“We were nervous to leave our fur babies when we went on vacation, but Nicole did a fantastic job, even with our half-feral new cat. They became besties in a matter of 2 days! We will be going to Nicole for any future cat sitting.”

“Communicative, professional, and took great care of my crew… with a last minute and late night booking! I look forward to the peace of mind having Peyton house sit while we’re out of the country for 3 weeks coming up as well!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities and truly treat every dog like my own. I’m especially comfortable with puppies, high-energy dogs, and those that need structure or boundaries—I’m currently raising a puppy myself, so I understand training, routines, and behavior firsthand. What sets me apart is the environment and attention I provide. I have plenty of space for dogs to safely explore, get their energy out, and decompress—without the chaos of a crowded kennel. I focus on structured care, including consistent feeding schedules, potty routines, supervised play, and calm downtime so your dog feels secure and balanced. I’m attentive, patient, and very in tune with behavior, whether that’s managing puppy nipping, reinforcing good habits, or helping dogs feel comfortable in a new environment. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. I work a consistent schedule and am able to provide reliable, attentive care every day. Dogs in my care are not left alone for long periods, and I make sure they get regular potty breaks, playtime, and structured routines throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks, with flexibility for weekends and extended stays. My goal is to keep your dog’s routine as close to home as possible so they feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment with plenty of space for supervised outdoor time and exercise. Because I have a large private property, dogs have room to explore while always being closely monitored. I am experienced with different temperaments, including puppies and high-energy dogs, and I focus on maintaining good behavior, routines, and boundaries during their stay. Dogs are never left unsupervised outside, and I can crate if requested or follow your dog’s normal home routine. I take time to understand each dog’s needs, personality, and preferences so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I have over 4 years of experience working in veterinary medicine, including emergency care, which has given me strong knowledge in recognizing medical concerns, handling high stress situations, and safely administering medications. I’m comfortable caring for pets with special needs, including seniors and those requiring daily medications. In addition to my clinical experience, I’ve trained my own working line dog from 8 weeks old to adulthood, giving me hands on experience with puppy training, structure, and behavior management. I also currently have a young puppy, so I understand the patience and consistency needed for early training stages. This diverse background has made me confident handling animals of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. What sets me apart is my ability to combine professional veterinary knowledge with real world training experience, allowing me to provide safe, attentive, and reliable care for every pet. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine since I’m a full-time online student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m able to be home throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins, and I can easily adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. Whether a pet requires frequent potty breaks, structured routines, or just extra attention, I’m able to provide consistent and reliable care. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets on their normal schedule to reduce stress, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also make sure to keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I provide a structured but relaxed environment with plenty of supervision, enrichment, and exercise. I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and comfort at all times, and I adjust care depending on age, energy level, and any special needs. With my background in veterinary medicine, I’m also able to monitor for any changes in behavior or health and respond appropriately if concerns arise.
“She was absolutely great and helped me out on relatively short notice when my normal sitter couldn’t make it. She sent lots of pictures and videos so I knew my boy was doing well! Highly recommend”


“Highly recommended! Could not have asked for better sitter. Justin took excellent care of both our dogs. Our dog Cas has special needs and can be a real handful for most people but not for Justin. Will definitely use him again!”


About: I have been around animals my whole life, loving them and caring for them. I started fostering dogs 7 years ago and love everyday. I enjoy being outdoors and walking mine and other dogs. I can teach some basic obedience skills about walking and behavior. You may even get some cute photographs of your dog while you're away :-) I enjoy going to different parks, and greenways or even going for a nice long hike! I currently work part time (in the morning) but have my afternoons open to dog walking! I have some weekends available as well to dog walk or drop in. If you don’t have a fenced yard your dog will always stay on leash. I always recommend microchipping pets & wearing collars with name tags to ensure safety.
“Kelsey did a great job taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She was very responsive when we updated her with tips and last minute concerns with our cats. She updated us with pictures and made sure each of our cats was doing well while we were away. We will definitely be trusting Kelsey to care for our pets in the future.”

About: I’m originally from Michigan, I love to travel and take adventures. Just graduated with a Bachelors In Science in Radiation Therapy and am looking for a break from studying for my ARRT boards.

About: I’m Lawrence and I love dogs. Pet sitting is so rewarding! I also love that I have the freedom to work at home, while caring for animals. You’ll love that I’m able to spend the entire day with your dog so I can get to know their personality and individual needs. Customers remark say I have calming energy that animals feed off and creates a great environment for their care. I pay the utmost attention to the owner’s wishes and perspective as well as the dog themselves. I treat and respect every stay as a unique experience and hope to connect with you to create a respectful and symbiotic relationship. I live in a cozy home in Norwalk with Gabby. Our neighborhood is dog-friendly and perfect for walking. The streets are calm and you can rest assured your dog is in safe hands when walking around my neighborhood. We have a great park across the street from my house which, with your permission, I’d love to take your pup to. I have a range of experience with all sizes, breeds, and personalities of pups. I grew up with Shepherds and Labs but have spent time with many dogs. My fiancé Gabby will be there as well to provide extra cuddles. My clients have fallen in love with her natural ability and calmness. She’s a great partner and your pup will be lucky to have us both in their care. When I’m not spending time with pups (or when I am), I enjoy relaxing with Gabby, developing video games and skateboarding.
“Audrey was wonderful sitter for our dog, Knox. We are so so grateful for how well she took care of him, especially at such late notice. She gave thorough and frequent updates and lots of pictures. I feel at ease planning future trips knowing Audrey is someone we could turn to to watch our pup. Thanks for everything!”

“Victoria and her husband are awesome! They took the last minute challenge head on to watch my dogs after I had two people cancel on me and it was greatly appreciated. I could tell from pictures that as the day visits progressed my dogs seemed to be getting more comfortable and calmer with them. They have a great dog loving energy. Thank you so much!”

“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.”

Statesville pet parents share their Rover experiences
✨ 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!

Bo is always great with my cat Bean. He is a rescue and can be bitey when stressed, but Bo is able to connect with him and form a bond that he desperately needs when I am away from home for a week or so at a time. Bean is a really social cat, compared to previous cats I've had, and Bo is great at listening to what Bean needs each visit and communicating how he is doing when I check in. Also really great at pictures! It's always great to be able to check in with the photos later when I am 5 hours ahead and missed a check in, to see a silly photo of my cat playing.
