About: As a lifelong dog lover, I know how much your pet means to you. With years of hands-on experience and a genuine passion for animals, I’m committed to giving your furry family members the same attentive, loving care I give my own. You can count on me to keep your pet happy, healthy, and safe while you’re away. Since I attend school part-time, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available for pet sitting throughout the week. This gives me plenty of time to care for your pet, provide companionship, and shower them with love and attention while you’re away. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I have a fully fenced-in yard, providing a secure space for your dog to play and relax without worry. My dog Jake is very friendly with people, children, and other dogs. He’ll come over to say hello, then head back to his bed—or ours—where he spends most of his day. You can rest assured that your furry family member will be safe and well-cared for during their stay.

About: Growing up I always had pets; dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, fish and have always been an animal lover. Two kids later, potty training another living thing is not a priority but I cant resist tail wags and couch snuggles whenever I’m around animals. I am very active and would love to be the person to help get the zoomies out of your doggo or check in on other furry friends. I have had dogs of my own and have experience with crate training and will help to encourage existing basic training behaviors. I work remotely full time and am typically an early riser. I have two kids that keep me busy but my schedule is very flexible. I am happy to come over to check in on your fur babies, take them on walks or sit with them for a few hours while I get my work done.

“Kristin was punctual, kind, very attentive to all my pup’s idiosyncrasies and generally a joy to work with. Would absolutely hire her again. Thank you!”

“Alexis was absolutely fantastic with Lula! Lula clearly had a great time with her. Had a great walk, play time and just spent time with her. From the moment she stepped into my apartment, Lula instantly took to her. I also have two cats who warned right up to her as well. Would never be able to recommend her enough to anyone who needs a pet sitter/walker.”

Caroline W.

“I cannot say enough great things! There is no better feeling than having someone you trust watch your animal! She went above and beyond to make sure my pup was well looked after! I am so grateful that she was able to watch my pup which allowed me to be able to really relax and enjoy my vacation!!!”

About: I love all creatures. I personally have 3 of my own(2 dogs/1 cat) and I'm always looking to meet and care for other ppl's creatures when need be. I live near the Asheville airport & work nearby. I work day & evening shifts, which gives me time to visit creature clients. Prefer no overnights, due to my pets, but can swing a night or 2 if needed. Can do early am/late pm visits. I’ll make sure your babies are well taken care of. If they allow me I will give them lots of hugs, maybe a kiss or two. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

About: Hi! I might be new to Rover but not pet sitting! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently own two pugs and a soon to be therapy dog named Zoey. I also live with my husband Mike! He is an engineer at Duke Energy & isn’t always home. But I work from home so cuddles are always available for your pup! Beyond caring for my own pets, I’ve volunteered with the Blue Ridge Humane Society and spent several years fostering animals in need, helping them transition into loving forever homes. Through fostering, I’ve gained experience working with shy, energetic, anxious, and special needs pets, always focusing on patience, safety, and positive reinforcement. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and caring companion while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Please reach out for special requests. I can try to accommodate such as picking up your pet or dropping you off at the airport. I live 6 minutes away from AVL. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members🐾 I currently work from home so if you have an anxious, high energy, sleepy, and separation anxiety I’m your girl! I am a Rover customer as well so I will your dogs just like I would want another Rover sitter to! All dogs are allowed on the couch & bed! I sleep with my 3 crazy sweet dogs. I do have a fenced yard. We also have a dog park in our community! I take my dogs there every day after work.

“I highly recommend Laina. I hired her to take and pickup Peace at daycare. Peace has anxiety and Laina was very gentle with him. She has patience, compassion and very understanding…..which is what I need when it comes to Peace. Thank you Laina! 😊👏😊👏😊👏👏👏👏❤️”

“Our dog took to Ashlee like she was family. She was always there when she planned to be and the communication was excellent. We are so grateful for her professional approach and hometown kindness. Well done!”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for at least 15 years, being my own, family/friends, and others. Experienced with small to large breeds dogs with elder care experience including walking/standing restrictions, special diet needs, and medication distribution. I'm currently studying online courses and can be available most hours and days for pet care with little restrictions. My schedule is very flexible at the moment. I treat your home and pets with the utmost respect, treating them as if they were my own. My main goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine to minimize anxiety while you are away. I strictly follow all feeding, medication, and exercise guidelines, and I provide photo updates after each visit for your total peace of mind.

“Jennie is the best dog walker/caretaker you could ever ask for! She’s been great with my Nessa, who can be leash reactive. She helped me train her, has been patient beyond belief, and has always left me detailed information about her walks. More than that, she is an all around stellar person. Would give her 6 stars if I could!”

Laura C.

“Cassandra was great. I can tell that she really loves pets. My dog Shiloh loved her!”

Robert B.

“Lindsey is so great with my little puppy and I greatly appreciate her afternoon walks with him! Her communication is fantastic. Highly recommend!”

About: Rescuing dogs — especially puppies — is the most rewarding feeling in life. The most important thing with our furry friends is consistency. If you're stricter with your dog, you need a sitter who'll uphold those rules, not let them slide. I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family for years, and I've learned that it's not about what I want — it's about honoring what the owner has built with their pet. I work with the public in my day job, so patience is second nature to me. Pets are no different. They need someone who can read their energy, stay calm, and meet them where they're at. I also love running and playing with animals. Exercise is huge — but I get that a walk isn't always about distance. Sometimes they need to run. Sometimes they need to stop and smell everything. I match their pace, not mine. I don't know if anything really sets me apart from other sitters. I just genuinely want to be there for the furry family member. My availability in inconsistent due to Firefighting but I will always respond as soon as I'm able too. I understand due to my schedule I won't the best sitter for if you need someone daily, but if you need someone to drop-in, walk your dog, or just need a night out, feel free to leave a message. Currently working for a fire department, schedule can be inconsistent. Great for drop in play times and walks. Days off from fire department can be great for unexpected care. Currently unable to have pets in home due to renting rules. Will make sure to confirm and follow all rules with you before accepting the job.

“Krista took my dog Brody on many walks. It was so nice to know he was being well taken care of while I'm at work. She is an excellent communicator and sent pictures each time she walked my boy. Will absolutely book again!”

Jenny

“My dog has a lot of separation anxiety, and Kristen was amazing with her. The communication, photos, and updates made such a difference, and I felt completely at ease knowing Rosie and Pete were loved and cared for. They’re my babies, and I’m so thankful to have found someone who understands that. Thank you!”

Alison N.

“Bryan was great with our dog. He kept me posted on important details I might need to know about his time with her. He was great with responding quickly when I had questions. He was patient with our dog and very trustworthy. I’d hire him again if given the chance.”

Wendy C.

“I just moved to NC and was so very happy to have found Ryan to care for my two dogs when I am at work. She came over and spent a lot of time getting to know my furry kids, asking a lot of questions about their habits/quirks, and has been able to handle both dogs with ease. Also, my dogs can be very finicky when it comes to meeting new people and they both took to Ryan immediately. I would highly recommend Ryan as a caretaker for dogs, or any animal.”
