“Hannah provided excellent communication and was thorough when asking details about my pet. I will be requesting her services again in the future, and would absolutely recommend her!”

“Caprielle is a lifesaver! She walks Gucci and stepped in last minute to puppy-sit both of our boys so we could run errands stress-free. She’s reliable, dependable and so friendly! We’re so grateful for her and highly recommend!”

About: I have had all kinds of pets throughout my entire life. Every time we got a new dog, I always trained them the basics and they all have been great dogs. When my parents friends need someone to care for their animals while they’re gone, they always call me. I am a full-time student at UNC Charlotte with a flexible schedule to help out those in need! I love meeting new pets and caring for them before and after classes, which since I am graduating this spring is not many. I care for pets in the home as they are my own. I love interacting, cuddling, and talking to them like they can converse back, although they think I am crazy. I like to follow personal preferences and think no request or routine is crazy when it comes to your fur baby!
“Arabella was very helpful with us and taking our sweet boy out three times! She was very responsible, caring and gave us great feedback and updates with our boy! 10/10 will recommend she was great”

“Above and Beyond service from Debra. This was first experience and I was nervous but she did a fabulous job. Followed instructions. Amazing job. I would highly recommend”

“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!”

I can’t say enough about Rachel and the great job she did taking care of our sweet chocolate lab Mik. He has a lot of energy and she took him for a long beautiful walk in a park. From the start, you could see she made an immediate connection with Mik and that made us comfortable too. So grateful for her and the way she communicated through regular texts and pics! She is definitely our go-to and highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a caring, friendly, kind-hearted person who will listen to your pets (and your) needs!!

Marissa was amazing with our pup! We had just moved into a new home and didn’t have our fence set up yet, so leaving him alone during the day wasn’t an option. Marissa gave us total peace of mind while we were at work—super reliable, communicative, and clearly great with dogs. Highly recommend!
