“Ruth was wonderful! She took great care of our three fur-babies! The animals loved her- she fed, played, and loved them like they were hers. Ruth texted when she was concerned with anything and sent daily pictures- capturing some of the best pics of our babies :). We will totally use her again for any trip we have coming up— even if it is overnight.”
About: I have taken care of so many animals in my life. I’ve always rescued animals and we have kept them. When I got married, my mom took them and now I have one sweet cat Storey! All animals have my heart! I have dog / cat sit multiple times. I just recently left my full-time job as a infant teacher. I am six months pregnant and just needed a little stress removed from my life so I am available at all times! I will follow and respect all rules that they have. I am a rule follower! I care for pets would love just like I would a human honestly!
About: I have owned and taken care of both young and old dogs and cats most of my life. I seem to understand animals even better than humans in most cases, with animals being one of the best sources of stress relief for me. While not certified, I also trained the last few dogs that I owned, teaching both spoken and hand gesture commands. I will only be working part- time during sitting, working with online coaching clients and possibly making deliveries on Doordash during the day. In the evenings (6- 9p.m.) Monday through Friday, I do martial arts training at a dojo in Concord. I usually prefer sitting for clients with a fenced in yard for both letting the dog outside for bathroom breaks and also for play time such as throwing a ball, as well as having indoor play time in between working on my online coaching and delivery duties.

On Sundays I have church so I won’t be able to pupsit. On Saturday I’m free most of the day and the weekdays. I am also a part time babysitter! I make sure the Dog is well fed. I play with them like play toss and tug-a-war. I make sure to walk them as needed and I show my animals lots of love and care!
“Suzanne was great! My dogs loved her and appreciated her going in the yard to play with them. My three dogs can be a handful. One of my dogs was on pumpkin and rice mixed in with his food due to some stomach issues and she made sure he got everything he needed to feel better. I will be using her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, and with seven years of experience, I understand the importance of providing loving, reliable care. As a graduate with a degree in veterinary health science (pre-vet), I bring both experience and knowledge to pet sitting. My background in veterinary health science means I can provide attentive care for pets of all ages, including puppies and seniors. I have experience administering medications, monitoring for health concerns, and ensuring pets stay happy and comfortable. Whether it’s a playful pup or a senior pet needing extra attention, I provide compassionate and knowledgeable care. I will be starting Veterinary school in August, so will not be able to provide continued coverage however, I am not currently in school or working. So my times are pretty open. In my client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their usual routine. I ensure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise, and enrichment through playtime and companionship. If needed, I can administer medications and monitor for any health concerns. I also keep the home clean and secure while caring for the pet, creating a stress-free experience for both the pet and their owner. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care so pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away.
About: I have had and taken care of dogs for years. We have done quite a bit of pet sitting for family dogs over time. 🚗 I love dogs and they respond very well to me. This is been a long time dream to be able to host dogs in my home. I am a semi-retired Notary Signing Agent for the state of NC, so I am able to pick and choose the contracts. This allows me to make the Daycare and Boarding a priority. . ! Having other dogs playing with our now “Big Guy”, just helps him to be more social and keeps him very active as well. I have a nice fenced in yard for play, and a well laid out home for comfort. I also have extensive knowledge in taking care of dogs in a very safe and secure manner.
About: I managed an upscale Dog and Cat boarding for over eight years. I have experience grooming, training, administering medication/shots, obedience training, playtime, walks, feeding, scooping poop, etc. I’ve been a dog owner of many different breeds for over 35 years. My husband and I own a DOG FRIENDLY Airbnb in Wisconsin. You know I am obsessed with my dogs and other people’s dogs because when you look at my photos on my phone it’s all dog pictures. love all dog breeds and enjoy spending quality time with dogs. Dogs are my soulmates. I am retired and my schedule is very flexible. I am available to stop by for daily walking, playtime, feeding, cuddles, administering medication, and much more. I enjoy long walks, cuddling dogs, play-time, and making your dog feel loved. Safety is my priority with the care of your dog. I will care for your dog as I would care for my own dogs- love, caring and special bonding.
About: Hi there; Thanks for stopping by! I love all breeds, sizes, and ages. Dogs, cats, and any other critters will be well cared for! Your babies will be in their own usual environment. So much less stressful on them. I work remotely, so I will be working while they are in their normal routine. (All I need is Wi-fi). And of course, lots of loving and attention will be given to them! If they sleep with you, they will sleep with me. And whatever routine you have them on, I will do the same. Drop me a line! We would love to meet you and your fur-baby(ies)! Please plan on a 2 night minimum stay :) And at least 3 day notice. Warmly, Lee I work remotely, so your baby/babies will have plenty of attention! Not to mention, they will be in their normal home and environment. They will love you for that! The bottom line is that I will keep them on the same routine you have them on. I just need to know what that is.
About: I am a mother and it is obvious in the way I care for dogs it comes naturally and doesn't feel like work. Also, I am friendly, upbeat, and enjoy spending time with dogs. Currently, I am a bar captain for a Broadway theater. So my availability is mostly in the afternoons, and late nights. Over my lifetime, I have had many dogs. All were rescued dogs who suffered from tremendous abuse. With that lasting trauma, trust and behavioral issues are common and for which I have the patience for. In addition to my personal experiences with dogs coming from special circumstances, most of my dogs have been medium to large breeds, and many of those were scent hounds. Which means you have to indulge some curiosities, all while staying mindful of safety. Therefore I would be happy taking your dogs on indulgent walks led by their noses and helping you take great care of your dogs would be my pleasure.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and have been caring for all different kinds since I was 13. My family has relied on me for years to walk, feed and bathe our pets! I am currently working at an animal hospital as a kennel technician while also in school to become a veterinarian technician. While my schedule may seem full I typically do have much free time that I would love to fill with your pets! Considering all of my experience and knowledge with animals I am confident that I am able to handle many different scenarios and situations correctly and safely. Your pets will definitely be in good hands!!
About: I've been around and cared for pets for over 15 years so I have lots of experience. I’m very playful and nurturing so they will have plenty of love and attention even when away from you. I work in fundraising in elementary and middle schools, so I am on a teacher’s schedule. However, that means I have full availability during the summer to take care of as many fur babies as needed! I have a large back yard so they have room to run. I also have a little dog who loves company so your baby won’t ever feel alone.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Salisbury stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Salisbury choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter 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.

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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Salisbury with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 sitter.
