“Sydney was so kind and energetic great for pups who need to get energy out. We had a death in the family the night before & Sydney was kind enough to ask if there was anything else she could do multiple times, clearly a person who loves & cares for both people and animals.”
About: Active volunteer at the York County Humane Society Animal Shelter. Retired from corporate life focused on doing what I love. My pets have always been members of the family. 🐾 30 Years of Loving Dogs & Cats — Your Pets Are Family! I provide loving, dependable, and personalized pet sitting so you can feel confident they’re in caring hands while you’re away. I keep my calendar up to date and am retired from full-time work. Available for boarding and overnight stays. Available for 3 visits per day I have a yard and full basement dedicated to pet sitting and can crate a dog if requested. I will request meet and greet along with vet information and instructions ahead of time.
About: My Dad loved animals and we had many growing up. While I know cats best, I also understand pups, lizards, fish and rodents/small animals and all animals are treated with integrity, love and affection!. I’m currently working part time and will have plenty of availability for dog walking and sitting. Longer jobs can be discussed before committing to any service! Cleaning litter boxes, mealtimes, medicine administration, grooming and activities. Each pet has their preferences, and I would like learn them! Last minute check ins available!
“Bret is reliable and great at communicating after every encounter. He even asks about my babies to see how they’re doing throughout the week. It is evident he has plenty of experience with pets and provides quality care as if they were his babies too. Highly recommend.”
About: I have had a passion for animals since I was very young. I have been working with dogs since I was 10 years old, doing things from basic pet care to behavioral training. I wanted to be a dog trainer since that time, so I have worked my whole life to have a deep understanding of these animals. In high school I was involved in a veterinary science program allowing me to intern at a vet office and a horse stable during my time in school. I worked at a daycare and boarding facility for two years after, then went through an intense 6 month program in Statesville to become a Certified Master Dog Trainer under the school Highland Canine School for Dog Trainers. I Graduated 9th of my class with a 90 and above the entire program. At this school, I worked with Police Dogs, Service Dogs, Trailing and Detection, Competition Level Obedience, Tool training, Behavior Modification, and more. I am now a proud owner of my own Dog Training Business. I would love to help care for your animals and tend to any of their needs! Because of owning my own business, my hours can vary greatly. I have control over my schedule, it is mainly just first come first serve. The earlier I get in contact with about boarding dates or training sessions, the higher likelihood it is on my schedule. Some months I have lots of space available, so just contact me as soon as you can! I have a fenced in yard and we have repurposed our sunroom into a training and boarding room. We have one friendly older dog in our house who is well trained and well socialized. The kennel room is kept clean and tidy and I have extra bowl, enrichment toys, slow feeders, kong toys, etc. for all my clients to use. I try to involve exercise and enrichment every day. I also own a treadmill and often treadmill train dogs that need confidence building or an outlet. I also have a forest in my neighborhood that I take dogs on hikes through that is quite private. I own a 30 foot and 50 foot longline for those occasions.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to even hedgehogs, reptiles and squirrels! Being around animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra snuggles and attention, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will always care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind and give your pet a fun, comfortable experience every time we’re together 🐾 I’m currently studying for my license in cosmetology which allows me a lot of flexibility to care and meet your pets needs. Your pets needs are my top priority. I accomidate to whatever your pet wants to make them happy and feel loved, let me know what your pet prefers so I can best provide reliable consistent care.

About: I’ve been sitting via Rover for 3.5 years now and have loved caring for 30+ dogs! Coming from a family who has had 5 different dogs, I am accustomed to a variety of needs and age ranges. Dogs are integral to a family, so safety, gentleness and understanding are essential to me as I watch them 😊💗 I work remotely so my schedule is flexible. I am happy to care for your dog before work, during lunch, and after work. Please note, for house boarding, I am unavailable to sleep over, but am happy to drop in multiple times including early morning and into the evening. I take going on walks with a lot of caution! I ensure I understand the dogs’ walking habits and how their leash works to guarantee safety.
About: I’ve pet sat for my neighbors and family members for a few years. I used to pet sit for my aunt a lot and I loved it but she moved away, so I can’t pet sit for her anymore. I had so much fun, and I love spending time and caring for every animal. I look forward to meeting your amazing pets, and watching over them for you! I’m currently unemployed and have plenty of free time to check in and care for your pets. Im free the whole 7 days of the week :) I have 5 furry babies myself, 2 big dog fenced in the backyard and 3 kitties in the house, I also have 3 hermit crabs that I take care of. I have plenty of experience with all kinds of pets even a pig :)
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my professional experience working at a dog boarding facility for two years, where I cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments. This experience has given me the skills to handle various situations, from managing energetic pups to providing special attention for senior dogs. Additionally, I've been a dog owner since 2012, which has allowed me to develop a strong understanding of dog behavior, training, and the everyday care needed to keep a pet happy and healthy. I am dedicated to providing your pet with the best possible experience. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of extra time to care and love for your pet. I am free mornings and early afternoon as well as late nights. But I can be flexible. Whatever you and your pet need. Unfortunately, my childhood dog recently passed away but now I have extra space and time for your pets! I have all the necessary things to care for your pet as well as a crate for smaller dogs if needed. But every dog is different so the routine I had for my dog is different than the routine your pet is used to, so whatever your pet needs while you are away, I will be happy to provide that for you both.
“Stephanie was so great with my dog Mayer! She is knowledgeable in pet nutrition which is very important to me and has high standards of care for her dogs. I trust her to take as good care as mine and she does her own! I will definitely use her services in the future ?”
“Arrell is great! I booked him last minute day of appt when I was sick to take my dog for a walk. He was able to fit me into his day and take a weight off my shoulders. He showed up on time and was friendly. Highly recommend him for your pup!”
About: I have hands-on experience with dogs at every stage of life, from training energetic puppies and reinforcing good habits, to providing patient, attentive care for senior dogs. I currently care for two dogs, a 7 year old labordoodle and a 3 year old golden doodle. I also have experience with senior dogs, which has given me a deep understanding of the extra compassion, attention, and adaptability older dogs need. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care. Every dog has their own personality, energy level, and needs—and I take the time to understand that. Whether it’s structured walks, consistent training reinforcement, or simply making sure your dog feels safe and loved while you’re away, I treat every dog like my own. I build my schedule around consistent time blocks each day, which allows me to provide reliable, attentive care while still being flexible for my clients’ needs. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday check-in, or overnight stay, I make sure every dog gets dedicated, unrushed attention. I provide attentive, structured, and loving care whether pets are in my home or their own environment. My goal is always to keep their routine as consistent, safe, and stress-free as possible. In my home, dogs have access to a secure, fenced-in backyard where they can safely run and play. I regularly spend time outside with them playing fetch and letting them burn off energy, along with taking them on walks throughout the day. I currently have two dogs of my own, so any dog in my care benefits from social interaction, supervised play, and a comfortable, home-like environment. Inside, I make sure every dog has a calm, clean space to relax, with plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. I follow each owner’s instructions closely when it comes to feeding schedules, crate routines, medications, and any specific needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes walks, feeding, playtime, and reinforcing any training or habits they’re used to. I also make sure the home is respected and kept tidy, and I provide regular updates so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. Overall, I treat every pet like my own—making sure they are safe, exercised, mentally engaged, and genuinely cared for.
“We had asked Chase to walk our 2 dogs once a day for 2 days while we were traveling out of state. My Mom was watching our dogs while we were away and Chase was very professional and friendly when communicating regarding times and walks with her. Chase is always amazing to work with and the pups love him! Thank you Chase!”
About: I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter since March 2024. I have experience walking all sizes of dogs from Bernese Mountain dogs to an 8 week old pug. I’ve worked with deaf dogs, a dog that was post-op for an ACL tear, and administered medicine if the pet required it. If you have a reactive dog, I may not be the best fit for you, and that’s okay! I have experience with dogs that are reactive to cars, but I prefer not to work with dogs who are reactive to other animals. I started doing this for a little extra cash & exercise when I’m not touring as a full-time stand up comedian. (It’s a real thing. I promise you never have to hear my jokes, but your dogs probably will at some point during our walks.) If you need a weekday dog walker, I’m your gal! You will also have ample notice for any time that I am traveling out of town for shows as my tours are booked the year prior. I had about 10 consistent weekly clients in Pittsburgh working with a business called Happy Tails, but I just moved to Charlotte so I’m looking for new clients! I’m available most weekdays. Weekends are tougher and will depend on my schedule from my full-time job, but I am open to weekends as long as I am in Charlotte. I am very serious about the comfort and safety of your pet. That means I will take the safest route possible (paved sidewalks with low traffic if possible), provide water, and clean up after them when they potty to keep your neighbors happy. I am happy to follow any guidelines you have for caring for your animal. I am also open to doing a trial period with your pet to make sure that we are a good fit for each other.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tega Cay
Grace was absolutely amazing and took such wonderful care of my pup. She went above and beyond just taking my dog for her afternoon walk. She made sure to feed her, play with her, and gave her plenty of attention when they got home. Grace is a wonderful communicator and sent so many photos of their time together. I cannot recommend her enough and I will without a doubt contact her in the future.

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 Tega Cay. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Tega Cay after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Tega Cay. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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 walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
