me to provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. Whether I’m at my desk or taking a break, your dog will never feel alone. I can easily adjust my schedule to meet their needs, ensuring they get the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. I have 2 acres of fully fenced-in property, providing a safe and secure environment where your furry friend can run, play, and explore freely. The spacious yard allows for plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and tail-wagging fun, all within a secure boundary for your peace of mind. I’ve created an environment built on trust and safety, ensuring your pup has the freedom to enjoy the outdoors while being closely supervised. It’s the perfect blend of space, security, and comfort for your dog to feel right at home.
About: Hi! I'm Maria, new to the Rover community but not new to the animal community! I have worked in the past as a vet tech- experienced in administering medicine, fluids, and injections, as well as boarding and petsitting. From an early age, I've always loved animals and have felt like they were my calling. I have a dog of my own, as well as 2 guinea pigs, and a turtle. I know pets are like family, and how important it is to find quality care for them so my goal is make your pets feel as comfortable and safe as can be in your absence. I have a fenced in yard, two enthusiastic animal loving assistants, and have an open and flexible schedule to help meet your personalized needs. I live in a quiet subdivision that makes for a peaceful dog walking experience. I also live 5 mins away from a park if that is your dog walking preference. We are also an active family and go on hikes at least twice a week. We can fit in more hikes if need be...we love nature! Dogs will be leashed when they are outside with the exception of our fenced in yard. I have an available crate and dog gates and can accommodate your dog's needs if you wish for them to be kept separate from pets or if that's simply the way you've trained them at home. Making the recent big move from NYC to beautiful North Carolina has now made it possible for me to offer my animal loving services and experience, and I am so grateful for it! I am excited to meet you and your pets and hope to be able to offer you a peace of mind while they are under my care! I am a currently a stay at home mom. I homeschool my older girls from home so I have an open and flexible availability. I am happy to offer boarding, pet-sitting, and dog walking. I have a fenced in yard. I also have a dog of my own but can easily keep them separate if that is your preference.

Charles E.
“Leaving your pup in someone else's care can be stressful, but Charles makes me feel comfortable and confident that Copper is in the best hands. If I need a dog sitter, Charles is the first person I contact. Charles is reliable, consistent, kind, and gentle. He loves my boy so much, and my boy loves him right back! He does a great job of sending photo & video updates, which is so helpful from someone who really struggles to be away from their pup. Copper always comes home wiped out and happy. I would highly recommend Charles for any dog sitting needs. He'll treat your pet like his own!”
Maria L.
“Finally a place for Sonny that won’t undermine his training! When I met Maria, I was pleasantly surprised by how attentive she was when learning about Sonny’s needs- she even took notes! Sonny has a sensitive tummy and a water fixation- stressful combo. In the past two years, I‘ve tried leaving Sonny with pet sitters and boarding places, but they would not take these issues seriously. I’d often tell them about the vet visits and training that we’ve done with Sonny. I’d tell them about his diet restrictions and how we’ve learned to “set him up for success” at home. In the past, those sitters would yes me to death but when I’d pick Sonny up, I’d see that he was bloated and his stool would be loose for days afterwards. However, Maria understood that each pet is different and respected the hard work that went into getting Sonny healthy and house broken. She appreciated when I explained what worked for us and made an effort to replicate those conditions during Sonny’s stay and it made all the difference! When I picked Sonny up after a weeklong stay, he was contently exhausted from playing with their Frenchie, Stella. I was so delighted with how happy and healthy Sonny appeared. In a world where so- called dog experts become jaded by their years in the field that they tune out the hard earned truths that us dog parents can provide, Maria is a God send. Needless to say, Sonny has now stayed with Maria multiple times and I’ll continue to book her in the future. Once you find someone you can trust with your fur-baby, never let go!”
