“Chewie just returned from his second home and was, once again, spoiled!! Lots of photos were sent to allow me to enjoy my vacation knowing he was enjoying his! Thank you to Jill and family for making him feel so special!”
“Mara was great to work with. She was great with Stella and eased our minds leaving our puppy for the first time. We will definitely utilize her again in the future!”
“I love how friendly this entire family is! They take such good care of Rocko and I know he feels all the love and gets all the cuddles while he’s there. I will definitely continue to book Rocko with them!”
“Our two bulldogs had a wonderful stay with Matthew and his family. We received excellent communication, daily photos and knew are pups were being treated with attentive care including lots of walks and play time. We would definitely use Matthew again for pet-sitting services. Thank you so much!”
“Carol was excellent. She catered to our Bichons Frisé ‘s special needs. It was our first time on Rover with Carol and she was amazing. Hope to continue bringing Ellie to Carol when we need her.”
“This was our first experience with Rover.com. We were so lucky we chose Annie S. as Laci's sitter! She left excellent communication (pictures and text) which was so appreciated after being away from our Shih tzu for eight days. Laci got so much attention and had such a great time! I felt as though she was treated with the same care she receives at home. I was extremely comfortable and at ease from the minute I met Annie. I highly recommend her for your animal's care. We will definitely use Annie again in the future.”
“Yevheniia is amazing. My dog is on the needy side & I was really nervous about leaving him. Yevheniia made me feel so at ease & comfortable. She treated Luka like family, letting him on the couch & giving him lots of love. She sent daily updates & pictures which I really appreciated. Thank you so much!”
“Another great experience with Jessica during the holidays. She was very patient and kind with Bagheera while she got reacquainted with the surroundings. I will book Jessica without hesitation when I am out of town again.”
“Kelly was great! She sent me lots of pictures and truly seemed to care about my dogs! She even gave them each a chew toy for them to play with! We would love to take them to Kelly’s again! Thank you!”
“Very nice boarding location. You can tell they really love animals. Our dog moved right in & seemed to enjoy his time there. When I texted to check on our dog Elaine replied immediately & sent pictures.”
“My dog had a great time with Sarah and her family. She was comfortable and there were plenty of other pups to play with. Bonus of Sarah's neighborhood is that no fireworks are allowed!”
“Our dog loved his stay with Kris! She was warm and welcoming and he immediately felt at ease with her. And, he loved her dog too! My husband and I felt very comfortable leaving him there. Kris was great sending us updates and sending us lots of pictures and videos. Our dog got lots of outdoor time and rest time too! We could tell he was well taken care of and he was enjoying his time with Kris. We would definitely love for her to watch our dog again!”
“Second time booking with Lauren. This time our shy dog went right up to her door like it was her second home. Really appreciate how easy communication is with Lauren throughout the whole process.”
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing! She sent daily pictures and videos and the pups were exhausted after being with her. I felt fully confident that my 3 pups were having a great time and were well taken care of while I was out of the country with little cell phone service. Would absolutely recommend!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Alvin’s and would absolutely book with her again! She took such great care of Cayde and kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was obvious from the photos that Cayde was having a great time playing and getting lots of attention. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating with our travel schedule, which we really appreciated since our timeline changed a few times. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and she genuinely treated Cayde like one of her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”
“Heaven sent!! Christal (and her sweet kiddos) were a true blessing. My dog landed in the perfect home while we were vacationing. The communication was prompt, from the moment I requested her services (at 4AM), Christal answered and took in my puppy that same afternoon. He was well cared for, seemed happy with his daily walks and play time. I appreciate the photos I would receive throughout the day. I recommend Christal and will definitely reach out to her when I need a pet sitter. Christal: Thank you SO MUCH! Max sends his love to you and your family!”
“Cassian felt right at home at Katherine‘s house… They were very accommodating. They have a nice big backyard and were very loving towards my pup. I highly recommend them. 🐶”
“This is our second time with Susanne and our baby loves her! She’s amazing and her attention to detail, patience and love for our Teenie is unmatched. Teenie feels the love and it shows in the daily pictures Susanne shares with us.”
“Sheila was truly amazing taking care of Layla! From the very beginning, she was kind, attentive, and treated Layla like her own. She sent photos and updates that kept my mind at ease while I was on vacation, which meant so much to me. Layla seemed super happy being with her, and it was clear she was well cared for the entire time. Sheila is reliable, communicative, and truly goes above and beyond. I’m so grateful for her and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!”
“Laura took amazing care of our dog and kept us updated, which really helped us feel comfortable since it was our first time leaving him in someone else’s care. She was very communicative and we felt she provided excellent care for our dog. We highly recommend her!”

“Her credentials are what drew me to her and from day one (the meet and greet) I knew she’d be the one. Loki my male cat doesn’t warm up to anyone for at least a week of them coming around and he went right to her. He could sense her kind soul. I have never hired a pet sitter before this but I will definitely hire Taryn again. She went above and beyond. I had to have major surgery and was in the hospital for 7 days and it was comforting to know that my cats Stella and Loki were in terrific loving hands. Love Love Love her!!!”
“Gwyn loved Brittany! We really enjoyed her too. She did some light housekeeping as well as keeping with our girl’s routine. She also made a little crochet cat that looked like our cat that Gwyn purrs when playing and cuddling it. Thanks for everything Brittany! You made our first time getting a pet sitter a pleasant experience for everyone.”
“While I was on my honeymoon, Justin did more than a phenomenal job. My husband and I have never used rover before and have a ton of cats (6 inside and 10+ strays we feed). Justin kept me up to date everyday with great photos, told me how they were doing and made sure they ate and we're fine without us haha. If I could ever only recommend one person, it would be Justin. He is absolutely fantastic and if you're looking for someone to take care of your animal while you are gone, Justin is your guy.”
“Chase is my go to cat sitter. He is so loving and takes great care of my kitty when I need to go out of town. My cat even dies the Chase dance when I tell her he is coming over to take care of her. Chase is the Best!!!”
“Kaylee was great! She is very communicative and respectful! My one fur baby was obsessed with her! My other one warms up slowly so she hid most of the time, but Kaylee was patient and let her have her space which I appreciated!!”

About: Apart from caring for my own family's dogs over the years, I helped with my friend's parents dog sitting service in high school. I volunteered with a cat rescue in Greenville, SC for 3 years before moving back to my hometown. My mom calls me her "resident vet", and calls on me for baths, nail trimmings, and care any time her dog has an upset stomach or injury. I admittedly will talk to your pet like they are a human child, and will very well come up with a song about them during their care. I am trustworthy, dependable, (goofy) and committed to giving your pet the best care possible. I look forward to helping make sure your pet is well cared for while you are away! I currently work from home Monday-Friday 11:30am-8pm, and would only be available to provide overnight pet sitting services if I have WiFi and a space to work available in your home! I will not be caring for pets in my home, but I will be respectful and tidy in your home. Each walk and visit will come with a paper log of when your pet ate, how our walk(s) went, and any notable concerns or praise!

“Heather was great! I needed her super last minute and she was a great communicator, very flexible and accommodating. Thank you Heather I’m so grateful I found you! We’ll define back soon for Bailey to play. 😊”
“I have never left my 8-year old beagle, Cody with anyone other than immediate family, and I couldn't have been happier of the way Karlee and her dogs "kept a good eye" on Cody. Karlee got to experience how much of a cuddler Cody is, and it gave him a much-needed opportunity to interact with other dogs, especially dogs that are bigger. Karlee is a very "upbeat" and positive person, and a real dog lover, so I would recommend her to anyone in the Charlotte area.”
“Lady had a wonderful stay! Jessica was very thoughtful and set up a meet-and-greet beforehand, which helped Lady feel comfortable. Lady loved being in her home and did great with her two dogs. When I picked her up, she looked happy and relaxed. She got walks, ate well, and came home settled and slept great that night. I really appreciated the care, communication, and welcoming environment. I would definitely recommend this sitter and would feel comfortable booking again.”

“Great service. Good communication and answered all my questions. Olha provided pictures and videos of my dog during his visit. I forgot to bring a bowl with me but she had bowls for his water and food.”
“Genie loved Sarah’s home and the dogs. Sarah and kids took very good care of Genie, kept me updated on his walks and interactions with the other dogs and was very accommodating to our last minute changes. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I currently have 4 husky pups that are very well socialized and would love more friends to play with. I also work with rescue groups to help pups in need. I have never met a pup I didn’t love! I currently work from home. Your pet will hardly be in a create and will be treated just like one of mine. Many potty breaks throughout the day. I often get on the floor and play so they know I am part of the pack. Toys? Well let’s just say there is not a shortage of toys in the house. Every room we visit has a “toy box”. Treats? No shortage of those here either but, I like to make them earn them - like enforcing commands they already know and rewarding them for going potty. I have almost a half acre with a fully fenced in back yard. Your pet will go out multiple times a day. I also foster and rescue pups so I am very good with socializing new pups with mine. They have previously lived with smaller pups such as a Jack Russell and Yorkie and they loved them to pieces. They also attend “daycare” and “overnight camp” in order to keep them socialized. I also feel like meet and greets are important to ensure your pup(s) interact well with mine. Safety is my number one concern. As I have stated mine are well socialized and I want nothing more to help others socialize theirs as well. Safety is a top priority in my home. I do accept puppies you well you just need to message me separately is we can discuss. My yard is fully fenced in and almost a 1/2 acre. I stop my work day to play fetch it for them for about an hour.
About: We’ve taken care of our friends dogs and have a little guy of our own (Shih tzu). He is a wonderful and loving little guy.

We have a fenced yard and a little guy of our own who’s 2 years old now. He loves to go for walks and play and he loves other dogs.

“Katherine is amazing! We were so nervous to leave our very anxious dog for the first time and Katherine was very comforting and clearly had a ton of experience with dogs. We will most definitely be trusting her with our little doggy again :)”
“Cheryl is the best! So kind, good with our animals, very patient, loving, and organized. Our mini-dach, Ezzie is a spicy sausage dog and Cheryl took time to win her over. We are so thankful to have found her. She’s wonderful!”
“Our doggy daycare shut down suddenly and we were in need of overnight boarding for our little dachshund, Trinco. Amy was available and took great care of him! We did a day of daycare with her one day before to get Trinco more familiar with Amy. She treated him like her own pup, and gave him lots of love and attention. We felt relieved knowing that Amy is very familiar with taking care of dogs and was so caring and understanding of how anxious Trinco was to be around new people/surroundings. Amy was also great at sending us updates and pictures to reassure us that he was doing well! We would definitely work with Amy again!”
“Candice was very sweet with Piper. Piper doesn’t always warm up to just anyone right away, but she definitely gave the approving tail wag when she met her. Candice was also really flexible with our sometimes chaotic schedule when it came to pickups and drop offs. Thanks so much!”

Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: My experience comes from owning my own pets (goats,chickens,ducks,dogs,cats,bunnies,guinea pigs,hamsters) and petsitting (yes, even even horses, pigs, snakes and bugs). In previous years, I fostered for countless animal rescue groups and shelters, whether it was just volunteering or fostering puppies or senior dogs in need. I currently own a pitbull/lab rescue, Cali, who I trust with few people. I completely understand the anxiety when it comes to trusting someone new to watch over your pup. This is why I prioritize communication, forming relationships with both pets and parents, sending frequent updates and paying close attention to details/routines provided to me. After each visit, you can always expect to find water bowls to be clean and full, leashes hung up and everything just as you left it except this time with a happy and tired pup! Please reach out with as many questions as you'd like, I look forward to hearing from you! I have a dog of my own, so pet care is already built into my routine and something I look forward to everyday. I'm also available for last minute needs and do my best to be as flexible as possible as I understand plans can change :) How I care for your pet depends entirely on the instructions you give me, I strive to follow your directions as closely as possible to ensure you, your pet and myself all have a great experience that is as similar as can be to your routine with them. With that being said, each pet I care for is treated as my own and will have my full attention when I am with them.
“My fur babies love going on walks with Taryn and I enjoy receiving their reports and pictures from their walk excursions. She is very friendly and punctual and I am grateful to have found her since I am currently recovering from surgery so unable to give them their daily walks. I would recommend Taryn for any future service for your fur babies 🐶. Thank you”
“I can’t say enough good things about Brittany! She went out of her way—literally—to come walk my dog Lola, and I truly appreciate the extra effort. Lola clearly loved her time with her. The walk went smoothly, and I could tell Lola was happy and well-cared-for. It’s such a relief to know your pet is in good hands. Highly recommend”
“Took such great care of our pup over a weekend. She was very happy and made a new friend! Great communicator, kept me updated throughout, lots of pics. Thank you Justin!”

About: I currently have 12 dogs of all sizes, I love being around dogs and feel confident in my ability to handle any size or breed. I've worked around animals for over 6 years including at a dog grooming salon and animal hospital so I can bathe and brush any pup (or cat) who needs it as well as provide basic medical care needs. I am out of school for the summer so I have plenty of time to visit and love on all of your furry friends. If you are looking for a overnight sitter, please not I am working my student practicum and will be gone 7-9 hours a day Monday-Thursday, but otherwise I will be able to be home with your babies!

About: I’ve had a dog for 8 years now so I know how to read signs and the body language of dogs. I am able to work with dogs of any age and size. I am on summer break so my schedule will be open when I am in town. Can walk dogs at their scheduled times or stop by to feed or let them out when needed. I will care for pets in my client’s homes by making sure I accommodate to the needs of each individual pet and sending you updates and pictures of your pets so that you know they are in good hands.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is I have taken care of cats, kittens, dogs of all sizes, and a bunny, this has lead me to learn different requirements and routines for different pets. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and would be happy to send you regular updates and pictures. I also wouldn’t mind watering plants or doing any extra cleaning up after your pet. I currently go to school on the weekdays from eight to eleven twenty in the morning and on the weekends I am usually free mostly all day.

Most of the families I sit for will write/type directions if there is medications or specific requests. I am unable to board pets in my home, but I will love on your animals from the comfort of their own home.
About: Hi! I’m a 19-year-old nursing student at Lipscomb University who genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like my own. Between having a cat and bunny myself and being the go-to pet sitter in my neighborhood, I’ve spent tons of time caring for pets of all personalities and energy levels. I’ve done overnight stays, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, cuddle sessions, and even handled the “I miss my owner” zoomies and anxiety. Whether your dog wants to play outside for hours or your cat just needs someone calm to hang out nearby, I’m happy to match their vibe. I’m responsible, patient, and will make sure your pets are loved on while you’re away! Pet care fits really naturally into my routine! I currently work part-time mostly evening shifts, which leaves me with flexible mornings, afternoons, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. Since I already care for my own pets daily, spending time with animals is already a big part of my routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I’m very organized with my schedule and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, care, and consistency while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and house rules closely so pets feel safe and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes, keep things clean, and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and care. I also love sending photo updates so owners can feel relaxed knowing their pets are happy and doing well!

I always prioritize pets necessities and desires and have a job that allows me to work remotely while I take care of your pets at the same time! I also own a cat myself who I love and adore lol. I would take your pet for a walk daily to ensure their built up energy is being used as well as give them special play time! However many times your animal takes to use the bathroom I will ensure happens and accommodate any preferences they have and are needed. I love to lay and cuddle with animals so if that’s something your pet loves I’m all for it!

I will treat your fur baby like they are my own, just tell me their daily schedule and I will do my best to keep to that schedule.
About: I’ve had a dog(s) since I was in a crib, they’re my life. I’ve volunteered at vets offices off and on for 3 years and I grew up working horses so I know quite a bit about first aid care! I’m the type of person who notices a dog before I notice a person. I think how people treat animals is a very important personality trait. I’ve always had a huge passion for animals since birth, and pet sitting helps me get my “puppy obsession” out without owning 50 dogs and cats. I’d love to help you feel like your babies are safe and cared for while you’re away! I have experience with animals of all sizes, and energy levels, as well as with behavioral or health issues. I am currently renovating my family home, so I set my own schedule. I am extremely flexible and willing to accommodate any scheduling needs to ensure the best care! I treat others homes as well or better than my own, and I like animals more than most people so I will give your fur babes genuine love and affection.
About: I have 10 plus years of experience caring for friends and neighbors pets, I also have 5 years experience as a dog groomer, so I know how to care for any dog or cat! I am a stay at home mom, so I can easily make sure your baby is taken care of all day long! I am never out of the house for more than 4 hours at a time. I have a lovely fenced in yard, and a covered patio. I have a big open floor plan for the dogs to chill inside as well! Feedings as often as they require, and treats of that’s okay with the pet parent! Also access to water 24/7 I am currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to make sure your fur baby has all the love and attention they need! I have a lovely fenced in yard, I provide water all day long as needed, they will get snuggles from me, and played with all day! My number-one priority is the comfort of your pet.
About: Hello Rover Community! I took a long break from dog walking and sitting due to the birth of my son, but I’m back and ready to get going again for all your amazing pups (that’s should explain my low response rate 😂)! I believe that trust worthy, experienced and proper care for your pet, shouldn’t be a nightmare for your wallet. I would be thrilled to have the honor of taking care of your friendly pooch. I am based in Waxhaw, NC and me and my wife would love to be of service! Reach out for any questions and we look forward to serving you! I work from home so I am available everyday to help take your dog out for their daily walks. I’ll be able to give them plenty of time and attention. While I do live in an apartment, there’s tons of walking space and a Greenway, right across the street where I take my puppy on his daily walks. My apartment is also spacious and your pooch would be in great hands.
About: I love animals! I have worked with dogs for many years at dog shelters and watching my neighbors dogs when I was younger! I am a reliable, trustworthy, and a dog mom myself! My goal is to make your fur baby feel at home when away from home and provide the best care when you are away so you can be worry free, your fur baby will be in good hands with me! I work full time but have flexibility and off Fridays and can accommodate weekend travelers when you can’t travel with the furry babies! I am a very outdoors type of person and will take your dog with me on long walks to get energy out or we can cuddle on the couch if they prefer that too! My home is there home and they are allowed in all furniture🐶 We live in a house with a fenced in yard and I have a pet camera so if your pet is left alone for an hour or two they will be monitored through the camera! My dog will always be separate from yours when no one is home to ensure safety! I will always feed dogs separate as well!
About: Hi! I am Shelby, and my husband is Jason. We are a married couple with two small pups of our own and family dogs of all sizes. I have many years of experience sitting for neighbors, friends, family, and other connections. Additionally, I have volunteer experience with shelters and rescues. I will make sure to treat your babies as well as we treat our own...they are our family. We take multiple walks a day and enjoy a good game of fetch. Our townhouse features a doggie door and fenced yard. Medication can be administered as needed, but please let us know all directions ahead of time. We like to get pictures of our own pups, so please expect pictures of your own unless otherwise requested. We look forward to meeting you and your fur-babies. Your pups are welcome on weekdays and weekends. I am working part time, but only on days when I don't have dogs staying with us. I have a townhome with a fenced yard and a doggie door. I am able to crate your dog if needed, but that is your preference. We also have a baby gate that keeps dogs downstairs with me during the day.

“Heather was a lifesaver for keeping my dog within days of my departure for a vacation. She is a very caring and a sweet lady, who obviously showered my dog with kisses and love. I felt such relief with her keeping my dog. She will love your animal just as hers! So glad to know her and will use her services again! Thanks so much Heather!!!”
“I had the pleasure of working with Nancy at the last minute. She was able to watch our dog(Baby) and I cannot be more happy. Baby is usually anxious around anyone she meets for the first time.

Although it was just for one night, I will definitely be a repeat client. Thank you again, Nancy!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Alvin’s and would absolutely book with her again! She took such great care of Cayde and kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was obvious from the photos that Cayde was having a great time playing and getting lots of attention. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating with our travel schedule, which we really appreciated since our timeline changed a few times. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and she genuinely treated Cayde like one of her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!”

“Clayton was amazing....so trusting, nice and just a natural with dogs! My Aussie Doodle Cashew loved him and his dogs. His large backyard is a great area for the dogs to play in. She is a 9 month puppy and has only boarded at one other place. So we were nervous! Since she sleeps in her crate at home, Clayton let Cashew sleep in his bedroom floor, so she was comfortable! He sents lots of pictures and videos and she had a blast! She came home exhausted! I highly recommend Clayton and his wife, Beth, for pet sitting. We can't wait to take her back there!! Thanks Clayton!”
“Shelby is an excellent boarding hostess. She is patient and kind and she and her 2 dogs made Shadow feel right at home. She sent photos and is an excellent communicator. We will call Shelby again!”
“Our sweet doggies had a great time staying with Christy and her family! We have a German Shepherd mix and a Great Pyrenees that were given tons of love and attention during their whole stay. We really loved the frequent updates and hearing about how much her kids enjoyed spending time with our puppers. We’re looking forward to booking again! :)”
