Charles was great with my high energy girl. She had a great fenced in yard to wander and a convenient dog door as well. She got along great with his dog Pippa. Charles was also very accommodating and kind enough to pick her up and drop her off while I had my car in the shop. I would definitely use Charles as a sitter again!

At our meet and greet, I knew Karen was the one whom we could leave our dog, Cocoa, with and know she's in good hands. We received daily updates on Cocoa. In no time, Cocoa warmed up to her furball friends and Karen. I highly recommend Karen if you're looking for someone to dog sit your dog.

Susan and her family are simply the best. They provided excellent care for our dogs. We have tried all the other 5 star options and have always been disappointed with the result. Our dogs looked better after staying with Susan than they did when we dropped them off. Susan’s communication is also second to none. She will keep you updated daily with photos and videos. We can finally say that we have found a safe, reliable and loving option for boarding our dogs. We cannot thank Susan and her family enough for taking such great care of our dogs. She will always be our go to from now on.

Could not recommended Laura enough! She did an amazing job with Ebeneezer and even though we were worried about his anxiety…he felt right at home with her! She constantly provided updates and pictures to let us know how he was doing. Plus she responded quickly to any texts we sent! Would definitely use her services again in the future 💜

If you have a dog with needs, or just a dog you love, I would highly recommend Rachel and Donald to you! It was such a blessing to go on vacation and not worry about my pet! My dog is old, blind and deaf, so I do worry when I go on vacation. If I am not near, he gets very anxious. And it is hard for him to navigate a new place. But after our meet and greet, my own anxiety began to leave. Rachel and Donald sent more than one daily update with pictures. For once, I was not in a hurry to get back home! When I picked him up, he acted like he would have been fine to stay longer. I could tell they loved on and cared for my dog as well as I do. I will definitely use Rachel and Donald every time I go out of town. Again, if you have a dog with needs, or just a dog you love, I would highly recommend Rachel and Donald to you.

I left my German Shepherd Beagle Harbour and unfixed Pitbull Ace with Natalie for 4 days and 3 nights. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had. Upon drop off, she met me right at my vehicle and helped get the boys, their crates, and bags inside. Upon pick up, she did the exact same. Also, to my surprise, both the boys had been bathed and wearing the cutest bandannas. She sent lots of photos and video updates throughout their stay and they always look like they were having a blast. She even let them cuddle in bed with her at night. Definitely going to book with Natalie over and over again!!!

They took care of her without a problem! My pups were so excited to see them, as soon as I opened the door of the car, they jumped out and headed straight into their house!

Amy took care of my 5 year old dachshund (Molly) for 6 days. My family absolutely loves Molly and we had not been away from her in about 3 years. It was really hard to leave her but Amy sent me updates and pictures. She never acted like I was bothering her when I would ask for an extra update. Molly is not just a dog to my family, she is our baby, and I will not hesitate to leave her with Amy again if we are unable to take her on vacation with us again.

We weren’t sure how our cat Rose would do with a stranger as we recently took her in after being a feral cat. Christina was wonderful and gave Rose space when she needed it, but also developed trust over the course of 5 days. We got regular reports with many pictures, which was appreciated by us as we missed Rose. I would highly recommend Christina as a cat sitter. Our only criticism would be that compared to our pet sitter in Florida, who had her own business, the price point is high on Rover.

This was our first experience with Rover.com and with Arthur D.; we could not have been more pleased. We had recently and unexpectedly said goodbye to our four-year-old cat after a sudden illness, and we weren’t even sure we would be able to take our planned trip. Arthur went above and beyond, adjusting his schedule on very short notice to accommodate us. Communicating with Arthur through the Rover platform was as easy as replying to a text message. The updates following each visit far exceeded our expectations and included pictures of every pet, along with thoughtful details about their eating, behavior, and overall well-being. Arthur was attentive, dependable, and genuinely kind during a very difficult time for our family. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a compassionate and trustworthy caregiver for their pets.

Chris is amazing!! There was a raging storm when it was time to get our sweet boy out. Chris went way above and beyond. We had some packages that we were not expecting delivered . He brought them in and dried them off. Cleaned up an accident due to the storm by JT. Then dried up a very wet dog. We had a second visit to feed JT dinner and let him out. Chris brought up our trashcan from the curb. Which had flooded and is all uphill. We are so very grateful for the quality of care and thought given.

About: Born into a dog-loving family, Breanna has been surrounded by canine companions since childhood. Now, with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs, she has carved out a reputation as a dedicated and attentive pet sitter. Breanna's first Rover booking in November 2023 marked the start of her professional pet-sitting journey, and she has since welcomed repeat clients, including her own mother's dogs. As a proud dog owner herself, Breanna brings a unique understanding and passion to her house-sitting services, ensuring her four-legged charges receive the utmost care and attention. I'm currently helping my sister potty her two dogs once a day at noon mon-fir. So your babies are not being left alone only for a little bit. And they get my undivided attention they need I love working and spending time with your babies. I would make sure to always walk your baby on a Leash if there is no fenced in backyard or make sure gates are locked if you do and to make sure your baby is taken care of when you're away

I came up to North Carolina to spend the summer in the cooler weather. Being by myself with a senior dog meant that I would have to constantly care for him. I decided to look for somebody that I could trust that was loving and caring and had dog whisperer vibes, especially when it comes to senior dogs. I am lucky to have met Jenny. From the moment of our meet and greet , Shemp , who is usually a high anxiety dog was calm and happy. She updated me with pictures, walked him and gave me the peace of mind to know that my dog will be well cared for, which he was. I will definitely be using Jenny again and would recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect person to care for their pets.

Currently I have Pippa, a 7-year-old Labrador who is allergic to chicken, so I make part of her food. I am home most of the time, except when I host overly-complex board games at the Hickory Library or the Highland Rec Center -- and those sessions are at most 3 hours long. I am home most days, except when I am hosting 3-hour board games at the local library and rec center. Otherwise, I take care of our house and rental properties. I have a large fenced yard -- especially-so since my house sits along North Center Street. I also use carabiners to make sure that gates are locked.

Daily walks, playtime, and feeding can easily be adjusted around my routine, so your pets always get the attention they need. Whether mornings, afternoons, or evenings, I am available to provide consistent and reliable care for your furry family members I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I always make sure to follow the owner’s instructions carefully and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: I've had animals since I was a child and have taken care of them all of my adult life. I have personally fostered over 75 dogs through to their adoptions! I'm a trusted caregiver who can handle animals of all sizes, ages, abilities and temperaments! I love getting to know each animal's personality and how to best take care of them! With several dogs and a cat at home, I am always in pet care mode (and know how important it is to find a trusted sitter). Whether it is a drop-in or a boarding situation, I treat each pet like they are my own. (Also, our cat has his own "wing" of our home so he is not interacting with any visiting dogs.) We have two friendly, large dogs, Tennessee & Tucky who have been foster brothers to over 75 dogs of all sizes and ages. Having fostered so many dogs, I recognize that each animal is unique and I enjoy getting to know their individual personalities and how to best care for them. Whether the animals are in my house or their own, I will follow the owners' instructions and manage expectations so there are as few surprises as possible. I know how worrisome it can be to leave your pet(s) in the care of another, and I pride myself on making sure the animals are taken care of and enjoy themselves.

About: I’ve owned or taken care of dogs for over 50 years. Friends and family are very comfortable calling on me to care for their dogs. Currently, I am fully retired and miss my own little fur baby. I would love to snuggle and care for your dog. My hours are very flexible to suit your needs. I regularly walk dogs out doors and give them much attention. In my neighborhood all dogs will be kept on a leash as per the law.

About: I have nearly 10 years of experience with dogs. For the last 4 years I have been running my own business where I breed health tested and titled AKC Labrador Retrievers. All of my dogs live in my home. They are our “kids” and our entire world revolves around them. Prior to this I managed 2 different boarding/daycare/training facilities, one in Wilmington NC and one in Catawba NC. Due to this experience, I have learned so much about dog behavior, training, proper structure within a household and/or pack of dogs, etc. I take pride in how well behaved my own dogs are as well as how they are able to co-exist with all dogs. My entire life revolves around my dogs and any dogs that stay with us. I am home 24/7 with the occasional hour or two of running errands so you wouldn’t have to worry about your pup(s) being left for hours on end. I always make sure your dog(s) energy/training needs are met - mentally and physically. I also (as long as approved by the you/the owner) am happy to allow play time with our dogs under my supervision! We do require your dog(s) to be up to date on parvo and rabies vaccines or titer testing. We thoroughly clean crates/floors/toys every day to ensure we are keeping a sanitary and sickness free environment.

About: Because I work remotely, pets are rarely left alone for long periods of time. I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and energy levels... from a senior dog who became blind and deaf, which taught me patience and gentle, consistent care, to my current puppy, where I focus on training, routine, exercise, and positive reinforcement for high-energy needs. I also have two cats with very different personalities, so I am very attentive to body language and always respect each pet’s comfort level, allowing them to warm up at their own pace. I work remotely and am home throughout the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship without dogs being left alone for long periods. My mornings usually start with feeding and a walk or outdoor time. Throughout the day, I schedule additional walks, play sessions, and enrichment based on each dog’s energy level and needs. Because I’m home, I can easily adjust my schedule for puppies, senior dogs, or dogs who need extra attention or routine. I make sure routines stay consistent from day to day so dogs feel comfortable, secure, and at home. Dog care isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s part of my everyday life. My goal is always to provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment where dogs feel happy and well cared for. I take safety, trust, and comfort very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine while providing a calm, secure environment. In my home, pets are closely supervised and never left unattended for long periods of time. Because I work remotely, I’m able to be present throughout the day to monitor behavior, provide regular potty breaks, walks, and attention, and ensure pets are comfortable and relaxed. I keep my space clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, and I’m careful to follow any household rules provided by owners. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely. I make sure doors and gates are secure, food and medications are given as directed, and pets receive the level of interaction and exercise they’re used to. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and communicate updates promptly. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where pets feel secure and owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting for about 5 years, starting with walking neighborhood dogs and growing into house sitting and boarding. I’ve also had dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m experienced with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or sticking to their routine, I treat every pet like my own and give them plenty of attention and care! I’m a college student with mostly online coursework, so I have a flexible schedule and am home often. I also care for my two fur babies daily, so pet care is already a big part of my routine! I’m available most days, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel at home. I have two friendly dogs of my own and always make sure introductions are done safely and at a pace that’s comfortable for everyone. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I keep dogs active and engaged with regular walks around my neighborhood and supervised time outside. I always follow your instructions closely, stick to your pet’s routine, and provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away!

About: 🐾 Lifelong Pet Lover | Rescue Dog & Cat Parent I’ve had pets my entire life and truly believe every animal deserves patience, love, and a safe environment. I’m currently a proud pet parent to a 1-year-old German Shepherd/Husky mix whom I rescued from a difficult situation, along with two cats—one of whom I also rescued. I’ve personally crate-trained and potty-trained my dog, worked with her on basic skills and obedience, and helped her become comfortable and well-socialized around both people and other animals. Having rescue pets has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, understanding, and paying attention to each pet’s individual personality and needs. Your pets won’t just be “another booking” to me—I’ll treat them like family. ❤️ 🐾 Flexible Schedule | Plenty of Time for Your Pets My schedule is mainly open and flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my day and give your pets the time and attention they deserve. The only regular time I reserve is Sunday mornings for church. ❤️ 🐾 How I Care for My Pets I keep my dog Reesie on a consistent feeding routine with unlimited fresh water. My cats also have unlimited food and water and are used to self-regulating their eating habits. We spend plenty of time together—whether we’re playing in the backyard, relaxing in the living room, or going on walks around my safe, quiet neighborhood. I believe pets thrive with consistency, attention, exercise, and lots of love. ❤️

About: I’m a dog owner of a 4-year-old German Shepherd with epilepsy and an 8-year-old Beagle. Caring for my Shepherd has given me hands-on experience administering medication on a consistent schedule, monitoring for seizures and staying calm and responsive if one occurs. My dogs are also decently trained, so I’m comfortable reinforcing basic commands and maintaining structure. Having two completely different types of breeds also gives me experience with a different energy level and the attention to both of their different needs. Together they’ve taught me how to balance exercise, rest, mental stimulation, and individualized care for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments. Being a military veteran I am also reliable, and consistent. I have lived with dogs all of my life and love meeting all kinds of different breeds. I’m happy to follow your routines closely, send regular updates and photos, and provide the calm, consistent care that helps dogs feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently on terminal leave from the military and will be starting my graduate program soon, with classes only on Wednesdays and Thursdays. This gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of free time on the other weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m available for sitting, and walks most days and can easily adjust around my class times to provide pet care. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes and temperaments and will follow your routines, medication needs, and any special instructions closely. I can crate when needed and always prioritize supervision, safety, and lots of positive interaction so your pup feels comfortable and well cared for.

Charles was great with my high energy girl. She had a great fenced in yard to wander and a convenient dog door as well. She got along great with his dog Pippa. Charles was also very accommodating and kind enough to pick her up and drop her off while I had my car in the shop. I would definitely use Charles as a sitter again!

Susan and her family are simply the best. They provided excellent care for our dogs. We have tried all the other 5 star options and have always been disappointed with the result. Our dogs looked better after staying with Susan than they did when we dropped them off. Susan’s communication is also second to none. She will keep you updated daily with photos and videos. We can finally say that we have found a safe, reliable and loving option for boarding our dogs. We cannot thank Susan and her family enough for taking such great care of our dogs. She will always be our go to from now on.

Could not recommended Laura enough! She did an amazing job with Ebeneezer and even though we were worried about his anxiety…he felt right at home with her! She constantly provided updates and pictures to let us know how he was doing. Plus she responded quickly to any texts we sent! Would definitely use her services again in the future 💜

Flower enjoyed her weekend with Donald! She was well taken care of and loved while we were gone. Drop off and pick-up were easy! Donald also sent several pictures of Flower while in his care and was easy to get in touch with while we were gone. We appreciated his care of Flower and will definitely use his services in the future!

If you have a dog with needs, or just a dog you love, I would highly recommend Rachel and Donald to you! It was such a blessing to go on vacation and not worry about my pet! My dog is old, blind and deaf, so I do worry when I go on vacation. If I am not near, he gets very anxious. And it is hard for him to navigate a new place. But after our meet and greet, my own anxiety began to leave. Rachel and Donald sent more than one daily update with pictures. For once, I was not in a hurry to get back home! When I picked him up, he acted like he would have been fine to stay longer. I could tell they loved on and cared for my dog as well as I do. I will definitely use Rachel and Donald every time I go out of town. Again, if you have a dog with needs, or just a dog you love, I would highly recommend Rachel and Donald to you.

I left my German Shepherd Beagle Harbour and unfixed Pitbull Ace with Natalie for 4 days and 3 nights. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had. Upon drop off, she met me right at my vehicle and helped get the boys, their crates, and bags inside. Upon pick up, she did the exact same. Also, to my surprise, both the boys had been bathed and wearing the cutest bandannas. She sent lots of photos and video updates throughout their stay and they always look like they were having a blast. She even let them cuddle in bed with her at night. Definitely going to book with Natalie over and over again!!!

Deborah and Ronald are amazing!! Once again they kept my pups, one had just gotten her second knee surgery and had lots of medication to take and is SUPER picky at eating her meds. They took care of her without a problem! My pups were so excited to see them, as soon as I opened the door of the car, they jumped out and headed straight into their house!

About: I’ve owned or taken care of dogs for over 50 years. Friends and family are very comfortable calling on me to care for their dogs. Currently, I am fully retired and miss my own little fur baby. I would love to snuggle and care for your dog. My hours are very flexible to suit your needs. I regularly walk dogs out doors and give them much attention. In my neighborhood all dogs will be kept on a leash as per the law.

Best dog sitter we've ever had. Our dog seemed to love all the other animals and Tanya gave our dog Bummer extra attention. Bummer may have found a second home. Thank you so much!

Ann is wonderful! She sent us daily photos and updates on how our dogs were doing. They had a blast in the doggy pool, made a new friend, and she even let our puppy try sleeping in the bed and it went really well! We will be using Ann in the future.

About: I have 2 dogs of my own currently one is 8 and one is 10. I currently work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. i work 5 days a week less than 40 hours and i’m taking care of animals when im on and off the clock so it seems fitting to become a sitter and walker:) I live in a home with an unfenced 2 acre yard. we have a runner in case the dog isn’t leash or off leash trained.

Cosmo had a few of his happiest days with Jessica, Doug and their family. He bonded with their pups and got to play chase and football on their spacious property. He’s already asking to hang out with Sky and George, their two pups, again! Jessica and Doug went out of their way to keep me updated with pictures. I felt at ease the whole time.

Dawn was amazing! She welcomed our two dogs into her home, allowing them space to become comfortable. Her dog was sweet and was patient with ours. She accommodated them with multiple potty breaks throughout the day and let them enjoy couch snuggles. We would recommend her anytime!

Samantha did a great job boarding and caring for our Labrador Lizzie (8 years old and walks on 3 legs) while we were on vacation. We received pictures each day of Lizzie and she appeared to always be having a good time. I fully trust Samantha with our Lab and I'm definite we will be using her services again in the near future. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give Samantha a 15+... Her communication was great and I always felt Lizzie was well cared for and in safe hands.
