“Lilac Rain was absolutely amazing with my two cats! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and I loved all the pictures and updates she sent during each drop-in. You could really tell how much care, positive energy, and attention she gave them. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. I would absolutely recommend Lilac Rain and will definitely book with her again!!”
“Once again, wonderful to work with. She sent me so many pictures and videos, it was clear my kitty had a blast. Booked a home stay as I didn't want him alone. He was actually crying and looking around when we got home, I think he was looking for Caitlin! Thank you for taking such good care of my boy!”
About: I’ve had pets growing up and have loved them. I don’t have any special skills other than just general care like walks, playing, and instructed care when it comes to dogs. I’m well versed in cat care. I’m flexible outside of my classes and on campus working schedule. Some days I have enough time in between classes and work to do quick drop ins and is usually free afterwards as well. I’m 100% free on weekends. I love cats and I’m not afraid to get bit and scratched up either for the love of the game or for care. I can clean litter boxes and other spaces required. I usually let cats do their own thing because that’s what they do best. I see them as sweet little babies who can do no wrong even when they do.
“Brittney was awesome with our cat and beardie! She was super attentive and communicative and spent extra time taking care of our girls. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our future trips!”
About: I’ve had cats and a previous dog since childhood. I have love for all animals, but cats have won my heart. I love walking dogs and giving them time to run around and get their energy out. I have previously volunteered at Brother Wolf for dog walking and really enjoyed it! I’m currently filling my client caseload so I have more flexibility on the days listed here to offer help and support to your fur baby I’m very attentive to my pets needs, safety, and health. I offer the same to other dogs and cats I have spent time with for friends and family
“Gabrielle is absolutely fantastic. She was on time, provided detailed check ins and photos, went out of her way to be extra attentive to our fur baby! Over all we were extremely happy with the level of care provided! Highly recommend booking with her.”
About: I’ve cared for a wide range of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I truly love them all. I’m the sitter who can keep up with high-energy pups, take your dog on long “hot girl walks,” and make sure they feel entertained, safe, and loved the whole time. I treat every pet like my own and I’m extremely reliable, attentive, and communicative. You can expect frequent updates and tons of cute photos so you always know how your fur baby is doing. I currently work part-time with flexible, rotating hours, which gives me plenty of availability for pet sitting and dog walking. I love taking both morning and nighttime walks, so exercise timing is never an issue. I’m very open to working around your pet’s routine, and I’m always happy to discuss what you need to make sure your dog or cat gets consistent, loving care. When I’m in your home, my top priorities are safety, respect, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I follow all instructions carefully—feeding schedules, medication, crate time, walking routes, and any house rules you set. I always make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure, and I double-check everything before leaving. I keep your pet comfortable by sticking to what they know: their space, their toys, their habits. I offer plenty of love, attention, and play, and I’m very communicative so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. You can expect regular photo updates, honest check-ins, and the peace of mind that your home and your pet are being treated with the same care I’d give my own.
“Having just recently moved to the area, we didn’t have a local friend to take care of our cat, Steve, and we were initially a bit nervous about using someone we didn’t know. However, Susan was FANTASTIC! She came to meet us and our cat before our trip, which put us totally at ease since she was so friendly and kind to Steve and didn’t bat an eye at his feeding instructions. She showed up on time each day and sent us a nice visit recap and some funny action pictures of her playing with him. Would 100% recommend her to anyone.”
About: With 2 cattle dogs of my own, my love for animals has been consistent throughout my life. My day revolves around making my pups happy and comfortable, I would ensure that same standard to your furry friends. Special meals, walks, fetch, enrichment, and more, catering to your pal is my mission. I am a personal trainer and currently only work online, the only time I am out of the house is for any grocery runs or a workout of my own. I am constantly around for any animals needs as I have 2 very spoiled and needy dogs, and 2 hungry cats of my own. We live in a home in fletcher on 4 acres and a pond with an unfenced yard. Cats have a designated room with 2 litter boxes, lots of toys and food. Doggy day care includes fetch and or walks around the hilly neighborhood, maybe a dip in the pond! Dogs who are not off-leash trained will be on leash any time out doors.
“I highly recommend Ana! I’m new to the area and needed someone I could trust to care for my shy cat, Littles, while I was out of state for nine days. He was still adjusting to our recent move and had been stressed by water intrusion issues and all the maintenance visits that followed. Ana was quick to respond, easy to communicate with, and set up a meet-and-greet right away. Littles spent most of that first visit hiding behind the couch, but she was patient and determined to win him over. She sent daily photos and updates, and even checked my apartment for water leaks during heavy rain, which gave me so much peace of mind. Within a few days, Littles was curled up in Ana’s lap enjoying all the pets. When I got home, he was relaxed, eating well, and clearly had been well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking Ana again for my September trip and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, dependable pet sitter.”
About: Because I’m a very caring person and very gentle with animals and anything living including plants. I’m a very positive human being. Thank you very much I’m available every day and most times. I can spend the night if needed. I’m good with all breeds and sizes and ages. Thank u I spend lots of time with the animals I pet sit for and I give them lots of love and attention and things they need
“Kyle was fantastic! I had a good feeling as soon as I felt his firm handshake. He is very caring, attentive and a great communicator, clear and timely. Kyle was kind and understanding about my anxiety leaving my cat, and he made sure to be in touch and send lots of photos and updates. A truly wonderful pet-sitter!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I had a dachshund and a rottweiler (quite the duo!), and later on I had a bull terrier of my own that I absolutely adored. I also lived with a golden retriever, so I’ve had the joy of caring for all kinds of personalities and energy levels. For the past 10 years, I’ve been the go-to dog sitter and walker for friends and family. They trust me because they know their pups will get more than just the basics, they’ll get love, attention, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for like they’re my own. Right now I have full-time availability, which means your pet will get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Since I’m not balancing another job, I can easily work around your pet’s routine, whether that’s regular walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. In my home, pets have plenty of space to feel comfortable — I live alone in a 3-bedroom house, so there’s lots of room for them to play, explore, or just relax. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a very walkable neighborhood, so I make sure they get plenty of walks and outdoor time. I’m also happy to care for pets in their own home if that’s where they feel most comfortable. Whether at my place or yours, I always make sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need.
About: I have 4 years of kennel and veterinary experience. I have experience with old and young dogs and administering medications/caring for elderly animals with extra needs. I also have experience with aggressive and skittish dogs and cats from many years of volunteering at the Humane Society. I have groomed dogs of varying size while working at the kennel and can handle different breeds coats and needs. I have 3 Siberian Huskies of my own. I take them for an hour walk everyday and I am more than happy to include your pet in that routine. If they prefer to go on walks by themselves I can make time for that as well. I am available at any time of the day because I work from home. I am happy for them to stay in my home or I can come to you if your dog is more comfortable in their own environment. I have a fenced in backyard at my house and my dogs love to play with new friends. They always do a good job of making other dogs feel included and welcome. Luckily they are not territorial in any way. My dogs have free rein of the house. I do not crate my pets because they are luckily respectful of the house when I am not there. I have a medium sized crate from when they were puppies, but if you need your dog crated and they are a large dog you may have to provide your own! I monitor my dogs all day, if I do leave them it is to go grocery shopping or for a quick workout, I will never leave your dog for more than 2 hours. I am also very happy to update you throughout the day with pictures and videos so you can see how your baby is doing:)

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Swannanoa
Another great experience with Chris! We've had him care for Vittles several times now, and we continue to appreciate his excellent communication, reliability, and the wonderful care he provides. Vittles is always happy and relaxed when we return, which says it all. We also really appreciated Chris's flexibility when our camping plans changed unexpectedly and we had to adjust our booking at the last minute. We highly recommend Chris!
Kyle was fantastic! I had a good feeling as soon as I felt his firm handshake. He is very caring, attentive and a great communicator, clear and timely. Kyle was kind and understanding about my anxiety leaving my cat, and he made sure to be in touch and send lots of photos and updates. A truly wonderful pet-sitter!

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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.
