“Had a wonderful experience with Azia. She was prompt with my drop off and pick up times and flexible to my schedule. She sent lots of pictures which I loved! Bella seemed to warm up very quickly to her and made herself right at home. We will definitely be coming back :)”

“Ashly was incredible with our little golden doodle pup! We were very nervous at first with a sitter since we only had him for 4 days but she made us feel comfortable and safe!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life and they are the center of my world. Over a decade ago, I began walking and sitting dogs for friends and family. This led to working at a boarding kennel and walking dogs through Barkly (another sitting service) while I was in college. In recent years, I’ve been frequently caring for my friends and neighbors pets while they are away. Previous clients have expressed that they are appreciative of how I treat and love on their pets like they are my own. That includes many pictures and videos for you while you’re away. One time, I even crocheted a sweater for the pup during their stay! Spending time with and caring for dogs is a special kind of therapy that I can’t get enough of. I am currently available to watch animals full time, both on weekdays or weekends (depending on the service). That means plenty of walks and full attention to your pet’s care. I live in a secure apartment that has plenty of room for your dog to play and feel right at home. It is always kept tidy and safe for furry friends. There is a secure balcony and big windows for people watching. Dogs are welcome on furniture and the bed. If you prefer to provide a crate, that works too!

“Ana was great! She was very responsive and accommodating with scheduling. I so appreciated all the photos and updates she provided throughout the day, it was easy to tell my pup was having a wonderful time!”

“We've been so happy with Enzo's daycare! Busy is an energetic dog full of personality and Enzo has welcome her into his home and made sure that her play with other dogs is safe and fun! She's made a lot of friends (with both dogs and human members of the house) and is absolutely exhausted when she comes home- who doesn't look a sleeping dog?!? Enzo sends tons of updates throughout the day and is always available if I need to reach him. We will definitely continue to book with Enzo in the future!!”

“Adrienne & Jarrod are incredible! They are kind, responsive, and accommodating which made the experience stress-free. Through the numerous photos they provided it was clear that our dog, Harley, got along very well with Remy and received a great balance of exercise and enrichment throughout the day. Harley can't wait for her next stay!”

“The best dog sitter I’ve ever used! Casey is communicative, helpful, dependable, so nice, and takes the best pictures :). I feel very safe leaving my dog with her all day! Will definitely use her again for any future needs”

“Thank you so much for watching Benji and being so flexible!!! Benji loved hanging out with you and your puppy and I would love for you to watch him again sometime :)”

“Shannon is awesome! With my busy work schedule, she was okay with a late night pick up. She even recorded when Georgia drank water, went outside, etc. Georgia even got to cuddle up in bed with her. Such a great experience with Shannon and Rover knowing that my fur baby was well taken care of. We will definitely be returning for future help with Georgia. 10/10 recommend.”

About: Since my earliest memory I have been in love with animals of all shapes, sizes, and species, with dogs and cats holding a special place in my heart. When asked as a child what I wanted to be it was always a Veterinarian without hesitation. Though I eventually decided not to pursue that, I always had my own animals to care for and found some of my most cherished bonds that I will treasure forever. I currently don’t have any pets of my own but I’ve been assisting my girlfriend with her Rover account the last couple years and decided it was time to go ahead and start my own. We have looked after many pets in the last couple years and I have loved every one of them. They have the time of their lives with us and couldn’t find a more loving, fun, and safe and comfortable place than what we offer them. Owners are often almost surprised how much their pet ends up liking us, which I’m proud of. And it’s my honor everytime to share a little bit of life with them, as it would be given the honor to watch yours. I know how much people love their pets, and I reciprocate that to them however long they’re with me. Long story short, I love your pet already. 😁 I am currently fully available anytime any day of the week so my schedule is open to give the maximum attention to your loved one. I have a large roomy apartment with plenty of space to play, with a huge field of grass, and a large balcony with nice views overlooking it. The neighborhood is also great for walks, with a nature trail riverwalk just a block away. My folks also live right on Lake Wylie which dogs love visiting.

About: I’ve raised, fostered, and cared for pets for over two decades, including puppies, seniors, reactive dogs, and everything in between! I can administer medication, and provide special care. I have trained my own dogs (seven), fosters under my care (over 30), and helped friends and clients train their dogs. I am happy to reinforce any training you are currently doing with your pet, so all of your hard work does not get undone. Whether it is daily walks and stimulation, an overnight stay, or an extended trip, you can rest easy knowing your loved one will receive love and attention, exercise, enrichment, and all the snack snacks you’ll allow! I have my own business and work from home. I’m fortunate to have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to prioritize pets’ needs (walks, potty breaks, playtime). Under my care, your loved one will be my top priority. I have a fenced in yard, and two friendly dogs. However, your pup’s safety and comfort will be a top priority. My dogs are crate trained, and if yours is too, I’m happy to reinforce that. I can also keep dogs separated, and still provide ample space for them to feel comfortable. My home is very safe, quiet, and dog friendly.

“Cullen took great care of our girl!! We got tons of pictures and she looked very happy and relaxed in all of them :)”

“My interaction with Liz while setting up daycare was very thorough but also very helpful, since this was my 1st Rover stay for my pet. Cooper had a visit and I can say from the numerous photos I received he made himself at home and looked well cared for. We have already scheduled additional daycare and a boarding session. I feel fortunate to have found someone who truly enjoys what she does.”

“Mathias is amazing - made it so easy for me and Louie (my 7 month old pug). He clearly loves Bodhi and all the other fur babies that are in his care. Also, really easy to communicate with and he sent me a ton of pictures throughout the day. I will book him again!”

Meg M.

“Very good service !”

“Dakota was excited to see Maria first thing this morning! She thrives on attention, so being the only dog makes Maria her favorite. I loved getting the pictures while at work, although Dakota doesn’t make it easy. She hates her picture taken.😄”

Mary Ann M.

“Allison was a pleasure from our consultation call to picking up Oscar. I truly appreciated the updates throughout the day, leaving your puppy for the first can be very difficult, but Allison made it a breeze.”
