About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 8 for neighbors and friends. I live on a farm and have cared for prettt much any animal you can think of. I am very experienced and genuinely love animals and caring for them. I’m always happy to play or just snuggle! I am a college student with a lot of random free time! I am home for the summer and working part-time looking for some extra work. I LOVE animals and would spend every second with them if I could! I have 3 dogs at home, and I am used to giving commands and getting dogs to listen. I give lots of attention and play time, but also love giving pets and cuddles.
About: I have been surrounded by pets - dogs, cats, horses, cows, birds, reptiles, and everything in between - my entire life! I joined 4H when I was 6 years old as a “clover bud” and have spent the past 10 years learning to care for and train horses, dogs, and goats. Outside of my own furry family, I have assisted my mother with her horse training and pet sitting business, and also started caring for my own homes & farms as soon as I could drive! I work part-time, I am available all day Mondays through Wednesdays, and until 3pm Thursdays to Sundays. My schedule is pretty flexible, and can be available after work if needed. For the safety of your pets and our own dogs and other small pets, we do not currently offer any at home services. Hoping to in the future!
About: I've had 4 dogs in total. I got 3 right now, I love when it comes to taking care of them like brushing or giving them their supplements. All my dogs have different personalities, I would love to meet yours. I work almost full time, but I would love to spend time with pets on my free time. I am available 5 days a week maybe some weekends too. I have a fenced yard and 3 dogs who love meeting other dogs. All my dogs are fixed so no worry and they get fed 2 big meals. Inside the house it is small but cozy enough for the dog.
About: I started working with animals about 2 1/2 years ago for a friend and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I've had dogs my entire life. I currently have a German shepherd mix and 2 cats. My schedule recently is super flexible, so I am able to work around many specific hours. The only times I would most like to keep open is weekends. I have dog sat in others homes many times. I take the dog on walks, potty, play time, and if wanted cuddle time! I also clean up any mess made by myself or the dog and do cleaning when I see needed. I’m very good at keeping on schedule with pets so whatever needs they have I can fulfill that!
“My boy, Merlin just LOVES Katie! She is very responsible and sweet, and takes him on fun adventures to the park, where they have nice walks and play fetch. I highly recommend Katie!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11yo. I’ve cared for Australian Shepherds, Poodles, Rat Terriers, Cairn Terriers, Papillions, Irish Wolfhounds and more. I have four dogs now: German Shepherd Mix, German Shorthaired Pointer, and two Pembroke Corgis. I’m familiar with small and large dogs. I’m non-judgmental and understanding if your baby has separation-anxiety. I’m currently looking for work so am completely open to do drop-ins during the day, walks, and more. I can also watch your dog at your place or mine! I have a fully-fenced in yard and four dogs who would love a playmate. I have two kennels, and can kennel your dog if need be. I also offer baths depending on length of stay.
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. I currently have two cats. I love pets of all kinds, and I’d be glad to take care of yours when you need! I currently only work part time, so my schedule is pretty open. I wanted to fill my time with something fun and rewarding! I’d love to watch your pets! I just make sure to be attentive and follow any instructions clearly! I would never want someone to take advantage of my house or pet. I
About: With growing up around animals my whole life, pet sitting is nothing new to me. I have been provided the opportunity to pet sit for families, friends, and neighbors my whole life. I provide my own transportation, that allows me the opportunity to feed, walk, and play with your dogs. 😊 I’m a full time pet sitter, so I devote my time working and playing with your fur babies. I am available to do stop bys, pick up and drop offs, and I can do in home sitting and overnight, since pet sitting is my full time job. I have a fenced in yard, that provides your fur babies the option to run around and play. We have around 2 acres of land, so plenty of room for them to play and potty. If I am at your house, I will keep your pets safe by having them on a leash, and watching them outside. I can crate your pets at nighttime, so it eliminates them getting out and escaping.
About: With 10+ years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I provide compassionate, reliable, and personalized care for your furry family members. I may have more energy than them! I do this for fun, not for money. I lost my boy least year and I'm not quite ready for my own again, so taking care of others helps fill the void. <3 My days off are Monday, Tuesday, and Saturday. Sometimes one additional day during the week. I'm free all day and night on those days off, but depending on the time, may be able to watch on other days as well. Weekdays I'm still pretty free, just keep in mind my work schedule. I'll do what's needed and more! Walks? Playtime? Feeding? Bathroom? I do this mostly for fun! I'm not quite ready to own my own again but maybe caring for other dogs will help me heal!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and have provided pet sitting services for family and friends since 2020. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand the importance of maintaining routines, recognizing behavioral cues, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for every dog. I currently care for my own dog, Tessa, and have experience with dogs of varying ages, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. My hands-on experience includes caring for large and independent breeds such as German Shepherd/Akita mixes and Shiba Inus. Through regular pet sitting, I’ve become comfortable managing multi-dog households, administering feeding schedules, reinforcing established training routines, and providing enrichment through play, walks, and positive interactions. I’ve also lived with multiple dogs throughout college, giving me extensive experience adapting to different personalities, obedience levels, and exercise needs. I have experience supporting basic training, including house training, crate training, leash manners, and positive reinforcement techniques. Whether your dog is highly active, prefers a slower pace, or needs consistency with an existing routine, I strive to provide dependable care that helps pets feel secure while you’re away. Pet care is a regular part of my daily life. As a lifelong dog owner and experienced pet sitter, I’m used to planning my routine around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m currently a student in a Medical Laboratory Technician (MLT) program, which has strengthened my time management skills and attention to detail. I have clinical rotations on Mondays and Tuesdays and classes on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 8–10 a.m., so I’m generally available most afternoons, evenings, Fridays, and many weekends with advance notice. I only accept bookings that fit comfortably within my schedule to ensure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. In my clients’ homes, I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, crate routines, and any training cues or household rules. Safety is always my top priority. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and collars before going outside and make sure pets are supervised during playtime and interactions with other animals. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take time to build trust at their pace—whether they need extra playtime, a calm environment, or a little extra patience. As an MLT student, I’m detail-oriented, dependable, and committed to providing regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are safe and well cared for while they’re away.
About: I’ve been experienced with dogs/animals for over 10 years. I’m currently a dog trainer that trains beginner/advanced on leash and off leash obedience. I have a passion for dogs and want to make sure they have the best experience while their owners are away! I have 3 dogs of my own that I compete with in dock diving and waterfowl hunt tests. I’m a super active dog owner that loves to get outdoors! While taking care of your pup they would be treated like my own. I want to give pet parents the piece of mind that their pup is happy and well cared for! I’m very open with communication to make sure everything goes smoothly while in my care. I have my own schedule with being a dog trainer. I dedicate most of my time to dogs/animals. This is my full time job and can always be available. I am super hyper vigilant when it comes to pet safety. Always having a long line attached to your pups if we’re ever on a trail walk. Making sure I have an extra leash. Always going the next step to make sure the dogs are safe.
About: I come from a farming background, and have cared for dogs and cats in a variety of environments. I worked as a livestock manager for farming operations a total of 5+ years, besides having owned and raised many of my own pets since I was a kid. I have often volunteered to pet sit for friends and relatives, including both dogs and cats. I can handle all basic daily needs, feeding, walking, monitoring, and even administer medications if required. I am on a seasonal break for the holidays, and looking to supplement my income. I can visit daily within a reasonable distance, or stay overnights when required. Aside from some dates I will block out around Christmas, I have open availability! I will come to you for pet care. Cats will be fed according to their schedule, litter cleaned daily. Dogs will be walked at or near feeding times, and let out for potty breaks as needed throughout the day. Lots of love given at all times! If there are other medical needs I will need details of their care when setting up an appointment.

About: I’ve taken care of everything from dogs, to cats, and everything in between!! I’m experienced with medications and many more things. Got a strange request? I’m there for ya! I am free every night and happy to travel wherever needed!! I love to spend some nice quality time with your animal!! I’m happy to sit and knit or go on as many walks as needed! I love to meet new people and of course their fur babies!! I am happy to provide a safe space for each animal to live and play!!
About: I have been taking care of dogs, in my household and for family friends. About ten years ago I started watching dogs and cats in high school for people who used the same vets office as I did. I have done overnight stays, walks, drop ins, and taken them to veterinary appointments. I have a senior dog at home and have taken him through puppy, intermediate and advanced training. As I mentioned, he is in his senior years so I spend a large majority of my time taking him for short walks in the cooler mornings and making sure he has the best senior years possible. :) I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so pet care is the majority of my daily and weekly routine. Outside play and walking are how I spend my mornings, and when it starts to heat up I focus on preparing treats and that stimulate the pets minds and keep them entertained without over heating. In the cooler weather if the dogs like to be outside we take longer walks or soak in the sun like my senior pup. Depending on the clients home, I am fine with crating them to be safe and make sure they are not getting into things in between drop ins. I have extensive leash training for dogs so walking will not be an issue. If there is a fenced yard I am happy to play games with them and run around.
About: When I’m dog sitting your best friends, they will receive daily Trips to the park, Constant Attention, Affection, Love, as well as a safe environment to be in. Dogs are my passion and a ginormous part of my life. I will go above and beyond for your four-legged friend 💪🏽 after all…. It’s what they deserve for their undying loyalty. I’m currently a student who studies virtually from home. I have open availability throughout the entire week. Being a student allows me to have a lot of free time. Your dog will be exercised, loved, and be safe at all times with me. I look forward to taking care of your best friend I have a dog myself who’s an absolute sweetheart. His daily schedule is eating supplements, vitamins, and his food once in the morning and once at night. He takes 1-2 hour daily trips to the Dog Park, and well as receiving constant affection and love. Your dog will receive the exact same kind of treatment as my own.
About: My name is Hannah, but I go by Mikki. I have had pets since I was 15 years old and they have ranged from cats, dogs, and the exotic! I have a serious love for all the different types of fur-babies and am a proud pet parent myself! I’m the purrfect fit if you love someone enthusiastic about animals and their care, someone who is strict with rules and restrictions, and someone who is flexible! I have worked in a pet boarding type facility in the past and carry much experience wrangling dogs of all sizes and in all group sizes, with all different types of personalities. I also have a dog and cat myself. My daily schedule involves me waking up and letting my dog out while preparing their breakfast. After they eat, we get some snuggles in until it’s time to go potty. Later on, it time for dinner and then a nightly walk 30 minutes to an hour after dinner has been served. That ends our adventure for the day! For Drop-Ins: I stop by for feedings and enrichment for between 30 minutes to an hour. I make sure they care squared away and everything is locked up before I leave. For Walks: It’s simple … we just go for walks. 30 minutes to an hour or whatever set path and time per appointment. For House-Sitting: I set a time for me to come over. I stay for the duration of the appointment set and bring my own necessities so that I don’t have to leave the premises. I stay within your home, where your babies are most comfortable, and provide them with company and a set schedule. Before I confirm a booking, I will ALWAYS set up a meet-and-greet. I need to be able to sit down with the fur-babies and parents so we can get a good view of the vibes and to see if I would be a good fit. These meet-and-greets are NOT OPTIONAL and refusal will result in a CANCELED BOOKING! Sitting should be a comfortable experience for pet, pet parent, and sitter. Checking the vibes and getting details is critical for success.
“Very gentle and patient with my dog. I was worried about using this app since a complete stranger would be walking my dog. Fortunately, Ayla helps me feel assured that my baby is in great care.”

About: Hello! As a fellow animal lover, I have 4 pets, worked at two dog daycares and volunteer at a sanctuary farm! I’ve taken care of all animal ages and am well-versed in those with special care. Please send any and all questions! I am completely free from my full-time job on the weekends. I also have Tuesdays available for those spontaneous trips or emergencies! I may have an appointment scheduled on a Tuesday or volunteering Saturday morning, but I’m super flexible. It can always subject to change. Safety and love are the most important to me. I also understand routine is to be kept up with. I’ll be sure to treat and love them as my own!
About: Growing up we always kept animals in the house, I’ve had at least one pet since I was 6 years old, cats, dogs, fish, frogs, I love them all!! My #1 concern is your pets safety, and their happiness! I’m a very early riser, usually up at about 5-6am every morning, so I can be available for super early walks/potty breaks. I have a very flexible work from home schedule and can leave at any point so I can work around your schedule! I have a hands free leash that I always bring with me. I can use that primarily, or both leashes. Safety is priority! No one expects accidents to happen but I like to be as prepared as possible.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Statesville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Statesville.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Statesville. On Rover:
- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
