About: I’ve always loved dogs. Since I was little kid we had a dog in our house. I’ve learned to take care and appreciate and be responsible for a pet. I’m normally always free in the mornings and afternoons. I’m pretty flexible with scheduling and can accommodate with someone’s needs. But most of my free time is in the morning to afternoon. I take the time to make sure the dogs are ok with me before taking them out or playing with them. I want the dog to feel safe and enjoy the play time and human interaction.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years now both for paying customers and my own Cavalier King Charles (2). I can be relied on to follow the directions of the owners and to ensure the safety and well-being of the dogs. I’m reliable and trustworthy, always showing up on time and reporting any necessary information back to the owners. You won’t be sorry if you trust me with your doggie! I’m available at any time. Weekdays or weekends. I can do stop in visits one or more times a day or more often as needed. Or even every once in a while. You can trust me to come to your house daily or as needed and safely enter the home and care for your dog per your instructions, i.e. meds, meals, playtime, book reading :), walks, etc.

About: I am a self-professed animal lover and my care for animals started with our family dog, Kip, when I was just 8 years old. Since then I have cared for and walked neighbors, friends, family and colleagues pets. I love being outside and will ensure your pets are well looked after, walked and treated as one of the family. My schedule is currently very flexible so if you need care last minute please do get in contact. I have my own transport so can make my way to you swiftly. I typically work most weekdays and weekends if scheduled in advance (if appropriate). Simply, I will do what ever is necessary to make sure your pets is happy and well looked after. Whilst I do not offer overnight home boarding (I have two elderly hounds), should they ever need to come to my home I have a fenced in back yard. I am happy to abide by crate training if required and always have toys, a bed and training treats on hand, just in case. I ALWAYS bring water on my walks and plan my days to ensure we are not walking in the heat of the day. I am happy to walk early in the morning and later at night. I have used cool coats before so I am also happy to add this to my routine. I never try and rush a pet. Whether it is a nervous cat or young pup, I take my time, not jumping straight in. I try not to let them off the leash immediately so we can build trust and I do not rush them to be my friend.

“If there was an option for 6 stars, that would be my rating! Brooke and Caleb were both excellent! They not only fed our 4 cats, refilled their water fountain, and kept our Litter Robot running smoothly. But they also swept up stray litter that our cats tracked into the kitchen. They also played with our cats and posted pictures and updates of them in the Rover app. If they are available the next time I go out of town for several days, I will definitely be using them again. I would also recommend them for anyone who is looking for this type of service. Your pets will be in excellent hands.”

About: Dog's are my loves. Theyre treated like princes (and princesses) when in my care. I've had dogs ever since I was born and I wouldn't have it any other way. I previously owned a black lab, 7 years old, named Bear. We Iost him on 12/29/17 in a hit and run while I was out of town. He was a medium sized lab and the sweetest in the world. As I’m obviously heartbroken by the loss of a piece of my family missing, I find refugee in loving animals, as I know Bear would love more friends to play with if he were still home. I am an advocate of dogs being family, so they can be up on the couch, on the bed. I don't like to feed the dogs people food because it creates beggars, but I do like to spoil them. My fur baby has enough toys to keep a village occupied. I’m a dog loving woman, and it will never be questioned. I currently stay at home, so I have unlimited availability to be able to give your furry friend the attention that they need, and accommodate your needs as well. I have a fenced in yard, and one pup to keep your's company. I'm also able to keep the dogs separated and crate yours if that's what makes them most comfortable.

“I’m very happy I found Carmen on Rover. I know my dog Arena loves people and being spoiled, but she’s usually very nervous around new people at first. Carmen has been incredibly patient, giving Arena the time and space she needs to feel safe and get comfortable. I truly appreciate how great she’s been during this first week, checking in on Arena while I’m at work. I fully trust her to take my pup on walks and care for her.”

About: I have been a CNA for 7 years, and have been walking/pet sitting on the side for 4 years. I love being able to help people in anyway I can! I am currently a senior nursing student so my schedule varies. I am free any time on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Tuesdays I am available anytime after 3pm, and Wednesdays I am available anytime after 5pm! I think that exercise and attention is extremely important when it comes to our pets. I always make sure to have enrichment toys for my pets when I am not home, and always make sure to walk my babies every day!

About: Hello! I've cared for dogs, exotic birds, cats, squirrels, sugar gliders, and even chickens. I am comfortable caring for special needs animals, older animals and some* babies, and administering medications. I have experience with service dogs and I'm happy caring for Chihuahuas all the way up to Great Danes. ---> □ All of my prices are flexible. Rover has me put in a value per animal which can get expensive so definitely talk to me and we can work something out! I have a 20% off promo code for first time users. ☆ I can also wash and dry most animals, trim cats, birds, and dogs' nails, and properly clip a bird's wings so they cannot fly away or over fences(chickens). This includes trimming some* small animals nails. These activites really depend on your pet and if I can safely do it. I cannot give cute haircuts as I'm not a groomer. ☆ I am also experienced in basic dog training if you need help calming your pet, so they stop jumping on people or potty training. For the training to take effect, however, I'd need more than a one-time visit with. Recurring walks are okay, but if you have issues you want me to address when they are inside the house, my walks won't be able to target the behavior.] I started Rover as a college student with a pretty open schedule. Now I have a full time job from M-F, 7am-3pm. Due to this, I can only accommodate bookings that fall on weekends, or bookings where the pets are used to their owners leaving for work for 8 hours. No matter what serivce I'm providing I will make sure they (the pets) get enough potty breaks, exercise regularly, are hydrated and healthy, and have a great fun time! We can even try some simple training to keep them alert and happy for treats. I am also really good with anxious or hyper pets. I've been told I'm good at reassuring them and keeping them calm while their parents are away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a few years now. I understand your dogs are your babies so taking care of them and modifying to their needs is one of my biggest priorities! I have a lot of free time to take care of your fur babies! The summer weather is perfect for walks! My schedule is very flexible, I would love to plan some meet & greets in order to meet you and your animals! In my home, your dogs would be like a part of my everyday routine. I would prefer to care for them in their own environment of course!

About: I got my first dog when I was 11 but as soon as I moved out I got my own fur baby, Jax! He is a black lab, chow chow, and Chinese Shar-pei mix (yes I did the genetics test, I had to!). He is the light of my life. I also have a rescue named Roo who I adore. This is when I realized the value and love pets bring to our life. I have also worked on horse farms and have cared for reptiles! I know how to handle emergencies and dogs with specific needs. I hope to meet your fur baby some time whether it be for a walk or a drop in visit! Hope to hear from you soon! I work from home so I’m very flexible, especially if you’re close, I can come in my lunch break or before or after work. I have my own vehicle as well. I’m going to follow your care plan as you give it to me so I can care for them as close to you as possible. Whether that involves training, crates, whatever it is, I’m here to back up the care you see fit for your fur baby!

About: As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet. 🐾 I have years of experience caring for my own dog and have also house sat and cared for friends’ pets while they were away. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and following your pet’s normal routine. Most importantly, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! ❤️ I currently work a full-time 9–5 schedule, but I have flexibility throughout the day for pet care! I’m available for early morning visits, lunchtime check ins or walks, and evenings after work. I’m also happy to coordinate with pet parents to find a schedule that works best for their pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Safety is always a priority, so I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. At this time, I’m happy to provide pet sitting and care in your home, but I’m not currently able to host pets in my own home. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for!

About: I’ve always been passionate about dogs and grew up surrounded by them. I started my Rover profile after my sweet Ollie passed away in January. Since I work from home, I love having a furry companion around to keep me company throughout the day. Rover is something I genuinely enjoy as a hobby, not my full-time job. I offer a calm, home-like environment where dogs receive plenty of individual attention. I’m very selective about the dogs I welcome into my home and host a maximum of two dogs at a time. They can be from the same household or different owners, as long as they get along well. If you’re looking for a place where your dog will interact with several dogs throughout the day, I may not be the best fit. I prefer keeping things small, comfortable, and stress-free for everyone. For everyone’s safety, I ask that dogs are up to date on vaccinations and preferably on flea and tick prevention. We have a 0.3-acre yard that is regularly treated, but I like to take extra precautions. If you think we’d be a good fit, feel free to send me a message. I always require a meet and greet before confirming a booking to make sure everyone is comfortable and that it’s a good match. I work from home, so your pet will get plenty of attention throughout the day! I’m flexible with walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and can adjust to your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize a safe, clean, and calm environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely, give them plenty of love and supervision, and always keep an eye on their comfort and well-being. You’ll get regular updates, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life — I got my first puppy at age seven and haven’t been without a furry friend since! Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including seniors and pups with special needs. I’m comfortable giving medication, following special routines, and providing extra patience and love when needed. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family, no matter their age or needs. Your pet will be treated with the same care and attention I give my own! I work from home full-time and spend my days with my two young boys, who absolutely adore animals of all kinds. Our daily routine naturally revolves around pets — we take multiple walks throughout the day, play outside in our spacious yard, and make sure every dog gets plenty of love, exercise, and mental stimulation. Because we’re always home and active, your pup will be treated like part of the family and never be lonely. Whether it’s a quiet nap inside, fun playtime with the kids, or a stroll through the neighborhood, pets are truly woven into our everyday life. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, we have a fully fenced, secure yard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore safely under my watchful eye. Inside, pets have free roam of our spacious, tiled downstairs area, making it easy to keep everything clean, comfortable, and safe. I supervise all playtime closely to ensure everyone gets along and has fun. Whether your pup loves to play fetch in the yard, lounge inside, or get belly rubs from my kids, they’ll feel right at home — safe, loved, and part of the family every moment they’re here.

I cannot say enough great things about Susan! She went above and beyond my expectations. She didn’t just stop by to walk and feed my dog; she genuinely spent quality time with him, made sure he was comfortable, and gave him so much attention and care. I have a Beagle who struggles with pretty severe separation anxiety, so leaving him for four days while we went on a road trip was something I was a little nervous about. But when we walked through the door after being away for four days, he was so calm and relaxed! That alone told me how well Susan cared for him and how comfortable he felt while we were gone. It means so much to know your fur baby isn’t just being looked after but genuinely loved and cared for while you’re away. Susan exceeded every expectation, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and loving to care for their pet. We will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️🐾

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Kannapolis

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Kannapolis is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 4,575 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Kannapolis. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Kannapolis choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter 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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Kannapolis with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kannapolis. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
