“Our anti-social kitty likes her better than us! Allison is incredible!!! From the moment we met her for a meet & greet I knew she was perfect. We felt 100% comfortable with her coming in to our home, and knew our cats were in great hands. She’s responsible, great at communicating with us, and so sweet. She must be a cat whisperer because our shy kitty not only snuggled her day 1, but even let Allison rub her belly! We are so thankful to have such a wonderful professional do checkins/feeding while we were away.”

About: I have grown up around a variety of animals and have been a trusted caretaker for 3 years now! I have experience with reptiles, aquatic life, dogs, cats, small furry friends, and birds. I would love to help in any way I can! I currently have very open availability and can offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m able to adjust my schedule as needed and provide consistent, attentive care. I’m really big on making sure my pets are happy, comfortable, and taken care of. I keep them on a consistent feeding schedule, always make sure they have fresh water, and stay on top of cleaning their litter boxes regularly. They have lots of toys, cat trees, and little things to keep them entertained, and I love giving them attention and spending time with them. I’m very attentive to their routines and needs, and I treat them like my babies.

About: I have personally had animals of a broad variety since I was born. I have sat for friends and family for over 5 years. I love it, love them like my own! I am currently an elementary school teacher and teach until 3 daily. I will be at home daily for the remainder of the day and am always home on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard that your animals can run and play in, an array of toys. If needed you can bring a crate for keeping if they are used to that. I do have cat crates.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for family members, friends, friends of friends and strangers for years! I grew up with dogs and cats in my household. I have experience with multiple animals at one time in addition to strict diet and medication schedules. I have a flexible schedule so I’m able to accommodate your animals needs at any given time! My biggest concern as a pet owner is leaving my pet with someone that doesn’t love my animal as much as me. I can assure you that your pet will be the center of my attention when I’m with them. I believe in treating people the way they want to be treated and I’ll be sure to make your animal feel loved while you’re away. As a fully remote worker, pet care easily fits into my daily and weekly routine. I am available to care for your animal as needed, providing responsible and attentive care. As a remote worker, I offer pet care services in the client's home. My flexible schedule allows me to provide attentive care and meet their pet's specific needs.

About: Because I work remotely, pets are rarely left alone for long periods of time. I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and energy levels... from a senior dog who became blind and deaf, which taught me patience and gentle, consistent care, to my current puppy, where I focus on training, routine, exercise, and positive reinforcement for high-energy needs. I also have two cats with very different personalities, so I am very attentive to body language and always respect each pet’s comfort level, allowing them to warm up at their own pace. I work remotely and am home throughout the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship without dogs being left alone for long periods. My mornings usually start with feeding and a walk or outdoor time. Throughout the day, I schedule additional walks, play sessions, and enrichment based on each dog’s energy level and needs. Because I’m home, I can easily adjust my schedule for puppies, senior dogs, or dogs who need extra attention or routine. I make sure routines stay consistent from day to day so dogs feel comfortable, secure, and at home. Dog care isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s part of my everyday life. My goal is always to provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment where dogs feel happy and well cared for. I take safety, trust, and comfort very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine while providing a calm, secure environment. In my home, pets are closely supervised and never left unattended for long periods of time. Because I work remotely, I’m able to be present throughout the day to monitor behavior, provide regular potty breaks, walks, and attention, and ensure pets are comfortable and relaxed. I keep my space clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, and I’m careful to follow any household rules provided by owners. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely. I make sure doors and gates are secure, food and medications are given as directed, and pets receive the level of interaction and exercise they’re used to. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and communicate updates promptly. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where pets feel secure and owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: Having grown up around dogs of all sizes my whole life, I bring a lifetime of experience to pet sitting. This isn't just a job for me; it's a genuine passion. Whether it's puppy training or senior care, I'm equipped to provide tailored, loving support for your furry friends. I’m currently working part-time and play a sport in my time off. However I will make time for your furry friends. No matter when it is or what it is, I’ll be here! I’m working on getting a temporary fence set up in my front yard, but I do have plenty of space indoors for your dog to play around and have fun!

We messed up and made things more difficult for Alayna (wrong address! Forgot to give her the key!) and she didn’t miss a beat. Our animals were extremely well cared for with all the love and kindness one could ask. Thank you so much!”

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Growing up, I had dogs, cats, a pig, and a variety of small animals, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. For more than 20 years, I've provided pet and house sitting for friends and family, caring for everything from farm animals to energetic puppies, senior pets, and cats. I'm comfortable with pets who have special needs and have experience administering medications, including oral medications, allergy injections, and insulin shots. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, drop-in visits, or overnight in-home care, I can accommodate a variety of schedules while making sure they receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care. When you're away, I'll treat your pets and your home with the same respect, patience, and love that I would my own. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. I work from home full time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable drop in visits, midday walks, and in home pet sitting throughout the week. Because I work remotely, I'm able to be flexible with visit times and can give your pets the attention and companionship they deserve. While I don't offer boarding, I'm happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home where they feel most secure. Your pet's safety and well being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to follow your care instructions closely. Whether it's administering medications (if needed), maintaining feeding schedules, reinforcing training, or simply providing a calm and reassuring presence, I strive to make your pet feel safe and cared for. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Tryon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Tryon on Rover is $12.21 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 3,970 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Tryon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Tryon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Tryon choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter 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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Tryon with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tryon. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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 sitter.
