“I can’t say enough great things about Lorna! She provides a wonderful and safe place for our fur babies to stay when we need to be away. She has a great fenced in yard providing plenty of space to run and play. I highly recommend Lorna to anyone looking for a caring and sweet person to care for their animals.”

“Samuel and Erica were great! I got lots of pictures and feedback. Samuel and Erica have Lana well trained as others have stated, and it’s evident. Moose settled in with them pretty quickly. Moose is small and didn’t want to play. They both learned to peacefully co-exist just as Samuel and Erica have experienced with other small pups. I highly recommend them!”

“Sabrina is an incredible dog sitter! She gave my pups so much love and attention and made sure they got plenty of exercise. She even bought them toys, bones, and helped train them. She has a nice fence in yard with an entire dog playground! She also kept me updated and sent lots of pictures and videos. She’s incredibly kind as well.”

“My dog didn’t want to leave, he loved it here so much! We received lots of pictures while we were away, which we loved. We’ll be taking Banjo here again when we go on vacations!”

“Carola is so caring and knowledgeable about all things dog. My dog had a great time and came home relaxed and healthy. The environment is perfect for relaxing inside and playing outside. She loved her bonus siblings and walks. Thank you so much!”

“Amy and Jason are amazing!! Very welcoming!! Prepared; Mochi is part of their family when there, they treat her as one of their own! Could not have asked for more…Mochi returns home very calm and gets back into real life at home quickly. Thank you! If you are hesitant; don’t be!!”

“Cassandra was AMAZING with Boo! She sent me updates and pictures everyday— I could tell my doggy was very happy and safe! Can’t say enough good things about Cassandra. Will definitely be requesting her dog sitting services again… highly recommend! 🫶🫶🫶”

“Very polite and punctual when picking up my fur baby. She communicated very well and sent pictures showing how much fun my baby was having!!! Will definitely be reaching out again when we need another sitter!!”

“I was so happy with Jessica & John they took amazing care of my dog Makeda for the weekend. Even their two daughters treated her with gentle love and lots of snuggles. They were incredibly responsive, sent regular updates with photos, and treated my dog like one of their own. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! Thank you”


“Olivia took such great care of my girl! She made everything super easy and convenient for us. She was attentive to all of Benelli’s needs and she even sent regular updates so that I knew how she was doing. I would absolutely recommend her services!!”

“Hope and her family are animal lovers and it shows. They were flexible about drop off and pickup times and weren't offended when I asked for a meet and greet before leaving our dog.”

“Our dog was well cared for and seemed to have a good time while he was there - working and watching the world go by. Samantha is excellent and we will definitely board Panda with Samantha again. She treated him like he was her own”

“Hannah does a great job of giving our pup lots of love and attention. Luna was definitely a member of the family! ❤️ Lots of pics and daily checkins made me calm about how she was fitting in. Thanks Hannah!”


“Daniella was the best dog sitter ever! She took such good care of my pups that I don’t think they even wanted to come home! She was very conscientious about making sure they had a lot of playtime outside, and basically made them a part of her family while they were there. I got pictures and an update from her every day and just knowing they were so well taken care of was a huge weight lifted off of me. I highly recommend her!”

“Amber was great with Mr B. We were kept in the loop regarding what he was up to with photos and messages and he was a happy pup when we picked him up:) Mr B had a great time with Lukas, Amber’s dog. Thank you Amber :))”

“Lori did a wonderful job watching our dog! She is obviously someone who cares a great deal about the happiness and well-being of the dogs she’s sitting, and that came across right away when I met her for the first time. She kept us updated with pictures and videos to reassure us that our boy was having fun and doing well and was very pleasant and professional at dropoff and pickup.”

“Summer leaves the house in perfect condition. She spend time with my cats so they are well socialized when I get back and treat me like I'd never left. She takes care of plants and even organized the cat food drawer. You could not get a better cat/house sitter.”

“Kayla dropped in on my cat Marbles while I was out of town for a week, the first time I’ve ever been away from her. I was nervous to leave her but Kayla took great care of her. She even went the extra mile and took the trash out when it started getting stinky!! And I know Marbles loved her company. I’d definitely book again!”

“Sydney is amazing!! She helped me out with my puppy very last minute. She always came on time and followed instructions perfectly! Even though my dog gave her some difficulty in the beginning she was patient and quickly made him feel very comfortable with her. She always sent photos and updates with each visit. I highly recommend her! We cannot thank you enough!”

About: My family have always owned at least 4 dogs at a time and growing up it was our responsibility as kids to care for them. We would brush them, walk them, feed them, and bath them. I recently graduated with an MBA from East Tennessee State University and I’m working full time as a marketing manager for Ballad Health Medical Associates. I work 3 in days in the office Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and work 2 days remotely Monday and Friday. My job is 2 minutes from my home so I would be able to check on your dog during lunch or check on them at your place. For this reason I don’t accept house sitting on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday that are more than 10 miles away. They will have my attention at all time. They might get tired of me wanting to play with them. I love being around dogs and will make sure your fury friend is well taken care of and happy
“We are so happy to have found William! He was very responsive from our first meet & greet through the time he spent at our house watching our kitties. The house was clean and in order when we returned home and, most importantly, our cats were well taken care of.”

“Megan and Josh were absolutely amazing house sitters! They took the best care of my girl Khloe, sent me daily photo updates, and left the house way cleaner than it was before. Highly, highly recommend!”

I’m calm, dependable, attentive, and especially good with shy or sensitive cats who need patience and a gentle presence.
About: I have volunteered at an animal rescue sanctuary for 10+ years.

I am looking for something that will fit into that kind of schedule. I have no animals at home. It is safe and a very clean environment. I am the most respectful and will aways listen to what you and your pets need.

About: Experienced dog lover providing safe, personalized care full of play, love, and peace of mind. I treat your pup like family—because that’s exactly what they are. Happy dogs, Relieved parents. Trusted care. I work from home, so your pup gets all-day play, belly rubs, and love. From morning zoomies to afternoon naps, they’re part of my routine—and I wouldn’t have it any other way! My home is your dog’s play-and-snuggle paradise! Either toys, walks, and comfy spots to nap, I make sure every stay is fun, safe, and full of love—so they can’t wait to come back.
“She was amazing! I have a pug and haven't left him with anyone before and was super nervous but she sent me photos and videos very often which was amazing! I think he had a great time and is super tired for a car ride home!”

“Bailey was dropped off early in the morning. This was his first experience with a daycare. Lori quickly took him for a walk after I said "I'll be back." He handled this new experience well. The visit was actually cut short due to a change in scheduling at the VA but when I picked him up, he was happy to see me, but didn't seem upset at all. This is a spoiled little boy and he was as comfortable as could be expected.! Lori was friendly and confident with how she handled things. I will definitely use here services again! Highly recommended.”

“Carola was super accommodating and flexible when we contacted her on short notice to see if she could watch our high energy pup while we went for a hike in the provincial park (no dogs allowed). Drop-off went well and she allowed us to supervise while we introduced our dog to hers. She went above and beyond in caring for him and he was super happy when we picked him up. Would definitely recommend her.”

“Amber did a great job taking care of our 10 lb poodle! She has a very friendly dog of her own and took special care introducing them to one another! Her home is clean, neat and cozy! We did doggy day care she walked Lucky 2 times in four hours! When we found out we’d be late on the pick up, she responded immediately and said no problem! We’ll definitely use her again should our need arise! Thank you Amber!”

About: As a military spouse I have helped care for our dogs and many of our neighbors dogs as well. From large to small, I love dogs of all kinds. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs, and our own dog loves the company of other dogs. I am a mom and am in nursing school, but pet care is the highlight of my day. My schedule is open during weekends during the school semester, and outside of that I'm fulltime at home. I have a fenced in yard and a dog and cat friendly home. I also have children at home, but they are 10 and up. I prefer dogs crated at night, but during the day they are allowed to roam inside or out in the fenced backyard and will be well taken care of with lots of friendly petting in my home.
About: I have taken care of pets of friends and family members for many years and had pets as a kid. I now have my own golden retriever who loves to have other animals to play with. I am currently available to be home during the day on both weekends and weekdays to provide lots of play time and attention to your pet. I am a full time student but am currently on break. I have a very spacious house with plenty of room for the pets to run around and play. I have a membership at the local dog park to take them there to play as well. They will always have a buddy to play with as I have a one year old golden retriever who is very friendly to all.
“Thank you so much it was amazing, she took great photos of our boy and he had a great time! He's super tired now and seemed to love playing with the other dogs from the photos. Even gave us some treats for him! Will definitely use again once we come back to the area”

“Rita was wonderful with my baby, Harper! She made sure Harper was comfortable in the setting and greeting process, then introduced her to the other dogs in her care that day. I will definitely use Rita for daycare and overnight stays in the future.”

“Great daycare service! Brody was very easy to communicate with and was able to fit us in due to a last minute cancellation by our usual rover sitter. He had a great yard for the dogs to play in and gave us updates throughout the day. If we are visiting Asheville again, we’ll definitely use Brody again :)”

About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and I take time to get to know each animal’s unique personality, needs, and routine. Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m there to give them the love and attention they deserve while you’re away. You can count on me for consistent communication, updates, and genuine care every step of the way. I work Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM, so I’m available for early morning, evening, and weekend care. Whether it’s morning walks, after-work snuggles, or weekend hangouts, I make sure pets get the attention and love they need. I stick closely to their pet’s usual routine to keep things stress-free—whether that means walks at certain times, feeding schedules, playtime, or just some good old-fashioned snuggling. I keep things clean, respectful, and always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Caring for pets in my own home, they’ll get a cozy, welcoming environment, plenty of attention, and lots of love (plus maybe a few extra treats if that’s allowed!).
“Jasper loves hanging out with Samantha and the rest of the animals. He gets lots of exercise and socialization that is soooo needed for my only child (dog). Samantha works from home and so do I, so Jasper is comfortable hanging out under the desk while we work and he does that with her too. I appreciate that because most of the time he is with me and my husband only. I hope to bring him once or twice a week in the future for daycare. Samantha is great with pics and to let you know your pet is doing ok.”
“It was good having someone so close to where I’m staying. I completely trusted her with my girl Zoe. I only had to leave Zoe for 3 to 4 hours when I was working and it completely slipped my mind at rest. I highly recommend Vicki and will absolutely use her when I can again”

“Alexa was great! She was super communicative and showed up on time every single day for a month to walk our two dogs while we were settling into a new house. She got them plenty of exercise each day, gave updates on how they did on each walk, adjusted walk lengths based on the weather and how much energy the dogs had each day, and overall was super attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Our boys are missing her already, and we will definitely be using her in the future!”

About: I’ve helped take care of every animal you can think of! Having a big family gave me plenty of opportunities to learn and grow with different animals I attend college two days a week and work the night shift at my job! My day starts pretty early so I have a little too much free time and would love to spend it caring for animals! As long as the animal is provided with every basic essential it needs I will go above and beyond to tend to every need your pet has

About: Hi! I'm Megan! As a former Kennel/Vet Tech with Vet Tech schooling and growing up with dogs, cats, horses and chickens, I have always had a special bond and connection to animals. I have experience with all kinds of different breeds and personalities! My husband, Josh, and I live in our camper van, so we are able to provide constant care for your pets while you're away. When you book us for overnight sits, we take care of your pets and stay in your home as a team of professional petsitters. Josh works remotely in IT, and I work some weekends in the wedding industry, so with no physical, daily job to go to and no house/pets of our own to check on, we are able to spend a significant amount of our time taking care of your pets. A bonus of our luxury care is that your pets will get double the love and attention from us throughout the day; our goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible and for them to hardly know you're gone! Living in a van and working remotely comes with so much flexibility for us and our Rover clients. Pet parents value the level of care we're able to provide with our nomadic lifestyle. Petcare is my full-time job, so when you book us for a housesit, that is my main priority. While I'm the main caretaker, Josh learns about your pets' care needs and helps out a ton as well, especially if I have to work a wedding or I need to do drop-ins/dog walks. We work great as a team to meet your pets’ needs and to keep their normal routine. We take the safety of your pets and the care of your home very serious. If you have pets that require special attention or have high anxiety, we are there to ensure everyone is safe, relaxed, and taken care of. We care for your pets as if they were our own and you can be rest assured they'll not only have their needs met, but be loved, played with and given plenty of attention as well!

I would an opportunity to take care of your pet and help you with whatever you need.

I feel like I’ve had it all, I am also a very seasoned Vet tech. I am expierenced with giving animals medication as well. If I am watching a dog I will be sure to make sure they get enough exercise, and any other pets I will make sure they all get love and cuddles! My own pets are super spoiled, and I would treat your pets just like they were my own. I don’t care about breeds, from working in a vets office I do have experience with animals that can sometimes be moody. I sure hope I get to talk to you soon! I do currently work 3 days a week, so pets that will be staying in my home will be taken care of before and after work by me. My partner is also at the house throughout the day and treats any animal that comes into our home like his own. I will take your pups for walks/hikes, and to the dog park if your pet is dog friendly. I believe allowing them to get their energy out is very important.
