“Nancy did an excellent job caring for Jimmy, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was kind, professional, and very communicative. She kept me updated and made sure Jimmy was comfortable, happy, and well cared for during his entire stay. It was clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. I had complete peace of mind knowing Jimmy was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with Nancy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter.”
“Katie & Jeremy, and their adorable son were great with my pups, who by the way are very spoiled and needy. They sent pictures and commentary every day I was gone. Their set-up was perfect giving my pups lots of safe and enclosed outdoor space to run and play, and a warm and loving indoor environment as well. I will use them again for sure! Thank you Katie & Jeremy for loving up my furbabies!”
“This was the best experience we’ve ever had boarding our dog!!!! They did such a great job and sent us updates and pictures every day!! Shadow seemed so happy and content when we picked him up!!! I will definitely use James again in the future!!!!!”
“Maria and Jose took great care of our girl. They instantly made us feel comfortable and asked great questions to understand all her needs. They sent us tons of videos/pics throughout her stay which put us at ease knowing she was having a blast playing with their dogs and going on walks. I highly recommend them as they were great with our puppy.”
“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”
“Pisco had a wonderful time with Alexis. Long walks, regular attention, and a nice place to relax. We appreciated her regular stream of photos. Highly recommend Alexis. We'll use her again.”
“Miss Shirley was a perfect fit for my dog, she took excellent care of her, kept me updated with pictures and texts, and my dog seemed to like her very much, which is comforting to see. Definitely recommend and will for sure book again in the future. Thank you for being great at what you do.”
About: I absolutely love dogs and cats. I am willing to do check ins when you go out of town. I love all size dogs. If i do check ins I can come pretty much anytime of the day. I am also available on weekends. I am very responsible and trustworthy. I have watched dogs for many friends and family members. If you let me watch your dogs i will take great care of them for you! Dogs are the best animals and they are fun to be around. I also cat sit. I have a diabetic cat so I know a lot about cats. I will board your dog at my house but they have to be friendly with young kids and another dog and cat. I am also not too far from Weaverville. I’m a stay at home mom so I can be available all different times of the day. I am available weekdays and on the weekends. I do not have a fenced in yard but we do have bushes that separate it from the road and I can stay outside with them.
“Kaitlyn and her family were so wonderful to our dog, Cocoa! They treated her like their own and she was so spoiled staying with them! Kaitlyn sent several photo updates throughout each day! She took Cocoa on multiple daily walks, made sure she ate her food, gave her a new toy, and even sent her home with a new bandana! It was purr-fect!”
“Stephanie was easy to work with and super flexible with my changing schedule. Baruch was well taken cared of. And we got awesome pictures every day of him having fun.”
“I could not recommend Brody more!!! He was amazing with my pup and sent lots of pics and videos to make me feel comfortable. I love how he has big fenced in yards for the pups. My Luda man had so much fun making me doggy friends over at Brody’s!”
“Kristin was awesome with Chance and Sally! They had a great time and really enjoyed her big fenced in back yard! I will certainly use her again if staying in the area again and highly recommend her!”
“I’d give Vicky 10 stars if I could. Lucy loved her time with Vicky and I felt at ease knowing she was being well loved. Vicky sent us multiple videos of Lucy, which made our time apart much more comforting. Many thanks to you, Vicky”
“We appreciate her always being willing to work with us on drop off and pick up times! Yes, she works around her schedule, but she takes yours into consideration too and it helps take the stress out of boarding when you’re trying to make it work with travel plans, etc.”
“Emily and her family took great care of D-Rex and were very flexible. They sent us a lot of pictures and kept us updated. So glad we found them in such short notice and they were able to accommodate us.”
“Jessica and her partner treated my dog like a king! They also responded to my booking on a last minute request. They made sure to follow the instructions given and my dog came home good and tired from the amount of exercise he was able to receive. The property is perfect for a dog to run and have personal time in a secluded fenced in area, if needed. Great stay and definitely would book again!”

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 3 years old and have always had a passion and love for them. I currently have 15 dogs myself (5 are rescue/fosters). I previously worked for an animal rescue that has had all types of dogs (and other animals) including small & large breed dogs, special needs (seizures, diabetes, amputees), escape artists, etc. I'm also a certified Positive-Reinforcement Dog Trainer through Catch! Dog Training Academy. I would love to meet you and your dog and help with any of your needs! Walks, Drop in Visits, Watching them while you're away on vacation. I know how wonderful it is to have peace of mind while you're away from your babies and they will always be safe with me! :) I'm a small business owner (Dog Collars, Leashes, Etc.) with a very flexible schedule to easily fit you and your pet's needs. I can be available on most days or times as needed. I want to provide all pets with the love & care that they require. It is so important to me to provide a safe, calm, and enriching environment where your dog can be their best self.
“So happy Rosaria was available for my last minute booking. I will definitely be using her in the future she’s so kind and sweet to my dogs they loved their time with her. She went above and beyond letting them play out all their energy.”
“Karmyn accepted feedback when it was shared, and met our pets needs. She learns their habits and made sure to see them at least once during each visit (scaredy cats!) thank you !”
About: I started working in boarding kennels straight out of high school 13 years ago. I did that until I got into dog grooming 6 years ago. I’m looking to get back into the passion of caring for all sorts of dogs not just cutting their hair now that I’m home full time. I have experience in administering medication, and any special dietary needs. I have a two year old daughter, Laeton. She’s in daycare during the week periodically & My availability is pretty flexible. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies soon 🤗🥰🐶🐾 I am a stay at home mom, looking to make some extra money, i have stepped out of working a full time job to be home with my two year old daughter because daycare is unfortunately unreliable so , I'm home about 80 percent of the time. I will feed / water them twice a day walks 4x a day. I have a field beside my house , I live in the country. I am also available to pick up dogs and take them on walks , I’m all about taking pictures so I’ll definitely blow your phone up with pictures while your baby is in my care.
About: I've cared for several cats and dogs of all ages in my life since my childhood including newborn puppies and kittens. I understand the importance of good nutrition, hygiene, exercise and affection in order for our pets to be healthy physically and emotionally. As members of the family, I understand the relief that comes with knowing and trusting someone is taking proper care of your pet when you are away. I have a very flexible schedule where I can adjust my time according to your pets needs. I am self employed part time allowing me to be available all different times of the day. I can provide trustworthy care for your pet safely in your home or on outings. I enjoy walking and running, and making trips to the dog park.
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats my entire life and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, play with, check in on, and comfort their cats while away. I’m calm, dependable, attentive, and especially good with shy or sensitive cats who need patience and a gentle presence.
“Kim was absolutely wonderful with our older kitty, Georgia Mae! She came to our home a bit early so that she could meet us and our Kitty. I was hesitant to have anyone watch our kitty, because yes, I’m an overprotective fur baby mama, and could not bring myself to put her in anyone’s care but my own. Let me tell you, letting go, and letting Kim take care of her was one of the best things I’ve ever done! Kim was so loving to Georgia Mae, she showed her caring and love of fur babies right away, and our Lil girl went right up to Kim in trust....great sign! I am already looking at other dates in the near future for Kim to again show her love for Georgia Mae, and sweet manner with myself and my husband. She is the best! Thank you Kim! Thank you Rover! We now have a wonderful new friend of our family!”
About: Caring for cats has been a part of my life since childhood, and I’ve continued to build my expertise by house sitting for cats throughout adulthood. Whether your cat needs medication or a specific diet, I ensure they receive the proper care and attention they require. I understand the unique personalities of cats and am committed to keeping them comfortable, happy, and well-fed while you're away. With years of experience, you can trust me to care for your feline family members with the love and patience they deserve.
“She is the best I’ve 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.”
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

“Jess was so great with our dogs over thanksgiving. She sent so many pictures and stories, making us feel much better about the long trip away from them. We could tell that our dogs felt at home with her family!”
“Rosaria was amazing! She was willing to meet me to pick up my dog so I didn't have to drive farther and be late to my conference. She was very friendly and gave us lots of goodies to hit the road with. She was sweet to my dog and took great care of her. I hope to see her again!”
About: Hi! We’re an animal-loving family with room to roam and a whole lot of heart. We share our home with three wonderful dogs (a Pointer, a German Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix, and an Australian Shepherd) all 7 years and older, plus our cat, Potato. We’re very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and species under one roof. Our dogs are mature, well-socialized, and help create a calm, balanced pack environment. We live on 2 acres with a securely fenced quarter-acre for safe, supervised outdoor play. There’s plenty of space for sniffing, structured exercise, and relaxing in the fresh air. My wife and I are almost always home, so your pet will receive consistent supervision, attention, and affection. We also have a sweet baby, Cooper, who is growing up learning to gently and respectfully love animals. Our home is calm, structured, and family-oriented. In addition to boarding, we also offer drop-in visits for pets who are happiest staying in their own home. Whether your pet needs potty breaks, feeding, walks, medication, or just some companionship and playtime, we’re happy to help. I’m currently a stay at home parent so my schedule is wide open for both days and nights to take on boarding or do visits to other homes. My home has a large fenced area where our three dogs can roam and exercise. I am very reliable and respectful when it comes to entering others’ homes while taking care of their pets.
“Love! Stephanie was super sweet and understanding. She was incredibly accommodating with our schedule and able to wear out our two noisy hounds. Provided several photos of the dogs living their best lives. Would definitely use again, if she’ll have us!”
“This is my 2nd review - both 5 stars! Jose & Maria take such good care of my precious Clementine. They listen & follow through with instructions, communicate quickly & genuinely care about my pup. Clementine has done both doggy daycare & boarding, both experiences have gone really well :)”
“James was great with cookie. We always feel comfortable leaving our dog with them. Updates with photos are always appreciated when you've been away from your pet for several days.”
“Alexis is great- welcoming, and friendly. Upon meeting her you can immediately tell she enjoys living on her small farm and taking care of animals. We felt very comfortable with our dog hanging out with her. Good communicator. Highly recommend.”
“Brody is very accommodating and friendly dog sitter. My first impressions is that he is someone who is very trustworthy and caring for dogs. My two pups had an amazing time with him, and I am looking forward to future visits to Asheville and knowing that the dogs will have an exciting and safe experience.”
“I am a first time Rover user and my Chloe stayed with Shirley and Jeff all day yesterday to get acquainted with them and their home. All I can say is when I came to pick her up, she was relaxed, happy and didn't really care that I was there. You don't know how happy this made me. Thank you Shirley and Jeff for treating Chloe like your own. She'll be back for more love..... Donna & Guy”
“Excellent dog sitter! Tracey watched Dexter while my family and I went to Gatlinburg for the day. She accommodated our schedule and was flexible with pickup and drop off times. Dexter was very cozy and enjoyed his stay!”
“We were in the area for sightseeing. Kristin was welcoming and seemed to be aware of how to treat the different sizes of dog that she was watching. I can not speak on Stellas behalf, except I Heard no complaining. Thanks for watching Stella for us so that we can enjoy our sightseeing.”
About: Ive cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for years, including my own mini Labradoodle. I am confident with puppies, high energy dogs and shy pups who need gentle love. I have hands on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, medication, crate training. I treat every dog like they are my own. I am a junior in college, I will be home for winter break for over a month and want a side hustle! I have open availability throughout the week. I have a Labradoodle Honey who gets lots of attention, affection, and a consistent routine. I make sure she has rest spots, fresh water at all time, and regular walks and outside time. I will send regular updates and photos so you know how ur puppy is doing.

About: Home is where your heart is as your pets are in your heart, I take care of both while your away on vacation or a work trip. My fur babies are my world. So you can be rest assured I care for yours as they're my own! I can assist with pet care in your home or mine. I offer dog walking for when you are at work or away from home on holiday. Playtime is paramount for most pets. It keeps them engaged and happy. Dogs that are active should have extra activities while you're away. I'm an active person and I believe it's your pets utmost health benefit to have lots of playtime and outdoor time! I also have fostered and pet sit for elderly or more low key dogs and always provide just the right amount of activity to take any limitations so not to strain or over do. I am currently taking dog behavioral training classes. I have some behavior training for dogs to best understand your pet. As I am always seeking to further my studies. I have lead trained, potty trained, and offered basic training during my time of sitting. Do not hesitate to schedule a meet and greet. Be happy to meet ya! I do work full-time, but mostly from home. Pets need to be OK on their own without constant supervision and pets have to be playful and friendly with others. I have several pets of my own. I do separate dogs I pet sit from my dogs after playtime so each of them can rest. I do separate during eating times as well.

“Allyson was great. She sent loads of pictures of our elderly dog. She obviously had no trouble helping him up and down the ramp, and helping him get up from laying down. He's an old dog (age 17) so needed a little assistance and she was willing and able to do so. She judged what he could handle, as it was warm and he is an old husky, kept in good contact with us during her visits.”

About: I was raised on a ranch and have always loved and cared for animals. Friends and family members often trust their pups with me. I love to take the doggies outside to run around, then let them cuddle up with us on the couch. I am currently a stay at home mom. We have a little energetic dog so alot of out day revolves around her, adding another pup to play would just be a bonus. I have a fenced yard, which I let our dog out in whenever she asks. We dont crate our dog at night, but I am happy to do that for your pup if thats what they are use to. My 2 year old son and I are home most of the day every day.
