“She took such great care of my baby boy, always sent pictures and videos to let me know he’s doing well! I will absolutely be bringing him back to relax in his new home with his new friends :)”

“I can't say enough good things about Brenton! He took amazing care of my dog while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such loving hands. He sent me updates and videos, kept to my dog's routine, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. My dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I got home. I highly recommend Brenton to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and responsible sitter!”
“Hannah was quick to communicate and a great fit for our pup! I appreciated the convenience and the update pics. Hannah did a great job and I would not hesitate to contact her again.”

“Andrew was great with Ryker! Ryker enjoyed his stayed and enjoyed playing with Toosh and has been exhausted since coming home. I can clearly see that Ryker was well taken care of and enjoyed his stay. Ryker will be back soon!”

“Amanda is so great at providing updates and photos. It gave me so much comfort knowing she was having just as good of a time as me while I was away!”

“There’s no better, more attentive pet sitter than Ms. Jeanette. She made sure to send us daily updates on our girl to ease our minds. We last minute booked this trip and because she has watched Nala in the past, she was able to fit us in which was very nice. Repeat client over here!”


“Nicole was amazing and accommodating- Deegan loved his stay with her. I received plenty of pictures and pickup/drop-off was a breeze. I will keep her as a guaranteed Rover whenever I have to be out of town.”

“Elias is a rockstar! He cared for our Havanese pups—Oreo (11) and Mocha (5)—like they were his own. Daily walks, timely meals, and the sweetest photo/video updates made us feel so at peace while away. Our dogs looked so happy and relaxed! Elias went above and beyond. Can’t recommend him enough!”

“I would give Ashtonette 10 stars if I could. I have used her for over a year, and she has been one of the most consistent and reliable sitters that I found. My pup absolutely adores spending time at Ashtonette’s. She is incredibly reliable, responsible, and respondent, and I love receiving daily updates from her throughout my travels. It makes me feel at ease knowing my pup is in great hands!”

“My fur baby was right at home. Aquisha was awesome and made me feel very comfortable with leaving Zeus with her. i didn’t worry about him one bit and she sent me pictures daily.”

“Rae was a fantastic caregiver for my dog, Rey. She is very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. I received lots of pictures and a couple of videos which I appreciated. Rae is also a proactive communicator and responds in a timely manner. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Hunter was great. My flight got delayed and I couldn't pick up Walker in time, but she managed to help me out while I was in a bind...Walker for a Christmas gift too!”

“Jenn and her family provided wonderful care for Milo while we were away. Her updates were great and I knew he was in good hands, getting lots of love and comfortable in her house.”


“Monique is my dog’s favorite sitter. In fact, I think he was more sad to leave her than he was happy to come home lol. She’s amazing as usual and I really appreciated her sending random pictures throughout the day of our little man. If she’s available and you’re looking for someone, look no further! As long as it’s not on a weekend where I need her 😉”
“Nicholas maintained great communication and provided updatesthroughout the day. It was great speaking with him. He has our trust, 100%. I’d definitely recommend him to a friend.”

“I really enjoyed working with Trevor! I appreciated his attentiveness and willingness to communicate. Our Josie seemed to have a great weekend with him and his pup, Cody, who seems to be sweet and loving like his dad. Will be booking with him again!”

Cat caregivers near you - Derita-Statesville
“We will definitely be using Paige again soon! She was attentive and wanted to go the extra mile to make sure my two kitties were taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Rachel was wonderful with our sweet boy! She was very flexible and moved around her schedule to fit in visits with our kitty while we were away for a few days. She gave us updates and pictures each day, and we could tell Cas loved hanging out with her!”


“Jenn was excellent with our fur baby and we were instantly relaxed about her when we met her! Solomon had a great time and we would hire her again any day!”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Alyssia! She stayed overnight in our home for a week while we were on vacation in the OBX and took fantastic care of our three cats. She sent daily updates with funny photos and videos that gave us total peace of mind (and some good laughs). Alyssia also took excellent care of our home—bringing in the mail and packages, taking out the trash, and cleaning up after herself. Everything was spotless when we returned. Most importantly, our cats were calm, happy, and well-fed. In the past, they’ve seemed stressed or even lost weight while we were away, but not this time. They warmed up to her quickly! We’ve already rebooked her and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter. Thank you, Alyssia!”


“Peyton did a great job dropping off to feed and entertain my 2 cats while I was gone. My place was kept clean and he spent the full 30 minutes with them at each visit.”


“I cannot put into words how grateful I am for Mo. She went far beyond anything anyone could reasonably expect from a cat sitter. From the moment Mo stopped by for the very first visit till the end when my cat Bug’s condition became fragile, she was incredibly attentive, constantly monitoring her comfort, breathing, and behavior, and keeping me updated every step of the way. She truly cares about animals, not just as a job, but from her heart. She is kind, gentle, reliable, and one of the best human beings I have ever had the privilege of trusting with my cat. When Bug had a sudden medical emergency, she immediately took her to the hospital and stayed with her on FaceTime so I could be present when the hardest decision had to be made. Knowing that Bug was not alone, that she was with someone who loved and protected her in her final moments, means more to me than I can ever express. I will forever be grateful for her compassion, her integrity, and the love she showed my cat Bug. God bless her from the bottom of my heart. I could not recommend her more highly.”


“Salina exceeded our expectations communicated well and went above and beyond to ensure that we felt comfortable. She knows how to use the litter robot and made sure they had fresh water and the food dispenser was always working. My little girl cat is very timid but I was so so happy she was out and about during their visits which tells me that Salina is a cat whisperer!! Definitely will be requesting her services again the next time we go away. Thank you!!”


“Taylor was great with my cat, Rory. She sent awesome updates with the best pictures and I could tell they had a great time together. I will 100% be booking her again!”


“I highly recommend Kristin for sitting with and caring for your pet. She's personable, and I feel she went out of her way to be a friend to my cat while we were out of state. Long sits, even litter maintenance! Came home to a house in perfect condition and a happy pet. Daily updates had me believing they were old pals.”


“Nikita was wonderful with my kitties ! I was so nervous to leave my new new kitten at home while I went on vacation but they did so good together even left me a cat scratcher for him! I would 100 percent recommend Nikita to anyone ! Thank you and I’ll definitely be booking again”

“Sheyla was terrific. Timely, responsible, and great communicator. Our little kitten was well cared for and happy when we returned from holiday travel. Highly recommend Sheyla!”


“I can't say enough good things about Bree! Leaving my cat is always stressful, especially since she needs medication twice a day. But Bree was absolutely amazing. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease. While I was away, Bree sent me regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Piper's well-being. More importantly, she administered Piper's medication perfectly, without any issues. I highly recommend bree to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced cat sitter. She went above and beyond, and I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”


“Elizabeth is absolutely fabulous! She will take wonderful care of your pet(s) and will text pics and send messages/ updates about your pet(s)! I would highly recommend her!”

“I had originally booked Rachel to come check in on my cat while I was going be gone on a work trip; however, I had a family emergency come up and she was able and kind enough to accommodate my last minute change in plans. I can’t recommend her enough!”


“She was great with our cats, took care of everything, and they seemed to like her as well when she came for a visit. She was flexible with our changing schedule as well which was very helpful”

“Stevie Ray connected almost immediately with Sarah, and that something that leaves me at peace knowing my pet was in very good hands. Loved all the pictures with the check ins, Thank you very much!”

“Allison was awesome! She was very responsive and understanding. She provided me with regular updates which helped me be more comfortable with my doggy’s stay. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Peggy was great with my baby girl! She made sure my pup had lots of plays throughout the day, and sent me pictures and updates. She was able to accommodate our booking request such short notice, which really helped us out. Peggy’s home was welcoming and had lots of space for my pup to run around with her pups. I would recommend Peggy if you’re in need of daycare!”

“Alexis was very kind and attentive to Maple! Very good at responding and giving updates on my puppy. Would definitely have her take care of my puppy again.”

“Amanda was amazing and highly communicative throughout the entire stay. She went above and beyond to help my anxious pup feel comfortable, which made a huge difference. I really appreciated her care and attention.”

About: I’ve owned and experienced so many dogs from a very young age. I have cared for, birthed, rehabilitated and rehoused many of them over the years. I love animals and I understand that they understand as well, which plays a big part in their general care. As this is my full time job, my personal schedule would be curated around the care for your pets, as your pets would be priority. Whenever I am scheduled to visit or be with your pets they'd require the same intention and attention as if they were children because they are.😉 In my own I would make sure each and every pet had their specific needs available and met. I would make sure that my home was prepared for that specific need as well as gauge what might need to adjust and be added based off what they're showing me. In your own home it would be the same in each way it’s supposed to. I would provide attentive and aware care to each pet with discernment.
“Latrice was available last minute on Christmas eve/Christmas morning of all days. Was literally a lifesaver that she was available last minute on a holiday. My puppy was happy as could be when I picked him up and I could tell he was well taken care of. :) I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Andrew took such good care of our pup, Lucy! His dog is so friendly and I felt very comfortable having Lucy stay there. I will definitely be requesting another stay, and would highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a great sitter.”
“Debra’s communication and understanding of an unexpected event on our end was great. Her want to make sure our dog would be comfortable during her stay even though our trip got canceled and we were unable to use her services. Our hope is to be able to use her services again the next we are in the area”


About: As a small business owner by day, I understand the importance of trust, communication, and reliability. I’ll care for your pets with the same attention and dedication I bring to serving my clients, while treating your furry family members like my own. I’ve taken care of puppies and dogs in various capacities over the past 18 years. I have a flexible schedule and I’m primarily available for weekday evenings, and full day weekend boarding. On some occasions, I am available during the day. I have a fenced yard for your dogs. I don’t have any dogs of my own, so your pets will have my full, undivided attention.
“Im from CT and was in NC for a conference. Ana was fabulous, easy to work with, flexible and so good to elsa (most important) I wish she would come to CT !! I 1000000% recommend her”

“I so appreciate Enzo and the great care he provides to my pup. I feel great knowing that Chili is in safe and comfortable place where he has a great time and can be social! Thanks Enzo!”

“Thank you for taking great care of my little man!! He seemed like he was comfortable and enjoyed his time. I appreciated all of the pictures and updates through the day. He will definitely be back for daycare and boarding!”

“Shannon is awesome! With my busy work schedule, she was okay with a late night pick up. She even recorded when Georgia drank water, went outside, etc. Georgia even got to cuddle up in bed with her. Such a great experience with Shannon and Rover knowing that my fur baby was well taken care of. We will definitely be returning for future help with Georgia. 10/10 recommend.”

About: I’m the definition of a “dog person” — we’ve had several of our own, and we’ve been a boarding stop for friends and family for years. I’m not working full-time right now, so I have plenty of time to exercise your fur-friend, or just drop in for a visit! If you have any specific questions or concerns, I’d be happy to answer them! I’m not working full-time at the moment, so I’m available any day, at any time! Plenty of time for long walks or drop-ins, whatever your pet needs. Whatever you and your pet are comfortable with! I’ve dealt with tiny dogs and huge dogs, seniors and young puppies — they’re all special to me.

“Jasmine was fantastic with both my dogs! One of my dogs have separation anxiety and takes time to warm up to new people. She warmed right up to Jasmine and actually took a short walk with her! I was able to relax while I was away which was very important. I would not hesitate to use Jasmine again and I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Jasmine!”

About: Hi my name is Joseph! I grew up in a veterinary hospital being surrounded by all breeds and sizes of cats and dogs. I have 7+ years of pet sitting experience for NC State Vet Students and Faculty and currently work for a dog boarding and daycare facility in the Noda area. My background has given me hands-on experience with feeding, exercise, enrichment, and providing attentive compassionate care for every pet. I’m currently working Monday - Friday between 7am-11am (break) 2:30-7pm. On Saturday/Sunday the hours move around alittle but I remain to have a 3-4 hour mid day break for the opportunity to have midday checkups/care. My usual Check-in times when pet sitting have been 10-30 minutes before 6:30-7, 20-40 minutes between 11:30-2, and 20-30 minutes after 7:30. Depending on age, temper and health of the dog the visits can be rearranged for later or earlier visits if needed. With the circumstances of my apartment complex, I do in-house visit of my client instead of having the dog at my home. When arriving at my clients home, I like to first take the dog outside and make sure they use the bathroom. I will update the owner immediately if I see any issues with the pets stool (ie. Blood, Diarrhea, etc). After I like to feed depending on instructed time, or if no meal/ walk the dog around the owners yard or complex if possible. Before leaving I always make sure there is plenty of water and that at least one happy photo. Willing to administer medications in pill form. Also, will always follow clients instructions to a avoid any confusion or accidents.
“Debra is basically family at this point and my dogs best friend. I’m so thankful for her services and her love that she gives Miss Reina. Highly highly HIGHLY recommend”
“She took wonderful care of Loki, handled his excitement with patience, and even cleaned up after him. The photos she took are gorgeous and really capture his personality. highly recommend!”

“Rachel was on time and great at communicating! It was so comforting knowing that she was there to give Gus the attention he needed while I was out of town!”

“Allison was the best walker we could’ve asked for! She was great with communication, was extremely flexible and accommodating with a last minute request, was very thorough in asking questions which made me comfortable with knowing that she cared about knowing about Tozi‘s behavior and personality, And she was punctual. She was very sweet, and I could easily tell she is a dog lover! We highly recommend her.”


“Lauren was absolutely wonderful with Kash! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared for her like she was her own. Kash took to her right away, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Lauren made sure Kash got her walks, attention, and care, and everything went smoothly. I will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter or dog walker!”

About: I’ve been taking care of both cats and dogs since I was 10! I’ve had both cats and dogs throughout their lifetime but unfortunately a pet of my own is not conducive to my current lifestyle, which is why I came to Rover to hang out with your amazing pets! I am extremely reliable for walking, feeding, exercising, or anything else your furry friend may need! I am new to the Charlotte area and hoping to get a dog of my own in the future. I currently have a lot of free time and would love to explore the city with a furry friend! I am willing to care for pets in their everyday home and fulfill housekeeping/other needs that may be necessary. I am also extremely experienced with houseplants and available to care for plants while pet sitting in-home.
About: I’ve raised and rescued animals my whole life. I’ve had animals from dogs and cats. A lot of my education with animals has come from working at a vet clinic as a vet assistant. I will take care of your fur baby as if they were my own. I available 3x a day for your pet on weekdays and depending on the week I will be available on weekends. I’m pretty flexible with times you need me to visit your pet. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. Ill will give plenty of play time, exercise, feeding, watering, and monitor your pet.
“Kelly is exactly what we hoped to find when looking for a dog sitter. She is responsible, good communicator, keeping us in loop with timing/coming and goings, sending pics and letting us know how things are going when we are away, good with our fur babies, and kept our home in good shape while we were gone. Kelly is awesome!”

“Sarah is absolutely wonderful and I would recommend her to anybody. She’s responsive, reliable, and most importantly my dog loves taking walks with her. Sarah is very attentive to my pup’s needs and quirks. Your dog will be in great hands with her.”

“Maria did wonderful walking and playing with my sweet girl! I have a senior pet and she was very easily able to adapt with her to fit her needs. Will definitely be booking again in the future!”

About: Hi! My name is Sarah and I am the (very) proud owner of a rescue named Benji! He's the love of my life and we are always looking for other dog friends to spend our time with! My experience with dogs is extensive as I grew up with a German Shepard, taking on full responsibility with him as a teenager. I have dog sat for several families for vacations and weekends and am comfortable with all breeds, and have been sitting for Rover since 2016. I know that dogs are part of your family and will always treat them as such. I have experience with giving medication (even to dogs who don't want it!) as well as baths and providing comfort to anxious or nervous dogs. I have had a lot of experience with sitting a variety of dogs with many different personalities through Rover. I am a very patient person (I am a teacher) and am good with dogs who are shy or cautious.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life including 2 dogs of my own now. Comfortable with reactivity, large breeds and puppies! As a rover user I appreciate updates and pictures which I am sure to provide plenty of. I’m easy to communicate with and look forward to taking care of your furry friends while you’re away! Also a volunteer at Charlotte animal control, so I’m very comfortable and familiar walking all different types of dogs and caring for animals of all kind! I currently am enrolled in school remotely besides 1 hour every Tuesday and Thursday from 10-1130. Outside of that I am completely available and flexible! I will care for them as if they are my own! Always being diligent and present never leaving them on their own through constant attention and play.

The day I was supposed to pick Ollie up, my flight was delayed til super late, and Erika was extremely responsive and cooperative working with me to find the best way to handle the pickup.

I’m truly excited to care for your furry friends as my 3 year old and I love being around dogs! Please note: For drop-ins I will walk, feed, and play with your dog(s). For cats, I will feed, change the litter and play with them. I work from home on Thursday and Friday and I’m available days and nights on the weekends. I’m in the office on Monday - Wednesday. I have an open and spacious yard and can easily crate your dog inside if needed. We will walk in the neighborhood at least every 3 hours and I will log all bathroom activity.

I would absolutely book again and highly recommend Michael!”
