“Charity was absolutely incredible with my lab and golden who stayed with her for 6 days. I was very nervous using Rover for the first time and as soon as I met Charity, she eased all my fears. She has so much experience with her dogs, as do her adorable children and they were so sweet with them! She sent me a lot of beautiful photos to ease my mind while we were away and handled my lab throwing up on the second to last day with such grace like a pro. My dogs were so welcomed and relaxed into their home very quickly. My golden takes a lot of supplements and Charity was so precise to even notice that I left one of the supplements off my instructions and she messaged me to confirm. She was extremely responsive and communicative through the entire process from my inquiry just a week and an half before our trip until even after we got home checking in on my lab. She’s amazing!!! I would 1000% recommend Charity to anyone looking for a caring and kind pet sitter who will treat them like her own. I would love to book with Charity again in the future for any short trips we take!”

“This was our first time leaving our cats and hiring a pet sitter, and Kathy made the whole experience so easy. She’s such a sweet, caring person, and we could tell right away our cats were in good hands.

We’re so grateful we found her on Rover and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

If you hire her, I'm sure you will be more than happy!”

Sent numerous photos throughout the entire time we were away and gave plenty of updates. I would not go to anybody else!!”

“Nikki was phenomenal. She took care of our 5 kitties while my husband and I were away. She checked in each day with a detailed report and sent tons of pictures.

About: I’ve been a dog sitter since I was 10, neighbors relied on me to feed and walk their pets. We’ve had dogs in our family for twenty years. I’m experienced with large and small dogs as well as dogs with seizures and heart problems. Hi! I’m a part-time employee with a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time during the day for drop-ins, walks, or snuggles with your pup. I also welcome overnight guests, so whether you need quick check-ins or extended care, I’ve got you covered. Your pets will get lots of love, attention, and play while you’re away! I have a fenced in yard that will keep your fur babies safe. I live on a culdasac that has limited traffic and a neighborhood with beautiful areas to walk along the sidewalk. I typically walk my goldens 1.5 miles a day. I have a baby gate that prevents the dogs from going upstairs if needed, and another gate at the stop of the stairs to prevent them from going down if stairs are a problem for your fur baby. Dogs are like people in our home, always with us, cuddling on the couch and sleeping in our rooms. I crate trained my dogs as puppies and am familiar and comfortable with crates if one is dropped off.

“Max enjoyed his time with Lena. She was very attentive to him and provided him with great care during his visit. This was his first time away from his family, so her kindness was very important. Max made a new friend with Lena's Yorkie, Freddie. Lena sent us a very nice photo of the two new friends. We will definitely contact Lena for future visits to that area. Thank you very much, Lena!”
About: I've always had pets of my own or in my care; from my childhood golden retriever mix to the cats that have allowed me in "their" home, to working as a caretaker in a Georgia county animal shelter and fostering kittens, puppies, and adult dogs through Athens Canine Rescue, animals make me happy. . I'm comfortable taking care of dogs of all shapes, sizes, and needs, either in my house or yours.

I'm excited to host your pets in their home away from home. I work full time from home as a data analyst, so your companion will have constant daytime supervision. With about 1 full acre fenced in, my home is secluded, peaceful, and a super place for your friend to spend time. Just let me know what you want for your pet and I'm more than happy to accommodate; in my home, my pets come first!
“Ali and her family to such good care of our golden retriever for the day. When I picked him up he was relaxed and happy. He went on two walks, including one to the creek, and obviously received lots of love and attention from everyone! He had been very apprehensive when we first came for a meet-and-greet but Ali was so kind to him and he soon felt right at home.”

About: Create a peaceful and loving space for your furry friends! I focus on providing comfort-centered care for anxious and senior dogs.

About: Hi, I’m Charity! Having had animals all my life, I truly have a deep love and respect for them. To this day, one of my most favorite jobs was my very first job in high school at a dog boarding facility a short four wheel drive through our woods. My responsibilities there were to let dogs out, love on, clean/sanitize kennels, feed and administer medications, and clean up the dog yards. I gained so much experience with different breeds while there, which made me fall more in love with dogs specifically. As an adult, my first dog was a West Highland Terrier named Gabby that my then fiancé (now husband) surprised me with. She sadly passed at 14.5 years old in October of 2024. We also have bench bred/English Labradors named Abel & Jett. Jett is the first dog I’ve had that I got involved with dog shows and sports with. He has multiple titles from obedience, dock diving, fast cat, conformation, and hunt tests. I am a stay at home mom which allows me the freedom to be available for your dog majority of the day aside from when I need to run errands. BOARDING: We have a spacious home on a culdesac with a large fenced in backyard. When caring for pets in my home, it is incredibly important to me to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved while providing lots of snuggles and play time. Daily updates of how your dog is doing along with pictures are sent to help keep your mind at ease. During a client dog’s stay, they will be on the main floor with our family. We have a basement with access to the backyard complete with a dog room furnished with 3 4ft x 6ft kennels, Kuranda beds, & orthopedic beds that my personal dogs will utilize, and is available for client dogs as well if needed. I also have a baby gate on our laundry room doorway off the kitchen that can be used for client dogs to have their own private space. This allows me to ensure every dog stays safe when not supervised. *I typically only board one client at a time. This allows your dog(s) to get all the attention and, I believe, have an easier transition staying in a new place vs there being multiple dogs from different clients. If a ‘regular’ requests the same dates, I will sometimes make an exception and let both families know there will be an additional dog. With my home set up, I am able to comfortably keep several client dogs separated and will only allow interaction between them with the approval of both families. DROP INS: During drop-in visits, our time is spent going out in their backyard for potty breaks and play, going on walks, getting loved on, and fed if needed. Any quick tidying I can do in the house (vacuuming, mop up if it’s muddy outside, wipe down counters, scoop out a litter box, etc) I am happy to do as well.
About: Heya, I go by “Kye” (Kī, sounds like Kai). To me, it’s an honor, when you entrust your pet(s) & home to me. As a pro petsitter since ‘09, including more than 132 furry friends in Cherokee County, you are assured your paws are in good hands. Let’s message to see if we’re a good fit :) Petsitting is my main source of income. My other responsibilities include: a 1st-grader whose other parent helps as needed; plus part-time work that can be done remotely. Safety is my top concern. I’m very aware of doors, locks, latches, leashes, quirks, etc. I look out for the safety of your pets, home, myself (& child if we agree), & those around us. Thankfully I haven’t had any safety issues since I began in ‘09
“Gina has been absolutely wonderful. She is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the dogs she walks. She always sends updates and makes sure the dogs get great, thorough walks.

About: My mom has been a dog sitter for years, so I have seen every color of fur on the couches and floors. I do have 2 cats, 1 senior shih tzu, and a shorkie that has an excessive amount of energy. I recently had a part time job that fit perfectly with my school schedule. This year my school schedule is a little unique and after awhile I felt over worked. I chose to work with animals because I like their presence, and it doesn’t feel like a job. I have 4 animals that live in my house. 2 cats, and 2 dogs. It is very organized in my home because we have a routine. When I come into a clients home I do what’s best for their pets, and if possible stick to their routine.
About: Pet Bed & Breakfast! Your pets will be on a vacation themselves, as I enjoy going above & beyond in spoiling them with cuddles, playtime, several potty breaks, and walks to explore and get active! I thoroughly enjoy hosting pups from all walks of life (pun intended); I will love & care for your dog as if they are my own. I value safety, communication, and comfort as the foundations behind how I operate, and being a true lover of animals, this is something I genuinely enjoy doing. When the pups are happy, that’s when I’m happy. I also enjoy befriending the pup’s families & building a rapport, so that you don’t feel like you’re leaving your pet with a stranger, but rather a friend you can trust will care for them. Growing up I was surrounded by animals. I had 3 dogs, 4 cats, a horse, and several small critters; pets are my passion! I used to Rover back in college and loved it so much, I’m doing it again for fun! Since beginning, it has been so much fun having a cuddly friend around and I thoroughly enjoy Rover & the amazing pups it brings my way. I am gentle, reliable, patient, and energetic! I prioritize both pet and owner comfort ie. Meet & Greets are essential before pets come to stay. I’m big on communication so be ready for lots of cute photos throughout your pup’s stay! I’m experienced giving medicine to cats & dogs- my lab growing up had arthritis and I regularly fed her medicine. My childhood cat also took thyroid medicine 2x daily. I also had to give my other elderly cat regular medicine injections. I take animal medicine administration very seriously, so you can trust that your pet will be healthy & comfortable during their stay. Cuddling, long walks, playing, and hanging out are my favorite activities to do with puppers and I also adore my feline friends. Potty breaks take place in neighborhood and private back yard. I don’t have any roommates, so your pets will be safe with me. I have a flexible work schedule & work from home, so I enjoy the company of the pups while I work. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so potty breaks can be as frequent as needed. I also enjoy the outside time walking pups gives me! I’m a big cuddler and have plenty of space inside for all the critters to have their own turf. Inside your home, I treat your home with respect and always try to leave it looking better than how it did when I got there: full bowls of water, a content fur baby, and a full belly!
About: I have experience working in a dog daycare and boarding facility for the last few years. I know dog behaviors, and I will treat your dogs just like my own. I currently work at a dog daycare and boarding facility from Monday to Thursday every week. After that I am available to take care of your pets Thursday afternoon to Sunday night. I will make sure your dog has food, water, exercise, and lots of love. I will follow my clients rules at their home to a tee.
About: Reliable, structured care is what sets me apart. I’m happy to follow your established routines and house rules to ensure consistency for your pet. I’m comfortable with puppies (crate routines and reinforcing good habits) as well as senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive pace. I regularly care for dogs during the weekday and am experienced managing routines, timing, and midday coverage. I prioritize dependable timing, clear communication, and making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ve owned dogs for over 15 years and have been pet sitting since 1995. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. Pet care is already part of my regular weekday routine, allowing me to provide consistent and reliable service. I structure my schedule to maintain dependable timing for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I’m typically available for weekday midday and afternoon care, and I also offer boarding with a safe, structured environment and plenty of outdoor time for play, exercise, and fresh air. I don’t currently have dogs of my own, which allows me to provide a calm environment and give your pet my full attention. I keep my schedule organized to ensure each pet receives attentive, well-paced care and doesn’t feel rushed or overlooked. Safety and consistency are my top priorities in both my home and my client’s home. I follow each pet’s established routine closely, including feeding schedules, crate or free-roam preferences, and any specific care instructions. In my home, I provide a calm, structured environment with a large, fenced yard for safe, supervised outdoor time, exercise, and enrichment. Pets are never left unattended with unknown animals, and I prioritize a low-stress setting tailored to each dog’s temperament. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and secure. I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any changes that might indicate stress or discomfort. I’m also comfortable administering basic medications if needed. I focus on clear communication, dependable care, and making sure both you and your pet feel confident and at ease.

“Charity was absolutely incredible with my lab and golden who stayed with her for 6 days. I was very nervous using Rover for the first time and as soon as I met Charity, she eased all my fears. She has so much experience with her dogs, as do her adorable children and they were so sweet with them! She sent me a lot of beautiful photos to ease my mind while we were away and handled my lab throwing up on the second to last day with such grace like a pro. My dogs were so welcomed and relaxed into their home very quickly. My golden takes a lot of supplements and Charity was so precise to even notice that I left one of the supplements off my instructions and she messaged me to confirm. She was extremely responsive and communicative through the entire process from my inquiry just a week and an half before our trip until even after we got home checking in on my lab. She’s amazing!!! I would 1000% recommend Charity to anyone looking for a caring and kind pet sitter who will treat them like her own. I would love to book with Charity again in the future for any short trips we take!”
