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 have watched most of my families dogs, including taking care of my own two puppies. I love walking already, walking dogs just adds a little fun to it I’m currently taking online college courses so I’m free basically all day everyday. Walking dogs also helps with my health and exercise. It also gives me something to do during the day besides homework or house work I have a fenced in back yard as well as 4 friendly dogs. I will follow instructions perfectly. I can provide peace of mind by sending regular photos of a clients dogs on walks or after walks, as well as detailed post-walk reports.
“Lillian did an amazing job with Tucker! She kept us up to date with photos. She also went above and beyond taking him on multiple walks and carrying in packages. Would recommend Lillian for your pet sitting needs”
“Briana was very gracious to accept a sitting schedule last min when a work event popped up suddenly. She took great care of my cat Lacey and let me know if any behavioral changes. It gave me peace of mind to know she was well attended to!”
About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals and understand that every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and cared for while their family is away. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and other small pets, providing personalized care based on each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s feeding, administering basic medications, daily walks, playtime, potty breaks, or simply offering companionship and plenty of cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important consistency is, so I strive to maintain your pet’s normal schedule to help them feel comfortable and secure. As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust it takes to leave your beloved companion in someone else’s care. That’s why I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. My goal is simple: to give your pet a fun, safe, and loving experience while giving you confidence that they’re in caring hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and am self-employed, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long hours. Because I manage my own schedule, I can easily accommodate a pet’s specific needs and routine. Whether your pet enjoys active play, regular walks, or simply having someone nearby for comfort and attention, I’m able to give them consistent care and supervision throughout the day. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away—just like they’re part of the family. I care for every pet as if they were a member of my own family. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special needs so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets receive a safe, clean, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, potty breaks, fresh water, meals according to their schedule, and lots of affection. I work from home, so I’m able to provide frequent supervision and companionship throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll follow your instructions carefully for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and bedtime routines while also keeping your home clean and respected. I provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is always to make your pet feel loved, safe, and stress-free until you’re back home.

“Bret did an outstanding job. Katy was his first Yorkie and weighing in at 4+ pounds I suspect she was a handful. Bret was prompt, courteous and very cordial during his visits with Katy. He forwarded excellent pictures and was continually looking for ways to make his care for Katy as normal as possible. We will be traveling this summer for a week and Bret is already scheduled to care for our Katy. We look forward to working with Bret again, excellent work.”
“Shajoya is an incredible pet sitter. My cats and dog LOVE her, it is so sweet to know that they get excited to see her and hang out with her. She is very communicative, professional, and kind. She sends updates and pictures of the pets and it is priceless to know I don't have to worry about my pets when Shakoya is with them. Thank you so much Shakoya!!!”

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs of various breeds since I was a small child. Family, friends and acquaintances have trusted me to pet sit, walk, and play with their fur babies on multiple occasions over the years. I'm currently a stay at home parent with a very flexible schedule. I miss having pets of my own and would love to care for yours! I would be happy to care for your pets! I would take care of your fur babies as if they were my own. I will be respectful of your home keeping it clean and tidy, while making sure your pets have all the exercise, attention, and snuggles they need so you can enjoy your getaway or have peace of mind while you're at work.

About: I have grown up around animals my whole life & even fostered animals for a short period. From chihuahuas to great pyrenees, I have experience with them all. I have a full time job as a Social Worker, but I am 100% available to you and your pets during the weekends, early mornings, and weeknights. Looking forward to meeting your pups and kitties! My goal is to make sure your pet is happy. My personal pet has separation anxiety and I understand the fear in leaving your pet home alone. I will make sure your fur baby is cared for in every way possible!
“This was our first time leaving our boys with a sitter and we were so nervous but Chloe did an excellent job reassuring us + providing updates so we still felt like we were home with them! She sent photos, videos, and communicated with us throughout the booking; we will absolutely book with Chloe in the future if she’s available!”
“My pup was well taken care of due to this drop in! This was my first time using this app and of course it somehow had my old address. Once I realized the mishap Joshua was already at my old apartment but had no issue driving to the new location! So grateful! I had put in a request on such short notice & they picked it up with no problem! Great service and response time 😊”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Wylie
Rebecca was amazing! We couldn't have asked for a better person to care for Nala while we were away. Since Nala is a very routine oriented dog, Rebecca did a fantastic job maintaining her daily schedule and keeping her comfortable. Nala usually takes time to trust new people, but she quickly felt safe and cared for with Rebecca, which gave us great peace of mind. Rebecca was also very flexible with scheduling, worked great with the hours we needed, and was always available to answer any questions or address any concerns. She was attentive, patient, and genuinely cared for Nala as if she were her own. We highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lake Wylie stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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 pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.
