Dog Sitting Tryon

About: I have worked with dogs since I was about 10 years old! My neighbor (in my previous neighborhood) taught me how to work with puppies, and I got to help train and keep her Schnauzer puppy named Greta! When my neighbor became terminally ill, we watched Greta for several months at my house before my neighbor passed away. My neighbor's husband let me still take care of Greta whenever he would go out of town or just to let us keep her in the house! A few years later, my family and I adopted our senior dog, Mikey! He was a 12-year-old Shetland Sheepdog with a lot of sass and energy! I loved Mikey to the utmost until he passed away at 16 years old. I have since moved to a new neighborhood and taken care of my neighbors' dogs (Coco (Miniature Schnauzer), Floofy (cat), Nala (a cat), Smokey (German Shepherd, Cleo (German Shepherd), and Aggie (Terrier)). I have also taken care of my dance teacher's dog, Gizmoe and my friend's cat (Tobi) while in college. I love dogs and cats, they are such sweet beings, and I would love to be able to take care of your fur baby! I currently have a princess job, but it is extremely flexible with when and where I work! I am able to schedule when I am unavailable for that job to be able to take care of a pet if needed! I go to church on Sunday mornings, so I try to keep Sundays to myself, but if needed I can do pet care on a Sunday! I am willing to negotiate and figure out availability for your animal's customized care! I follow instructions to a T! If there are specific things that your animal needs, I will make that my first priority when they are in my care! I am unable to bring animals into my home solely because of my mom requesting that I don't. I typically don't put the animals in their crate unless I have specific instructions to do so, I like to play with the animal and socialize with it, unless the owner tells me the animal doesn't require that. I am at your service, so if there is anything you need, please let me know! (:

“I arranged 2 drop ins for an extra long work day. She was very professional, and very considerate of my home. She was very attentive and my dogs really liked her. She sent many pictures and stayed with them for 30 minutes each visit. I really appreciate not only her professionalism, but her consideration for my dogs and myself. I will be contacting her again next time my dogs need a walk or friendly visit!”

About: Hi my name is Noelle I’m 31 years old and I have moved back to Charlotte so I am always looking for a furry friend to keep me company and have a friend! Always had a love for pets and dog sitting! I love being outdoors and going for runs in the park! Being a sport management major I love sports and being active! Watching dogs give me the excitement to have someone to keep me company and also have fun with! I always say a dog is everyone’s best friend and the more the merrier! I look forward to hearing from you and working with you and your furry friends soon. Thank you so much for your time! I love to be the person there for your better half while your away and keep them in their comfort zone since their mom/dad is away! I always go right home after work and spend the remaining of my evening home unless I just have to run to the store. I love to go on walks so your pup will definitely get their exercise in with me! I do not have a fenced in yard but I love walking them to get outside and enjoy the days! If your dog is crate trained and needs to be in the crate while I am at work I will do so otherwise I will just leave them out for the day until I get back!

“Caresse was very professional and pleasant to work with, she followed all the directions and sent pics and updates about my puppy. Thx again Caresse 😊”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10 walking neighborhood dogs. I have three cats at home and I have owned a dog before! I love pets, and love seeing a happy pet!! I am currently a full time student athlete, but have a very flexible schedule. I am totally willing to spend nights with pets and even just stop by for a walk here and there! I am still living in a dorm styled housing, so taking pegs in my home will not yet be an option. Although I’m sure if I had to walk the pet over, there are sooo many people that would love to give some love that are missing their pets at home!!

“Jade does such a wonderful job with our pups. She treats them as if they were her own. Having Jade watch our dogs really gives us piece of mind when we are away. We would definitely recommend her and will for sure keep booking her.”

About: I’m a dependable, caring pet sitter who will treat your dog like family. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone you trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to keeping dogs safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feedings, medication reminders, or just extra love and attention, I’m here to help. I’ll make sure your pet gets the care they deserve while giving you peace of mind. As an ER nurse, I work just three days a week, giving me plenty of free time to care for your furry family members! I love spending my days off with animals and would love to give your pets all the attention, cuddles, and love they deserve. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and spoiled while you’re away! I spend my workdays taking care of humans, and I’d love to spend my days off giving that same love, attention, and compassion to your fur babies! Whether it’s walks, playtime, belly rubs, or endless cuddles, I’ll treat your pets like family. Saving humans is my profession, but loving animals is my passion!

About: Hi my name is Mariah! I have cared for animals since before i can remember. I love animals. I am passionate about their welfare and and have worked at the animal shelter for over 2 years. I know how to communicate with animals in a special way (better than I can with people) & am very receptive to their individual needs and personalities . I can adapt to special needs animals such as those with high anxiety, vision, hearing loss or specific medication regimes or dietary needs. I am a dog person but I love all animals! I don't discriminate based on breed. That being said, while I am comfortable house sitting and walking any breed, I am not comfortable walking extra large dogs unless very well trained on a leash (non-dog reactive, etc.). Please let me know if you have any questions & I will be happy to answer! If this is your first time booking on Rover, you can get $20 off your first booking by using the promo code MARIAZ13978 I am free overnight, most weekdays, and holidays for pet sitting . I would appreciate at least 2 days notice before making any commitments . I also offer in-house sitting I have two dogs, a cat and a catfish. My dogs are special needs and do not get along well with dogs so I will not be able to sit for your animals at my home unfortunately.

About: Growing up I've always had a love for all types of pets, I've had a few family pets that I would take care of as well! What sets me apart from other sitters is that I strive to create a bond with your pets! Usually, I would like to set up an appointment ahead of time to meet your loved ones and we can create a bond, I would like to take this time to see if they're comfortable with me based on body language & behaviors! I have experience working with all kinds of pets, and I've worked at boarding facilities. I have experience working with reactive animals and I currently have a reactive dog!! Any extra knowledge I have is because I have a great sister who is a veterinary technician! I currently work 2 jobs, both of which are Thursday-Sunday. At one of my jobs I work overnight, so there is a possibility I will have to leave to work in the middle of the night and will be back by morning. Along with my 2 jobs, I am also a college student, with that being said I have to attend in-person classes during the week. I am able to care for your loved ones before, between, and after work, and make it a priority to give your animals quality care & all the love I can. If you have any questions about my schedule please feel free to reach out! I keep a close watch on my own pets as well as the pets I look after. I would prefer a list/note of what type of pet care you expect, for instance writing a note with your animal's daily schedule and when/what to feed them! If your babies have any allergies or if there's anything specific you'd like me to know about your pet please also disclose that information. At the end of each stay/visit, I make it a point to include a brief summary of how your pet(s) behave, just to bring you up to speed! I like to send lots of photos and videos of your pet, so keep your phone close to receive ALL the love from back home <3

About: My name is Jiji. My house in Morganton. I have had dogs and cats growing up. I am a registered nurse and I enjoy taking care of ppl and animals. I have 2 border collies of my own that live on my property. They are well trained and well socialized. My neighbor’s dog also periodically stop by the house to play with the dogs as well. Apollo is 5 yrs and Alila is 3 yrs. They love making new friends and are always looking for new fluffs to play with :). I’m a registered nurse. I typically work three days a week. I plan my schedule ahead of time so please let me know in advance so I can accommodate the new fluff(s) :). It really depends on the animal. My dogs love playing with new friends in the yard. They’re welcome to share with whatever my dogs play with as well. They both love tug of war. Apollo loves fetch. They both like herding. My dogs love playing tag as well.

“Mya was awesome! My cat was clearly very well cared for and she did a great job and keeping the litter box clean. Would definitely recommend her to others”
