I honestly don’t see myself leaving my dog with anyone else other than Shekenia because she’s just that dang good! I received daily updates and photos which I loveddd! I knew from the moment we met to do the drop off that I made the right choice. Her energy was everything and I knew my baby would be in great hands! 10/10 recommend!! Shekenia is the BEST!”

I will definitely be using Judy again!”

I will definitely be using Mafe again. Highly recommend!”

I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing someone to care for their families most prized fur babies!”
About: I’ve always been a lover of animals. I have my own 2 cats and doggo and they’re my whole world. Before that I had family dogs and cats ever since I was young and they were my favorite thing to see when I came home after a long day. I love to workout with people themselves and animals! It benefits everyone to get up and move throughout the day. Plus dogs should get to experience the world around them too! I’m a stay at home mom, I am expecting our first baby in December. So once the baby is here, I may take a break for a little bit, but I’ll be back! I’m available to walk during typical business hours while my husband is working. I have a two story spacious home with a large fenced in backyard! Our bedroom is on the first floor so even if the dogs are older, they wouldn’t need to go up any stairs. I have a loving dog that will play and run around with them and 2 cats! One is super friendly and will play with them. The other is a little more timid and will most likely just hide.
“I have a problem pup that I didn’t initially know was going to be a problem. Paige did a wonderful job working with my skittish female shepherd, keep her safe and loved until I got back home! She even checked up on my chickens for me while I was gone! 10/10 would recommend.”

About: I sometimes feel like a dog/cat whisper. I have a very calm nature and I think dogs/cats can really pick up on this. I have had animals of my own but could no longer afford the monetary funds it takes to care for dogs and cats. I am a retired active senior citizen and I have a lot of spare time I would love to devote to dog/cat boarding or walking. When I do care for dogs/cats in my home, I try to make sure they feel I care for them and snuggle and hold them, if I am allowed by the animal. I always wait to see if they have sniffed me and that lets me know they are or are not accepting of me.

It is important, since animals are part of my life and always will be, I also dream of one day having the money to be able to give a good life to several animals that currently live in a shelter. I keep them company, I sing to them, I play with them, I walk them, when they sleep in my house I always make them comfortable and I am aware of all their behavior, especially because I know they miss their owners.

About: I’ve cared for animals for years and currently have 6 cats and 1 dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling a variety of personalities and needs. I’ve helped take care of pets for friends and family, including feeding, walking, cleaning up, and giving them attention and playtime. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their routine and make them feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I’m patient, dependable, and always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a long walk, or overnight care, I make sure every pet is treated like my own. I have a very flexible schedule and am available days, nights, and weekends. I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays as needed. I’m reliable and can adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they get consistent care, attention, and exercise.

I enjoy playing, cuddling, giving praise and love. I also like taking dogs for walks or playing in the back yard. Cats are a little harder to play with, but I try with the cat toys, and if that does not work, I will just sit and cuddle.
“Macy did a fantastic job with Daisy! Her communication was excellent, and she kept us informed so we always felt confident that Daisy was happy and well cared for. Macy is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. We highly recommend her!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was little! I've always loved animals and wanted to take on the responsibility of caring for them. Whether this was my next door neighbors or my own, I was always up for the job! I own a mini horse (my 1 year old saint bernard), 1 inside only cat, and 2 outside cats. As for work, I am a fourth grade teacher and have the patience and enthusiasm to be the pet sitter you need. I am currently out for summer break as an elementary teacher. My schedule is very open and flexible. I will be home full time until mid August. Once I go back to work, I will still be able to board animals at my house. However, it is important for them to be crate trained as I plan to have them crated during the day - at least in the beginning. This will more than likely change as I get to know the animal more and how they interact with my animals! It's essential for the animals to feel safe in a place they are unfamiliar with and around animals they do not know! Please know that when I arrive home, they will receive plenty of enrichment through attention, daily walks, and play time with me or other dogs. I have a fenced in backyard that connects to another fenced in yard belonging to my parents and their two dogs. These areas are closed off unless I want the dogs to have some play time. All 3 dogs, including my own, are very sweet and get along well! Dog can be easily crated if needed, I own a large crate with a lot of room. As for your home, I will treat it like it's my own and love your pets like they are my own. Animals provide a nice change from the chaos that goes on in the everyday life of a teacher. I look forward to taking your fur baby on walks, providing enrichment, and cleaning litter boxes or other pet related needs!

Because of that, I’m confident that I would be a great fit for you and your wonderful pet/pets. I am comfortable handling any size pets as well as any breed. I understand how hard it can be to leave your fur baby’s behind whether that be for a couple hours or a couple days I would absolutely love to spend time with and love on your pets!!

“Jen was fantastic! She took our lab Derek for a walk everyday and even trained him how to walk while on a harness. Something we hadn’t been able to do for years! Very accommodating and when we needed her to come by an extra time there was no hesitation to help us out. If you need someone to help out with your dog while you are away , you will not find anther person more caring, loving or helpful with your “Rover” than Jen!”
About: For as long as I could remember I’ve been my family’s go-to pet sitter. Anytime my Grandmother had a doctors appointment or my Aunt and Uncle left town, I would be their first choice. I love animals and caring for them, making them comfortable when their families are gone is not an easy task but easing their anxiety and keeping them comfortable is a very rewarding job. I’ve worked with rover in the past when I was in high school and it was a great experience. I am currently working part time but my schedule is relatively flexible. As far as boarding goes there is and will always be someone at the house caring for the dogs 24/7. I have a large plot of land adjacent to my house for the puppies to play in. I currently have three very friendly small dogs who love to play and make friends.
About: Hey! I’ve been a dog lover since I was a kid and have grown up surrounded by them. At one point, I had four dogs at once, so I’m used to all kinds of energy and personalities! I have three of my own dogs, so I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who genuinely cares. I’m all about making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved whether we’re going for walks, playing, or just relaxing. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting throughout the week, including weekends. I do my best to keep my availability up to date and can often work with short notice. Your dog’s routine is important to me, so I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific care instructions to keep them comfortable and happy. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are in a secure, supervised environment and follow any instructions you provide closely. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, needs, and routine so they feel safe and at ease. In my home, your pup will be treated like family with plenty of attention, care, and a calm environment. I also have my own dog, so I’m experienced in maintaining a safe and positive space for multiple pets. I’m attentive on walks, mindful of surroundings, and committed to building trust with both you and your pet every step of the way.
“Kristen has a wonderful personality and made me and Gye, my 1 year old Akita, feel secure about her services. Nothing but good vibes. Her knowledge of greeting him, and handling him worked very well. She was extremely flexible, responsive and professional in our phone, text and email conversations. She followed the protocol left for her with no problems at all. I highly recommend her and will look to connect with her again. Thanks Kristen!”

About: I’ve been working with animals since I was a kid! My family owns and runs a farm so my entire life has been about taking care of animals needs and making sure they are healthy! I have always had an affinity for all pets no matter how big or small! My #1 priority is making sure they’re taken care of, safe, and loved when their parents are gone! I am currently a senior at WCU, but I live here near Greenville and will be here for the whole summer, holidays, and most weekends! I’m currently self-employed and have a lot of extra time on my hands to help take some time off of yours! I have a very large backyard that is fenced in, all my dogs love to run around in it. My furr baby, Cherry, is crate trained and loves to spend most of her time inside!
About: I've taken care of large and small animals all my life, I grew up taking care of my aunt's horses with her, and I've pet sat and house sat for the past couple of years and have been very successful. I am no longer a college student so my schedule is way more open! I love all animals small or large! I am currently looking for a part-time job, I will always be available on the weekends and I should be available in the mornings and late mornings almost every day. I have a big fenced-in backyard, and I own two friendly dogs and an indoor-outdoor cat that stays away from most people and other dogs who come to visit so there is no worry about him if you're worried about your animal around cats.

“Brian was ABSOLUTELY fantastic! I could not be anymore thankful for finding someone to cat sit for my Rose. He was extremely loving, caring, and attentive to her while making sure she was comfortable and adjusted. I will definitely be reaching out to him again for future visits to watch Rose and recommend him to anyone!”
“Randy is always great and willing to help at any time. At the last minute she even allowed me to add my Grand dogs. She is the best when it come to keeping your fur babies! The boys really enjoyed!”
“She listened to the needs of our dog. Followed instructions we gave her for a dog. Our dog was happy and well cared for. Will definitely use her again. Definitely recommend to my friends or family”
“Judy watched Bennie for a long weekend while I was out of town and this being the first time I’ve left him with someone for that long, I was nervous. But Judy was incredibly sweet and so was her puppy. Bennie was well taken care of and I got lots of pictures. She has a very nice fenced in yard and lets the dogs come and go as they please. I will definitely be using Judy again!”
“Milika was great with my pup. She sent daily pictures and even some videos. She spoiled my pup and you could tell in the videos that he really enjoyed spending time with her. I would recommend her services.”
“Mafe took amazing care of my fur babies! From the photos she sent, my dogs looked so happy, relaxed, and truly at home. It was clear they were receiving so much love and attention. Mafe and her family were exceptionally kind and gentle with them-I honestly think my dogs were a little upset to leave! I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such a caring environment. I will definitely be using Mafe again. Highly recommend!”
“Elaine was very easy to work with and constantly kept me updated with pictures and how they were doing. Zoe got out of the fence on Sunday and she was up front and honest with me about it and did everything to make sure my baby was back safe! I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing someone to care for their families most prized fur babies!”
About: I’ve always been a lover of animals. I have my own 2 cats and doggo and they’re my whole world. Before that I had family dogs and cats ever since I was young and they were my favorite thing to see when I came home after a long day. I love to workout with people themselves and animals! It benefits everyone to get up and move throughout the day. Plus dogs should get to experience the world around them too! I’m a stay at home mom, I am expecting our first baby in December. So once the baby is here, I may take a break for a little bit, but I’ll be back! I’m available to walk during typical business hours while my husband is working. I have a two story spacious home with a large fenced in backyard! Our bedroom is on the first floor so even if the dogs are older, they wouldn’t need to go up any stairs. I have a loving dog that will play and run around with them and 2 cats! One is super friendly and will play with them. The other is a little more timid and will most likely just hide.
“I absolutely loved having Eris stay with her! I would definitely choose her again. She has a wonderful amount of space for the dogs to play and feel comfortable. She followed all of our instructions regarding Eris’s food and medication, which gave us so much peace of mind. I also loved seeing how well her dog and Eris got along.they became great friends! 🥰 I highly recommend her and would definitely trust her with Eris again!”
“Lucky had a great stay with Matt and his family! His first night was a little off but Matt reached out and asked us what our command was to help him go to bed and it worked. After that Lucky got along with the other dogs and fit right in. Matt kept us constantly posted with pictures and updates of how he was doing with us even asking. I will definitely be rebooking with Matt in the future!”
“Karin took amazing care of my Zucchini! This was my first time using Rover so I was naturally nervous to drop my baby off, but I felt better knowing she would have around the clock human care and interaction while I was gone because I know she gets lonely on shorter trips when I've had friends just drop in. Karin assured me Zucchini would be fine, and she was! She sent me updates and pictures daily to let me know how Zucchini was doing. She even went the extra mile and clipped Zucchini's nails for me, which I greatly appreciated because the week up to me leaving had been tough on a personal level and I had planned to clip Zucchini's nails before her Rover stay but never got around to it. Karin is one of the nicest people I've met and best pet mama, she was very flexible with pick up/drop off times and even offered to come pick Zucchini up for me if needed before I left. I definitely plan to use her services again in the future if she will have us. Thank you Karin for making my first Rover experience a great one.”
About: Hi! I’m a proud fur mama to five dogs and caretaker of 17 farm animals, so animals are literally my everyday life. I’ve spent years feeding, exercising, and making sure animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to get to know each one so they feel at home. Whether your pup loves to play, needs a calm companion or just wants belly rubs, I’m happy to provide personalized care and lots of love. I can also send photo and video updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I’m a stay at home wife, homemaker. Taking care of my animals is my daily job. Feeding, bathroom breaks and playing occurs all day long! We live on 1 and a half acres, unfenced. My dogs are trained with no fence. But we do have a 200 square foot fenced in area we call the doggy playpen outside for dogs! Of course on walks leashes are used.
