“Cannot express how wonderful Dana was for our dogs. She earned their trust and love, and she gave it back ten fold to them. “Aunt Dana” has earned our trust and she will definitely be our new preferred sitter for our furry kids! Cannot recommend enough.”
“From the moment I booked with this sitter and had our initial video chat, I instantly felt good vibes and positive energy. She has a dog of her own, and it was clear that Chloe got along with her wonderfully. Throughout the stay, the sitter kept me updated with photos and messages, which I truly appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing Chloe was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Alyssa and Spencer took great care of Sadie!! They were able to take her on short notice which was a huge help and gave her lots of love. Thank you Alyssa and Spencer!!”
About: My name is Grace and I am 25 years old. I graduated N.C. State University, majoring in Psychology and Biology. I am currently finishing grad school for Occupational Therapy. I have always loved all animals growing up and have been pet sitting since around 10 years old. I have done various sorts of petsitting from weeks of overnight stays to just swinging by the house to play with the dogs and take them out/feed them. I am super flexible and will work with your needs! I have many years of babysitting under my belt too, as I am very responsible and will never let you down. I am currently am studying for my boards so I have plenty of flexibility around times, days, etc. so just let me know what you need and I will accommodate! I also volunteer at the animal shelter, so I have a lot of experience with different kind of dogs. Your pups will be loved, cared for and pampered when I watch them. I am reliable and just have a genuine love for animals, especially dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your animals :) I currently am studying for my exam in October so I am home most of the day and have plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the week and weekends. My two dogs listed on my profile don’t live with me (they live with my parents), so I have no pets at home. I love to spend time with all pups and it’s very important to me that your dogs get the care that you would get from yourselves! I treat all dogs as my own and love to spoil them.
“Kayla is amazing! She was able to accommodate us very last minute. Kayla & family were absolutely wonderful with our pup! From the very beginning, communication was clear and prompt, which made us feel at ease leaving our dog in their care. They followed all instructions carefully, gave regular updates with photos, and went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable, happy, and well-exercised. It was clear how much they genuinely love animals. We came home to a relaxed & happy pup. We couldn’t ask for a person(family) to take care of our fur baby. We definitely recommend Kayla. -Carina”
“This was my first rover experience in Charlotte. Linda was great with my dog Riggins! She sent tons of pictures and updates. Riggins had a great time with her! She even accommodated me when my flight was canceled which gave me such peace of mind! Will def book with her again!”
“Cynthia did a great job. She responded to my booking request quickly, sent pictures as updates, and always had another dog there for mine to play with, which was nice. My dog was very happy upon pickup, in the kind of way that he had fun.”
“This Was My Very First Time Using Rover.. I Went On A 15 Day Hawaii Cruise And Galye Was Left In Bozena Care For 18 Days.. Bozena Updated Me Daily With Pictures Of Galye Which I Really Appreciated Because I Missed Galye So Much.. She Responded Very Quickly If I Had A Question When Checking Up On Galye.. This Was The First Time Being Away From Galye For So Long.. Bozena Did An Amazing Job Taking Care Of Galye & I Would Definitely Use Her Again & Definitely Recommend Her For Caring For Your Pet. Thank You! Again 🤗😀”
“Diamond is such a phenomenal sitter! She had a birthday party for one of my pups complete with pictures, treats, gifts, and a party hat! I know my pups feel comfortable with her because when we arrive they run directly to the door with tails wagging and leashes dragging!”
“Thank you so much for taking good care of our sweet pup Calvin so last minute ! We appreciate all the pictures/updates and could tell he was happy and well taken care of! We will certainly book again in the future!”
“Lovely family! Monica and her son were so kind and patient with Kevin. Our initial meet-and-greet ended quickly because Kevin didn’t seem to get along with one of their dogs at first, but Monica’s son encouraged us to come back and give the dogs more time to get comfortable with each other. I really appreciated that, because Kevin ended up having a great stay based on the photos and updates I received. I’m very happy with the care they gave him, especially since they were able to take him last minute. Thank you again!”
“Christal was quick to respond and very communicative while my pup was with her family! Lots of love and cuddles were given and my pup came home tired and happy! I hope we can board with Christal again!”
“Many thanks to Jeanette for giving our Cowboy so much TLC when she kept him last week! He is always tuckered out from play and socializing with his 4- legged friends! Anyone needing a great sitter for your pup, Jeanette is the best!”
“Celeste is the best. I had an unexpected delayed flight, and thankfully, Celeste was able to watch my dog longer than I had planned. I was updated regularly with pictures while on vacation that made my day. I knew my dog was in safe hands so I could enjoy my vacation. I definitely will use Celeste again.”
“Hunter was amazing. She was so accommodating and my little Kirby seemed to have a great time. She sent pictures and shared funny stories about him. I would absolutely use her again.”
“Deborah was great- we did a meet and greet so I got to see the place and she took notes on anything important for their care. While they stayed with her she sent updates and pics and they seemed to have a great time with her! She’s also got a doggy door so pups can come/go as they please to play outside in the fenced backyard”
“Dakota loved his stay at Michaela's! She was very caring and knowledgeable about dogs. She sent us pictures while away and kept in contact. He was one happy dog when we dropped him off and picked him back up. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you! ?”

“Averi was amazing! She took such good care of our fur babies. She spoiled them with cat tv and lots of wet food. We would love to use her again - Highly recommend!”
About: I am a dog lover and empath with 2 rescue pitbulls of my own. They’re favorite cousin is a chihuahua. I’ve loved and taken care of large and small dogs for most of my life. I’m a true introverted home-body. I work from home and so my availability is very flexible. I generally only leave the home for a few hours at a time and/or for short evening/weekend socializing I’m very sensitive to a dog’s mood and natural anxieties and so I don’t take unnecessary risks. Any boarded pets would have their own private bedroom and will be kept separate even for potty breaks in my fenced yard.
“Rachel did an amazing job watching our two cats while on our honeymoon! She sent pictures so fast after every visit and was quick to respond to any messages or questions we had. I recommend her 100% and would definitely use her again! I could tell she took the time to play with and love on our cats, and they look very happy in every picture!”
“Minh is incredible and goes above and beyond every time! Thank you so much for the wonderful care you provide both my cats and for being so kind and conscientious with them and my home!”
“Chelsea was wonderful with my cat and made my stay away from my furry family member less stressful. Chelsea is so caring and loving, my cat immediately loved her. I will book again with Chelsea in the near future.”
“We were so happy to have Kristin watch our cats for a longer trip. They absolutely loved her visits and adore her! She was prompt, communicative, and we are so lucky to have her! Thank you Kristin!”
“Sarah was the perfect drop in cat sitter! She communicates very well and easily understood all provided instructions and did an amazing job! Will definitely be using her services in the future!”
“Miesha was the best! She gave me plenty of thorough updates and took lots of pictures, and went above and beyond to not only take care of the animals but my personal property as well. She even brought her own printed reports to log details like how much the babies ate and drank. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone and will definitely be asking for her help again in the future!”
“Nataly did a great job with caring for JT. She did everything as instructed, even while it was a slight late notice. She did a great job in allowing JT to feel comfortable as he is pretty shy boy and it takes him time to warm up to others. I would highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies if you ever need someone to drop by and give them some company.”
“This was my first time leaving my cat for more than 48 hours, so I was extremely nervous to say the least. Mackenzie did such a great job at communicating with me, sending photos and detailed updates. It really put me at ease and allowed me to enjoy my vacation without feeling extremely guilty the entire time. The best part was, my cat actually liked her. He doesn't play with just anyone and the fact he looked forward to seeing her and interacting with her was such a relief. Will definitely have Mackenzie back!”
“Annemarie was absolutely amazing! I fully trusted her to take care of our cat, Eloise, while we were out of the country. She kept us updated along the way and kept our house taken care of. We would love to hire her again!!!”
“We've had Joann take care of our pets several times now. She feels like family at this point! We're so happy to have her care for our pets! She does a great job and with such care!”
“Nadezhda was an absolute angel! She has watched my little Sebastian a few times and everytime she has been so amazing. Great communication- always sends pics of my sweet boy and his food. She even went by my apt to check and see if my wet food had been delivered and unboxed and put in my fridge! She is so easy to work with and so kind. I would recommend her 10/10 to anyone!”
“Shin was able to check on my blind kitten on last minute’s notice relieving a lot of stress for me (and Zeus!). Appreciated the communication throughout the process and how happy Zeus seems in the pictures!! Will definitely be booking again”
“Michaela is one of the best Rover’s I have ever had. She is so genuine, responsive, attentive, understanding, etc!!!! I have unfortunately had to cancel last minute and she never seems upset or bothered by the circumstances. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Michaela for being so sweet to our fur babies!!!”

About: I raised my Shih Tzu from 3 months up until I lost him to kidney disease on 9/11/2024. I walked him on a regular basis except rainy days (he hated getting wet lol), he was potty trained and free to roam the house while I was not home. Everyone ( family, friends, neighbors) knew how much I loved and cared for him. When he was in his last days from kidney failure, I stayed by his side until the end. I kept his routine the same. I pushed him in his stroller when he could not walk anymore. Administered him an IV daily to keep him hydrated when he barely ate and drank. I laid with him and held him until he let me know it was time for him to go to that Rainbow Bridge. As a newly retired person, I have plenty of time to give your furry friend(s) all the love, walks, and attention they need and deserve. Whether in my home or a clients, I provide a comfortable environment with meals, walks, playtime and companionship. I follow their routines as instructed to keep them happy and comfortable.
“Olga was wonderful! Her sweet little girl got along great with my small dogs. She was very attentive and provided regular pupdates. My dogs loved staying with her and we will definitely be using her again very soon!”
About: I am a teacher and someone who truly loves animals. Caring for pets brings me a lot of joy, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are with me. Because of my work schedule, my availability is mainly on weekends. On weekdays, I can receive and drop off pets after 5 pm. During the day (8:30 am to 4:30 pm), I am at work, so pets would have a calm, quiet space at home during those hours. I always aim to create a warm, responsible, and caring environment where every dog feels at ease and well taken care of. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher, I have a structured schedule during the weekdays, which allows me to plan ahead and provide consistent care. In the mornings, I can take dogs out for a walk, feeding, and some playtime before starting my day. After work, I dedicate time in the afternoon and evening for walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I’m also available on weekends, where I have more flexibility to spend extra time with pets, including longer walks, playtime, and companionship. During the summer, I have significantly more availability, which makes it a perfect time for vacation bookings. You can plan your trips in advance knowing your pet will receive dedicated care and attention. I am very responsible with routines, so I always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any specific instructions from the owner to make sure their pet feels safe and at home. When caring for pets, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they are in my home or in their own environment. In my home, I create a calm and clean space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I give them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision to make sure they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am very respectful of their space and make sure to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I understand that staying in their own home can help pets feel more secure, so I focus on keeping their environment consistent while giving them companionship, care, and attention. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I adjust my care to match their personality whether they are energetic and playful or calm and shy. I am also happy to send regular updates and pictures, so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands 💛
About: With 4 years of hands-on pet care, I’ve worked with dogs of all kinds—from playful pups to rescues needing extra patience and structure. I’ve fostered dogs with fear-based behaviors, low socialization, and leash reactivity, and helped them grow more confident through trust-building, calm leadership, and positive reinforcement. I began basic training with both fosters, working on leash skills, handling, and commands to set them up for success in their forever homes. I also trained my own golden retriever from puppyhood using positive-reinforcement methods and a focus on building a strong, trusting relationship. He’s now a friendly, well-mannered pup who loves to play and welcomes other dogs into our home. I provide a calm, loving home where pups can relax, play, and feel safe. I work from home 2–3 days per week, which means plenty of companionship, potty breaks, and enrichment throughout the day. On the days I work away from home, I’m gone no more than 7 hours—and never overnight. My home is in a walkable area with no elevators and easy access to an off-leash dog park. There’s plenty of space for your pup to feel comfortable, plus a well-socialized golden retriever who loves having a playmate. I keep a clean environment with clear, consistent boundaries inside and on leash, ensuring your pup gets structure, love, and attention that meets their unique needs—whether they’re playful, shy, or somewhere in between. When caring for your pup in your home, I prioritize keeping things consistent and comfortable. I take the time to understand your routines, rules, and preferences so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. Every household—and every dog—is different, and I’m here to support your style of care. Whether that means sticking to a specific walking schedule, reinforcing house rules, or maintaining feeding rituals, I’ll follow your lead to ensure your pup feels safe, secure, and right at home.
“Alisha really is the best. My dog absolutely loves her and her pets. I use her services frequently and have been very very happy and my dog is even happier not having to be alone. I feel confident she is very responsible and truely cares about my dog Hope.”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who has grown up with dogs and truly can’t imagine life without them. Dogs have always been a big part of my family, and they honestly come second only to my son in my heart. I’m currently the proud dog mom of two sweet pups, a Maltipoo and a Cairn Terrier mix, who love meeting new dog friends and having playtime. Because I’m already used to the daily routine of walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of cuddles, caring for dogs comes very naturally to me. I offer a safe, loving environment where your dog will be treated like part of the family. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some company during the day, or a cozy place to stay, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your dog is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I work remotely from home, which allows me to be present with the dogs throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to take regular walk breaks, provide playtime, and make sure your pup gets plenty of attention and care. My home is calm, clean, and dog-friendly. During the day, my two dogs free roam the house. They love lounging on the couch, looking out the window, or hanging out in my office while I work. They’re friendly and used to having a relaxed routine with lots of love and supervision. At night, my dogs sleep safely in their crates as part of their routine. I’m comfortable following whatever sleeping arrangements your dog is used to so they feel as comfortable as possible while staying with me.
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 12 years old and have experience with a variety of breeds, each with their own unique personalities and care needs. My experience includes Siberian Huskies, Chihuahuas, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Labrador Retrievers, and Boxers. Through years of hands-on care, I've become comfortable with daily feeding routines, walks, playtime, exercise, basic grooming, reinforcing good behavior, and providing companionship. I'm attentive to each dog's individual routine and committed to creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment while they're in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide attentive, reliable care while following each pet's unique routine and needs. I have a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with a dedicated sunroom where pets can relax and enjoy a comfortable environment. While I do not have a private yard, I live in a pet-friendly neighborhood with access to walking areas and a nearby dog park, allowing for plenty of exercise, fresh air, and outdoor enrichment. I also have an affectionate Ragdoll cat who is comfortable around other animals and enjoys companionship. I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and welcoming environment where every pet feels comfortable and cared for.
About: Hello, Rover world! My name is Gerardo, and I am the proud human to Elle and Tayter Dot. I am here to find fun playmates for my girls by hosting your pets. Since I'm already a dog parent, I'm already doing the dog routine - feeding, walking, playing, etc. Adding your pup to the routine will be pretty natural as a result. Hubs and I work from home, so we are actively spending time with your dog no matter what! We ask that your pet be housebroken. If they have a crate, we can add that to our routine, though our girls have full reign of the house. (It's their house, I just live in it.) Your pet can expect fresh water, a clean home, a yard to run in, and lots of treats. (Maybe also a weird dog voice...sorry not sorry!) For the safety of all involved, we require a meet and greet as it is our best way to vet how your dog will get along with ours. I do my best to walk the girls more than once a day. We are regulars at various trails and greenways, as well as hanging with other friends and their dogs. My spouse and I are attentive to the needs of our girls, and will treat your dog like one of our own. You can expect your dog to be loved on, with lots of fetch in the yard, snuggles on the couch, and homemade treats for all. We also both work from home so your dog will have human and canine company through their visit.
About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds, large and small, young and elderly, I know each dog or cat has their own unique personalities and sometimes require special care and attention! My goal is to always keep the pet happy and the owners at ease! I work from home, mainly in the mornings and usually take my dog to the dog park daily, or on runs or walks, my family is always active, we love animals and putting them together is such a joy! I make sure each pet that enters our home is taken care of the way they need to be treated, whether that’s a special meal schedule, certain activities a to burn energy during the day or just lots of love and reassurance, each animal is different and needs to be treated as such!
“She was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. My dog loved her and came home happy and tired, which is always a good sign! I felt really comfortable leaving him with her and would definitely book with her again.”
About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I currently own a large dog and am responsible for all aspects of his daily care, including feeding, walking, basic training, grooming, and monitoring his health and behavior. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs as well as calmer or more sensitive ones. I have experience managing leash pulling, reinforcing basic commands, and creating a calm, safe environment both indoors and outdoors. I always prioritize safety, routine, and positive reinforcement. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs, body language, and comfort level, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m reliable, patient, and proactive when it comes to communication and care. I'm currently working from home. So I have plenty of time to play with your dog. I'm available for boarding and day care on weekends and weekday. I have yard and a friendly Bernese Mountain Dog to keep your fur baby company. I will keep the floor clean so that the dogs have enough space to play.
About: I have taken care of energetic dogs since I was 12 and love dealing with animals all shapes and sizes!! Cant wait to care for and spend time with your special friends!! I work remotely from home full time, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the day. I'm available for pet care during mornings, lunch breaks, evenings, and nights. On weekends I am completely free to take care of your pet and am happy to walk them in any kind of weather! I make sure to keep your pets always fed and walked and make sure to go for long walks of runs with them. I spend most of the time walking unless your pet wants to relax indoors!
About: I guarantee your dog will love us and want to come back! We don't just care for your dog, we play with them and treat them like our own. We have experience with day boarding, play dates, dog walking, overnight boarding, and long term boarding up to 6 weeks in length. Your dog will be in our care the entire time. I stay at home with our kids whom I homeschool. My husband works from home. We have a lovable mini labradoodle that loves to play and will make your pup feel at home instantly!

Being a family with children, there is plenty of love to be given.

“This was our first Rover walk for Coug. He can be nervous with new people, and Rachel was patient, kind, and understanding of his personality. She communicated well and made me feel comfortable knowing he was being cared for. I would happily book with Rachel again.”
“Dominique was so wonderful! Angus absolutely loved his daily walks with her. Her clear communication and fun pictures made my day! I cannot wait for Angus to have an opportunity to spend time with Dominique in the future!!”

“Casilya has been a god send. Shes deal with our last minute cancellations and additional requests like a champ. She is flexible whenever we need and has made multiple trips when I accidentally locked her out preventing the walk. She could have gone home and charged us anyways but she didn’t she came back to give my pup a much needed walk after I ran home on lunch to unlock the dog patio.”

About: I’ve loved and taken care of dogs since my childhood. During my high school years, I was at home full-time with our dog, a Westie named Duncan, so I was responsible for feeding and walking him, letting him outside, and playing with him. Since then, I have gained additional experience with house sitting and in-home visits by taking care of friends' and neighbors' dogs. Dogs are such a joy and when I take care of them, I’m committed to making sure they feel happy and loved. I’m currently working full-time hours via two part-time jobs, one being for a church and the other at Jimmy John’s. I have flexible availability outside of my work schedule, and I am able to request breaks so I can stop by to check on your dog. It’s relatively easy for me to adjust my schedule and make time to check on your pets as needed. For in-home visits and care, I promise to be extremely careful and respectful regarding your home. I will do exactly what is required to take care of your pets. I have experience following a schedule for meal time and potty breaks, so I can adhere to any routine you keep for your pets.
“Joann was so great with our dogs! This was our first rover experience and it was so nice to get notes and pictures of our girls from Joann while we were away!”
“Keegan is great! She really cares about the dogs and their personalities. She notices the details about their behavior and knows how best to engage with them. Both times she spent the full 30 or 60 minutes with my dogs. She sent lots of pictures and notes about how things went. Best experience with rover so far.”

About: About Me Hello! I’m a passionate, responsible dog owner with over a decade of experience caring for pups of all ages. I currently have a 5-year-old dog named Cholo, and I frequently pet-sit for friends—handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins. Schedule & Travel Notice I work as a school photographer, which means late summer and fall bring a very dynamic schedule with variable hours and regional travel. Since my off days and travel shifts change weekly on both weekdays and weekends, I update my availability on the app every week to reflect which days I am open for drop-ins, walks, and feedings. I currently work as a seasonal photographer for a school Photography company. At this time, my schedule isn’t concrete. Some weeks are busier than others and some weeks I have to travel. I usually become more available after November and mid December. I’ll update my availability every week as my schedule comes out every Friday night after 9 PM. I’ll make sure your pet is taken out on a nice walk if needed. I will also make sure your dog get a chance to go outside to make sure he can do his business and then maybe play around with him/her for a bit after I’ll double check that he has plenty of food and water. If not, I’ll make sure to fill it up again and before leaving your home, I’ll make sure the door is locked and every gate is closed to secure your dog doesn’t try and get out of your home.
About: I raised my Shih Tzu from 3 months up until I lost him to kidney disease on 9/11/2024. I walked him on a regular basis except rainy days (he hated getting wet lol), he was potty trained and free to roam the house while I was not home. Everyone ( family, friends, neighbors) knew how much I loved and cared for him. When he was in his last days from kidney failure, I stayed by his side until the end. I kept his routine the same. I pushed him in his stroller when he could not walk anymore. Administered him an IV daily to keep him hydrated when he barely ate and drank. I laid with him and held him until he let me know it was time for him to go to that Rainbow Bridge. As a newly retired person, I have plenty of time to give your furry friend(s) all the love, walks, and attention they need and deserve. Whether in my home or a clients, I provide a comfortable environment with meals, walks, playtime and companionship. I follow their routines as instructed to keep them happy and comfortable.
About: I grew up with multiple dogs in the home and loved taking them on walks and doing different types of enrichment. Needless to say not much has changed, I can’t wait to help make your pets life better and yours easier! I am currently an overnight baker so early morning walks are no problem! My sleep schedule is very flexible so accommodation during the day won’t be a problem either. While I won’t be hosting any animals in my home, communication, following rules and being on time are very important to me. I can’t wait to learn all about your animals!
About: I've had dogs my entire life and truly believe they make an incredible impact in people's lives. I have 2 dogs of my own and have provided successful doggy daycare, overnight stays and dog walking for a while now. I have two fenced in areas in the backyard with doggy pools, splash pads and toys. There's also have plenty of indoor comfy areas for dogs to relax. I am also a nanny so I'm most always available during the day and evenings. Depending on the days I can be very flexible with services needed. With two fenced in areas in our backyard, we are able to allow dogs to have plenty of space to roam freely and play outside, with a security camera that monitors at all times.
About: With 4 years of hands-on pet care, I’ve worked with dogs of all kinds—from playful pups to rescues needing extra patience and structure. I’ve fostered dogs with fear-based behaviors, low socialization, and leash reactivity, and helped them grow more confident through trust-building, calm leadership, and positive reinforcement. I began basic training with both fosters, working on leash skills, handling, and commands to set them up for success in their forever homes. I also trained my own golden retriever from puppyhood using positive-reinforcement methods and a focus on building a strong, trusting relationship. He’s now a friendly, well-mannered pup who loves to play and welcomes other dogs into our home. I provide a calm, loving home where pups can relax, play, and feel safe. I work from home 2–3 days per week, which means plenty of companionship, potty breaks, and enrichment throughout the day. On the days I work away from home, I’m gone no more than 7 hours—and never overnight. My home is in a walkable area with no elevators and easy access to an off-leash dog park. There’s plenty of space for your pup to feel comfortable, plus a well-socialized golden retriever who loves having a playmate. I keep a clean environment with clear, consistent boundaries inside and on leash, ensuring your pup gets structure, love, and attention that meets their unique needs—whether they’re playful, shy, or somewhere in between. When caring for your pup in your home, I prioritize keeping things consistent and comfortable. I take the time to understand your routines, rules, and preferences so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. Every household—and every dog—is different, and I’m here to support your style of care. Whether that means sticking to a specific walking schedule, reinforcing house rules, or maintaining feeding rituals, I’ll follow your lead to ensure your pup feels safe, secure, and right at home.
About: I’ve raised five rescue dogs and two rescue cats over the years. I currently have two pups: my Lola, a working breed with many VERY important jobs that the future of this country depends on (if you ask her) and Linus, my funemployed couch potato. My dogs are my life and they’re spoiled for it is their God-given right. I extend that same God-given right to every pet I care for :) They deserve the best in life! They’ll get as much walking, snuggling, fetch, or enrichment if they need their minds kept busy. I also sing opera and jazz to them but will stop if they tell me to 🙂↕️ I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs: high energy herding/working breeds, snuggly companion breeds, 70 lb lapdogs, dogs with separation anxiety, dogs with eccentricities that we don’t judge - this is a safe space. I’ve watched so many dogs that make me crack up with their antics. I’m also a big cat lover. I have experience with social cats who need to help out when I’m doing yoga or cooking or just want to snuggle and watch movies. I also have experience with divas and independent cats who lurk and come out when and if they feel like it. I know it can be tough when you’re away from your pets, so I do everything I can to keep their routines consistent and comforting. On the first day of a house sit, I’ll usually work a half day so I can spend extra time helping them settle in or get their new person excitement out. After that, I work a flexible 9-5ish from your home, so they’ll have plenty of company throughout the day. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I leave to walk my dogs and run errands but aside from that I’m with your pets. I prefer at least a couple days notice but can occasionally do last minute so don’t be afraid to ask! I’m comfortable pet sitting at your home and will follow the routine your pet is used to. Unfortunately, I can’t offer boarding at my house.

About: My name is Grace and I am 25 years old. I graduated N.C. State University, majoring in Psychology and Biology. I am currently finishing grad school for Occupational Therapy. I have always loved all animals growing up and have been pet sitting since around 10 years old. I have done various sorts of petsitting from weeks of overnight stays to just swinging by the house to play with the dogs and take them out/feed them. I am super flexible and will work with your needs! I have many years of babysitting under my belt too, as I am very responsible and will never let you down. I am currently am studying for my boards so I have plenty of flexibility around times, days, etc. so just let me know what you need and I will accommodate! I also volunteer at the animal shelter, so I have a lot of experience with different kind of dogs. Your pups will be loved, cared for and pampered when I watch them. I am reliable and just have a genuine love for animals, especially dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your animals :) I currently am studying for my exam in October so I am home most of the day and have plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the week and weekends. My two dogs listed on my profile don’t live with me (they live with my parents), so I have no pets at home. I love to spend time with all pups and it’s very important to me that your dogs get the care that you would get from yourselves! I treat all dogs as my own and love to spoil them.
“Kayla is amazing! She was able to accommodate us very last minute. Kayla & family were absolutely wonderful with our pup! From the very beginning, communication was clear and prompt, which made us feel at ease leaving our dog in their care. They followed all instructions carefully, gave regular updates with photos, and went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable, happy, and well-exercised. It was clear how much they genuinely love animals. We came home to a relaxed & happy pup. We couldn’t ask for a person(family) to take care of our fur baby. We definitely recommend Kayla. -Carina”
“This was my first rover experience in Charlotte. Linda was great with my dog Riggins! She sent tons of pictures and updates. Riggins had a great time with her! She even accommodated me when my flight was canceled which gave me such peace of mind! Will def book with her again!”
“Diamond is such a phenomenal sitter! She had a birthday party for one of my pups complete with pictures, treats, gifts, and a party hat! I know my pups feel comfortable with her because when we arrive they run directly to the door with tails wagging and leashes dragging!”
“Celeste is the best. I had an unexpected delayed flight, and thankfully, Celeste was able to watch my dog longer than I had planned. I was updated regularly with pictures while on vacation that made my day. I knew my dog was in safe hands so I could enjoy my vacation. I definitely will use Celeste again.”
“Hunter was amazing. She was so accommodating and my little Kirby seemed to have a great time. She sent pictures and shared funny stories about him. I would absolutely use her again.”
“Deborah was great- we did a meet and greet so I got to see the place and she took notes on anything important for their care. While they stayed with her she sent updates and pics and they seemed to have a great time with her! She’s also got a doggy door so pups can come/go as they please to play outside in the fenced backyard”
“Dakota loved his stay at Michaela's! She was very caring and knowledgeable about dogs. She sent us pictures while away and kept in contact. He was one happy dog when we dropped him off and picked him back up. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you! ?”
“Debra was the sweetest. She took care of my babies like her own and constantly updated me with pictures and videos. Will definitely choose her again for the next boarding 🫶🏻🫶🏻”
“Wes was great. He met us for a meet and greet, even for a short notice stay. The weather wasn’t great while we were away, and he made sure to still find windows to get our pup out and exercised! We’ll reach out again when we need help with our pup.”
“Amazing sitter! Got a lot of updates which really eased my anxieties about leaving my puppy. She was super kind and made sure that I knew she was ok throughout my whole trip. She went above and beyond by brushing her and walking her multiple times a day. If you’re looking for a sitter I would recommend her any day.”
“I can’t thank Torrey and her husband enough for taking such great care of Dev (my newly adopted shelter pup!). I got plenty of photos, videos, and updates while on my trip, which really helped ease my mind. You could easily tell that Dev was having a blast the entire time.”
“We feel so blessed to have found Daniel. He was so kind and caring towards my Paulie! We will try and book him again whenever he’s available. Thank you Daniel for being so awesome.”
“Rue had an amazing time playing with Gerardo's 2 dogs in their fenced-in backyard. She got to go on lots of walks and even to dog parks. Gerardo and his family seem to be so loving and engaging with the dogs, and I know our pup can't wait to get back. We were particularly impressed with the level of communication with us. We got great daily updates with lots of pictures.”
