So glad I found her in the Charlotte area!”

About: With a genuine love for animals and years of caring for my own pups I provide reliable, compassionate care for your pets while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or administering medication, I’m committed to ensuring your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their routine. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs and personality, and I pride myself on building trust with both pets and owners. Whether it’s a long weekend or a quick drop-in visit, I make sure your pet receives the attention they deserve. I am currently working full time from home which allows me a great deal of flexibility for walks and potty breaks through out the day! I live in a townhome home with my own furr baby Snicker, with plenty of space for and great company for our pups to run around. We have a semi fenced in patio to hang out on nice days or potty breaks if needed.

“Amazing, amazing, amazing! Took such good care of my pup and kept me updated on him. He understood about how my pup needs to take his medicine- I appreciate all they did for Cashew and his comfort! Highly recommend :)”


About: Reliable. Responsible. Nurturing. Patient. Flexible. True Dog Lover. Professional belly rubber and snuggler. I will care for your baby like they are my very own. I am currently working part time and we are working on starting up our own business in this field that we truly are passionate about! I have a fenced in yard. Cleanliness is a must as well as a great routine still filled with lots of love and dedicated care.

“If I have to leave my lil baby, it makes me so happy to leave him with someone that will love him and enjoy playing with him. Alexandra was just that. She was delightful, accommodating, and a great communicator.”



“Tawanda is by far one of the best sitters we could have left our pup with. Conveniently right outside of the city, Tawanda’s home could have easily been Nemo’s second home. With a backyard big enough to fulfill his doggy needs, Tawanda’s space would be great for any pup that likes to run around and have a good ol time with the company of her sweet dog Sampson. Tawanda was great on keeping us updated on Nemo’s status and even sending us pictures and videos during his visit. I would highly recommend this sitter and will definitely will be using her in the future.”


About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and temperaments. I trained my family corgi from a puppy. Friends and family around me often ask me to care for their dogs during the day. I work from home full-time but can take breaks every few hours (at least). I'm up early and can be flexible with your pet's needs. I will always treat your pets with care and love like they are my own. I want you and your pups to be very happy with the experience.

“Adrienne, Jarrod, and their sweet boy Remy were wonderful hosts for our Ruthie. They kept her busy with walks and indulged her frisbee habit. It was so nice that they kept me posted on all her adventures. Ruthie can't wait to see them all again soon”


About: I have had a variety of different types of four-legged babies throughout my life from the beginning and can't imagine a world without them! I'm thrilled to be a part of the Rover community, and always appreciate the opportunity to care for yours! As a devoted lifelong pet owner myself, I understand the unique needs and joys that come with caring for animals of all ages, sizes and personalities! Whether your child needs lots of attention or is indifferent, takes medication like a treat or requires a trick, gets along well with others or not…as long as you share what they need to live their best life while you’re away I will make it happen! In addition to Rover, I own a small business ("furEver heArt") creating custom, interactive pet artwork! I'm happy to offer a discount on an original "furEver heArt" creation for all of my Rover clients! I'm currently not working and am doing Rover full time. While I may step out for an hour or two, I am home the majority of the day. I have a pug pup too and sometimes she comes with me on drop ins if you have a socialized pup who’s down for a play date! I live in an apartment and don't have a fenced in yard, but my community has plenty of green spaces and dog park for potty breaks and light walking. I have several repeat clients, some who I have never met in person. I understand it can be unsettling to leave your fur-child in the care of a complete stranger! When doing drop in/walking visits, I will respect your home, your privacy, and your pet(s).

About: Hi, my name is angel I’ve worked with animals pretty much my whole life. Growing up in NYC I’ve been around a lot of different breeds from your regular German Shepard to power breeds that required further training to minimize aggression. I later found myself in the veterinary technician field and I really found my passion , my passion and my purpose is always to work with animals whether it’s a domestic or farm animal I have no limits. What sets me apart from other sitters is I have no limits when it comes to learning about my clients furry friends because I wanna establish a safe/respectful bond with my clients pets as well. So this opportunity is perfect for me and I can’t wait. I have a open availability since I’m always providing dog training services, nothing really effects my schedule due to the fact that I create my own schedule for work I always make sure that my pet client has water at all times and I like working on training methods with my client pup if training is needed

About: Hi there! I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember—starting with my own pets, then helping family and friends, and eventually fostering cats/kittens and dogs/pupies for several years. I’m deeply experienced with all kinds of personalities—from playful puppies to shy rescues—and I know how to make animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddle time, or special attention for nervous pets, I treat every animal like they’re my own. You can count on me for reliable, attentive, and compassionate care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just spending quiet time with animals, it’s second nature to me. I’ve fostered for years and regularly care for pets of family and friends, so my schedule is already built around making sure animals are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m used to adjusting my routine to meet each pet’s needs, whether that means early morning walks, medication schedules, or extra cuddle time. I work from home so that’s super helpful. I treat every pet like a little soul in my care—whether they’re staying with me or I’m in their space. In my home, I create a calm, cozy vibe with safe spaces, soft spots to rest, and plenty of love (plus playtime, if they’re into that!). When I’m in your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely so they feel grounded and secure. I move with their energy—whether that means zoomies, belly rubs, or quiet companionship.

“Ellie was great! She was kind enough to watch my dog with relatively short notice and had her from early morning to late at night while I took a day trip. I’m excited to work with her again!”

Mario L.
“I've been friends with Mario for over 20 years and, in that time, few people have come into my life who are as trustworthy or thoughtful as he is. Whenever I need anything in life, Mario is often the first person I call. He's quick to help a friend, even when they don't know they need it. Over the last year or so, I've seen how that's translated to his own dog, Snicker. Few pets in this world have it better than she does! Becoming a pet owner was only too natural for Mario, who immediately helped build a heck of a life for Snicker. She is always his first thought and first responsibility. He is extremely lucky to have found himself an incredibly fun AND well-behaved dog, but she is also incredibly lucky to have found a partner with those same traits. Overall, I couldn't recommend Mario enough. Whether it be with dogs or people, Mario is always there and always willing to lend a hand to help.”
