“All I can say is that I didn’t know Georgie could possibly be more spoiled than he already was but he is and that is a good thing! Made the entire trip away perfect knowing he was being so loved. Anyone who adores their dog and considers them their baby and not just a pet, do not hesitate to trust Toni to care for them.”
“I am officially a repeat customer! Caroline is easy to work with and flexible when things need to change. I feel very comfortable leaving my doggie with her and her family.”
“My dog had a great time with Sarah and her family. He was well-cared for, got along with their dog, and got lots of exercise and attention. It was a great experience and I appreciated the pictures she sent!”
“Katie & Jeremy are great with our girl! They provide excellent care & keep us updated on how she's doing. We're already planning our next trip & plan to ask them if they'll take care of her for us then.”
“We are so impressed with our first time using Rover. Ann and Jaren were great, communicative with texts and pics. We highly recommend them and will use them again!”
“Erin 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!”
“Vicky was such a caring sitter for our sweet dog, Max… She kept us informed with videos and texts and pictures while we were gone. Gave us such peace of mind knowing he was so well taken care of. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again when we are back in that area.💕”
“Rick loves dogs and takes good care of them. This was the first time my dog had stayed with someone she didn't know but he knew what to do and gave her lots of love. Poppy looks forward to staying with him again.”
“Joe is awesome and his home is super dog friendly! He’s very responsive and accommodating. One of my girls wanted to stay when I picked her up after her first visit!”
“This was Lucy’s second stay, and I’m so happy she has somewhere she feels loved to vacation! We get plenty of communication, and photos and video letting us know that she’s having fun while we’re away.”
“Our pups love Alyssa! She sends lots of updates and pictures for peace of mind. We know they are in loving hands and get to play to their hearts content. Many thanks!”
“Kali was a great sitter for Rosie! Her dogs were great companions and kept her active. Kali was very responsive, attentive, and over all a pleasure to work with. Would recommend to anyone who has an active dog!”
“Rex had a blast staying with Brody! Rex came home a tired pup (a good thing!). Brody made me feel very comfortable leaving Rex with him- I knew he would be well taken care off! Will definitely use him again!!!”
“Robin is so comforting. She is calm and compassionate with our aging pup, and we are so relieved when he is in her competent care. Robin is our first choice for caring for our sweet little man. 🐶❤️”
“I HIGHLY recommend Maria and Jose!! They took excellent care of my little morkie and treated her as one of their family. I really appreciated their regular updates and when my flight was delayed, they were very accommodating. I feel so fortunate to have found them and will definitely use them again!”
“Caleb, a fairly recent rescue dog with residual anxiety, spent two weeks with Kristin and took only a few hours to readjust to being back home with us. I think this reflects the attention and secure, loving home that Kristin provided. Caleb had other dogs to play with, a cozy indoor environment, and a regular schedule at his home-away-from-home. I would certainly recommend Kristin and will use her again in the future.”

“I want to share how kind and responsible Savannah has been each time she has sat for my cat Obi. She has been wonderful from the beginning, but this time was even more because the day before I had to leave, Obi got an ear infection. I took him to the vet and they gave him a prescription for ear drops. I was so worried because I could not cancel my trip! I talked to Savannah and she set me at ease that she could give him the meds, and assured me that if she had any issues, she would call me. The second she got the drops in his ears she texted me a pic and I felt so much better. She also took great care of my place and was very prompt about responding to any of my questions. I find it hard to leave Obi and I know can be a little bit of a worrier! Savannah makes me feel at ease because I know she takes her job very seriously. Thank you so much, Savannah. Until next time…”
About: I grew up with dogs as family pets and have always considered myself a “dog person.” My family had a sheepdog, a black lab, and a Scottish sheepdog, which helped shape my lifelong love for animals. About 30 years ago, I met my wife, a true cat person through and through, and over time I happily transitioned into becoming a devoted cat lover as well. Over the years, my wife and I have shared life with three cats, even taking them on leash walks around the neighborhood—yes, I am proudly that person now. Bella, my 18-year-old super senior cat, just lost her struggle with kidney disease and we miss her dearly. My wife and I spoil our animals all the time. Our cats have always been like children to us and the bonds we build with our animals over the years have been deeply meaningful. I believe animals teach unconditional love, friendship, and have a beautiful way of offering comfort exactly when it’s needed most. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have spent years looking after neighbors’ chickens, rabbits, dogs, cats, hamsters, and even a rat! After 13 years of teaching English at a nearby Early College, I recently retired from education and am excited to begin this new chapter with Rover. I have always had an entrepreneurial spirit. When I am not caring for animals, I run a professional mountain biking guide service in Asheville called Pisgah Mountain Bike Adventures. With more than 40 years of passion for mountain biking, being outdoors and in the mountains is where I feel most at home. I also run an Airbnb in our finished basement and I am currently writing a memoir. I am excited to be part of the Rover team and I look forward to caring for your dog, cat, or other beloved pet with the same level of attentiveness and heart that I have given to everything in my life. I am all in. I am excited to continue growing with Rover and embrace this new direction in my life with enthusiasm and hope, proving it’s never too late to follow a new calling! I am available 7 days a week for dog walks, overnight care, drop in visits, pet transport and housesitting. I am pet first aide and CPR certified and ready to help care for your fur babies anytime. I will board your dog or cat in my home or yours. I am an outdoor enthusiast, so will provide outdoor enrichment, long walks and various activities like playing fetch in the park or snuggles and extra 1 on 1 time for your pet. As a retired teacher, I bring professional level customer service, reliablity and professional pet care for you and your fur babies. I am very flexible with scheduling. Your pet or house is in good hands, leaving you free to go about your day and not worry about your home or fur babies. Thanks for trusting in menfor your pet and houshold needs.
“Lilac was the most incredible cat sitter we’ve had. Not only did she send the cutest photos everyday, but she also took photos of our kitties eating and their water bowls to show us that they were eating and getting fresh water everyday. She was very communicative and accommodating. When lilac came over for her visit to meet the cats it was apparent that she knew what she was doing, that she was responsible and serious about her job, but also so excited to be working with our animals. Anyone who books with Lilac can be confident that their pets are being loved on and cared for!”
“Caitlin was a great pet sitter for our 17 year old cat Vittles. We just moved to the area and Vittles was still adjusting to his new surroundings. Caitlin took the time to make sure he was comfortable and communicated with us daily on his activities. She even got him a couple of little Christmas gifts while we were gone. I would definitely recommend Caitlin and will be hiring her again to watch over Vittles.”
“Liliana provided a welcoming environment for my cats while I needed to board them. She sent many photos and texts, letting me know how they were doing during their stay with her. She also was instructed as to what I needed to bring with them in case I hadn’t planned for that already. If I need to board my cats again, I will definitely reach out to her!”
“Pamela is great! She is punctual and our kitty loves her! She communicates regularly. She even went the extra mile and replaced the batteries in our touch-activated faucet. Thanks Pamela!”
“This was my first time using Rover service for my two kitties. I am very pleased with how it worked out. Larry did a great job following directions for my cats care! He send me daily pictures and notes about them- fed them their dinner each night, checked on them, scooped the box and even brought in the mail. I will gladly use Larry again when I travel. Glad to find a nearby neighbor that’s a caring, responsible animal lover. Thanks Larry!”
About: I have had pets my whole life and taken care of friends and neighbors pets as well. We have a beloved dog named Marley, a ball python, and 15 chickens. I love animals and can’t wait to meet and get to know yours! My availability is open, so let me know if you need set walking times, or pet sitting, Especially during the week, but also weekends work! I can come to you, to walk your dog, or care for any pets in your home, clean out liter boxes, water plants or check mail.
“Cera is amazing! She is kind, very responsive, and flexible. My mind was at ease knowing my cat was in the best hands while I was gone. She kept me updated with lots of adorable pictures and was happy to accommodate a couple other household tasks I asked her to do. I’m so glad to have found her and look forward to using her services in the future.”
“We always get so nervous leaving our sweet boy for long periods of time, Kasidy was wonderful in sending pictures and updates that helped put us at ease. She also clearly vocalized her affection for our boy that helped assure he was in good hands with someone who loved spending time with him!”
“We're a repeat fan of Tiffany! Due to her always showing up in the timeframe promised and being attentive to our care list for Dalton and Lucy, we are able to enjoy our time away without worry.”
“One of our dog seriously hurt her leg two days before we were leaving for a week long vacation. Lena stepped in without hesitation to help with meds and provide extra care per our vet's instructions. She made a stressful situation much easier to handle—both for us and our hurt dog! She also took awesome pics!”
About: My style is very gentle, understanding, and affectionate, though I am also very clear with boundaries and behaviors. I was a foster parent for Lap Dog Rescue of New Mexico for three years. I have special experience with pregnant dogs and cats, newborns, and I have a big soft spot for senior pets. I am an avid hiker and walker, so your babies will get plenty of exercise! I am a retired childbirth educator, doula, and Hypnotherapist. I am blessed to have my days to myself and am home all day except for errands and hikes. We live in Sun City, Georgetown, Texas. Since I'm retired, my schedule is wide open. Lana, my partner, works full time from home. Our two little 5 year old poodle mixes are used to welcoming and entertaining new furry friends, since they have "fostered" many dogs over the years.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong cat lover with years of hands-on experience caring for multiple cats, each with their own unique personalities, routines, and quirks. I understand that cats thrive on consistency, patience, and trust—and I take the time to make every visit calm, respectful, and stress-free. I treat every cat as if they were my own, whether that means playful engagement, gentle companionship, or simply giving them space while making sure they’re safe and well cared for. I’m also a full-time mom to an eight-month-old, which has deepened my nurturing nature and attention to detail. Cat care allows me to contribute financially to my household while doing something that truly brings me joy—caring for animals with love, responsibility, and heart. Your cat’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my top priority. 🐱💛

“Winnie had a great time at Lindsey's day care today! Our dog is happy there and especially loves running around in the back yard with Coco. We are repeate customers here and have another boarding stay coming up soon. Lindsey does a great job!”
“Lena did a great job taking care of my pup who had surgery and needed some love while I was gone for long clinical days at the hospital. It gave me peace of mind she was being well taken care of. I will definitely be using Lena again to care for my pups.”
“Janet was absolutely amazing with my dog Boden! He sometimes struggles with separation anxiety, but Janet was able to make him feel so comfortable that he was actually excited to go back to her house for daycare after just one day! Not only did she take great care of him, but she was also fantastic at communicating with me throughout the day, keeping me updated on how Boden was doing. She took him on walks and even to the dog park, which he absolutely loved! Plus, he had the best time playing with her dogs too! I cannot recommend Janet enough - she is truly a wonderful dog caregiver.”
“Alyssa and Bryan took such great care of our two girls and they have come back happy and tired both times we’ve sent them! They kept us updated with photos and letting us know what they had been up to. They asked a lot of thoughtful questions about Zoe and Riley and I’m very happy to have found them to take care of my crew. They have a great space and yard for the dogs to play and explore, which was a big draw for me. Will definitely book them again!”
“Jackie and Sammy are great. Loretta loved their backyard and all the walks and cuddles. They truly treated Loretta like she was their own. Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs and sick/disabled dogs. I can administer medication, if needed. My dogs are our family members and yours will be treated the same. I am currently working from home so your pet won’t be left home alone for very long periods. I am available during the week and weekends including holidays. I have two very sweet and mellow Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to keep your doggie company. They will have access to 2 separate fenced in areas, one with a doggie door. Your dog can be crated or not and are welcome on the furniture with our dogs. Ours sleep in an x-pen together but your dog can sleep where ever it prefers. I want them to be comfortable like it is their own home.
About: Hi! My names Elli, I've been a dog mom for many years now and love my fur babies. I've spent some time doing service dog training years ago so I have a good understanding of dogs and the way they function and learn. I will ensure your pet is well taken care of and has plenty of fun whether I'm walking them, checking on them, or keeping them company while you are away! No dog is too big or small for me to handle and with several great dog parks and walking trails in my area there is always something for us to do. I will follow all guidelines owners have set for me, and can be trusted to maintain their home and pets safety during my stays with them or when staying with me. Thanks for reading my "About Me", I hope it answers any questions you may have and puts minds at ease! I am a stay at home mom at the moment. My daughter attends school during the weekdays from 8 am - 4 pm, so I spend my days home with our animals and doing online school! While in my home I will ensure your pup is well cared for with all needs met. In the morning we would have a prompt potty break followed by breakfast and would would go on at least 2 walks during the day. I will follow your desired schedule for eating and rest so please feel free to let me know any needs! I have a fenced in yard with lots of space to run and play! When inside my two pups roam the house and enjoy relaxing on the couch in the sun.

“Stephanie was very sweet and patient with my baby and I am so appreciative. She sent me updates throughout the day which I enjoyed. She was accommodating to my hectic schedule.”
About: As a remote Registered Nurse (RN), I bring a clinical eye to pet care. I notice subtle changes in behavior or health that others might miss. I’m comfortable administering medications in any form, from pills to inhalers, and my own pets are on daily medication routines so it’s second nature. My background in farming gave me hands-on experience with animal health and handling, and I’ve worked with my own dogs on training from puppyhood. I’m home all day, every day, so your dog gets constant attention and care, not just a place to play and sleep. I work from home Monday through Friday, 9 to 5, with a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time in the mornings, evenings, and throughout the day. I have lots of time for walks, potty breaks, and playtime, and my job allows me to step away whenever your pup needs attention. I can work from my office or the couch, wherever your dog is most comfortable. On my days off I tend to stay close to home, and if I do need to run an errand I won’t be gone long and can always accommodate you and your dog’s needs. I share my home with three animals who are very well loved. Haddie is my 7 year old spayed terrier mix, about 22 pounds, and my two cats are Zuzu, a spayed senior, and June, who is 4 years old and also spayed. Each of them has their own dietary and medical needs, so I’m already in the routine of specialized diets and medications. Your dog will fit right into that level of care. Haddie goes out every two to four hours and we walk together every day. There’s also plenty of backyard playtime. The backyard is not currently fenced, but a fence is going up soon. In the meantime I have a post with a long leash line in the yard and keep Haddie on a harness. I am always outside with her when using the leash line and never leave her unattended, and will do the same for your dog. My home is clean, open, and pet friendly. The furniture and beds are fair game for your dog. I do have a dedicated cat room with a gate that only the cats can fit through, so they always have their own safe space. All of my houseplants are pet safe as well. I also live at the end of a dead end street near the cul de sac, so it’s a quiet area with only local traffic and no busy roads nearby.

About: I have been a veterinary nurse at an AAHA accredited hospital for the last 6 years, and prior to that, worked at an additional hospital as well as a pet store with exotics. I am more than comfortable administering any method of medication, and taking care of your medical needs, special needs, or senior fur babies. I own two friendly dogs, two sassy cats, and a baby ball python myself- variety is the spice of life. If you’re looking for a medically experienced caretaker for your kids, I’m your gal! *also have grooming experience with medical needs animals I just moved to the Asheville area, so Im excited to explore around. I have just taken a M-Th veterinary position, but I still plan on working Rover into my schedule!

I do not have a yard, but I am very active and used to taking my large dogs for >3-4 mile walks daily.
“Thank uuu Jen!! She was just the best!!

Jen sent photos and messaged We hope to return and will contact Jen!! We highly recommend her!! 🍃🏆🩷🐾😀”
“Jackie was the perfect match for watching our mini Aussie while we explored the Biltmore. We chose Jackie due to no other pets / no children and she lives close to Biltmore. Her experience working with dogs was important also. Ivey has separation anxiety and Jackie’s calming voice helped her acclimate. Plus the wonderful view and deck was added plus for Ivey’s entertainment. Jackie is an excellent communicator. Highly recommend her!!!”
About: I've had experience with cats and dogs for over two decades. I have two dogs and two cats and we love to camp, hike, swim, cuddle and play fetch together. I am very reliable and will treat your pet with love as if it was my own. I understand how it feels having to leave your pet while you are away and will make sure you have peace of mind that your pet is well taken care of and given the proper amount of attention while you are away.

I can care for any of your pets needs. I love going on walks and hikes, especially with doggos.
“Golda was great with our dog, Cooper. He was with Golda part of everyday for four days. As we'd approach her home he would become very excited! Nothing better than a well-cared for happy dog! Thank you, Golda.”

About: I love pretty much anything with 4 legs. I have great patience with puppies, and a soft spot for older dogs with specialty care needs. I’m able to give medication and cater to most schedule requirements. My current job is part time during the earlier hours of the day, this allows me to be available for early afternoons and evenings. Also, because I work close to home I am able to provide regular morning routines that your pet may be used to. My goal is to care for your pet just as well as you do! If they are used to crates or simply being out in your home, that’s what they’ll experience with me. I don’t have pets of my own so yours will be sure to get my undivided attention. I live in a quiet neighborhood with safe roads to walk on, and trails close by for higher energy pets! My flexible schedule allows plenty of time for driving to and from your home if necessary, and a chance to give your dog the attention they need.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets—including two large dog breeds and multiple cats. I truly have a huge heart for animals and treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and lots of love. I understand the needs of bigger dogs as well as the unique personalities of cats, and I’m comfortable handling a variety of temperaments and routines. I’m also a full-time mom to an eight-month-old, which has only deepened my sense of responsibility, nurturing, and attentiveness. Pet sitting is a meaningful way for me to help support my family financially while doing something I genuinely love—caring for animals like they’re part of my family. 🐾 As a full-time mom working from home, I have flexible daytime availability and can easily accommodate regular pet check-ins and walks throughout the day. I’m home-based, dependable, and able to give pets consistent attention rather than rushed visits. With enough advance notice, overnight house sitting is absolutely an option as well, allowing me to provide extended, attentive care when needed. I care for pets with the same attention, respect, and love I give my own. I follow each pet’s established routine closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions—to help them feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I prioritize calm, low-stress visits, keeping their space clean and their pet happy, exercised, and well cared for. Whether it’s active play, gentle companionship, or simply being a reassuring presence, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and personality, treating every animal as if they were part of my family.

About: I have been a veterinary nurse at an AAHA accredited hospital for the last 6 years, and prior to that, worked at an additional hospital as well as a pet store with exotics. I am more than comfortable administering any method of medication, and taking care of your medical needs, special needs, or senior fur babies. I own two friendly dogs, two sassy cats, and a baby ball python myself- variety is the spice of life. If you’re looking for a medically experienced caretaker for your kids, I’m your gal! *also have grooming experience with medical needs animals I just moved to the Asheville area, so Im excited to explore around. I have just taken a M-Th veterinary position, but I still plan on working Rover into my schedule! I have two friendly dogs, who will play with dogs that want to play, ignore the ones who don’t, and will be gentle with the young and little ones. I do not have a yard, but I am very active and used to taking my large dogs for >3-4 mile walks daily.
“Carlina was fantastic with Coco! She kept us updated throughout the stay with lots of pictures and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. Coco got along so well with Carlina's dog and seemed to have a wonderful time. Carlina gave her plenty of snuggles, treats, and attention, and it was clear that Coco was very well cared for. We could tell she was happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. We would absolutely book with Carlina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! 🐾❤️”

“Jordan and her little 3-year-old daughter were super sweet!! They took great care of our little Shih Poo girl, not to mention she had just started her cycle. I was afraid that Jordan might cancel, but she didn't. My daughter and I brought her with her crate, diapers, food, and toys, and that was that. We were able to enjoy our travels to see family over the weekend without worry over our baby pooch. We're keeping Jordan's profile up top!”
