“Dominique stayed at our home for 5 nights, watching our two dogs. She was very communicative, and shared many great and cute photos! She left the home immaculate and we could not have asked for a better in-home sitter!”
“Andrea was a dream to work with! She came over first to meet our pup before we left. She took great care of our home and sent a ton of photos which is what I asked for. We would definitely use Andrea again to watch our pet and stay at our home! We are so lucky to have found her.”
“Chelsea did a great job with my fur baby while I was out of town. She was communicative and respectful. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“Breana did a great job house sitting for our animals. The animals were well taken care of and she left our house neater than she found it. I also really appreciated the daily updates and photos she sent.”
“Awesome experience - will definitely look to book with her again next time we're out of town. We received great pics while we were away. It was nice seeing our dogs snuggling up with her looking comfortable and relaxed. One of our pups was having some allergy issues while we were away. We received pics pretty quickly when she started looking a little rashy and asking us to confirm how we wanted her to handle it (as we had discussed before the trip). She reacted fast and our dog was happy and healthy by the time we got home with no rash or redness at all. We're very happy to recommend her. Our dogs and our home were in great hands while we were away.”
“Nina was/is WONDERFUL 🫶🏻 she did a meet and greet with our boys before staying and they took to her instantly. During her stay she updated us and sent pictures. I know she truly cared for our babies as her own and will definitely keep in contact for future needs!”
“Mel has been wonderful to help with our kitties on multiple occasions. She is great about sending updates, pictures, and is very reliable. I will definitely continue to hire Mel in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Korie! I’ve been a dedicated pet parent my entire life.🐾 From newborn puppies to the gentle needs of seniors, I’ve experienced it all with my own beloved pets. I specialize in personalized care for every life stage. Whether your senior needs help with medications and mobility or your new puppy needs consistent potty training and basic commands, I am here to support them. My goal is to maintain your pet's routine and provide the same level of deep, unconditional love you do. To me, they aren’t just pets—they are our four-legged family members. ❤️ I am available for walks and drop-in visits weeknights and full-day availability weekends. Whether it's an after-work potty break or a weekend of play, your pet will have my undivided attention! I approach every home with respect and care for every pet as if they were part of my own family, providing you with thorough photo updates and complete peace of mind after each visit.
“Karena was a wonderful pet sitter for us! Our usually skittish chihuahua mix even came to like sitting by jet and getting pets. Her calm caring energy really helps anxious dogs! Karena also sent pics and videos throughout our booking which was very reassuring. Overall, we highly recommend her!”
About: My personal exposure to pets ranges from 3 large dogs to 2 cats of very different personalities! My sweet dog, Ruby, was adopted when she was 1 month old and has been my best friend for 11 years. She is a Heeler (high energy, I know!), which means I know the importance of attention and exercise for high energy animals. Since I have raised her from her little years, puppies are not a struggle for me! I know the importance of attention and careful care to ensure the little ones don't hurt themselves, others or destroy anything in their wake. My previous pets have lived long happy lives, with their senior years giving me amazing skills when caring for friends, family and other client's senior pets. Due to my personal experiences with a senior pet, I know the importance of their schedule and care. But also the fear felt by pet owners when leaving their sweet senior in the hands of a stranger. So regardless of if they are little babies, in the prime of their life or old and wise, I will take care of your pet like its my own till you return! I am currently a graduate student with a flexible schedule. Since I have open availability, what you need for your pet is my priority. I can do whatever your pet needs! I have stayed at clients homes previously, both after our initial visit as well as neighbors. Like my care with your pet, treating your space with only respect and care is my priority. Along with caring for your pet, I will take great care of your space regardless if I am staying there or just visiting during your time away. Also, if you have plants that need care... I am happy to see to them as well! I am a plant parent too!
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around 7 years old. I’ve owned cats, dogs, hamsters a rabbit and a snake! I’ve always had a strong passion for animals which eventually led me to becoming vegan almost 7 years ago! I’ve pet sit and gone on walks for family and friends over the years. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! This is my full time job and I’m currently trying to build up clientele so if you don’t see a time available that you need, please reach out so we can work something out. I am not able to board at my home due to my own animals but I am able to provide overnight services at your home.
About: I’ve owned and experienced so many dogs from a very young age. I have cared for, birthed, rehabilitated and rehoused many of them over the years. I love animals and I understand that they understand as well, which plays a big part in their general care. As this is my full time job, my personal schedule would be curated around the care for your pets, as your pets would be priority. Whenever I am scheduled to visit or be with your pets they'd require the same intention and attention as if they were children because they are.😉 In my own I would make sure each and every pet had their specific needs available and met. I would make sure that my home was prepared for that specific need as well as gauge what might need to adjust and be added based off what they're showing me. In your own home it would be the same in each way it’s supposed to. I would provide attentive and aware care to each pet with discernment.
“This was my first time using Rover.com. Cindy made me feel at ease. She gave me daily updates, and sent pictures. We were on a late flight back from the west coast and Cindy stayed with our dogs until we were sure the flight was on time and even checked in the following morning to be sure we were home. I would recommend Cindy!”
“This was the second time I used Stephanie and she was just as incredible this time as she was last. She sent me lots of pictures and I could genuinely tell she was showing my dogs love. I would highly recommend Stephanie.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have spent the last 9 years pet sitting for friends and family. I also worked in pet stores for a while, so I’ve cared for all animals. I’m a student over at UNCC, so I’m in the University City area pretty much 24/7. When I’m watching your pet, I treat them like my own. I’m super careful about making sure harnesses are secure on walks and staying on top of feeding times or meds. You’ll definitely get a ton of photo updates from me while you're away so you know they’re doing okay! I am currently on summer break so I am open to whenever you need me. I have a car so I am able to drive as well. I have plenty of experience with all animals. I have been pet sitting for years as well as worked at pet stores and handled pet care so I have experience with all types of animals.
“Lindsey took fantastic care of my dogs and cat. She has stayed with them in the past and I was thrilled when she was able to stay again. I know she takes extraordinary care of my babies, even my senior boy who gets medication twice a day. Thank you again, Lindsey! Hope to see you next time!!!”
“Kennedy was the best!! She took great care of both our dogs and cats! She sent great pictures and gave us frequent updates. We couldn't have asked for more, we would absolutely book Kennedy again!”
“Camryn was amazing. She checked in regularly & sent photos of my 3 pups. I could tell they were having a blast with her. They are all senior gals, the oldest being 17. When I got home, they were all so happy, everything was clean (including them! Which is hard when you're battling incontinence and bladder issues). Camryn is top notch and my gals cannot wait for me to go out of town again!!!”

Kayla watched my 12 week old Shih Tzu. She did such an amazing job with her. I was nervous about leaving my puppy for a few days but Kayla quickly eased my concerns when we had the meet and greet. She also kept the house very clean. I will be booking Kayla again.
Brad was excellent! He sent photos everyday. The house looks the same as we left it, maybe even better. He handled giving my dog oral medications well. He also helped coordinate a dog door installation which was unexpected. I would highly recommend Brad for your house sitting needs as the dogs were well cared for and safe.
My dogs were well cared for while I was away. I very much appreciated Macallan's ability to deal with an unexpected issue of a critter getting into the yard and under the deck and my younger dog trying to get under there with it. He was very communicative of what had happened and how he dealt with it as well as keeping me well informed of the dogs medicines etc.
We LOOOOVE Kalyn!!!! She was one of the best pet sitters we have ever had. She was loving and caring towards our pets and treated them like her own. she gave us consistent updates throughout the week and they always were so happy. She took wonderful care of our home as well. the pets and I can’t wait to have her back in the future 🐶💓
Olivia was absolutely amazing! She is extremely trustworthy and you can tell she cares a lot. She took great care of our animals while we were away for several days and made sure they got walks, play time, lots of love, and kept us updated with cute pictures. One of our dogs suffers from chronic ear allergies and has anxiety, so he can scratch himself sometimes but she made sure to apply his ear ointment and his ears were clear by the time we got home! We will definitely book her again, and I highly recommend her!
Finn was absolutely amazing. My poor pup got sick and Finn was so attentive and ended up taking them to the vet for me. He got a shot and some nausea medicine which Finn administered and kept me updated the entire time. My rescue pup is very reactive and loved Finn from the second they met. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely use again
Trystin did a great job housesitting and taking care of our dog Teddy! She was responsive and very communicative throughout the time. She also left the house in great shape, going above and beyond what we asked of her, and Teddy was content! We would hire Trystin again.
Hanna was FANTASTIC!!!!!! She took excellent care of our fur baby as well as our house. She paid close attention to details and instructions. She sent updates, photos, videos every day and responded quickly if I texted her. She’s dependable, honest and has strong ethics regarding the care of my dog. Highly recommended her
