“First time using rover for our pup and Arell made this a super easy process! Great communication, great care for our pup and was even able to accept our last minute booking! Will book again!”

“I'm so grateful that I found Tarynne on Rover.. she's hands down, THE BEST!! I needed someone last minute to walk my pup and feed him while out of town. She promptly scheduled a meet up and Zero took to her pretty quickly. I was able to go over a few things and provide some instructions which she ultimately followed to a T. While away, she showed up on time for every visit (my Ring notifications were exactly at the scheduled times) and constantly sent pupdates. Tarynne took Zero for nice long walks, loved on him, and fed him morning and night! It's such a relief to know that he and my home were in such good hands! Tarynne is extremely responsible, respectful, kind, and treats your fur baby as her own. I wouldn't want anyone else to take care of my little buddy. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!”

“Thank you so much, Jeff! It’s very comforting, knowing that the girls have someone who really cares about them to take care of them while we are away. I will definitely be in touch soon as we have another couple of short trips planned this summer.”

“Bret was great with the pups and even made sure to add extra visits so that our pups were not in the kinnels alone for too long. Very much recommended Bret and the service he provides!!”

“Micah is the absolute BEST!! She took super good care of our puppy dog. She went over and above what I would consider excellent care by doing everything we asked and more. While we were away our sink started to leak. Micah took care to protect our kitchen until we got home to repair it. Like I said, over and above. Do not hesitate to let Micah take care of your pets, you won’t regret it”

“Gonzalo was absolutely amazing caring for our animals! He went above and beyond with keeping us updated, and giving extra to our little dog that’s more shy and timid. We would recommend him to anyone looking for animal care and we’ll definitely be using him in the future!”

About: Hi! I’ve been pet-sitting since I was 15 and caring for family pets since I was little. I’ve always loved giving special attention to pets and getting to know their personalities. My family dog is in his senior years and we’ve taken great care of his specific needs, always making sure he’s not in pain and receives the love he deserves. I’ve been around animals of all sizes. I'm a dependable and caring animal lover. While I'm new to Rover, I've spent years around pets and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I'm active, attentive, and committed to making sure every walk is safe, fun, and tailored to your dog's needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or a slower pace, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. I believe pet parents should feel at ease about how their pets are being taken care of. Regular updates, photos, and communication are an essential part of pet care. I understand that every pet is part of the family, and I'll treat your pet with the same care and respect I would give my own. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently working part-time and I have a loose routine which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry family members! It’s important for me to keep to the schedules and familiarity of a pets’ routine and make a visit as stress free as possible. Being aware of surroundings on walks and ensuring safety for a pet is a top priority, which builds their trust and leads to more enjoyable play time. Paying attention their behavior and small signs of discomfort reassures owners that I care for their animals in the same way they would.
About: I provide dependable pet care for dogs and cats of all sizes. I have 17+ years of pet sitting experience and bring a calm, confident approach that helps pets feel safe and comfortable right away. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and can offer consistent attention throughout the day—especially helpful for pets who need routine or don’t like being alone for long. I offer extended care/house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, but I do not provide overnight stays. I’m very comfortable with large dogs (I have a 4-year-old 110 lb Great Pyrenees), but I genuinely enjoy caring for pets of all personalities and sizes. I adjust my care to what each pet needs—whether that’s energy, structure, or calm companionship. I also have 8 years of experience as a personal assistant, so I’m reliable, organized, and detail-oriented when it comes to following instructions and communicating clearly. What you can expect from me: 🐾 17+ years of pet sitting experience 🐾 Calm, confident care for all sizes 🐾 Work-from-home flexibility = more consistent attention 🐾 Experienced with large dogs 🐾 Reliable communication + thoughtful updates 🐾 8 years of personal assistant experience—organized, reliable, detail-oriented 🐾 Respectful care for your home and routine Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to plan my day around walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting needs without rushing or squeezing pets in. I’m already used to being home and present throughout the day, so I can easily give pets consistent attention, regular breaks, and companionship. On a weekly basis, I’m able to reliably accommodate recurring care as well as one-time bookings, and I make sure each visit is fully built into my schedule so pets always get my focused time and care. In a client’s home, I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I take time to understand each pet’s needs, personality, and schedule ahead of time, and I make sure feedings, walks, playtime, and any medications are done exactly as instructed. I also focus on creating a calm, reassuring presence so pets feel relaxed rather than stressed by the change in routine. My visits are never rushed—I stay present, give them real attention, and make sure they’re getting both care and companionship. I also keep owners updated with clear, thoughtful messages so they always know how their pet is doing.
About: Hi everyone! My name is McKenna. I have been a registered nurse in the Charlotte area for 5 years. I have had dogs all my life, walked dogs through Wag all during college, and now have a golden retriever of my own. Dogs have definitely always been a huge part of my life! Being a dog mom, I understand how scary it can be to trust someone else with your pup. My own experience with Rover and the amount of love Sully received from his sitter put me at ease. I strive to do the same for other pet parents!! I only work 3 days a week, so drop in visits or walks are the perfect way to spend my days off. :) I’m a registered nurse working 3 days a week, so I have plenty of time to spend on my days off caring for your pups. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel at ease when they’re away (been there!), and my goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. As a nurse, I’m naturally very dependable, detail-oriented, and used to being trusted with important responsibilities. I bring that same level of care and attention when looking after someone’s pet. I know dogs feel most comfortable when their routine stays the same, so I always follow the owner’s instructions closely for walks, feeding, and playtime. I keep things calm and positive so the dog feels safe with me. I give dogs time to warm up to me, especially if they’re shy at first, and I use play, treats (if allowed), and walks to help them relax. Since I have a young golden retriever of my own, I understand how important it is to know your dog is being cared for with patience and kindness.

I am completely open to any animals such as dogs, lizards, bunnies, birds, even snakes! I’ve helped reactive dogs, sick dogs, and I’ve even owned a bearded dragon! I am just now finishing my second semester of college and will be available full-time during the first week of May! I’m open to anything from just a walk, to a week’s worth of care. I offer walking, feeding, filling water bowls, playing, brushing, bathing, anything you may need. Even watering your plants if needed! Just ask for special requests in advance.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 10 years and truly love spending time with animals. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and cats with different personalities. Every pet receives individual attention, regular walks, playtime, fresh water, and lots of love. I always send photo updates so owners know their pets are safe, comfortable, and happy. I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Pets receive regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding on schedule, and lots of affection. I always adjust my routine to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while staying with me. I provide a clean, calm, and safe home where pets receive individual attention. Although I live in an apartment, our community has large green areas and a dedicated dog park for daily walks and exercise. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions. I treat every pet like family and send regular photo updates so owners always know their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve spent years caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, reptiles, and other small animals. I currently manage a busy homestead and rabbitry, giving me extensive hands-on experience with feeding schedules, medication administration, cleaning routines, and monitoring animal health and behavior. I have experience working with puppies, senior pets, and animals that require extra patience and attention. I am also actively involved in service dog training, which has strengthened my understanding of positive reinforcement, consistency, and animal behavior. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize safety, comfort, exercise, and plenty of love while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, cuddles, or specialized care, I am committed to providing dependable and compassionate service As a recent high school graduate with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for pets. Animals are a daily part of my life through my dog, rabbitry, cats, chickens, and other pets. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship while making sure each pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with patience, kindness, and respect. Through owning and caring for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, and poultry, I have developed a strong understanding of animal behavior and daily care needs. I am also actively involved in training my service dog, which has taught me the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and safety. I follow all owner instructions carefully and provide regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet is receiving the best possible care.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. I used to have a sweet girl named Susie who filled my heart with love and taught me so much about patience, responsibility, and compassion. After she passed away three years ago, I’ve continued caring for pets belonging to neighbors, friends, and family whenever they go out of town. Whether it’s walking, feeding, bathing, or giving extra cuddles, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and safe while their owners are away. From energetic puppies to calm senior dogs, I’m experienced in adapting to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I do have a puppy named cocoa as of December 2025. She is the light of our lives!! We love her so much. I work from home three days a week and go into the office twice, so I have a very flexible schedule! On my work-from-home days, I’m available all day to give your pup plenty of love, walks, and attention. Even on my office days, I can still accommodate morning, evening, and overnight visits as needed. Your pet will always be in a safe, supervised environment where they can feel right at home. I’m attentive, caring, and but most importantly will love your fur babies like they’re my own. I can also easily crate your dog if needed or follow any specific routines you prefer.
“Was so excited to have Alyssa help us again with Sunny. She’s just the best and leaves the best notes on her time with our pup. Dependable and highly attentive with our reactive dog.”

About: I am a college student at WCU! And since I was a little girl I have cared for animals and my heart grows bigger for them each day! I understand it is scary leaving your baby in the hands of someone new but I am more than willing to prove myself that I am the best! I have volunteered at many animal shelters and have walked plenty of dogs (including my teachers) on campus! I am currently working part time, my schedule is very flexible. I can care for pets most mornings and evening, and several mid days a week! Every client is different, I understand you have certain rules for your babies and I am more than willing to listen to them! Need your baby to walk for 40 minutes? Let’s get our walk in! Need the little one in a crate when I leave? More than happy to!

“Lola had a great week staying home during my first work trip in over a year thanks to Beckye! She was timely w the potty break visits and Lola got some great play time and small walks, when she was willing! Lol she can be stubborn. Would hire her again without question.”

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 Lake Wylie. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Wylie. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
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.
