About: Hi! I'm Brianna, your friendly neighborhood pet enthusiast, and dedicated pet sitter. I've had pets all throughout my childhood and love animals. I have experience as a Kennel Assistant working with senior, high energy, and special needs dogs. Walks, playtime, or just comfort, I'm here for your fluffy best friend! I am a recent college graduate currently with open availability. I have pets of my own at home and free time to spend with other pets outside the house! I can accommodate to whatever your fluffy friend needs inside and outside the house in a safe and loving environment. I would recommend that your pets have all their up to date vaccinations since I have pets of my own in the house. For cats that may be nervous or not a fan other cats, I can separate my cats from them so that each cat can either be upstairs or downstairs and they can alternate based on their comfortability.
About: Hi! I'm Michelle. I have over 34 years of experience in the field of veterinarian medicine, training and behavior modification. We offer overnight boarding as well as daycare for cats, dogs, and other pets. To prevent the spread of illness, we require that all pups be up to date on Rabies, Bordetella (kennel cough) and DHPP (parvo). In addition, cats should be current on Rabies and FeLv. Please send vaccine records to records@rufflanding (.com) We also ask that you provide your pets regular food, as sudden diet changes can upset their tummy. We have everything else they could possibly need! Our client service hours are: M-F 8-10AM & 3-6PM Sat & Sun 8-10AM We offer: Socialization, walks, friendly playmates, trips to the dog park if permitted, medication administration, constant potty breaks, photos and baths (upon request), and tons of affection! It's the next best thing to being home! Petcare is my full time business. I work from home sitting and boarding as well as hosting foster pets occasionally. Aside from dropping in on established pets or taking them on walks, I am home full time. We have a securely fenced yard and pets are constantly supervised when outside. We take potty breaks every 2 hours. We schedule socialization, enrichment and playtime activities to keep them busy and entertained.
“My dog Kobe is a high energy breed who needs his speed walks everyday. When I am sick or away, I needed to find someone who can give him the high energy walks he needs and I found that perfect person in Darya! I have used her three times already and already booked her for three more. Kobe comes home happy, excited and tired all in one. Darya has exceeded my expectations!”
“Ansley is super sweet and really works with you to meet your dogs needs. She is patient and kind and loves Archie like I love Archie. He loves her too! I couldn’t recommend Ansley enough for all of your dog care needs.”
About: I have had dogs since 2013. I had three, I currently have two. One of them had epilepsy, this gave me experience with seizures and administering medicine. I also worked at a doggy day care for 1 year, there I cared for large groups of dogs. We fed them, changed out water 4-5 times a day, picked up after them and played with them. I'm knowledgeable about dog behavior and how to avoid situations that would be harmful. I know to test the pavement heat before a walk on hot days. I'm currently seeking steady employment but am wanting to make this my steady job. I'm available during the week from six am to 5 pm I'm currently unable to pet sit in my home. I'm more than happy to pet sit in the dogs/cats home that makes the pets more comfortable as well since it's not a strange house with strange smells. I'm more than happy to drop in or stay for awhile. I enjoy taking walks and it's always good to have a friend (your pet) with me.
About: Hi, im Stephanie. I've taken care of animals my entire life. I've worked alongside rescues, boarding facilities and also pet sitting for friends and family. I love that I can be the one pet owners can count on to show their beloved pets the love they deserve when they can't be there. For as long as I can remember I have always wanted to work with animals. While working at a boarding facility I was able to provide care for a variety of dogs and cats. I am able to do basic training (sit, stay, down, wait, and leash manners ect...). I am comfortable giving medication and or special accommodations for your pet. I am currently available with a very flexible schedule to help you with your pets needs. I am able to do drop ins and walks at this time. Safety and precaution are extremely important to me. I am very aware of my surroundings at all times while out and while in the home. Your pet will be protected as my own.
“Nicole was amazing! I contacted her last minute to walk my pup and she was completely willing to help me out. Copper seemed happy when we arrived home later. I would definitely book her again :)”
About: Hi! My name is Carissa, I am a recent graduate from the University of South Carolina. I'm originally from Pennsylvania! I’ve lived in downtown Eugene, OR ; Miami, FL ; Columbia, SC ; and now Georgia! I’ve hosted and have had multiple house visits with other dogs and cats! I’ve watched dogs ranging from a mini daschund to a great pyrenees! I grew up with a golden retriever and 2 cats, and now my family in Pennsylvania just lost our pitbull blue heeler mix (she was my absolute best friend). Some of my favorite hobbies include: reading, eating, taking photos, binge watching shows, and exercising. I've done daily walks for a dachshund while living in Miami, have hosted a bunch in Oregon, I had a weekly dog I’d daycare for and other bookings in Georgia, as well as my repeat pups and cats from Columbia! I have a little (lol) pup of my own! We rescued her from the shelter back in September, and she truly has become my soul dog. You can view her info on my profile I am pretty sure- she’s a pitbull Great Dane! Please send me a message and I will get back very quickly if I can or can’t! My schedule is fairly flexible- I do work full time. I do work full-time, but we can talk schedules to see how flexible I can be that week! I obviously have a dog of my own, but my bf and I usually have alternating schedules to adhere to her! (He’s also available on his off days if you’re comfortable to do what’s needed for a drop in/walk) I am currently not accepting any boarding because I am renting with my boyfriend until we can move into a house of our own! I am very watchful of pets because I want only the best for them and the peace of mind for you. Leash always outside, very mindful of surroundings, I do not let your dogs interact with others (even if you say its okay- its more of a personal thing I don't like to do). If you’d like for our dogs to meet and see if they mesh well for play dates- I’d love to chat about it!
About: As a dedicated pet owner and experienced caregiver, I understand that pets are family. Choosing someone to care for them requires trust, and I strive to provide every pet and owner with reliability, professionalism, and peace of mind. I have experience caring for animals through both personal and family settings, including feeding, walking, bathing, grooming, playtime, and attending to their daily needs. I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I have completed training and certifications in several areas of pet care, including: • Dog Psychology • Dog Training Basics • Dog and Cat First Aid Care and Maintenance • Preventing Pet Poisoning from Household Products • Recognizing Early Signs of Cancer in Pets • Understanding Heartworms and Chagas Disease • Understanding Why Cats Stop Using the Litter Box As a pet owner myself, I care for my dog, Titan, and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and individualized attention. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and comfort levels, and I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. Your pet’s safety is always a top priority. I maintain a pet-friendly environment by keeping spaces clean and free of hazards, securing off-limit areas, and ensuring potentially harmful items remain out of reach. Please let me know about any special instructions, medical needs, routines, fears, or favorite activities your pet may have. The more I know, the better I can provide the personalized care they deserve. I look forward to caring for your furry family members and giving you confidence that they’re in trustworthy, capable, and compassionate hands. Reliable. Certified. Experienced. Caring for your pets like they’re my own. I care for my Titan. We play and I walk him everyday. I am very caring, loving, and gentle with him. I also groom him. He is a also a certified ESA. We work diligently everyday to refine his behavior and I am very patient with the process. I close the doors to rooms they shouldn’t go in. I don’t leave cords lying around or other potentially harmful things to pets. I keep the floors clear of items and clean.

About: With over five years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs — from energetic play sessions and long walks to quiet cuddle time. I’m experienced with basic training reinforcement, feeding schedules, bathing, and giving medication when needed. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment so your dog feels happy and secure while you’re away, giving you complete peace of mind. Available for house sitting any day of the week. On Mon–Wed, I won’t be at the home 24/7, but I’ll still provide regular check-ins, potty breaks every 2–4 hours, and overnight stays as needed. Whether I’m caring for your pets in your home or mine, I treat them like family — the same way I care for my own two fur babies, Romi (my sweet Schnauzer) and Mocha (my playful Yorkie). Every day, I make sure they get plenty of fresh water, nutritious meals on schedule, regular potty breaks, and walks that match their energy levels. We play, cuddle, and keep a routine that makes them feel secure and loved. I bring that same approach to every pet I look after — paying attention to their unique personality, comfort level, and needs. I’m mindful of safety on walks, keeping pets away from hazards and monitoring them closely around other animals. During pet sitting visits, I make sure your pet gets not just the basics, but also companionship, mental stimulation, and affection. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a midday walk, or staying overnight, I’ll follow your instructions to the letter while giving your pet all the love and care they deserve.
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for dogs. I had a dog named Bella who was part of my family for 10 years, which taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding a dog’s needs at every stage of life. I am attentive, reliable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s providing exercise, companionship, or extra attention, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m currently working part time and looking to watching and walking your pets.Im available to help anytime during the week and weekends when i’m needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure the home is kept clean and that any specific instructions from the owner are followed carefully. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I rescued my dog about five years ago! I always try to help strays whenever I can. I have three dogs living with me and my family currently. I bathe and walk them and take them on drives occasionally to get a puppuccino from Starbucks! :) I believe dogs are a part of the family, which is why my dogs are just as comfortable on their dog beds, as they are on our couches and beds. I love all animals, but have a special place in my heart for dogs. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of availability open for your pets! I love all animals and want a future career aimed towards that specialty! Depending on the pet and its personality, I am open for cuddles and being lazy together, or for walks and getting out some energy by throwing the ball in the backyard!
About: I’ve used a different walking app before and I love being around cats and dogs! I’ve recently got a cute cat and his name is Alfred and recently Nala and they are the best thing ever!

About: I have worked and been around animals since I was born. I use to work for a reserve rehabilitator and animal shop owner. I have worked with many breeds of cats and dogs and understand each one can be uniquely different. What works for one may not always work for another. I’m retired navy so I have all day to work with your animals. I can do drop ins throughout the day to check on them to let them out or take on a walk. Pretty flexible schedule. In my home I have a 5 year old husky who has been raised around cats and puppies. He is good at helping correct puppies. He has had one litter of his own pups. I do not have a fenced yard, but can take them on leash in the yard and live in a nice neighborhood to walk your animal. If you want crate training I have a couple already here at the house

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 363 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Matthews. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
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 Matthews. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Matthews.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
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.
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. 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 .

- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs

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.
