“We had a great experience using Rover, and Amanda was fantastic! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of our dog. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in good hands. We would absolutely book with Amanda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

“Daniella was an amazing sitter. Our cat is very shy and typically hides from new faces, so we were very shocked to see her cuddling with Daniella on day 2. Daniella was also very accommodating to any of the requests we made. Definitely recommend her services for anyone with pets in the area.”


“Alyssa was great with our cat squad! They were all instantly comfortable with her and she showed them all the love while we were away. We will definitely book with Alyssa again!”

“Peyton did a great job dropping off to feed and entertain my 2 cats while I was gone. My place was kept clean and he spent the full 30 minutes with them at each visit.”

“My little girl was taken care of and got to stretch her legs mid day! Definitely gave me so much peace of mind to have such a kind hearted person care for my best friend.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, including all throughout college, and have experience with everything from basic care to delivering medications to playtime to get out some energy! I trained two puppies myself and helped care for dogs through all life stages, including for my friends and family as well as my own. I have an extremely flexible schedule that allows me to break free for midday walk-breaks, medication schedules, and feeding times, and have the ability to stay overnight to ensure no lonely pets! While I can’t currently have pets in my own home, I do have a dog park, know the greenways and walking paths of the area, and can also take care of pets in the comfort of their own home! Whatever your pets routine and comfort level is, I can adhere to!
“Alicia is an amazing pet sitter. She took care of my three kittens including my senior cat that is sick and we couldn't be more grateful for all of her help! We have a few special requests for him that can be a lot to ask and she did them without any issues! We will most definitely keep booking with her. I 100% recommend her service”


“Lauryn is absolutely amazing!!!! And I think that’s an understatement!!! First of all, I found her on kind of short notice..and I am so incredibly grateful that she confirmed the booking right away! This was her first time taking care of Charlie and Cleo, and I can tell they fell in love with her (and vice versa) 🥹 we were gone for the longest time away from our babies (around 5 days!), but Lauryn took extra special care of them and was so patient. She was very communicative, and I absolutely loved the photos/videos she sent us! I would 1000% book Lauryn again - and highly, highly recommend her!”

“Grace was absolutely wonderful with my shy boy! He took to her immediately and really enjoyed having her company while I was out of town. Grace has the magic touch with cranky older cats! She also took great care to keep the space clean and tidy. I would absolutely recommend Grace and will definitely hire her again when we travel!”


About: I grew up loving and caring for dogs since my first pup, Madison, when I was 14. I’m the proud human to my current dog, Callie, who is a 4 year old cockapoo. I often watch my friend’s dogs and work from home so I’m always around and able to go on multiple walks a day. I work from home in west Charlotte so your pup won’t be left alone. I’m also able to take multiple walks a day :) I have a large, shaded, fenced-in yard with plenty of room to play. My neighborhood has sidewalks and a park nearby (currently being updated but reopening soon)

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I grew up in a home where we regularly rescued dogs, so I learned from a young age how to care for animals with patience, love, and responsibility. Taking care of our pets was always a priority, and I treat every dog as if they were part of my own family I work full time, but my schedule is very flexible in the mornings and evenings, which allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your dog. I’m able to provide walks, feeding, playtime, and attention before and after work to make sure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for. I’m committed to being reliable and making sure your dog’s routine and needs are fully met. When caring for dogs in their own home, I make sure to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention to keep them happy while you’re away. I also make sure the home stays clean and that your dog feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their familiar environment.

About: I'm Kaili and I’m looking for some wagging tails to fill my schedule! I'm a huge dog lover and always have been - with over 15 years experience I'm able to give specialty care to all dogs of varying breeds and personalities. Depending on you and your doggo’s preferences, we can go for long walks or take it easy and lounge in the grass. I'm available for walks, potty-breaks, excercise/play time and/or over night stays! I have experience with overly timid or anxious pups that require patience and gentle attention. As well as extensive care with senior dogs, who also require extra attention in their old age. I’d love to get to know you and your dog and help keep them company in anyway needed! I have a dog of my own and often care for my sister’s dog as well so I’m very well versed and have a schedule down pat. I can be home on the weekends for dog sitting and ample walks around the neighborhood. I have an unfenced grassy area outside my home and live in a neighborhood where I walk my own dog all the time. It’s pretty quiet and low traffic, but there’s also the greenway nearby for a longer / more stimulating environment.
“Stephen was great at taking care of our cat. Very communicative, consistent, and reliable. Would definitely ask for his help again! We had peace of mind while we were away for several days. Stephen gave detailed updates and pictures after each visit.”

“Rachel sent us pictures of every visit, which made being away so much easier! She was flexible when we needed to make schedule adjustments, and has excellent communication! Definitely will have her watch our pups again!!”

“I loved and appreciated Paige’s updates throughout her visits to my cats, and loved her energy when we first met. I know she gave my girls lots of attention and look forward to working with her again!”

“Due to my job she wasn’t able to meet my dogs prior and they were comfortable enough with her to go outside with her. (My older dog can be wary of new people sometimes)”

“Bailey is always a wonderful sitter to our cat Mama! She gives her love, treats and always sends us lots of pictures. Highly recommend booking for your pet services!”

Smallwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Haley was soo sweet to Carter! She came early, sent me photos from her visit, and even sent me a message before she left!! Carter was so happy and well taken care of when I got home from work. I would definitely trust her with any of my pets and hope to book her again soon!!

I could not have asked for a better person to watch my dogs. I have never had a person outside the family to look after them, nor have I given a person access to my home. I recommend Ruben 100% and will gladly call on him again. My dogs took to him on his first visit that assured me I made the best decision. Thank you so much Ruben, it meant so much to me that you made my dogs and I very comfortable.
We had a great experience using Rover, and Amanda was fantastic! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of our dog. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in good hands. We would absolutely book with Amanda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

Grace went above and beyond in caring for our (sometimes spicy) senior kitty, Hope. She came twice a day, was totally on top of everything, and kindly helped clean up when our cats stomach was getting upset (happens when we’re away). She also really understood how to work with our testy girl, to give her space, and let her come to you. We’re very grateful to have found such kind sitter nearby!
