About: I have trained and groomed my dog since he was a puppy, and we all know how dramatic Shibas can be. I approach all animals with love and patience in order to gain their trust, no matter the situation. I am incredibly affectionate so your pet will never feel out of place during their stay with me! I’m currently home at all times with my pet and would love to invite yours into our warm and loving home. I am able to provide meticulous and attentive round the clock care to your pet if they require. I reside in a dog friendly apartment complex with multiple parks for them to release extra energy. My baby, Kylo, will gladly keep them company or leave them alone, depending on their needs. Much like myself, he is very attentive. I also have a porch and a hammock that Kylo and I enjoy during warmer weather. If needed, I can easily crate your pet

About: From caring for beta fish and guinea pigs at a young age to looking after pit bulls and dogs of all sizes, I’ve loved caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I quickly became the neighborhood pet sitter, and even now as an adult, I’m often the person friends and neighbors call for walks, drop-ins, and reliable pet care. I provide attentive, dependable care and work to create a safe, comfortable, and loving experience for every pet I watch. Because I genuinely love animals and connect with them easily, I focus on giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while helping them feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. I also value communication and make sure owners feel informed and reassured through regular updates, photos, and messages. My experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities has helped me build trust with both pets and their owners, ensuring every dog feels happy, safe, and well cared for. You can expect flexible scheduling and dependable care, with open availability on Fridays and remote workdays throughout the week that make me available for drop-ins, walks, and extra attention for your pets. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets in my apartment, which has access to dog parks and nearby walking trails for exercise and playtime. I make sure pets stay on their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, play, and plenty of attention and affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining clear communication with owners through updates and photos. My priority is always making pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I have always had a huge love for all animals and taking care of them. From dogs to cats to rabbits I’ve had them all and still have an immense amount of love to give. I’ve always had a passion for taking care of animals and always said I’d like to have my own farm one day. I can guarantee I will be patient and loving towards your baby and can ensure they will be in the right hands. I just recently moved to the Charlotte area and am still looking for consistent work so I have a lot of time on my hands as of late to devote to your pet! I will ensure that your pet(s) is safe, comfortable and well taken care of in its environment while you are away. I will have make sure they are happy and healthy, maintaining they’re routines and keeping them active.

About: I grew up around dogs and have always loved being around animals. Taking care of pets has been a normal part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I also have hands-on experience helping with a family pet sitting business, where I assisted with feeding, walking, and general care. That experience taught me how important it is to be reliable, attentive, and patient with every pet. Right now, I live in an apartment, so I don’t currently have a dog or cat of my own, but I do care for two leopard geckos and a chameleon, so I’m very used to maintaining consistent care routines and paying attention to small details in animal behavior and health. I’m currently a fourth year college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to pet care. I am taking online classes during the summer, so I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I can work around your pet’s routine for visits, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I prioritize reliability and clear communication, so you can feel confident your pet is being cared for exactly as requested. I aim to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your furry friend feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or litter care, because I know how important consistency is for both dogs and cats. I always make sure your home stays safe and secure, and I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and well-being. As a biology student, I’m very detail-oriented and attentive to even small changes. I’ll treat your furry friend like my own, with lots of patience, care, and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have watched my neighbors dogs for 2 years, and I had dogs of my own. I treat them like they are my own kids and show them a lot of love that they deserve. Nothing makes me happier than being around dogs and cats as well. I work night shift right now, but I am free during the Morning.I am very flexible between 7 am-5-pm. I will also work with your schedule. I do not have a fenced yard but I have a big backyard with a trail and a pond in the back. It’s a very walkable area.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 11. I have 6 years of experience working with anxious dogs, however I wouldn’t recommend boarding your anxious dog at a strangers house(might be way to stressful for your furry friend). I am also experienced with cat care and dealing with cats of all temperaments. I wake up early. I mostly stay in the apartment. I am currently self employed, so I have a lot of flexibility throughout my day. Can pet proof home if your pet gets into things a lot. Very careful with front doors, because I know some pets are not trained to stay when the door is opened.

Tara was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Tango! As first-time users of the Rover app, I was initially a bit nervous about letting someone into my home—especially with a highly anxious pup. But Tara put us at ease right away. She responded quickly, came by the same day to meet me, and was incredibly punctual and attentive to all of my requests. Thanks to her, my first Rover experience was seamless. Thank you Tara!
