“Melanie always takes such great care and concern for my fur baby while delivering excellent customer service. She is incredibly responsive and flexible when my work day takes unexpected twists and turns, causing delays in picking my fur baby up from day care. She is always so sweet, kind, and understanding. So glad I found her in the Charlotte area!”

“Enzo watched our seven month old puppy Pepino for daycare. This is our first time leaving him, so we were initially very nervous but after receiving pictures and updates we were so happy to see him having a blast. When we picked him up, he was totally worn out! It's clear he had a fantastic time. Pepino will definitely be back for more fun!”

Liz T.

“Mia has been nothing sort of amazing! I would not be able to take care of Peyton if it wasn't for her! She really loves your pup as much as you do! Thank you for everything you have done for me and Puppy Love!”

About: I have had a variety of different types of four-legged babies throughout my life from the beginning and can't imagine a world without them! I'm thrilled to be a part of the Rover community, and always appreciate the opportunity to care for yours! As a devoted lifelong pet owner myself, I understand the unique needs and joys that come with caring for animals of all ages, sizes and personalities! Whether your child needs lots of attention or is indifferent, takes medication like a treat or requires a trick, gets along well with others or not…as long as you share what they need to live their best life while you’re away I will make it happen! I'm currently not working and am doing Rover full time. While I may step out for an hour or two, I am home the majority of the day. I have a pug pup too and sometimes she comes with me on drop ins if you have a socialized pup who’s down for a play date! I live in an apartment and don't have a fenced in yard, but my community has plenty of green spaces and dog park for potty breaks and light walking. I have several repeat clients, some who I have never met in person. I understand it can be unsettling to leave your fur-child in the care of a complete stranger! When doing drop in/walking visits, I will respect your home, your privacy, and your pet(s).

“Christina was great with our puppy Jack. She took extra special care to keep him comfortable on the rainy day. Jack was taken care of and loved just like we would.”

Heather B.

“Marcus is an absolute gem! From the moment we booked, he was kind, communicative, and incredibly accommodating — even when our schedule changed last-minute. Our dog Ranger had the best day ever with him and came home happy, relaxed, and totally worn out in the best way. It was such a relief to find someone we could trust to watch our pup while we explored the city. We can’t recommend Marcus enough — he’s a dog whisperer and a total lifesaver!”

Andrea

“I am so happy I had Maui stay with Tawanda. My plans for Charlotte were last minute and I was scrambling to find a sitter. Tawanda was open and available. When I got there, she was very warm and welcoming. Maui found a new friend and he had a blast. He looked like he was at home! Tawanda went above and beyond to take care of MauI. Anytime that I am back in Charlotte, I will always go to Tawanda!”

Alayna A.

“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!”

Jessica T.

“Ellie was great! She was kind enough to watch my dog with relatively short notice and had her from early morning to late at night while I took a day trip. I’m excited to work with her again!”

About: Hi there! I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember—starting with my own pets, then helping family and friends, and eventually fostering cats/kittens and dogs/pupies for several years. I’m deeply experienced with all kinds of personalities—from playful puppies to shy rescues—and I know how to make animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, cuddle time, or special attention for nervous pets, I treat every animal like they’re my own. You can count on me for reliable, attentive, and compassionate care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just spending quiet time with animals, it’s second nature to me. I’ve fostered for years and regularly care for pets of family and friends, so my schedule is already built around making sure animals are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m used to adjusting my routine to meet each pet’s needs, whether that means early morning walks, medication schedules, or extra cuddle time. I work from home so that’s super helpful. I treat every pet like a little soul in my care—whether they’re staying with me or I’m in their space. In my home, I create a calm, cozy vibe with safe spaces, soft spots to rest, and plenty of love (plus playtime, if they’re into that!). When I’m in your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely so they feel grounded and secure. I move with their energy—whether that means zoomies, belly rubs, or quiet companionship.
