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!

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!

Access to both elevator and stairs. Plenty of room for an additional cat if they board.

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: I've been caring for many kinds of animals growing up and over the years. I'm currently the proud pet parent of 1 dog, 3 cats, and a tortoise. I've raised goats, chickens, and guineas before as well. I volunteer at animal control 6-7 days a week and work part time at the animal shelter on those same days, caring for dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens. I have experience with senior dogs and cats, plenty of bathing and walking experience, and also experience with administering medications and drawing blood. I've petsit many times for many local relatives and friends, including for animals who needed special care after a surgery and for dogs that were blind and deaf. I have experience with crating dogs if needed, and I care for any size dog, well mannered or excitable. Additionally, I have cared for rats, snakes, and turtles too! I will care for your pets as if they were my own! I work part time and go to college. Currently, I'm available 7 days a week 11:30am and after. Early or late visits are not a problem. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog if you need boarding at my home, as long as they're good with cats. I will cater my care to your requests and the needs of your fur baby. Their health and well being comes first to me!

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!!
