I will ensure your pet is safe, cared for, and loved while you’re gone! I will treat your pet like my own and keep you updated through plenty of picture updates. Why choose me? - Thorough communication 🗣️ - Playtime, attention, and affection - Upkeep your pet’s normal routine 🐾 - Respecting your home and your pets Currently I’m on summer break and have a flexible schedule through August 15th. My availability after mid August will be updated soon as my fall semester begins. Feel free to reach out with any questions, thank you!

I will go by whatever instructions you give me to ensure that your pet is able to continue their normal routine and taken care of so you have nothing to worry about!
“Averi is always reliable and quick to respond. She only had to cancel one time with us as she was attacked by another dog and needed to tend to her own health. She let us know as soon as it happened that she needed to cancel so we could rearrange.”


About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a home full of pets, including dogs, cats, and even a bunny. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I love getting to know each pet’s individual personality. I currently work in the service industry at a resturuant in South End, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having someone to keep them company, i’m happy to provide attentive, reliable care while you’re away. I work in the service industry at a resturuant in South End, so my schedule is flexible and varies from week to week. This allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on the week. I will always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. i’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other routines that help your pet feel comfortable. Every pet is unique, and i’ll provide patient, attentive care based on their individual needs. i’ll also treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, have been pet sitting for family and friends since I was young, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. In August 2025, my three-legged Dachshund became paralyzed after a spinal cord injury. He never regained feeling in his back legs, and for nearly 10 months I provided around the clock care to give him the best quality of life possible. I performed daily physical therapy, manually expressed his bladder and bowels, helped him eat, transported him to rehabilitation and acupuncture appointments, and adapted our home and routines to support his mobility. Although he had only one functioning leg, he continued to live a happy, love filled life until we had to say goodbye. That experience gave me extensive hands on experience caring for a disabled companion and deepened my love and understanding of animals. I have a special place in my heart for senior, disabled, and special needs furry friends, and I'm comfortable providing extra patience, medications, mobility assistance, and individualized care when needed. Since losing my dog, I have found myself with extra time and would love to spend it caring for other people's furry family members. I am self employed and work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of time with the animals in my care. I'm also very active and love going on walks, playing outside, or simply spending time cuddling on the couch, whatever makes your furry friend happiest. My goal is to make every companion feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. Because I'm self employed and work entirely from home, I have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home. This allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime instead of leaving your furry friend alone for long periods. I live in a quiet, pet friendly neighborhood with a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, sniff, and explore. Whether your companion loves to stay active or simply relax with someone nearby, I can provide a calm, comfortable environment where they'll feel right at home. Creating a safe, comfortable environment is my top priority. My home is located in a quiet neighborhood and features a large, fully fenced backyard with a 10-foot privacy fence, giving dogs plenty of room to safely explore, sniff, play, and relax. The yard also has plenty of shade, making it a comfortable place to spend time outdoors even on warmer days. Inside, I have pet gates to help manage spaces safely, along with toys, cozy beds, and designated areas for rest and relaxation. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I also provide private spaces where a furry friend can decompress and have some quiet time if they are feeling nervous, overwhelmed, or simply prefer their own space. My goal is to create a calm, low-stress environment where every companion feels safe, secure, and cared for throughout their stay.
About: I grew up with golden retrievers, playing a huge role in there care. I’ve also helped care for friends and neighbors dogs, so am familiar with all sizes and breeds. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving medications if needed, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I have very few hours of required class, especially for the next couple summer months, and can easily pop-in whenever your pet needs! Happy to work with you to find a schedule that works for your pet. I'm very reliabe and attentive and will keep your pets safety top priority! I will also take into account any specific needs for your dog.
“This was our first Rover walk for Coug. He can be nervous with new people, and Rachel was patient, kind, and understanding of his personality. She communicated well and made me feel comfortable knowing he was being cared for. I would happily book with Rachel again.”

About: I currently have an eight month old puppy and I also watch a four year-old dog weekly! I have a very flexible remote job so I’m always ready to help! I can help out whenever during the week & on weekends just let me know in advance and I’m happy to take your pet out for a nice walk or pop in! Ready to help walk your pup to get their exercise in or to just go the bathroom, whatever they need! I’m very careful to make sure they are always safe!

“Lindsey was a great dog walker for my two German shepherds who both have dog/animal reactivity and anxiety. She was extremely receptive to all my concerns and took all precautions needed to keep my dogs and others safe. In addition, she was kind, timely and communicative, all very important characteristics for me to trust my dogs with someone while I'm away. I will definitely use her services in the future.”
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors and friends’ dogs ever since I was a kid. Now surrounded by the lovely dog-friendly city of Charlotte, without a dog of my own, I wanted to offer my services and love for pets through Rover. I’ve watched very old dogs to my friend’s 2 year old Malinois/Shepard mix. I’m currently a remote worker with a very flexible schedule. I like to go for daily ‘brain break’ walks as I refer to them and would love to start walking dogs during so. There’s multiple trails, city and forest covered, around my apartment complex and a local dog park available if interested. I have a balcony as well that’s good for people and bird watching.
“Maria really goes above and beyond with communication, care, and cute photos!! She is a lifesaver and always makes sure my dog has everything she needs to be comfortable after her walks!! She’s also been super great with keeping consistency with walk training which is a huge help!”

About: Hi my name is Joseph! I grew up in a veterinary hospital being surrounded by all breeds and sizes of cats and dogs. I have 7+ years of pet sitting experience for NC State Vet Students and Faculty and currently work for a dog boarding and daycare facility in the Noda area. My background has given me hands-on experience with feeding, exercise, enrichment, and providing attentive compassionate care for every pet. I’m currently working Monday - Friday between 7am-11am (break) 2:30-7pm. On Saturday/Sunday the hours move around alittle but I remain to have a 3-4 hour mid day break for the opportunity to have midday checkups/care. My usual Check-in times when pet sitting have been 10-30 minutes before 6:30-7, 20-40 minutes between 11:30-2, and 20-30 minutes after 7:30. Depending on age, temper and health of the dog the visits can be rearranged for later or earlier visits if needed. With the circumstances of my apartment complex, I do in-house visit of my client instead of having the dog at my home. When arriving at my clients home, I like to first take the dog outside and make sure they use the bathroom. I will update the owner immediately if I see any issues with the pets stool (ie. Blood, Diarrhea, etc). After I like to feed depending on instructed time, or if no meal/ walk the dog around the owners yard or complex if possible. Before leaving I always make sure there is plenty of water and that at least one happy photo. Willing to administer medications in pill form. Also, will always follow clients instructions to a avoid any confusion or accidents.
“Hi Anthony-I appreciated you being available in short notice. And I’m grateful for the time you gave on Friday. I am going to cancel the bookings for this week though because the extra dog fee was more than I am used to paying for a 30 minute walk. It has nothing to do with you - you were great.”

“Bailey is on her 3rd walk with Taylor and she’s coming around from her shyness that exists around new humans :) Taylor had been fantastic in house access/walking instructions and has been a great communicator in each interaction we’ve had. Will continue to book! We are so pleased! Thank you Taylor!”

“Kimberly goes above and beyond! She is always trustworthy and takes great care of my pup when needed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for help with their dogs!”


“Amanda has been such an amazing friend to Cosmo. We moved to 4th ward last week and the change was stressful on the little guy. Amanda immediately established a rapport with him and they have great walks together. She is also very punctual and communicates well.”

“Kelsey was wonderful with our dogs! I can’t wait to work with her again. Our dogs loved her. She was very communicative and responded quickly to messages. Great experience!”

The median cost per walk for dog walking in Washington Heights is $20

I have used Cheyenne twice now for my little guy and he was so excited to see her when she arrived this last time. She is very sweet, gentle and obviously loves animals. She was also willing to accept a rather last-minute booking and showed up when rain was threatening!

Liz is absolutely amazing she very informative through my whole trip I felt like I was with my fur babies. She has this special kind of skill relating to my pets and actually getting to know them. I wouldn’t want no one else than her. She very attentive, kind, and caring if you’re going to choose anyone to care for your babies you definitely can’t miss with Liz. Thank you so much you did an excellent job.

We had a wonderful experience with Kaitlyn. She took great care of our dog and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos, and it was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Also she helped me very last minute which was incredible!

This was my first time using Rover and Anvesha was amazing! She exceeded my expectations. She’s passionate about dogs and is willing to go above and beyond for the well being of my dog. She was great at communicating which made this experience less anxious for me. We got so lucky with her! Thank you, i genuinely appreciate you Anvesha!
