About: I’m an experienced and dependable animal lover who used to pet sit pretty consistently and have gained a lot of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I’m especially comfortable caring for senior dogs and puppies, with experience providing the patience, attention, and individualized care they need. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. My schedule is often flexible and can accommodate short-notice requests when needed. I truly love animals and treat every pet as if they were my own, so you can feel confident knowing your pets will be in caring and capable hands. 🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week and on weekends. I can often accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and bedtime visits, as well as short-notice requests when needed. My goal is to work around your pet’s routine to provide consistent care and keep them comfortable while you’re away. I currently provide care in my clients’ homes through dog walking and drop-in visits. I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routines, respecting any instructions provided, and creating a calm, safe environment while you’re away. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, whether that means extra patience with puppies and senior dogs or giving shy pets time to warm up. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, with safety, trust, and reliable care being my top priorities.
“Audrey was amazing! Quick to respond to messages, very attentive to directions, so kind and thoughtful throughout. They sent so many cute photos of our pet each day and was just overall a blessing to work with. We were not worried at all leaving Ponyo under their care and would not hesitate to book them again.”
“Alex checked in on my two cats, Luna and Gizmo while we were away for a week. She did a great job and sent pictures and updates every day. Luna is very skittish, but she slowly came out of her shell for Alex throughout the week which is awesome.”
About: I have taken care of friends and neighbors dogs starting 20 years ago. We had dogs as I was growing up. I can provide play and enrichment for the energetic ones and laptime for the low-key ones. If they need meds or a special diet, I can make sure they stay on schedule and on plan. They will be safe and cared for while you are away. I work remotely with a pretty flexible daily schedule. Pet visits are scheduled within my day. While I am with your Pet they will have my full attention. Caring for your pet in your home is a big responsibility and I take it seriously, but it is also where your pet is most secure and comfortable. It is where their bed and their toys are and where they expect you to return. Keeping them safe and happy is my biggest priority.
“Bethany was excellent. One of our babies (2 1/2 year old cat) did not adapt well to us being gone, but Bethany went above and beyond to make sure she was eating, had socialization, and time to play. She even went ahead and dropped in for an extra visit a couple of times when Tonks wouldn’t eat in the morning. She also kept us updated frequently and sent a bunch of pictures. I would highly recommend Bethany for all your pet sitting needs!”
“She was awesome! Booked her last minute after our pet sitter unexpectedly canceled during our vacation. She took great care of our animals and sent cute pictures!”
About: I’ve taken care and owned many types of animals over the past 30 years. I’ve had a German Shepherd and a dachshund that passed several years ago due to old age. Currently, we have 7 cats we have rescued, vetted and are currently living their best, spoiled life. I am available mostly all day for care for your pet(s). I am now a stay at home mother, and would love to help others with their furbabies. I am available for drop in care including walks, feeding, medication administration, and almost anything a client may need. I am comfortable with all types of pets, and tend to have them get attached to me pretty quickly.
About: Hi! I’m Summer, a stay-at-home mom with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I understand that every dog is different, so I focus on providing personalized care that fits their needs and routine. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly, with a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time. On warmer days, dogs can enjoy supervised play and even cool off in a doggy pool, which many pups love. Because I’m home most of the day, your dog will receive consistent attention, supervision, and care. Whether your dog is active or more laid-back, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and part of the family. I also provide regular photo and update check-ins so you can feel confident your dog is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I’d love to set up a meet and greet to see if we’re a good fit! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I’m a stay-at-home mom and home most of the day. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I structure my day around maintaining a calm, predictable environment, so dogs can feel comfortable and settle in easily. Outdoor time, play, and rest are balanced based on each dog’s needs and energy level. Your pet will not be left alone for long periods and will be part of our daily routine. I provide a safe, calm, and supervised environment with a fully fenced-in yard for secure outdoor time. I follow each dog’s routine closely, monitor behavior, and prioritize a low-stress, structured setting. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority, and I provide regular updates for peace of mind.
“Absolutely GREATEST! So sweet, so thoughtful and thorough! Felt so comfortable with LaJuan! My kitty is so scared but became BEST friends ❤️ thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making us feel that our babies were safe in your care. Will book again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve grew up with cats and dogs in my household. Volunteered with the humane society between 11-16 years old. Worked at the Animal Hospital from 18-23 years of age. So I have a lot of experience with animals I love all animals. My cats are considered family so I will treat your babies the same. I have experience with feeding, walking, baby-sitting, trimming nails, caring for, playing, and grooming/bathing family, friends, and co-workers animals. I work full time Monday thru Friday but my hours are very flexible. My weekends are completely free I don’t work the weekends at all. I do have an animal gate. But I can accommodate you in anyway you need. Just communicate what you need and we can figure it out.
“Courtney is amazing!!! She made me feel so comfortable when I first met her, I just *knew* she was going to take great care of our cats while we were away, and she did!!! She spent quality time with them and always made sure they were fed and watered. The extra pics while I was away was also so reassuring. Highly recommend her!!! Thank you!!!”

✨ 10/10 recommend Payton! ✨ She is amazing with animals and truly loves what she does. My wild, high-energy boys adore her, and she handles them with patience, care, and lots of love. Payton is dependable, communicative, and treats your pets like family. Having her watch your dogs feels like having a trusted friend come over to spoil them while you’re away. I can’t recommend her enough!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Statesville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Statesville 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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Statesville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. 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.
