“Macey took great care of our cat while we were away! She got along very well with Tinkerbell and always wrote nice daily reports with cute photos. I would recommend her as a sitter!”
About: I have had animals all my life, dogs, cats, rodents, and birds. I'm experienced with younger and older animals as well as giving medicines and other. I'm currently a college student and don't work so I have plenty of time to play with pups / kitties and come by for feedings and other. When pet sitting I typically will go by 2 to 3 times a day for feeding and play. I'm always careful around animals especially when they don't know me, I know some can take some time to warm up! I can do walks, play in house, or a backyard if allowed, and other general care.
“Erin was awesome!!!! She took such great care of our animals and was very communicative! She went above and beyond to make my animals feel safe and loved while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Chase was absolutely wonderful taking care of my cat during my vacation. He is a fantastic communicator and put me at ease about leaving my fur baby with him. Chase is so personable; my cat immediately took to him. I for sure will be using Chase in the future.”
About: I’m different from other cat sitters because I don’t just “check in” on cats—I take the time to truly care for them. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routines, and boundaries, and I respect all of it. Whether your cat is playful, shy, anxious, or a total diva, I move at their pace and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and litter habits, give genuine affection (when welcomed), and always prioritize a calm, clean environment. To me, cat sitting isn’t just a job—it’s building trust with your cat and peace of mind for you. 🐾
About: I’ve cared for cats for years through my own cat, as well as pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, giving cats attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every cat has a different personality and routine, and I’m patient with shy, nervous, playful, or independent cats. I’ll treat your cat with the same care and attention I give my own.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I am in college to become a Vet I am currently getting my Bachelors in science right now. I was a kennel assistant at a Veterinary office so I know how to administer some medication and can help look for signs of distress and anxiety. I am currently a full time student, so once I get out of class I will go and take care and play with the animals. I will go to your house and feed, play with your animals. If the animals has a schedule then I will follow it the same.
“Kaylee was amazing with my sweet kitty. She sent photos and made me feel so good about leaving Ruby with someone. She made Ruby feel just as comfortable! I would definitely send Ruby to visit her again.”
About: I’ve been around cats my entire life and genuinely love caring for them and understanding their unique personalities. From playful kittens to shy seniors, I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to each cat’s individual needs and comfort level. I understand that cats thrive on routine, calm environments, and trust, and I always aim to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, litter box care, administering basic medications if needed, interactive playtime, and giving cats the space they need to warm up at their own pace. Whether your cat is energetic and social or quiet and reserved, I’ll care for them like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and thoughtful care.
About: I have lived on a farm and owned pets my whole life! I love animals and I'm very accustomed to taking care of them. I also occasionally house-sit and pet-sit for close friends and family! I am currently a part time college student in Lynchburg and I only have a residential class one day a week. I do work part time as a server so some days I might have to take care of your pet until I go to work in the afternoon and then return in the evening. Dog/house sitting works better for me because I live on a farm with lots of other animals, which can make it tricky to keep other pets in the house.
About: I’ve cat sat for my neighbors and family members for a few years, and I’m looking forward to pet sitting new people! I started setting for my aunts 2 cats, she liked me so much she recommended me to my cousin. My mom saw how good I was doing and recommended me to the neighbors, after watching the neighbors kitchen twice, they recommended me to their kids and I watched their 2 kittens. I used to cat sit for my aunt a lot and I loved it but she moved away, so I can’t cat sit for her anymore. I love cat sitting and I can’t wait to start doing it again!
“We absolutely adore Lily! She did such an amazing job caring for our two kittens and following the instructions we had on them and our house. She communicated very well and we loved getting picture and video updates. One of our kittens, Luna, is extremely outgoing and the other, Lily, is very shy. Human Lily did a great job giving cat Lily the space she needed but also gave her love and attention when she sought it out. Luna loved human Lily! We will definitely be booking with Lily again. She checked all our boxes on what we were looking for. So much so that I wish we could keep her all to ourselves! :)”

About: Husband & wife team that has dogs, cats & chickens on over a half acre. We love animals & can't wait to love on your fur baby! We have 5 cats, including two bonded pairs, and 2 with special needs. We have training experience for dogs as well. We have a special needs dog, and have been proud pet parents of two senior dogs for 5 years. We have experience from puppies to hospice care. We are well adept with different training and dietary needs, and love dog walks. Our large fenced in backyard (half an acre) and two catios give our pets plenty of space to explore. We also have invisble fence for the front yard. We are skilled at grooming and nail trimming and dog teeth brushing, as well as giving medication. We love to spoil our pets; so we have a multitude of pet sofas, dog beds, cat trees, and a comfy outdoor dog house. And we love to cuddle all pets, so bed snuggles are encouraged. However, we have crate trained and support that as well! We also work well with cat backpacks and harness trained cats! Since we are a couple and I am a stay at home mom with a large car, your pets will be doted on and given any adventures you’re comfortable with. We even have doggy seatbelts! I'm a stay at home mom and my husband works from home part time, so we have ample time to take care of your fur babies. We have a fenced-in yard and 3 friendly dogs for your dogs to play with, as well as a screened-in deck (that is really a catio) and an upstairs screened-in catio for any feline guests. We also have an invisible fence for the front yard, to make sure everyone is safes We have ample space and time for supervised fun. In a client’s home, we like to stick to the routine to which an animal is most accustomed to in order to minimize disruptions and stress. That being said, we are more than willing to give ample enrichment via new park walks, frisbee throwing or training exercises. We are also skilled at grooming dogs and cats, including nail clippings, if that is an interest. We love to give cuddles and share our bed and couch, but we have crate trained before and will do whatever is best for your pet. Special dietary issues are no concern, as we already deal with daily in our home.
About: I have been dog/cat sitting for over 10 years. I grew up with two large labs and 1 cat that have all passed away. I currently have a 3 year old doodle (German Shepard/poodle) in my home that loves other dogs! I can take your dogs on walks, play with them, take them out to potty, feed them, etc. I am used to all different sized animals and am comfortable with taking care of more than one.

I also have multiple floors in my house if they need a break from each other, as well as a large dog crate or space for a crate.

About: I have had dogs the majority of my life. Dogs are such a gift from Heaven. Your fur baby will be treated like my own. I work from home so I am available at all times. We will take regular bathroom breaks to go outside and I will walk your baby separately from my baby. Your baby will get lots of cuddles from me and get to play with my doggy as well. I live in an apartment so will only be boarding one pup at a time. My dog loves making other pup friends and will love having sleep overs. Your pup is welcome to cuddle with me on the couch or sleep in bed with me. I have a fenced patio area that my dog loves to hang out in and lay in the sun sometimes. As long as your pup isn’t small enough to get through the posts, he or she is welcome there too. We do have a dog park in my community in which they can play as well.

About: Hello, thank you for checking out my page! I have loved animals all my life and have always had dogs. My oldest Bella who is 14 has been my companion since forever! I know the importance of family and how our fur babies need to feel loved. Hablo Español tambien. My girls have their own routine for walks and feeding so I can plan around their time to make time for your pets and their schedules. Having a full time job that allows me to work from home gives me the flexibility to spend more times with my fur babies and allow for additional walks throughout the day.
About: I have always been around dogs and cats. My family grew up with Springer Spaniels, Pugs, Boston Terriers & Cavachons. We take special care of your dog with love and attention! I have a family of four and am looking to stay active walking outdoors while also getting the chance to help care for your pet and stretch their legs. I currently work from home and have the flexibility in the morning, at lunch, and after work to go on longer walks. Our backyard is fenced for quick play sessions. My motto is to first understand what your preferences are and adapt to them. I strongly believe that for all of us to be most comfortable, we should clearly communicate what is expected from all parties to ensure the safety of your pet. Our yard is fenced and our neighborhood has sidewalks.
About: As a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom to two Mini Bernedoodles, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs. As a work-from-home professional, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a calm and reassuring presence, I’m committed to providing dependable care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. My Daily Routine I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent care, companionship, and potty breaks for the pets in my care. * 6:30–8:00 AM: Morning potty break, breakfast, fresh water, and a walk or playtime. * 8:00–11:30 AM: Relaxing indoors, supervised play, cuddles, enrichment toys, and potty breaks as needed. * 12:00–2:00 PM: Midday potty break and walk or backyard play while my toddler naps, giving pets dedicated one-on-one attention. * 2:00–5:00 PM: Afternoon companionship, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of affection. * 5:00–7:00 PM: Dinner, evening walk, and outdoor time. * 7:00–9:00 PM: Wind-down time with the family, cuddles, a final potty break, and settling in for the night. Because I’m home most of the day, pets are rarely left alone for extended periods. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved, just like they would at home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. My home has a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under my supervision. I also have two friendly, well-socialized Mini Bernedoodles who love having canine companions to play with, helping visiting pups feel welcome and engaged. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, so I’m happy to follow your preferences, whether that means maintaining a specific feeding schedule, administering medications (if needed), or using a crate. If your dog is crate-trained or you prefer they be crated for naps, bedtime, or when appropriate, I can easily accommodate that. My goal is to provide a safe, structured, and loving environment where you can feel confident your pup is being cared for like a member of the family.

I can easily crate your dog if needed. Also, my neighborhood is pet friendly .
About: We are a loving family of 4 who love to care for dogs. We are seeking dogs who are kid-friendly because we do have two kids (10 & 11 yrs old) who help lend a hand in caring for your doggie. I work from home most days and am able to give your pup lots of attention. If we leave the house it’s not usually for more than 2 hours. If we are watching a puppy, we adjust our routine to the puppy’s needs. We have a fenced in yard and love caring for dogs in our home. We often go for hikes and love to go to the dog park too, so please let us know if you foresee any issues with this so we can make adjustments to our routine as needed. All breeds welcome, but no aggressive dogs allowed. Dogs must be house trained (with the exception of puppies).

I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

About: Over 50 Years of Devoted Pet Care With more than five decades of hands-on experience, I have spent my life surrounded by animals—and wouldn’t have it any other way. From dogs and cats to horses, rabbits, and even rescues, caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I have never lived a day without a pet by my side, and animals naturally trust me in a way that feels almost magical. Whether I am gently nursing a senior dog, chasing down a runaway pup with a worried neighbor, or caring for someone’s beloved cat like it’s my own, I bring patience, love, and a deep understanding of animal needs to everything I do. Pet sitting with me isn’t just reliable—it’s personal, heartfelt care from someone who truly connects with animals. If your pets could talk, they’d tell you they can’t wait for me to come back. I am retired and happily available full-time—weekdays, weekends, holidays and even last-minute needs (unless I’m spending time with my grandkids). Whether it’s daily check-in’s, overnight stays, or extended care, I’m here when your pet needs me. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own—earning their trust with patience, kindness, and plenty of love. I always follow your specific instructions and routines, whether that means meal times, medications, walks, snuggles, or just quiet companionship. I know how important consistency is, and I strive to keep your pets relaxed and cared for in the comfort of their own home. What I Offer: • Drop-in visits (feeding, playtime, potty breaks) • Dog walking • Overnight stays • Medication administration • Lots of love and attention I also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you always know your pet is safe and happy. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animals in someone else’s care—I don’t take that lightly.
About: Hi! I’m Alyssa, I grew up around all kinds of animals and it’s made me a reliable and caring pet lover who enjoys spending time with them. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority! My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of time and attention. I’m available anytime after 1 PM everyday of the week for walks or drop-ins! I also work part-time throughout the week, but I still have a lot of free time and can often fit in pet care depending on the timing. Because I keep my schedule fairly open, I’m able to focus on making sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, personality, and schedule so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home due to the animals that already live here and the limited space. However, I’m happy to care for pets in their own home through drop-ins, walks, or house sitting where they are most comfortable in their familiar environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. I respect your home, keep things clean, and will always keep you updated so you know your pet is safe and happy.
About: I’ve had the opportunity to take care of dogs that have hearing, vision, and temperament problems. I’ve never had an issue not being able to walk a dog. And if you haven’t ordered dog, I will have no issue helping the dog get stepped or into a car if needed. I love all dogs and I personally own a large dog and a medium sized dog. I’m currently work full-time so I won’t be completely available all the time, but I’ll make time for your pups. But I’m a pretty flexible person. I don’t offer for the animals to be kept at my house. If I were to have a dog stay at my home or if I had to go to a clients home, I would just make sure to have all of my things together as well as ground rules with the owner.

I am typically available full-time on the weekends only as I have all day off on those days. Weekdays I am available after 5pm. After I get off of work I typically care for my own pets before relaxing myself. I like to follow instructions provided by the owner. I typically prefer to give pets their respective space unless they show to be needy with affection or hyperactive and need an outlet for their energy via playtime!
About: I’ve taken care of some of relatives pets such as my aunt’s dog, my dad’s cat, and my cousin’s dog. I have experience walking dogs and overnight sitting. I’m currently in graduate school and most of my classes are online! I work part time usually in the afternoons. I usually keep my weekends free to study and dog sit. I can keep the dog crated overnight or when I leave for work if needed. My house is in a nice and safe area. My house is clean and organized.
About: Hi, my name is Shavonna and I’ve been on Rover since the beginning of Spring 2019. I’m 32yrs old and I live in Rock Hill SC, and I have two boys and a daughter. They are 1yr, 4yr, and a 11yr. I love working with animals, it’s my passion other than being a mother to my kids. I went to school for veterinary assistant and have a certification to help animals or to take care of them. I treat animals is like they was my own. I’m very sweet and gentle when it comes to someone pet and if you let me I can show you how a good pet sitter I can be! My skills are is to let the pet know that I’m in control because sometimes the pet might run over you, so you have to show them who’s boss. Any other way I will not neglect the animal nor abuse, I feel that’s an awful thing to do! Like I said you have to treat the animals as just as if was my own because they are human beings just in a different way! I work from home. So basically I be at home the majority of the day. So I have time on my hands to fit pet care in my schedule! I make sure they are well love as much love I give to my boys and daughter! I also will take them on walks as needed to get the nature outdoors!

“We had asked Chase to walk our 2 dogs once a day for 2 days while we were traveling out of state. My Mom was watching our dogs while we were away and Chase was very professional and friendly when communicating regarding times and walks with her. Chase is always amazing to work with and the pups love him! Thank you Chase!”
About: Whether your dog be small and hyper, large and lazy, or somewhere in between, I am guaranteed to put in the time and effort to make sure your pet is comfortable and content while you are away! I also take pride in good communication and leaving your home as I found it when performing home visits/stays - I treat everyone’s pets and belongings as I would my own! I have experience with pets of all sizes and personalities and am able to provide the patience it takes to tend to each one’s individual needs. A little about me: - I work a remote position, so I am home/available during the day. -My fiancé, Jacob, and I moved from Virginia to NC in July of last year, and just recently purchased a home in Rock Hill! We live with our beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Willow. - I have a B.S. in Biology with a pre-veterinary minor - JMU alumni (GO DUKES!!💜💛). I also have experience working as a veterinary assistant in various clinics. - I enjoy traveling and spending time outdoors. I’m also a major foodie and love to cook or going out to try new restaurants! I am excited to have the opportunity to work with you and meet your fur baby - if you take an interest to my profile, please do not hesitate to contact me! I work remotely full time during the week, so I am home all hours of the day and can support flexibility. I also have a dog of my own, so pet care is always in my daily routine. I am typically open to however things are normally ran at home - I just ask for open communication in general for anything I should be aware of about your pet or your home.
About: I have lived on a farm and owned pets my whole life! I love animals and I'm very accustomed to taking care of them. I also occasionally house-sit and pet-sit for close friends and family! I am currently a part time college student in Lynchburg and I only have a residential class one day a week. I do work part time as a server so some days I might have to take care of your pet until I go to work in the afternoon and then return in the evening. Dog/house sitting works better for me because I live on a farm with lots of other animals, which can make it tricky to keep other pets in the house.
