“Joanne immediately won over my pups, even my shy boy who usually takes his time warming up to someone. She sent me pics throughout the day and even extended her stay because one of my girls was nervous because of a thunderstorm. My dogs love her which means everything!”


“I was nervous about someone we just met staying in my home with my dogs while we were away. Also, I have three pitties who come with a LOT of energy. Chris did an excellent job of making us feel comfortable at the two meet and greets, as well as this past weekend while we were in Tennessee. She was communicative and very helpful. She left the house cleaner than when she arrived. It’s safe to say that, given how it has gone so far, we are much more confident going to France for almost two weeks in a few days here. We’re confident Chris will take care of our home and pups. Got ourselves a dog sitter.”


“Susan did an outstanding job pet sitting for our 3 dogs and 5 cats for an overnight! She was very communicative with us and extremely responsive. The house looked great when we got home. Highly recommend!”


“Tresalyn was absolutely wonderful! She was available and willing very last minute. Her communication was clear and kept me updated on her arrival. She asked questions and was super sweet to Cynder. Pictures came regularly and she even treated Cynder to a Pup Cup after asking me if she had ever had one! 😁 I asked her to put sheets in the wash and she went ahead and made the bed. House was perfectly kept and I would absolutely have Tresalyn come again!”


“Elizabeth was great! She came to the house to meet the animals before we left for vacation to make sure we felt comfortable. She’s a great communicator and we got multiple pictures updates everyday we were away!”


“Elizabeth doesn't just sit your dogs she adopts them. Our Ella got very sick while we were gone and Elizabeth took such good care of her and kept us informed. I really can't say enough about how Elizabeth went out of her way to take care of our sick girl, her genuine concern and compassion was matched by actions.”


“We had a great experience with JoHannah! She was able to spend a lot of time with my 5 pets while we were away. She sent many photos and was quick to respond when we reached out. The house was clean and the pets were calm when we returned from our trip. Would book with her again. Thanks JoHannah!”


“This was our first time using Rover and Blair was amazing!! Blair watched our 4 dogs (large & small) for 4 days and stayed the night with them, she sent us pictures and gave us daily updates. We could not have asked for better care for our fur babies. I would highly recommend Blair to anyone that needs care for their dogs, we will definitely be using Blair again!!”



“Lyn was timely, kind, and did a great job taking care of our home and our three animals. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Our fur babies loved her and our high anxiety dog was glued to her side the whole time. He felt so comfortable with her.”


About: Welcome, Thank you for interest, my name is Gabriel, your personal pet concierge. "Doing the ordinary, so you can be extraordinary!" I've enjoyed working with pet's and their family's in WNC for over 10 years. I seek to expand my knowledge about working with animal's, and appreciate when new tip's, trick's, and methods to communicate with our beloved pet's. Let's keep it simple, schedule a meet & greet now. Looking forward to meeting to you soon, Gabriel Lopez ~Blessings~ My schedule varies depending on work. I am able to schedule through Rover to keep me working. I am happy to find time that works for us both. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex. We have enclosed deck, and bark park. There is also a trail hike and downtown in walking distance.

About: My name is Brady, and I’ve been taking care of dogs and kids in my community for around 4 years; I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, cats, and other smaller pets. I have clients who I’ve sat for many times over the years, for days or weeks; and I can handle some of the grosser situations I can stay at the house with the pet or check on them as often as needed, all days of the week. I have more than enough time on my hands to spend with the animals if needed too! My dogs at my parents house get walked daily, and they’re checked on regularly. I try to do as many normal feeding procedures as possible.

“Kara did a wonderful job staying with our babies. She cared for them as though they were her own and was very attentive to their needs. She respected our space and theirs. We will definitely be reaching out in the future with any other needs. Gunner, Zara and Simba loved her.”


“Amelia is a doll! The dogs love her and she is super sweet and conscientious.”


“So sweet and amazing with my large, dog reactive dog and elderly cat! Kept me updated and I felt really assured that they were well taken care of.”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 4 years and i have experience in kennel training and walking! i would love to come see your dog! I am available any weekday after 2 and all day on weekends. i am also available to do overnight visits and longer visits if needed! I have 2 dogs and a cat at home and i am an animal lover! i love to cuddle and play with your dogs and give them the attention they need while your gone.

“Shakara was amazing. She cared for a dog like she was her own, giving lots of love and snuggles. She sent us daily updates and photos and was just kind and lovely to work with. We are so grateful we found her!”


“Renee was the absolute sweetest and so so caring and loving towards our pups. We felt so at ease and reassured having her there to tend to our dogs while we were away. She was very communicative and responsive and left plenty of updates and pictures so we could keep up to date while gone. I would definitely have Renee help us out again in the future. She went above and beyond to care for not only our two dogs, but also to take care of our space (vacuuming, watering plants, and stripping the bed at the end of her visit). You can truly tell how much she loves and cares for animals, and that’s the exact kind of person you want taking care of your pets while away.”


About: I love dogs plain and simple and am hoping to do something more constructive with my free time. I have owned and raised dogs since I was a kid and have a deep affection for them. I am very active so I can wear your pup out or can keep it calm and indoors if need be. I recently lost my Lab, Zapa, to old age and could use all of the puppy love I can get. I am open and flexible to many different situations so special requests are welcome. Your dog will get plenty of attention while I am around! I am currently working part time and would love to spend my free time with pups. Available most weekends and weekdays and am usually able to check on pets during the day. I am currently renting an apartment on a farm that doesn't allow other dogs, but, I have a vehicle and flexible schedule to come to the pet most times of day. Happy to take the dog on walks and/or adventures or just let them out and give them some attention.

“Logan was great! Gave updates daily on the dogs and left our house tidy and clean. Our dogs were well cared for and we would love to have her watch them again!”


About: Have a special heart for a dogs! We get along very well and look forward to having fun with every single one. Super excited to meet new dogs and create new relationships. Its fits however it needs, I do basketball training and etc but I can always work around that. Any day of the week works. ! Take lots of care, them being happy or not really means a lot to me so I want to make the best environment possible for every dog to be themselves and have fun.
