âFantastic service. Beautiful country home with huge yard. Sent us photo updates 4 different times. Will use again any chance we get. Thanks again. Danny was so comfortable and super happy.â

âTook great care of my dog even with all of his allergy needs and his one million preferences. It was great to be able to relax on my work trip knowing he was safe and sound and happy. Thanks!â

âLacie is 5 stars as well as A++!!!! She takes remarkable care of our special needs Havanese , Emma. I canât recommend her enough!! We love Lacie and would trust her with anything we own. Thank you Lacie.â

âWonderful, wonderful care! Ann is such a loving and caring pet sitter. She is thoughtful of each animal and gives her all! So grateful to have found her, and thankful that my dogs were well cared for during their stay!â

âSharon is the kindest and most attentive sitter we could ask for! Our pup clearly loved being there and it really helped us relax on vacation knowing our sweet girl was in good hands.â

âErin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!â

âKaitlyn was fabulous! She sent multiple pictures daily with notes on the various activities with our dog, Abby. The stay was 8 days and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Abby was having a great time! We will be returning to Kaitlyn to care for Abby in the future!!â

âConnie & Her husband were excellent! They know how each dog has a unique personality & work with it. Also, they try to keep dogs in the same size range at the same time so thatâs reassuring as most pet hotels leave them all together. We got to see & meet our pupâs housemates for the weekend & got updates via pics, msg, & videos. We will definitely be booking with them again as Maggie seemed completely content with her stay.â
âDebbie was marvelous! We were a little nervous as our Abbey is a 13 year-old 3-pound chihuahua who is almost blind and Ghirardelli is a 6-pound bouncy poodle. Debbie has four dogs of her own. Two are huge boyzois! No worries-all four of her fur babies were very, very sweet! Debbie cuddled Abbey and our babies slept with her grandson which they absolutely loved!!! We got pics and updates every day. Debbie even waited up for our late flight so that we could get our babies as soon as we got back home. Best puppy B&B ever!!! We will be back, Debbie.â

âAutumn took great care of our two dogs while we were away! She sent us regular updates that showed how well much fun they were having. Lenny and Roger will definitely be back in the future!â

âMichelle was amazing! She took great care of our Van. Sent us daily updates and photos and even made homemade treats. I would definitely recommend anyone to use herâ

âAlexis is a really considerate sitter who took the time to send us a lot of photos of Dory and also take her on a few walks. She has an enclosed yard which was handy and a very comfortable apartment - I have no doubt our dog slept on every cushion within jumping range. Would highly recommend Alexis and will contact her again in the future!â

âMy 9 year old baby loves his first stay with Diane while I had to leave for the weekend!! She kept me updated with texts and pics. And he was so well cared for. Canât wait to bring him back.â

âLauren was great with my spoiled puppy. It was the first time leaving him with anyone. She sent me daily âpupdatesâ and text messages. He had a great time playing with her dogs in the fenced backyard and beautiful screened in porch. I highly recommend her and will be using her again.â


âDuke and I loved Leslie! She was super sweet and made me feel at ease since this was our first Rover experience. She was very professional and prepared. The cute pics of my baby while I was away reinforced to me that Duke was in good hands! He was instantly comfortable with her and made himself right at home! I will definitely recommend Leslie and will use her services again! â


âCarlina was amazing with our Sugar while we went on vacation. She provided lots of pictures and videos which was very heart warming and appreciated. Her communication is the best. Would recommend over and over again.â

âPamela is an excellent dog sitter. We trusted her to take care of our nervous and energetic adolescent pup for 2 weeks while we were traveling out of the country. Pamela took excellent care of our dog and kept us well informed. She took him on long walks multiple times a day. She really loves dogs and cares for them like they are her own.â

âMs. Raquel provided exceptional care for our puppy, Jackson. She offered regular updates with photos and videos during his stay. We were a bit hesitant in using this app, but I'm so glad we did. We are extremely pleased with her services and would rate it higher than five stars if we could.We appreciate her dedication and look forward to utilizing her services again.â

âI cannot recommend Caitlin W. highly enough! From the start, they treated my Stella like family and clearly cared about her safety, comfort, and happiness while I was away. Communication was outstandingâI received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind. Knowing my dog was well cared for let me truly relax. When I returned, she was content, well exercised, and clearly showered with attention and affection. Itâs rare to find someone you can trust completely with a beloved pet, but I have. If youâre looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and attentive who truly loves animals, look no further. I will definitely book again and wholeheartedly recommend them for exceptional pet care!â

âEmily and her husband did a great job. We take our lab with us almost all the time so it wasn't easy to leave her somewhere for multiple days. Emily was great with accommodating a pre-stay meeting, always really good with communication and coordination, kept us regularly updated and assured that Parker was comfortable, happy, getting plenty of attention and activity, etc.. She was flexible with our pick up and always positive. We would definitely recommend and would definitely have Parker stay again.â

âCandace is a very conscientious pet sitter. Our cat, Flick was under considerable stress due to painters painting the interior of the house. She was a new pet sitter for him but she was the cat whisperer and managed to get him out of hiding, fed and meds administered. We will call on Candace again!â

About: I have been around all types of animals and pets my whole life. I don't mind taking care of any type of pet you may have from babys to seniors, cats of all breeds and dogs of all breeds and sizes. Iâm also good with taking care of other domestic pets, exotic pets and farm animals. I only work part time so I have a lot of extra time to care for animals and enjoy being outdoors walking, biking and hiking. I can also just enjoy sitting on the porch with a cat in my lap and a dog at my feet. Iâm not doing in home or boarding at this time and may offer to stay at your house with your pet in the future

About: I have two cats of my own that I love so so much. One is a scarf n barf kitty who has a special diet, then I have my dumpster kitty who eats everything. I've grown up helping pet sit for other people's cats and understand the importance of their need for love too no matter how independent.

âI ended up needing a short-notice, âpanicâ cat check-in option from Rover before a 10-day trip. Lillie responded and communicated promptly. Her response saved my trip, She did a pre-trip visit to check out my 5 fuzzies, then dealt well with them for several food and water refill and social interaction visits. When I need cat sitting services again, I will be going back to Lillie.â
About: I grew up alongside many beloved labradors and English setters, as well as taken care of various other breeds for family and friends. I have always had a soft spot for furry friends, and they often have a soft spot for me too! Iâm on break from college and looking for any opportunity to work with your pets! Let me know what you need and I will deliver! I will take the time to get to know your pet, and allow them to feel comfortable with me. I offer walking and drop in sitting services!
About: I had multiple dogs all of my life and have taken care of horses and barn cats. Love all animals and want to make sure that they are doing amazing while you are away. I have pet sitted on and off over the years for friends and even flew to Las Vegas to petsit for an extended weekend. Iâm currently working full time but can do late night drop ins, walks and am available any time on the weekends. Typically on the weekends I am free/flexible for any time, except the few times Iâm out of town. Before letting pets out in fenced areas I double check gates are closed and latched before letting out. For any pets that are walked I ensure that they are leashed before heading out the door and do not take the leash off until inside with the door closed. I have an escape artist of myself at home so I know what to look for. I can easily place your pet in a crate before leaving if that is necessary.
âIt has been such a pleasure getting to know Brinkley and having her watch my pets. She's an awesome, positive, and very responsible caregiver and I highly recommend her! Thank you Brinkley for going above and beyond to care for my home and animals.â
âAshlee was absolutely wonderful. The notes and photos sent were great. I was able to enjoy my entire vacation knowing she was stopping by checking on my cat. Highly recommend!â

About: Hey there!! I've been around pets my whole life and absolutely LOVE them. We had a dog (dachshund) growing up as well as other animals like Rabbits and Guinea Pigs! I've had cats and dogs throughout my life as well. My bestie dog was named Sadie (corgi/husky mix) who was 17 when I had to let her go to the rainbow bridge March 2021...it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do đ I had her since she was about 1 yr old. She had a pacemaker put in about 2 yrs prior to passing and had a great life but I miss her like crazy. I've been Petsitting a long time but since Sadie passed, it's really helped heal my heart and has truly been a blessing. Most of my clients are from word of mouth over the years but I have this to help others get in touch with me if they need some help! I live in Lake Toxaway but I have jobs anywhere from Highlands, Cashiers, Sapphire, Lake Toxaway to Brevard. I mostly stay at my client's homes but I do bring some dogs to my house if it ends up being a better option. I've done puppy care and senior care as well so that doesn't phase me. I also can do medication or treatments needed. If I'm booked up for in home pet care then I can do drop ins 2x a day for cats đą I can possibly offer that for dogs too but they usually need it 3x a day. So that would all depend on my availability. I work part time caretaking properties/cleaning, and childcare so I'm mostly home! When I do need to leave I'm not gone more then 3-6 hrs, depending on the job. I can travel further if I can move jobs around in my area. I'm very flexible and try to make things work if I can! I currently donât have a fenced in yard but I will walk around my neighborhood and have a decent sized backyard. I treat your babies like they're my own so they get lots of lovin. Sometimes we go to the State Park too! If they like car rides I'll take them to check my mail or little errands.

About: I have taken care of cats since adopting my own two cats at 8 years old. Since then, I have cared for senior kitties, young kittens, and cats in need of various medications. I am comfortable caring for cats with highly specialized care. I understand that many cats can experience stress while their owners are away so I go above and beyond to ensure that they are well cared for.

âShe is the best Iâve ever seen and I recommend her to anyone. Now I know where to take Gil when we go to casino. I love visiting this town-Bryson City. It is great. If u want to get anyone to sit or keep ur dog Michelle and Robbie are the best. I feel safe my dog is happy and having a blast.â

âKaitlyn is a wonderful dog sitter. She sent pictures that showed Abby in various activities throughout the day. It was obvious that Abby enjoyed her time with Kaitlyn, her dog and daughter. She was extremely flexible on the drop-off and pick-up times. This was our first time to use her and she will be our first choice in future bookings. Thank you, Kaitlyn!!â


âWow, Elizabeth has been Amazing! We have not had a better experience with sitters for Chip. Elizabeth and her family are so welcoming and accommodating of our schedule while in NC on vacation. If dogs could talk Iâm sure Chip would share the same sentiments. It is always a great comfort to know your dog is well looked after when you are away from home and they canât be with you.â

About: I love all animals and taking care of them is a dream job. I live in the Franklin NC area year around. I was raised with Boxers and have been a dog momma for 10 rescues. I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.
âMy pups had a great day with Megan. They are nappy after having a yard to run and play. Megan is great about staying in contact with pictures and responsive to my texts. I am already booking future dates of fun.â


About: Iâve always loved caring for dogs, often helping neighbors and friends with their dogs. And I look after my grandpup Whiskey, a husky, whenever my son travels. Your pet will enjoy a calm, steady routine while staying with me. I work fullâtime from home, so theyâll have company throughout the day and plenty of attention. Weâll follow their usual schedule â walks, meals, potty breaks, and any comfort habits they rely on. Evenings are relaxed and cozy with playtime and snuggles. Youâll receive updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. For cats: They settle in easily here and enjoy a quiet, cozy space with lots of gentle attention. Your petâs safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep a steady routine throughout the day so pets know what to expect and feel secure while theyâre with me. I live in a quiet, comfortable home thatâs very petâfriendly and easy for animals to settle into. Since I work from home, your pet will have company throughout the day and wonât be left alone for long stretches. Supervised outdoor time: I donât have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is onâleash and supervised. Iâm mindful of other dogs we may meet on walks and keep interactions calm and controlled.

At times, my grandkitty Kitana may be here, and sheâs calm, gentle, and used to sharing space with visiting pets.

âWe didn't get to meet Alan, but his family was lovely and so sweet. Sounds like Dennis was entertained and busy while he was there. He is extremely tired now that he is back home.â

About: My name is Mac Graf and my husband and I live right outside Hendersonville, NC. I am a certified and licensed athletic trainer and am the Director of Sports Medicine as my full-time job. I work 90% of my job from home, and would love to help take the stress off your work day by allowing your fur family to hangout with me and my family for the day. I take my work seriously whether that be with my patients or with my fur friends. I fostered dogs throughout undergrad to give me more experience and make a change in an animal's life. I ended up adopting one of my foster dogs in 2020 and it was the best decision i've ever made! I rescued another dog in February of 2023, so I have lots of personal dog experience. I understand that having a dog is not just having a pet, but it is another family member. I treat them as such. With my experience as a foster, and being a pet owner myself - I know that I am responsible and loving towards all animals. I would love nothing more than to help take the stress off other dog owners, and help take care of them when needed. Since my job is 90% remote work, I have the flexibility to take my dogs on a walk or play outside in the fenced in area of our home multiple times a day. Throughout the work day they go outside multiple times - usually with a longer walk at the end of my work day. I ask the person I am dog sitting for what they want, and I always accommodate to whatever makes my client feel most comfortable with! We have two baby gates at home, so if we ever need to separate dogs in our home, we have the ability to do so. I always will be respectful of my clients and whatever their wishes are.

About: Iâve had animals all my life. Several have been rescued as strays. I can care for an animal at any stage of life. Iâm happy to walk dogs and snuggle cats.

I can come to your house and meet any needs your animals have. I can walk your dogs, snuggle your cats or just keep your animals company.
âViolet took good care of our dog Rubio while we were gone. We got updates on each visit and walk and she checked in when she had a question. He seemed in good health and spirits when we returned and we wouldnât hesitate to call on Violet again!â


âLouise is obviously a dog person. I appreciated having a meet and greet before hand. My pup felt immediately comfortable with her and so did I. Louise showed up when she said she would, took time for walks and play and my pup and home were in great shape when i got home. I will definitely use her again when in area.â

âAlexis was amazing. She always made sure I had updates and photos everyday. She went above and beyond for my pups and made them feel super comfortable. I will definitely be booking her from now on and recommending her to everyone I know.â
About: I am need of full time employment and have been pet sitting for friends and family for over ten years now. I absolutely love dogs and spending time with them because their love is unconditional. I grew up helping take care of my family's dog for about fourteen years and then helped raise a puppy who is turning ten in October. I enjoy being around dogs and playing with them so I feel like this is going to be the right gig for me. I am very positive and outgoing and love spending time outside. I'm currently unemployed and hoping to pick up as many gigs as I can to get a new routine started as I settled in a new location. I adjust based on the animal's needs. Some dogs I've watched have been incredibly more active and needing of attention than others, as well as cats. It's all about hearing what the owner needs for their pets while they're away to ease any anxiety they have of leaving them.
âLillie has been great working with our new dog Archie. She is very patient and gives great updates, which is very helpful when trying to figure out what behaviors we need to work on with him.â


About: Hello! I have been pet sitting professionally full-time for 6 years. I have fewer repeat customers shown on my Rover profile than some people here because clients usually choose to stop using Rover to save money and work independently with me. I work remotely and am pretty much always home; gardening and hanging with dogs â¤ď¸. I have a half wrap porch with two steps to an enclosed grassy yard. I also go almost daily to the Women's Museum Park to walk my dog (and maybe yours too) where they have access to the river (if you approve, of course). Animals are family and will get copious amounts of doting attention. If they want to play with my dog, she is game! If they don't get along with other dogs there is plenty of separation options as well. I'm also perfectly content to come to you and sit your animals in their home environment. Through the years I've handled all sorts of "animal emergencies" with calm and collected care. I've loved a dog from her puppy days through her geriatric years with unending tenderness and welcome you to entrust your puppy-older dog to my care. Any special needs are no problem. I have administered injected medications. I have given pills successfully and regularly to a Houdini of a dog! If he/she needs it he/she will receive it. I am available evenings, weekends and holidays as well. I often take dogs from multiple households, but you can request no other dogs during your dog's stay. I have a grassy fenced side yard and a half wrap around sunning deck. I do not leave dogs unattended outside, but for the most part they can go in and out all day. I work from home. Occasionally I will need to be away for up to 5hrs at a time, but I will know my schedule when booking. I have a fenced in yard and a 40 lb female terrier mix. She has been dog sitting with me for 7 years now and is adaptable to other dogs' personalities. There is plenty of room for separation if needed as well.

About: I have been dog training for the past 5 years slowly growing my business. I love taking care of animals as it is my passion! Message me to learn more about me and my experience! My typical schedule is 8:30-4:30 with most of my availability in the mornings and evenings! This is the most accurate schedule for the 2026 year. I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a nice neighborhood where I can take your dog for plenty of walks and exercise.
About: I had multiple dogs all of my life and have taken care of horses and barn cats. Love all animals and want to make sure that they are doing amazing while you are away. I have pet sitted on and off over the years for friends and even flew to Las Vegas to petsit for an extended weekend. Iâm currently working full time but can do late night drop ins, walks and am available any time on the weekends. Typically on the weekends I am free/flexible for any time, except the few times Iâm out of town.

About: *Please read profile to see if we will be a good fit* My name is Sara! I'm a dog enthusiast with 20 years experience training, exercising, and caring for dogs. I graduated from Penn Foster Career School's Dog Training Program. I love to help people fulfill their dogs needs! I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work with dogs full time so I'm able to fulfill their daily needs with ease. We walk every day but also go on adventures to the park and lake. I'm Pet CPR and First Aid Trained. I have a completely fenced yard, but dogs are supervised at all times. I have experience with fearful dog safety. Dogs are crated or tethered while driving. Someone is almost always home with the dogs. I also have a Furbo video camera to monitor dogs if I do need to leave for a short time. ***Due to having 2-3 dogs staying with me at times, I only offer meet & greets, pick up, and drop off from my clients homes or curbside drop off anf pick up at my house in my designated "dog lovers only" parking spot. I find this keeps the excitement and stress level down for all dogs staying. If you want to see the accommodations, I can do a video tour with you. I also post videos and pics to my social media so you can see what your dog is up to during there stay.***
âOur dog took to Ashlee like she was family. She was always there when she planned to be and the communication was excellent. We are so grateful for her professional approach and hometown kindness. Well done!â

About: I have owned dogs my entire life with many cats in between. I have had the pleasure of sitting dogs and cats all over the country, including house sits in California, Oregon, Washington, and now North Carolina. I have experience with young puppies, as well as elderly dogs with a plethora of health problems; I also have experience with big dogs like German shepherds, Australian shepherds, and Rottweilers, to teacup Pomeranians, spitz, and many more. I have been told Iâm very high energy and fun, and the animals I have looked after always seem to pick up on that great energy and canât wait to hang out. :) I sell vintage clothing, so being self employed allows me to better accommodate to all the needs of the animals. In our own home, our dog Endo is the King. He gets to enjoy long daily walks amidst the beauty of DuPont forest, swims in the lake behind our house, and nightly fresh cooked meals. My services on house sits include obviously feeding and general care of the animals, as well as promptly following specific dietary regimens and health requirements of every animal. I have cared for very old dogs that needed assistance in bowel movements as well as simple motivation for stubborn dogs that donât like to walk. I have also looked after countless plants and hot tubs, ensuring proper watering and chlorination.
About: My whole life has revolved around my passion and love for animals. From volunteering at my local animal shelter, working at luxury pet resorts to working on a Farm I have had experience with animals of all sizes. In the future I hope to become a certified dog trainer and I am already on my way to it. I am dog and cat CPR certificated. I have years of experience caring for all sizes and age groups of pets. I personally have two dogs that get to go to the park and do training daily. I personally feel like enrichment for animals is one of the most important part of pet care in a day. I strive myself to be able to give all of the animals I take care of mental and physical enrichment daily. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time outside of work to care for my own pets, as well as others pets to my best ability. My main priority for pet care is making sure the pet is safe, happy and healthy. I also want to make sure that pet parents are comfortable with the approaches I use and the incentives given to the animals. I want the pet care I provide to be a happy and mutually beneficial experience for both the animals and the parents.

About: I began working at Radnor Veterinary Hospital as a Boarding Attendant, where I cared for a variety of animals, primarily dogs, and was responsible for feeding, walking, medicating, and monitoring their daily needs. I then worked as a Veterinary Assistant at the Exotic and Small Animal Hospital of PA, where I gained extensive hands-on experience with both small animals and exotic pets. I assisted with appointments, treatments, medications, laboratory work, and monitoring patients before, during, and after procedures. This experience taught me how to recognize changes in an animalâs behavior and health, safely handle animals, and provide attentive care for pets with different needs. I am currently a pre-veterinary student at Clemson University pursuing my passion for becoming a veterinarian. I especially enjoy caring for rabbits and dogs, but honestly just love being around animals. I have classes regularly; however, in the afternoon and later evenings, I am usually free almost every day! I try to be really flexible; however, school does create some constraints. I make sure to locate the nearest vet in case of an emergency, keep a close eye on your pet during the whole time, and record if I see anything unusual.

About: Rescuing dogs â especially puppies â is the most rewarding feeling in life. The most important thing with our furry friends is consistency. If you're stricter with your dog, you need a sitter who'll uphold those rules, not let them slide. I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family for years, and I've learned that it's not about what I want â it's about honoring what the owner has built with their pet. I work with the public in my day job, so patience is second nature to me. Pets are no different. They need someone who can read their energy, stay calm, and meet them where they're at. I also love running and playing with animals. Exercise is huge â but I get that a walk isn't always about distance. Sometimes they need to run. Sometimes they need to stop and smell everything. I match their pace, not mine. I don't know if anything really sets me apart from other sitters. I just genuinely want to be there for the furry family member. My availability in inconsistent due to Firefighting but I will always respond as soon as I'm able too. I understand due to my schedule I won't the best sitter for if you need someone daily, but if you need someone to drop-in, walk your dog, or just need a night out, feel free to leave a message. Currently working for a fire department, schedule can be inconsistent. Great for drop in play times and walks. Days off from fire department can be great for unexpected care. Currently unable to have pets in home due to renting rules. Will make sure to confirm and follow all rules with you before accepting the job.

âI cannot recommend Caitlin W. highly enough! From the start, they treated my Stella like family and clearly cared about her safety, comfort, and happiness while I was away. Communication was outstandingâI received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind. Knowing my dog was well cared for let me truly relax. When I returned, she was content, well exercised, and clearly showered with attention and affection. Itâs rare to find someone you can trust completely with a beloved pet, but I have. If youâre looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and attentive who truly loves animals, look no further. I will definitely book again and wholeheartedly recommend them for exceptional pet care!â

âEmily and her husband did a great job. We take our lab with us almost all the time so it wasn't easy to leave her somewhere for multiple days. Emily was great with accommodating a pre-stay meeting, always really good with communication and coordination, kept us regularly updated and assured that Parker was comfortable, happy, getting plenty of attention and activity, etc.. She was flexible with our pick up and always positive. We would definitely recommend and would definitely have Parker stay again.â

âTara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We werenât sure if heâd be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.â

They have an awesome landscape and keep you updated consistently with videos and pictures. I could not be happier with the experience or the low price that they charged! I recommend them highly to anyone going away for a week, my Reggie came home as happy as Iâve ever seen himâ

âMichaela is wonderful!! She sent photos and updates throughout the day and made sure my dog was always comfortable and safe. Sheâs one of the best sitters Iâve used on Rover.â
