Highly-rated overnight sitters - Johnstown
“Amy is a an amazing caretaker and pet lover! Her home is an awesome environment for my pup and anyone’s! She has several outdoor spaces. My dog loves to be in the sunshine and he can do that and get in the shade if he’s hot or be inside with her while she works at home. He’s been so loved in her care. Amy followed my follow up communication preference so perfectly. I had a very busy weekend so she sent me a couple updates and answered so quickly when I had time to reach out. Amy is the best and she is so affordable. Book her today! I will definitely be back.”
“Allison and Rick were very accommodating to my boy. Sent me pics and gave me updates. I know he was well taken care of there. I would definitely use them again.”
“Ginia and her family were absolutely wonderful! Bentley has never been left with anyone before and she eased my fears with photos and daily updates. Bentley had a great time, I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and loving environment for their pet!”
“I have been using Roland’s help for the past three years, and it has been a great experience. Every time I go on vacation with my family, I feel at peace knowing my dog is in good hands. Roland always sends pictures and messages to keep me updated. I know my dog well, and I can see in the photos how happy and comfortable she is. She’s playing outside, eating, relaxing on his couch (which she’s not allowed to do at home), or just enjoying time with other dogs. It really feels like a vacation for her too. Roland and his wife are amazing he truly cares and treats her like family.”
“Brad sent me lots of pictures of my pups having fun with Brad, his wife, and their two pups. I think they were having more fun than I was having while I was out of town. I recommend Brad and would definitely use him again!”
“Myra was great with Buddy. She sent us pictures at just the right time. She took him for walks and played ball with him. He was a happy boy. I will definitely use her again!”
“We found an absolute gem when we found Nancy. Our little guy adores her and comes home happy, calm and much loved. We couldn’t ask for more and highly recommend Nancy to care for your pet! 🐶❤️”
“Bethany was great! My usual sitter could not keep Ellie, so I did a meet and greet. Bethany put me at ease immediately. She sent plenty of pictures and kept me informed daily. I would highly recommend her.”
“Jessica is phenomenal. She provides daily updates with photo/video. She really cares for your pup, and I have no worries when we are away. Bailey has loved her stay each time!”
“All I can say is WOW!!! We had to go out of town during all the bad weather and storms. They kept in touch with us before boarding our dog Jake. They had lost power due to the storms but still went ahead and said bring Jake over. Jake and their dog Rosie played in their backyard and went on walks, they sent pictures and videos of the dogs playing and just hanging out. We did not know how Jake would do with a little baby but both were fine. The baby finally warmed up to Jake on last day. All this time and no power. Picked up Jake Sunday morning he was sad to leave but was happy to come home. He is resting after all the excitement of being them. We will definitely use them again in future for boarding and will even explore daycare options with them. Thank you again for all that you did, it was very much appreciated.”
“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.”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”
“Carrie took great care of our pit bull Sox in her home while we were out of town for a couple days! She sent daily updates with pictures and videos to assure us he was doing well. Her whole family gave him much love and treated him like their own. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Couldn't be happier with the care our dog received. They kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was obvious our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. They treated him like one of their own, and we came home to a relaxed, happy pup. It's such a relief to know we have someone we can completely trust. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter, and we'll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Rachel is AMAZING!! This was my first time boarding my pups (one with anxiety) and using Rover. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. 11/10 experience! We did a meet and greet ahead of time, which was super helpful. She has a wonderful setup! A nice, large, fenced-in yard for them to run around and play. The upper deck is perfect for my pups looking out over the yard and resting in the sun. Rachel is a fantastic communicator sending multiple updates, pics and videos throughout the day. With my permission, the dogs were allowed on the couch and provided lots of cuddles and she even slept in the spare room with them (just like home). For my pup with anxiety, she moved slow and gave her time to adjust and settle. My babies got all the play, love and attention they are used to (plus a little more) 😊😊 Also, Rachel was very flexible with me for drop-off and pickup as we were going out of town. My heart is so full knowing my babies were so well cared for! Thank you Rachel!!!”

About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my understanding that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level. I’m a cat owner myself and currently care for two cats with very different needs—one is energetic, playful, and vocal, while the other is shy and prefers quiet, low-stimulation spaces. Because of this, I’m very attentive to reading body language and letting cats interact on their own terms. I prioritize creating a calm, stress-free environment and never force attention. Whether a cat wants playtime, companionship, or simply someone nearby while they nap, I adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and most comfortable. I’m very consistent with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, and general tidiness. I understand how important a clean litter box is for a cat’s health and happiness, and I take pride in keeping litter areas fresh and odor-free. I also pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, or litter habits and communicate any concerns right away. Because I work remotely, I’m able to check in frequently and provide steady, reliable care throughout the day. My goal is always to make cats feel relaxed, respected, and cared for—just like they would at home.

About: I have been working with dogs for 15 years. I started my professional career as a Vet-Tech, then started helping out clients reactive dogs, and now operate a small dog training business. I work remotely so that I can keep a close eye on your dogs. I built 2 luxury dog runs in my garage to provide a calm/safe place for your dogs to relax. As long as everyone gets along they are more than welcome to snuggle with us on the couch. Daily walks, a fenced in yard, and years of dog training experience means your dog is well cared for while you are away. They also leave my home with some new skills or commands.

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’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up surrounded by pups and has always had dogs as part of my family. Currently, I have an Australian Shepherd and a Lab, so I’m very familiar with both high-energy playtime and laid-back cuddle sessions. I’ve also worked at pet boarding facilities, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. From feeding routines to playtime and keeping pups comfortable while their owners are away, I truly understand what it takes to provide safe, loving care. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer reliable daily visits and walks. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’d love to help keep your furry friend happy, active, and well cared for!

About: As a lifelong animal lover, caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's part of my daily life. My family homestead is home to dogs, cats, and a thriving garden, so providing attentive, compassionate care comes naturally to me. When your pet stays with me, they become part of the family. Unlike traditional kennels, pets enjoy a comfortable home environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I have a large fenced area for safe outdoor time and exercise, as well as multiple levels within my home that allow me to accommodate different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pet loves to socialize or prefers a quieter space to relax, I can create an environment where they feel comfortable and secure. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and quirks so their stay feels as close to home as possible. You'll receive regular updates, photos, and communication throughout your pet's stay because I know how important peace of mind is when you're away. My goal is simple: for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, loved, and treated like one of my own. I'm a teacher currently home for the summer, spending my days building our family homestead. Caring for animals is already woven into my daily routine, from tending to our dogs and cats, to working in the garden and enjoying life outdoors. Because I'm home and actively caring for my own animals throughout the day, welcoming boarding pets into my home feels like a natural extension of the life I'm already living. I have a fenced yard, lots of room indoors, and multiple levels to give pets the quiet or fun they desire. I have routines to care for our animals and will be glad to follow whatever your pet is used to!
About: I have over 12 years of experience in dog care, with a strong background in grooming, vet assisting, training, and behavioral work. I’ve completed educational courses through colleges and attended numerous seminars and certification classes to deepen my knowledge. This hands-on experience, combined with formal training, has allowed me to work effectively with dogs of all breeds and temperaments, ensuring they receive the best care and attention. Whether it's grooming, behavior modification, or general wellness, I am dedicated to providing top-quality care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. Pet care is truly the core of my daily routine. My day begins with feeding routines, followed by cleaning my dog training room and conducting morning training sessions or walks. The rest of the day is dedicated to various aspects of animal care, including grooming, training, playtime, feeding, meal prep, and administering medications when needed. I do it all to ensure the well-being of every pet I care for. On weekends, I’m usually at a dog sport trial or competition, or enjoying outdoor activities like hiking and swimming with my pets, or simply relaxing and bonding with them. Pet care is not just a job for me; it's my passion and lifestyle. I provide exceptional care for dogs, whether in my own home or a client’s, by combining my animal medical experience, grooming skills, training expertise, and dog behaviorist background. With my experience in training and behavior modification, I can address a wide range of behavioral issues, ensuring dogs are well-mannered and comfortable in their environment. I am well-versed in administering medications and handling medical needs, ensuring each dog’s health is closely monitored. My grooming experience allows me to maintain their coats, keeping them clean, comfortable, and healthy. Above all, I approach every pet with respect, recognizing their unique needs and preferences. I take pride in being responsible and reliable, offering a safe and loving environment while upholding the highest standards of care.
“Madison was absolutely amazing with Ela! Ela is naturally nervous and shy at first, but Madison was so patient with her, and her sweet dog, Maggie, really helped Ela come out of her shell and make a new friend. It meant so much knowing Ela was comfortable and having fun while we were away. Madison kept us updated regularly with messages and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also accepted our reservation last minute, and we're incredibly grateful for how flexible and accommodating she was throughout the entire stay. She was so friendly, caring, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. I couldn't recommend Madison more, and we will absolutely be booking with her again”
About: I have grown up with animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to goats and horses, so have plentiful experience with all! I love being outdoors and active and already spend most of my free time taking my own dog for walks on the greenway or hikes in the mountains. I am extremely reliable and work from home with a very flexible schedule so am open to all types of pet care! I work from home majority of the time so will have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I’m open to boarding/day care in my own home or available to travel for walks if your pet is more comfortable staying home. In the fall and winter months, I’m home most weekends so would have a lot of opportunity for weekend boarding as well! I have an almost 7 year old fur baby of my own who loves company and getting to play with other dogs. She gets spoiled with multiple walks a day on my work from home days and we have a few dog parks within walking distance that we utilize frequently. I live near downtown Lincolnton so am in a very safe and dog friendly area. If your pet prefers to be the only dog, I would be more than willing to make a couple trips per day to your home for some outdoor time and walks, as my work schedule is extremely flexible. My dog was crate trained as a puppy so I do have experience with that and would be more than willing to help with training during the day if your dog needed midday walks but was still getting comfy in their crate!

About: Hi, my name is Taylor! I am a recent high school graduate who will be attending NC State University in the fall to study Animal Science. I have past experience with pet sitting, often for longer than a week. Along with that, I have over a year of experience shadowing at a local veterinary hospital. I also have experience taking care of my own fur babies at home! I would love to spread love and care to your pets if you’ll have me. Please reach out if interested! I currently work part-time at Chick-fil-a, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your fur babies! I have a flexible and light schedule which allows me to dedicate a lot of my time to the animals around me. When at a client’s home I love to curl up with a good book and a sweet cat. I also enjoy taking pups on walks and playing fetch or tug with them. I am always down to cuddle with any furry friend.
“Sara was awesome. She filled in when our regular sitter was unavailable. She came for a meet and greet. Took nice walks or spent good visit time when it was raining. She left great notes. I knew Piper was well cared for.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Fur babies have a special place in my heart and I will take the best of care of any kind of fur baby. I currently have a two golden doodles(<1), an Australian Shepard(2), miniature Aussie(12) and a cat(13) I rescued from the humane society. I currently work 3 days a week and attend college. I have a pretty flexible schedule other than the days I work from 9 to 6:30. I am available on those days before 9 and after 6:30. I live in a home with a fenced in yard and three large dogs. The dogs typically spend the day with us but when we aren’t home we put them outside in a kennel.
About: I have over 12 years of experience in dog care, with a strong background in grooming, vet assisting, training, and behavioral work. I’ve completed educational courses through colleges and attended numerous seminars and certification classes to deepen my knowledge. This hands-on experience, combined with formal training, has allowed me to work effectively with dogs of all breeds and temperaments, ensuring they receive the best care and attention. Whether it's grooming, behavior modification, or general wellness, I am dedicated to providing top-quality care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. Pet care is truly the core of my daily routine. My day begins with feeding routines, followed by cleaning my dog training room and conducting morning training sessions or walks. The rest of the day is dedicated to various aspects of animal care, including grooming, training, playtime, feeding, meal prep, and administering medications when needed. I do it all to ensure the well-being of every pet I care for. On weekends, I’m usually at a dog sport trial or competition, or enjoying outdoor activities like hiking and swimming with my pets, or simply relaxing and bonding with them. Pet care is not just a job for me; it's my passion and lifestyle. I provide exceptional care for dogs, whether in my own home or a client’s, by combining my animal medical experience, grooming skills, training expertise, and dog behaviorist background. With my experience in training and behavior modification, I can address a wide range of behavioral issues, ensuring dogs are well-mannered and comfortable in their environment. I am well-versed in administering medications and handling medical needs, ensuring each dog’s health is closely monitored. My grooming experience allows me to maintain their coats, keeping them clean, comfortable, and healthy. Above all, I approach every pet with respect, recognizing their unique needs and preferences. I take pride in being responsible and reliable, offering a safe and loving environment while upholding the highest standards of care.

About: I am an experienced animal lover who would love to provide care and company to your dog(s), cat(s) or other furry/scaley/feathery family members! I have 3 fur babies of my own. I have 2 dogs, 1 chocolate lab mix and 1 medium terrier mix. My dogs range from a high energy & fetch obsessed to a senior who just wants to take a leisurely stroll and get some cuddles. So, I'm prepared for it all :) I also have a cat that basically runs the show, especially my sleep schedule. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters over the years. Most commonly performed dog walking, feeding, kennel clean up, and dog interactions. I'd love to come sit and play with your pet or take them on a nice walk, whatever you (and your pet) prefer!

About: Hi im Victoria, Your pet is in experienced hands. I’m a fully insured, Pet CPR certified, certified dog trainer and professional groomer with previous experience as a veterinary assistant, giving me a well-rounded background in pet care. Because of this experience, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and needs—from puppies who need structure and basic training to senior pets who require extra patience, mobility support, or medication schedules. I’m also experienced administering medications and monitoring pets for any health or behavior changes. My goal is to provide safe, knowledgeable, and reliable care so your pets feel comfortable, maintain their routine, and receive the attention they deserve while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I work professionally with dogs and have built my schedule around caring for animals, so providing reliable, attentive care fits naturally into my day. Because of my background as a certified dog trainer and professional groomer, I’m used to working with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs throughout the week. Whether it’s walks, training reinforcement, playtime, medication schedules, or simply making sure pets feel comfortable and secure, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’m very organized with scheduling and communication, which allows me to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. 🐾 When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I follow your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest, and I make sure they receive plenty of attention and mental stimulation. With my background as a fully insured certified dog trainer, professional groomer, and former veterinary assistant, I’m able to provide a higher level of care than a typical sitter. I’m comfortable working with puppies who need structure and training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, mobility support, or medication. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while maintaining the same level of care they receive from you at home. 🐾

About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was a kid and I’ve been dog/house sitting since I was 16. If I dog sit I normally like to leave the house looking better than when I got there. Coming home to a cleaner house is always nice. I love animals more than you will ever know. I have such a strong passion, love, and interest for all animals. That is why I want to own my own animal rescue once I get out of college. If you leave your pets with me then just know that they will be loved unconditionally and taken care of beyond expectation. I hope you can trust me with your loved ones🐾 I am currently a college student and I have class on Monday and Tuesday from 11am to 2:30pm. The rest of my week is free besides church on Sundays and Wednesdays. I have a huge back yard with 8 dogs and two cats. Unfortunately some of my dogs were not socialized enough and they are not that friendly with other dogs. That is why I would rather take care of your pets from your home. I have also dog sat enough to know that when you bring a dog into a new environment they can become extremely stressed and anxious and they might not eat for days or until there owner comes home. That is why I feel it is better and easier to watch and care for your animals from your home. It will be easier for them and me.

“Allison and Rick were very accommodating to my boy. Sent me pics and gave me updates. I know he was well taken care of there. I would definitely use them again.”
“Ginia and her family were absolutely wonderful! Bentley has never been left with anyone before and she eased my fears with photos and daily updates. Bentley had a great time, I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and loving environment for their pet!”
“I have been using Roland’s help for the past three years, and it has been a great experience. Every time I go on vacation with my family, I feel at peace knowing my dog is in good hands. Roland always sends pictures and messages to keep me updated. I know my dog well, and I can see in the photos how happy and comfortable she is. She’s playing outside, eating, relaxing on his couch (which she’s not allowed to do at home), or just enjoying time with other dogs. It really feels like a vacation for her too. Roland and his wife are amazing he truly cares and treats her like family.”
“Bethany was great! My usual sitter could not keep Ellie, so I did a meet and greet. Bethany put me at ease immediately. She sent plenty of pictures and kept me informed daily. I would highly recommend her.”
“Jessica is phenomenal. She provides daily updates with photo/video. She really cares for your pup, and I have no worries when we are away. Bailey has loved her stay each time!”
“All I can say is WOW!!! We had to go out of town during all the bad weather and storms. They kept in touch with us before boarding our dog Jake. They had lost power due to the storms but still went ahead and said bring Jake over. Jake and their dog Rosie played in their backyard and went on walks, they sent pictures and videos of the dogs playing and just hanging out. We did not know how Jake would do with a little baby but both were fine. The baby finally warmed up to Jake on last day. All this time and no power. Picked up Jake Sunday morning he was sad to leave but was happy to come home. He is resting after all the excitement of being them. We will definitely use them again in future for boarding and will even explore daycare options with them. Thank you again for all that you did, it was very much appreciated.”
“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.”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”
“Carrie took great care of our pit bull Sox in her home while we were out of town for a couple days! She sent daily updates with pictures and videos to assure us he was doing well. Her whole family gave him much love and treated him like their own. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Couldn't be happier with the care our dog received. They kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was obvious our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. They treated him like one of their own, and we came home to a relaxed, happy pup. It's such a relief to know we have someone we can completely trust. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter, and we'll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Rachel is AMAZING!! This was my first time boarding my pups (one with anxiety) and using Rover. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. 11/10 experience! We did a meet and greet ahead of time, which was super helpful. She has a wonderful setup! A nice, large, fenced-in yard for them to run around and play. The upper deck is perfect for my pups looking out over the yard and resting in the sun. Rachel is a fantastic communicator sending multiple updates, pics and videos throughout the day. With my permission, the dogs were allowed on the couch and provided lots of cuddles and she even slept in the spare room with them (just like home). For my pup with anxiety, she moved slow and gave her time to adjust and settle. My babies got all the play, love and attention they are used to (plus a little more) 😊😊 Also, Rachel was very flexible with me for drop-off and pickup as we were going out of town. My heart is so full knowing my babies were so well cared for! Thank you Rachel!!!”
“Leigh is the furfect sitter for our boy! She is incredibly flexible and responds to messages right away. Our original pet sitter canceled on the day of our booking, and we had to find someone last minute. We’re so thankful that Leigh replied immediately and was able to help us out. From the moment our boy arrived at her place, he felt comfortable and happy and he didn’t hesitate at all to start playing in her yard, which really showed us what a kind and welcoming person she is. Leigh kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed the schedule we provided perfectly and made sure he got lots of playtime and attention. Knowing that our boy was having fun and being well cared for made us feel completely at ease. We would absolutely book Leigh again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!”
“Madison was amazing with our dogs! She loved them as her own and sent us plenty of pictures while we were on our honeymoon. She was a very sweet person to work with and would definitely recommend her to our friends!”
“Thanks so much for watching my fur babies Charlie and Wyatt! Great updates, easy drop off and pick up, wonderful communication and a kind home away from home for my pups. I highly recommend Brittany and her family and will be coming back in the future when I need to travel out of town. 5 stars all the way!”
